In order to strive for international talents to stay in Taiwan, the government promoted the "permit-free" work visa for overseas students within two years after graduation at the beginning of this year to encourage outstanding foreign students to find employment in the country. However, ten months after the launch of this policy, there has been no public concrete results, which caused DPP legislator Wang Dingyu to question. The Overseas Chinese Affairs Committee once asked A and answered B during the inquiry. Later, it was said that it would intermediate the data with the Ministry of Labor. Wang Dingyu asked the Overseas Chinese Affairs Committee to track and disclose the relevant results as soon as possible to implement the overseas Chinese personnel to take root in Taiwan.

Legislator Wang Dingyu asked that the world is actively striving for young and outstanding labor force. The United States is an example. Now Taiwan also has this condition, including white-collar workers and blue-collar workers. The Overseas Chinese Affairs Council launched a policy exempting overseas Chinese students from employment within two years after graduation at the beginning of this year. How to track the current number of people? What are the data on those who actually entered the Taiwan job market after staying in Taiwan, industry distribution, and visa renewal after two years?
Unexpectedly, Li Yanhui first said that "as far as I know, it is in the hands of the Ministry of Labor." Zhang Wenhua, director of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Commission of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Commission, then said that the "Immigration Department" should have relevant data, which triggered Wang Dingyu's dissatisfaction with "Ask A and Answer B" and bluntly said, "That is your business. Not sure what you are doing?" Later, he pointed out that there is an API data interface with the Ministry of Labor, which can count the number of people, people and employment categories. However, in the data disclosure part, an integration platform has not yet been established. Wang Dingyu asked the Overseas Chinese Affairs Council to follow up as soon as possible.
Regarding the "70-point evaluation system" after the two-year period, the Overseas Chinese Affairs Council stated that the current scoring standard is an objective whole-point system (such as 10 or 20 points for each item). The current threshold is not difficult, but it will still make every effort to help students meet the standards.
