Taipei's Ambassador to the U.S., Yu Dawei, faced accusations of misusing public funds by purchasing extravagant items including a luxury car, furniture, and household supplies totaling around NT$8 million. Legislator Huang Kuo-chang requested the list of items purchased using public funds since Yu took office, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs responded with a classified label, sparking criticism for the unnecessary secrecy regarding potential national defense or diplomatic secrets. The legislator called for accountability and oversight, questioning the need for secrecy and drawing parallels with past incidents of government transparency.
