Harms
Harm 1
Under the status quote, the lack of foreign white collars will
result in decrease of
international professional experience, decreasing the
professionalism of Taiwan.There are only 25,404 white collar
foreign residents, which would make them 1
percent of Taiwans 23,188,087people population. This is from
July 2011
Harm 2
Under the status quote, the amount of foreign white collars in
Taiwan is decreasing,
harming the economy as well as the quality of work in Taiwanese
companies.
28,378 in 2007 -27,353 in 2008-25,404 in 2009
Facing the economic downturn, Taiwan-based companies may have
also tightened
their belts by freezing the hiring of expensive foreign
executives. The job category of
white collar foreigners that showed the greatest decline last
year was the professional
skilled workers, which dropped from 17,254 in 2007 to 14,428 in
2009

Harm 4
Under ther status quote, the Council of Labor Affairs only
streamlines the application
process for workers from Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines
and Thailand, thus
affecting the races of white collar workers, affecting the
Taiwanese view towards
foreigners and the economy.
The Council of Labor Affairs has streamlined procedures for the
introduction of alien
workers, who are drawn only from countries that are friendly
towards Taipei and
appropriately regulate outbound employment seekers. Currently,
workers from
Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand are permitted
to enter Taiwan.

Harm 5
4. Under the status quo, restrictions set on white collars will
limit the expansion of
economy.Evidence: The China Postreported that a meeting was held
by the Council of Labor
Affairs (CLA) to discuss the possibility of relaxing some of the
current restrictions on
hiring foreigners as white-collar employees. But having more
foreign white-collar
employees might well be a boon to Taiwan's economy. Instead of
taking away local
jobs, these workers could actually assist in enlarging the
economic pie,
Needs
Need 1We need a system that ensures more white collar resident
aliens.
Need 2
We need more professionals in the sports field.
Need 3
We need a system that is non-racist.
Significance
Taiwanese economy is suffering from the lack of white-collar
resident alien workers
because it shows a foreign and native uninterest between each
other. The lack of
foreign workers in fields Taiwan isnt as advanced in would harm
the professions. The
lack of cultural diversity causes cultural unacceptance and
racism. All this affects
outsiders view towards Taiwan and thus affects the
communications between the
countries.
