Controversy Arises as DPP Legislators Allegedly Use Public Transport for Dinner; Wu Si-Yao Responds to 'Irregular Use'

The recent allegations that DPP legislators used public official vehicles for a group dinner at a popular hot pot restaurant on January 10 have drawn public attention. Legislator Wu Si-Yao clarified that she took a taxi to the restaurant and shared a ride back with other legislators.
Reports indicate that multiple legislators participated in this dinner, leading to public discontent. Citizens argue that public transport should be reserved for official duties rather than private events. Regarding the usage regulations, legislators stated that their actions were in compliance with current rules.
Other legislators noted that the issue of public transport is not exclusive to the DPP, as members of the Kuomintang (KMT) have also been accused of similar conduct. Legislator Lin Chu-Yin highlighted instances where KMT legislators utilized official vehicles for social gatherings, emphasizing the necessity and commonality of such usage.
In conclusion, DPP legislators have called for further discussions with Han Kuo-Yu regarding the proper use of public transport, expressing their willingness to engage in deeper conversations on the matter to ensure improvements moving forward.
