Tai-Ex opening

The Tai-Ex opened up 188-points this morning from yesterday's close, at

20,884 on turnover of 5.2-billion N-T.


The market plunged more than 4-per cent on Monday on the back of investor

concerns over U-S President Donald Trump's tariff threats that could become

reality later this week.


Monday's decline was the fourth steepest in terms of points in the Tai-Ex's

history.




Lai urges steps to stabilize Taiwan's economy as U.S. tariffs loom

President Lai Ching-te has told Premier Cho Jung-tai to take steps to

guarantee Taiwan's economic stability ahead of the expected imposition of

"reciprocal tariffs" by the United States tomorrow.


According to Presidential Office spokeswoman Karen Kuo, Lai made the call

after hearing a presentation by Cho and members of the government's

"Taiwan-U.S. trade work group."


Kuo says the report included assessments (評估) of possible U-S tariff

levels, modeling and estimates of their economic impact, and various

potential response plans.


The Cabinet's Office of Trade Negotiations has said it's been preparing for

the tariffs and has already developed "multifaceted response plans."




Interior Minister disbands standby rescue team to help Myanmar after Earthquake

Interior Minister Liu Shyh-fang says the government has disbanded a rescue

team that was on standby to travel to Myanmar following last Friday's

magnitude 7.7 earthquake.


According to Liu, her office made the decision after considering the

continuing military conflict between Myanmar's military junta and local rebel

groups over the past few days despite the strong earthquake.


Liu told reporters the government would be unable to guarantee the safety of

rescue team members once they arrive there and decided to take team members

off standby (支援) and allow them to return to their regular operations in

Taiwan.


The rescue teams had been on standby since late Friday.




Trump administration sanctions six Chinese officials over Hong Kong Crackdown

The US has announced sanctions against six officials from China and Hong Kong

over the Chinese government's crackdown on the city's pro-democracy movement.


Washington and its allies have accused (指控) Beijing of not honoring a

commitment to allow the formerly British territory a high degree of autonomy.


Ira Spitzer reports.




Lithuania 3 Missing Soldiers Bodies Recovered

The U.S. Army says three of the soldiers who went missing in Lithuania have

been found dead in an armored vehicle that was pulled from a swampy area in

Lithuania early Monday.


Another soldier is still missing.


The bodies of the three were recovered after a massive (大量的) six-day

effort by U.S., Polish and Lithuanian armed forces and authorities to dig the

M88 Hercules vehicle out of a peat bog at the training ground.


The Army says the soldiers were on a tactical training exercise when they and

their vehicle were reported missing early Tuesday.


Hundreds of Lithuanian and U.S. soldiers and rescuers had joined the search

through the thick forests and swampy terrain.


The Navy dive team is now searching the area using radar for the fourth

soldier who is still missing.


That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _____.
