Ministerial post appointment
On 29 July 2013, Premier Jiang Yi-huah announced a cabinet reshuffle for the first time since he took the Premiership on 18 February 2013. Yang was appointed to be the Minister of National Defense replacing Kao Hua-chu who had earlier tendered his resignation several times due to the death scandal of Corporal Hung Chung-chiu on 4 July 2013.[6] Right after his appointment, Yang promised that he would review military administration, professional certification and supervisory systems to improve human rights.[7] Yang was the first civilian to head the post since Ma Ying-jeou took the Presidential office on 20 May 2008.
Resignation
On 6 August 2013, Yang resigned from his position due to plagiarism allegations. Yang told the press that some portions of Ready for the D-day (Шаблон:Lang), the book he had written back in 2007 were written by his friends without proper citations. He decided to resign from his post to maintain the reputation of the Executive Yuan. Deputy Minister of National Defense, Kao Kuang-chi temporarily headed the ministry on 7 August until the official ministerial appointment of Yen Ming by the Executive Yuan on 8 August 2013.[8][9]
