Taiwan has lifted its restriction on marriages between same-sex couples where one partner comes from a country that does not recognize same-sex marriage, paving the way for transnational couples to wed. A Nikkei Asia report says the U.S. National Guard has been training Taiwanese troops since before spring of 2022. And nearly two months after China was rocked by protests over the country's pandemic measures, authorities are continuing to quietly round up and jail protesters. Also:
- Residents of Taiwan's southern city of Tainan are protesting a decision to build a gas-fired power plant close to their homes.
- How people in Taiwan continue to embrace traditional paper calendars despite the country's high-tech reputation.
- As the majority of Taiwan's population gears up to spend a traditional Lunar New Year meal with their family, a local charity is making sure people without a home to go to don't feel left out.
