According to SET News on July 5, 2024, DPP legislator Hung Shen-han stated that KMT legislator Chen Xuesheng recently proposed amending the 'Offshore Development Act' to allow participation of Chinese businesses in public construction on outlying islands without restrictions, resembling Taiwan's version of One Belt One Road. Hung criticized Chen for aiming to allow Chinese funds, companies, and manpower to control over 700 billion in infrastructure projects, referring to it as a grand plan with significant economic interests. Hung argued that this move mirrors the debt traps faced by countries involved in China's Belt and Road Initiative, emphasizing that while portrayed as local development, it actually opens doors for Chinese influence and aims to benefit the Chinese Communist Party at the expense of ordinary citizens, particularly affecting the residents of Matsu.

The DPP caucus suggested sending the draft back to the Procedure Committee, which was not objected by the KMT caucus, leading Han Kuo-yu to confirm once again whether the KMT caucus and other parties had any objections, and announced 'no objections passed.' The proposed amendment aims to involve mainland Chinese companies in procurement to encourage off-island industrial development and promote public construction on the islands, with the Legislative Yuan sending the case back to the Procedure Committee today.

While the PLA set up a no-fly zone and airspace control in the waters off Zhejiang, it is speculated to be an annual naval live-fire drill conducted by the Eastern Theater Command.

On July 4, 2024, Huang Zhechong, the director of the Taiwan Academy of Banking and Finance, visited the western US with the Bankers Association to explore Silicon Valley's tech giants such as Microsoft, Nvidia, and Google's various imaginations for AI financial services, as well as how Wells Fargo, the largest bank in the west, is adapting to ESG finance development with technology. The visit led to reflections on the past and future of financial development in a small town, reminiscent of the rich history of the town of Virginia City, once the wealthiest town in the US in the 1860s due to its mining resources. The town's prosperity was intertwined with the development of financial services, such as innovative banking operations and encrypted telegram systems by Wells Fargo, mirroring the need for stagecoach and security services in the banking sector. The arrival of the AI age presents new challenges like fraud and hacking, necessitating a 'zero trust' mindset in financial transactions. This analogy is likened to being a 'wild bounty hunter' in the digital era's wild west, underscoring the evolving security threats facing financial institutions.
