As Taiwan's #MeToo movement continues to gain momentum, women in Taiwan's legislature are pushing for tougher laws governing sexual misconduct. And Taiwan is hitting back against protests from Vietnam over military drills in the South China Sea around disputed islands claimed by both sides. Plus, flash mobs have gathered in Taiwan in support of a protest anthem that Hong Kong is trying to ban. Also in the show:
- Seasonal "plum rains" have brought welcome replenishment to Taiwan's reservoirs but also cut off the road to a national forest mountain area.
- Doctors in Taiwan have come up with the world's first vaccine patch to prevent allergic reactions to biting midges.
- Farmers in southern Taiwan are concerned about the damage to their crops from resurgent numbers of Formosan sika deer.
