| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中興大學 === 國家政策與公共事務研究所 === 104 === The basic rights of aboriginal Taiwanese have been ignored for a long time. Due to the suppression from the new immigrants to Taiwan, the aboriginal Taiwanese, who first inhabited the island and once led a prosperous society, have lost their social system and culture. Moreover, the aboriginal people were considered to live a poverty life. In recent years, due to the international trends and protests from the aboriginal people, the Government begins to pay attention to the rights of the aboriginal and try to improve their poor lives. First, the government legislates to protect the aboriginals’ rights to work. Second, it founds Council of Indigenous Peoples, which is responsible for aboriginal affairs. Last, the government establishes Employment Services Network, in order to remove the barriers to employment. With all these means, we hope we can improve the long lasting employment difficulties and the unfair to the aboriginal people.
