The U.S. State Department has approved the sale of mine-laying weapons systems to Taiwan valued at US$180 million, subject to confirmation from Congress. Taiwan’s chipmaking giant TSMC held a ceremony to launch its 3-nanometer process technology, as the company expands into the U.S. And traffic deaths in Taiwan hit their highest level in nine years, a startling figure that the transport ministry attributes to the country’s high number of scooter accidents. Also:
- Taiwan announces it will ramp up testing on arrivals from China starting Jan. 1.
- The ruling Democratic Progressive Party reflects on its November election defeats.
- The government commits to a 24% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 as part of long term net-zero goals.
