Perng Shaw-jiin (Chinese: 彭紹瑾; pinyin: Péng Shàojǐn; born 28 February 1957) is a Taiwanese lawyer and politician.
Education and early career
[edit]Perng majored in law at National Taiwan University, before earning an LL.M from Soochow University and a doctorate of law from the University of Munich. He taught law at Soochow and Ming Chuan University and worked for the Taoyuan Public Prosecutor's Office in the early 1990s.[1][2]
Political career
[edit]Perng was first named to the Legislative Yuan in 1996, and stabbed by gang members his first year in office.[3] He ran for Taoyuan County Magistrate in 2001,[4] losing to Eric Chu. Perng returned to the Legislative Yuan from 2005 to 2008, before stepping down. The election of Chiu Ching-chun as Hsinchu County Magistrate in 2009 triggered a by-election for his legislative seat. Perng ran for the position and won by 15,283 votes.[5] Perng represented Hsinchu County until 2012, when he was succeeded by Hsu Hsin-ying.
