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.

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.

The External Trade Development Council says of the countries that made deals

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.

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.

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.
