Some folks I know from Eastern Europe (former Soviet bloc) find this place to be pretty awesome. It certain depends on your frame of reference.

IndeedăMy mum came once, never to return. But then this was downtown Hsinchu, which was then certainly an acquired taste.
For my mom, the deal breakers were: noise, traffic, crowds, pollution, poor sanitation, heat, humidity, lack of sidewalks, greasy food. Thatâs a lot of deal breakersâŚ
Itâs not the easiest to take to if you havenât been brought up in hot crowded urban environments. I have some relatives who couldnât take the heat and crowds at all.
Leaflet that I found useful and informative:

Does it look different than any other type of ARC? I mean the actual card itself. The only benefit I see in getting it if itâs like the AMEX Premium of ARCs⌠different look and feel.
If you can bring your family, especially your parents under it, it is a biggie, as not even APRC holders can.
It looks almost exactly the same as a regular ARC (the TARC), there is no real difference .
If you mean the gold card, no idea.
I think the parents can get 1 year re-entry instead of six months re-entry according to the link irish guy posted above.
There was something about a five year limit for this card.
Progress update on my Gold Card application :
Really surprised at the efficiency here. It seems it took them less than 3 working days to process and approve the application.
By the way hereâs a link to a really good presentation from NDC providing details about the process and benefits of this card :

Well done! Congratulations on this speedy result!

Hi guys,
I have a case like this,
My salary is not exceeding 160k / month, however this month I am considering to ask for contract termination, hence eligible for Severance Payments, including last month salary they will be over 160k, considering All will be paid by the end of June, am I eligible for this employment gold card?
Thank you in advance

All in English. Good luck!
I appreciate for your links, however itâs a bit confusing about last salary criteria, whether it will include my Severance pay or not.
Ps. I just need to hold on this card until I can get my aprc and owp next year.
There are other categories you could apply under.
If you think salary is the best suited then I think it is the Ministry of Labor that you would need to contact and talk to an examiner of the Gold Card applications.
MOL or NIA? Or both? Just want to make sure before dialing their number
I believe itâs MOL that reviews the qualification.

The salary requirement is the quickest to process as MOL can verify that themselves and donât have to forward it to the appropriate Ministry (Science and Technology, Education etc).
Fyi, tax office treats salary and Severance pay separately.
but for the golden card, I dont know.
