South Korea recently reinstated loudspeakers to broadcast messages towards North Korea after North Korea repeatedly sent garbage balloons to the South, leading to the suspension of the 2018 military agreement. However, it was found that the loudspeakers purchased by South Korea in 2016 did not meet the required standards, being unable to effectively transmit messages beyond 7 kilometers and often becoming unclear at 5 kilometers. This has raised concerns about the loudspeakers' effectiveness in reaching the North Korean city of Kaesong. The overall goal of these loudspeakers was to broadcast K-pop music and political propaganda towards North Korea, but their performance fell short according to tests. Despite the issues, the broadcasting efforts aim to influence North Korean residents, with defectors citing the impact of previous broadcasts in their decision to defect to South Korea.

Yahoo Kimo (Real-time News) June 16, 2024, 10:36 PM Prosecutors cracked down on a major drug smuggling case several years ago, indirectly dismantling the domestic drug trafficking group led by Lin Xiaodao, only to uncover an 'offside miscarriage of justice'! An undercover informant was wrongly sentenced to a severe penalty, prompting investigations by the Supervisory Yuan, which concluded that insufficient communication and coordination between the prosecutors, police, and coast guard led to the informant being unfairly convicted. The High Prosecutors' Office stated that the informant should be acquitted or have their sentence reduced, and thus filed for a retrial. The case, involving the largest methamphetamine smuggling operation at sea at the time, culminated in the breakup of one of the three major domestic drug trafficking groups, forcing some international drug traffickers to flee abroad. However, as personnel involved in the case were successively imprisoned, a 'miscarriage of justice' emerged. The Supervisory Yuan found that the informant had been wrongly implicated due to flaws in communication and decision-making among prosecutors, police, and the coast guard, and recommended relief be granted. The High Prosecutors' Office has requested a retrial based on this investigation. The involved prosecutor's office and the High Court have acknowledged and are currently processing the retrial petition, relying on assistance from the Legal Aid Foundation. Editor: Qin Yingwen

The industry has maintained growth momentum since the second half of last year, projecting an end to two years of negative growth with a return to growth. The main exports of Taiwan's passive components include capacitors, with a significant decrease in the export share to Mainland China and Hong Kong due to global supply chain shifts, while exports to the US and ASEAN have increased compared to 2017.
