Vice President Lai Ching-te has been elected the new chair of Taiwan’s ruling Democratic Progressive Party with a mission to get the party back to winning ways for the next presidential and legislative elections in 2024. The country’s main east coast highway has been cleared of debris from a landslide last week that blocked off traffic, but safety restrictions have led to long lines of waiting vehicles. And a landmark court ruling means women may inherit leadership of ancestor worship guilds, which are grassroots organizations that play an important role in Taiwan society and local politics. Also:
– Taiwan’s push for wind power is one of a number of threats to both local and migratory bird populations.
– A cold front has swept across northern Taiwan, with more cold weather expected for the start of the Lunar New Year.
– With the Year of the Rabbit hopping into view, we visit a cafe in Taipei that caters specially to bunnies and their owners.
