"These results are far better than were anticipated," says Meng. He explains that they had expected many more people to apply and had therefore set the premiums at 1 % of the Labor Insurance premium. So far, the actual payouts have been equivalent to a premium of only about 0.4 %, leaving a significant surplus.
「這個結果比當初的預期好太多了，」孟藹倫指出，開辦之初預估申請者會很多，因此將費率訂為勞保費率的 1％，而迄今實發金額折合費率約為 0.4％，結餘甚多。
