Chen Hsiu-hui
陳秀惠
1 February 2005 – 31 January 2008
Taitung County, Taiwan
Chen Hsiu-hui (Chinese: 陳秀惠; pinyin: Chén Xiùhuì; born 7 May 1962) is a Taiwanese Amis politician.
Activism
Chen attended Chung Chi College in Hong Kong and is a minister of the Presbyterian Church of Taiwan.[1] She has also been active in the Foundation of Women's Rights Promotion and Development[2][3] and the National Cultural Association.[4][5]
Chen is the founding chair of the Homemakers' Union,[6] and has led the National Alliance of Taiwan Women's Associations.[7][8]
Political career
Chen was listed on the Democratic Progressive Party list and elected to the Legislative Yuan via proportional representation in 2004.[9] She criticized a 2004 bill regarding land restoration and conservation, stating, "Land restoration and conservation should be a national issue, not the sole responsibility of aboriginal peoples. If the government really wants the draft to benefit indigenous peoples, it can approve various budgets, such as for a forest protection fund, to assist them with practical sustainable development plans." As written, the bill was vague, not practical, and amounted to political propaganda, she believed.[10] Chen also derided government attempts to promote aboriginal languages.[11] Chen supported the caning of people who have committed sex crimes.[12]
She was named the leader of Taipei's Indigenous Peoples Commission by mayor Ko Wen-je in December 2014,[13] and began receiving pressure to resign in 2016, after she made remarks that stigmatized Atayals.[14][15]
