Controversy over Chunghwa Post, Wang Kwo-tsai as Acting Chair|物流中心風暴 交部次長代理郵政董座
The Chunghwa Post logistics park controversy continues to simmer. The government has already dismissed Chunghwa Post's chairperson and president, and named Political Deputy Transportation and Communications Minister Wang Kwo-tsai to serve as the acting chairperson. Wang was sworn in on May 17. I don't think there's anything to say, because there is really a lot that should be said. Chunghwa Post held an inauguration ceremony on May 17 to swear in its new chairperson, Political Deputy Transportation and Communications Minister Wang Kwo-tsai. He received the seal of Chunghwa Post from former Chairperson Louis Wei. Kwo previously served as the acting chairperson of Chunghwa Post from 2017 to 2018. With a mere one-year break, he returned to that same position on May 17. He (Louis Wei) ran around in a circle. He came up from behind, and is now passing the baton to me again, and I am accepting it from him again. (Chen Shian-juh) has completed his job for this stage. He wasn't in attendance today, and I hope he can take a good rest. All of the difficulties during this time will end today. Wang smiled as he described himself as a utility player. He also expressed his admiration for the work of former Chunghwa Post President Chen Shian-juh, and his hope that the controversies surrounding the company's new logistics park would come to an end. Chen, who previously spoke out against political interference, did not attend the ceremony. Prior to the ceremony, Wang convened a press conference with the chairperson of the Chunghwa Postal Workers' Union to provide clarification on the logistics park controversy. The only blemish is the so-called public welfare part. The entire bidding process was legal, but the spirit in which bids were invited did not conform to the policy objectives stated in the application of this NT$25.8 billion logistics park near A7 Station. The chairperson and president are government officials, so they had to take responsibility for this policy. We feel the government and the Executive Yuan are trampling on the reputation of the Chunghwa Postal Workers' Union. This is harmful to the entire country, society, and the people. The logistics park controversy has already resulted in the dismissal of Chunghwa Post's top two executives. Wang said the bidding process to lease storage units in the park was entirely legal, but it did not conform to the spirit of public welfare. He said he will sign the lease agreement with the bid winner, PChome, and urged the company Chairperson Hongzhi Zhan to take care of downstream companies after signing the contract. 中華郵政前董事長 魏健宏表示：「覺得沒什麼好說，因為真的要說的很多。」 中華郵政交接典禮上，交通部次長王國材從前董事長魏健宏接下印信，短短相隔一年，王國材再次回鍋，代理中華郵政董事長。 中華郵政代理董事長 王國材表示：「（魏健宏)他跑了一圈，從後面又跑來，又要把棒子拿給我，我又把它接下來。（陳憲着)階段性的任務結束，今天(陳憲着)他沒來，我也希望他休息一下，這段時間的風風雨雨，到今天就到此為止。」 笑稱自己是工具人，王國材也高度讚賞前總經理陳憲着，盼望郵政物流風波告一段落，但日前高喊政治介入的陳憲着，沒有現身交接。交接典禮前，王國材也連同郵政工會理事長召開記者會說明物流園區爭議。 中華郵政代理董事長 王國材表示：「唯一的這個瑕疵，就是所謂公益性的部分，它就是整個招標合法，但是它的招標精神，不符合當時申請這個258億，建設A7這個物流園區，原來的政策目標，董事長跟總經理是政務官，所以他們部分原因，就是為這個政策，來做一個負責。」 中華郵政工會理事長 吳文豐表示：「覺得政府我們的行政院啊，你對中華郵政工會的信譽，這樣糟蹋，對整個國家社會，老百姓也是一個傷害。」 郵政物流中心爭議，撼動高層異動，王國材強調招標過程合法，但也坦承不符合公益性，後續仍會依照第一順位，與PChome簽約也呼籲詹宏志承租後，能夠照顧更多下游業者。
