title: 經濟部：口罩2/1起單片降至6元 維持限購

content_text:
（中央社記者蔡芃敏台北30日電）經濟部表示，因年假 業者成本較高，才將口罩定價新台幣8元，不過假期已 結束，口罩自2月1日起單片降至新台幣6元，維持限購 政策。未來供需恢復正常後，價格就會回歸市場機制。

經濟部晚間發布新聞稿表示，由於年假期間，物流 、廠商等人力成本都較平時高，以物流業者為例，緊急 召回駕駛的加班費都較平日翻倍，因此將口罩定價一片 8元，目前年假已結束，與通路商、物流商、製造商協 調後，口罩2月1日起售價會調降為每片6元。未來恢復 正常供需後，價格就回歸市場機制。

受到武漢肺炎影響，台灣口罩需求大幅提升，單日 超商銷量已是超過先前42倍。經濟部表示，為了讓民眾 能夠持續買到口罩，避免供需失衡、哄抬價格，政府採 取統一徵購、統一調控、統一售價等三原則因應，中央 流行疫情指揮中心已經宣布，將全面徵購國內廠商的每 日製造產量。

經濟部表示，中央流行疫情指揮中心統一徵購的政 策，暫定持續至2月15日止。每日徵購的製造產量約為 一天400萬片，日後會努力加大產能。400萬片的分配為 140萬片提供醫療及防疫公務使用，60萬片給醫院內的 藥妝、藥局、醫材通路提供民眾就醫使用，其餘200萬 片釋出給四大超商，並維持每人限買1至3片。

經濟部說，自2月1日起政府統一徵購後，口罩一律 依中央疫情指揮中心統籌，目前依據上述醫療防疫、超 商、醫院內或周遭的藥妝、藥局、醫材通路等通路分配 ，防疫期間請各界體諒，依據中央疫情指揮中心的調度 購買。

經濟部表示，請民眾優先讓有慢性病、就醫、陪病 、探病需求者購買，目前產能已恢復，每天都會穩定供 貨，請民眾在購買口罩時，記得夠用就好，不要囤積。 （編輯：黃國倫）1090130

title: 〈財報〉Q4營收優預期 可口可樂上調今年營運目標 盤前漲逾1%

content_text:
【鉅亨網編譯林薏禎】

週四 (30 日) 可口可樂公司 (Coca Cola) 公布 2019 年第 4 季和全年財報，在汽水、運動飲料等飲品銷售推動下，第 4 季營收高於分析師預期，該公司同時上調今年營運目標，推動盤前股價漲逾 1%。

截至台北時間晚間 9 時許，可口可樂 (KO-US) 盤前股價上漲 1.03%，暫報每股 57.60 美元。

可口可樂盤前股價 (圖：Investing.com)Q4 財報關鍵數據淨收入報 91 億美元，年增 16%，高於 Refinitiv 對分析師調查預期的 89 億美元基於 non GAAP 的有機收入年增 7% 基於 non GAAP 每股純益 (EPS) 為 0.44 美元，年增 1%，符合分析師預期；全年基於 non GAAP 每股純益 (EPS) 為 2.11 美元，年增 1% 基於 non GAAP 營業利潤率為 24.8%，與去年同期相同，全年基於 non GAAP 營業利潤率為 27.9%，低於去年同期的 28.8%以產品類別來看：

汽水 (包含可樂、健怡可樂、芬達和雪碧)：受惠於中國、巴西以及東南亞地區的銷售增長，汽水銷售額季增 3%，年增 2% 果汁、乳製品和植物性飲品：季度和年度增長均持平。儘管位於奈及利亞的果汁公司 Chi 銷售表現亮眼，不過銷售額同時因中東地區的 Rani 飲品銷售不佳而遭抵消。水、營養強化水和運動飲料：在拉丁美洲的飲品 Ciel 和 Cristal，以及全球運動飲料產品組合的強勁推動下，銷售額季增 2%，年增 3%近年來隨著消費者越來越注重健康，除了含糖飲料，可口可樂持續推動更多產品組合，像是咖啡、茶和低糖飲料，為消費者帶來更多選擇。

可口可樂表示，去年第 4 季 Zero 可樂銷售增長強勁，取得雙位數百分比增長。另外，新推出的提神飲料 Coke Plus Coffee 也在國際市場大受歡迎。目前該項產品尚未進駐美國市場。

公司財測

可口可樂董事長兼首席執行長 James Quincey 表示：「通過履行財務承諾推動可持續增長，可口可樂在 2019 年取得良好進展，未來將透過組織轉變，繼續實現成長。」

可口可樂預計，2020 年有機收入將增長 5％，調整後每股純益將增長 7％，達到 2.25 美元。

title: 口罩單片售價8元 經濟部承諾後續會調降

content_text:
（中央社記者蔡芃敏台北30日電）武漢肺炎疫情延燒， 政府祭出口罩限購政策，不過，一片口罩售價新台幣8 元，外界擔心價格會「回不去」。經濟部表示，統一價 格是為了避免市場哄抬價格，口罩後續價格會再調降。

為了因應口罩需求，疾管署28日宣布，釋出600萬 片口罩，每人限購3片、每片定價8元，不過，仍出現口 罩短缺現象。嚴重特殊傳染性肺炎（武漢肺炎）中央流 行疫情指揮中心今天傍晚宣布，政府自31日起將全數徵 用國內口罩，提供民生需求每天約釋出260萬片，醫療 或公務防疫及儲備需求每天則約有140萬片，且釋出口 罩將延續每人一次限買1至3片，暫定至2月15日止

經濟部官員表示，口罩通常是超商冷門商品，不過 ，現在單日銷量達到120多萬片，即便政府釋出口罩， 口罩依舊快速完銷，因此，延續限購政策至2月15日， 之後會再視口罩產能、疫情狀況，會滾動檢討政策。

不過，相較疫情爆發前，大賣場販售200片裝的口 罩一盒不到400元，外界擔心口罩價格會「回不去」。

經濟部官員表示，政府是為了避免供需失衡、哄抬 價格，口罩需求暴增，單日銷量已經超過平常42倍，加 上年假期間，業者物流、人力成本比較高，舉例來說， 若物流業者年假期間召回司機，加班費就是平常3倍至4 倍，經濟部才會召集業者統一價格，後續價格會再調降 。（編輯：黃國倫）1090130

▲武漢肺炎衝擊，台股鼠年首個交易日崩跌696點，金管會出面信心喊話，強調台股基本面及台灣總體經濟良好，會持續關注後續發展，若有不理性下跌，必要時會採取相關穩定措施。（圖／NOWnews資料照片）
武漢肺炎全球蔓延，台股鼠年開春首個交易日崩跌了696點，金管會今（30）日也信心喊話，台股成交量放大2754億元，顯示有眾多投資人逢低承接，對市場仍具信心，目前台股基本面及台灣總體經濟良好，並強調若股市有非理性下跌，必要時將採取相關穩定措施。

台股今日收在11421.74 點，下跌696.97點，跌幅5.75%，成交量約2754億元，金管會分析，主要是因農曆春節封關期間，各國股市受到武漢肺炎疫情影響，普遍呈現下跌走勢，而台股本日年假後首日開盤亦面臨補跌壓力，且跌幅較亞洲股市為大。

不過，金管會認為台股今日集中市場成交量約2754億元，較1月日均成交量約1556億元明顯放大，顯示有眾多投資人逢低承接，對市場仍具信心。

此外，各國股市短期雖受武漢肺炎疫情影響而受到衝擊，但股市長期仍將回歸基本面。金管會指出，目前上市櫃公司營收及獲利穩定，經統計上市櫃公司2019年截至12月底累積營收合計約34.05兆元，與去年同期相較約略持平，另台股截至去年12月底本益比約19.57倍，現金殖利率達3.67%（加計股票股利為3.82%），顯示台股基本面良好。

同時，政府近年來推動經濟轉型創新，優化投資環境，透過前瞻基礎建設，帶動投資、擴大內需，現在資金進來的增多、出去的減少，不論是廠商、經濟學者及國際預測機構，都預期未來台灣的經濟成長會再加速，希望投資人對台灣經濟有信心。

對於武漢肺炎疫情，金管會說目前有受影響的部分上市櫃公司針對疫情發展及大陸延後復工，已採行相關因應措施，包括通知客戶調整出貨時間、盤點防疫相關物資及掌握員工的動向、機動調整生產排配、復工後彈性調高產能、成立防疫因應小組等，截至目前上市櫃公司所發布的重大訊息，尚無顯示有重大影響。

金管會也已請證交所及櫃買中心密切注意疫情發展，並已請上市櫃公司持續評估後續影響情形，注意依相關資訊公開規定即時發布重大訊息，以供投資人判斷。

金管會也再次強調，目前台股基本面及台灣總體經濟良好，將持續密切觀察武漢肺炎疫情、美中貿易摩擦、美國聯準會利率政策及外資進出我國股市情形等因素，若股市發生非理性下跌情事，必要時將採取相關穩定措施。

▲出國搭機前，建議先諮詢旅遊門診，避免突如其來的身體不適。（圖／pixabay）

記者謝承恩／綜合報導

很多人喜歡出國遊玩，但本身屬於慢性病患者、身體有異狀，或是接受重大手術，即將遠行或前往潛在疫區，記得諮詢「旅遊門診」，做好安全準備與評估，讓旅程更盡興！醫師也提醒，發生心肌梗塞、腦中風、心衰竭、嚴重貧血等族群，更不宜立即出國。

亞洲大學附屬醫院家庭醫學科主任林益卿表示，觀光局統計，100年至107年期間，出國旅遊人次年平均成長率為8%，而20%-70%旅客曾於旅途出現健康問題，其中1%-5%旅客曾尋求醫療協助，0.01%-0.1%旅客需要急診治療，其中約每10萬名旅客中，就有1位會在旅途中死亡，讓原本應充滿美好回憶的旅程，反倒成為家人心中的遺憾。

林益卿指出，若本身有嚴重貧血(血紅素少於8.5g/dl)、六週內曾發生心肌梗塞者、二週內曾發生腦中風、接受心臟手術或開胸手術，以及六週內曾有難以控制的嚴重高血壓、深層靜脈栓塞、心臟衰竭代償失調與未控制的心律不整者，都強烈建議不宜立即出國。

▲深層靜脈栓塞、心臟衰竭、做過心臟手術等患者，須經醫師評估能否出國。（圖／123RF）

另外針對慢性病患者，例如需要胰島素注射的糖尿病病患，因長程旅行會出現時差問題，其胰島素的注射劑量需有所調整，而一般人在長途飛行後得到深部靜脈栓塞的機率約為0.01％-0.04%，若患有心血管疾病的病人，其發生率更高，若在旅遊前諮詢，將可獲得適當的處方與建議，以預防深部靜脈栓塞的發生。

林益卿指出，常見的旅遊相關傳染性疾病包括腹瀉、瘧疾、呼吸道感染、A型肝炎、B型肝炎、皮膚感染、性傳染病等，建議旅遊前常規預防注射包括小兒麻痺疫苗、破傷風疫苗以及兒童時期按時程所施打之疫苗，另外針對某些特殊的疫情也應事前施打相關疫苗。

醫師提醒，理想的狀況下，旅客應於出國前四至六週接受旅遊諮詢，由醫師進行專業評估及必要預防醫療措施，對於出國期間曾發生任何健康問題者，或旅遊地區發生任何疫情時、或是回國後三週內，發生高燒、腹瀉、淋巴腺腫大、全身肌肉酸痛、皮膚紅疹等任一情形，都應回門診做疾病的評估以及持續的追蹤與治療。

旅遊醫學門診可提供旅遊前健康風險評估、預防藥物及疫苗注射等諮詢服務，旅客回國後也可至門診安排疾病治療及追蹤，若是即將出國進修的民眾，也可至門診辦理出國留學體檢及申請證明書，針對移民的民眾，則可先進行健康檢查，對於各類旅遊健康相關問題，如生理期調整、時差調整、老人和旅遊者慢性病的健康管理，都可以在旅遊醫學門診獲得完整解答。

台北2020年1月30日 /美通社/ -- Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI)今日宣佈與現代汽車公司(HMC)達成策略合作，現代汽車計畫推出汽車業界首次採用ADI汽車音訊匯流排(A2B®)技術的全數位路面噪音消除系統，並計畫在其汽車產品的基礎音訊連接和資訊娛樂系統中更廣泛地採用ADI的A2B技術。

現代汽車研究員Kang-Duck Ih博士表示：「作為早期採用A2B技術的公司，我們意識到該技術不僅適用於道路噪音主動控制系統(RANC)，同時也適用於其他提升乘客和駕駛體驗的車輛應用。A2B技術確保了低延遲特性，讓我們能建置此突破性的RANC技術並加速實現量產。」

現代汽車的RANC系統能大幅降低車輛座艙內的噪音。該系統可即時分析各種噪音，並產生反相聲波。例如，該新技術可處理如輪胎和車輪之間的共振聲、或者來自路面的轟隆聲等多種不同道路噪音。

ADI汽車電氣化和資訊娛樂事業部副總裁Patrick Morgan表示：「我們與現代汽車密切合作聯手打造全數位RANC系統，運用ADI的A2B技術來降低設備成本、重量和設計複雜性，進而提高總體燃油效率，協助因應與電子RANC系統相關的各種挑戰。ADI與現代汽車公司的合作不僅印證了A2B技術的日益重要性，並進一步提高該公司的市場競爭力。」

A2B可減少高達75%的電纜重量、提高汽車的燃油效率並降低總系統成本。ADI的A2B技術為業界最低延遲的高速數位互聯技術，可透過單對非遮罩雙絞線傳輸音訊、控制資料、時脈及電源。目前，汽車路面噪音消除系統之部署需要經濟高效的低延遲網路技術將所需的輸入感測器高效連接到中央處理器單元，相較於基於類比技術的傳統路面噪音消除系統方案，ADI的 A2B技術可顯著降低相關的線束成本和複雜性。如需瞭解更多相關A2B之資訊請瀏覽：www.analog.com/a2b

ADI與現代汽車的合作彰顯了A2B在汽車應用領域的重要性，汽車製造商將該技術用於新興的線路密集和延遲敏感型應用，包括路面噪音消除、車內通訊，以及個性化的音訊或聲音分區。

NICOLAS 在法國擁有500多家自營店，目前仍陸續進軍國際市場，並在西班牙（馬貝拉）和中國（臺灣）設立另外兩家特許經營店。 NICOLAS 現在有8個特許經營國家。

在致力於確保提供法國每位客戶獨特的品嘗體驗、個性化建議和最佳服務之後，NICOLAS 品牌正在尋求新的發展策略：在國際新市場開放其網絡。

在此背景下，NICOLAS 在臺灣和西班牙的馬貝拉設立兩家特許經營店。第一家在去年10月開業，第二家在聖誕節前開業。NICOLAS 的特許經營網絡現已覆蓋8個特許經營國家和2個法國海外領地（英國、黎巴嫩、留尼旺島、模里西斯、馬達加斯加、蓋亞那、馬丁尼克和摩洛哥）。

因此，期望透過完全瞭解其服務地區的貿易商企業家合作，以複製其特許經營模式，從而針對另一種客戶群體，在國際市場提供類似於法國的服務模式。

臺灣店的營業時間：

週日至週四下午1點至晚上9點 週五及週六下午2點至晚上10點半。 西班牙馬貝爾店的開業時間：

（中央社記者劉姵呈台北30日電）受到中國經濟轉型和 下行風險增加影響，金管會今天表示，統計至去年11月 底止，國銀對中國曝險額降至新台幣1.71兆元，較2018 年底減少620億元，占淨值比也逐季降低。

金融監督管理委員會今天統計，銀行、證券期貨及 保險三業合計對中國曝險額為1.99兆元。

銀行業方面，至2019年11月底，國銀對陸曝險額為 1.71兆元，與2018年年底相比，國銀對陸授信大減531 億元，投資減少51億元，資金拆存也減少71億元，扣除 風險移轉後，合計國銀去年前11月總曝險較2018年底減 少620億元。

金管會統計，2019年國銀對陸曝險占淨值比是「按 季遞減」，去年第1季為51.2%，第2季降至49.9%，第3 季為48.7%，第4季到11月底止為48%，創新低紀錄。銀 行局副局長莊琇媛指出，預期納入12月數字後，將會跌 破48%，再探新低點。

銀行業在授信方面減少最多，莊琇媛說，主要是受 到中國經濟轉型和下行，以及中國面臨許多國際情勢問 題，台資銀行在承作授信業務的時候會更保守。

證券期貨業方面，證期局統計，2019年底對陸曝險 額為154.31億元，較2018年年底的111.57億元增加 42.74億元。

保險業方面，保險局統計，2019年底產壽險合計對 陸曝險額約2648億元，占可運用資金0.99%，較2018年 底的2321億元增加327億元。保險局指出，主要是因為 壽險業財務性投資導致市值變動。（編輯：張均懋） 1090130

（中央社記者劉姵呈台北30日電）金管會今天表示，受 到新台幣兌美元匯率升值影響，壽險業去年匯損金額高 達新台幣2912億元；不過受惠去年股債市表現佳，壽險 業投資收益增加，稅前獲利也大賺1546億元，同創新高 。

金融監督管理委員會保險局今天公布去年保險業最 新損益、淨值情況，統計2019年壽險業匯損金額達2912 億元，創下歷年新高紀錄。

其中，壽險業避險損益為負515億元、兌換損益為 負2410億元，合計為負2925億元，另加上動用外匯價格 變動準備金13億元，合計匯損金額為2912億元。

保險局副局長王麗惠表示，2019年12月底新台幣兌 美元匯率相對於2019年11月升值約1.3%，以致匯損持續 擴大，另外，壽險業外匯價格變動準備金累積餘額為 546億元，也較2019年11月減少39億元。

儘管壽險業匯損持續擴大，但稅前獲利也創新高， 保險局統計，至去年底止，壽險業稅前損益有1546億元 ，較2018年大增88.1%，同創歷年新高；王麗惠表示， 主要因為去年股債市表現均佳，壽險業投資利益增加所 致；產險業稅前損益為160億元，較108年增加約8.1%。

淨值方面，至去年底止，整體保險業淨值為2兆650 億元，較前年大增71.1%。

其中，壽險業去年淨值為1兆9297億元，較前年大 增77.2%，王麗惠指出，主要是因美債指標利率較2018 年同期下降，及台股、美股指數均較2018年同期上漲， 金融商品未實現及實現利益增加所致。另產險業去年底 淨值為1353億元，較前年增加約15%。（編輯：張均懋 ）1090130

（中央社台北30日電）2003年SARS疫情中，中國被世界 衛生組織列為疫區，導致GDP成長重挫2個百分點。而今 世衛組織即將討論武漢肺炎疫情是否構成「國際關注公 共衛生緊急事件」，恐為中國的經濟成長投下變數。

世界衛生組織（WHO）秘書長譚德塞（Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus）當地時間29日宣布，召集專家 於30日再次舉行緊急會議，討論源自中國武漢的新型冠 狀病毒肺炎疫情是否構成「國際關注公共衛生緊急事件 」（PHEIC）。

早在武漢肺炎爆發後，陸媒就開始討論疫情對中國 經濟的影響。回顧2003年的急性呼吸道症候群（SARS） 疫情，當時中國被列為疫區後，當年第2季國內生產毛 額（GDP）成長立刻下跌2個百分點，從第一季的11.1% 跌至9.1%。

陸媒三聯生活周刊日前報導，雖然WHO並不希望對 當事國帶來經濟上的傷害，不過事實上，一旦WHO對疫 情做出定性，就會產生一系列連鎖反應，對當事國的經 濟衝擊就在所難免。

對中國而言，如果疫情升級為國際事件，對於經濟 的衝擊力將遠遠大於17年前的SARS疫情。主要是因為中 國經濟在2003年還處於成長期，足以承受衝擊，但是現 在的經濟增速卻在逐年放緩。

此外，這次肺炎疫情爆發的時間剛好發生在春節前 後，春節歷來是消費高峰期，但中國民眾今年春節卻集 體在家隔離，大部分消費活動基本上停止，這將給中國 的服務業帶來重大打擊。

而這些年中國大力發展服務業，目前服務業增加值 對經濟成長的貢獻率為59.4%，比2003年大幅提高了20 個百分點，服務業比重更高，意味著在這次疫情中暴露 的打擊面更大。

除了內部的經濟壓力，還得忍受外部衝擊。包括前 往中國旅遊和工作的人將會驟降，旅遊、航空、飯店、 餐飲等行業將遭重挫；出口可能會面臨更多限制；外國 大規模撤僑，外商投資規模也會出現萎縮等。（編輯： 陳家倫/林克倫）1090130

日期:31日凌晨，美股周四早盤跌幅擴大。道指下跌200點，陶氏化學領跌。市場擔憂疫情發展可能影響全球經濟增長。歐洲議會通過英國脫歐協議。美國四季度GDP增速符合預期。

美東時間周四11：03，道指跌196.59點，或0.68%，報28537.86點；納指跌77.89點，或0.84%，報9197.27點；標普500指數跌25.85點，或0.79%，報3247.55點。

航空與旅遊板塊普遍走低。博彩業板塊也大多下滑。道指成分股陶氏化學下跌3.8%。作為全球經濟增長風向標的卡特彼勒公司（CAT）股價下跌0.6%。

Facebook公佈的季度業績也增大了華爾街面臨的壓力。

據中國官方周四證實，迄今為止，新型冠狀病毒感染的肺炎確診病例已超過7800人，死亡人數升至170人。在中國境外，歐美日本等地也已經出現確診病例。

分析師稱，病毒的傳播並沒有加速，但是隨著企業採取停工等措施以減少疾病傳播的機會，市場越來越擔心未來的企業盈利和經濟增長前景。

美聯儲周三維持聯邦基金利率在1.50%-1.75%不變，符合市場預期。同時上調超額準備金利率（IOER）5個基點至1.60%，以保證聯邦基金利率接近當前政策目標利率區間的中點。

美聯儲主席鮑威爾表示，美國經濟前景依然樂觀，相信美聯儲的貨幣政策將很好地支撐美國經濟，有跡象顯示全球經濟增長已經趨穩。

CMC Markets首席市場策略師邁克爾-麥卡錫（Michael McCarthy）表示，美聯儲承認新的風險已經進入市場。但即使通脹率繼續上升，美聯儲也可能繼續降息。較長期的低利率環境對黃金多頭來說是好消息。

長達三年之久的英國脫歐進程已進入尾聲。歐洲議會全體會議投票通過英國「脫歐」協議，使英國脫離歐盟的程序朝最終完結又邁進一步。

當地時間29日晚，歐洲議會全會以 621票讚成、49票否定、13票棄權的投票結果通過英國「脫歐」協議。接下來，歐洲理事會將於30日正式批准該協議，從而完成歐盟批准「脫歐」協議的所有法律程序。按照計劃，英國將於1月31日離開歐盟。

按照既定程序，英國「脫歐」協議在歐洲議會表決通過後，還需歐盟理事會投票批准。根據這份協議，英國將在1月31日正式脫離歐盟，雙方隨即將圍繞未來關係展開談判。

法國總統馬克龍29日表示，英國「脫歐」的日子是「令人悲傷的一天」，但他也警告英國，法國將在未來英國與歐盟相關貿易協議談判中「不會屈服於壓力」。

馬克龍是當天與到訪的希臘總理米佐塔基斯舉行會晤后發表上述言論的。馬克龍表示，英國將在31日離開歐盟，這是令人悲傷的一天，對我們大家來說都意味著「失敗和教訓」。

英國央行周四召開貨幣政策會議后宣布維持利率在0.75%不變，符合市場預期。著是行長馬克-卡尼（Mark Carney）最後一次主持的貨幣政策會議，英國金融市場行為監管局（FCA）前首席執行官安德魯-貝利（Andrew Bailey）將於3月16日接任其職位。

疲弱的國內生產總值（GDP）數據本已導致數名英國央行官員考慮降息，但英國央行稱有跡象表明，英國經濟自去年12月大選以來有所好轉，全球經濟更加穩定，這意味著目前不需要更多刺激措施。

經濟數據面，美國上周申請失業救濟人數下降，顯示就業市場持續走強，不過此前一周的申請人數遠高於最初的估計。

美國勞工部周四公佈，截至1月25日當周初請失業金人數經季節性調整后減少7000人，至21.6萬人。經濟學家此前預計，上周初請失業金人數將增至21.5萬人。前一周的申領人數被修正為比之前報告的多1.2萬人。

初請失業金人數四周移動均值上周下降1750人，至214500人。初請失業金人數四周移動均值被認為是反映就業市場趨勢的更好指標，因其能消除每周波動。

美國經濟去年第四季度增長2.1%，與第三季度持平，符合經濟學家的預期。去年全年國內生產總值（GDP）增速降至三年來最低。

美國商務部周四發佈的初步估計數據顯示，美國全年經濟增速為2.3%，低於2018年的2.9%和2017年的2.4%。在2017年削減公司和個人稅率的稅收法案出台後，2019年的這一增速遠低於白宮的預測。

特朗普政府曾表示，刺激計劃將使美國GDP至少增長3%，但這一目標尚未實現。消費者支出的持續增長幫助推動了今年最後三個月的經濟增長，不過增幅為1.8%，遠低於第三季度的3.2%。不過，個人消費支出為季度增長貢獻了1.2個百分點。美國目前的經濟規模為21.7萬億美元，其中68%來自消費者。

焦點個股

Facebook公佈的季度業績顯示，支出大幅上升，利潤率不斷收窄。

特斯拉公司連續兩個季度實現利潤，交付量創下歷史新高，並承諾今年的產量將超過50萬輛。

得益於強勁的雲計算收入，微軟第二財季的銷售額和利潤均超出華爾街的預期。

可口可樂周四公佈的季度營收高於市場預期，主要受其低糖飲料、茶和咖啡需求的推動。

德國最大商業銀行德意志銀行（德銀）30日發佈的初步財報顯示，受大規模業務重組等因素影響，2019年德銀凈虧損53億歐元。

2019年7月，德銀宣布大規模業務重組計劃，包括大幅縮減投行業務規模、退出股票銷售及交易業務等。此外，德銀計劃到2022年底在全球裁員約1.8萬人。

美國去年第四季度經濟增長2.1%

2020-01-31 00:08:51來源： 新華網

新華社華盛頓1月30日電（記者許緣）美國商務部30日公佈的初次數據顯示，2019年第四季度美國經濟按年率計算增長2.1%。2019年全年美國經濟增長2.3%。

數據顯示，消費依然是美國經濟增長的主要因素，但經濟增速較前兩季度明顯放緩。去年第四季度，占經濟總量約70%的個人消費支出增長1.8%，增幅低於去年第二和第三季度的4.6%和3.2%；反映企業投資狀況的非住宅類固定資產投資下滑1.5%。2019年，非住宅類固定資產投資僅在第一季度實現增長。

美國商務部通常會根據不斷完善的信息對季度經濟增長數據進行三次估算。商務部將於2月27日公佈去年第四季度經濟增長數據首次修正值。

全球多家航空公司紛紛暫停中國大陸航線，歐洲諸多學校暫緩招募中國大陸交換生，南韓餐廳業者也對陸客敬而遠之。

彭博資訊報導，在新型冠狀病毒（又稱「武漢肺炎」）疫情從中國大陸擴散至全球之際，各國政府、企業、教育機構正努力找尋正確的對應之策，其中捍衛公共衛生就是當務之急。不過，如何達成這項目標，同時不使大陸人民背負罵名，將是一大挑戰。

隨著中國大陸武漢肺炎的確診病例超過7,700人、死亡病例達到170例，外界的擔憂持續升高。許多在大陸設有營運據點的跨國企業紛紛要求員工在家上班，航空公司也縮減飛往大陸的航班；幾國已對重災區武漢周圍的城市進行撤僑。

儘管多數確診病例是武漢或周圍城市的人、或者曾與患者接觸過者，但自從武漢肺炎開始擴散，世界各地的亞洲面孔表示，自己的憂慮正與日俱增，某些人甚至明顯表現出更深層的情緒。

以南韓為例，餐廳業者開始在窗戶貼上「中國人不得進入」（no Chinese allowed）的標語。一家歡迎外國遊客的南韓賭場說，不再接受陸客團；逾50萬名南韓民眾已向政府請願，呼籲禁止大陸遊客。

根據微博一段音檔，一名女性陸客造訪日本伊豆半島的伊東市時，遭餐廳服務生對她喊：「中國人！出去！」（Chinese! Out!）。這則貼文還包括一段電訪這家不願具名的餐廳對話紀錄；這段對話紀錄是鳳凰衛視一名記者所分享。

接受訪問的女性餐廳員工表示，餐廳拒絕陸客及東南亞遊客，原因是業主擔憂肺炎疫情，「如果我們的老闆感染肺炎不幸喪生，誰要負責任？」

撇開健康疑慮不談，南韓及日本對肺炎疫情的反應，也反映出兩國長期以來與中國大陸的摩擦，及對中國大陸在亞太地區影響力日益擴大的不滿。這些不滿的情緒遠勝於陸客帶動周遭國家經濟的利多，包括南韓去年11月的觀光客人數年比大增25%至550萬人。

冷漠對待大陸人的跡象不只出現在亞洲。例如法國當地報紙業者Courrier Picard使用「黃色警戒」（Yellow Alert）的標題，報導與新型冠狀病毒相關的頭版頭條新聞，從而引起眾怒。該報紙後來向讀者道歉；這些讀者上推特發文，抨擊這個標題在影射「黃禍」（Yellow Peril），也就是形容19世紀東亞人的排外用語。

位於丹麥的中國大使館也呼籲日德蘭郵報（Jyllands-Posten）道歉，因這家報社日前出刊的漫畫將中國五星旗改為五枚冠狀病毒。但日德蘭郵報拒絕道歉，並表示丹麥擁有言論自由的傳統。

宜蘭縣長林姿妙指示縣府各單位防疫視同作戰，昨晚中央交辦要找出武漢封城前，從武漢搭機回台的失聯者，宜蘭共有9人，警方配合戶政單位火速把全部失聯者找出來，縣衛生局特別感謝各單位配合。

武漢肺炎疫情封城後，24日起不得有人從武漢出來，中央針對24日以後中國大陸來台者都會特別註記，這方面的列管追蹤較無問題。由於宜蘭29日出現武漢封城前返台一對夫妻，在百貨公司吃飯到處趴趴走，還說封城前從武漢出來，當事人沒有戴口罩及自主管理，嚇壞一堆人。

警方與衛生局馬上找人，要求自主管理，當天晚上中央民政司也傳來十三名類似在武漢封城前到宜蘭的失聯者，要求找出人，警方與民政處馬上啟動機制，找出四人在外縣市，九人在縣內，全數找到人。

〔記者李容萍／桃園報導〕寒流入夜繼續發威，中央氣象局針對今日前100名平地低溫（此處平地指海拔高度小於等於200公尺）資料最新觀測，30日晚上10點50分，桃園市大溪區永福測站、即永福國小的測站測得3.9度低溫，再創今年平地低溫紀錄，提醒民眾出門要注意保暖。

對此，有大溪居民晚上在臉書PO文詢問，「這是指我正在住的大溪嗎？」立即引起網友感同身受，紛紛留言直喊「真冷」、「超冷」，還有人說「難怪有南部鄉親特別打探…大溪真的有這麼冷嗎？」

另外，同樣是桃園市的楊梅區金龍里茶改場測站則是測得5.3度，佔今日平地低溫暫排第7名。

氣象局表示，受寒流影響，30日至2月1日各地氣溫明顯偏低，夜晚至清晨有10度以下氣溫發生的機率。30日晚至31日上午局部地區有6度以下氣溫（橙色燈號）發生的機率，提醒民眾加強保暖，使用瓦斯熱水器及電暖器具應注意室內通風及用電安全；預防低溫導致之呼吸道及心血管疾病、避免長時間逗留在寒冷環境，確保兒童之頭、頸、手和腳部溫暖，關懷老人、街友及弱勢族群避寒措施。

此外，冬季為流感好發季節，請注意手部衛生與咳嗽禮節，落實生病在家休息；農作物及水產養殖業注意寒害。

title: 台南刑事小隊長大風吹 市警局：還有下一波

台南市警局年後首波調動26位小隊長，並表示未來將會對偵查佐與偵查隊副隊長做調整。（資料照，記者王捷攝）

2020-01-30 23:37:18

〔記者王捷／台南報導〕同單位耕耘6年的115位刑事人員，5年來只有6人因案記功，台南市警局因此在年前提出「8年計畫」，30日宣布調動26位同單位服務滿8年的資深小隊長，其中市警五分局共有4位小隊長輪調，是全台南最多，市警局強調，將有下波調動，是針對偵查佐與偵查副隊長。

有刑事警官認為，刑事人員可貴處能明查暗訪地方關係，加上臉書與IG流行，減輕刑事人員深入人際關係的負擔，但部分深耕地方的刑事人員，沒有反應在績效上。年前提出計畫後，有小隊長抱怨，認為自己已是「士官長」階級，不需要升官，因此功獎會給小隊員，以功獎數評斷並不公平。

但刑大後續調查，滿8年的小隊長，小隊整體的功獎數也不高，因此才會先調整小隊長，突破自辦案件低落的瓶頸。

刑大認為，目前各分局的刑事小隊士氣很低，反應速度跟不上網路社團，常在案發後網路社群已PO出影片、地方角頭已PO文嗆聲，仍未掌握狀況，沒有表現出深耕地方的實力，不曉得是知情不報，或是了解不深。而且自辦案件數太低，連派出所送來的案件也未確實發展，所以才會做出調動的決定，重新培養刑事人員的敏銳度。

市警局強調，這次26位資深小隊長調動前，已做了一波偵查隊長的調動，有部分小隊長的評價很高、績效也卓越，市警局與刑大都曉得，但考慮績效與公平性才做出全面調動，近期將會再規劃一波調動，是針對資深偵查副隊長以及偵查佐，為了維護台南未來的治安，這是必要之痛。

〔記者陳鳳麗／南投報導〕寒流來襲凌晨氣溫極低，草屯鎮卻有輪椅老人縮在街角，草屯派出所巡邏員警發現，從其乘坐輪椅印有某養護中心名稱，推測他在該中心安養，經奔走聯絡到中心人員到街頭接回負氣出走的老人，這位輪椅老人原本不肯回去，員警們苦口婆心勸導後，該老人才結束數小時的寒夜出走行程，讓員警們鬆了一口氣。

這位由縣府安排住在南投縣草屯鎮某家安養中心的66歲老人，是在30日凌晨近1點，被民眾發現在草屯鎮博愛路和仁愛街口，不願理人也不肯接受幫忙，該民眾看到員警下來簽巡邏箱，趕緊告知此事，請員警協助。

帶隊巡邏的草屯派出所所長劉泰宏，與員警蔡宜軒、李晉安，詢問這位輪椅老人家住何處，如何聯絡家人，他均拒答，只肯透露自己的姓名和年紀。

劉泰宏從其輪椅上印的某安養中心名字，判斷該老人應是在這家安養中心的老人家，於是趕往2、3公里外的安養中心，向安養中心求證後證實該老人是中心的住民，但卻不知這位住民不見了。

安養中心後來派出一位男性工作人員開車到仁愛街口，要接回這位輪椅老人，惟老人家一見工作人員即生氣，怒指工作人員明知道他在門外抽菸，故意把門上鎖上讓他無法進入。而工作人員則澄清，他根本不知有人在門外。

固執的輪椅老人說什麼也不肯回去安養中心，3位員警只好繼續開導他，最後終於說服老人家回中心，結束輪椅老人數小時的寒夜流浪之旅。

輔仁大學當家中鋒曾祥鈞為這次中華男籃亞洲盃資格賽大名單唯一大專球員，高中為乙組球員的他表示，這是一趟不可思議的旅程，以前從來沒想過會進入國家隊，希望能夠拚給教練們看，擠進12人名單。

2017年還是大一生的曾祥鈞，就破格被帶進中華培訓隊，經過3年UBA以及2年的瓊斯盃中華白的洗禮，今年入選中華隊亞洲盃資格賽第一階段19人培訓名單。相較於上次的入選，曾祥鈞表示，3年前被告知只是一起集訓，這次則是有機會拚進12人正式名單，對於他的籃球生涯是很大的肯定，有機會就要拚拚看。

「能夠跟職業球員們一起訓練非常難得，也做好對抗、碰撞的準備，」曾祥鈞在30日中華隊開訓時說道，「可能剛過年完吧，身體還沒有很進入狀態，必須趕緊找回感覺。」

高中時就讀乙組的穀保家商，現在卻是中華隊的成員，曾祥鈞表示，這是一趟不可思議的旅程，「以前都是在電視上看別人打球，沒想到大學後我也在電視上出現，而且現在還有機會代表國家隊出征國際賽。」

記者杜奕君／新北報導

NBA退役超級球星「黑曼巴」布萊恩(Kobe Bryant)日前因直升機墜毀意外不幸喪生，消息一出震撼世界籃壇。30日開訓的中華男籃，陣中也有多人都是Kobe的死忠球迷，于煥亞、黃泓瀚就表示，「聽聞消息當下真的不敢置信！」而老將射手呂政儒則是在自己的Kobe球鞋上寫字，向偶像致上最高敬意。

為備戰此次亞洲盃資格賽，中華男籃在30日展開首日集訓，不過不少球員談到布萊恩意外離世，仍是難掩低落心情。

九太本土一哥于煥亞就說，「從小我就是Kobe的球迷，他也是我打球的最大原因。直到現在不時想到他已經離開，心裡就有空空的感覺，Kobe帶給我的影響真的太多了，單場81分太不可思議，希望他和他的女兒在天堂過得很好。」

▲闊別兩年重返中華隊，于煥亞對於Kobe意外逝世仍感心痛。（圖／記者潘泓鈺攝）

此次也進入中華隊培訓的台啤前鋒黃泓瀚則表示，「從小我就是死忠湖人迷，Kobe就代表著洛杉磯，無論是凌晨4點去練球，或是2008年領軍奪冠，還有在尼克MSG主場獨拿61分的比賽，我當天還特別看了兩遍。」

黃泓瀚說，「當天我是在睡覺時被女友叫醒，告訴我Kobe出了狀況，當下立刻上網查了很多資料，才知道事情是真的。我希望自己學習他的態度，永遠充滿鬥志，也當個競爭者。」

至於本次入選資歷最久的「男模射手」呂政儒，則將自己的限量Kobe 4代球鞋，寫上「R.I.P. Kobe #8 #24」字樣，用以緬懷自己的場上偶像。

股期雙市昨（30）日重挫回檔，指數齊步失守季線。分析師表示，現階段期現貨逆價差擴增，外資淨多單大減1.3萬口、滑落至1.8萬口，展望盤勢，在疫情未獲有效控制之前，台指期仍有修正風險。

昨天台股紅盤日跳空開低下跌2.7%後，持續震盪下行，盤面上金電傳齊跌，其中又以鴻海（2317）、國巨亮燈跌停，終場加權指數跌5.7%至11,421點；期貨表現上，因權值龍頭台積電下跌5%，鴻海更跌停鎖死，而金融、傳產亦明顯修正，終場台指期大跌741點，以11,370點作收，成交口數24.8萬口。

價差方面，台指期逆價差擴至51.74點，電子期逆價差擴至2.4點，金融期逆價差擴至4.66點。

永豐期貨表示，就籌碼面分析，現貨部分，三大法人賣超263億元；台指期淨部位方面，三大法人淨空單增加1萬7,800口，使留倉部位轉為淨空單6,491口，其中，外資多單減碼且空單加碼，淨多單減少1萬3,550口至1萬8,239口。至於十大交易人中的特定法人，全月的台指期淨空單則是增加1萬1,923口，使留倉部位轉為淨空單4,534口。

永豐期貨指出，雖然說疾病帶來的行情往往只是一時，但回歸技術面，昨天日K一舉摜破1月8日頸線以及季線支撐，多頭架構已被扭轉偏空，目前須留意最接近的11,400點整數關卡以及半年線支撐，在外資還是持續偏空應對以及支撐未明顯浮現前，不建議過早摸底進場。

群益期貨表示，外資期現貨明顯做空，自營商選擇權中性格局，周選偏空態勢，整體籌碼面偏空。技術面上，昨天台股出現爆量長黑，在季線由支撐轉做壓力下，目前台股逢高可偏空操作，短線以震盪偏空看待。

期貨分析師認為，整體而言，台指期昨天以長黑K棒摜破季線，均線亦呈現死亡交叉；展望盤勢發展，由於中國延後開工恐造成產業鏈混亂，電子族群將首當其衝，在疫情未獲有效控制之前，台指期仍有修正風險。

針對特殊傳染性肺炎(武漢肺炎)疫情持續擴大，彰化縣榮民服務處長楊雨榮今(30)日召集所有職員工及社區服務組長，辦理「武漢疫情防護研討會」，會中要求所有進出辦公處所人員，一律需要量測體溫並配戴口罩。

楊雨榮在會中更要求與會人員，要隨時掌握中央流行疫情指揮中心最新消息，與彰化縣衛生局和入出境移民署保持密切聯繫，如有狀況要立即回報，防止防疫破口產生。

為因應武漢肺炎情勢，保護轄區內榮民(眷)及服務人員健康，楊雨榮表示，所有一線服務人員務必做好相關防護工作，並全面清查出入中國大陸地區榮民(眷)有無發燒或咳嗽情形，加強宣導14天自主健康管理及居家隔離措施。

由於彰化縣境內已出現武漢肺炎首例本土確診病例，正面臨疫情嚴峻挑戰，楊雨榮強調，除配戴口罩之外，也請大家勤洗手，沒有必要不要進出公共場所，以保護自身及家人安全。

（中央社記者龍柏安台北30日電）第4局浪費6比2領先 優勢，加上決勝局賽末點沒能把握，台灣桌球一哥林昀 儒與搭檔廖振珽，在德國桌球公開賽男雙首輪，以2比3 不敵南韓組合張禹珍與趙大成，憾負出局。

2020德國桌球公開賽是世界桌球巡迴賽白金系列首 站，也是積分等級最高的公開賽，林昀儒稍早和女單一 姐鄭怡靜聯手，在混雙以3比1擊敗塞爾維亞組合，順利 挺進8強，可惜男雙沒能持續挺進，首輪提前止步。

今天男雙首輪，林昀儒與「山豬」廖振珽開局先以 12比10拿下，次局則以6比11棄守，雙方打成1比1平。

第3局林昀儒與廖振珽的「林廖配」，以11比6再下 一城，也取得2比1「聽牌」優勢，第4局開賽最多握有6 比2大幅領先，可惜沒能一舉拿下，讓對手拉出一波5比 1攻勢扳平。

雙方打成7比7平後，接下來雙方3度打平，可惜在 10比10決勝期，「林廖配」連丟2分，以10比12棄守， 戰線也被拖進決勝局。

關鍵第5局，雙方互有領先，在9比9平手時，林昀 儒靠著一記對角反手擰拉，取得10比9超前，也握有一 個賽末點，無奈接下來他強攻出台，錯失晉級門票，最 終以11比13憾負對手，也丟掉晉級門票。

至於莊智淵與陳建安的組合，今天則在12比14、3 比11連丟2局劣勢下，接連以11比9、12比10追平戰局， 無奈決勝局仍以7比11不敵比利時組合藍拜特（Florent Lambiet）與艾雷葛洛（Martin Allegro）首輪出局。

兩組男雙首輪栽跟頭，所幸陳思羽與鄭先知聯手的 女雙組合，首輪以3比2險勝香港的杜凱琹與朱成竹，順 利挺進8強，下一輪對手將是日本名將石川佳純與平野 美宇。（編輯：葉俐緯）1090130

武漢肺炎疫情蔓延，造成人心惶惶，台南學甲區格安德公司30日開放500個名額，每人限購2盒口罩，大批民眾清晨頂著刺骨寒風去排隊，口罩一下子被掃光；將軍區康那香觀光工廠上午休館盤點，民眾撲空竟怒而報警，最後廠方贈送每人2片免費口罩才平息紛爭。

有網友指出，學甲區格安德公司一大早出現大批搶購口罩的民眾，長長人龍相當驚人，據悉，該工廠平日並未散賣、零售口罩，為因應武漢肺炎疫情需要，特別服務有需求的民眾。30日上午開放500個名額，每人限購2盒，由於搶購人數眾多，很多人都買不到，該公司表示，會於臉書公布下次販售時間。

▲台南市政府呼籲，南市整體口罩產能一天超過85萬片，數量足夠，請民眾不必搶購、囤貨。（圖／台南市政府）

網友對搶買口罩現象表示，「待在家沒事，沒事待在家～」、「防疫形同作戰，加油」「雞排沒有吸引力，口罩才是搶手貨」、「出去排隊才是交叉感染吧」、「其實今天去超商全家、7-11都有貨了，還不少，根本不用搶」、「7-11就有了…排什麼意思的，跟衛生紙之亂一樣隨便就能製造恐慌」；網友多認為不需去排隊搶口罩，因超商都買到。

康那香觀光工廠30日上午盤點，下午1點開門營運，但因盤點沒有販售口罩，引起民眾不滿，與工作人員爆發口角，竟有民眾憤而報警，指控公司訊息不實。學甲分局表示，民眾報案指稱，康那香觀光工廠公告30日下午1點營業，許多民眾前往搶購卻撲空，相當氣憤，認為訊息不實，經董事長戴榮吉出面安撫，並免費送排隊民眾每人1包2片裝口罩化解糾紛。

台南市政府表示，台南市目前有5家工廠生產口罩，康那香公司在年初三即提早開工，恒大30日也開工生產，後續加開生產線，24小時不停機，每日產能達40萬片，台南市整體產能一天即超過85萬片，口罩數量一定足夠，請民眾不必恐慌，毋須過度恐慌及大量囤貨。

台南市衛生局提醒民眾，防止武漢肺炎疫情蔓延，平時做好個人衛生習慣，如搭電梯按樓層丶開門把或握扶手後，手不隨意觸摸眼鼻口，這些地方容易有細菌或病毒滋生；要養成常用肥皂洗手的習慣，出門在外最好隨身準備「乾洗手」，以降低病毒侵襲的可能。

一般健康的民眾無須隨時配戴口罩，平時養成體溫監控、使用肥皂勤洗手、少出入人多密閉場所等好習慣，中央流行疫情指揮中心提醒，以下時機建議戴上口罩，有發燒、咳嗽、流鼻涕等呼吸道症狀時；進出醫療院所時；出入通風不良、擁擠密閉的空間時；慢性疾病患者。

澎湖縣長賴峰偉30日主持縣務會議聚焦防疫，指示衛生局與疾管署協調在澎湖機場、馬公港裝設紅外線體溫測量儀，在裝設前，針對入境旅客以額溫器測體溫、酒精消毒手部。倘若，中央拒絕裝設紅外線體溫測量儀，必要時由縣府自行購置儀器，提高防疫標準。

賴峰偉表示，感謝衛生局等單位在春節期間犧牲假期，密切監督疫情，春節後，他要求衛生局、農漁局、民政處、社會處等單位每日上午8時30分在縣府召開防疫會議，匯報每日疫情，即時防疫。

賴峰偉強調，防疫必須料敵從寬、禦敵從嚴，杜絕疫情最好的方式就是在第一線發覺加以管控，他指示衛生局向中央協調在機場、港口裝設紅外線體溫測量儀，雖然武漢肺炎患者不見得都會發燒，但多一道防範，就是多一道保障，如果中央不願支援澎湖紅外線體溫測量儀，將由縣府動用預備金購買，加強保障縣民健康。

賴峰偉說，海上兩岸人民接觸頻繁，澎湖漁民與大陸漁民交易時有所聞，為避免疫情從海上進入，他指示農漁局與海巡隊密切配合，加強驅離大陸漁船，並在漁民上岸港口設置額溫器，嚴防防疫漏洞。

農漁局長陳晶卉表示，1月22日應變中心成立後，農漁局立即與岸巡、海八建立通報窗口，同時要求海巡加強驅離大陸漁船，也對扣留回岸上的大陸漁民實施體溫檢測。此外，澎湖外籍漁工有近3,000人，將透過漁會及船主等管道宣導正確防疫與通報機制。

另外，澎湖有6百餘名大陸配偶，賴峰偉指示社會處調查近期有無大陸旅遊史，並要求民政處落實追蹤有湖北省旅遊史的民眾，以及嚴格督導鄉市公所、村里長、幹事落實追蹤機制。居家檢疫期間，民眾若不配合，將依法強制安置，如果失聯，警察局將立即調閱通聯紀錄追查人員去向。

再者，因應即將開學，教育處長蘇啟昌表示，教育處及學校皆成立防疫應變小組，教育處擬訂「疫情防護及健康管理措施」，要求學校確實掌握具有大陸旅遊史學生。另外，寒假課業輔導將暫停上課，並指派督學加強巡視各校防疫情形。

旅遊處長陳美齡表示，過年期已間跟旅遊業建立即時通報群組，也建立旅宿業通報機制，讓旅遊業做好管控，希望第一線旅遊業者做好防疫工作，同時將依疫情發展，評估是否調整重大活動舉辦日期。

＊台灣好新聞提醒您：武漢肺炎防疫不恐慌！

肥皂勤洗手，公共場所戴口罩，減少聚會不握手，避免接觸禽畜類動物，不生食肉品！

國外入境若身體不適主動通報機場及港口檢疫人員，出現疑似症狀撥打防疫專線，戴口罩儘速就醫，並告知醫師旅遊史。

這部電影的運鏡讓紛雜的民族色彩與城市蕭條面貌對話，無論定色還是配樂，都是澎湃的流動卻處處暗示著牆的存在。因此那窄巷與寂寥小區裡，在那少見霓虹，且充滿宵禁氣氛的保守空氣裡，城市另一端是年輕人求出口的跳舞與夜浪裡，那些買醉與交錯著人們品頭論足的眼神，讓青春因經濟所面臨的窒悶不言而喻。

導演雷凡阿金以細膩畫面表達了喬治亞處於新舊時代的尷尬與沉重歷史，上層青年外移，生活在社會底層的年輕人沒有太多機會，偌大的舞蹈教室讓他們有了晉升希望，以及相反於現實的輕盈，因此你看到他們的舞蹈既有著熱血的感動，又有著理想太奢侈的絕望。他們愈跳得精采，觀眾愈能感受到那屬於一時限定的垂死堅持。

這部電影的身體語言是豐富且別具含意的，年輕人呼嘯而過的笑聲與無解的沉默一樣多，在無人處的熱吻、在無人處的別離與心碎，都藉身體姿態傳達，凸顯了主角雷凡吉巴奇亞尼的卓越演技。

幾幕清淡卻深刻地交代了他們的選擇不多，當服務生時的被羞辱；對於是否能進入國家舞團是唯一翻身的契機；選擇馬鈴薯的猶豫；哥哥被視為攀上高攀的婚姻。這部電影的貧窮與「寄生上流」的諷諭不同，它是非常日常的，甚至深入骨髓的，逆來就順受的力道，如黃昏的壓境。

因此這部電影不只在講同志愛的被禁止，更在講無論經濟與情感，甚至社會地位上的全面被壓抑，但相形之下情感是如此洶湧。導演用非常節制的手法宣告的情之不可擋。包括主角男孩不肯撕去的牆角「神隱少女」海報，是否能逃得出去那迷惘之鄉，找回自己。

最後一幕更是經典，男孩在「舞姿太陰柔」否定聲中，仍以自由的姿態完成歌頌生命之舞。整個故事以苦澀煉出甘美，才是生命滋味。

 受到武漢肺炎疫情升溫影響，宏碁（2353）昨（30）日取消內部開工團拜，集團創辦人施振榮特別開啟「視訊拜年」的新模式，並透露宏碁視訊平台新產品預計三個月後上市，搶攻視訊會議的商用市場。施振榮昨天與夫人葉紫華、安碁資訊董事長施宣輝一起透過網路視訊向大家拜年。往年大年初六宏碁集團主管都會到施振榮家中新春團拜，今年為了避免疫情擴散的效應，取消家中團拜的慣例。

施振榮指出，宏碁近期已與多人視訊會議軟體Zoom合作，開發辦公室視訊平台新產品，今年以這套新視訊平台產品與大家進行別開生面的「視訊拜年」。

施振榮表示，視訊會議將是未來大趨勢，加上疫情威脅下，視訊會議能提供大家一個方便且安全的溝通新平台。

施宣輝指出，即便市面上視訊工具並不少，但硬體不容易設置、操作，都要有工程人員在旁邊待命，宏碁優勢在於透過AI邊緣運算裝置aiSage提供親民的價格，消費者未來不僅可線上購買，買回去後就能自行設置使用，預料將是視訊會議產業上的一大突破。

title: 王室大戰！威廉凱特無所不比

content_text:
據《每日郵報》（DailyMail）報導，凱特向來對運動很拿手，只要和威廉打起網球，就會激發她強烈的好勝心。事實上，由於她在全英頂尖的倫敦賀林漢俱樂部（Hurlingham Club）學網球，威廉想要打贏老婆，可說是機會渺茫，而威廉也承認這點。

不過，除了網球之外，還有很多可比的。令人印象最深刻的，就是2011年時，兩人在加拿大比起划龍舟，當時威廉告訴新婚妻子凱特，「運動沒有所謂的騎士精神」。儘管凱特告訴其他隊員，她「真的很想打敗老公」，可是最後並未如願。

此外，無論在板球場上或廚房裡，他們的競爭似乎沒有任何領域限制。就在去年耶誕節前，夫妻倆上「貝莉皇家耶誕」（A Berry Royal Christmas）美食特別節目時，也忍不住暗自較勁。不過，主持人貝莉（Mary Berry）拒絕評斷高下，以充滿外交辭令的評語稱讚，他們做得一樣好，這才讓兩人滿意地休兵。

記者周康玉／台北報導

金鼠年開紅盤就給投資人一個大震撼，受到中國武漢肺炎疫情影響，台股鼠年第一個一開盤交易日就開低走低，收盤收在11421.74點，大跌696.97點，跌幅5.75%，創下單日最大跌點。市場法人表示，肺炎影響短期市場信心及總體經濟需求，參考過往經驗跌勢可能為期一個月，非經濟面因素造成下跌往往伴隨V型反轉，後續密切觀察買進加碼時點。

法人建議，不妨以台股基金來介入布局，一來透過專業經理人的篩選來降低選股的不確定性，二來也有助分散投資風險，掌握台股不同產業的投資契機。市場普遍預期疫情仍在高峰期，武漢1月23日封城，按照7~14天潛伏期，2/8元宵節前後是確診數高峰期，短期上市場風險偏好趨於謹慎。

群益投信表示，相較2003年SARS期間，台股跌幅10%左右，SARS疫情期間台股高低點落差約20%，惟低點4044點後漲至7135點；台股30日已單日大跌5.75%，市場恐慌情緒已釋放不少，加上本次全球防疫措施相對嚴拒謹慎，相關影響可望降低。

群益投信表示，台股加權指數短期下跌難免，2000年來有10次單日下跌超過5.5%，不過之後期間平均表現都為正報酬；中長期來看，FED在內的全球央行仍力行寬鬆政策，整體市場資金充沛、景氣仍為溫和復甦；台灣受惠政策獎勵海外資金與台商回流、轉單效應，不論實質景氣面、企業資本投入、與金融市場投資氛圍較為正面，2020年台股仍可望挑戰新高。

群益馬拉松基金經理人沈萬鈞指出，日後需觀盤重點包括中國肺炎疫情需嚴密觀察是否引起全球病例數爆發，影響總體經濟展望。2月中旬及下旬美國及中國經濟數據，預期可能受肺炎小幅影響而下修。此外，2月下旬台股上市櫃公司陸續發表年報以及舉辦法說會，關注各產業展望。

沈萬鈞表示，2月底巴塞隆納全球MWC展，科技產品及新應用仍具話題性。產業部分，半導體先進製程、5G建置及新技術應用展望仍佳且資金寬鬆持續，中長期仍看多，2020年上游半導體包括CPU/GPU/server皆有新平台推出，晶圓代工在高階製程與封測廠在高階封測皆持續大幅擴充資本支出，相關設備廠商可望迎來數年大多頭行情。整體而言，仍看好半導體、5G、IC設計等族群。

title: 虹揚-KY今年業績優於去年　揚州廠年前備貨增、延後復工營運不受影響

記者周康玉／台北報導

二極體廠虹揚-KY（6573）於今（30）日舉辦媒體餐敘，釋出對今年展望。虹揚-KY董事長方丁玉表示，歷經去年谷底，今年除了持續穩定供應太陽能二極體，將積極布局新產品，包括TVS保護元件、節能元件及車用整流元件、金氧半場效電晶體（MOSFET）整流產品等，2020年業績將優於去年。

受到武漢肺炎疫情影響，虹揚-KY在揚州子公司同步隨當地政府延後至2月10日開工；因揚州新廠過年前已增加半個月存貨，且有10%產能為外包，因此復工不會受到影響，但後續出貨還要看交通運輸狀況。

方丁玉表示，這兩年受限於大陸太陽能展業政策調整與中美貿易戰的全球性經濟因素影響，二極體產業均受到不小衝擊，不過去年第四季開始，整體經濟環境逐漸回溫，虹揚-KY的營收表現也明顯提升。

方丁玉表示，太陽能二極體向來為虹揚-KY的產品強項之一，去年第四季營收逐漸回穩，2020年將持續維持穩定供貨；另外則是積極佈局新產品領域，包括推出TVS保護元件、節能元件及車用整流元件、金氧半場效電晶體(MOSFET)整流產品等，希望更擴大產品供應面，在2020年帶動營運表現，穩步向上。

發言人程御峰表示，虹揚-KY自去（2019）年第4季明顯感受到產業有回溫的趨勢，連帶在營收方面的表現也有正面提升。展望2020年，虹揚-KY將會抱持謹慎樂觀的態度因應外在環境的變化，持續在營運面上努力耕耘。」

自2019年第4季開始，虹揚-KY在新產品的研發與推動上已經有初步成效，包括推出自主研發的太陽能旁路模組、超微型DFN0603（0201）封裝的新型ESD二極體系列、TO-251封裝的金氧半場效電晶體（MOSFET）與業界獨特少有的快速恢復橋式整流器系列產品等，並取得兩岸二極體封裝結構新型專利，有益於產品製程與庫存產品的彈性調配，可更有效降低成本。展望2020年，虹揚-KY可望持續推出新整流元件產品，產業佈局更趨完整。

China, India impose ‘bleak domineering vision’: Amnesty

Demonstrators shout slogans as they attend a protest against a new citizenship law in Kolkata, India, yesterday.Photo: Reuters
The Asia-Pacific region has been dominated by repression, but also resistance, as the two largest nations on Earth sought to impose a “bleak domineering vision” for the region, Amnesty International’s annual human rights review for last year says.

The review, released yesterday, paints a bleak picture for minorities across the region, with Uighurs in China interned in “re-education camps,” and a siege imposed across Kashmir, India’s only Muslim-majority state.

However, Amnesty said that while governments became increasingly repressive, they were countered by emerging public resistance; in Hong Kong, where protests against a proposed extradition law metamorphosed into broader demands around respect for democracy, human rights, free expression and peaceful assembly; in India, where millions turned out to resist new laws that discriminate against Muslims taking citizenship; and in West Papua, where people demonstrated against racist and discriminatory treatment, and reaffirmed demands for independence from Indonesia.

The region is increasingly governed by strongman leaders; in Sri Lanka, former military chief Gotabaya Rajapaksa was elected president; in the Philippines, President Rodrigo Duterte’s “war on drugs” claimed hundreds more lives through extrajudicial killings; and Prime Minister Hun Sen consolidated his grip on power in Cambodia as political violence worsened.

“Across Southeast Asia, repressive governments entrenched themselves further, silenced their opponents, muzzled the media, and shrank civic space to the point where, in many countries, even participation in a peaceful protest can trigger arrest,” the report said. “In South Asia, governments appeared anxious to keep up, innovating new ways to perpetuate old patterns of repression — especially through the introduction of draconian laws that punish dissent online.”

Amnesty said that repression is often legitimized by governments demonizing critics as “as pawns of ‘foreign forces,’ who are at best ‘naive’ and at worst ‘treasonous.’”

While governments across the Asia-Pacific region sought to suppress dissent, protests and civil resistance have had an effect.

In Taiwan, the fight for equality for LGBT people resulted in same-sex marriage becoming legal in March last year.

In Sri Lanka, lawyers and activists successfully prevented the resumption of executions.

Pakistan passed laws to tackle climate change and air pollution in the interests of its citizens, while a massive, months-long campaign of protests on the streets of Hong Kong resulted in the withdrawal of a proposed extradition bill with China, which had become emblematic of widespread dissatisfaction among residents of the territory.

“The wheels of justice slowly began to turn for the Rohingya, as the International Criminal Court [ICC] authorized an investigation into crimes committed by the Myanmar military in 2017,” Amnesty wrote. “This followed a decision by Gambia to take Myanmar to the International Court of Justice for the crime of genocide.”

“There are also hopes that the ICC will revisit its decision to not authorize an investigation into war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by all sides in Afghanistan, after capitulating to pressure from the US administration” of President Donald Trump, the report said.

title: Virus Fears: DBS Bank revises GDP forecast upward

content_text:
DBS Bank Ltd yesterday raised its forecast for GDP growth in Taiwan this year from 2 percent to 2.3 percent, after factoring in last quarter’s stronger-than-expected growth momentum and negative effects of the new coronavirus outbreak, the Singapore-based bank said.

Before the outbreak, the nation’s economy was on a steady recovery path, with GDP expanding in the fourth quarter by 3.4 percent annually and showing full-year growth of 2.7 percent — the fastest among newly industrialized Asian economies, DBS economist Ma Tieying (馬鐵英) said in a report.

However, the outbreak in China poses a fresh risk to Taiwan’s near-term growth outlook, Ma said.

“Consumption and tourism in Taiwan will be directly affected by the outbreak, as people are cutting down on outdoor activities, hitting international and domestic travel, while financial market jitters will also take a toll,” she said.

The direct impact on the nation’s economy might not be huge, given that the second half of last year saw a considerable decline in inbound Chinese visitors after China in July stopped issuing permits for independent travel to Taiwan amid deteriorating cross-strait relations, the report said.

Chinese visitors to Taiwan only accounted for 10 percent of total foreign arrivals in November, from a peak of 30 percent recorded years ago, it added.

Since the outbreak, tours to China were halted, which might explain why Taiwan has so far seen fewer confirmed coronavirus cases than neighboring countries such as Thailand, Singapore and Hong Kong, the report said.

However, the ongoing health crisis would affect Taiwan indirectly through a possible slowdown of the Chinese economy and temporary disruptions to China-centered supply chains, Ma added.

“These indirect effects must be watched closely, in our view,” she said.

Last month, Taiwanese exports to China finally returned to positive territory, thanks to the stabilization of the Chinese economy and a rise in China’s 5G demand, Ma said, citing that China remains Taiwan’s largest export market, accounting for 40 percent of total exports.

“Another slowdown in the Chinese economy will threaten the near-term outlook for Taiwan’s export recovery,” Ma said.

China’s plans to extend the Lunar New Year holiday, shut down factories, and suspend production and transport activity would inevitably affect Taiwanese manufacturers with operations there, she said.

Taiwan witnessed a contraction of 1.2 percent in the second quarter of 2003 due to SARS, which triggered huge declines in private consumption and exports, Ma added.

people: 習近平 蔡英文 韓國瑜

content_text:
The Jan. 11 elections captivated the nation. The decisive results were in no small part influenced by the wide participation and high voter turnout among young Taiwanese, which allowed President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) to roundly defeat Kaohsiung Mayor Han Kuo-yu (韓國瑜), the Chinese Nationalist Party’s (KMT) candidate, and secure a second term and a majority in the legislature for the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP).

Here are some suggestions for Tsai and her party on how best to manage their second term:

First, Tsai must establish a common vision for Taiwan’s future — a shared destiny that is accepted by all Taiwanese.

Chinese President Xi Jinping (習近平) delivered a speech on Jan. 2 last year, in which he explicitly stated that accepting the so-called “1992 consensus” means that Taiwan must also accept a Hong Kong-style “one country, two systems” model of governance.

The statement was a clear rejection of long-standing KMT cross-strait policy, which interprets the “1992 consensus” to mean “one China, each side having its own interpretation of what China means.”

This means that, irrespective of whether Taiwanese identify as belonging to a country called “Taiwan” or the “Republic of China” (ROC), Beijing now views both as forms of Taiwanese independence.

Moreover, despite the wild catastrophism of some Taiwanese politicians, the ROC remains intact, despite 12 years of DPP rule.

Accordingly, Tsai’s overriding objective over the next four years will be to unite the pro-Taiwan and the ROC political factions.

With the People’s Republic of China (PRC) hell-bent on annexing Taiwan and the KMT having long ago surrendered, it is time that Taiwanese united.

Second, Tsai must ensure that Taiwan takes an international outlook and adheres to the highest universal values and standards.

A new international situation has taken shape as the US has redefined China as a “strategic competitor,” and the US-China trade dispute is just one aspect of this new situation. After Washington delineated the Indo-Pacific as a key strategic area of influence, democratic Taiwan’s role in the region became indispensable.

Taiwan’s geostrategic value lies not just in its position within the so-called “first island chain,” but also its democratic form of government, liberal values and human rights, which make Taiwan a natural ally of the US, Europe, Japan, Australia and other countries.

Taiwan also serves as a role model for burgeoning democracies and developing nations around the world.

Tsai must turn up the volume and find ways to more clearly communicate the universal values that underpin Taiwan’s democracy to the rest of the world.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ “Taiwan Can Help” program to promote the nation’s full participation in international organizations has encouraged young Taiwanese to participate in civil society, while showing the wider world that Taiwan is an indispensable global partner.

Third, Tsai’s administration must build a society for all generations.

The younger generation has already become an important force for the protection of Taiwan. The election saw a historic willingness to participate in public affairs, and protect democracy and freedom. It marked the coming of age of a new generation of altruistic Taiwanese, concerned for the greater good of society.

This generation was formed by the 2014 Sunflower movement, and culminated in the 2016 presidential and legislative elections.

Juergen Klopp on Wednesday insisted that Liverpool are not motivated by making history after the runaway leaders took another step toward the Premier League title with a 2-0 win at West Ham United.

Klopp’s side have turned the title race into a procession and they moved 19 points clear at the top with their 23rd victory from 24 league games this season.

Mohamed Salah opened the scoring with a first-half penalty at the London Stadium and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain wrapped up Liverpool’s 15th successive league win after the interval.

Second-placed Manchester City are now so far behind Liverpool that the question is not if, but when the Reds clinch their first English league title since 1990.

The Reds have won 31 of their past 32 league fixtures, only dropping points in a 1-1 draw at Manchester United in October last year.

With 14 games left this season, Liverpool’s incredible run has given historic overtones to their impending title coronation.

However, Klopp was only concerned about getting Liverpool over the finish line, with any landmarks set on the way merely the icing on the cake.

“In a season you have to dig in, you don’t breathe pretty much, then after 38 games you come out of the water and see how you did,” Klopp said. “I’m not too much concerned about records. We had a record at [Borussia] Dortmund and Bayern [Munich] beat it the next season.”

“I don’t want to be boring. We just don’t feel like that,” he added.

The European and world champions are now 41 games unbeaten in the league — just eight away from the 49-match English top-flight record set by Arsenal’s “Invincibles” in 2003-2004.

Matching that Arsenal team’s achievement in going an entire league season without defeat is within Liverpool’s reach, as is Manchester City’s Premier League record of 100 points.

Liverpool’s latest success on a chilly night in east London will be just a footnote when the full story of their likely title triumph is written, but they still managed to record another small piece of history.

They have now beaten all 19 of the other teams in the league at least once this season — the first time the club have achieved that feat in the top flight.

Told of the milestone, Klopp maintained that his only motivation was to get the best from his team in each match, but he did stop to briefly salute the achievement.

“This game, it was not a brilliant performance. The difficulty tonight was to get rhythm, keep rhythm and stay concentrated. Their biggest chances came because we gave them away,” Klopp said. “I trust these boys 100 percent with my kids, but they still made these ridiculous mistakes. It’s completely normal that you don’t always perform at the highest level.

“It is not a motivational problem for us. We are Liverpool, we have a proper history and everyone knows what we have to do to reach that,” he said. “If it was easy to get this number of points, other teams would have done it. It’s just really incredibly difficult.”

“If we reach any records, we will take that when it happens,” he added.

West Ham manager David Moyes admitted Liverpool deserve their place among the Premier League’s all-time great teams.

However, as a former boss of Liverpool’s two greatest rivals, he unsurprisingly stopped short of anointing them the best English soccer has ever seen.

“They are as good as there has been at this moment in time. It’s very difficult when you have been the manager of Everton and Manchester United to say that,” Moyes said.

New vehicle sales in Taiwan are this year to rise 3.44 percent annually, boosted by improving private consumption and government tax incentives for the replacement of older vehicles, Hotai Motor Co (和泰汽車) said yesterday.

Easing trade tensions between the US and China would also help stimulate demand, the local sales agent for Toyota and Lexus brand vehicles said.

New vehicle sales are forecast to grow to about 450,000 units this year, compared with 439,000 last year, Hotai president Justin Su (蘇純興) said in a statement.

That would represent a second straight year of growth, following annual growth of 1 percent last year.

“I cannot find any reason to be pessimistic about the auto market,” Su said.

In particular, this year is the last in which the government is to offer tax incentives for people replacing older vehicles, he said.

The tax reduction amounts to NT$50,000 per vehicle.

In light of improving macroeconomic factors, Hotai said that it aims to grow its sedan sales by about 3 percent to 146,000 this year, compared with 141,891 vehicles last year.

The growth would outpace the overall expansion of the local auto market and propel Hotai’s market share to 32.5 percent, compared with 32.3 percent last year, it said.

Toyota’s revamped Altis sedan and RAV4 sports utility vehicle models last year helped boost Hotai’s vehicle sales, as the models were best-sellers among domestically made and imported vehicles, Hotai said.

On the commercial vehicle front, Hotai aims to sell 8,000 vehicles this year, challenging the top position of China Motor Corp (中華汽車) for the first time in its history, it said.

China Motor sells vehicles under the Mitsubishi brand and its own CMC brand.

Virus Fears: Authorities crack down on quarantine breaches, fake news

The Ministry of Justice on Wednesday issued directives for the judiciary and law enforcement agencies to step up efforts against people breaching quarantine orders, circulating misinformation and other illegal activities in Taiwan related to an outbreak of a novel coronavirus.

As a result, authorities in central Taiwan yesterday imposed a fine of NT$100,000 against a man surnamed Liu (劉) for defying an order to be quarantined at home following his return from Wuhan, China, the epicenter of the 2019-nCoV virus, on a flight carrying a woman who was later confirmed infected with the disease.

Changhua Public Health Bureau Director Yeh Yen-po (葉彥伯) said that authorities on Wednesday tracked down Liu, the fifth day since his return on Saturday last week with Taiwan’s fourth confirmed 2019-nCoV case.

Liu had been placed on a monitoring list and was required to keep in contact with health authorities, with orders to remain at home and refrain from going to public places, but he went missing and had not answered his phone for five days, Yeh said.

Yeh said that he had requested that the police locate Liu, whose registered residence is in Changhua’s Lugang Township (鹿港).

In addition to the fine, Yeh said that police and health officials were questioning Liu about his whereabouts since his return to Taiwan, as they suspected that he had not remained at home and instead visited public places in other cities.

Meanwhile, Minister of Justice Tsai Ching-hsiang (蔡清祥) ordered that an investigation into the circulation of misinformation regarding the coronavirus outbreak be expedited and that related incidents be given priority to stem the disease’s spread in Taiwan.

The Ministry of Justice Investigation Bureau and prosecutors would initiate criminal investigations against those who deliberately attempt to spread the disease, defy orders to remain at home and other illegal activities, Tsai said.

The bureau’s Fake News Prevention and Control Center has bolstered its efforts to fact-check media reports and curb the online circulation of misinformation related to the outbreak, which would result in criminal investigations, the ministry said in a statement.

“The center will monitor incidents of misinformation and false reports, find their original sources for follow-up investigations and immediately issue clarifications for the public,” it said.

All public prosecutors’ offices would strive to expedite investigations into cases concerning illegal activities related to the disease and provide updates to the public “to show the government’s strong focus on combating the coronavirus outbreak and its determination to punish those who contravene orders from health officials to contain its spread, serving as a warning to offenders and assurance to society,” it said.

The ministry also called on people who have recently visited Wuhan and other Chinese cities to remain at home in self-quarantine for the prescribed period, follow the orders of health officials, wear masks at all times and refrain from going to public places.

Virus Fears: Ministry proposes measures to help travel operators

TOURISM CHALLENGES:Measures include compensation for canceled tours to China, facilitating loans, interest payment subsidies, and reduced sales and income taxes
The Ministry of Transportation and Communications has proposed several measures to lower the impact of a novel coronavirus outbreak first discovered in Wuhan, China, on the nation’s tourism industry, including tax breaks and facilitating bank loans for travel operators.

With the virus spreading fast in China and overseas, Taiwan has limited the entry of Chinese tourists and banned travel agencies from organizing tour groups to China.

As a government subsidy for fall and winter tours will soon expire, travel operators are concerned that these factors would present a challenge to the nation’s travel industry in the next few months.

Lion Travel Service Co, one of the nation’s largest travel agencies, yesterday estimated losses of up to NT$250 million (US$8.26 million) after canceling tours to China departing between Saturday last week and Feb. 29.

Local media reports said that Minister of Transportation and Communications Lin Chia-lung (林佳龍) has been exchanging views with several travel industry leaders on how the government could assist them in coping with these challenges and yesterday met with representatives from the Travel Agent Association of Taiwan to discuss possible bailout plans.

A source familiar with the matter said that the proposed bailouts would cover losses sustained by travel agents and hoteliers.

For one, travel agents arranging tours for Chinese tourists would receive partial compensation if they have to send their guests home early or suspend tours to China in compliance with the government’s policy, the source said.

Another proposal is to have the Tourism Bureau subsidize part of the interest payment for loans secured by travel operators to support their operations, the source said.

The bureau would also assist hoteliers in securing bank loans, raising their credit limit and lowering processing fees, the source said.

It would discuss with state-owned banks and other financial institutions a plan to set up an ad hoc funding program for hoteliers so that they can quickly obtain funding, the source added.

Hoteliers would be given a break on property taxes, with the losses in tax revenue sustained by local governments being covered by the central government, the source said.

The government is also considering whether to reduce the sales tax and income tax for hoteliers — similar to a tax scheme that the government adopted for hoteliers affected by the 2002-2003 SARS outbreak, the source said.

For airlines offering cross-strait flights, the government plans to talk to airlines about ticket funds or allowing passengers to change their tickets to a later date and lowering processing fees, the source said, adding that the ministry would help integrate resources from different departments to jointly promote Taiwan as a travel destination.

The bureau announced that the ban on group tours to China remains effective until the end of next month as the outbreak has yet to show signs of improvement.

title: Staring at cellphones for long periods harms eyes

Binge watching programs on mobile devices could lead to blurred vision and other eye problems, an ophthalmologist has warned.

Liang Chung-ling (梁中玲), director of Kaohsiung-based Bright Eyes Clinic, said she treated a 45-year-old woman with acute myopia who watched programs on a cellphone for extended periods.

The woman, who sought treatment after experiencing blurred vision while riding her scooter, reported watching dramas on her cellphone for several hours every day after work, and even longer on weekends and holidays, Liang said.

She developed cataracts and her visual acuity fell to 0.5 on the decimal chart in her left eye and 0.1 in her right eye, and she required surgery to prevent permanent eye damage from retinal detachment, Liang said.

Asia University Hospital Eye Center deputy director Lin Chun-ju (林純如) described treating a 10-year-old boy who watched an excessive amount of TV during long holidays and often read comic books with very small print.

He complained of vision problems, she said, adding that he had developed acute myopia in his right eye and moderate myopia in his left eye.

Visits to the eye doctor generally increase by about 20 to 30 percent after the Lunar New Year holiday each year, and ophthalmologists treat about 10 percent more patients for macular degeneration annually at that time, she said.

Children’s retinas are more sensitive to the blue light from mobile device screens, and the light sensitive cells in their retinas can be damaged by long-term use, possibly decreasing visual acuity, Liang said, adding that parents should limit screen time to 30-minute periods with a minimum five-minute break between uses.

People should also hold mobile devices far from their eyes and lower the screen’s brightness by 30 percent, she said.

Mobile devices should never be viewed in the dark as this causes the pupils to dilate, which lets a greater amount of harmful blue light into the retina, she added.

Sunlight increases the eyes’ secretion of dopamine and inhibits deformation of the eyes from stretching, Lin said, adding that people should spend more time outdoors and looking at distant scenery.

Foods high in lutein, zinc, and vitamins C and E can also help stave off vision problems and should be part of one’s diet, she said.

Virus Fears: China Steel bullish despite pretax income falling 60%

China Steel Corp (CSC, 中鋼) yesterday posted a 60 percent year-on-year decline in pretax income to NT$12.8 billion (US$422.76 million) for last year, while providing a cautiously optimistic outlook for business this year.

The company, which has been facing significant setbacks on the international steel market since a trade conflict between the US and China started to escalate last year, blamed the decline on flailing market demand and rising raw material prices.

Overall revenue last year contracted 8.59 percent on an annual basis to NT$366.24 billion.

Despite the disappointing results, the company took in greater profits than industry peers across Asia, except for South Korean steelmaker POSCO, CSC chairman Wong Chao-tung (翁朝棟) said at a traditional ceremony to launch business operations for the new year.

With steel prices rising in the US, Japan and South Korea, Wong expressed the hope that the steel industry would rebound this year.

Pointing to the rapid spread of a coronavirus in China, which will undoubtedly disrupt the country’s supply of steel as Beijing extends its Lunar New Year holiday, Wong said that the demand for basic manufacturing would be stimulated and, in turn, boost orders for steelmakers.

The epidemic would not strongly affect its operations, the company said on Wednesday.

CSC subsidiaries InfoChamp Systems Corp (中冠資訊) and China Ecotek Corp (中宇環保), which have offices in Wuhan and Xiamen, China, have reportedly asked their Taiwanese employees to delay their return to China in an attempt to avoid possible infection.

The US on Friday last week announced its decision to levy an additional 25 percent tariff on steel products and a 10 percent tariff on aluminum products, effective on Saturday next week.

Despite market concerns that the increased tariffs would negatively affect the company’s exports, CSC executives said that previous US duties of 25 percent on steel products — under section 232 of the US’ Trade Expansion Act of 1962 — already did their worst, the Chinese-language Apple Daily reported yesterday.

Under the 25 percent tariff, Taiwanese steel exports to the US last year fell 28.42 percent year-on-year to US$850 million, US customs data showed.

Given that the company sells about 68 percent of its production locally, it is expecting orders from China-based Taiwanese companies returning to invest in Taiwan, CSC executive vice president and spokesman Hwang Chien-chih (黃建智) said.

The company expects orders for 200,000 tonnes of steel plates and H-beams, Hwang added.

Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase & Co’s application to take a Chinese biotechnology company public was rejected by the Hong Kong stock exchange.

The announcement about Akeso Inc’s (康方生物科技) listing, made late on Wednesday, puts the Wall Street banks on a list that bankers have dubbed “name and shame,” because it discloses the financial institutions and companies involved in any failed application.

The IPO filing application was returned on Dec. 5, the Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing Ltd (HKEX) said in a statement, without providing a reason.

An October 2013 policy stipulates that incomplete IPO applications are to be returned by HKEX. There is no tangible punishment for banks, but the company has to wait at least eight weeks to resubmit an IPO application.

Spokespeople at Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan and HKEX all declined to comment.

Since 2014, the territory’s stock exchange has rejected 21 applications to both its main board and its growth enterprise market.

Past rejections mostly consisted of local and Chinese banks, such as Guotai Junan Capital Ltd (國泰君安融資) and BOCOM International (Asia) Ltd (交銀國際證券). JPMorgan also made the list for a deal in 2016.

Even if a bank is put on the list multiple times, there are few signs that it undermines its ability to sponsor deals in the world’s busiest IPO market. For example, China Everbright Capital Ltd (中國光大融資) has also made the list twice.

They assimilated the culture, learned the language, paid the taxes and served as public representatives in their adopted home nations, but from March, hundreds of Britons serving as municipal councilors in cities and towns in France will no longer be eligible to hold office, or vote.

As the UK departs the EU after a near half-century alliance, small-town French mayors, especially, are dreading the pending “colossal loss” of a key political resource.

“It is hard to find motivated people in a small town,” said Perriers-en-Beauficel Mayor Lydie Brionne of a Normandy town where two of the 11 municipal councilors are Britons.

Just like other citizens of the EU, Britons have since 2001 been entitled to stand in local elections in France, except for the position of mayor, which is reserved for French nationals.

They lose the right after Brexit becomes official at midnight, though they will be allowed to serve out their mandates until fresh local elections in March.

No longer EU citizens, Britons in France also lose the right to vote in local elections.

Brionne said that Perriers-en-Beauficel — population 216 — would struggle to find replacements when its British duo are forced to retire.

One of them is Patrick Head, 64, originally from Wiltshire, England, and the 28th Briton to buy a house in the sleepy French commune.

In 2014 — 10 years after moving there — he received by far the most votes in a local election, but despite this massive show of support, he will be “fired” shortly, a “very disappointed” Head said.

“We will miss Patrick because he helps us a lot,” added Brionne, explaining he is a key link between the local authority and the 50-odd Britons living in its corner of Normandy.

“For the last 20 years, many Brits have moved here, they have repopulated the town and given it dynamism,” she added.

After Brexit, “I fear that they will be obliged to go back,” Brionne said.

Far from an isolated case, similar fears exist in other towns where Britons have put down roots.

Of France’s 35,048 municipal councils, 712 have British representatives — 757 councilors in total.

They make up almost a third of the nearly 2,500 foreign representatives among France’s nearly half a million local councilors.

In Poupas, a town of 85 inhabitants in the south of France, three of the 11 councilors are from across the English Channel. Two have obtained French nationality, which means they remain eligible to serve.

“It is a colossal loss,” Poupas Mayor Pascal Guerin said of the Brexit-induced upheaval.

British residents of Poupas “are perfectly integrated into the town life, even more than the rest of the population,” he said. “For them, Brexit is a total aberration, they are taking it very badly.”

“One councilor even cried when Boris Johnson was elected” British prime minister on a pro-Brexit ticket, Guerin said.

Allison Mackie, a 63-year-old from Scotland, is one of two British representatives on the council of Bellegarde-du-Razes, a town of 240 people in southern France.

She has lived there since 2011 and is heartbroken that she would no longer be able to serve her community as an elected official.

“We built our house here, we pay taxes here, we consume here, but we are scrapped from the voters’ list,” she said.

Jouac Mayor Virginie Windridge, the 39-year-old head of a town of 180 residents in central France — is married to a British man.

Virus Fears: Local chipmakers’ China output healthy

‘OPERATING NORMALLY’:A Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co spokeswoman said that the manufacturer’s fabs in Shanghai and Nanjing are ‘running around the clock’
The nation’s major contract chipmakers, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC, 台積電) and United Microelectronics Co (UMC, 聯電), yesterday said their Chinese factories are operating normally, as the fabs are in areas less affected by the coronavirus outbreak.

The chipmakers said they have activated the necessary measures to keep the coronavirus from spreading, including avoiding business trips in China, adhering to stringent hygiene practices and taking extra staff temperature checks.

“Our [Chinese] fabs are operating normally. They are running around the clock,” TSMC deputy spokesperson Nina Kao (高孟華) said by telephone.

TSMC operates one 8-inch fab in Shanghai and one 12-inch fab in Nanjing.

Employees at the Nanjing fab are to return to work on Monday next week and Shanghai fab employees on Feb. 10, Kao said.

UMC said that production line workers at its Chinese fabs operated by Hejian Technology (Suzhou) Co (和艦科技) and United Semiconductor (Xiamen) Co (聯芯科技) have not been affected by the outbreak.

However, the company’s financial and accounting employees would not be returning to work until Feb. 10, in compliance with local regulations, UMC said.

The company did not halt production at its Chinese fabs during the Lunar New Year holiday as most semiconductor companies did, a UMC public relations official said by telephone.

Some local governments — including Shanghai and Chongqing, as well as Jiangsu and Guangdong provinces — have asked companies to extend the Lunar New Year holiday by 10 days to Feb. 9 in an attempt to prevent the virus from spreading.

With confirmed cases of people infected by the coronavirus increasing globally, Yuanta Securities Investment Consulting Co (元大投顧) said investors should note that companies might “take a more conservative approach in offering earnings guidance.”

Chip packaging and testing service supplier ASE Technology Holding Co (ASE, 日月光投控) has mobilized an emergency task force to allocate capacity at its Chinese fabs, it said yesterday, adding that measures have been adopted to curb the spread of the coronavirus and that employees are restricted from traveling in China, unless it is a necessity.

The company prefers online video conferencing instead of face-to-face meetings, ASE said, adding that employees with a temperature higher than 38°C are barred from entering its factories.

LCD panelmakers AU Optronics Corp (AUO, 友達光電) and Innolux Corp (群創) said that they have set up special task forces to cope with the epidemic and that employees are forbidden to travel to areas affected by the outbreak.

AUO, which operates assembly lines and manufacturing sites in Suzhou and Kunshan in Jiangsu Province and Xiamen in Fujian Province, said that employees from affected areas are to be quarantined in separate office space.

Innolux declined to comment on factory operations in China.

“All factories are currently operating smoothly,” the Miaoli-based company said.

Innolux operates plants in Shanghai, Ningbo, Foshan and Nanjing.

The TAIEX yesterday shed 696.97 points, or 5.75 percent, to close at 11,421.74 on panic selling as worries over the coronavirus outbreak deepened, while Taiwanese firms with operations in China extended the Lunar New Year holiday until next month.

Yesterday’s retreat was the largest setback in a single session. It surpassed the previous record single-day drop of 660.72 points on Oct. 11, 2018, Taiwan Stock Exchange data showed.

That compared with a 2.62 percent decline on Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index, a 1.71 percent fall on South Korea’s KOSPI and a 1.72 percent dip on Japan’s Nikkei 225.

The local benchmark’s steeper drop came as no surprise, as the local market played catch-up with its regional peers, Hua Nan Securities Investment Management Co (華南投顧) chairman David Chu (儲祥生) said.

“Compared with other Asian countries, Taiwan might be more negatively affected by the outbreak, as we are geographically near China and many Taiwanese companies have operations there,” Chu told the Taipei Times by telephone.

Turnover in the Taiwan Stock Exchange swelled to NT$275.415 billion (US$9.1 billion), a 76 percent increase on the average turnover of NT$155.6 billion in the past 30 days.

Foreign institutional investors cut their net holdings by NT$17.79 billion, while mutual funds and proprietary traders slashed their net positions by NT$2.8 billion and NT$1.65 billion respectively.

The New Taiwan dollar fell NT$0.271, or 0.9 percent, to NT$30.277 in Taipei trading yesterday.

“Local financial markets took a harder hit than their regional peers due to Taiwan’s economic links with China,” First Securities Investment Trust Co (第一金投信) said in a client note.

Shares of Hon Hai Precision Industry Co (鴻海精密), the world’s leading electronics manufacturer and an iPhone assembler, plunged by 9.97 percent to NT$83.1.

The company has about 13,500 employees in Wuhan, the epicenter of the virus outbreak, and it announced that it would delay its production activities in China until Feb. 10.

Other Apple Inc suppliers were also affected, with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (台積電) shares falling 4.95 percent to NT$316.5, Largan Precision Co (大立光) shares sinking 5.33 percent to NT$4,710 and Pegatron Corp (和碩) shares diving 7.65 percent to NT$62.8.

“The declines reflected worries that the spread of the coronavirus might be a drag on the sales of iPhones, despite Apple on Wednesday reporting better-than-expected earnings for its latest quarter,” Chu said.

Besides the technology sector, industries such as aviation and hospitality would also suffer a negative impact from the virus outbreak, Chu said, citing that shares in EVA Airways Corp (長榮航空) and China Airlines Ltd (中華航空) plummeted by 9.93 percent and 9.91 percent respectively.

However, a few companies benefited from the virus outbreak, mainly suppliers of masks.

Nan Liu Enterprise Co (南六) and KNH Enterprise Co (康那香) shares rose 9.9 percent and 9.85 percent respectively.

Shares of TaiGen Biopharmaceuticals Holdings Ltd (太景), a supplier of antibiotics, and vaccine maker Adimmune Corp (國光生技) advanced more than 9 percent on investors’ expectations of new business opportunities, Chu said.

Any rebound of the TAIEX would depend on whether the spread of the virus could be controlled, along with the performance of US equity markets, Hua Nan Securities said.

Su Beng museum to open in 2021 in Taiwan, Tokyo

TWO LOCATIONS:The planned museum would have sites in New Taipei City and Tokyo, and the aim is to borrow some items from national museums for display

A memorial museum for Taiwanese independence activist Su Beng (史明) is expected to open in June next year, organizers said.

The museum would have two locations — one at the site of Su’s former residence in New Taipei City’s Sinjhuang District (新莊), and one in Tokyo’s Ikebukuro commercial and entertainment district, where Su worked in his youth to earn money for independence activities, the organizers said.

The Ikebukuro branch would be on the fourth floor of the building that housed a noodle shop where Su once worked, which now houses a restaurant called Shinchimmi that was owned by Su, they said.

Both branches would have book exhibits, audio recordings and videos of Su’s life and activities, and other items, they said.

There is an initial fundraising goal of NT$4.2 million (US$138,719), which, when met, would see the Su Beng Education Foundation begin organizing items for the exhibits, they said.

The foundation would cooperate with national museums and university libraries to collect and organize items, they said.

As items would need to be cataloged, fumigated and stored in temperature-controlled environments by national museums, the Sinjhuang and Ikebukuro branches would only borrow items at the discretion of those museums and return them after a display period, the organizers said.

As Su wrote under aliases for many decades to avoid arrest by the then-Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) government, cataloging written materials would take at least three years, the organizers said.

The Sinjhuang site needs renovations due to termite damage, they said.

“When the Ikebukuro branch is opened, visitors will be able to take in history while eating lor mee (鹵麵) noodles, and imagine Su’s experience during his 40 years in Japan’s underground movement,” said student Na Su-phok (藍士博), one of the organizers.

Su considered selling the restaurant in 2015 to invest more into the independence movement in Taiwan, Na said.

At the time, Jiho Chang (張之豪), who is now a Keelung city councilor for the Democratic Progressive Party, and others launched a campaign to save the restaurant, as they considered it an important historical site, Na said.

“Now that Su is gone, we hope we can hold on to Shinchimmi, which is why this fundraising effort is so important,” he said.

Su died on Sept. 20 last year at the age of 100.

Inside the strange world of fecal transplants

Researchers are investigating whether injecting patients with other people’s excrement is an answer to dementia, anorexia and obesity
The man and woman are wearing blue hospital gowns and clear face shields. Doctors James Sones and Indu Srinivasan are in a room in the Division of Digestive Diseases at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson. They are about to create something that has spread through medicine like, well, a shitstorm.

Sones takes a brown gloopy material and spoons it into what looks like a regular kitchen blender. The camera zooms in to a label on it: fecal blender. The brown gloopy stuff is, depending on your profession and level of politeness, fecal matter, stool, excrement or poo. It has been donated by a generous volunteer and it is almost certainly going to transform the life of the person who is going to receive it.

Once blended and mixed with saline, the brown stuff is poured into large syringes and infused into a willing patient by colonoscopy (nasogastric tubes and enemas are other delivery methods).

In the UK, this treatment is available for patients suffering from repeated infections of Clostridium difficile or C diff.

These bacteria can live harmlessly inside us, but in patients who are given strong antibiotics, C diff can survive, overwhelm a gut wiped of its microbiome, then secrete a toxin that causes severe pain, awful diarrhea and vomiting. In the worst cases, it can be fatal.

Even when vanquished by antibiotics, it can return except if the patient receives an infusion of poo, a procedure known as a fecal microbiota transplant (FMT).

Human waste is a misnomer. What we excrete contains nutrients and bacteria, and it can be a useful fertilizer or fuel. That the bacteria it contains can also cure ailing guts was known by ancient Chinese writers, who wrote of “yellow soup” (assumed to have been liquidized excrement), which was used to treat food poisoning and bad diarrhea.

A US surgeon, Ben Eiseman, resurrected the procedure in 1958, but then the antibiotic vancomycin was discovered and became the standard treatment for C diff.

Yet when antibiotics began failing, enterprising doctors began to try FMT to restore a damaged microbiome. The success rates were astounding: About 90 percent of patients with recurrent C diff were cured.

In 2013, Dutch researchers halted a randomized control trial — the gold standard of medical trials — because FMT was so much more effective than vancomycin.

By 2014, the procedure was accepted enough that the UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence issued guidelines allowing fecal transplants to be used in clinical practice, but only for C diff.

Even so, says Tariq Iqbal of the Microbiome Treatment Centre (MTC) at the University of Birmingham, “it was very poorly taken up. Only about 30 hospitals [in the UK] had ever done a fecal transplant. Only four had done 10 or more.”

Partly, there was a supply problem: Where was the poo to come from? In the early years of FMT, patients were often infused with fecal material donated by a close relative or friend.

Slowly, though, the concept of a stool donor emerged. Now, MTC is one of only two licensed stool banks in the UK, and in its first year of operation sent out 150 samples, at a cost of ￡650 (US$845) for each 50ml.

Donors are recruited by poster and word of mouth.

Iqbal says they need to drop off their stools for 10 days in a row before 11am — so they have to be regular in more ways than one. Although MTC is next to Queen Elizabeth Hospital, healthcare workers are excluded because they are exposed to too many bugs.

At the top of President Tsai Ing-wen’s (蔡英文) agenda the morning after her Jan. 11 election victory were meetings with American Institute in Taiwan (AIT) Director Brent Christensen and Japan-Taiwan Exchange Association Chairman Ohashi Mitsuo at the Presidential Office. That afternoon, she met with Japanese House of Representatives member Nobuo Kishi, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s younger brother, at the presidential residence.

By doing so, she made it clear that she would continue to meet with representatives of countries with similar values to Taiwan, and make a particular effort to bolster ties with the US and Japan to establish Taiwan as an indispensable partner in the Indo-Pacific strategy.

Unquestionably, the most important element of relations with the US and Japan is the signing of a free-trade agreement (FTA) with the US and joining the Japan-led Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP).

An FTA would not just be a leading indicator of joining the CPTPP, but a precondition for it. Only by the US taking the lead would Japan, Australia, Canada and other US allies feel that they have the necessary support to deal with pressure from Beijing and be willing to sign bilateral FTAs with Taiwan.

Late last year, more than one-third of all members of the US House of Representatives signed a letter calling for FTA talks with Taiwan, while a Washington Post opinion piece prior to Taiwan’s elections suggested that a Taiwan-US partnership could start with FTA talks.

The time is right, and as US-China trade tensions continue, the strategic value of Taiwan’s position at the center of the first island chain is increasing.

Judging from the decision by US President Donald Trump’s administration to increase steel import tariffs on the EU, Canada and Mexico, and his demands that the North American Free Trade Agreement be renegotiated as soon as he took office, Taiwan must not pin any unrealistic hopes on the US, naively thinking that because the geostrategic scales are tipping in Taiwan’s favor there would be no cost attached to an FTA with the US.

A Taiwan-US deal would not be a unilateral giving of benefits, but rather a mutual agreement between partners built on shared values, as well as mutual benefits and interests.

Having won the election with a record number of votes, Tsai and her administration control the government, and thus also shoulder complete responsibility and accountability. She cannot shy away from the necessity of grasping this opportunity to remove barriers — namely, the import bans on US pork and on food products from five Japanese prefectures imposed after the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant disaster — to an FTA with the US and membership in the CPTPP.

An agreement on food security issues regarding imports could be reached based on scientific tests and rational discussion, but as politicians continue to block each other and obtain benefits for their own parties in a vicious circle, the issue has become a partisan nightmare.

Ractopamine, which has been allowed in Japan and South Korea for many years, has been thoroughly vilified, and the 2018 referendum on “nuclear food” was a schoolbook example of populism overriding expertise.

Allowing the import of US pork would have an impact on Taiwan’s agricultural sector; the two-year binding period of the referendum on food product imports from the five Japanese prefectures is to expire late this year.

Johnny Chiang registers for KMT election

THE RACE BEGINS:Former Taipei County commissioner Chou Hsi-wei said he would not seek the chairperson position, while Hau Lung-bin is expected to apply today

Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) Legislator Johnny Chiang (江啟臣) yesterday obtained an application form for the party’s chairperson by-election, signaling the start of a face-off between the party’s old guard and younger generation.

Registration for the by-election is set for Monday and Tuesday next week, while the election is to be held on March 7.

Following the party’s defeats in the Jan. 11 presidential and legislative elections, KMT members have been debating how to reform the party.

Representing the KMT’s younger faction, Chiang was the first to take the application and pay the required NT$2 million (US$66,057) fee, while former KMT vice chairman Hau Lung-bin (郝龍斌), seen as Chiang’s main opponent, is expected to pick up a form today.

If the KMT wants to become the ruling party again, it should adopt reforms and respond quickly to shifts in public opinion, Chiang told a news conference in Taipei.

The party must also adjust its outdated mindset and figure out how to attract more support from young people, he added.

Under his leadership, there would be room in party affairs for the younger generation and his team would recruit more young talent with popular support, he said.

Asked whether Hau has a heart “young” enough for the KMT, Chiang said that although he respects Hau’s different stances and policies, he would only discuss his own goals during the campaign.

Former Taipei County commissioner Chou Hsi-wei (周錫瑋) said on Facebook that he would not seek the chairperson position, and voiced his support for Chiang, saying that those who have already worked as chairman or vice chairman should give younger people an opportunity.

Asked for comment, Hau said that he respects all kinds of individual opinions.

Although including visionary people who are willing to shoulder duties for the party is a good thing, the KMT’s transformation requires cross-generational cooperation, and he is willing to take on the role of coordinator, Hau said.

Having served as the KMT’s vice chairman and Taipei mayor, Hau said that he understands the party and has good execution, and he would never use the post as a springboard for other positions, because the chairman’s responsibility is to complement other party members, giving them enough space to bring their skills into full play.

title: Heavy rain hinders Zimbabwe push to build winning lead

content_text:
Heavy rain yesterday afternoon frustrated Zimbabwe’s push to build a match-winning position on the fourth day of the second Test against Sri Lanka in Harare.

A downpour mid-afternoon forced the players off the field and tea was taken at the regular time with Zimbabwe on 222-6, an overall lead of 335.

Zimbabwe captain Sean Williams, who made a century in the first innings, was 40 not out when the rain came.

If Zimbabwe can take their lead to 400, they would stand an excellent chance of winning the Test and squaring the two-match series 1-1, although the rain delay means Williams will also have to consider a declaration.

Brendan Taylor had earlier set the tone for the home side when he made his second half-century of the match. The 33-year-old struck a rapid 67 as the hosts added 117 during an extended morning session.

Lasith Embuldeniya was again the pick of the Sri Lanka bowlers, striking in the third over of the day when Regis Chakabva edged to Dhananjaya de Silva at slip having added just a single to his overnight 14.

Virus Fears: US Fed watching for effects of virus

‘CAUTIOUS OPTIMISM’:The US’ Federal Open Market Committee left the country’s benchmark interest rate steady in the target range of 1.5 to 1.75 percent, as expected

The virus outbreak in China has put the US Federal Reserve on alert for possible contagion to the US and global economies, but the central bank on Wednesday held its policy interest rate steady.

Just as the global economy seemed to have stabilized, the new coronavirus poses a new risk to growth in China and elsewhere, US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said.

The SARS-like outbreak in China could undermine other major economies if global supply chains that flow from China are disrupted.

“There will clearly be implications at least in the near term for Chinese output and I would guess for some of their close neighbors,” Powell told reporters following the Fed’s policy meeting.

However, “the situation is really in its early stages and it’s very uncertain about how far it will spread and what the macroeconomic effects will be,” he said. “We are very carefully monitoring the situation.”

There are still grounds for “cautious optimism” about the global outlook,” but “none of this is assured” given continued uncertainties, including the effects of the viral outbreak, Powell said.

The US’ policysetting Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) left the benchmark interest rate steady in the target range of 1.5 to 1.75 percent, as expected, at the end of its two-day meeting.

Policymakers also signaled that they want to see US inflation push a bit higher, to hit the 2 percent Fed target.

After cutting rates three times last year in their effort to buoy the economy amid US President Donald Trump’s multi-front trade dispute, this is the second policy meeting at which the bank has made no move and it seems content to tread water unless there is a “material change” to the outlook.

The statement on Wednesday repeated that policymakers would “continue to monitor the implications of incoming inflation for the economic outlook including global developments and muted inflation pressures.”

In a technical move, the Fed also slightly raised the interest it offers to banks with cash on deposit at the central bank, bumping it up to 1.6 percent from 1.55 percent, reversing the rate cut in September last year.

The FOMC announced that it would continue measures to boost the amount of cash available in the financial system at least through next quarter.

The Fed had to take emergency steps in September after interest rates started to climb amid an apparent shortage of bank reserves, using overnight cash injections known as “repo” operations.

The operations’ aim is to ensure that reserves in the system remain above a floor of US$1.5 trillion, while working on a plan to gradually reduce the Fed’s asset purchases, Powell said.
