No one is clear?

Ma Yingjiu, the current chairman of Kuo Ming Dang (Nationals Party), was investigated for corruption of the special administrative fee.

I heard this news yesterday.

I thought it was very stupid for Chen's advocates to do that because I believed in Ma. He was a senior politician although he looked young and handsome. He worked as Attorney General of Taiwan years ago. I thought he was more skillful in handling these problems, after all he was in charge of political power for many years, unlike Chen who was taking the power for only 6 years. It is imaginable for him to earn extra interests for him and his family when he seizes the power. But Ma, an old fox in politics, should not fall on such tiny matters.

But it proved that I was wrong. Ma admitted that his staff had used irrelevant invoices to claim the special fee. He did it in person or not, it doesn't matter now. His falling reveals one thing: no politician is clear if you really investigate them.

I was very disappointed.
