The Taipei City Foreign and Disabled Labor Office (FDLO, 台北市勞動力重建運用處) held an online exhibition of "Migrant Workers, Family Members" (我的移工家人), from the process of the migrant workers coming to Taiwan to work, the migrant workers’ daily work, their dreams and expectations, and the Taiwan employers’ acceptance and tolerance of migrant workers. The family and the migrant workers need to understand the concepts and the knowledge to travel the road of long-term care together. It is hoped that the society will understand migrant workers from different perspectives, see their contribution to Taiwan society, and cooperate with them for long-term care family life in the future.
