Promoting People with Disabilities |
For a long time, visually impaired people cannot be as free as ordinary people in their daily lives, learning, and interpersonal communication because of their relative inconvenience in independent mobility, and they are even subject to all types of restrictions and difficulties in self-realization. For disadvantaged people, general social welfare mechanisms and facilities can only provide support in their daily lives, but these are far from adequate for embodying their self-worth. How to help visually impaired people rebuild their confidence and dignity is an issue of the first priority. MA-tek actively responds to the care for disadvantaged groups, recruits people with disabilities and hires visually impaired people to provide massage services, and provides more opportunities for disadvantaged groups to integrate into the social system, so as to realize social value and enhance self-recognition, and also to provide the Company colleagues with a way to relieve stress and boost spirits through massage services to improve their work efficiency. |
Support Taiwan’s Agricultural Products |
Taiwan is currently the country with the largest planting area of sugar apples, the best production technology, and the best quality in the world, and Taitung, especially, is the most important planting place. Compared with the traditional sugar apple, the pulp of pineapple sugar apples is chewier, with high sweetness and a bit of sourness. Because it combines the aroma of pineapple, it is also called the “Pineapple (Prosperous) Sugar Apple.” In the past, Taiwan’s best pineapple sugar apples were mainly exported. In 2021, due to the impact of policy on the export of pineapple sugar apples, MA-tek purchased 500 boxes of pineapple sugar apples from the 40th Group of the Taimali Sugar Apple Agriculture Production and Marketing Groups, to support the local fruit with practical actions. Through this purchasing opportunity, MA-tek customers and colleagues can taste these delicious fruits from Taimali Township, Taitung County. The fruits are plump, rich, sweet and nutritious. |
