第一則：長崎原爆典禮座位安排矮化台灣？台灣降級出席抗議
日本長崎原爆和平紀念典禮於 8 月 9 日舉行，台灣駐日代表李逸洋未出席。長崎市政府將台灣代表安排在使節團區域外，矮化台灣國家地位，因此我方調降出席層級，改由駐福岡辦事處處長出席。
李逸洋表示台日長期在經貿、觀光及災害援助上關係深厚，長崎市不應照中國施壓打壓台灣。長崎市政府回應，台灣代表與去年一樣安排在海外席，是因為特別來賓席座位有限，否認刻意降低台灣層級。
Nagasaki Ceremony Seating Undermines Taiwan’s Status? Taiwan Protests With Lower-Level Representation
Japan held its Nagasaki atomic bomb peace ceremony on August 9, but Taiwan’s representative to Japan, Lee Yi-yang, did not attend. Nagasaki officials seated Taiwan’s representative outside the area reserved for diplomatic delegations, which Taiwan said undermined its national status. In response, Taiwan lowered the level of its representation and sent the head of its Fukuoka Branch instead.
Lee Yi-yang said Taiwan and Japan have strong ties in trade, tourism, and disaster relief, and that Nagasaki should not treat Taiwan unfairly because of pressure from China. The Nagasaki city government said Taiwan’s representative was placed in the overseas guest section, as in the previous year, because space in the special guest section was limited. It also denied intentionally lowering Taiwan’s status.
第二則：搶攻先進封裝藍海市場？傳台積電砸 300 億買友達舊廠
台積電預計買下友達中科 2 座舊廠房，擴充先進封裝產能，比照群創合作模式布局，消息指出目前交易已進入洽談與實地稽核階段，金額估計超過 300 億元，創下本土面板廠舊廠售出最高金額。
業界分析，先進封裝正朝玻璃基板取代傳統矽晶圓發展。若交易完成，台積電可加速擴充產能，友達也能活化舊資產、布局先進封裝藍海市場，加速公司轉型。
Targeting the Advanced Packaging Market? TSMC Reportedly Eyes NT$30 Billion Deal for AUO Factories
TSMC is reportedly planning to buy two former AUO factories in the Central Taiwan Science Park to expand its advanced packaging capacity. The deal, which follows a similar model to TSMC’s collaboration with Innolux, has reportedly entered the negotiation and on-site inspection stage. The transaction is estimated to be worth more than NT$30 billion, making it potentially the largest sale of old factories by a Taiwanese panel maker.
Industry experts say advanced packaging is moving toward glass substrates instead of traditional silicon wafers. If the deal is completed, TSMC could expand capacity more quickly, while AUO could make better use of its old assets, enter the advanced packaging market, and speed up its business transformation.
第三則：國防總預算拚歷史新高！上看 1.1 兆強化整體防衛
行政院會預計於 8 月 20 日拍板 116 年度總預算案，整體歲出將增至 3.6 兆元，國防預算預估上看 1.1 兆元，占歲出近 1/3，再創歷史新高，朝國防預算占 GDP 3% 以上目標邁進。
明年度國防預算改採北大西洋公約組織標準，除了國防部公務預算，也納入海巡署、退輔會及特別預算。其中特別預算項目包括，強化不對稱戰力採購與無人載具等計畫，以因應局勢變化提升整體防衛能力。
Taiwan Defense Budget Could Hit Record High! NT$1.1 Trillion Plan to Strengthen Overall Defense
Taiwan’s Cabinet is expected to approve the 2027 central government budget on August 20, with total spending set to rise to NT$3.6 trillion. The defense budget is projected to reach NT$1.1 trillion, accounting for nearly one-third of total spending and potentially setting a new record. The plan would move Taiwan closer to its goal of spending more than 3% of GDP on defense.
Starting next year, Taiwan will calculate defense spending based on NATO standards. In addition to the Ministry of National Defense budget, the total will include spending by the Coast Guard Administration, the Veterans Affairs Council, and special budgets. These special budgets cover plans to strengthen asymmetric defense capabilities and expand unmanned vehicle programs, with the goal of improving Taiwan’s overall defense capabilities.
第四則：交辦工作別只會畫大餅 讓員工接受更重要
主管在分派無趣或棘手任務時，常用激勵、願景或權威要求員工配合，但這些方法未必能讓員工真心投入。研究指出，真正關鍵不是說服員工喜歡任務，而是提高對任務的接受度。
管理者可透過清楚定案、確保分配公平，並讓員工保有一定掌控感，幫助員工接受「這件事就是需要完成」。當員工心理上接受任務後，通常更願意調整態度，投入更多心力完成工作。
Stop Making Empty Promises, Employee Acceptance Matters More
When managers assign boring or difficult tasks, they often use rewards, future promises, or authority to gain employee support. However, these methods may not lead to real commitment. Research shows that the key is not to make employees like the task, but to increase their acceptance of it.
Managers can clearly confirm the decision, ensure fair task distribution, and give employees some sense of control. These steps can help employees accept that “this task needs to be done.” Once employees accept the task mentally, they are usually more willing to adjust their attitude and put more effort into completing the work.
第五則：生活耗盡精力 低能量穿搭成救星
近期，社群媒體上掀起「低能量穿搭」風潮，年輕世代偏好柔軟、低調與簡潔的基本款。這種穿搭看似隨性，其實反映了人們面對資訊過載、社群壓力與倦怠感時，對穩定和簡單的渴望。
時尚心理學家指出，簡約穿搭能減少選擇壓力，讓人感覺更有掌控感。當生活越來越複雜，穿得簡單，成為年輕人找回安全感的一種方式。
Life Is Draining Our Energy, Low-Energy Dressing Becomes a Lifesaver
Recently, “low-energy dressing” has become popular on social media. Younger generations are choosing soft, understated, and simple basics. This style may look casual, but it actually reflects people’s desire for stability and simplicity as they face information overload, social media pressure, and burnout.
Fashion psychologists point out that minimalist outfits can reduce decision stress and help people feel more in control. As life becomes more complicated, dressing simply has become one way for young people to regain a sense of security.
Let’s wrap up today’s episode. We’ve learned about some important events happening around the world.
Taiwan sent a lower-level representative to the Nagasaki peace ceremony over a seating dispute, while Nagasaki denied trying to diminish Taiwan’s status.
TSMC is reportedly seeking to buy two AUO factories to accelerate the expansion of its advanced packaging capacity.
Taiwan’s defense budget is projected to reach NT$1.1 trillion, with increased spending aimed at strengthening the country’s overall defense capabilities.
Employees are more likely to commit to difficult tasks when managers ensure fairness, provide clarity, and give them a sense of control.
The rise of “low-energy dressing” reflects the young generation’s desire for stability and control, turning simple fashion into a psychological coping mechanism against modern burnout.
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.
