Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.







Tai-Ex opening

The Tai-Ex opened up 68-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,614

on turnover of 4-billion N-T.



The market tumbled on Monday, falling almost 200 points, as the bellwether

electronics sector trended lower after a decline on Wall Street at the end of

last week sparked by fears the U-S Federal Reserve is set to slow down the

pace of its current rate cut cycle.







Court Rules Women's League has KMT Links

The Taipei High Administrative Court has ruled that the National Women's

League was an affiliate of the K-M-T before 2004 and as such has been ordered

pay 17.89-billion N-T to the state.



The ruling comes after the women's group sued the Ill-gotten Party Assets

Settlement Committee in 2018.



The lawsuit was filed shortly after the committee classified (分類) the

National Women's League as a K-M-T affiliate in February of that year.



The women's league had argued it had not been controlled or run by the

political party and the committee's classification was incorrect.



The committee also froze the assets of the women's group, including

38.5-billion N-T in cash.







Man Involved in High Speed Rail Knife Incident Released on Bail

The Taipei District Court has released man who punched a woman on a high

speed rail train and damaged a tray table with a knife on 29,000 N-T bail.



The court ruling comes after the Railway Police Bureau's Taipei branch

announced it had arrested in Nantou.



The suspect was then referred to the Taipei District Prosecutors' Office for

further investigation on suspicion of threatening members of the public,

assault (攻擊) and damaging private property.



The incident occurred while the train was traveling between Banqiao Station in

New Taipei and Taipei Station.



The Railway Police Bureau says it will increase the number of patrols to

ensure passenger safety.





Biden Pledges Funding to Fight Poverty

US President Joe Biden has pledged $4 billion for the world's poorest

countries.



The announcement came after Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula de Silva

launched a global alliance (全球性聯盟) to fight hunger and poverty at the

G20 meeting of the world's leading economies in Rio de Janeiro.

Finland Germany Undersea Cable Severed

German and Finland have expressed deep concern over the discovery of a

severed undersea cable between the countries through the Baltic Sea.



The two countries say it raises suspicions of sabotage and that an

investigation is underway.



Finnish authorities say the severed data cable was detected Monday in the

cable that runs nearly 1.200 kilometers from the Finnish capital, Helsinki,

to the German port city of Rostock.



They say Finland’s international data and telecommunications connections are

secured by running them through several redundant (額外的，重複的) lines, and

the effects of a single cable failure would depend on the security level of

service providers’ connections.







Greece to Make Early Repayment on Debt

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis says Greece is set to make an early

repayment of $5.3 billion in bailout-era debt in 2025.



Mitsotakis on Monday described the move as a signal of the nation’s fiscal

recovery.



Finance Ministry officials say they plan to reduce debt through primary

surpluses, loan repayments and combating tax evasion.



Mitsotakis’ center-right government was elected for a second term in 2023.



It's struggling to address a cost of living crisis that has sapped (削弱了)

Greeks’ spending power.



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