it started a month ago with this terrible music and her voice beeing in a very bad quality hardly to understand …
Then they had the same commercial with some light basic background music …
Now it seems they fix it. Apart I dislike these ads anyway, they now look a bit more proffessional …
Question is:
Are they really that stupid, or do they do that on purpose ?
both. I don’t get her messages anyhow, like most polititicans here they are always vague, extremely generalized and leaving huge voids.

TV ads for political candidates are vague, gushing, heartwarming, and generalized the world over. The only time they are specific is when they are going after their opponents failures or one specific issue.
You really expect details in a 30 seconds ad?
30 seconds or 300 seconds won’t matter 
I like this Tsai commercial because it shows the DPP’s pro-diversity platform on immigration.
Does it? I only see people cooking and those spring rolls make me hungry

Random translation (I blanked out about the wording about 50 times writing this, I think I need to get off the computer for today):
“You shouldn’t have to face any kind of discrimination when you’re raising a son or daughter for Taiwan.
Chairwoman Tsai Ying-wen promotes “The Friendly to New Immigrants Policy”
Improving professional training and career opportunities
Encouraging children to inherit the language and culture of their mothers”
Quite sweet. Crap policy name.

What? You mean the Vietnamese spring rolls were some kind of code for…immigrants in Taiwan? Who’d a thunk it?
inheriting cooking skills
and social status
I have a half-Vietnamese girl in my class, and the other students hate her.
I think this has more to do with her being bossy and a tattletale than with her being half-Viet, though. She even annoys me sometimes, and she’s a really eager-to-learn student. She’s like Hermione in the first Harry Potter book.
People have weird views on foreigners here though. Living in the expat/English-speaking community you wouldn’t experience a lot of the slights that get thrown your way, but if you speak Chinese and spend almost all your time with locals and chatting to the people you meet you get some really weird questions thrown at you, and not always in the ‘I’m just hopeless and curious’ way either. Stuff like ‘how come you people are allowed to go for a driver’s licence here?’ from fruit stall owners. Nothing major, but enough to remind you that you’re always ‘different’.
Diversity education is way overdue here.
Are these “diversity cooking people” allowed to keep their passports?..
