Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Ho Chih-wei is making good on a promise he made last month. The lawmaker pledged to give away a thousand fried chicken cutlets if the police unearthed any counterfeit stimulus vouchers.
On August 13, police in the central county of Yunlin uncovered an operation that was creating counterfeit stimulus vouchers. Shortly after, people began circulating the news in a bid to get Ho to honor his promise.
Ho put in an order for 200 chicken cutlets at a food stall in Yunlin on Friday. On Monday morning, Ho went to the police precinct responsible for cracking the counterfeiting ring to thank the officers for their role in stopping the crime. He then distributed the snacks to the officers, saying that he will distribute the remaining 800 chicken cutlets to his constituency in Taipei.
