第二則：關稅衝擊難免！卓榮泰表示不會犧牲任何產業
行政院副院長鄭麗君「不會有產業被犧牲」的說法，引發民進黨立委林岱樺質疑。對此，行政院長卓榮泰特別澄清，這意指政府將成為產業的強力後盾，並非指關稅新秩序對國內產業毫無影響。
卓榮泰強調，政府正努力將衝擊降到最低，絕不會犧牲任何產業。此外，他也證實內閣改組已於8月24日啟動，目前正依規劃進行，會以最快速度向民眾說明新團隊的組成與未來目標。
Tariff Impact is Inevitable! Premier Cho Stresses No Industry Will Be Sacrificed
Vice Premier Cheng Li-chun’s statement that “no industry will be sacrificed” was questioned by DPP Legislator Lin Tai-hua. In response, Premier Cho Jung-tai clarified this means the government will act as a strong support for industries. He said it does not mean the new tariff order will have zero impact on domestic businesses.
Premier Cho emphasized the government is working to minimize the impact and will not sacrifice any industry. He also confirmed that changes to the Cabinet began on August 24th and are proceeding as planned. He will explain the new team and its goals to the public soon.
第三則：關稅未明買氣急凍 3萬輛進口車塞爆台北港
因關稅政策的不確定性，台灣車市買氣瞬間急凍，導致超過3萬輛進口新車停滯台北港。行政院已證實將與美方談判美規車零關稅，但結果最快要到10月底才可能明朗。
這段空窗期加劇了消費者的觀望心態，業界悲觀預估，8月整體銷售量恐創下今年新低，甚至可能跌破2月的歷史最低紀錄。
Tariff Uncertainty Freezes Market 30,000 Imported Cars Jam Taipei Port
Due to uncertainty over tariff policies , Taiwan’s car market has suddenly frozen. This has caused more than 30,000 new imported cars to be stuck at Taipei Port. The Executive Yuan has confirmed it will negotiate with the U.S. about zero tariffs for American-spec cars. However, the results may not be clear until the end of October at the earliest.
This waiting period has increased the “wait-and-see” attitude among consumers. The industry pessimistically predicts that overall sales in August will hit a new low for this year. Sales could even fall below the all-time record low set in February.
第四則：米其林星數狂飆！台灣餐飲業面臨「成長陷阱」
台灣米其林星級餐廳數在2025年以53家超越新加坡，再創高峰。這份榮耀提升了國際能見度，卻也引發專家擔憂，恐將重演20年前廣設大學的「成長陷阱」。
一旦星級標籤因快速擴張而失去稀缺性，恐將衝擊產業的長期品質。業者應回歸核心競爭力，避免陷入因內耗與品質下降所導致的市場衰退風險。
Michelin Stars Skyrocket! Taiwan's Restaurant Industry Faces a "Growth Trap"
In 2025, Taiwan’s Michelin-starred restaurants reached 53, surpassing Singapore and setting a new record. While this honor boosts international visibility, it also raises expert concerns. They worry it could repeat the “growth trap” of establishing too many universities 20 years ago.
Once the star label loses its scarcity from rapid expansion, it could impact the industry’s long-term quality. Business owners should return to their core competitiveness to avoid the risk of market decline caused by internal struggles and a drop in quality.
