 2017-01-2003:00 UNIONIZED? The company said it has a deal with the Taxi Driver Labor Union of the ROC, but a government official said it would maintain a crackdown on illegal servicesBy Shelley Shan / Staff reporterUber Taiwan yesterday announced plans to launch a new service called UberTAXI next month by working with local taxi operators.However, the Ministry of Transportation and Communications said the company would remain an illegal service provider and would be ordered to cease operations if it continues to hire drivers who do not hold a license to operate commercial vehicles.Uber Taiwan made the seemingly conciliatory move after amendments to the Highway Act （公路法） took effect earlier this month, raising the maximum fine for illegal taxi operators to NT$25 million （US$790,564）.Uber said that the service is a partnership with the Taxi Driver Labor Union of the Republic of China, adding that it would initially be offered in the Greater Taipei area.People could call a cab by using the Uber app and would be charged based on standard rates set by taxis operating in Taipei, Uber said.Despite its partnership with the union, the company said it has no intention to drop its UberX, UberBlack and UberAssist services, which use non-licensed drivers.“The introduction of UberTAXI shows that a sharing economy and taxis can coexist in Taiwan’s healthy, vibrant and diversified market, which benefits both drivers and passengers,” Uber Taiwan general manager Ku Li-kai （顧立楷） said. “The partnership [with the union] demonstrates Uber’s commitment to the Taiwanese market. We will continue our negotiations with government agencies and hope that the government would draft appropriate laws to regulate ride-sharing services.”Union chairman Lin Sheng-he （林聖河） said that it is looking forward to its partnership with Uber Taiwan, as the technology developed by the company can help cab drivers find more passengers and increase their income.Passengers will have another safe, reliable and quality service option, he said.Lin said that 60 to 70 percent of union members said in a survey that they were willing to be Uber drivers if there is another platform out there that matches the service requests with the taxi drivers.However, the partnership would cease if the company continues to dispatch illegal taxi drivers, he said.Taipei City Professional Drivers’ Union president Cheng Li-chia （鄭力嘉） said that Lin made a unilateral decision to work with Uber without consulting other groups.Department of Railways and Highways specialist Hu Ti-chi （胡迪琦） said that the ministry is not yet clear about the details of the partnership, but it is glad to see that Uber has decided to work with taxi operators.However, Hu added: “Even if part of Uber’s operation is legal now, we will continue cracking down on its illegal services. That is, if it continues hiring drivers who do not have a valid taxi driver’s license.”Uber will have to apply to become a legal transport service provider if it dispatches taxi drivers and charges passengers for the service, she added.Uber would not have any legal issue if it simply serves as a non-profit platform that matches taxi drivers with passengers requesting cab services, she said.However, it becomes a legal issue if Uber pays and dispatches drivers to offer services, because it is not a registered transport service operator, she said.Statistics from the Directorate General of Highways showed that as of Friday last week, Uber has been fined a total of NT$96.49 million: NT$73.25 million for the company and NT$23.24 million for its簡單學英文的好方法 drivers.新聞來源：TAIPEI TIMES ▲員警戴上「雞寶寶Q頭」與樂山成員同樂。（圖／記者林煒傑翻攝） 記者林煒傑／新北報導 農曆年節將至，蘆洲分局員警為了關懷地方弱勢，於歲末之際帶上精心設計的「雞寶寶Q頭」，前往樂山教養院與大家同歡，此院主要收容13到15歲領有手冊的智能障礙者，分局長也準備小小的加菜金，希望能盡一份心力，讓大家開心過個好年。 在舞蹈表演同時，員警們也舉辦防竊、防搶、反詐騙的犯罪預防宣導活動，用有獎徵答的方式，將防騙觀念帶入表演中，樂山的成員們看到平常嚴肅的員警，竟然帶著可愛雞頭活潑表演，覺得非常親切，甚至學著舞台上員警的動作跟著跳了起來，也相約以後一定要再一起過年！ 妳先閉眼再張開男視訊女友上吊亡 見警車整隊敬禮！國小舉手到國中 洪慈綪涉收回扣夫深夜遭收押 「你求情他要命」30秒酒駕片太震驚 高雄4小時兩槍擊！5大學英語線上教學生險遭爆頭 集體燒炭破案！姑姑想死4女1對1英文補習班推薦陪葬 即／土豪哥改列嫌疑人！檢25日傳喚 亂撕貼紙遭制止父怒嗆賣場店員 模特兒說成年了被攝自學英文雜誌影師性侵 國中女「被誰用過？」寫信淚訴 淘寶網購外來種螞蟻恐釀生態危機 4歲男童尿床慘遭狠心父虐死棄屍山區 尾牙墜樓亡同事：電梯門僅掛著 遊台遭色運將染指多益補習班韓女公開信曝光 工商時報【龍益雲╱桃園報導】 華韡電子（5481）董事會率先印刷電路板產業敲定4月10日召開股東常會，除報告投資福祿壽園區、假扣押前董事長曾明潤概況，也將承認去年營運及虧損撥補。華韡去年8月2日敲定以1.25億元取得福祿壽園區1,250萬特別股，相當於3年期可轉換公司債，保證年息6％。 華韡也曾宣布，擬增設500萬美元海外子公司，目前仍未揭露細節，公司透露投資福祿壽是跨入環保第一步，未來視效益再跨第2步，但也鎖定環保相關領域。
