No to morgue duty for repeat DUI offenders: Ko Taipei times
Cleaning corpses is a professional job, and making drunk-driving offenders do it might not punish them, but punish the deceased, Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je (柯文哲) said yesterday.
During a Taipei City Council meeting on Friday, Democratic Progressive Party Taipei City Councilor Ho Chih-wei (何志偉) suggested that repeat drunk-driving offenders should be sentenced to clean cadavers as punishment.
There were a total of 11,000 cases of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs (DUI) reported in Taipei during 2014 and last year, and this year 8,109 more cases had been reported as of August.
During a question-and-answer session at the council, Ho said repeat offenders often have their prosecutions deferred and are ordered to perform community service such as sweeping the floor of public libraries, which serves no deterrent effect.
“You drink, you drive, you wash,” he said, suggested morgues would be a better place for such community service.
Cleaning bodies would allow repeat offenders to “wash away their sins,” Ho said.
Such punishment has been used in Thailand and some US states, while other US states require drunk driving offenders to visit a morgue.
Taiwan should emulate these examples, Ho said.
Pressed by reporters yesterday, Ko said the Taipei City Mortuary Services Office was unlikely to agree with Ho’s suggestion, as cleaning the bodies of the dead should be done by professionals.
“Cleaning cadavers is a professional job, so having drunk-driving offenders do it may be a punishment for the deceased,” he said.
“Drunk-driving offenders must be caught,” Ko said, adding that the number of deaths in the city caused by drunk driving is relatively low, but the police have to spend a lot of time checking for drunk drivers.
Ko said that he has asked the Taipei Department of Social Welfare to think of better ways to reduce the incidence of drunk driving.

Supermarket coupons are becoming increasingly available in this day and age - even in the UK.
1. Organisation is key
Throwing away coupons, finding expired coupons and forgetting coupons are the things you want to avoid doing. Make sure you keep all of your coupons in one place so you don’t lose them and remember to pick them up before you go shopping!
2. Free in-store magazines
Most of the major supermarkets have free in-store magazines that have coupons in them. As they are free, pick up more than one. If the coupons are useful to you, you can get the items at a discounted price every week you shop.
3. Online couponing

4. Store loyalty isn’t always best
Shopping in one store is not always the best way to go. Looking around for sales to match your coupons is the best way to save bigger. If you wait for the product you have to go on sale, then you save more. These sales vary in different supermarkets so if it is cheap elsewhere, go there!
