第一則:家庭主婦也能月領五千 國民年金修法受關注
賴清德總統於 5 月 24 日表示,未來未參加公保、勞保與農保,僅投保國民年金的家庭主婦或家庭主夫,年滿 65 歲後,將可領取每月至少 5,000 元的老年年金。
衛福部說明,這並非新增補助,而是國民年金修法後調高基本保障金額。目前行政院已提出修法草案,規劃將現行約 4,000 元的保底年金提高至 5,000 元,但相關法案仍待立法院審議通過。
Homemakers May Receive Monthly Pension of NT$5,000 as National Pension Reform Draws Attention
President Lai Ching-te said on May 24 that in the future, homemakers who are not covered by government employees’ & school staffs’ insurance, labor insurance, or farmer health insurance, and only participate in the National Pension program, may receive at least NT$5,000 in monthly pension payments after reaching the age of 65.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Health and Welfare explained that this is not a new subsidy. Instead, it is part of a National Pension reform plan that would raise the minimum guaranteed pension amount. The Executive Yuan has already proposed a draft amendment that would increase the current basic pension from about NT$4,000 to NT$5,000. However, the bill still needs approval from the Legislative Yuan.

2026 台北國際電腦展將於 6 月 2 日登場,輝達執行長黃仁勳、超微執行長蘇姿丰與英特爾執行長陳立武近期陸續抵達台灣,再度帶動全球市場關注台灣 AI 供應鏈。
隨著 AI 晶片、伺服器與先進封裝需求持續升溫,台積電、廣達與緯創等台廠可望受惠。分析師也指出,在 AI 題材與國際股市回穩帶動下,台股近期仍有機會再挑戰高點。
Three AI Giants Gather in Taiwan as AI Boom Lifts Taiwan Stocks
COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2026 will begin on June 2 in Taipei. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, AMD CEO Lisa Su, and Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan have recently arrived in Taiwan. Their visits have once again drawn global attention to Taiwan’s AI supply chain.
As demand for AI chips, servers, and advanced packaging continues to grow, Taiwanese companies such as TSMC, Quanta, and Wistron are expected to benefit. Analysts also said that supported by AI-related topics and a more stable global stock market, Taiwan’s stock market may still have a chance to challenge new highs in the near future.
第三則:美伊核談判未定案 川普稱不必急著簽
美國總統川普於 5 月 24 日表示,美國與伊朗的協議仍未完全談妥,雙方將持續針對核問題、高濃縮鈾與荷莫茲海峽等議題進行談判。美國國務卿盧比歐也強調,核談判涉及高度專業技術,不可能在短時間內完成。
目前美伊雙方雖已接近初步協議框架,但伊朗資產解凍、核材料處置與制裁解除等關鍵問題仍存在分歧,外界也持續關注中東局勢是否能真正降溫。
U.S.-Iran Nuclear Talks Remain Unfinished as Trump Says There Is No Need to Rush
U.S. President Donald Trump said on May 24 that the agreement between the United States and Iran has not been fully completed yet. Both sides will continue negotiations on issues including nuclear programs, highly enriched uranium, and the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio also stressed that nuclear negotiations involve highly professional technology and cannot be completed in a short time.
Although the United States and Iran are already close to reaching a preliminary agreement framework, major disagreements still remain over issues such as the release of Iranian frozen assets, the handling of nuclear materials, and the lifting of sanctions. The international community is also continuing to watch whether tensions in the Middle East can truly ease.
第四則:電商暢銷商品熱賣背後 庫存成本恐吞利潤
電商業者指出,許多看似熱賣的暢銷商品其實可能讓商家虧錢。若商品每月銷售一萬件,商家通常需要提前準備大量庫存以避免缺貨,但這些庫存會占用資金並增加成本。
專家指出,在平台抽成、運費與行銷競價壓力下,商品毛利率可能快速下降。電商經營除了追求銷量,也必須精算庫存與毛利率,否則暢銷商品可能變成財務風險。
Best-Selling Products May Still Bring Losses to E-Commerce Sellers
E-commerce operators said that many so-called “best-selling products” may actually cause losses for sellers. If a product sells ten thousand units per month, sellers usually need to prepare a large amount of inventory in advance to avoid running out of stock, but this inventory ties up capital and increases costs.
Experts said that under platform commissions, shipping fees, and marketing bidding pressure, product gross profit margins can drop quickly. E-commerce businesses must not only pursue sales volume but also carefully calculate inventory and gross profit margins, otherwise a best-selling product may become a financial risk.
第五則:三商巧福的湯匙好重?網友揭露背後真相
三商巧福因為一篇「湯匙太重」的貼文在社群媒體引發熱議。支持者力挺業者堅持使用日本進口瓷器餐具,認為陶瓷耐高溫且無毒,比塑膠材質更讓人安心。
前員工透露店內餐具可耐受 300 次以上的高溫殺菌清潔。這種不因成本而妥協的長期思維,成功建立起消費者對品牌的信任,守護用餐安全。
Why Are Sanshang Qiaofu’s Spoons So Heavy? Netizens Reveal the Real Reason
Sanshang Qiaofu became a hot topic on social media after a post complained that its spoons were too heavy. Supporters defended the company’s insistence on using ceramic tableware imported from Japan, saying it is heat-resistant and non-toxic, making it safer than plastic materials.
A former employee said the restaurant’s tableware can withstand more than 300 rounds of high-temperature sterilization and cleaning. This long-term mindset, without compromising for lower costs, has helped build consumer trust in the brand and protects food safety.
Let’s wrap up today’s episode. We’ve learned about some important events happening around the world.
Taiwan’s National Pension reform may allow qualified homemakers to receive at least NT$5,000 per month after age 65 if the bill is approved.
The arrival of top AI industry leaders at COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2026 has once again boosted global attention on Taiwan’s AI supply chain and raised expectations for Taiwan’s stock market.
Although the United States and Iran are close to reaching a preliminary agreement framework, key disputes over nuclear issues, sanctions, and frozen assets still remain unresolved.
Best-selling products on e-commerce platforms may still lead to losses if high inventory costs, platform fees, and shrinking gross profit margins are not carefully managed.
Sanshang Qiaofu’s heavy ceramic spoons sparked a debate, ultimately highlighting the brand’s commitment to food safety over low costs.
In the next episode, we will together explore the recent hot news with you in the morning. Don’t forget to come back. Have a nice day and hear me next time. Bye.
