Good old Taiwan - the (last?) land of the free.

The thing about Taiwan is they've lived through fascism - found a way out - so they don't forget what it's like - or how easy it is to slip back into it.

Taiwan News: Employers in Taiwan are prohibited from requiring interviewees to present a certificate indicating they have been vaccinated against COVID-19, according to the labor authorities.

In response to complaints from job seekers who were asked to provide proof of inoculation, Wu Shu-ying (吳淑瑛), an official at the Workforce Development Agency, said this is a violation of privacy protection rules.

Job applicants are advised to report such violations to the relevant authorities. Violators risk a fine of between NT$60,000 (US$2,165) and NT$300,000, pursuant to the Employment Service Act.

Meanwhile in Australia if you tried reporting an employer for the same, you'd vilified, sacked, probably fined/jailed for 'incitement'.
