Of late, members of the Taiwan Provincial Assembly, the highest publicly elected body at the provincial level, have been embroiled in numerous scandals involving election bribery, libel charges, financial disputes and various lawsuits. In an effort to clean itself up and drive out malevolent forces, the Assembly conducted a prayer session in honor of the "good brothers," thereby resorting to ghosts instead of turning to the common people.
最近連身為全省最高民意機構的台灣省議會，在議員們涉及賄選、毀謗、金錢糾紛等不法而官司纏身之下，議會「不問蒼生問鬼神」，舉辦法會，祭拜好兄弟，以求「驅邪改運」。
