Austronesian Language Introduction - Truku Tribe - Taiwan
"During a municipal indigenous speech contest in Southern Taiwan, we interviewed a teacher from the Truku tribe who agreed to share a little of his native language. Taiwan has 16 indigenous Austronesian languages that are actually taught in public schools to indigenous students, and they hold language contests to reward and motivate students. Indigenous teachers are in high demand, since every indigenous child in Taiwan, no matter where they live, are required to be offered a teacher to teach them their indigenous language."
