Early career
Lin was elected as legislator for three consecutive terms in 1990-1999 during 1st to 3rd legislatures. During the term, he had been the convener for the Foreign Affairs and National Defense Committee, Economic Affairs Committee and Judiciary and Organic Laws and Statutes Committee; the member of Procedure Committee; the chairperson of the Judiciary and Economics Coordination Committees at the Legislative Yuan of Kuomintang (KMT); the senior deputy clerk of KMT (caucus) at Legislative Yuan; and deputy chief of KMT Coordination Committee at Legislative Yuan.

Secretary General
Lin was arrested in January 2016, as the Taipei Prosecutors Office suspected that the Legislative Yuan was favoring a certain computer company in negotiation for supply contracts.[4] The contracts won by Far Net Technologies totaled NT$200 million, in return for over NT$10 million in kickbacks paid out to Lin.[5][6] He was indicted on charges of corruption in May.[7]
