Hsiao Chia-chi (Chinese: 蕭家淇; pinyin: Xiāo Jiāqí) is a politician in the Republic of China. He currently serves as the Deputy Secretary-General of the Executive Yuan since 8 March 2014.[3]

Interior Deputy Ministry

Migration to Northern Taiwan

In January 2014, commenting on the recent trend of massive migration of people from Southern to Northern Taiwan over the past six years, Hsiao said that measures will be taken to improve the infrastructure and social welfare, as well as to help young people in the less developed areas. Urban planning will also be reviewed in populated city areas.[4]

Executive Yuan Deputy Secretary-General

Sunflower Student Movement

In the aftermath of the students occupation of the Executive Yuan in March 2014 during the damage inspection of the Yuan, Hsiao gave a statement which drew criticism from the public for giving more concern of his stolen suncake than the well-being of the wounded protesters. The offended public reacted by giving him back a set of 150 boxes of suncake the next day.[5]
