'Foreign Laborer VS Foreign Migrant Worker'—Is It Discrimination or a Rectification Movement?
This article questions and criticizes the 'rectification' movement of renaming 'foreign laborer' (Wai-lao) to 'foreign migrant worker' (Yi-gong) in recent years. The author believes that the term 'laborer' (Laogong) is neutral itself, and its being regarded as discriminatory stems from the promoters' own discrimination against 'laborers' or specific races. The article satirizes such rectification movements as 'having too much time' and argues that whether the name changes or not is unrelated to actual moral and human nature issues, citing Chen Chu's performance in the Kaohsiung MRT migrant worker protest case as an argument.
