Over 40 African students duped into skinning chickens in Taiwanese factory from scholarship program that offered applicants "hands-on practical and work experience" while earning a Bachelor's in Business Administration

TAIPEI - Over 40 Eswatini students who thought they were realizing their dream of studying abroad were disheartened when they encountered harsh working conditions and long hours in a chicken processing plant in western Taiwan.

In yet another case of foreign university students being coerced into working in factories, UDN reports that in 2018, MingDao University recruited over 40 students from Eswatini to take part in a work-study program.

The ministry then told the university that the students could continue their education at the school but that the institution could not ask them to work to offset their tuition and fees; it also barred the school from enrolling foreign students in 2021.
