The Central Union Oil Corporation Carcinogenic Oil case continues to grow. On July 21, the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration sent an independent investigation team to inspect the company’s production and quality control procedures. The investigation is expected to be completed within one week. Based on the findings, the agency will require Central Union Oil Corporation to submit an improvement plan. The company will be allowed to fully resume operations only after all corrective measures are completed.
The agency has also proposed ten key amendments to the food safety law.

今年城鎮韌性演習首度加入「行動網路降速」演練,政府將於 8 月 10 日中部及 8 月 13 日北部演習期間,在 14 個縣市實施 30 分鐘網路降速,模擬災害或網路攻擊造成通訊受阻的情境,驗證政府與民眾的應變能力。
政府表示,這次演練並非斷網,而是測試在有限通訊資源下如何維持重要服務,未來也將逐步擴大到全國。政府提醒民眾,演習期間可優先使用語音、簡訊或 Wi-Fi 等替代方式,提前熟悉緊急應變流程。
Taiwan’s Urban Drill Slows Internet for First Time, 14 Areas Affected
The 2026 Urban Resilience Exercise will include a mobile network slowdown drill for the first time. During exercises in central Taiwan on August 10 and northern Taiwan on August 13, the government will slow mobile internet for 30 minutes across 14 counties and cities. The drill will simulate communication problems caused by disasters or cyberattacks and test how well the government and the public can respond.
The government said the exercise will not cut off internet access. Instead, it will test how important services can continue when communication resources are limited, and the drill will gradually expand nationwide. The government reminded the public to use voice calls, text messages, or Wi-Fi during the exercise and become familiar with emergency response procedures in advance.
第三則:南海仁愛暗沙再爆衝突!美國譴責中國侵略行動
菲律賓軍方指控,中國海警於 7 月 20 日在仁愛暗沙持棍擊傷一名菲律賓士兵,並損壞菲方橡皮艇。中國則反控菲方船艇先衝撞巡邏艇,並惡意攻擊中方人員,雙方互指對方挑釁。

South China Sea Clash Erupts Again at Second Thomas Shoal, U.S. Condemns China’s Aggressive Actions
The Philippine military accused the China Coast Guard of striking a Philippine soldier with a wooden stick at Second Thomas Shoal on July 20 and damaging a Philippine rubber boat. China responded by accusing the Philippine vessels of ramming its patrol boat first and deliberately attacking Chinese personnel, with both sides blaming the other for the provocation.
The U.S. State Department condemned China’s actions as dangerous and aggressive, saying the incident threatened regional peace and stability. Since the clash happened just before the ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Meeting, rising tensions in the South China Sea may become a major topic of discussion among participating countries.

The Key to Nintendo’s Comeback, Failure Led to the Success of the Famicom
Former Nintendo president Hiroshi Yamauchi expanded into businesses such as taxi services, food products, and large amusement facilities. However, many of these investments failed, and the company once faced debts of as much as 5 billion yen, putting Nintendo in serious financial trouble. Even so, he never stopped innovating or taking on new challenges.
Yamauchi later led Nintendo into the home video game market. The company launched the Famicom, a game console with high performance and an affordable price. It became a huge bestseller and helped establish Nintendo as a major company in the global gaming industry. Learning from failure and continuing to innovate became the key to Nintendo’s success.

啦啦隊不只提升觀賽氣氛,也能帶動票房、周邊銷售與品牌合作;例如售票演唱會創造可觀收入,周邊提高商品買氣。球團認為,啦啦隊有助吸引非球迷進場,擴大粉絲基礎。
Cheerleaders Open New Business Opportunities! Boosting Tickets and Merchandise Across Taiwan Sports
Taiwanese-style sports cheering has spread from professional baseball to professional basketball over the past 10 years, becoming a defining feature of Taiwan’s professional sports scene. After the Lamigo Monkeys, now known as the Rakuten Monkeys, introduced electronic music-based cheering in 2013, loud electronic beats, synchronized dance routines, and upbeat team images gradually helped turn cheerleaders into a major attraction at games.
Cheerleaders do more than energize the crowd at games. They can also boost ticket sales, merchandise revenue, and brand partnerships. Ticketed concerts, for example, have generated strong income, while cheerleader merchandise has helped increase product sales. Teams say cheerleaders can draw non-sports fans to games and help expand their fan base.
