Amid frenzy over Apache controversy, defense minister keeps his job (2015/04/09)
Defense
Minister Gao Guang-chi tendered his resignation over the Apache
scandal, but he was kept on by the president to deal with lingering
problems in the military. The Defense Ministry said it was considering
amendments to stiffen penalties for servicemen who commit ethical
violations.
Appearing at the Legislature to report on the Apache
incident, Defense Minister Gao once again offered a public apology. A
day earlier, he tendered his resignation to the president, but it was
not accepted. Gao Guang-chi Defense Minister The president
hoped that I would focus on this situation and get to the bottom of it.
As for following up on military discipline, dealing with security
issues and our troops’ morale and maintaining our combat capabilities,
he hoped I would see those jobs through to the end.
Apache pilot
Lao Nai-cheng not only gave a big group a tour of the advanced chopper,
he wore the chopper’s helmet to a party. Legislators worried secrets may
have been leaked, but the defense minister said that was not the case.
Gao Guang-chi Defense Minister The
“helmet” has to be connected to power or rely on data entered by the
helicopter to be turned on, to have a signal and to transmit signals.
Despite
his misconduct, the pilot will still be able to collect retirement
benefits, which many feel is wrong. The Defense Ministry said it is
considering revisions that would require servicemen expelled for ethical
reasons to reimburse funds spent on their education and have their
retirement benefits reduced or revoked.

國防部修法 遭記2大過擬砍退休俸
國防部長高廣圻來到立法院針對阿帕契事件報告,他表示向總統請辭被慰留,目前會先盡力完成整飭軍紀目標。國防部也在積極修法,未來國軍要是被記兩大過,被評估不適合服役者,可能會剝除退休俸,還得賠償國家公費。
來到立法院報告阿帕契風紀事件,國防部長高廣圻再度跟國人道歉,前一天,他更是到總統府表達辭意,但被馬總統慰留。
[[國防部長 高廣圻]]
“總統期勉我要針對這件事情,一定要把它查清楚,針對後續的軍紀,還有一些保防安全,還有我們部隊的士氣,還有我們的戰力的維持,希望我能夠把這些工作完全做好”
勞乃成除了帶團參訪軍營,還帶阿帕契頭盔出營跑趴,立委要問擔心洩密,國防部強調,沒有這樣的問題。
[[國防部長 高廣圻]]
“(頭盔)它一定要有通電,或靠機上的一些資料輸入,它才有訊號,才能開機,才有訊號的傳輸”
針對勞乃成還能領退休俸,引發社會不滿。國防部表示已經研議修法,未來因品德操守等因素,遭到汰除的國軍,需賠償當初公費深造、進修的經費,也可以剝奪或減少退休俸。
