Listen Later


Today we speak with Assignment Editor Jeremy Olivier about Taiwan’s plan to distribute 10 million civil defense handbooks in multiple languages. The books offer useful information like how to pack a “go bag” and what to do if you hear a tsunami siren. So why has the move drawn criticism?
