The former deputy director general of Sanlih E-Television, Kung Mei-Fu, resigned following the accusations that his son, Kung Yi-Ting, drugged and sexually attacked the Taiwanese actress Chiang Tsu-ping. The scandal has shaken the Taiwan entertainment industry and pushed the government’s requests for an in -depth investigation to safeguard the rights of the victims.
In an official declaration, Kung Mei-Fu said: “The accident involving my son has aroused controversy and public debates, washing resources and creating social disorders. I feel deeply remorse, especially for the damage caused Sanlih e-telvision. As a long -standing employee who received the company’s trust and support, I am ashamed that family issues have damaged the organization. I voluntarily resign to assume responsibility and I sincerely apologize and I express my gratitude Sanlih e-telvision. “
Kung recognized his role as a father: “I cannot escape responsibility. I have to face what my son has done. We have entrusted a lawyer the full authority and the judicial authorities will manage the question according to the law to discover the truth”.
However, online reactions criticized the apologies as vague and insinte. A dear friend of chiang tsu-ping wrote on threads: “What matters most is sincerity. Vile and immoral behavior cannot be swept away. Paradise is looking at. Is it so difficult to apologize sincerely?” The friend also claimed to have seen the Kung family visit the temples in Tamsui, questioning their real intentions: “Prayer will not erase evil. Help your family in this way is against morality.”
The case continues to dominate the public speech while citizens await the result of the investigations. On September 9, the municipal councilor of Taipei Tseng Hsien -ing urged the authorities to act quickly and close the systemic gaps to guarantee the victims to receive timely protection.
Taipei’s Department of Labor confirmed that he is contacting Sanlih e-telvision To check the work ties. If the accused was an employee and the accident occurred during the work, the issuer would be required to start an internal investigation pursuant to the law on gender equality in Employment Act. The company must also adopt corrective measures, including prevention, consultancy, medical assistance, psychological support and social assistance services for the victim.
The accusations emerged when Chiang Tsu-ping revealed that he had been drugged and attacked by Kung Yi-Gting. He also said that many other members of the female staff had been harassed by him, intensifying the impact of the scandal.
