We are impressed by the stories from Indonesian migrants in Taiwan, aside from the display of work describing the daily life, the custom of Indonesian. More specially, it’s touching seeing the wall of notes showing the thankfulness for migrant contribution and the understanding of their difficulties.
It strengthens STARTBOARD team’s belief and passion that together, we can create more values for the society.
