Ma Chih-wei
Ma Chih-wei is a former independent legislative candidate from Taiwan who was sentenced to two years and eight months in prison for accepting funding from Chinese sources to support her election campaign. She was initially a spokeswoman for the Taiwan People’s Party but was expelled after being investigated for alleged campaign finance violations, including receiving cryptocurrency donations from China. The High Court ruled that she violated the Anti-Infiltration Act by accepting money from an infiltrative entity, though she denied breaching national security laws. Her case has attracted significant attention due to its implications for Taiwan's political integrity and security.
