Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.
Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened down 127-points this morning from yesterday's close, at
22,860 on turnover of $8.2-billion N-T.
The market continued its momentum from the previous session on Wednesday to
close moderately higher, as large cap artificial intelligence
development-related tech stocks gained ground after rebounded on Wall Street
overnight.
However, funds rotated out of the non-tech sector, in particular financial
stocks, to cap the upturn ahead of the 23,000-point mark.
Net emissions in 2022 down 1.77% from 2005
The Ministry of Environment has released its latest National Greenhouse Gas
Inventory Report - which indicates that net emissions have declined since
2022.
According to the report, emissions totaled 264.13 million metric tons of
carbon dioxide equivalent (相等的) in 2022 - and that represented a decrease
of 1.77-per cent from the baseline year of 2005.
The ministry says the figures for 2022 emissions also represents a decrease
of 4.07-per cent from 2021.
Officials say net emissions of 264.13 million metric tons of carbon dioxide
equivalent are calculated by taking total emissions of 285.97 million metric
tons and deducting the carbon sink of 21.83 million metric tons.
The earliest records Greenhouse Gas emissions date back to 1990 and peaked in
2007.
The Ministry of Environment says compared to global trends, which saw
energy-related CO2 emissions grow by 1.3-per cent from 2021 to 2022, Taiwan's
emissions saw a decrease over that same period.
NKorea Claims Successful Test of Multiwarhead Missile
North Korea says it successfully tested a multiwarhead missile, a
sophisticated (複雜的) weapon coveted by leader Kim Jong Un to overwhelm
missile defenses in the continental United States.
The statement contradicted South Korea’s assessment of a failed launch.
North Korea's state media says today that the launch tested the separation
and guidance control of individual mobile warheads.
It said they were guided correctly to their targets and a decoy that
separated from the missile was verified by radar.
It was North Korea’s first known launch event related to the development of
a multiwarhead missile, though outside experts believe it was a preliminary
test.
South Korea had evaluated Wednesday's launch as a solid-fueled hypersonic
missile that blew up over water.
China’s slams US Ambassador’s comments about Beijing interference
BUT… Beijing has hit back after the US Ambassador accused China of of
getting in the way of people to people ties.
Nicholas Burns told the Wall Street Journal Beijing was "taking dramatic
(驟然的) steps to make it impossible" for citizens from both sides to
reconnect.

Sri Lanka Announces Debt Restructuring Plan
Sri Lanka’s President Ranil Wickremesinghe has announced a debt
restructuring deal with countries including India, France, Japan and China in
a televised address to the nation.
The agreement marks a key step in the country’s economic recovery after
defaulting on debt repayment in 2022.
Sri Lanka is in an International Monetary Fund bailout program.
The debt treatment deal is expected to reopen the doors to bilateral
transactions and the resumption of foreign projects that stalled when the
island nation defaulted (拖欠，不履行債務).
Sri Lanka declared bankruptcy in April 2022 and suspended repayments on some
$83 billion in domestic and foreign loans.
That was the I.C.R.T. news,
Check in again tomorrow for our simplified version of the news, uploaded
every day in the afternoon.
