Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.
Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened down 224-points this morning from yesterday's close, at
23,318 on turnover of $6.3-billion N-T.
The market bucked a regional downward trend on Thursday and moved higher, as
investors shrugged off a decline on Wall Street overnight caused by concerns
that U-S Federal Reserve may not deliver interest rates cuts by September.
Turnover also bounced back (恢復) from the decline seen during the previous
session - as investor concerns over U-S tariff polices on Taiwan appeared to
weaken.
MOC launches new cultural program in tandem with Expo 2025 Osaka
The Ministry of Culture says cultural program organized for Expo 2025 Osaka
will premiere this weekend with a special exhibition featuring 50 selected
picture books about various aspects of life in Taiwan.
According to the ministry, the "We TAIWAN" cultural program is designed to
partner with and make the most of the 2025 World Expo.
The ministry says teams that left for Osaka last week have been setting up
exhibitions (展覽) and rehearsing for the program - and the main "We TAIWAN"
visual display has been set-up at the Grand Green Osaka venue.
The first event of the program will be an exhibition of 50 picture books by
Taiwanese writers and illustrators.
The show will also feature elements from Taiwan's Indigenous Peoples, local
folklore, daily life, as well as Taiwan's food culture, religions, arts and
natural scenery (自然風光).
The "We TAIWAN" program features 38 groups of artists from Taiwan and Japan
who will put on a total of 129 performances from August 2 through 20.

Macao ExDemocracy Lawmaker Arrested Under Security Law
Macao police say they have arrested a man on suspicion of colluding with
forces outside the Chinese casino hub to endanger national security.
It was the first publicly known arrest under the city’s national security
law.
Local media outlets report former pro-democracy lawmaker Au Kam San is the
suspect.
Police said Thursday the 68-year-old Macao resident with the surname Au
allegedly colluded (串通;勾結;) with an anti-China group outside of the city
and provided false and seditious materials for public display online or
abroad.
He also is accused of maintaining long-term contact with multiple anti-China
entities outside of Macao and repeatedly providing unfounded information to
them or their media outlets for dissemination.
Peru PreIncan Tombs Discovered
Utility workers in Peru's capital have discovered two pre-Incan tombs while
expanding underground gas networks.
One tomb was empty, but the other contained remains about 1,000 years old,
along with clay and pumpkin shell vessels (容器, 器皿).
Archaeologists say the vessels' (容器, 器皿) design links them to the
pre-Incan Chancay culture.
Lima, a city with over 400 archaeological sites, often reveals such finds
during construction projects.
The company responsible for the gas network has made over 2,200 discoveries
in two decades.
That was the I.C.R.T. EZ News, I'm _____.
