non-partisanship stipulations of Article 5-1 結果共1筆

The National Communications Commission (NCC) is investigating whether the newly announced vice-presidential candidate of the Kuomintang (KMT), Jaw Shaw-kong, has violated non-partisanship regulations. Jaw, who is the chairman of the Broadcasting Corporation of China (BCC) and also hosts programs on BCC and TVBS, holds shares in BCC. The NCC will review Jaw’s commitments made during the 2007 acquisition of shares in BCC to ensure that his management is not influenced by party politics or military affairs. The commission will also examine the amendment clauses related to this year’s changes in the board of directors and supervisors. Additionally, NCC intends to inspect whether TVBS’s self-regulatory mechanisms are being followed, particularly with regard to political show hosts holding party or public office positions. TVBS has announced that they will replace Jaw as the host of related programs in order to uphold media neutrality, objectivity, and fairness.
