At the end of last year, just as the Legislative Yuan's session was concluding, the Executive Yuan urgently pushed through two employment promotion programs worth a total of NT $ 7 billion-the Expanding Public Works Construction Program and the Expanding Employment Through Public Service Program. The special budget is anticipated to be allocated shortly and provides tens of thousands of unemployed workers with emergency employment and hope for a better year.
去年底，在立法院會期即將結束前，行政院十萬火急地送出總額共七百億的兩項促進就業法案──「擴大公共建設方案」及「公共服務擴大就業方案」，希望以特別預算的方式儘速通過，讓數萬名失業勞工得以緊急就業，過一個好年。
