ChallengesChallenges << Immigrant laborImmigrant labor >>
・ Most service workers at Karaoke move every a few months, therefore, need to consider efficient activity ways toward both including new workers and long stayed workers.
・ Some workers don’t have ID card or passport, therefore, when polices patrol karaoke bar while having activities, activities cannot continue. SHARE need to urge polices to cooperate.
・ When working with hospital staff and karaoke owner, we faced some gaps between them and SHARE in terms of understanding of services workers and HIV/AIDS.
