In August, the school’s board of directors declared a salary cut, which led to the dismissal of two board members: Wang Chao-ching (王昭卿), who doubled as the school’s dean, and Chen Tsung-yen (陳宗彥), the deputy minister of the interior. Minister of Education Pan Wen-chung (潘文忠) told reporters yesterday that he and K-12 Education Administration Director-General Peng Fu-yuan (彭富源) agreed to dispatch a task force to the school as soon as possible. The ministry sent a K-12 Education Administration official to the school after receiving Tai’s confirmation yesterday morning. The school only has NT$10 million on hand, which is not enough to cover personnel costs for one month, Tai said. “We hope the K-12 Education Administration will try to understand the school’s situation from all angles,” Tai said.
