You just don't understand CLA culture

[Chewycorns]

Forced labor amongst Southeast Asian contract workers? Shit, forced labor in the international development ministry [TaiwanICDF ] with an LSE-educated masters grad with British and Canadian passports as a victim.

I am glad Taiwan has been classified as Tier Two. I especially love the ministry’s “some misunderstanding” response.

Hey, isn’t the former CLA Chairwoman running for mayor in the South? What a great legacy towards Taiwan’s “internationalization.”

@Taipei Times

Early last month, the US State Department downgraded Taiwan to its “tier two” watch list in its latest Trafficking in Persons report. Other countries in the list include China, Cambodia, Mexico, India, and Indonesia.

Taiwan was placed on level two watch list particularly for the failure to address the serious level of forced labor.

The report said Taiwan continues to view runaway workers as merely people who are working in Taiwan illegally, and therefore the government detains and deports them upon capture.

The US report also criticized the nation for lacking comprehensive investigatons, prosecutions, and punishments for involuntary servitude.

The governments effort to ensure that foreign spouses understand their rights was minimal.

Responding to the US report, CLA Foreign Labor Section Chief Tsai Meng liang replied "there must be some kind of misunderstanding.‘’

Exactly the level of professionalism one would expect.
