DPP says its main office was bugged
EAVESDROPPING: The party has launched a full-scale probe and search
for surveillance devices after a routine security check revealed
unusual signals
By Jewel Huang
STAFF REPORTER , WITH CNA
Monday, May 15, 2006,Page 3
Advertising During a routine anti-surveillance check last week, the
Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) found that the party's
headquarters had been bugged, according to a Chinese-language
newspaper report yesterday.
The party will be tearing down part of the ceiling on the ninth floor
to determine the source of signals from suspected eavesdropping
devices, the report said.
The Liberty Times (the Taipei Times' sister newspaper) reported that
last Tuesday, the DPP detected unusual signals in its headquarters'
meeting rooms and in high-ranking officials' offices on the ninth floor.
DPP spokesman Tsai Huang-liang (???) confirmed yesterday that the
party has launched a sweeping security check in the wake of the discovery.
The party rents the eighth, ninth, 10th and 14th floors of a building
on Beiping E Rd as their headquarters. All important meetings are
held in conference rooms located on the ninth floor, and the offices
of the chairman and secretary-general are on the same floor.
"We don't rule out the possibility that it could have been done by
... the opposition parties, the news media or even a Chinese `fifth column.'"
Tsai Huang-liang, a DPP spokesman
According to Tsai, the DPP regularly asks a private security company
to carry out security checks at its headquarters.
This time around, inspectors detected strong signals emanating from
bugging devices suspected to be on the ceiling of the ninth floor.
The DPP has decided to dismantle part of the ceiling to find and
remove the source of the signals.
"We don't rule out the possibility that it could have been done by
intelligence agencies, the opposition parties, the news media or even
a Chinese `fifth column,'" Tsai said. "But if Chinese spies were
involved in this eavesdropping, we think the national security
departments should deal with it quickly."
When asked about the suspected eavesdropping, DPP Chairman Yu
Shyi-kun said in Ilan yesterday that it was not unusual for the DPP
to be monitored, since the party was established 20 years ago during
the Martial Law era and the Chinese Nationalist Party's (KMT)
authoritarian rule.
