Protecting the rights of Indonesian migrantsBy Hasan Basri Maulana Firmansyah 傅翰森Taiwan is a democratic country that respects the value of tolerance. This is evident in the many organizations or groups that aim to accommodate Muslims, such as PCINU Taiwan — the local branch of Indonesian Islamic organization Nahdlatul Ulaman — and the association of Indonesian Muslims in Taiwan. On April 22, at least 17 cities across Taiwan held Eid al-Fitr prayers, local Islamic organizations reported. Apart from representing Indonesia in Taiwan, IETO should fight for the rights of Indonesian migrants. More specifically, in the context of the right to worship, it should not only distribute information to migrants, but also establish direct communication with local agencies, so that migrant workers’ rights can be protected.
