Indonesia and Taiwan to discuss new migrant worker policy again


TAIPEI, March 12 (Bernama): Indonesia and Taiwan are scheduled to hold a fresh round of talks later this month in a bid to resolve a dispute over the latter's pending policy on placement fees for its migrant workers, Minister of Labour Hsu Ming-chun has announced, according to the Central News Agency.

Hsu said the discussions will follow similar talks last December, which failed to reach a resolution on Indonesia's new policy that will require Taiwanese employers to pay part of the placement fees for Indonesian migrant workers.
