Political careers

Fake divorce incident

On 18 December 2009, two days before her husband Fu Kun-chi inaugurate magistrate of Hualien, they "fake divorced" and Fu immediately appointed Hsu as his deputy magistrate. The appointment was withdrawn by the Ministry of the Interior on 22 December 2009 due to the legal issue of fake divorcing and appoint close relative as deputy magistrate.

In 2011, Control Yuan ruled that Fu and Hsu violated the "Act on Recusal of Public Servants Due to Conflicts of Interest" and fined them one million NTD.

First Lady of Hualien (2009[a]–2018)

Although Hsu's appointment as deputy magistrate was withdrawn, she served in other positions during Fu's tenure as magistrate. Hsu was appointed the chairperson of Hualien China Youth Corps (Chinese: 救國團花蓮團) during Fu's first term as magistrate. She was then later appointed the captain of Hualien's Community Patrol (Chinese: 花蓮縣巡守) and subsequently the head of National Women's League (Chinese: 婦女後援會).[4]

2014 Hualien County magistrate election

Hsu participated in the 2014 Hualien County magistrate election on 29 November 2014 as an independent candidate finishing in 4th place, losing to her own husband Fu Kun-chi.[5][6] This election was the first time in the history of Taiwan that both husband and wife run for the same public position simultaneously.[7]
