Abstract
After the first transfer of power in 2000, the policy for migrant workers had quantitative and qualitative changes.ince 1989, the KMT government launched the migrant workers policy. The amount of migrant workers increased year by year till Chen Shui-Bian took over the power in 2000. Chen carried out the shrink policy from 2000 to 2003. Because of the political and economic factors, Chen’s promise of cutting 15,000 migrant workers every year was unable to cash. After 2004, considering the multiple factors, including Chen’s reelection, economic development and party competition, Chen’s policy shifted again. The amount of migrant workers started to increase slightly.s for qualitative change, Chen Shui-Bian government claimed to improve and protect the right of migrant workers, not only to release the pressure of shrink policy, but also to increase the opportunity to get in touch with foreign nations. The change was not thorough. Thailand workers of Kaohsiung Rapid Transit stroked for fair treat in 2006. The sudden death of former national policy adviser Liu Xia revealed the serious problem of management.
