I know in the mainland employers don't want politics discussed in class, having late night guests or going out later at night can be impossible (if living at school), and foreigners can be honored guests or targets for anti-foreigner heckling (or rare violence). Does this hold true in Taiwan? How culturally conservative is Taiwan comparitavely? Any other key differences?
