As the rainy season picks up almost a year after last year's devastating floods, farmers in eastern Taiwan's Guangfu Township feel squeezed by land use plans for flood control infrastructure. Taiwan reportedly weights tighter rules to curb China-bound AI chips. And Taiwan's military holds live-fire missile drills with US-made HIMARS rockets. Plus:
- Tao mariners hold a ceremony for an ocean-going canoe soon slated to sail to the northern Philippines, restarting a centuries-dormant oceanic route.
- Vice President Bi-khim Hsiao encourages Taiwanese to visit Palau, their closest diplomatic ally, as she as wraps up her five-day trip there.
- Hong Kong's coffin houses and shoebox homes may soon be history as the city decides to clamp down on claustrophobic living conditions.
The report "Analysis: What New Chip Rules Could Mean for Taiwan Firms" incorrectly refers to Domingo Yang as a research assistant at INDSR. He is in fact an assistant research fellow.
