George Hsieh
George Hsieh is the mayor of Keelung, Taiwan, who recently made headlines when prosecutors declined to charge him in connection with a dispute involving NET Fashion Development Co. The case revolved around the controversial eviction of NET from the Keelung E-Square Mall, with allegations of larceny and property damage brought against Hsieh and other city officials. Prosecutors determined that the ownership of the mall was ambiguous and found no evidence of criminal intent, leading to the decision not to pursue charges. Hsieh remains under investigation for other potential violations related to anti-corruption laws.
