Temples and Local Factions- A Case Study of the

Personnel Election of DaJia Jenn Lann Temple
Hung-ming Ho and Yeh-lih Wang

Abstract

Local factions have been active players in Taiwanese local politics. Various
researchers have shown that factions reach deep into community development
associations, farmers associations, fishermen associations, irrigation associations,
and credit cooperatives. They overshadow the elections of important posts in these
organizations with political tension. This phenomenon begs the question that if
religion, as represented in the local temples that wield great influence over everyday
life of Taiwanese people, is also the prey of the factions. A positive answer would
lead curious researchers to probe further for the methods and the means by which
the factions access such influence, and the reasons for their doing so in such an
expressive and matter-of-fact way. This paper focuses on DaJia Jenn Lan Temple
(JLT), specifically, on its election of the board of directors. The election process,
the design of the process, the structure, the resulting composition of the board of
directors, and political ramifications are dissected carefully to expose its intricacies
and maneuvering of the factions involved. JLT is chosen for the study for two
reasons. First, JLT locates in Taichung County, where the interaction between the
Red and the Black factions, and between different factions and the JLT can provide
significant insight into the actual management of JLT and if any institutional factors
are in play in the process. Second, the chairman of the sixth, seventh, eighth and
ninth board of directors, Yen Ching Piao (), was also a legislator in Legislative
Yuan during his tenure. In addition, he is widely recognized as the de facto leader
of the Black faction in Taichung. Does this juxtaposition of different jobs and
functions harbor, politically and religiously, much more than meet the eyes? This
paper summarizes the findings of the exploration of JLT and its board election system
as follows: First, both the Red and the Black factions do involve themselves in the
elections of the board of directors, which in turn is the result of the election system of
the JLT board. Second, Yen, a law maker who is acting as the chairman of JLT board
of directors does have great significance. He broke apart the traditional conception
that common worship is limited geographically to allow participation by the various
factions, this turn helps mitigate the conflicts thtat arose among the 53 villages, and
their faction proxies in DaJia.
