The newly appointed Minister of Justice Mr. Cai Qing-Xiang visited the Academy in the afternoon of Aug 21, 2018 and was received by the Academy’s department heads who were led by the Academy’s President Tsai Pi-Yu. The minister was also the president of the Academy for 1 year and 2 months between May 7, 2015 and July 17, 2016. Despite being a short term, he formed strong bonds with the staff, who were now delighted to see an old friend returning for the first time since he took office as the Minister of Justice. Under the company of President Tsai and the department heads, the Minister inspected the environment and facilities of the Academy as President Tsai briefed him on the development of Academy affairs and innovative measures implemented since she started her term. The Minister made sure to stop by each office to greet the employees with warm handshakes and words of encouragement before sitting down for a friendly talk with the President and the department heads at the Academy Archives Room. During the talk, President Tsai informed the Minister of the outcomes of a number of measures, including the annual gatherings that connected graduates with current students, the compilation of the Academy Journal, counseling services for the mental health of faculty and students, regular assessments on the morality and knowledge of students, reporting and support mechanism for abnormal events, cancellation of custom student uniforms, and collective physical examinations. Finally, the Minister met with the prosecutors-to-be of the 57th Judicial Official Program in a classroom to congratulate them on their upcoming appointments as he expressed his earnest expectations and warm encouragement.
