Control yuan, taiwan | 90th Anniversary Special Issue English Edition Released: CY Committed to International

To record the important historical facts about the progress of Taiwan’s supervisory system and human rights, the Control Yuan (CY) issued the CY 90th Anniversary Special Issue in 2021. After almost a year of effort, the English edition of the Special Issue was finally launched on August 9, 2022, in a demonstration of the CY’s ongoing commitment to working with the international community.

In her speech, CY President Chen Chu said that with the changes of the times and the development of democracy and human rights in Taiwan, the CY must keep pace with the times in the face of emerging social and public issues, from clarifying the rule of officials and rectifying official discipline to actively overseeing the government, promoting good governance, and protecting human rights.

President Chen also thanked the CY members and staff for their hard work for the past two years, observing the pulse of the society and listening to the voices of the people, taking into account human rights during anti-pandemic efforts, safeguarding local and international labor rights, promoting children’s rights, strengthening public safety, and taking petitions from the public. Looking ahead, the CY will take suggestions from all parties and improve itself in all regards to assist the normal development of the country and promote good governance.

As the CY and National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) have become more connected with the world, the CY has had more international exchanges. The release of the English edition of the 90th Anniversary Special Issue will be invaluable in boosting the CY’s international visibility and help the world understand Taiwan’s supervisory system and the efforts the nation is making to protect human rights. The CY also aims to promote international exchanges and cooperation and to show the world Taiwan is a committed global partner in the fight for democracy and human rights.

CY Secretary-General Judy, Fu-meei Ju noted that the English edition was digitized and uploaded to the Internet. In the post-pandemic era, the CY will anticipate more frequent international exchanges, built on this solid foundation, helping countries around the world better understand Taiwan’s supervisory organ, its operations, and the current status of human rights protection efforts. Under the leadership of President Chen, the CY will continue to improve in its various endeavors, reaching out to the world while remaining firmly rooted in Taiwan.
