Most international students still gave
positive evaluations to the social order of Taiwan.
Recently, more and more students chose to study abroad, and it
raised a serious question about safety of returned students. It seemed easy for
everyone to face these personal safety problems such as being targets of rascals, however, international students
had more chances because of their foreign background. Some students would be
considered rich due to their crossing sea to come to another country, and some
would be deceived because of language gap. So I interviewed some international
students to ask their attitude toward their personal safety.
When I asked if they heard
the news that a Japanese student was raped and killed by a taxi driver in
Taiwan, Cheung Ming, a nineteen-year-old girl who come from Hong Kong, said,
“No, I didn’t heard it before. But it sound terrible. I would never take taxi
alone at night. Moreover, I would avoid going out at night.” Compared to girls,
Jaime Li, a twenty-year-old boy that come from Panama, were not afraid about
these thing at all. And I kept asking whether this kind of cases change their
original intentions to come to Taiwan , Cheung Ming said what
Taiwan attracted her was our cheaper tuition so it didn't matter, and Jaime indicated that terrible
things happened everywhere, thus I concluded that they all tended to
keep their choices.
After my interview, I was a little relieved that horrible news wouldn't retreat international students from coming to Taiwan, not like some Chinese parents would be worried about their children’s safety and start to exclude some countries. However, we still had to make effort to maintain social order to let more students or visitors to come safely.
