Mainland Affairs Council: Taiwanese to join the Communist Party will be brought to justice

A list of 1.95m registered Members of the Communist Party has been leaked and several internationally renowned companies have been infiltrated, raising alarms about communist Party infiltration. After the American media sorted out the list, it was found that Taiwan enterprises, such as Formosa Plastics Group, the leading petrochemical company in Taiwan, and Taida Power, an electronics factory, also had Party branches. The Mainland Affairs Council said On Monday that it will pay close attention to the issue that employees in Taiwan companies have the status of members of the Communist Party of China (CPC). According to cross-strait regulations, Taiwanese are not allowed to be members of the CPC, the communist Party of China (CPC), the communist Party of China (CPC), the government and the military.

Several western media outlets, including The Mail on Sunday in The UK and The Australian, have recently reported that 1.95 million members of The Communist Party have had their personal data leaked, and that at least 10 countries have employed Party members in Consulates, banks, pharmaceutical factories and foreign universities in Shanghai.

Radio Free Asia combed through the list and found that Taiwan’s leading companies, such as Formosa Plastics Group and The electronics giant Delta Power, also have Communist Party branches.

There are 255 members on the list. Only 3 of them have high school education, and the others have university or master or doctor degree or above.

Formosa Plastics Corporation of Taiwan Petrochemical Industry Group also has a “Vietnam Formosa plastics project Party branch” with a list of 25 people.

On December 17, mainland affairs council deputy chairman loletta lee said at a regular press conference, “is not only for Taiwanese businessmen, for other international and other foreign investors, and also have doubts, because this is involve intervention enterprise autonomy, and corporate governance, and damage the whole liberal economic operation, such regulations, we are think is wrong.”

She stressed that article 33 of the cross-Straits regulations stipulates that People in Taiwan cannot hold posts or be members of the COMMUNIST Party of China (CPC). If Chinese people become a Member of the Communist Party, it is inconsistent with the provisions of the law, if there is a relevant evidence found, will be handled in accordance with the law, calling on Chinese people to pay attention to the relevant provisions, “be careful not to touch the law”.

In addition to requiring investors to invest nt $6 million and stay in Hong Kong for at least one year, investors from Hong Kong and Macao must operate their investment enterprises for at least three years and employ at least two Taiwanese employees. Otherwise, the government has the right to confiscate the approved passports.

After more than six months on the road, the regulations have deterred many would-be immigrants. Regarding this matter, the Mainland Affairs Council reiterated on the same day that the move is in response to the “fake investment, real immigration” situation, the implementation of real investment.

Ms Li said the ministry wanted to attract real investment migrants, so rather than raising the bar, it would ensure that those who wanted investment migrants did not “use fake means to withdraw money after obtaining identity cards”.

The Mainland Affairs Council said it would work out measures to strengthen the administration of Chinese-funded investment in Taiwan, including amending the Regulations on Hong Kong and Macao, as well as the regulations on mainland investment in Taiwan.
