On Aug. 13, Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Chairwoman Hung Hsiu-chu visited Hualien City to campaign in support of Hualien mayoral candidate Wei Chia-hsien. During her visit, Hung said that although the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) is exploiting the resources of central government to establish a local presence, the public knows which party is genuinely concerned about the development of areas such as tourism and transportation in Hualien, and called on her party to win back the hearts of the public.
Hung added, recently the DPP has taken advantage of its position in government and its local leaders such as Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Chu, Taichung Mayor Lin Chia-lung and Tainan Mayor William Lai to assist with their election campaign. Hung said, although the DPP has used the might of its party machine to besiege Wei, he has excellent credentials and a winning strategy, which means he has no need to rely on similar tactics.
Hung also said, despite losing the advantage of power and recent repeated suppression by the DPP over the issue of its party assets — which has left the KMT in an extremely difficult place — the party must still show unity and ambition.

國民黨主席洪秀柱八月十三日到花蓮為花蓮市長候選人魏嘉賢造勢拜票時說，民進黨雖挾中央資源進駐，但要讓民眾知道，誰才是真正關心花蓮觀光發展、交通等，要把民心找回來。
洪秀柱表示，近日民進黨挾行政優勢及地方首長陳菊、林佳龍、賴清德等來到花蓮輔選，集全黨的力量圍攻魏嘉賢。但魏嘉賢條件優秀，且致勝策略也不僅靠這樣。
洪秀柱說，國民黨雖然失去執政優勢，近日黨產的問題也不斷受到執政黨的壓迫，處境非常地艱難，但國民黨仍必須展現團結與志氣。

The US-Israeli war on Iran, launched on Feb. 28, has set the Middle East alight, threatening millions of people’s lives and livelihoods as the violence spreads in widening arc stretching from central Asia to the edge of Europe. The joint operation, named “Epic Fury” by the US and “Roaring Lion” by Israel, has been sold as a high-impact show of intimidating power, but its impact so far beyond the chaos and bloodshed is unclear. What is certain is that predictions that this type of war would destabilize the region have indeed rapidly materialized. What is the background to this war? For decades, the
When purchasing sunglasses, many people prioritize fashion or comfort. However, experts warn that eye safety should be the foremost concern. Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays can lead to serious eye problems, including cataracts, macular degeneration, and even a painful condition called photokeratitis, or “sunburn of the eye.” Because of these risks, selecting sunglasses with proper UV protection is essential. One common misconception is that darker lenses automatically block more UV rays. In fact, lens color and darkness have little to do with UV protection. A pair of stylish, dark sunglasses without the appropriate coating can be dangerous because
