After the recent media report of a Chinese communist regime organizations’ infiltration of Taiwan universities and research institutions, Taiwan’s Ministry of Education asked the group to leave immediately. The Education Minister pledged to make a comprehensive inspection of colleges and universities for similar violations.

According to a report by the Central News Agency, on Nov. 8, Taiwan’s Ministry of Education requested the “Hsinchu Office of the Cross-Strait Tsinghua Research Institute” to immediately leave Taiwan’s National Tsing Hua University (NTHU) premises. The institute, jointly established by the Chinese regime’s Xiamen Municipal Government and Tsinghua University in Beijing, has engaged in technology research and development, talent acquisition, and investment and other businesses. Its Chinese official background has attracted much attention.
