i don’t think the OP is coming back.
that isn’t privilege. its the same thing as a chinese person getting a job in a chinese restaurant in a western country. they are being employed also for their looks. if you are black or asian you don’t fit what the taiwanese parents and employers are looking for. its nothing about privilege. buxiban teachers are not being hired for their english ability alone here. sure its stupid but there is a mindset behind it. if you are black or asian and a native english speaker you can still teach english legally, whereas someone who is french can’t. should they start complaining about native english speakers privilege now or what?
