第一則：前台南副市長之子涉吸金上億 出境遭攔截
前台南副市長顏純左之子顏大鈞，涉嫌以「政二代」名義吸金高達上億元。他以父親等政界名人為招牌，甚至自稱總統賴清德為其乾爹，讓投資人深信不疑。
受害者指出，顏大鈞一開始會按期發放紅利，但因生活糜爛、沉迷賭博，金流出現問題後便人間蒸發。他於6月11日試圖從高雄出境，卻因早已被限制出境而遭攔截。目前相關單位已展開調查，希望能替受害者討回公道。
Former Tainan Deputy Mayor's Son Accused of Fraud Stopped from Leaving the Country
Yen Ta-Chun, the son of former Tainan Deputy Mayor Yen Chun-Tso, is accused of using his “politician’s child” status to scam investors out of over one billion NT dollars. He used his father’s name and connections with political figures, even claiming President Lai Ching-Te as his godfather, to gain investors’ trust.
Victims said Yen paid dividends at first but later ran into money problems due to his lavish lifestyle and gambling habits. On June 11, he tried to leave the country from Kaohsiung but was stopped because he was already on a travel ban. Authorities are now investigating to help the victims get justice.
第二則：印度航空波音787墜毀 242人中僅1人生還
印度航空AI171班機於6月12日在印度阿默達巴德起飛，卻在30秒後墜毀，造成機上242名乘客與機組人員罹難，僅一位40歲英國籍男子拉梅什奇蹟生還。他因座位靠近緊急出口，跳出出口後，驚險逃過死劫。
這是自從波音787型客機於2011年服役以來的首起重大事故。美國官員表示，他們尚未發現需要停飛波音787的安全數據。目前當局已尋獲黑盒子，將持續調查這起空難的真相。
Air India Boeing 787 Crash: 1 Survivor Out of 242
Air India flight AI171 took off from Ahmedabad, India, on June 12 but crashed just 30 seconds later. All 242 passengers and crew onboard died, except for one survivor, a 40-year-old British man named Ramesh. His seat was near the emergency exit, and he managed to jump out, narrowly escaping death.
This is the first big accident involving the Boeing 787 since it started flying in 2011. U.S. officials said they have not found any safety issues that would require grounding the Boeing 787. The black box has been found, and the authorities are still investigating the crash.
第三則：以色列攻擊伊朗 伊斯蘭革命衛隊總司令喪生
以色列於6月13日展開了名為「奮起雄獅」的軍事行動，攻擊伊朗多處核設施，造成伊斯蘭革命衛隊總司令侯賽因·薩拉米及兩名核科學家喪生。以色列總理納坦雅胡表示，將持續行動至威脅完全消除。
伊朗誓言報復，向以色列發射約百架無人機，以色列已宣布進入緊急狀態。此次襲擊被視為中東地區多年來最大規模的軍事打擊。此消息使原油價格飆升每桶超過3美元，區域緊張升級。
Israel Attacks Iran, Islamic Revolutionary Guard Commander Killed
On June 13, Israel launched a military operation called “Rising Lion,” targeting Iran’s nuclear sites. The attack killed the Revolutionary Guard Commander Hossein Salami and two nuclear scientists. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said the operation will continue until the threat is removed.
Iran vowed to retaliate and sent about 100 drones toward Israel. Israel has declared a state of emergency. This is one of the biggest military strikes in the Middle East in years. The news caused oil prices to rise by over $3 per barrel, increasing tensions in the region.
第四則：會議總是沒人敢開口？領導者的反應是關鍵
許多主管都會面臨到會議中沒人開口的困境，如何讓下屬勇於表達成為重要課題。哥倫比亞大學教授亞當·賈林斯基指出，領導者的反應對下屬是否敢發言有放大效應。
透過稱讚、感謝與認可，能讓團隊成員感到支持，減少發言的壓力。而主動向下屬請教問題，也能有效讓對方感到地位提升，促進意見交流與團隊合作，並產生對團隊的信任感。
Meetings Always Too Quiet? The Leader’s Response Is the Key
Many managers face the challenge of silence during meetings, making it important to encourage employees to speak up. Columbia University professor Adam D. Galinsky explains that a leader’s reaction can strongly influence whether team members feel comfortable sharing their thoughts.
By giving praise, showing gratitude, and offering recognition, leaders can help team members feel supported and reduce the pressure of speaking out. Asking team members for their opinions can also make them feel valued, encouraging discussion, teamwork, and building trust within the group.
第五則：加拿大人棄美轉向亞洲遊 台灣成熱門首選地
近來，由於美國關稅爭議升溫，加拿大人逐漸轉向亞洲旅遊，根據去年加拿大公司FlightHub公布的調查結果，台北市是最受加拿大人歡迎的旅行地。
觀光署國際組組長黃易成也表示，加拿大人遊台旅客總量雖不及美國，但按人口比例來看，加拿大人來台灣觀光的風氣比美國還強大。台灣安全、友善的旅遊環境，以及豐富的自然資源和文化體驗，將持續吸引喜歡親近大自然的加拿大遊客。
Canadians Choose to Travel in Asia Over the U.S., Taiwan Becomes a Top Pick
Recently, because of rising U.S. tariff issues, more Canadians are choosing to travel to Asia. A survey by Canadian company FlightHub last year showed that Taipei is the most popular destination for Canadians.
Huang Yi-Cheng, head of the Tourism Administration’s International Affairs Division, said that while fewer Canadians visit Taiwan compared to Americans, the percentage of Canadians traveling to Taiwan is much higher. Taiwan’s safe and friendly environment, along with its natural beauty and cultural experiences, continues to attract Canadian tourists who love nature.
