Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News.



Tai-Ex opening
The Tai-Ex opened down 366-points this morning from yesterday's close, at
33,216 on turnover of $16-billion N-T.



Pedestrian lights to cancel fast-walking signal
The Ministry of Transport says it plans to phase out faster-paced walking
animation on some pedestrian signals islandwide by the end of this year.

According to the ministry, the move is aimed at discouraging pedestrians to
run across intersections.

The ministry's Department of Railways, Highways and Road Safety says the
decision was made during a road safety briefing at the Cabinet earlier this
week.

Department head Wu Dong-ling says while the flashing green signal that
appears in the final seconds of a pedestrian light will remain, the
faster-paced walking animation used in some areas will be removed.

Wu also says the Cabinet has asked the transport ministry to coordinate with
local governments on the adjustments and ensure that signal designs are
standardized nationwide by the end of the year.

Only Chiayi County, Kinmen and Matsu don't use the fast-walking signal.



Iraq plan to get oil flowing
As the War in Iran continues to disrupt global oil flows, Iraq is trying to
strike a deal that would allow its oil to flow through the autonomous
Kurdistan Region.

But Iraqi Kurds want something in return.

Olly Barratt explains from the region's capital -


Canada to Spend Billions on Northern Military Operating Locations
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says he is putting an additional $32
billion into military forward operating locations in the North to assert
sovereignty over the increasingly contested region.

The prime minister made the announcement in Yellowknife, the capital city of
Canada’s Northwest Territories, before he takes off for his planned visit to
Norway where he will observe a NATO exercise.

The additional funds comes as U.S. President Donald Trump called earlier this
year for the U.S. to take control of Greenland, the Inuit self-governing
territory of the kingdom of Denmark.

Trump has also talked about making Canada the 51st state.



Cuba Announces Prisoner Release
Cuba’s government says it will release 51 people from the island’s jails in
an unexpected move.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the release in the upcoming days stems
from a spirit of goodwill and close relations with the Vatican.

The government did not identify who it would release (釋放), except to say
that “all have served a significant (相當長的時間) part of their sentence
and have maintained good conduct in prison.”

The government said it has granted pardons to 9-thousand-905 inmates since
2010.

放慢了車速,心跳卻加速;
將你的手輕輕收進我外套的口袋,
隔絕涼意,卻藏不住滿溢的悸動。
紅燈停下的瞬間,影子重疊著曖昧;
永遠難忘的心動秘密,
都藏在……同一陣風裡。
