According to MSNBC news, we Taiwanese might still have chances to fight for our own way in mainland China. Nike, the footwear giant, indicates that there are several obvious and also serious problems they encounter right now in China due to the poor and deplorable conditions the Chinese labor hold. Nike’s spokesman straightly points out the situation – inadequate management, excessive overtime and workers using false documents to get jobs, Well, then I must say I bet it’s not that worse here in Taiwan.
I think it is a common situation in those foreign companies who tend to seek lower labor cost in China. The rapid change in Chinese labor markets has brought out several shortcomings on labor rights. And that’s what foreign companies tried to demand from the Chinese authorities.
From this point, we can see that our Taiwanese labor structure is more integrated and has adequate legislation to cover up those hard workers. Though it seems to have many job opportunities there in mainland China, still the working condition should be the priority while considering to make a living there.
Also, we should be confident in ourselves because we are well-educated not just in our proficiency, but also the morality, ways to be a righteous man. The morality or the central value of a man cannot be seen until they were hired for several years. Take the previous financial scandal which was really immense in France, one employee of Société Générale, one of the biggest back in France, has been caught for illegal acts for over-loaning with a huge amount of money. And things that appeared to be unbelievable is that he has worked for SG for more 3 years and always with good-record.
Frankly, it has nothing to do with his proficiency but his morality. I think we Taiwanese are better in this way, perhaps it’s because we’re deeply-influenced by the Confucius values.
