In Taoyuan, a man surnamed Wang was fined 7,000 New Taiwan Dollars for openly insulting a doctor at a late-night visit to the LinKou Chang Gung Hospital emergency room in November last year. The man lost his temper due to the long wait and hurled insults at the on-duty doctor, resulting in a court case where he was found guilty of public insult. The court determined that his words were disrespectful and seriously harmed the doctor’s social reputation, leading to the fine. The man has the option to appeal the decision.
