【國昌質詢】國防部放水不肖廠商 工程會修法再開後門|2026-01-05|交通委員會


The video primarily presents the following claims:

I. The Ministry of National Defense Covered Up for Unscrupulous Contractor Tatung Company and Lied to the Legislative Yuan:

  • Background: The military procured bulletproof fibers and bulletproof vests. Some contractors (Tatung PC, Tatung Company) were suspected of passing off inferior Chinese products as genuine, severely jeopardizing the safety of military personnel.
  • Detailed Claims:
    • Unfair Treatment of Contractors: Tatung PC, which won a bid of approximately NT$70 million, was immediately suspended for three years after the scandal was exposed. However, Tatung Company, which won a bid of approximately NT$245 million, has yet to be similarly suspended. It is questioned whether Tatung Company (大同公司) received special treatment due to its "strong political and business connections" or "powerful backing."
    • Ministry of National Defense (MoND) Lied About the Source of Media Information: A certain media outlet (Mirror Media) reported that Tatung Company was not suspended due to "mediation by the Public Construction Commission (PCC)" and "its name not being published in the Government Procurement Gazette." When a Legislator questioned the Ministry of National Defense, the MoND responded in writing, stating that this information "did not originate from this Ministry" and deemed it "fake news." However, it was later confirmed that MoND officials were indeed the source of the information provided to Mirror Media.
    • MoND Spreading Fake News: The Ministry of National Defense later claimed it was a "timing discrepancy," but the Legislator refuted this, emphasizing that there was no actual mediation by the Public Construction Commission. Therefore, the MoND not only deceived the Legislative Yuan but also spread "100% fake news" to the public, claiming the lack of suspension was due to mediation.
    • Questioning MoND and Media's Assistance in Cover-up: It is questioned whether the Ministry of National Defense and specific media outlets collaborated to "cover up for Tatung Company."
    • Lack of Disciplinary Action and Procrastination: Regarding the Ministry of National Defense's actions of lying and spreading fake news, no disciplinary action has been seen to date. They merely responded with "under review," being accused of procrastinating for over a year. The MoND is demanded to provide a written report detailing the disciplinary outcomes within two weeks.
    • Covering Up for and Protecting the Contractor: The Ministry of National Defense adopted a "procrastinate as much as possible, muddle through as much as possible" approach with Tatung Company, delaying the process until the statute of limitations for administrative penalties expired. This prevented Tatung Company's name from being published in the Government Procurement Gazette, thereby achieving the objective of covering up for and protecting an unscrupulous contractor.

II. Public Construction Commission's Proposed Amendment to Shorten the Statute of Limitations for Administrative Penalties May Open Another Backdoor for Unscrupulous Contractors:

  • Background: The Public Construction Commission (工程會) recently proposed a draft amendment to the Government Procurement Act for public review, intending to revise relevant regulations.
  • Detailed Claims:
    • Shortening the Statute of Limitations for Administrative Penalties: The Public Construction Commission plans to shorten the statute of limitations for administrative penalties for contractors (originally three years under the Administrative Penalty Act) to two years.
    • Questioning the Intent Behind the Amendment: It is questioned whether this amendment is intended to "increase leniency," making it easier for unscrupulous contractors to avoid being published in the Government Procurement Gazette due to the expiration of the statute of limitations, effectively "opening a backdoor" for them to escape.
    • Refuting the Reasons for the Amendment: The Public Construction Commission claims this move is to "prompt agencies to make decisions sooner." However, the Legislator cited the Ministry of National Defense's procrastination in the Tatung Company case as an example, pointing out that even with a time limit, agencies can still delay. Therefore, shortening the statute of limitations does not guarantee greater agency efficiency; instead, it might give agencies more excuses for leniency.
    • Taiwan People's Party Caucus's Stance: The Taiwan People's Party, TPP Caucus "absolutely opposes" shortening the statute of limitations for administrative penalties to two years.
