Indonesian migrant workers in Taipei are transitioning into culinary entrepreneurship by leveraging their experiences and savings in Taiwan.

One individual, Sri Purwanti, established a halal Indonesian restaurant, Kedai Sri Rahayu, in Taipei’s Zhongzheng District to serve the local Muslim community and the Indonesian diaspora. 

Another former migrant worker, Tati Purwanti, is utilizing previous business experience from Indonesia—where she managed a bubble tea venture—to operate a Cirebon porridge business in Taipei following economic challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
