Taiwan. Referendum 2008
By Alex Kireev
Note that both questions were negatived due to inadequate turnout.
Question 3. Do you agree that the following principles should be followed to legislate a ‘Regulation for the Disposal of Properties Inappropriately Acquired by Political Parties’, in order to return such properties of the Kuomintang to the people?: Kuomintang’s and its associate organization’s properties – outside of party dues, political donations, and public subsidies – should be presumed inappropriately acquired and returned to the people. Those already liquidated, the party should compensate at market value. Question 4. Do you agree that legislation should be enacted to investigate the responsibility of leaders of the nation and their subordinates, when there is grave damage to the nation due to their wrongful intentions or grave failure in carrying out their duties? Further, do you agree that Commissions of Inquiry should be set up by the Legislative Yuan to investigate such matters; and that the departments of the government should co-operate fully without resistance, in order that the benefits of the people will be preserved? That the personnel criminally at fault should be punished and their illegal income be recovered?
