Last year, the Taiwanese entertainment industry launched a sensational “Me Too” movement. Many artists were shot down following being accused. Victims’ rights seemed to have improved, but this trend did not seem to be implemented in ordinary people’s lives. A female congressman from Yunlin She hired her younger sister Enen (pseudonym, 44 years old) as her secretary. When the two sisters attended a folks wedding banquet before the Chinese New Year, Enen was sexually harassed by someone in the restaurant. However, she felt very stressed during the reporting process. Even the family defense officer misled her. Enen decided to stand up Come out and tell the truth, hoping to awaken the public’s attention to sexual harassment cases.

“I didn’t expect that Me too would have such a quarrel last year, and someone would dare to do this to me.” Enen recalled that she accompanied her sister to a folks wedding banquet on January 27 this year. Because it was close to the New Year and there were many schedules, the two of them arrived when they arrived. Already late, my sister hurriedly entered the restaurant to greet the newlyweds. She originally wanted to follow, but was stopped by the chairman of the Police Alumni Association named Wu.

Enen mentioned that there were regarding 7 or 8 people at the door of the restaurant at that time, including Chen Ruijin, deputy chief of the Yunlin County Police Department. Chairman Wu introduced her to the Waterfowl Industry Promotion Association of the Republic of China, known as the “Goose King” Chairman Wu Xiangbin (58 years old), and Wu Xiangbin is also the director of the Taixi Police Alumni Association office. He has a good relationship with the police community and police friends. He originally thought it was just a mutual acquaintance between fellow villagers, but Wu Xiangbin took the opportunity of shaking hands to “move on”.

“I might feel his nails moving in the palm of my hand. He kept trying to touch me following I pulled my hand away.” Eun-en said that while shaking hands, Wu Xiangbin kept looking her up and down, teasingly asking her regarding her relationship with her sister. “Same father and mother” or “half father and mother”, during this period, the hand kept approaching her, touching her upper arm to shoulder and chest once more, but she finally dodged it once more.

Enen was already unhappy following being touched and teased inappropriately and did not want to answer any of Wu Xiangbin’s questions. Chen Ruijin, Chairman Wu and others did not try to help her out. Wu Xiangbin eventually became angry and taunted Enen, “You old man” Dad didn’t marry many wives.” En En was able to escape in the end by following a member of parliament.

After leaving the restaurant, the disgusting feeling still lingered on Enen. She decided to return to the restaurant the next day to collect the surveillance footage and leave evidence. The restaurant staff expressed sympathy following hearing regarding her experience, but at the same time following seeing the footage There was a moment of silence.

“Those aunties all said, sister, don’t worry, he is like this following drinking.” Enen mentioned that Wu Xiangbin is a big customer of the local restaurant. He always likes to “do everything” following drinking, and even does not even serve the dishes or the aunt. Even serving Asang, these hard-working honest people often dare not speak up and can only swallow their grievances silently. Therefore, she decided to file a lawsuit to seek justice. Unexpectedly, she was constantly lobbied to withdraw the lawsuit. Even the family defense officer used specious arguments to mislead her to the incorrect appeal channel.

Wu Xiangbin, who was accused of sexual harassment, said that the complaint was the woman’s rights and freedom. On that day, a friend present introduced him as the sister of a congressman. The two only interacted with each other by shaking hands. He had no offensive thoughts towards the woman, and he also denied having sex with other women. There was too much physical interaction and it will be left to the judiciary to give him justice.
