Allegations haunt hospital manager

CORRUPTION PRACTICES Two DPP legislators have accused Chang Mau-song of the illegal use of an NT$300 million fund and other financial irregularities

The Shihlin District Court immediately approved Chou's request to ban Chang and Yi from traveling outside the country on April 23. However, by that time Yi had already fled to China.

Prosecutors have not yet filed a request to detain Chang, much to the annoyance of Lee and Chiang.

Lee and Chiang held another press conference at the Legislative Yuan yesterday morning and said that the Cabinet's Vocational Assistance Commission for Retired Servicemen, the Ministry of National Defense and prosecutors owed the public a clear explanation over the investigation.

"Obviously, Yi fled on purpose. Why haven't prosecutors issued a warrant for his arrest?" Lee said.

Lee said that both the commission and defense ministry are close to the hospital and it is impossible that none of the officials at these two government offices know nothing about Chang's alleged embezzlement.

In addition, the retired serviceman commission is the superior government office of the hospital. "Why did it approve Chang's resignation without any hesitation? After all, Chang is a famous cardiologist with a good reputation. It is not logical, is it?" Lee said.
