第一則：台積電控羅唯仁洩密 內部破口再受關注
台積電日前正式提告前資深副總羅唯仁，指控他在退休前影印業務資料後前往英特爾任職，並「高度可能」外洩公司機密。事件引發外界質疑台積電的內控管理，因為今年稍早已有工程師外洩二奈米技術的案例。
隨著全球晶片戰升溫，專家認為台灣企業必須強化人才流動管理，因為任何細小破口都可能影響產業競爭力。
TSMC Accuses Former Executive of Leaking Secrets as Internal Risks Draw New Attention
TSMC has officially filed a lawsuit against its former senior vice president, Wei-Jen Lo, accusing him of copying business documents before retirement and then joining Intel, with a “high possibility” of leaking company secrets. The incident has raised doubts about TSMC’s internal controls, especially since an engineer leaked 2-nanometer technology earlier this year.
As the global chip war heats up, experts say that Taiwanese companies must strengthen the management of employee movement, because even a small breach may affect industry competitiveness.
第二則：近7成上班族領不到平均薪 金融業年薪中位數奪冠
主計總處公布去年受僱員工年薪統計，年薪中位數為54.6萬元，創下2013年以來最大漲幅，但仍有68.75%的上班族領不到平均年薪73.2萬元。金融及保險業以110.6萬元居冠，其次是電力及燃氣供應業與資通訊相關產業。
薪資成長主因是AI、HPC等產業在去年強勢拉動業績。新竹市的年薪中位數最高，達90.2萬元，顯示科技與金融產業的強大帶動效果。
Nearly 70% of Workers Earn Below the Average Salary, While Finance Leads the Nation
The Directorate General of Budget released last year’s salary data for employed workers, showing that the median annual salary was NT546,000, the biggest increase since 2013. However, 68.75% of workers still earned less than the average annual salary of NT732,000. The finance and insurance sector ranked first with a median salary of NT1.106 million, followed by the electricity and gas supply sector and the information and communications industries.
Experts say that salary growth mainly came from the strong performance of AI and HPC-related industries last year. Hsinchu City had the highest median annual salary at NT902,000, showing the strong influence of the tech and finance sectors.
第三則：美日領袖再度通話 日本重申「台灣有事」立場未改
在中國國家主席習近平罕見致電美國總統川普後，川普於同日再次致電日本首相高市早苗，並強調美日之間的緊密合作關係。
中國要求高市撤回先前「台灣有事可能構成日本存亡危機事態」的答詢，但日本政府在內閣會議中正式確認立場未改，並重申台海和平與穩定對日本與國際安全都至關重要。
U.S. and Japan Leaders Talk Again as Japan Reaffirms Its “Taiwan Statement” Position
After China’s President Xi Jinping made a rare phone call to U.S. President Donald Trump. Trump called Japan’s Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi on the same day and stressed the close cooperation between the United States and Japan.
China asked Takaichi to withdraw her earlier statement that a “Taiwan contingency could become a survival-threatening situation for Japan,” but Japan’s cabinet meeting officially confirmed that its position has not changed. Japan also reaffirmed that peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait are essential to Japan’s security and to the stability of the international community.
第四則：花蓮女中學生用軟體改造軍營 創新導覽大受歡迎
一群花蓮女中高中生運用「蹦世界」App，將花蓮農好基地從廢軍營轉變為沉浸式解謎導覽。他們將軍事歷史與在地文化拆解成任務關卡，讓原訂30人的活動吸引超過50人報名，並在社群創下20萬次觸及。
學生團隊計畫持續開發無人化版本，協助農好基地打造長期可營運的導覽模式，展現新世代以創意活化地方的能力。
Students from Hualien Girls' High School Transform Old Military Base with App, Innovative Tour Draws Big Crowds
A group of students from Hualien Girls’ High School used the “Popworld” app to turn the Hualien Agriculture Good Base, a former military site, into an immersive puzzle-solving tour. They broke military history and local culture into mission tasks, allowing an event planned for 30 people to attract more than 50 sign-ups and reach over 200,000 views on social media.
The student team plans to keep developing an unmanned version to help the base build a long-term and sustainable tour model, showing how the new generation can use creativity to bring new life to a local community.
第五則：Z世代被誤解了？專家揭露其實不是「自私」
韓國職場常批評 Z 世代太「個人主義」，但專家表示，真正的問題是把「個人主義」錯當成「利己主義」。個人主義重視自我與他人的權利，而利己主義才是不顧團隊。
因韓國企業長期偏向集體文化，年輕人拒做額外雜務或堅持正常下班，就被視為自私。專家強調，各世代其實都受個人主義影響，只是現在的年輕人更敢表達自我。
Is Gen Z Misunderstood? Experts Say They Are Not “Selfish”
Korean workplaces often criticize Gen Z for being too “individualistic,” but experts say the real problem is confusing “individualism” with “egoism.” Individualism values the rights of both oneself and others, while egoism ignores the team.
Because Korean companies have long preferred a collective culture, young workers who refuse extra tasks or insist on leaving work on time are seen as selfish. Experts stress that all generations have been influenced by individualism, but today’s young people simply express it more openly.
Let’s wrap up today’s episode. We’ve learned about some important events happening around the world.
Experts warn that TSMC’s lawsuit shows how even small leaks in employee movement can threaten competitiveness as the global chip war intensifies.
Experts say Taiwan’s salary growth is driven by booming AI-related industries, but most workers still earn below the average, showing a widening gap across sectors and regions.
Japan reiterated its unchanged “Taiwan statement” stance despite China’s pressure, stressing with the U.S. that Taiwan Strait stability is vital for security.
Students from Hualien Girls’ High School transformed a former military base into a hit puzzle tour using the “Popworld” app, proving how youth creativity can revive local spaces.
Experts say Gen Z is not selfish at all—people are simply mistaking healthy individualism for egoism in a workplace still shaped by collective culture.
