00:00Over 90% of people disagree with President Lai Qingde's newest proposal,
00:05saying all families with children should be allowed to hire foreign caretakers.
00:09This is according to polls from civic groups representing working mothers,
00:13nannies and migrant workers.
00:14The policy idea is being discussed by the health and labor ministries
00:18and will advance to the cabinet next week.
00:20But these groups say President Lai's proposal,
00:23which aims to relieve pressure on working mothers,
00:25won't solve most people's problems.
00:30Others also raise concerns about the working conditions of migrant caretakers.
00:46They say many foreign workers lack labor protections and formal child care training.
00:51And there are worries about local licensed nannies
00:53having to compete against cheaper foreign nannies who work around the clock.
00:58Civic groups say the policy would only benefit parents who can afford a live-in nanny,
01:03while others still struggle to balance full-time jobs and child rearing.
01:07For mothers in Taipei too, a worry seems to be the foreign caretakers' lack of training and cultural and language barriers.
01:28We think STAWERS is no longer means to finance themselves.
01:30Still don't understand them.
01:32Okay, I feel like that.
01:33I think I have to understand the kids.
01:35I think the kids are going to take the time to try to fit.
01:37Because the kids are not just listening to them.
01:39This is a good way to get the kids.
01:41So if they have a child in their own life.
01:45For the mother's sake, it is a great help.
01:48If it is the state of the country and the state of the country,
01:50we will still be able to get the state of the country.
01:53We will have a choice for the country.
01:55But in the state of the country,
02:00the state of the country has no better to do that.
02:02We have to do it for the first time.
02:03We have to do it for the first time.
02:04If you want to do it for the first time,
02:06you just need to accept it.
