How much of a younger demographic even is there these days? The middle-aged forumosans arrived when there were plenty of cram school teachers coming for a year or three - I don’t think that’s happening anywhere near as much anymore, is it?

Indeed, the days of foreigners from English speaking countries moving to Taiwan to make a future here peaked many years ago. Its a declining demographic.
