Summary:碩士 === 中國文化大學 === 法律學系 === 103 === Sunshine is the best preservative. In order to assure the incorruptibility of public servants, after several consultations among ruling and opposition parties in the Legislative Yuan, the Act on Property-Declaration by Public Servants had been finally passed on June 15, 1993 and taken effect on September 1 in the same year. The target is to achieve an honest and transparent politics by the Act on Property-Declaration by Public Servants and other laws, such as Political Contributions Law, Enactment of Lobbying Act, and Act on Recusal of Public Servants Due to Conflicts of Interest. The Act on Property-Declaration by Public Servants has been implemented for more than 20 years with four amendments. It is worth discussing about whether the Act needs to be improved further. A comprehensive analysis was made about the legal and the practical side of the Act on Property-Declaration by Public Servants in this study. First I analyzed the pros and cons of the Act, and then explored the implementation experiences of property declaration in other countries or regions, and finally made some suggestions for future amendments. It is expected that the property declaration can be carried on thoroughly to enhance the national competitive power and the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI).
