conscripted in 2017; they received basic and specialized training, and were subsequently deployed
to serve in service units.

In order to understand the living and service conditions of substitute services draftees, to urge them
duly to obey rules, to discover whatever problems might exist and to overcome shortcomings, the MOI
carries out evaluations in cooperation with service units and user organizations. In 2017, the MOI made

935 regular and irregular supervisory visits. Further, in order to enhance the morale of substitute services
draftees, to strengthen their discipline and to increase service efficiency, the MOI carries out legal education
activities for substitute services draftees. In 2017, 133 lectures on legal education were held for substitute
services draftees. The MOI re-educates those substitute services draftees who violate rules or neglect duties

repeatedly and yet refuse to mend their ways. In 2017, 18 draftees were sent to the counseling education
held at Chengkung Mountain Counseling Education Camp. Also, 33 mental health courses were held for
over 3,229 substitute services draftees to promote their psychological development and to help them to
adjust to service circumstances.

In order to assist draftees to face drug issues, every newly enlisted substitute services draftee must take
a urine test and any draftee who has a positive test result will be recorded and required to receive a series
of medical counselling. Moreover, draftees are expected to cultivate the care for disadvantaged groups,
to actively attend public welfare service and to learn the spirit of serving others. In 2017, a total of 1,797

organizations have participated in the execution of various public welfare service plans. Among these plans,
10 of these programs were carried out with the help of more than 80,000 draftees. In order to execute
