Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.
Government pledges to reduce carbon emissions by 26-30 percent by 2030
The government says it plans to further reduce carbon emissions to reflect
the island's commitment to net zero.
Speaking at the third meeting of the Presidential Office's climate change
committee, President Lai Ching-te announced what he called the government's
"more ambitious ( 有雄心的) carbon reduction targets."
According to Lai, his administration will work to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions by between 26 and 30-per cent by 2030 compared to 2005 levels.
Lai told the committee that the revised reductions mean Taiwan's carbon
emissions should be reduced between 30 and 34-per cent by 2032.
The president went on to say it's crucial for the people of Taiwan to take
more active steps in fulfilling a responsibilities to the international
community.
TaiwanICDF opens applications for overseas volunteers
The Taiwan I-C-D-F foreign aid agency has announced that's accepting
applications for its annual volunteer program that provides humanitarian and
other assistance to the nation's diplomatic allies and less-developed
countries.
The agency is funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
And it says it will recruit 44 volunteers to work in areas such as
information technology, public health, veterinary science, nutritional
science, nursing, health education, mental health and epidemiological
(流行病學的) statistics.
Taiwanese nationals aged 20 or above are eligible (有資格的) to apply.
Those selected will be deployed to one of 11 countries in the Asia Pacific,
the Caribbean, Africa, and Central and South America for six months to a
year, it added.
The deadline for all applications is February 10.
Cold weather forecast in run-up to Lunar New Year
The Central Weather Administration says low temperatures and rain can be
expected ahead of Lunar New Year's Day next Wednesday.
A strong continental cold air mass is forecast to approach Taiwan on Monday -
sending the mercury down to below 10 degrees in some areas.
The cold front is forecast to be at strongest on Lunar New Year's Eve and
into Lunar New Year's Day - when parts of the north and east could see lows
of 9-degrees.
Other area will see lows of between 12 and 14-degrees next Tuesday and
Wednesday.
The weather administration says snow is also likely to fall at elevations
over 2,000-meters in the north and east.
The cold front is expected to weaken from next Thursday and temperatures
rebound.
However, another cold front is expected to approach the island on the second
to last day of the nine-day Lunar New Year holiday - once again bringing down
temperatures in the north and east.
Trump to Visit States Hit by Natural Disasters
US President Donald Trump will today visit North Carolina and California, two
American states recently ravaged (摧殘) by natural disasters.
Benji Hyer reports.
UN Climate Interrupting Schooling
The United Nations Children's Fund says over 200 million children had their
schooling interrupted last year because of heatwaves, cyclones, flooding and
other extreme weather.
UNICEF says it amounted to one in seven school-going children across the
world being kept out of class at some point in 2024 because of climate
crises.
The new UNICEF report released today also outlines (概述) how some countries
saw hundreds of their schools destroyed, with low-income nations in Asia and
sub-Saharan Africa hit especially hard.
But while deadly floods and cyclones hit the world in 2024, UNICEF says
heatwaves were “the predominant climate hazard shuttering schools last
year."

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 27-points this morning from Friday's close, at 22,548 on turnover of 5.5-billion N-T. The market closed lower on Friday, as selling was sparked by losses on Wall Street overnight following the launch of a trade war by the Trump administration. Overall losses were capped by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, but market watchers are warning that the local stock market will continue to struggle as long as the impact of tariffs remains. National Human Rights Commission members attend Tibet uprising event Members of the National Human Rights Commission have attended an annual march in Taipei organized by civic groups to commemorate the 1959 Tibetan uprising. Speaking at the event, commission vice chair Wang Yu-ling said it's the first time members of the agency have attended the annual event since its founding in August 2020. According to Wang, what the Chinese government has done in Tibet since the 1950s could be considered (把…當作) an act of "ethnic cleansing and genocide," "human rights have no borders" and "today's Tibet could be the future of Taiwan." The march was attended by some 100 participants. India largest of 90 buyer countries at Taipei machinery show The External Trade Development Council says of the countries that made deals at the 2025 Taipei International Machine Tool Show, India was the biggest buyer. The show took place last week at the Nangang Exhibition Hall in Taipei under the main theme "AI and Robotics." The event attracted (吸引了) more than 4,160 buyers from 90 countries who made deals with over 1,000 participating exhibitors (參展商). The five countries that made the most deals during the trade show were India, Japan, China, South Korea and Malaysia. US Palestinian Activist Arrested US Immigration and Customs Enforcement has arrested a Palestinian activist who helped lead Columbia University protests. AP correspondent Julie Walker reports Argentina Flooding Leaves 15 Dead Officials in Argentina say heavy rains that flooded a city on the country's east coast have killed at least 15 people. Rescue teams on Sunday searched for dozens reported missing, after the floodwaters resulting from rains that began pelting (急降，猛落) the city of Bahia Blanca on Friday. Crews have evacuated more than 1,450 people from the city located south of the capital of Buenos Aires. Those evacuated include patients from a local hospital. Some 300 millimeters of rain have fallen in Bahia Blanca in recent days, when the historical monthly average is about 129 millimeters. No rain was forecast for the next 72 hours. Nepal Protests Supporting Former King Thousands of supporters have greeted Nepal’s former king in capital Kathmandu and demanded his abolished monarchy be reinstated and Hinduism brought back as a state religion. An estimated 10,000 supporters of Gyanendra Shah blocked the main entrance to Kathmandu’s Tribhuvan International Airport on Sunday as he arrived from a tour of western Nepal. Hundreds of riot police blocked the protesters from entering the airport and there was no violence (暴力行為). Massive street protests in 2006 forced Gyanendra to give up his authoritarian rule but many Nepalis have since grown frustrated with the republic and a struggling economy. That was the I.C.R.T.

Parent group calls for stop to publication of student test scores The Taiwan Parent Education Association is urged high schools cease publishing the scores of Taiwan's aptitude tests for high school and college admission. According to the association, some high schools publish the names of students who achieved (達到了) a perfect score on the General Scholastic Ability Test and this practice causes students stress over their test scores .. … and contradicts the Ministry of Education's direction to not use test scores as the only metric for being admitted to or applying to universities. The association says high schools should stop publishing students' test scores, and the media should stop reporting on the issue to allow more students to be vetted by universities based on their achievements in a range of areas, not just their test scores. Tai Tzu-ying career tribute exhibition opens in Taipei An exhibition honoring former world No. 1 badminton player Tai Tzu-ying is now taking place in Taipei is celebration of her career. Titled "Ying-credible Career -- Tai Tzu Ying Tribute Exhibition," the event has been organized by her long-time sponsor Victor. It's taking place until March 16 at the Songshan Cultural and Creative Park. The exhibition features many of Tai's player credentials (證書), along with game-used shuttlecocks, shoes, and medals-including 32 open titles. Tai is still recovering from knee injuries that plagued her throughout 2024. Tai previously stated that she plans to retire from competitive badminton at the end of last year, but she has not yet made any official announcements concerning her career. US Ukraine Talks in Saudi Arabia Next Week Officials from the U.S. and Ukraine are planning to meet in Saudi Arabia next week to work on a structure for a possible ceasefire with Russia. It comes after a week of turmoil (動盪) in relations, including arguments between the leaders of Ukraine and the US at the White House. Caroline Malone reports. Australia Underage Gunman Detained on Plane Police say a 17-year-old boy with a loaded shotgun boarded a plane in Australia before being restrained by a pilot and two passengers. Police and a passenger said the boy climbed through a hole in the airport fence and posed as (冒充為) a maintenance worker to board the plane Thursday. The boy was disarmed (拿走武器) and detained before police arrived on the scene at Avalon Airport in Victoria state. Police said Friday the boy had been charged with unlawfully taking control of an aircraft, possessing a firearm and other crimes. Mexico Monarch Butterfly Numbers Rebound The number of monarch butterflies wintering in the mountains west of Mexico City, rebounded this year, doubling the area they covered in 2024 despite the stresses of climate change. Mexico’s Commission for National Protected Areas said that this year, butterflies covered 1.79 hectares compared to only 0.9 hectares the year before. Last year’s figure represented a 59% drop from 2023, the second lowest level since record keeping began. The annual butterfly count doesn’t calculate the individual (個) number of butterflies, but rather the area they cover as they gather on tree branches in the mountain forests. That was the I.C.R.T.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 58-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,930 on turnover of $5.9-billion N-T. The market moved sharply higher on Wednesday following a significant rebound for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing - which closed the session with a rise of 2-per cent .. .. and that contributed about 160 points to the Tai-Ex's overall gains and sent the electronics index up by 1.43-per cent. FDA proposes relaxation of rules on Japanese beef imports The Food and Drug Administration has released a draft revision to regulations regarding Japanese bovine imports that, if implemented, would allow the importation (輸入) of beef from cattle of any age. Under current regulations, beef from Japan must meet several conditions, including being derived from cattle under 30 months of age, inspected by a veterinary officer, and produced by an officially-recognized factory. F-D-A Deputy Director-General Lin Jin-fu says the government is seeking to update the "Import regulations for Japanese beef and its products" to remove the age limit for Japanese cattle - similar to regulatory practices in the United States and Canada. However, Lin says each batch of cattle products from Japan will still require official veterinary certificates and be produced by "approved factories" to be allowed to enter Taiwan. US Supreme Court rejects Trump administration request to freeze foreign aid The US Supreme Court has rejected (拒絕) an emergency request by the Trump administration to freeze nearly 2 billion dollars in foreign aid. The order requires the government to release the funds to aid groups for work already completed. Ira Spitzer reports. Greece Protests Outside Parliament Protesters have launched gasoline bombs and fireworks in clashes with police outside Greece's parliament. The protest Wednesday in central Athens is part of a nationwide wave of demonstrations calling for politicians to be held accountable for a 2023 rail disaster that claimed 57 lives. Scores of youths set fire to trash bins and police in riot gear (防暴裝備) responded with tear gas and baton charges. There have been no immediate reports of injuries or arrests. The fierce clashes erupted hours after opposition parties challenged Greece’s center-right government with a no-confidence motion in parliament. Victims' relatives want politicians to be held accountable for failures that led to the head-on collision in February 2023. Only rail officials have been charged. Canada on Trump Tariffs A senior Canadian government official says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is not willing to lift Canada’s retaliatory tariffs if Trump leaves any tariffs on Canada. The official was not authorized to speak publicly on the matter, only saying Trump and Trudeau spoke by phone around midday. Other Canadian officials publicly echoed (附和) Trudeau's position. Canada's commerce secretary has said there might be carveouts (從整體中獲取一些東西) coming to the 25% tariffs placed on Canada and Mexico by President Donald Trump, a softening of the U.S. position after Tuesday’s tax hike hurt the stock market, worried consumers and started a trade war.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex rebounded from recent losing sessions this morning - opening up 181-points yesterday's close, at 22,778 on turnover of 8.9-billion N-T. The market closed down by 0.7-per cent on Tuesday, but managed to recoup some of its early losses, as investor sentiment remained cautious in the wake of volatility on Wall Street overnight … .. which was sparked by U-S President Donald Trump confirming that tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico would go into effect later in the day. Premier touts TSMC's expanded US plan Premier Cho Jung-tai is voicing his support for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's new investment in the United States. According to Cho, government sees T-S-M-C's expanded investment positively, because it will boost Taiwan's competitive edge (競爭力) inthe global market, and "making Taiwan stronger is the common stance of the government and industry." Cho says the government has long been encouraging domestic industries to expand worldwide and is providing necessary assistance for such expansions. The premier also says he hopes T-S-M-C's investments will continue to create mutual benefits and a win-win situation with Taiwan's allies. Cabinet spokeswoman Michelle Lee says the U-S has become the top destination of Taiwanese investors, as local companies seek to extend their global reach and the U-S accounted for 30-per cent of Taiwan's total overseas investment last year. CPBL head reacts to WBC fine Chinese Professional Baseball League President Tsai Chi-chang is vowing to reflect on the reasons the national team was find 20,000 U-S dollars for violating regulations during last month's World Baseball Classic qualifiers at the Taipei Dome.

The M-L-B says movers were found to have used their phones in an office where equipment was stored - in violations of (違反) a rule banning players or team staff member from using electronic devices in all areas considered to be part of the competition. Tsai is admitted that mistakes were made, but stressing that he wasn't in the dugout during the qualifying games and that the C-P-B-L will accept the fine in accordance with the rules. US Investors to Buy Panama Canal Ports A consortium of US investors has agreed to buy majority stakes in two ports on the Panama canal from a Hong Kong-based company for nearly 20 billion dollars. The deal comes in the wake of allegations by the Trump administration that Chinese influence (影響) over the waterway poses a security risk to the US. Ira Spitzer reports. China Keeps 5Percent Growth Target Meanwhile… China is keeping its economic growth target at “around 5%” for 2025 despite a looming trade war with the United States and other headwinds (阻力，逆風). Premier Li Qiang announced the target in a report presented at the opening session of the National People's Congress today. The report says a target of around 5% is well aligned with the country's mid- and long-term development goals. The IMF has projected that China’s economy will grow 4.6% this year, down from 5% in 2024, according to Chinese government statistics. That was the I.C.R.T.

FM believes Taiwan see more opportunities than threats in Trump's China policy Foreign Minister Lin Chia-lung says he believes the confrontational policy being seen in Donald Trump's second U-S presidency toward China is more of an opportunity for Taiwan than a threat. According to Lin, the main focus of Trump's second term is in countering China … … and although countering China does not necessarily mean supporting Taiwan, the Trump administration's stance (立場) gives the island the opportunity to find common interests. Speaking during an interview with an online media outlet, Lin said for Taiwan's national interests, the government is finding interests shared with Washington and focusing on pushing policies where the interests of both countries are aligned. CDC reporting decline in flu case clinic visits The Centers for Disease Control says its been seeing a decline in the number of people seeking medical treatment for influenza-like symptoms. According to the C-D-C, there were 105,436 flu-like outpatient and emergency visits from between February 23 and March 1 -- a 24-per cent decline from the previous week.

Luo says the influenza is now expected to exit the epidemic phase by mid-March. US Trump Suspends Military Aide to Ukraine US President Donald Trump has ordered an immediate suspension of American military support for Ukraine, just days after his on-camera argument with the Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky. The White House says the suspension will remain (保持) in force until the Ukrainians demonstrate a "good faith commitment to peace". Our Washington Correspondent Simon Marks reports. Japan Fighting Forest Fire Japan is fighting a forest fire that has damaged dozens of homes and forced hundreds of residents to evacuate in a northeastern coastal city.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 319-points this morning from Thursday's close, at 22,734 on turnover of 13-billion N-T. The market lost ground on Thursday - the final trading day of the week due to the 228 holiday. The main board tumbled nearly 350-points during that session, despite Wall Street closing little changed overnight and Nvidia reporting strong profits for the last quarter. USAID funding cuts could impact Taiwan's health system A doctor at the Taipei City Hospital's Zhongxing Branch is warning that cuts to the U-S Agency for International Development could impact Taiwan's public health system, which "relies"(依賴) on internationally collected data. It comes after the U-S last month announced plans to eliminate more than 90-per cent of US-AID's foreign aid contracts, totaling more than 58-billion dollars. According Chiang Guan-yu, US-AID cuts will reduce (減少) information sharing between American health agencies and international organizations such as the World Health Organization - which in turn could negatively impact Taiwan. The Centers for Disease Control says although Taiwan is not a member of the W-H-O, there are other "friendly countries" besides the U-S that are willing to exchange epidemic prevention information. Another cold front to arrive tomorrow The Central Weather Administration is warning that another cold front will begin affecting (影響) the island from tomorrow - pushing the mercury down once again into the mid-teens. The cold front will see temperatures dropping by about 15-degrees from the highs seen in recent days and the cold weather is forecast to last into the coming weekend. It's expected to bring rain to much of the island from Wednesday - when highs of between 18 and 20 degrees are forecast for much of the island. However, the mercury could drop to as low 13-degrees in the north and center and to 14-degrees in the south. Israel cuts off Gaza aid to pressure Hamas to accept new ceasefire proposal Israel has cut off the entry of all food and other goods into Gaza in an echo of the siege (圍城) it imposed in the earliest days of its war with Hamas. AP correspondent Julie Walker reports Canada PM to Meet with King Charles Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will meet with King Charles III today to discuss U.S. President Donald Trump’s threats to make Canada the 51st state. Trudeau says he will discuss matters of importance to Canadians and said “nothing seems more important to Canadians right now than standing up for our sovereignty and our independence as a nation.” Charles is the head of state in Canada, which is a member of the British Commonwealth of former colonies. The king has come under criticism in Canada after Buckingham Palace declined (拒絕) to comment on Trump’s threats to annex Canada. Charles, who met Sunday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, has invited Trump to come to Scotland for a state visit. That was the I.C.R.T.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 44-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 23,446 on turnover of $4.5-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan broke a two-session falling streak Wednesday, as artificial intelligence stocks were boosted by expectations about an Nvidia Corp. investor conference later in the day. Analysts say after the index fell to the day's low of around 130 points, some bargain hunters jumped into the trading floor to pick up AI stocks, helping the broader market return to positive territory, and buying continued into the end of the session. Toddler hurt in Taichung blast discharged A 2 year-old girl from Macau, who sustained severe head injuries in the deadly gas explosion at a Taichung Shin Kong Mitsukoshi on February 13 has been discharged from China Medical University Hospital.

The girl's vital signs have stabilized after having been admitted in critical condition and a deep coma, though intracranial (顱內的) pressure remains a concern. The family was visiting Taiwan as a group of 7 when the explosion occurred. The girl's 85 year-old great-grandmother and 24 year-old uncle, who were both injured in the gas explosion and later transferred to the hospital for treatment, were also discharged Wednesday and are expected to return to Macau on the same flight.

Foreign Minister Winston Peters said Wednesday in Beijing that his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi took New Zealand's concerns on board. Last Friday, passenger flights between Australia and New Zealand hurriedly diverted (改變方向) after Chinese naval vessels warned pilots they were flying above a live-fire exercise. A Chinese Defense Ministry spokesperson said the drills were in compliance with international law and did not affect aviation safety. Vatican Pope Shows Slight Improvement The Vatican says Pope Francis has shown further slight improvement as he battles double pneumonia, but doctors still say his prognosis (預後) is still guarded (警戒著的 ). A CT chest scan taken Tuesday evening showed the “normal evolution” of an infection as it is being treated. And the Vatican's latest update says tests have confirmed an improvement. The slight kidney insufficiency detected a few days ago has receded, and Francis is continuing to receive respiratory physiotherapy. It was the first time the Vatican has said Francis was receiving physiotherapy to help him expel (排出) fluid from his lungs. Francis resumed work in the afternoon, after receiving the Eucharist in the morning. That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _____. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…

Shares in Taiwan extended their losses from a session earlier to close down by more than 270 points Tuesday, with the sell-off sparked by fears over future investments in artificial intelligence development, after Microsoft reportedly cancelled (取消) some leases for data center capacity. Analysts say investors rushed to cut their TSMC holdings as the company also faces uncertainty created by a tariff war launched by the Trump administration. Taiwan’s New Maritime Training Ship Sets Sail on Maiden Voyage to Japan A new maritime training ship is setting sail today on its maiden voyage to Tokyo, Japan.

After narrowly escaping a mercy-rule loss to Spain in the WBC Qualifiers opener last Friday, the home team got its revenge (復仇) at Taipei Dome. The win-or-go-home game was a back-and-forth battle from the start, and Taiwan captain Chen Chieh-hsien thanked fans for standing by them and cheering even when WBC qualification at one point seemed out of reach. With the win, Taiwan joined Nicaragua in securing a spots in the WBC, set to take place in March 2026.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 189-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 23,376 on turnover of $7.8-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan fell by more than 160 points Monday as investor sentiment was spooked by weaker-than-expected trading in the United States, which prompted fears of a U.S. slowdown. But select old economy stocks still attracted rotational buying, with shipping and steel stocks helping to prevent the Taiex from falling further." Two Receive Deferred Prosecution in Core Pacific City Case Prosecutors say two people involved in the Core Pacific City corruption case have received deferred prosecution. The Taipei District Prosecutor's Office says former Dingyue Development Corporation president Chu Yea-hu (朱亞虎) and Core Pacific Group legal affairs manager Chen Chun-yuan (陳俊源) admitted to the charges. Officials say the two must pay $3.3-million and $1.2-million NT respectively to the public treasury (國庫) within three months. The Taipei District Prosecutors Office previously indicted former Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je, Weijing Group Chairman Shen Qing-jing, and nine others for corruption, embezzlement, and other offenses. (NS) Macron Warns Trump not to "Surrender" Ukraine French President Emmanuel Macron has warned Donald Trump not to "surrender" (交出，放棄) Ukraine as he pushes for a peace deal with Russia. The two leaders met at the White House on Monday, on the third anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Nick Harper reports from Washington. Morocco Claims Dozens Arrested in Foiled IS Attack Moroccan authorities have arrested a dozen people they said were planning attacks on behalf of the Islamic State in the Sahel. The country's top investigator said Monday that the dismantling (拆解) of one of the group's terror cells reflected their growing regional ambitions. They did not provide details about what they called imminent (即將發生的) threats but released a series of videos and photographs showing officers raiding compounds they said were being used to plan attacks. In recent years, Morocco's security services claim to have dismantled 40 terrorist cells, including one as recently as January. Greece Santorini Quakes in Gradual Decline Scientists from the University of Athens monitoring an earthquake swarm near the island of Santorini say the phenomenon is in “gradual decline” nearly a month after the multiple tremors started. The undersea shocks — sometimes recorded only minutes apart — led thousands of residents and workers to flee the famed cliff-top towns of Santorini as well as the nearby islands of Ios, Amorgos and Anafi. Schools remain closed on those islands for a fourth week and many other restrictions are still in effect. But scientists said they are encouraged by the recent progression of the earthquake swarm, while local authorities say thousands of those fled have returned in recent days. Officials say from January 26th to February 22nd, they've recorded more than 20-thousand earthquakes of magnitude 1 or higher. The multiple earthquakes, attributed to natural tectonic (地殼構造的) processes as well as magma movements below the seabed, have measured up to magnitude 5.3 but have caused only minor damage.

Taiwanese Germans go to the polls Taiwanese nationals with German citizenship have cast their ballots in Germany's federal election Sunday for the first time. This follows a change in the country's Nationality Law last year that allows Germans with dual citizenship to vote. More than 200,000 citizenship applications were received by the government since the passage (通過) of the new law in June, including from a number of Taiwanese people. That's about two to three times higher than in previous years. Yushan North Peak Sees Rime Frost The Central Weather Administration says frost formations have been spotted on parts of Yushan, due to early morning low temperatures. The CWA says lows fell to "minus 5.2 degrees Celsius" on Taiwan's highest peak at around 5am today, and rime frost formed on surfaces on the mountain. Forecasters say the opaque (不透明的), granular deposits of ice crystals occur in foggy or cloudy conditions when the water droplets in the air freeze on cold surfaces. Temperatures on Yushan returned to 2.8 degrees at around 8am. (NS) Ukraine Zelenskyy on US Aid Deal Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says a contentious (有爭議的) U.S. proposal that would have seen $500 billion worth of profits from Ukrainian rare minerals given to the United States as compensation for its wartime assistance to Kyiv has been taken off the table. Zelenskyy told a forum in Kyiv on Sunday that he was open to brokering a deal that would let the U.S. profit from his country’s minerals, but that the $500 billion sum initially proposed had been removed from the discussions. The Ukrainian leader said considering aid as a debt to be repaid would be a “Pandora's box” that would set a precedent requiring Kyiv to reimburse all its backers. U.S. officials have expressed confidence that a deal could be reached this week.

Joseph Wu rebuts Trump chip theft claim National Security Council head Joseph Wu is rebutting claims by U-S President Donald Trump that Taiwan stole the semiconductor business from America. Speaking at the Halifax International Security Forum in Taipei, Wu stressed that Taiwan "did not steal anything from anybody" .. …. and stressed that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing "started from scratch" with "some help from the international community." The statements come after Trump earlier this week announced that America could hit semiconductors with tariffs of around 25-per cent in the coming weeks. Wu told delegates at the forum that the government is continuing to assess the potential impact of such a move and will be prepared to adjust its economic structure if such a need arises. He warned that those bearing the cost of such tariffs will be U-S consumers, and he's sure eventually the Trump administration will reconsider (重新考慮) its decision." Taoyuan Airport MRT preparing for 200-millionth rider The Taoyuan Metro Corporation says it's preparing to celebrate its 200-millionth passenger trip earlier than expected. According to the Airport M-R-T operator, the milestone was originally projected for March, but due increased ridership during the on-going Lantern Festival, it's now expected to meet the number sometime this weekend.

Israel: Returned Remains Not Missing Mother The Israeli military says the remains of two child hostages have been identified but another body released by Hamas was not the boys’ mother. Hamas militants had turned over four bodies Thursday under the tenuous (脆弱的) ceasefire that has paused over 15 months of war. Israeli confirmed one body was that of Oded Lifshitz, who was 83 when he was abducted during the Hamas attack that started the war in 2023. The military said later the remains of Ariel and Kfir Bibas had been identified and the family notified. But the military said the additional body was not that of their mother Shiri Bibas nor any other hostage. It called the failure to return four hostages Thursday a violation of the utmost severity of the ceasefire agreement. UN Alarm on DRC Fighting The United Nations has once again sounded the alarm bells at the devastating impact of the continued fighting in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened continued to lose ground this morning from yesterday's decline - opening down 73-points at 23,530 on turnover of 5.1-billion N-T. The market fell on Wednesday after U-S President Donald Trump threatened to impose a 25-per cent tariff on chips, cars and pharmaceuticals (藥品). Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing was the focus of selling - as its share price shed 0.91-per cent. The stock's losses contributed about 80-points to the Tai-Ex's total decline for the day and sent the electronics index lower by 0.38-per cent, while the semiconductor sub-index was down 0.57-per cent. Lai calls Taiwan 'a chess player, not a chess piece' President Lai Ching-te is describing Taiwan as "a chess player, not a chess piece" in the shifting geopolitical climate. Lai made the statement during a meeting of the D-P-P's Central Standing Committee, as he's seeking to reaffirm his administration's commitment to strengthening the island's defense through increased spending and reforms (改革). D-P-P spokeswoman Han Ying says Lai expressed confidence Taiwan will be able to successfully navigate the rapidly changing international landscape … .. while at the same time, ensuring national security and preserving its leading position in the global semiconductor supply chain. More free flu vaccines to be available from today And, The Centers for Disease Control says 100,000 doses of newly purchased flu vaccines for the free government-funded program are now available to high-risk groups. The vaccines passed inspection last Friday before being distributed (散發、分配) to local health authorities for today's rollout. Distribution of the flu vaccines doses comes as the C-D-C reported just over 148,000 hospital visits for flu-like illness last week. The additional flu-vaccines doses are available to individuals aged 65 and over, infants over the age of 6 months, preschool children and those at higher risk of contracting the flu. UN Warns of Rebel Offensive in Congo Top United Nations officials in Africa have warned an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council that the offensive of Rwanda-backed rebels in mineral-rich eastern Congo is threatening peace in the wider region. A U.N. special envoy for Congo urged the council on Wednesday to take "urgent (緊迫的) and decisive steps to avert a wider regional war.” The U.N. special envoy for the Africa’s Great Lakes region said the recent seizure of major cities in eastern Congo by M23 rebels show that “the risk of a regional conflagration is more real today than ever before.” France’s U.N. ambassador called for the council to adopt a resolution urging an end to the M23 offensive.

The market closed higher on Tuesday after Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing got a boost from last-ditch buying. However, turnover remained limited, as analysts say many investors are still waiting for U-S President Donald Trump's decision regarding semiconductor tariffs on Taiwan. Lai promulgates amended law tightening recall petition rules President Lai Ching-te has signed off on amended legislation that tightens requirements for petitions used to initiate the recall of elected officials. Promulgation of the amendments to the Public Officials Election And Recall Act comes after lawmakers voted to uphold (贊成，維護) the legislation following a re-vote requested by the Cabinet last week. The amendments were proposed by the K-M-T and had the back of the Taiwan People's Party. The D-P-P says it is preparing to petition the Constitutional Court to rule on the constitutionality of the amended law. Banana prices to remain high until May or June The Ministry of Agriculture says the price of bananas is expected to remain high until May or June. The statement comes as banana prices have shot up in recent weeks. According to the Agriculture and Food Agency, the price of bananas at Taipei's First and Second Wholesale Fruit and Vegetable Markets on Monday was 107.1 N-T per kilogram. That was an 84.2-per cent from the same date of last year. The agency says the high prices are mainly the result of "several typhoons" that struck Kaohsiung and Pingtung last year. Prices for guavas, jujubes and wax apples have also risen this year due to the impact (影響) of the typhoons. US Agencies Expecitng Mass Layoffs From the US….

Officials say marine experts including veterinarians are at the scene on Wednesday near Arthur River on Tasmania’s northwest coast. Of the 157 beached whales, 136 appeared to still be alive. The inaccessibility (交通不便，難以接近) of the beach, ocean conditions and challenges to getting specialist equipment to the remote area were complicating (使複雜化) a response. Authorities have not yet requested public help to rescue the whales. Brazil Approves Joining OPEC Brazil’s government has approved joining OPEC+, a group of major oil-exporting nations. Brazil was invited to join the group in 2023.

The plaque for "Lin Yang Way" was unveiled at a ceremony at the Zhongshan Junior High School - where both of them studied in their younger years. According to Taipei Mayor Chiang Wan-an, the city government chose to name the street after Lee and Wang after local residents submitted a petition to his office calling for the two-time Olympic gold medallists to be celebrated. Residents won't have to change their addresses, as the street will also preserve its original (原來的) name of "Lane 361 on Fuxing North Road." Lee and Wang won gold in men's badminton doubles at both the 2020 Tokyo and the 2024 Paris games.
