Taiwan is looking to recruit its next generation of diplomats! If you have a strong dedication to upholding Taiwan's sovereignty, then the Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomes you to apply.

This year's Special Examination for Consular and Diplomatic Personnel has been updated. The English requirements and qualifications for the exam are the same as before, but now apart from the Chinese language and law and politics sections, where questions and answers will still be given in Chinese, all other topics will be in English. That means answers will be required in English as well!

For the oral exams, the group exam will still be in Chinese and the individual exam in English.

If you think you've got what it takes, take note of the following dates:
Sign up: May 25 to June 3
Written exams: September 4 & 5
Oral exams: December 18 (subject to change)

各位朋友

知名的醫學期刊刺絡針(Lancet)24日發表了一篇中國的研究論文。

#論文中把台灣當成中國的一省來和其他省來做比較。

台灣的許多學者，紛紛去留言表達抗議！
台灣和中國有著完全不一樣的健康照護體系，根本無法合在一起比較討論。
#這個顯然是中國作者在吃台灣的豆腐，試圖矮化台灣！
#這顯然是一個政治干預研究的例子。

外交部、台灣醫界應該同聲譴責，呼籲Lancet撤除此論文！

#各位可以到此留言表達關切，中英文都可以：

#也可以去給_不推薦_的評分，留下這段理由，或是中文的理由：
Taiwan is not a province of China.
Taiwan has a totally different healthcare system from China, hence, to compare Taiwan with other provinces of China is absolutely a methodological error. This article should be retracted from your esteemed journal. Please do not allow politics to interfere with research.

The Lancet | Research | Mortality, morbidity, and risk factors in China and its provinces, 1990–2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017

Chronic conditions, such as stroke, ischemic heart disease & lung cancer – not infectious diseases – are now top 5 causes of early death in China: finding from a new #GBDStudy of mortality, morbidity & risk factors in #China & its provinces, 1990–2017 by @Institute for health. This is the first comprehensive subnational assessment of health to include data on mortality, morbidity, combined health loss, and risks in China. Major improvements have been made to the GBD methods since the 2013 subnational analysis of population health in China. These include additional causes of death and disability, greater disaggregation of age groups, substantially expanded data sources, the development of data quality ratings, improvements to estimation models, the development of the Socio-demographic Index, consideration of summary exposure values for risk factors, and a fully updated time series of estimates, among other improvements.

麻煩大家幫忙
留下優秀的一家人

他們來自波多黎各
父母親都是名校約翰霍普金大學的電腦碩士
(Master Degree in Computer Science - Johns Hopkins University at Laurel, MD)
他們著五個孩子，到全世界學習
Diego 17歲 Paula 13 歲 Alonzo 12 歲
Felizi 8 歲 Matteo 6 歲

八月，他們到了台灣
發覺這是一個非常適合的生活環境
有好的醫療、中文學習環境、電腦產業、和超好吃的水果
九月，Diego , Paula, Alonzo進入惠文高中寄讀
他們來了之後，學校形成一個很棒的英語學習情境
台灣學生都被迫用英文跟他們互動

星期五與台北歌德學院簽訂德國「PASCH夥伴學校」時
他們三個和學校弦樂社一起合奏卡農(見影片)
非常非常有教養的一家人

然而他們11月就必須離開台灣
因為他們來台灣的第五天
得到美國總公司的通知
他們收掉波多黎各的公司
爸爸Tommy失業了
所以這幾天，他在台中接一個英文家教
但經濟仍是問題

如果台中的朋友可以提供11月4日前的短期英文、西班牙文家教工作
或是提供長期電腦工程師的工作
麻煩和Tommy聯絡
以下是他的聯絡方式及完整資歷
(願意幫他們申請工作簽證更好)
他們很願意把台灣當成第二個家

PS
覺得政府說要把英文變成第二語言
最棒的方式是吸引國外的學生進入我們的校園
在人才即國力的年代
讓優秀的國際人才留在台灣
如果在台灣就有很好的英語學習環境
我們就不用一窩蜂跑到國外

He also developed a custom interface for each of the 3 roles (CBO, VAMC and VISN). Tools were built for the administrator to view current reports, view missing reports lists, and configure many parameters in the application. The VAMC report form was heavily automated using jQuery to perform auto calculations, increasing data validation and saving time to the users.

Welcome to a NEW type of videos on this channel where I'll (try to) regularly update you all with Taiwan News and talk about the days that have passed. Unsurprisingly, this week has solely been focused on COVID-19. However, as there already is a significant amount of videos out there talking about the situation in Taiwan, we wanted to turn it around and inform the Taiwanese audience how the situation looks like in other parts of the world.

Thank you all so much for watching and please note that we'll keep the tone a lot lighter in future videos. So don't forget to subscribe to all our channels to show your support and to stay updated for more Taiwan News!
