[Editor's Note: To mark the International Migrants Day on Dec. 18, CNA is releasing a multipart series taking a look at the lives of migrant workers in Taiwan. Migrant workers play a major role in the local economy and society and bring along with them their traditions, culture and faith, which make Taiwan a more multicultural and vibrant society. The around 720,000 migrant workers from Southeast Asian countries represent about 3 percent of the country's population. Multiple stories will be published in the coming months.]
