Catholic priest works for human rights
Ron Brownlow has written another great article on on the difficulties faced by migrant workers in Taiwan. He tells the story of Reverend Peter Nguyen Van Hung, a Catholic priest who established the Vietnamese Migrant Workers & Brides Office in Taoyuan.
He provides assistance to Vietnamese migrants who have been victims of labor exploitation or sexual abuse. This help involves providing shelter, education, counselling and legal assistance. More information about the work of the office can be found at www.taiwanact.net. The website has English, Chinese and Vietnamese versions. It contains a lot of information about the work done by the office.
