All signs of judicial reform are gone. Prosecutors might be self-restricting (¦Û§Ú­­ÁY) themselves depending who the suspect is (Varies from person to person).  The variables are too big for us to believe.  Many judges and prosecutors transfer their job to be a lawyer, rising the question that - is judging or investigation working well ? The current judges and prosecutors are their juniors, the field of judiciary still "respect" the ethics.  In today's Taiwan, the clients usually do not ask which lawyer is more capable or more experienced, but ask whether or not the lawyer is familiar with judges and prosecutors. They are all talking about relationships and connections! Taiwan's judicial reform will never work !   ¸ê²`´CÅé¤H§d°ê´É

The United Daily,  2-26-2019:  National Chung Cheng university's survey shows that Judicial reform failed to satisfy more than 80% Taiwanese , the public trust on Taiwan judiciary is down to about 20%.  ¡@ The Liberty Times, head-page, The China Times, head-page, 12-8-2018:  Taiwanese P.M. (¿à²M¼w):  Taiwan has not made significant progress on judicial reform, which is roiling with public discontent, that's one cause of ruling party's defeat in elections.    USA Country Reports on Human Rights practices,   4-20-2018:¡´the justice ministry was insufficiently independent and conducted politically motivated investigations of politicians.   The United Daily,  10-31-2018 :  The Judicial Dept. (ªk°È³¡) took the lead to violate the laws.   The United Daily,  10-23-2018:  The independence of prosecutors has still been questioned ...    UDN 2-13-2018: the progress report of judicial reform by Taiwan's Minister of Judiciary and secretary of Ministry of Justice  ― Public trust in judges is always low, the protection mechanism of lawsuit right is still not good enough.     The United Daily,  2-27-2018: Taipei mayor Ko said that Taiwan's jail and prison are good only for those have no connections at all.     Apple Daily, opinion, 3-14-2018 : Survey <2017¥xÆWªÀ·|«H¥ô½Õ¬d> shows that Taiwan judicial official's / law enforcement officer's public trust is the second last.    FTV, 7-26-2018: Public trust in judges is less than 16%.  

For a long time, judicial system (prosecutors, judges) was one of "corrupt"/"extremely corrupt" institutions in Taiwan ―― commentators questioned the impartiality (e.g., Non-external intervention of the judiciary, fair trials) of Taiwan's prosecutors and judges,  National Chung Cheng university's survey (head-page of the Liberty Times, 2-23-2016) found: nearly 80% Taiwanese people don't believe the impartiality of Taiwan's prosecutors, and public trust on Taiwan judiciary system keeps falling down in the past 8 years.  Besides, Taiwan already turned to a "privacy hell" because prosecutors (and police) ignore Taiwanese human rights and Taiwan Constitution to access Taiwanese people communication records......?! (see below)       Local media Apple Daily, Liberty Times etc (11-30-2016): Taiwan president Tsai Ing-wen pronounced a death penalty on Taiwan's Justice system, Tsai also criticized (5-20-2016) that Taiwanese people don't trust the justice.   The deputy dean of Law School, National Cheng-Chi University, comments 5-2015) that the standard of judgments on the same matters varies from person to person all the time is the reason why Taiwanese people do not trust Taiwan's judiciary.

 The judicial system suffered from corruption, and that the impartiality of judges and prosecutors involved in high-profile and politically sensitive cases had been questioned.

The constitution provides for an independent judiciary; however, the judicial system suffered from some corruption. Although the authorities made efforts to eliminate corruption and diminish political influence in the judiciary, some residual problems remained. During the year judicial reform advocates pressed for greater public accountability, reforms of the personnel system, and other procedural reforms. Some political commentators and academics also publicly questioned the impartiality of judges and prosecutors involved in high-profile and politically sensitive cases.

The opposition DPP frequently raised the issue of judicial impartiality, citing 39 cases of DPP members, often prominent local and national officials, subjected to allegedly politically motivated investigations, arrests, and detentions.

In September, Justice Minister Tseng Yung-fu resigned and the KMT revoked Legislative Yuan Speaker Wang Jin-Pyng¡¦s party membership for allegedly intervening in a legal case on behalf of opposition DPP legislator Ker Chien-ming (see section 1.f.). Wang subsequently filed a civil lawsuit against the KMT, and the court approved his request for an injunction of the KMT¡¦s decision to revoke his party membership. The case continued at the end of the year.

The Judges Act, which established a judge evaluation committee in 2012, has been fully implemented. Nearly 100 individual reports of incompetence in the judiciary have been reported to authorities. One case resulted in a one-year suspension for a sitting judge. Civil society groups criticized the lack of action on the part of the judge evaluation committee.

The 2009 trial of former president Chen Shui-bian and his wife Wu Shu-jen heightened public scrutiny of pre-indictment and pretrial detention, prosecutorial leaks, other possible prosecutorial misconduct, and transparency in judicial procedures.

 The article under the theme of ¡]Corruption in Taiwan--Confirming the worst suspicions¡^ reported : 

 Three high-court judges and a prosecutor had been detained amid allegations that they took bribes to fix the outcome of a high-profile case, has brought public outrage to boiling point.

 The case is Taiwan¡¦s biggest judicial-corruption scandal in over a decade.

¡§The significance of this case is that it makes all the rumours a reality,¡¨

 The country's president, announced the formation of a new commission to battle corruption and vote-buying.

 Such talk is ... drawing comparisons to Singapore¡¦s Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau and Hong Kong¡¦s Independent Commission Against Corruption. But, unlike those bodies, the    Taiwanese commission will not report directly to the president, but only to the justice ministry, where tangled bureaucracy and civil servants who are deferential to their political bosses could limit action.

 In any case, complains the opposition Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), and various experts, such a commission will be toothless as long as it is nearly impossible to sack bad judges and prosecutors. An act calling for such a mechanism has long been stalled in parliament.

"Prosecutors should remain neutral and independent ... but the accused rushed to brief the president who was not involved in the case to provide information of an ongoing probe in violation of the laws," the Taipei district prosecutor's office said in a statement.  The information was obtained by a wiretap on opposition Democratic Progressive Party lawmaker Ker Chien-ming's phone, which prosecutors have insisted was legal.

However, the DPP has compared it to the Watergate scandal in the United States which resulted in the resignation of then-president Richard Nixon in 1974 -- something they have now insisted Ma must do....
