The NIA has launched "Peace and Safety Project", which was planned and integrated by National
Security Bureau, and also in coordination with the Coast Guard Administration, Military Police

Command, Investigation Bureau, and National Police Agency. These governmental agencies have
combined their resources to investigate illegal activities, collaborating in the investigation of missing
foreign workers in order to reduce the number of missing foreign workers in Taiwan and deter illegal
employment, agencies, and human trafficking. Illegal employers and agencies have been listed as

targets for investigation to prevent missing foreign workers from finding illegal employment, resulting
in 21,846 undocumented migrant worker in 2017.

In order to protect legal marriages, the NIA conducts home visits and interviews of Taiwanese
spouses in Taiwan before their Mainland Chinese spouse enters Taiwan (in the name of family reunion).

In addition, the NIA also has stricter border interviews and face-to-face interviews to prevent fake
marriages, illegal activities and workers working illegally. Besides, the NIA conducts the law of interviews
and experience sharing in order to enhance the professional abilities of the interviews. In 2017, there
were 9,346 interviews of Mainland Chinese spouses, including 1,059 cases of failed interviews in Taiwan,
as well as 69 cases being rejected at the border, and 36 cases failing on the second interview.

The NIA strengthened the dynamic management of Mainland Chinese professionals and business
people and formulated "The Implementation Plan of Interview and Visits for People from Mainland
China Area Entering Taiwan for Professional and Business Purposes". The NIA requests every authority
in charge to fully understand and participate in the interviews and visits. In 2017, there were 652 cases

submitted for investigation.
