Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.


Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened up 134-points this morning from Friday's close, at 21,699
on turnover of 6.9-billion N-T.

The market recovered most of its early losses on Friday to close well above
the five-day moving average of around 21,450 points by the end of the trading
day.

Although large cap semiconductor stocks came under pressure, artificial
intelligence-related stocks attracted strong buying after Nvidia's strong
results overnight, while shipping stocks also rose amid increasing freight
(貨運) rates.


US Lawmakers Arrive in Taiwan
A group of bipartisan American lawmakers has arrived in Taipei.

The delegation is being led by Republican Michael McCaul who chairs the House
Foreign Affairs Committee.

The American Institute in Taiwan says the delegation will meet with senior
government officials to discuss US-Taiwan relations, regional security, trade
and investment, and other significant (重要的) issues of mutual interest.

According to A-I-T, their four-day visit to Taiwan is part of a trip to the
wider Indo-Pacific region.

The six House members will be the first group of serving U-S officials to
meet with President Lai Ching-te following his inauguration.



Taiwan Delegation in Geneva for WHA Sideline Talks
A delegation led by Health Minister Chiu Tai-yuan has arrived in Geneva as
part of efforts to promote Taiwan's inclusion in the World Health Assembly.

Speaking to reporters at the opening of a "World Health We Share" exhibition
at Geneva Airport train station, Chiu said "health is a fundamental (基本的)
human right and a universal value, but Taiwan is denied participation due to
political interference."

The minister went on to say "this is deeply disappointing" and "although
Taiwan was not invited to the W-H-A, the island has strong soft power in the
medical and health fields."

The "World Health We Share" exhibition has been organized by a Taiwanese
civic promotional team to promote Taiwan's healthcare.




Japan Informed by NKorea of Planned Satellite Launch
Japan says North Korea has informed it of a plan to launch a satellite by
June 3rd.

Japan’s coast guard says today it has been notified by North Korea about its
planned launch of a “satellite rocket" beginning today through midnight June
3rd.

The launch plan likely refers to the North’s efforts to launch its second
military spy satellite into space.

South Korea’s military said Friday that it detected signs of North Korea
engaging in (從事於; 忙於) activities believed to be preparations to launch a
spy satellite at its main Tongchangri launch facility.



Tonga Earthquake Causes No Tsunami or Major Damage
A strong earthquake has struck the South Pacific Island nation of Tonga but
there are no immediate reports of damage.

The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake had a preliminary (初步的)
magnitude of 6.6 when it hit at 9:47 a.m. local time today.

Its epicenter was 198 kilometers north of the Tonga's capital, at a depth of
112 kilometers.

The Hawaii-based Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no risk of the
quake causing a tsunami.
