Taiwan High Speed Rail (THSR) experienced its most severe delay in recent years on May 25, affecting over 114,000 passengers. THSR will form a joint investigation team with the original manufacturer and third-party agencies, including the Railway Technology Research and Verification Center (RTRVC) and the National Kaohsiung University of Science and Technology Railway Technology Center. Lawmakers questioned the credibility of RTRVC, citing its board members are mostly from the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MOTC) and THSR. The MOTC defended the arrangement, stating the board and technical staff are separate.
