Chen Shui-bian Visits Taichung
(09/25/2008) (TVBS)



The "warmth-seeking tour" of former president Chen Shui-bian came to Taichung today, where there was an even bigger and more enthusiastic crowd than in southern Taiwan. Chen Shui-bian was particularly ecstatic. Although he had previously pleaded "If you love me, then don't hurt me by wanting me to run for the president again," he cited Ma Ying-jeou's example of announcing a run for the presidency on the day after a criminal indictment and said that this was viable. So will he make his announcement to run for the presidency on the day after his expected indictment over the state secret fees case?

The crowd chanted: "Go, Ah Bian! Go, Ah Bian!"

Even though this was not an election rally, the crowd was going wild. The venue was packed and cheers went on continuously. The "warmth-seeking tour" of Chen Shui-bian reached a crescendo here in Taichung.

Chen Shui-bian: "I am not afraid of being oppressed by the Kuomintang. I am willing to go to jail again on behalf of the 23 million Taiwanese people. There have not been any political prisoners for a long time. Ah Bian is willing to become the first political prison under the rule of Mr. Ma's Kuomintang. I am willing to sacrifice myself in order to build an independent Taiwan nation."

Chen Shui-bian: "On the night of his indictment for graft over the special fees, Ma Ying-jeou announced that he was a candidate for the presidency. He said that he would continue to run for the presidency all the way. Right or not?" The crowd: "Right!" Chen Shui-bian: "On the day when I am indicted for graft over the state secret fees, should I announce that I will run against Mr. Ma for the 2012 presidency all the way?"

Chen Shui-bian got more and more excited as he said: "If the Democratic Progressive Party is to be strong again, it has to be led by someone. If no one can lead, Ah Bian is willing to lead. Is that okay?"

In Taichung today, Chen Shui-bian was interviewed on radio. Earlier this morning, the special investigators had raided twenty-seven places including Chen's office, his residence and the homes of his children and assistants. Chen complained that the judiciary was unfair.

Concerning the question of whether his wife Wu Shu-jen should have to show up for her court trial, he said: "Who is going to be responsible if she should lapse into a vegetative state?" He said: "Mr. Ma Ying-jeou says that the judiciary is independent. Do you believe it?"

In related news, the Presidential Office treasurer Chen Cheng-hui for Chen Shui-bian was held under detention with no visiting rights today. The judge deemed that she was involved in graft, forgery of document and money laundering. The prosecutors had seized her computer and recovered deleted files which showed that she transferred state secret fees to the account of the Hong Kong bank accounts of the family members of Tsai Mei-li (who is a classmate and good friend of Chen Shui-bian's wife Wu Shu-jen). Even if Chen Cheng-hui was only carrying out the orders from her boss, she is equally guilty. The reports were that Chen Cheng-hui was emotionally distressed at the court hearing.


扁家全淪陷!扁女涉內線交易 恐有牢獄之災


"God Will Punish You!"
(09/25/2008) (China Review News)

This issue of reports that the prosecutors found ex-president Chen Shui-bian's daughter Chen Hsin-yu had wired money over the figurehead accounts of the ex-president's wife Wu Shu-jen's classmate and family for the purpose of insider stock trading. The modus operandi was identical to that used by Chen Hsin-yu's husband Chao Chien-ming. With this development, this means that the entire family (Chen and his wife; his son and daughter-in-law; his daughter and son-in-law) are all in legal trouble for graft, money laundering, tax evasion and insider trading.

The dumbest part of this whole story was that NT$34 million flowed from Chen Hsin-yu's account to the various figurehead accounts which then routed them to a single account. On the same day, Chen Shui-bian's former Presidential Office secretary-general Chen Che-nan (now serving jail time) had used several of his own figurehead accounts to route NT$34 million to that very same account. The money in that account was then used to purchase 4 million shares at NT$17 per share.

This information was previously known to investigators when Chen Shui-bian was still president. The current investigators have determined that the previous investigators deliberately declined to pursue the case.

一直被排除在陳水扁家族洗錢醜聞之外的陳幸妤,將因為涉嫌內線交易,遭特偵組約談。最新一期臺灣《壹週刊》報導,檢調高層透露,特偵組重查燁聯及泰偉電子炒股案,發現2003年陳幸妤曾匯錢給吳淑珍的人頭帳戶蔡美利家族,購買燁聯及泰偉股票。這顯示在檢方追查扁家弊案過程,扁家除年幼的第三代,已全數淪陷。

  特偵組下一步,10月間將針對內線交易這部分案情重啟調查,屆時陳幸妤將很難脫身,甚至連出國避風頭的機會都會遭到剝奪。更糟的是,還可能會有牢獄之災纏身,極有可能淪為和趙建銘一樣的下場。

  扁家在貪污洗錢案爆發後,幾已成為犯罪家庭,除了陳幸妤和未成年的第三代外,都已身陷刑事罪的漩渦當中,可是隨著案情不斷發展,和舊案的重查,陳幸妤也躲不過這波醜聞的泥淖。

  在檢調的追查下更發現,陳幸妤就是2003年9月燁聯內線交易案的主嫌,與夫婿趙建銘在2005年更使用相同的手法染指台開,夫妻二人可能都會因為內線交易案,而吃上重罪。

  據檢調高層人士透露,燁聯案在2003年9月12日發生,陳幸妤的帳戶有異常的資金流動,先將大筆資金移到林笑容的帳戶中,在從林笑容的戶頭分別轉往吳淑珍的大學同學蔡美利、蔡的弟弟蔡銘哲的帳戶中。當天,由蔡銘傑、陳慧娟和蔡銘哲三人分別由天母、士林的銀行戶頭匯出一大筆錢,在加上蔡美利的員工陳文彥的帳戶也匯出一筆錢,這4個帳戶的錢,全部都集結在土地銀行岡山分行的聯綱重工的戶頭內,總金額高達3400萬元。

  這筆錢是扁家透過洽特定人的方式,像聯綱重工以每股17元,吃下所持有的200萬燁聯股票。由於上櫃的燁聯和上市的燁興計畫合併,合併後仍稱燁聯,這對燁聯是大利多;再加上聯綱重工是中鋼轉投資,是否賣掉手中持股,政府可以控制,這也讓檢調懷疑,其中有內線交易或圖利之嫌。

  儘管事後燁聯與燁興合併不成,但2006年6、7月間,林笑容層匯給陳幸妤近4000萬元鉅款,雖然林笑容買下陳幸妤位於杭州南路的房子,該房產是1997年吳淑珍“賣給”陳幸妤的,但檢調懷疑,當時陳幸妤年僅19歲,哪有能力買下當時市值近2000萬的房子。

  再加上林笑容後來用鉅款購屋,檢調懷疑這筆金流,很可能就是補償扁家因合併案不成、買股所造成的損失,交易只是虛晃一招,“買穩贏的,輸了還要業者負責價差損失。”專案小組就這樣分析。只是房屋交易如果沒有造假,特偵組要辦到陳幸妤,還要再補強證據才行。

  無獨有偶,只要觀察聯綱重工當天戶頭,會覺得異常忙碌的,除了扁家大費周章匯錢過來,還有一個扁系愛將、“總統府”前副秘書長陳哲男,也透過他創辦的“番薯園文教基金會”員工蘇昱丞、兒子陳其堯友人的太太黃秋霞、及黃的外甥林家賢,在同一天也共匯進了3400萬元,到聯綱重工同一個戶頭,採用的也是用洽特定持有人的模式,以每股17元,吃下200萬股的燁聯股票。

  扁家和陳哲男家選在同一天,不從公開市場上買進燁聯,這個方式,與後來趙建銘在台開案中運用的模式相同,只是操作的物件改由聯綱重工的燁聯股票,換成向彰化銀行洽買台開股票;而操盤的戶頭從陳幸妤交棒給趙建銘罷了。

  根據檢調內部人士表示,當年在偵查燁聯案時,有查到陳幸妤戶頭裡的錢透過人頭戶買燁聯,卻因為種種因素而停止追查;而聯綱重工前董事長、現任燁聯總經理吳林茂,當時應訊指出,聯綱重工賣燁聯是為了資金周轉使然;而屬於同一集團的燁宏協理黃景聰及集團資金管理部、燁聯監察人張天吉,分別介紹二個人購買;經檢調後來查出,黃景聰介紹陳哲男,而張天吉則引入扁家。

  當時,檢調也找來燁聯集團負責人林義守,他承認在2003年9月曾到“總統府”和陳哲男會面,不過林義守否認和陳哲男有談過燁聯股票的問題,林義守也說,不知道陳其堯後來有向聯綱重工買燁聯股票的事情。

  令人懷疑的是,此案就在陳哲男、林義守否認有內線交易問題後,就草草結案。更扯的是,檢調當初對蔡銘哲、蔡銘傑、陳慧娟等人也向聯綱重工買股票一事,更是虛晃一招就了事,根本沒有偵辦決心。

  《壹週刊》報導指出,直到今年8月29日,特偵組在傳訊蔡銘哲時,檢察官珍對蔡的證券帳戶做進一步比對時,才發現過去檢調辦案是刻意放水,當特偵組訊問蔡相關特定幾檔股票交易時,為什麼人在國外,而國內的帳戶卻交易次數和交易額都這麼大,戶頭進出又如此頻繁。

  蔡銘傑對於檢察官的偵訊則一直保持沉默,由蔡的帳戶資料,特偵組才發現過去的調查資料,從蔡家上溯林笑容到陳幸妤就停止,而在股票出脫後,資金也是由蔡家轉到林笑容,再匯到陳幸妤就停止。

What does Chen Hsin-yu have to say for herself?

(TVBS)


This morning, investigators from the prosecutor's office searched more than twenty locations, including the homes of the family members of Chen Shui-bian and their associates. Chen Hsin-yu showed up late for work.

She said: "Why don't they go after Ma Wei-chung's account? The prosecutors never called her in for interrogation. Why? You tell me why?"

Reporter: "Why did you into insider trading?"

Chen Hsin-yu: "I did not engage in insider trading. You are making up these charges. You can smear my name and you can twist my character. But you cannot fool God. God will watch demons like you from Heaven, and He will know how to punish you."
