A multicultural festival celebrating ＂Migrants Day＂ will take place at the National Museum of Natural Science in Taichung City on December 10. The festival will feature performances, cultural experiences, and a prize drawing event. In an effort to educate immigrants about marriage management, rights in Taiwan, and the Domestic Violence Prevention Act, the National Immigration Agency’s Central Administration Corps organized a family education and legal advocacy event in Taichung on December 6. The event used creative presentations to help diverse couples recognize signs of physical and psychological abuse, stalking, and harassment. Hsieh Liang, chair of the Union of New Immigrants of Taichung City, served as a marriage educator, teaching communication skills and advising against tolerance for violence. Sung Hsin-hui, a violence prevention planner from the Taichung City Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Prevention Center, introduced the Domestic Violence Prevention Act and the Stalking and Harassment Prevention Act, as well as reporting procedures and shared case studies. The event provided valuable insights for A Chun, an immigrant from Japan, who gained a correct understanding of family violence and expressed relief that Taiwan’s legal system offers protection to victims. With Taiwan’s immigrant population growing, the NIA aims to foster unity among all ethnic groups and create a welcoming environment for new residents, promoting cultural integration.

Presidential candidate Ko Wen-je of the Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) has proposed several cultural initiatives to strengthen the rights of various ethnic groups in Taiwan. He emphasized that Taiwan’s composition is primarily a result of self-identification among different groups, with 67% identifying as Fujianese, 19% as Hakka, 5% from various Chinese provinces, 2% indigenous Taiwanese, and 8% as ＂new residents＂ including migrant workers, professionals, new immigrants, second-generation immigrants, and foreign university students. Ko advocated for Taiwan to become a melting pot for diverse ethnic groups and proposed a law against ethnic discrimination. Specifically addressing the Hakka community, he unveiled proposals to preserve Hakka culture and position Taiwan as a global hub for Hakka society. Ko also presented policies to support Taiwan’s indigenous populations, including granting more rights and establishing tribal self-governance councils.

DPP legislator Wang Ting-yu challenged the truthfulness of Taiwan People’s Party presidential candidate Ko Wen-je’s statements on Facebook. Wang criticized Ko for denying ever meeting Hsu Chun-ying, an honorary president of the Taiwanese New Immigrants Development Association, despite accusations to the contrary. Wang accused Ko of lying and planning to include Hsu on the TPP’s legislator-at-large list, contradicting Ko’s public declaration on Nov. 1 that he had never met Hsu. Wang questioned the inclusion of someone Ko claimed not to know, calling it irresponsible behavior. To support his argument, Wang cited Hsieh Li-Kung, former secretary-general of the TPP, who publicly stated that he introduced Hsu to Ko at the end of last year and early this year. Wang further claimed that Ko did meet Hsu at an event on Dec. 21, 2019, where Ko attended as mayor. Ko has yet to respond to the allegations.

Hsu Chun-ying, an honorary president of the ＂Taiwanese New Immigrants Development Association,＂ denies allegations of being a former member of China’s Communist Party. Hsu expressed anger towards Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) presidential candidate Lai Ching-te’s claims and challenged anyone to provide evidence of her membership.

Lai Ching-te, a Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) presidential hopeful, has expressed concerns over the potential threat to Taiwan’s security if the Kuomintang (KMT) and Taiwan People’s Party (TPP) gain a majority in the Legislative Yuan. This warning comes in light of allegations that Xu Chunying, the president of the Taiwan Association for the Development of New Immigrants, is a member of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and is suspected to be on the TPP’s list of legislative nominees.
