Cabinet to establish agency for strengthening personal data protection The Cabinet has approved a proposal paving the way (（為…）創造條件) for the establishment of an independent agency tasked with strengthening personal data protection in Taiwan. According to the Cabinet, the proposed bill and amendments will provide the legal basis for the planned Personal Data Protection Commission. Under the proposal, each government agency should also appoint a "personal data protection officer" to coordinate and oversee efforts to strengthen data protection and promote awareness of its importance. The head of the planned agency's preparatory office, says the commission will include five to seven commissioners serving for renewable four-year terms .. .. and it will primarily be tasked with handling cases of personal data breaches in both government agencies and private enterprises that "do not have a specific competent authority. Full-length photo of Taiwan's tallest tree The Taiwan Forestry Research Institute has unveiled a full-length photo of Taiwan's tallest tree. The tree is a Taiwania nicknamed "Heaven Sword" and measures 84.1-meters in height. The forestry research institute says photo was made possible thanks to its collaboration with a National Cheng Kung University team nicknamed "Taiwan champion trees," and Steven Pearce, the leader of Australia's The Tree Project. According to the institute, the full photographing of the tree was completed in January of 2023. Institute Deputy Director Wu Meng-ling says the research team spent six days climbing mountains and trekking up the Da'an River to reach the tree before they could begin photographing it. The tree was located using airborne light detection and ranging technology - which can obtain (獲得) three-dimensional information over a large area in a short time, which in turn helps to measure the height of trees.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 167-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,093 on turnover of 5.4-billion N-T. The market closed little changed on Wednesday, as many investors opted to stay on the sidelines amid lingering concerns over tariff threats from the Trump administration. The slump came after tech stocks took hit on Wall Street overnight - as the Nasdaq lost 2-per cent. Turnover stood at 214-billion N-T and market watchers say the low turnover was evidence that investors are reluctant to chase prices for now before the White House announces its reciprocal tariff policy - which is expected by April 2. Analysts say the local main board is expected to continue to move in a narrow range at around the 240-day moving average of 22,330 points before those reciprocal tariff actions are launched. Four former-servicemen found guilty of selling documents to China operative The Taipei District Court has sentenced four former military personnel to prison terms after finding them guilty of selling documents to a middleman for the Chinese intelligence services. Three of those sentenced were members of the 211th Military Police Battalion, which guards the Presidential Office, while the fourth served in the ministry's Information, Communications and Electronic Force Command. The four were convicted for breaching (違反) national security laws and accepting bribes and given sentences of between five and seven years. The sentences can be appealed. Academics slam Lai's populism, freedom of speech erosion Some 75 academics are accusing President Lai Ching-te of using populism to rally supporters, leading to the rapid erosion of free speech in Taiwan .. .. and have all co-signed a statement titled "Defending Taiwan's Democracy, Rule of Law, and Peace." They're calling on the government to the government to halt its actions and avoid (避免) further harming Taiwan's democracy and rule of law for the sake of short-term political gain. They're also arguing that "in order to defend" Taiwan's "democracy, rule of law, peace and security," the government should "adhere to the constitutional system and take immediate and effective measures to improve cross-strait relations." NKorea Kim Observes Drone Tests North Korea says leader Kim Jong Un observed tests of newly developed reconnaissance and attack drones this week and called for their increased production. Photos released by state media Thursday showed Kim observing what appeared to be a large reconnaissance (偵察) drone roughly resembling Boeing’s E-7 Wedgetail airborne warning and control aircraft. Other images showed exploding drones crashing into targets. The report said the exploding drones feature unspecified artificial intelligence capabilities. State media said Kim expressed satisfaction with the drones’ performance and approved plans to expand production, emphasizing that drones and AI should be top priorities in efforts to advance his military and adapt it to modern warfare. Trump 25Percent Tariffs on Auto Imports Donald Trump has announced a 25% tariff on all automobiles imported into the United States. The US president says the move is intended to boost (增強；推動) domestic manufacturing but it's expected to raise prices for US car buyers. Ira Spitzer has more. 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 54-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,327 on turnover of 2.7-billion N-T. The market rebounded from a slump the previous session on Tuesday - as large cap electronics stocks were in focus following gains on Wall Street overnight after U-S news media reports said the Trump administration may implement more measured trade actions. Power plants scale back operations as smog envelops northern Taiwan The Ministry of Environment says power plants have temporarily been scaling back operations after air pollution in the north reached unhealthy levels. According to the ministry, "red warnings" - indicating air that is unhealthy for all groups - were triggered at monitoring stations in Taipei, New Taipei, Keelung and Taoyuan Tuesday afternoon .. .. and it coordinated with Tai-Power to implement load reduction (減少) and emissions controls at power plants in Keelung, Yunlin County, Taichung and Kaohsiung in order to mitigate the effects of the pollution. The environment ministry says the total reduced power generation amounted to 132.52-million kilowatt-hours as of 6PM. Ex-captain charged with corruption sent back to Taiwan A former army captain charged with corruption has been repatriated in a joint mission by Taiwanese and Filipino authorities. According to the Ministry of Justice's Investigation Bureau, Lee Chen-yu was detained in the Philippines for over a year after he was arrested by Filipino authorities in Cebu in February 2024 based on information from Taiwan that he was a fugitive. The bureau says Filipino authorities refused to deport Lee to Taiwan, because they mistook him for another fugitive (逃犯) with the same name and needed to investigate whether he was involved in other cases. However, he was finally returned to Taiwan yesterday following talks between Taiwan and Philippine officials. Lee was formally arrested on his arrival at Taoyuan International Airport. Ukraine Russia to Halt Black Sea Attacks Ukraine and Russia have agreed to halt military strikes in the Black Sea and to allow safe passage of commercial shipping vessels. The move comes after U.S. officials held several days of talks with representatives from Moscow and Kyiv in Saudi Arabia. But major questions remain over whether this agreement will be able to be effectively (有效地) implemented. William Denselow reports from Kyiv. King Charles Visit to Vatican Postponed King Charles III’s scheduled audience with Pope Francis at the Vatican next month has been postponed by mutual agreement after medical advice suggested the pontiff would be better off with more rest. Buckingham Palace made the announcement in a statement Tuesday. The tentative audience was among details of the British monarch’s visit to the Vatican and Italy last week by the palace. The royal visit to Italy, which is scheduled to start on April 7, will continue. The Pope was released from hospital Sunday after 38 days of treatment (治療) for double pneumonia and is under doctors orders to observe two months of rest during which he should avoid large gatherings.

SKorea Overturns PM Impeachment South Korea’s Constitutional Court overturned parliament’s impeachment of Prime Minister Han Duck-soo, reinstating him as acting president. Han, South Korea’s No. 2 official, had become acting leader after President Yoon Suk Yeol was impeached by the opposition-controlled National Assembly over his Dec. 3 imposition (實施) of martial law that triggered a massive political crisis. But Han was impeached by the assembly as well in late December following political strife with opposition lawmakers. The Constitutional Court says today it has decided to overturn Han’s impeachment. The court has yet to issue a ruling on Yoon’s impeachment. Yoon has been separately arrested and charged with rebellion in connection with his martial law decree. If convicted of that charge, he would face the death penalty or a life sentence. And if the court rules against him, South Korea must hold a national election to find a new president.

According to Liu, the woman received that deportation order on Saturday. Speaking during a legislative hearing, the interior minister said the deportation order is "somewhat similar (相似的)" to registered mail - where the time starts from the day after the recipient receives the letter. .. and if "it was delivered to your house but you didn't receive it until the next day, then counting would start from the third day, which means there is some wiggle room."

South Africa has set a deadline of the end of this month for Taiwan to change the name of its representative office and relocate it. However, the foreign ministry is insisting that per an agreement signed the year before diplomatic relations with South Africa ended in 1998, Taiwan is permitted to operate a liaison office in Pretoria. Kaohsiung's Fengshan Marathon apologizes for PLA rifle trophies The organizers of Sunday's Fengshan Marathon in Kaohsiung have apologized for giving out trophies shaped like a Chinese military rifle. According to the Fengshan Road Running Association, it originally chose the design for the trophies because the 2025 edition of the annual marathon passed through three military academies. However, the association says it recognized the choice was "inconsiderate" and had apologized to those who received the trophies. The association also says it will contact all trophy recipients to replace the rifle-shaped trophies with alternatives. The statement was issued after one of the participants of Sunday's marathon posted a photograph of the trophy and joked about how it was shaped like Chinese rifle. Judge stalls Trump's order to speed deportations The U-S government is slamming a federal judge's decision to stop the administration from carrying out deportations under a sweeping (廣泛的) 18th century law.

Mark Carney heading to Paris and London Canada's new Prime Minister Mark Carney is heading to Paris and London to seek alliances as he deals U-S President Donald Trump's attacks on Canada's sovereignty and economy. Carney is purposely making his first foreign trip to the capital cities of the two countries that shaped Canada's early existence. At his swearing-in ceremony on Friday, Carney noted the country was built on the bedrock (基礎) of three peoples, French, English and Indigenous. He said Canada is fundamentally a different country from America and will never, ever, in any way shape or form, be part of the United States. SpaceX capsule arrives at the International Space Station And finally, A SpaceX capsule has arrived at the International Space Station, delivering the replacements for NASA's two stuck astronauts. The new crew pulled up Sunday, just 29 hours after blasting off. The four newcomers will spend the next few days learning the station's ins and outs from Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams. Then it will be time for those two to end their nine-month stay and head home. They expected to be gone just a week when they launched on Boeing's first astronaut flight last June. The Starliner capsule had so many problems that NASA insisted it come back empty (空的). Wilmore and Williams will come back via SpaceX. 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 125-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,403 on turnover of 6.5-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan closed higher on a technical rebound Wednesday from a slump a session earlier, led by large cap tech stocks. But analysts say parts of earlier gains were eroded amid uncertainties caused by U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff policies. With the rebound featuring tech stocks, old economy industries largely moved in weakness caused by tariff concerns. Taiwan Closed National Freeway Lane for Earliest Butterfly Protection in Decade Highway officials closed part of National Freeway 3 yesterday in Yunlin County, due to a large migration of purple crow butterflies. And according to local conservationists, this marked the earliest closure (關閉) before the usual peak around the Tomb Sweeping Festival in early April. Conservationists reported over 30-thousand purple crow butterflies migrated through the area in the morning, peaking at 690 per minute. The Freeway Bureau installed a 1,100-meter protective net and closed an outer lane once butterfly traffic exceeded 250 per minute. Experts say an early migration was triggered by a colder winter followed by recent warm weather, with butterfly numbers expected to surge from March 20th until the end of the month. EU Talks Ukraine and Security France's Defense Minister revealed that 15 countries are willing to contribute to a "new security architecture" in Ukraine. This comes at meeting of European defense ministers, as Moscow considers (考慮) an immediate 30-day ceasefire proposed by Washington and Kyiv. Stuart Smith has more from the French capital. Argentina Protests Against Austerity Measures Argentine retirees and fans of several soccer teams have clashed with police during a protest in front of Congress in the capital, Buenos Aires, against the economic policies implemented by the government of President Javier Milei. What started as a peaceful demonstration escalated into violent clashes as police deployed water cannons, tear gas, and pellets against stone-throwing protesters. For weeks, Buenos Aires retirees have held weekly protests demanding higher pensions, citing a precarious standard of living. The government of far-right President Javier Milei, who has championed a policy of public spending cuts since coming to power a year and a half ago, had warned of restrictions on entry to stadiums for those who cause disorder (動亂). Greenland Independence Party Surprise Victory in Parliamentary Elections A party that favors a gradual path to Greenland’s independence from Denmark has won a surprise victory in parliamentary elections. Tuesday's voting was held in the shadow of U.S. President Donald Trump’s stated goal of taking control of the island. The Demokraatit Party, a pro-business party that favors a slow path to independence, has pushed back against Trump’s rhetoric, saying it is for Greenlanders to decide the future of the strategically (在戰略上) important territory. The mineral-rich Arctic island is also home to a U.S. air base and straddles strategic air and sea routes in the North Atlantic. 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 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.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened opened down 19-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,696 on turnover of $7.2-billion N-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.

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.
