[Reporter Hsieh Junlin/Taipei Report] In response to KMT legislator Wang Hongwei’s accusation that Executive Premier Chen Chien-jen’s paper was allegedly plagiarized, DPP legislator Wang Dingyu said that during the New Year we should say good things, “We would rather believe that Wang Hongwei did not run away, that there was no Maliciously attacking Dean Chen, she just doesn't know what academic research is, she just doesn't understand the investigation report of the National Taiwan University Fellowship, she just doesn't know how to google, that's why she makes absurd and false accusations against Dean Chen for academic plagiarism .”

Wang Dingyu pointed out that in 2006, a physician from National Taiwan University was the first author of this paper. Regarding his research, he submitted it to the famous journal "Cancer" at that time, and it was found that a paragraph of English in it came from another article, but he did not rewrite or Putting quotation marks or citing the source, so it is listed as a defect.

The investigation report of the National Taiwan University Ethics Association found that although this defect was unintentional, apparently unintentional, and not major, he was still punished and the second and third co-authors were notified by the way.

Wang Dingyu emphasized that it is the responsibility of the first author in academic research to determine whether the citation text is rewritten and whether the format is appropriate. It has nothing to do with the matter, and the first author, a doctor from National Taiwan University, did not intend to give appropriate punishment. After this article was revised in 2006, the journal "Cancer" published it as usual in 2007. So if this is a major plagiarism case, how can a well-known journal still publish it? Continue to publish the paper.

Wang Dingyu said, so this thesis report, according to the investigation report of the National Taiwan University Ethics Association, according to the later publication of the "Cancer" journal, and the basic norms of academic research, Chen Jianren has nothing to do with plagiarism. It is also considered a non-major flaw, an unintentional mistake.

Therefore, Wang Dingyu said that Wang Hongwei or the Kuomintang people made this a heinous crime and called it plagiarism. We believe that human nature is good. They just don’t know Google or academic research. That's why such ridiculous accusations are made.

Wang Dingyu emphasized that Chen Jianren's status in academia is very lofty and he has made great contributions. If you read this investigation report carefully, it is just Wang Hongwei's repeated oolong revelations and oolong accusations.
