A monk at a well-known temple in Taitung has been accused of advising worshippers against seeing doctors and getting injections. A lawyer warns this could violate the Medical Law. The incident comes amidst controversy surrounding the Xuanji Temple, a famous temple in Taitung. The monk, Master Ji Dian, is known online, with his live streams attracting over 30,000 viewers each time.

This could constitute providing false medical advice, potentially harming the health of worshippers and violating the Medical Law…

A Facebook ad for mullet roe turned out to be 13 bags of dried sweet potatoes!

Introduction: Year-End Review – Is Your Company's Legal Protection Network Strong Enough? As the year draws to a close, many business owners and senior managers are busy not only settling revenue and planning year-end parties, but also, and perhaps more importantly, reviewing the operational risks and costs for the coming year. Among these tasks, the renewal and selection of "regular legal counsel" is often an underestimated yet crucial step. In Taiwan, many SMEs believe that legal counsel is only for "fighting lawsuits." However, in my dual experience as a lawyer and SEO expert, truly profitable companies treat lawyers as "business strategy partners." Especially when your business involves exporting, OEM/ODM manufacturing, franchising, or reviewing complex English and Chinese contracts, a typical "jack-of-all-trades" lawyer may not meet your needs. This article will explain from both business practice and legal professional perspectives why…
