Exclusive report as of 4:05 am on June 26, 2024, by reporter Zhang Shiyi. Residents of Guoxing Township in Nantou have repeatedly discovered organisms resembling cane toads in the past week, mostly appearing at night in large numbers. Due to the toxic nature of cane toads and the serious threat they pose to the local ecosystem, residents are concerned about the potential damage their invasion could cause. After the incident was exposed, it immediately sparked discussion online. Many netizens, upon seeing the pictures provided by residents, questioned the true identity of these organisms, suggesting that they may not be cane toads from the photos but potentially harmless local frog species. They advised against hasty capture and killing, recommending confirmation by professionals instead. Calls were made for local government and environmental organizations to intervene and conduct proper investigations to ensure the correct response measures are taken. Upon receiving the news, the Nantou County government promptly dispatched experts from the Environmental Protection Bureau and the Agriculture Bureau to the scene for investigation. According to initial findings, experts mentioned that the identities of these organisms need further confirmation but currently, there is no evidence to suggest an invasion by cane toads. Biological experts recommended maintaining a calm and scientific approach when dealing with suspected invasive species incidents: Accurate Identification - Detailed biological identification and determining species identity should precede the formulation of appropriate management and control measures. Ecological Protection - Avoiding harm to harmless local organisms and maintaining ecosystem balance. Public Education - Strengthening public education on ecological protection to enhance environmental awareness and scientific literacy.

Economic Minister Guo Zhihui estimates that by 2040, Taiwan will face a talent shortage of around 500,000 in the manufacturing, high-end manufacturing, and service industries. To address this, he introduces a 'borrowing arrows with thatched boats' strategy, encouraging foreign talent to come to Taiwan through investment opportunities and attracting American high school and college graduates to study in Taiwan with scholarships provided by companies. The graduates would then work in Taiwan for a few years before returning to the US. Guo also emphasizes the need for international talent due to Taiwan's low birth rate and growing business needs, especially in areas like technology. He suggests that Taiwanese businesses establishing overseas branches can also contribute to this talent exchange. The strategy involves welcoming foreign students to study in Taiwan as well as inviting US universities to establish branches in Taiwan to attract Asian students, providing full scholarships and job opportunities upon graduation, intending to address the looming talent gap in Taiwan by 2040.
