A needlessly cruel law is the regulation that when minor children of foreigners here become twenty, they can no longer remain in Taiwan on their parents visa. This is a simple issue to fix, and one that affects a number of families. Ralph Jensen, whose daughter has become the face of this issue, writes:
My wife and I started a project to encourage the Taiwan government to relax APRC regulations for spouses and children of APRC holders.
There's an online petition at http://www.change.org/petitions/nia-keep-families-together but our main focus is PR through Facebook, newspaper articles and TV interviews. (See links on petition site or Facebook page.)A video of Ralph's daughter speaking on the topic.
