Lo Wen-chia, Vice Chairman and Secretary-General of the Straits Exchange Foundation, reiterated that the People's Republic of China has no judicial jurisdiction over Taiwan, so any legal norms have no binding effect on Taiwanese citizens. Lo Wen-chia emphasized that such documents, like the 22 Punishments for Taiwan Independence Advocates, are threats and intimidation that do not promote positive cross-strait exchanges and might even cause harm. With many national security laws in effect in recent years, including regulations giving national security law enforcement officers the authority to inspect passengers' belongings and electronic devices, Lo Wen-chia advised caution when traveling to China or studying there.

China recently released a document on punishing 'Taiwan independence' diehards, stating that severe offenders could face the death penalty. The Chinese Taiwan Affairs Office spokesperson Zhu Fenglian emphasized that those who break the law, regardless of where they are, will be pursued by the Chinese authorities. However, Zhu reassured that ordinary Taiwanese need not worry as the judicial document only targets a 'minimal' number of extreme Taiwan independence diehards. The document permits the death penalty for severe offenses and even lifelong accountability, including trial in absentia. If individuals are prosecuted by Chinese authorities and are abroad, the Mainland does not have the jurisdiction to sanction them. Zhu asserted that Taiwan is an inseparable part of China and that the country's actions against Taiwan independence diehards are a lawful defense of national sovereignty, unity, and territorial integrity. Zhu further explained that those who willingly renounce the Taiwan independence stance, cease separatist activities, take measures to mitigate or eliminate harm, or prevent harm escalation, may not face criminal charges. The document does not disturb the general Taiwanese population and specifically targets extreme Taiwan independence advocates. Zhu encouraged the Taiwanese to actively participate in cross-strait exchanges and cooperation, oppose separatist forces, and engage in promoting positive cross-strait relations.

With soaring house prices, the New Qingshan loan has become a catalyst for first-time homebuyers! Property expert Sway is concerned that the low salary issue of 22K in the past has now escalated into a 40-year mortgage problem. The increasing house loans and rentals have added to the heavy financial burden of the majority. While the loan is aimed at assisting first-time homebuyers with no age or marital restrictions, recent criticisms about ghost borrowers and subletting have sparked concerns about the loan contributing to rising prices, prompting Prime Minister Cho Rong-tai to convene a meeting to address these issues. Sway further points out how this wave of price increase in housing can be traced back to the previous administration, and questions the effectiveness of current government policies in curbing such problems.
