強化職場戰鬥力 投資青年就業不卡關!

Boost Workplace Competitiveness – Invest in Youth Employment Without Barriers!

To strengthen youth employment capabilities, the Ministry of Labor has launched Phase II of the Youth Employment Investment Program in 2023. Through diverse measures, the program supports youth in securing stable employment and developing their careers. By 2024, it will have successfully helped 224,008 people gain employment and provided training to another 44,822, demonstrating tangible policy results.According to the Workforce Development Agency, the program integrates various initiatives such as the &ldquoCollege Youth Pre-employment Program,&rdquo the &ldquoFirst-time Job Seekers Employment Stabilization Program,&rdquo and &ldquoCross-domain Employment Subsidies.&rdquo These aim to assist students in exploring their careers, help non-traditional workers transition to full-time roles, and guide talents into key industries by linking with industrial resources.With graduation season approaching, the agency encourages young people to make use of the five Youth Career Development Centers (Youth Salon, YS) across Taiwan. These centers provide resume reviews, mock interviews, career counseling, and workplace tours. Young people can also book online video career consultations via the TaiwanJobs Youth Career Platform (https://gov.tw/i3R) &mdash up to three times per year &mdash or join online group seminars and watch career-related videos.Additionally, the TaiwanJobs website offers a &ldquoJobooks&rdquo section (https://gov.tw/ctF), which includes information on over 500 occupations, industry trends, required skills, job content, educational qualifications, and salary expectations.Take the case of Xiao Ning, a graduate in Industrial Design with exchange experience in Germany. Her first job was in project management, but it did not align with her career expectations. Through YS's career consultation, she learned about B Corporations that value social and environmental responsibility, and decided to pursue a job in that sector. Despite lacking a relevant background, she accepted the challenge with encouragement from a counselor, gradually adapted, and is now steadily developing her career in a B Corp.The Ministry of Labor reminds young people to visit the Youth Employment Investment Program website (https://gov.tw/c93) and the Youth Vocational Training Resources portal (https://gov.tw/daX) for course, subsidy, and training information. They can also visit TaiwanJobs (https://gov.tw/n7F) or call the toll-free hotline 0800-777-888 for personalized employment counseling and support services.

不再糾結!正確葡萄酒品飲順序解鎖你的味蕾饗宴

No More Confusion! Unlock a Feast for Your Taste Buds with the Right Wine Tasting Order

Wine tasting is an art. To let the diverse flavors of each wine shine on the palate, the order of tasting is crucial. Still stuck in the old &ldquowhite before red&rdquo mindset? That simple rule no longer satisfies today&rsquos discerning wine lovers. A proper wine tasting sequence allows every sip to reveal its best character, delivering a perfect sensory journey.Tasting wine by order is no longer just about color. In general, start with sparkling wines, followed by white wines, ros&eacutes, red wines, and finish with fortified wines. This approach prevents lighter wines from being overwhelmed by fuller-bodied ones, ensuring each wine's personality stands out.The general rule is to start with lighter wines and move toward fuller-bodied ones. (Photo: Heho)Sparkling wine is the best way to start a tasting&mdashits bubbles and freshness set the tone. Next, light and crisp white wines refresh the palate, followed by ros&eacute as a bridge between whites and reds. Then come the full-bodied reds, releasing tannins and aromas that deepen the tasting experience. Lastly, fortified wines wrap up the event with intense and memorable flavors.But rules aren&rsquot always absolute. Faced with a rich Pinot Gris and a light Beaujolais Nouveau, how do you decide the order? Go by body&mdashlight before heavy&mdashso each wine can shine without interference.Sweetness also matters. Since the human palate is sensitive to sweetness, starting with sweet wines can dull the flavors of later ones. Begin with dry wines and gradually increase the sweetness, finishing with a sweet dessert wine like Sauternes to leave a lingering impression.Vintage plays a role, too. Young wines are usually fresh and simple, best tasted before mature wines that offer more complex aromas and rounded textures. Ending with aged wines gives a profound closing to your tasting journey.A thoughtful tasting sequence prevents palate fatigue and enhances each wine&rsquos expression. From light to full-bodied, dry to sweet, young to old&mdashthis gradual progression brings out the wine&rsquos layered beauty. It&rsquos more than just &ldquowhite before red&rdquo&mdashit&rsquos the true joy of wine tasting.The key to wine tasting order isn&rsquot simply &ldquowhite before red,&rdquo but rather focusing on progressing from light to full-bodied. (Photo: Heho)Ultimately, personal preference is key. Whether you follow the rules or go your own way, enjoying every sip is what matters most. Cleanse your palate with plain bread or water between wines to stay ready for the next flavor adventure.The wine world is rich and diverse. Once you understand the right tasting order, anyone&mdashfrom beginner to connoisseur&mdashcan enjoy their own wine feast.

終結快買快丟時代!法國「超快時尚法案」生效在即,這場永續革命將如何顛覆全球購物習慣?

Ending the Era of Buy-and-Throw! France's 'Ultra-Fast Fashion Law' Is About to Take Effect - How Will This Sustainability Revolution Transform Global Shopping Habits?

Have you ever scrolled through your phone late at night and impulsively bought a gorgeous jacket shared by a favorite fashion influencer, amazed that it cost just a few dollars and would arrive the next day? That&rsquos the allure of "ultra-fast fashion": low prices, lightning-fast delivery, and constantly changing styles. Brands like Shein and Temu thrive by capitalizing on this rhythm, filling our shopping carts&mdashand consuming massive amounts of the planet&rsquos resources.But in 2025, France finally hit the brakes. The country officially passed the &ldquoUltra-Fast Fashion Law,&rdquo which limits excessive promotions and production speed, mandates transparency about clothing&rsquos carbon footprint, and imposes environmental taxes. It&rsquos a wake-up call to reconsider how and why we buy clothes.Temptations and Hidden Costs of the Ultra-Fast Fashion EraThe appeal of fast fashion lies in affordability and variety&mdashyou can wear a different outfit every day with little effort. However, behind the scenes, mass production and wasteful disposal lead to severe environmental damage and a surge in textile waste, as well as frequent labor exploitation in the name of lower costs.France&rsquos legislation directly targets these issues by restricting daily product releases from ultra-fast fashion brands, banning ads aimed at minors, and imposing an annually increasing environmental tax. It forces both brands and consumers to reflect: Do we need to change clothes this fast and this often?The Temptations and Concerns of the Ultra-Fast Fashion Era (Photo: PEXELS, TOCO Life Magazine)France Sounds the Global Sustainability AlarmAt its core, ultra-fast fashion isn&rsquot just about speed&mdashit feeds off our &ldquoconsumer anxiety&rdquo in the digital age. A pair of pants you bought yesterday is outdone today by a cheaper version pushed by an algorithm, or dismissed by influencers as &ldquolast season.&rdquo Our sense of value and taste are constantly manipulated&mdashif you&rsquore not keeping up, you&rsquore falling behind.That&rsquos exactly what the French government is addressing: by holding brands accountable through law and reminding consumers that shopping has real costs. Since the French National Assembly unanimously passed the law in March 2024, and the Senate overwhelmingly supported it in June (337 votes to 1), the momentum has been clear. Next, the law will be submitted to the EU for review, with full implementation expected in the fall of 2025.The new law sets a minimum &euro5 environmental surcharge for ultra-fast fashion items, increasing to &euro10 by 2030, capped at 50% of the item&rsquos price. This ensures these cheap clothes finally reflect their true environmental cost&mdashnot just in France, but as a global signal to the fashion industry: the toll of rapid consumption is no longer ignorable.France Sounds the Global Sustainability Alarm with Its Launch of the &ldquoUltra-Fast Fashion Law&rdquo (Photo: PEXELS, TOCO Life Magazine)Rethinking Fashion Beyond SpeedWhile Taiwan has yet to pass similar legislation, more people are supporting local designers, exploring second-hand clothing, or renting apparel to extend garment lifespans. Fashion shouldn&rsquot be about chasing the newest and fastest trends, but about appreciating and thoughtfully choosing what we wear.France&rsquos movement is a reminder: real style is about valuing what you already have&mdashnot constantly buying new. When our buying mindset shifts, fashion becomes gentler, more dignified.This article is authorized by TOCO Life Magazine.

臺灣入境新制10月1日上路!更直觀、更友善、流程更簡便!外來旅客須於網路填寫入國登記表(TWAC)

Taiwan's New Entry System Launches on October 1! More intuitive, more user-friendly, and simpler process! All inbound travelers must complete the online arrival form (TWAC)

Taiwan will soon implement a new entry procedure. Currently, foreign travelers can choose between a paper and an online version of the Arrival Card. To improve border clearance efficiency, the National Immigration Agency (NIA) introduced a new electronic Arrival Card interface (Taiwan Arrival Card, or TWAC) on May 5, 2025. It has received positive feedback and will become mandatory on October 1, when the paper version will be discontinued.Travelers must fill out the TWAC within three days before arriving in Taiwan by visiting the NIA TWAC website. This will significantly reduce customs clearance time and paper waste.NIA TWAC Website (Image from the National Immigration Agency website)According to the NIA, digitization is a global trend. The new TWAC platform is more intuitive, user-friendly, and streamlined, with added functions for editing and reviewing submitted information.Travelers can complete the form in Chinese or English, with field descriptions also provided in Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, and Indonesian. Uploading a photo of the passport bio page allows automatic data entry, speeding up the process.For families or groups, one person can fill in information for up to 16 travelers. After verifying their email address, a confirmation will be sent upon successful submission. Upon arrival, passport control will automatically retrieve the TWAC data.Taiwan is renowned for its majestic natural scenery and diverse culture. To help global travelers enjoy the island&rsquos beauty and culinary delights, pre-filling the TWAC ensures smoother entry.Air and sea carriers have also posted TWAC QR code links at check-in counters for passengers to scan and complete the form. Those who haven&rsquot submitted beforehand must do so before passport inspection.TWAC Online Registration:https://twac.immigration.gov.tw/

新住民從受助者到貢獻者:我們該如何重新看待這股改變社會的力量?

From Recipients to Contributors: How Should We Rethink This Force That Is Changing Society?

On a weekend night at Taipei Main Station, a group of young people quietly wove through the streets and alleys. They made no noise, carried no banners&mdashonly hot food, old clothes, and warm smiles. They are members of the International Volunteer Club from Kainan University in Taoyuan, led by two newly arrived Vietnamese students: Fan Yueli and Ruan Shiluan. They are not the focus of the news, nor do they seek applause, yet they are quietly practicing &ldquokindness&rdquo in the most overlooked corners of the city.&nbspBreaking Established Impressions: New Residents Are Not Just RecipientsTaiwanese society&rsquos view of new residents has long been confined to labels like &ldquoneeds acceptance&rdquo and &ldquolanguage disadvantaged.&rdquo However, this one-dimensional understanding overlooks that new residents themselves can be agents of social change. The experiences of Yueli and Shiluan are the best examples of this disruption. Through their actions, they prove that new residents are not merely a group to be shielded, but also social actors promoting public welfare and societal inclusion.&nbspFrom a Public Policy Perspective: This Role Reversal Boosts Social CohesionFrom a public policy standpoint, this role reversal not only enhances new residents&rsquo self-identity but also strengthens societal cohesion. Internationally, many multicultural societies no longer regard immigrants as &ldquoneeding assimilation&rdquo but emphasize cultural integration and complementarity&mdashTaiwan is heading in this direction. This extends beyond cultural considerations it influences Taiwan&rsquos stance on human rights and multicultural values in international assessments.Given Taiwan&rsquos low birth rate and the growing need to attract foreign students&mdasha key labor and youth workforce group&mdashour view aligns with the cited public television article: foreign students are broadly new residents, and socially, they are a long-ignored group. Taiwan&rsquos definition of new residents should not be limited to foreign spouses or migrant workers. It should also include another highly knowledgeable group: foreign students, most of whom are undergraduates and graduates.These students are often multilingual, bridging their native language communities and the mainstream society while observing social issues with sensitivity and an international perspective. From a policy-making standpoint, providing more public participation channels for this group of young new residents can help break rigid identity classifications and concretely facilitate their sense of &ldquoroles&rdquo in public affairs.From the Streets: How Youth Volunteers Explore Social Blind SpotsThe street initiatives of Kainan&rsquos International Volunteer Club began simply with a few students&rsquo passion. But as this passion persisted, returning to the same homeless communities week after week, deeper human connections formed. They say it wasn&rsquot a one-time act of giving, but a long-term companionship. This accompaniment allowed them to see the social cracks that institutions alone haven&rsquot filled. The reason homeless people stay on the streets isn&rsquot rejection of help, but the distance from institutional structures and gaps in social resources.These observations and actions are precisely the most precious parts of civil society. Are we willing to acknowledge that such social sensitivity can come from new residents?&nbspThis is particularly important for a society in transition like Taiwan&rsquos. In recent years, we often talk about youth participation in politics and social innovation, but if we focus only on local, middle-class youth, we may overlook the agency and social responsibility shown by &ldquonon-mainstream&rdquo youth like Yueli and Shiluan. Their involvement enriches the definition of &ldquoTaiwanese youth&rdquo and expands the inclusiveness of Taiwanese civil society.&nbspCultural Integration Lab: The Multicultural Value of a Campus Volunteer ClubWhat started with only Vietnamese members has grown to include Taiwanese and students from other countries. Kainan&rsquos International Volunteer Club has become a living cultural laboratory. Through weekly missions, youths of diverse cultural backgrounds learn to understand, compromise, and collaborate in practice. The results&mdashreal cultural exchanges and social insights&mdashare deeper than any textbook, and subtly influence the younger generation&rsquos values.This reminds us: cross-cultural education does not necessarily rely on formal systems experiential participation is the most effective way to foster global perspectives. And new resident youths are the best bridge in this educational revolution.And this kind of &ldquofield&rdquo need not be confined to campuses. If government and NGOs cooperate to integrate these cross-cultural volunteer actions into local social service systems&mdashor tie them into service-learning programs and social design&mdashit may pave the way for more sustained social change.&nbspFrom Kind Acts to Civic Consciousness: New Residents as Agents in a DemocracyTaiwan is full of kind people, yet distinctions in language, appearance, or identity still segment society. Yueli and Shiluan&rsquos example reminds us that the spirit of democracy is not just elections or institutions, but equality and trust among citizens. New residents are not merely passive within societal frameworks they can also be external forces shaping public affairs through action and civic responsibility.Such responsibility is not determined by nationality or birthplace&mdashit&rsquos a value that everyone who lives on Taiwan&rsquos soil should share.&nbspEspecially in Taiwan&rsquos approaching context of an aging society and labor shortage, the participation and contributions of new residents are no longer an option, but a necessity. Therefore, public policy must be redesigned to allow these deep-rooted individuals to truly participate in policy-making, not just be recipients of assistance.&nbspFrom &ldquoOthers&rdquo to &ldquoUs&rdquo &mdash The Story of New Residents Must Not Be Merely an ExceptionThe stories of Yueli and Shiluan should not just be heartwarming episodes&mdashthey should provoke societal, institutional, and value-oriented reflections. Are we giving sufficient platforms so that people of diverse cultures can develop their potential and change society? Are we able, in education, media, and policy, to set aside our sense of superiority and truly see every new resident&mdashfrom Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, &hellip and foreign students&mdashas equals?Although they are foreign students, they are also new residents, bringing higher education, critical thinking, and initiative&mdashinfusing Taiwan with fresh vitality! If Taiwan aspires to be Asia&rsquos beacon of freedom and democracy, it must manifest multicultural respect and inclusion in every detail of human rights. New residents should not be forced to play minor parts, but become leading co-creators of the future. Their strength is the value we often undervalue, yet should cherish most.

Pingtung Immigration Office Visits Campus to Unlock Key Strategies for Foreign Students Staying in Taiwan

As the semester draws to a close, whether international students can successfully stay in Taiwan for work after graduation becomes a key issue. The Pingtung County Service Center of the Southern Administration Corps, National Immigration Agency, visited National Pingtung University to participate in the university&rsquos &ldquoProfessional Guidance Program for International Students Staying in Taiwan for Employment.&rdquo Officers explained post-graduation work and residency application guidelines to graduating students. The atmosphere was lively as students eagerly took notes and asked questions.Students eagerly took notes and asked questions, creating a lively atmosphere. (Photo: Screenshot from the NIA website)Personnel from the Pingtung office used simple and clear language to explain what types of residence permits are required for foreign students who wish to stay in Taiwan after graduation. Students were also reminded to pay close attention to residence expiry dates, as overstaying may lead to fines ranging from NT$10,000 to NT$50,000. Students with professional capabilities were encouraged to contribute their expertise in Taiwan and make good use of legal employment channels provided by the government.The event also featured Mr. Huang Hui-Bin from the Labor and Economic Division of the Executive Yuan&rsquos Southern Joint Service Center, who introduced the "Points-based System" for foreign professionals seeking to stay in Taiwan. This system allows foreign nationals to accumulate points through criteria such as education, salary, language ability, and work experience, which can be used to apply for a work permit from the Ministry of Labor. Students were advised to prepare early while still in school.Wu Shu-Hsien, Director of the Pingtung Service Center, stated that international students are a valuable asset to Taiwan&rsquos multicultural society. Through on-campus outreach, the agency aims to provide timely and accurate information, helping students transition smoothly into careers and life in Taiwan. The center will continue to work with universities to expand outreach and foster a more welcoming environment.In addition, with the Dragon Boat Festival approaching, international students are reminded not to mail or order meat products or other quarantine-required items to Taiwan. Importing pork products via mail from African Swine Fever-affected countries or regions will result in a fine of NT$200,000 for the first offense, and NT$1,000,000 for repeat offenses.Students returning to Taiwan should also note that meat products, animal products, and airline meals are not allowed upon entry. If carried, these must be discarded in the disposal bins or declared and discarded at customs to avoid penalties.

Woman's LINE Account Hacked, Criminal Investigation Bureau Urges Upgrade to Prevent HackingThe Criminal Investigation Bureau recently strengthened its campaign to warn the public against fake voting scams. Scammers often impersonate friends or relatives, luring victims to click links and enter their LINE account, password, and mobile verification code. They then hijack the account by logging out of other devices and changing the password, locking out the original user. Recently, a woman surnamed Chang was tricked while helping vote for a "pet photography contest." Her personal information was stolen, her LINE account hacked, and used to scam her contacts. The Bureau advises upgrading LINE to version 15.4 or above, which includes a new feature allowing users to recover their account via SMS OTP. They also warn never to enter OTP unless switching devices or registering a new account, and to avoid providing account information in unknown voting or contest activities. Even if messages appear to be from friends, users should verify when personal data or money is involved to avoid falling victim.New Taipei Celebrates World Bicycle Day with Rental Discounts and Family Summer Cycling CampIn response to the United Nations&rsquo World Bicycle Day, New Taipei City&rsquos River Management Office and the New Bicycle Culture Foundation are holding a series of promotional events from June 2 to 4 to encourage healthy and eco-friendly cycling.
