SKorea Overturns PM Impeachment South Korea’s Constitutional Court overturned parliament’s impeachment of Prime Minister Han Duck-soo, reinstating him as acting president. Han, South Korea’s No. 2 official, had become acting leader after President Yoon Suk Yeol was impeached by the opposition-controlled National Assembly over his Dec. 3 imposition (實施) of martial law that triggered a massive political crisis. But Han was impeached by the assembly as well in late December following political strife with opposition lawmakers. The Constitutional Court says today it has decided to overturn Han’s impeachment. The court has yet to issue a ruling on Yoon’s impeachment. Yoon has been separately arrested and charged with rebellion in connection with his martial law decree. If convicted of that charge, he would face the death penalty or a life sentence. And if the court rules against him, South Korea must hold a national election to find a new president.

Chinese 'military unification' influencer 'in theory' must go by 24th Interior Minister Liu Shi-fang says a Chinese national who advocated for China's annexation of Taiwan through military force should, "in theory," leave the country within 10 days of receiving her deportation order. According to Liu, the woman received that deportation order on Saturday. Speaking during a legislative hearing, the interior minister said the deportation order is "somewhat similar (相似的)" to registered mail - where the time starts from the day after the recipient receives the letter. .. and if "it was delivered to your house but you didn't receive it until the next day, then counting would start from the third day, which means there is some wiggle room." The statement comes after the National Immigration Agency this past weekend announced that a deportation order had been sent to a woman identified by a public social media account known as "Yaya in Taiwan."

MOFA protests rep office name change on South African gov't website The Ministry of Foreign Affairs says it has lodged an official protest over the "unilateral" change to the name of Taiwan's representative office on a South African government website. The statement comes after an update to the Department of International Relations and Cooperation website listed the "Taipei Liaison Office" as the "Taipei Commercial Office." According to the foreign ministry, the South African government is seeking to "downgrade" the representative office and recategorize it as a "trade office" based in the commercial capital Johannesburg. South Africa has set a deadline of the end of this month for Taiwan to change the name of its representative office and relocate it.

Kaohsiung's Fengshan Marathon apologizes for PLA rifle trophies The organizers of Sunday's Fengshan Marathon in Kaohsiung have apologized for giving out trophies shaped like a Chinese military rifle. According to the Fengshan Road Running Association, it originally chose the design for the trophies because the 2025 edition of the annual marathon passed through three military academies. However, the association says it recognized the choice was "inconsiderate" and had apologized to those who received the trophies. The association also says it will contact all trophy recipients to replace the rifle-shaped trophies with alternatives. The statement was issued after one of the participants of Sunday's marathon posted a photograph of the trophy and joked about how it was shaped like Chinese rifle.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 125-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,403 on turnover of 6.5-billion N-T. Shares in Taiwan closed higher on a technical rebound Wednesday from a slump a session earlier, led by large cap tech stocks. But analysts say parts of earlier gains were eroded amid uncertainties caused by U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff policies. With the rebound featuring tech stocks, old economy industries largely moved in weakness caused by tariff concerns. Taiwan Closed National Freeway Lane for Earliest Butterfly Protection in Decade Highway officials closed part of National Freeway 3 yesterday in Yunlin County, due to a large migration of purple crow butterflies. And according to local conservationists, this marked the earliest closure (關閉) before the usual peak around the Tomb Sweeping Festival in early April. Conservationists reported over 30-thousand purple crow butterflies migrated through the area in the morning, peaking at 690 per minute. The Freeway Bureau installed a 1,100-meter protective net and closed an outer lane once butterfly traffic exceeded 250 per minute. Experts say an early migration was triggered by a colder winter followed by recent warm weather, with butterfly numbers expected to surge from March 20th until the end of the month.

Argentina Protests Against Austerity Measures Argentine retirees and fans of several soccer teams have clashed with police during a protest in front of Congress in the capital, Buenos Aires, against the economic policies implemented by the government of President Javier Milei.

For weeks, Buenos Aires retirees have held weekly protests demanding higher pensions, citing a precarious standard of living. The government of far-right President Javier Milei, who has championed a policy of public spending cuts since coming to power a year and a half ago, had warned of restrictions on entry to stadiums for those who cause disorder (動亂). Greenland Independence Party Surprise Victory in Parliamentary Elections A party that favors a gradual path to Greenland’s independence from Denmark has won a surprise victory in parliamentary elections. Tuesday's voting was held in the shadow of U.S. President Donald Trump’s stated goal of taking control of the island. The Demokraatit Party, a pro-business party that favors a slow path to independence, has pushed back against Trump’s rhetoric, saying it is for Greenlanders to decide the future of the strategically (在戰略上) important territory. The mineral-rich Arctic island is also home to a U.S. air base and straddles strategic air and sea routes in the North Atlantic. That was the I.C.R.T.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 58-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 22,930 on turnover of $5.9-billion N-T.

Under current regulations, beef from Japan must meet several conditions, including being derived from cattle under 30 months of age, inspected by a veterinary officer, and produced by an officially-recognized factory. F-D-A Deputy Director-General Lin Jin-fu says the government is seeking to update the "Import regulations for Japanese beef and its products" to remove the age limit for Japanese cattle - similar to regulatory practices in the United States and Canada.

Speaking during an interview with an online media outlet, Lin said for Taiwan's national interests, the government is finding interests shared with Washington and focusing on pushing policies where the interests of both countries are aligned.

USAID funding cuts could impact Taiwan's health system A doctor at the Taipei City Hospital's Zhongxing Branch is warning that cuts to the U-S Agency for International Development could impact Taiwan's public health system, which "relies"(依賴) on internationally collected data. It comes after the U-S last month announced plans to eliminate more than 90-per cent of US-AID's foreign aid contracts, totaling more than 58-billion dollars. According Chiang Guan-yu, US-AID cuts will reduce (減少) information sharing between American health agencies and international organizations such as the World Health Organization - which in turn could negatively impact Taiwan. The Centers for Disease Control says although Taiwan is not a member of the W-H-O, there are other "friendly countries" besides the U-S that are willing to exchange epidemic prevention information.

The king has come under criticism in Canada after Buckingham Palace declined (拒絕) to comment on Trump’s threats to annex Canada.
