The right logic should be combating lawlessness requires the police and the justice.

★ United Daily (聯合報, 2024-1-19): The police promotion relies on public relations capabilities (to bury some negative news, or even murder cases) rather than case-handling expertise, which probably results in the public do not feel Taiwan a place with good social security.當執法單位把壓負面新聞的公關視為重要能力，當執法機關的人事調整看公關能力、而不看偵辦案件等專業能力，或許正是為何政府一再以各種數據強調如今治安多好，民眾感覺卻是為何到處槍響...。如果連發生命案，都可以透過公關能力壓住不讓訊息外露，警方提出的數據中，又還有多少被隱藏的密碼？

The relationship between the "clean syndicates" and mafia in Taiwan is complicated. The former have long relied on gangsters to contribute huge financial flows. Simply establishing a law similar to Japan's "暴力团对策法" cannot solve the fundamental problem
