In this regard, former KMT deputy secretary-general Zhang Yaping said today (1st): “The special child in this report is my child.”

According to media reports, the student was verbally ridiculed and humiliated by the instructor, which also caused ostracism from his classmates.

With no way to seek help, the parents had no choice but to lodge a complaint with the Taipei City Government Education Bureau, which then launched an emergency investigation.
