| Taiwan has decided to extend the length of stay for foreign workers to meet growing demand from the island's ageing population. Parliament has passed a bill to extend their stay to 12 years from nine years following appeals from local families employing foreign helpers. The number of foreign labourers reached a record 425,660 by the end of 2011, partly due to surging demand for live-in carers in Taiwan's rapidly ageing society. | ||||||
