Deputy Minister of Education Yeh Bing-Cheng stated in the Legislative Yuan that he has not discussed 'transformative education' for seven years, emphasizing the need to first understand the underlying reasons behind educational issues before seeking innovation. He mentioned that reforms in the style of Wang Anshi, a Song dynasty politician, will not be successful, and that it is important to approach changes cautiously and innovatively. This discussion occurred during a special report on how higher education should operate, innovate, and enhance competitiveness under the trend of declining birth rates, initiated by the Legislative Yuan's Education and Culture Committee, responding to questions raised by lawmakers including KMT Party member Hung Meng-Kai. Yeh Bing-Cheng humorously acknowledged his 'rule-following' approach as Deputy Minister and expressed his commitment to legal compliance while also striving to innovate within legal boundaries, fostering communication with education groups and society at large.
