Procurement work leading to jail time? Three major pitfalls of the "Government Procurement Law" that could inadvertently constitute "profiteering"! A legal self-protection guide for civil servants.

Last Updated: November 1, 2025 | Author: Attorney Li Yusheng (Focusing Attorney at Fidelity Law Firm / Guest Legal Commentator for Political Talk Shows) Foreword: The Dilemma of Procurement Personnel: Doing Well is Duty, Making Mistakes is "Profiteering"?

Most frighteningly, a careless procedural flaw may not just result in administrative penalties, but directly escalate to "profiteering" under the "Anti-Corruption Act."
