When visiting Taichung’s Huei Ming School (惠明學校) and High Power Opto (聯勝光電) in the Central Taiwan Science Park yesterday, People First Party (PFP) Vice Presidential candidate Lin Ruey-shiung (林瑞雄) reiterated that his bedroom had come under attack from the east with 18,750,000 Hz electromagnetic waves, which had made him suffer from severe insomnia for three whole days, so he had had no choice but to stay in a hotel room. However, since he was an expert in electromagnetic radiation, he knew what had been disturbing him was none other than electromagnetic waves, adding that someone wanted to “drive me crazy” or “make me suffer a stroke.”

Some scholars believed that the electromagnetic waves that Lin complained about were weaker than those escaping from a microwave oven. In response, Lin Ruey-shiung said, “They don’t know what they are talking about!” It requires ultra high ‘technique’ to transmit such low-frequency electromagnetic waves.”

The National Security Bureau (NSB) clarified that according to the National Communications Commission (NCC), no matter what frequency band of Dr. Lin’s so-called electromagnetic waves was, 18.75 MHz or 1875 MHz, no application for use had ever been received from any specific unit, including the Ministry of National Defense or the National Security Bureau. In addition, the national security unit was not equipped with any device or installation which could cause interference to any specific figure with electromagnetic waves or other technological weapons. Moreover, electromagnetic interference of any kind would be illegal. Therefore, if Dr. Lin suspected that he had been attacked with electromagnetic waves, he might ask the competent government agency, the NCC in this case, to monitor the possible electromagnetic waves.

Lin stated that he hadn’t begun to prepare for the upcoming televised debate to be held next Saturday, saying, “Let’s cross the bridge when we come to it!” He also applauded PFP chairman James Soong’s (宋楚瑜) for his high-level and profound remarks in the first debate, adding that Soong behaved with grace and ease, and had not been affected by his opponents.  

Lin added that in the debates, candidates should engage the opponents on their policies, not personal issues. All the side issues were nothing more than non-issues. Both President Ma Ying-jeou (馬英九) and DPP Presidential candidate Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) “lost their stature” because they didn’t set forth concrete policies.
