Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.
Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened down 107-points this morning from yesterday's close, at
22,362 on turnover of 5.1-billion N-T.
The market closed higher on Wednesday, as it broke through stiff technical
resistance ahead of the 240-day moving average of 22,300 points.
That came on the back of extended gains for Taiwan Semiconductor
Manufacturing and amid investor optimism over US-China trade talks.
Ma Ying-jeou to attend Straits Forum in China
Former President Ma Ying-jeou is slated to attend the 17th Straits Forum in
the Chinese city of Xiamen early next week.
According to the Ma Ying-jeou Foundation, he will be leading a group of
students from the Da Jiu Academy to the event as part of a two-week trip to
China.
Foundation C-E-O Xiao Xu-cen says after attending (出席) the forum, Ma and
the students will travel to Gansu Province for a series of cultural
activities and to learn about the Silk Road.
Xiao says the visit is aimed at reducing hostility (敵意) across the Taiwan
Strait by showing people on both sides the willingness of young people to
engage and interact with each other.
New tropical depression forms near Philippines
The Central Weather Administration says it's monitoring a tropical depression
that formed yesterday evening east of the Philippines.
It's currently located some 500-kilometers southeast of Eluanbi at the
island's southernmost tip and moving in a north-northwesterly direction at
33-kilometers-an-hour.
The weather administration says the weather pattern is moving towards Taiwan.
It's forecast to bring thunderstorms or heavy rain to much of the island.
SAfrica Flooding Leaves Dozens Dead
A weather front brings rain, snow, and now deadly flooding to South Africa.
The AP's Jennifer King reports.
Kosovo US Agreement to Accept Migrants
Kosovo says it has agreed to a request from the United States to temporarily
accept up to 50 third-country migrants a year.
The Balkan country’s government said “over the course of a year, up to
fifty individuals may be temporarily relocated, with the aim of facilitating
(促進) their safe return to their home country."
Immediately upon returning to office in January, President Donald Trump
started plans for mass deportation to make good on campaign promises to crack
down on illegal immigration.
It was not clear when Washington made the request or whether it made similar
(相似的) requests to other countries in the region.
Japan Princess Visits Brazil
Japan’s Princess Kako of Akishino, a niece of Emperor Naruhito, was welcomed
by Brazil’s President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva at a private ceremony.
The younger daughter of Crown Prince Fumihito and Crown Princess Kiko is at
the tail end of her 11-day trip to the South American nation.
The princess also spoke before lawmakers at Congress, and thanked Brazilians
for hosting (當宿主) Japanese immigants for more than a century.
Her trip also marks the 130th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the
two countries.
That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _____.
