Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.
Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened down 102-points this morning from Friday's close, at 33,009
on turnover of 8.4-billion N-T.
The market slumped on Friday, closing down 225-points, or 0.68-per cent,
after Wall Street had its worst day since the start of Donald Trump's Iran
war over growing doubts about a de-escalation and oil prices have gained more
than 1-per cent
Cancer treatment cost NHI record NT$156 billion in 2025
The National Health Insurance Administration says National Health Insurance
spending on cancer treatment rose to a record 156.7-billion N-T last year.
That was an increase of 26.5-billion N-T from 2020.
According to the administration, the number of patients seeking cancer
treatment increased to 970,104 in 2025, reflecting an average annual increase
of 5-per cent over the past five years.
Data shows breast cancer accounted for the largest number of cases.
The administration says the rising costs are mainly driven by Taiwan's aging
population and expanded cancer screening programs, reflecting increased
health investment and improved access (通路) to care.
CWA warns of aftershocks from Pingtung earthquake
The Central Weather Administration's Seismological Center is warning of
possible aftershocks over the coming week following Sunday's magnitude 4.7
earthquake the rattled (使慌亂,使緊張) the south Sunday morning.
That quake was centered some 29-kilometers south-southeast of Pingtung County
Hall at a depth of 23-kilometers and was felt across parts of Pingtung,
Taitung, Kaohsiung, Tainan and Chiayi.
According to the Seismological Center, the quake could result in aftershocks
of between magnitudes 4 and 5 on the weather administration's intensity
scale.
The center says the quake was caused by the Eurasian Plate subducting beneath
the Philippine Sea Plate along Taiwan's Chaozhou Fault zone.
Trump Fine with Russia Delivering Oil to Cuba
US President Donald Trump says he has “no problem” with a Russian oil
tanker off the coast of Cuba delivering relief to the island, which has been
brought to its knees (使陷入困境,打敗) by a U.S. oil blockade.
Trump told reporters as he flew back to Washington, that "they have to
survive".
Tracking data shows the oil tanker carrying approximately 730-thousand
barrels of oil, was just off the eastern tip of the island on Sunday night
and slated to land in the city of Matanzas by Tuesday.
Trump has effectively cut Cuba off from key oil shipments in an effort to
force regime change.
Island-wide blackouts have roiled Cubans already grappling with years of
crisis, and lack of gasoline and basic resources has crippled hospital and
slashed public transport.
Iran warns the US against a ground invasion as regional powers meet in Pakistan
Iran threatens the US as Pakistan says it will host talks between the
