Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 101-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 21,754 on turnover of $5.4-billion N-T. The market soared more than 600 points on Thursday on the back of significant gains by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing and other large-cap tech stocks. T-S-M-C saw its share price rise by 4.79-per cent, to close at 940 N-T. And the spike in the company's share price came after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told a conference in San Francisco that Nvidia is struggling to keep up with "incredible" levels of demand from its customers. MOI to Hold Plane Crash and Earthquake Drills Next Wednesday The Ministry of the Interior says it will be holding a series of drills next Wednesday as part of a three-day national exercise to mark the annual National Disaster Prevention Day. According to the ministry, more than 1,300 people, including the public, central and local government officials, and Japanese NGO staff, will participate (參加) in the drills. A plane crash drill will simulate a plane crash following a typhoon and will take place in Penghu County, while the earthquake drill will simulate a magnitude 7.3 earthquake striking Chiayi County's Zhuqi Township. In addition to the drills, a text alert will be sent to people's mobile phones at 9:21AM on September 20 by the Central Weather Administration, along with an alarm sound. Sirens will also sound across the island at 10AM, warning people in coastal towns to be aware of a possible tsunami. While all television channels will cut to the Public Television Service for a two-minute broadcast of disaster prevention information from 10:59 to 11:01AM. NKorea Releases Images of Purported Nuclear Production Facility North Korea has offered a rare glimpse into a secretive (秘密的) facility to produce nuclear materials as it says leader Kim Jong Un visited the area and called for stronger efforts to increase his nuclear weapons. It's unclear if the site is its previously known nuclear-enrichment site in Yongbyon, north of Pyongyang, or another that was undisclosed until now. The images North Korea's media released of the area could provide outside experts a valuable source of information for estimating the amount of nuclear ingredients North Korea has. The report today said Kim expressed “great satisfaction repeatedly” over North Korea's technical force in the nuclear power field. US Trump Rules Out 2nd Debate Former US president Donald Trump has categorically ruled out another debate with his rival (競爭對手) for the White House Kamala Harris. The Harris campaign had called for a second debate between the pair, after polls suggested she performed better during Tuesday night's showdown. Nick Harper reports from Washington. Canada Churchill Portrait to be Returned Canadian police say a renowned portrait of Winston Churchill that was reported stolen from an Ottawa hotel has been tracked down in Italy. Investigators will travel to Rome later this month to retrieve the 1941 portrait of the British leader taken by Ottawa photographer Yousuf Karsh. Officials say once it is in Ottawa police custody, the portrait will be returned to the Fairmont Chateau Laurier, where it will once again be displayed as a notable (顯著的) historic portrait. "The Roaring Lion” was stolen from the Fairmont Chateau Laurier sometime between Christmas Day 2021 and Jan. 6, 2022, and replaced with a forgery. The swap was uncovered months later. That was the I.C.R.T. news, Check in again tomorrow for our simplified version of the news, uploaded every day in the afternoon.

What has been the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on international and Japanese NGO communities? How has Japanese humanitarian and development NGOs responded to the crisis both at home and abroad? How did Japanese NPOs step up to help vulnerable communities in the country and provided support in cases when governmental measures were not sufficient or absent? In this episode Silja Keva speaks with Kamila Szczepanska and Yoko Demelius to look beyond the response of PM Abe's administration to the pandemic and highlight contributions made by Japanese civil society actors to the ongoing struggle against socio-economic fallout from the COVID-19.

Chika Watanabe’s Becoming One: Religion, Development, and Environmentalism in a Japanese NGO in Myanmar (University of Hawaii Press, 2019) is a rich ethnographic study of the work of a Japanese NGO called the Organization for Industrial, Spiritual and Cultural Advancement. Watanabe’s deep dive into the daily workings of OISCA explores the “moral imagination” of constructing unity based on a distinctly Japanese-marked set of ideals and practices within the confines of an unusual Japanese NGO working for decades in Mynamar. OISCA is intriguing in its own right, with roots in a postwar new religion (Ananaikyō) and connections both to right-wing politics in Japan, and with commitments both to a kind of new Shinto-derived global environmentalism and also to a Japanist/culturalist social reform agenda. Becoming One is especially significant as an object of study given not just the NGO’s unusual pedigree, but also the historical relationship between modern Japan and Burma-Myanmar and the ways in which OISCA forces us to reexamine the politics of international aid and development. Watanabe’s book is attuned to the “muddy” (dorokusai) processes of making people (hitozukuri) and constructing a shared sense of home (furusato) that animate the everyday workings of OISCA, as well as the tensions that these goals create on the ground in the training camps.
