👉🏻新聞節錄

Taiwanese television host Mickey Huang has apologized for possessing pornographic videos of underage girls, but his apology failed to alleviate public anger in Taiwan.The 52-year-old was involved in Taiwan’s #MeToo movement in June 2023, when he was accused by two female netizens of sexual harassment which took place about 10 years ago.

The Taipei District Prosecutors Office announced on April 3 that Huang would not be prosecuted due to a lack of objective evidence. The artiste, who previously enjoyed a positive image, has also reached a settlement with the two alleged victims. However, the prosecutors found seven sex videos of underage girls on Huang’s hard disk during the investigation. He was ordered to pay a fine of NT$1.2 million and write a letter of repentance.

After his latest misdeed was made public, a huge backlash followed, and he took to social media on April 4 to apologize. Now he is facing an allegation of raping a 17-year-old girl almost two decades ago. Huang’s misdeeds also led to calls for Taiwan’s Legislative Yuan to establish a framework to better protect minors from abuse, sexual assaults and sexual exploitation.

👉🏻lyrics

When the rain is blowing in your face

And the whole world is on your case

I could offer you a warm embrace

To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows and the stars appear

And there is no one there to dry your tears

I could hold you for a million years

To make you feel my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet

But I will never do you wrong

I've known it from the moment that we met

No doubt in my mind where you belong

I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue

I'd go crawling down the avenue

No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do

To make you feel my love

The storms are raging on the rolling sea

And on the highway of regret

The winds of change are blowing wild and free

You ain't seen nothing like me yet

I could make you happy, make your dreams come true

Nothing that I wouldn't do

Go to the ends of the Earth for you

To make you feel my love

To make you feel my love

👉🏻新聞節錄

Governments across East Asia have been trying to convince women to have more babies. It’s getting existential: China is fast running out of the workers needed to power its economy and is forecast to lose as many as 200 million workers by 2050.

Their efforts are failing. Birthrates continue to fall. But some are hoping for a baby boom, or even a baby boomlet. According to Chinese astrology, the dragon is the most auspicious Zodiac animal. As the only mythical creature of the 12 animals in the Chinese Zodiac, it is considered divine and powerful. Many believe children born in the Year of the Dragon are more likely to be successful and fortunate all their lives.

Under the system, which assigns traits to each animal, some years are less popular, like that of the tiger (too fierce), the goat (too timid) or the snake (seen as manipulative and cunning). The Year of the Golden Pig has also led to baby booms. Golden Pigs are said to have lifelong comfort and wealth.

The superstition is not entirely baseless. According to a study, those born during a dragon year were more likely to score higher on university entrance exams and to have a college education. But the reason had nothing to do with the cosmos. It was the extra time and money that parents spend on those children. “People think that these dragon kids are special and they want to have special kids, and when they have these kids, they invest in them and expect great things from them. And this makes them successful, and the cycle continues,” said Naci Mocan, one of the authors of the study.

👉🏻Lyrics

Tell me something, girl

Are you happy in this modern world?

Or do you need more?

Is there something else you're searching for?

I'm falling

In all the good times

I find myself longing for change

And, in the bad times, I fear myself

Tell me something, boy

Aren't you tired tryna fill that void?

Or do you need more?

Ain't it hard keeping it so hardcore?

I'm falling

In all the good times

I find myself longing for change

And, in the bad times, I fear myself

I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in

I'll never meet the ground

Crash through the surface where they can't hurt us

We're far from the shallow now

In the sha-ha, sha-hallow

In the sha-ha, sha-la-la-la-low

In the sha-ha, sha-hallow

We're far from the shallow now
