Newtalk新聞 中國多地近日接連傳出多起勞資糾紛與欠薪爭議。根據 X 平台多個消息揭露,數起涉及企業欠薪、非法集資暴雷及離職補償引發的維權與暴力事件,凸顯出當前中國勞資關係與基層民眾權益受損的緊張局勢。 據 X 平台 @whyyoutouzhele 引述網友爆料, 10 月 26 日成都新大瀚人力資源管理有限公司一名員工在公司大群內發送訊息討要離職賠償。該員工聲稱,自己遭到公司無故辭退且未獲得法定補償,先前提交的書面異議雖顯示「已讀」卻始終未獲回應。報導稱,該員工主張公司應支付 1 個月工資作為違法解除勞動合約的賠償金,並配合開具離職證明。然而,在發起維權後,該員工及相關訊息迅速遭到公司踢出群組與實施禁言處置。 與此同時,海外勞資糾紛亦演變成慘劇。 X 平台 @jacobincambodia 引述消息指出,泰國曼谷一處建築營地於週二( 27 日)晚間發生嚴重暴力事件,一名中國籍建築業雇主因拒絕支付緬甸工人薪資,雙方發生激烈薪資糾紛,該雇主最終遭毆打致死,另一名中國籍男子亦在衝突中身受重傷。泰國警方目前正全力追捕涉案的兩對緬甸夫妻等四名工人。 泰國曼谷一處建築營地週二晚間發生一起中國籍建築業雇主因拒絕支付緬甸工人薪資,遭到工人集體毆打致死。 圖:翻攝自 X @jacobincambodia 而在金融與消費維權方面, X 平台 @whyyoutouzhele 的消息稱, 10 …

Not panicking about the dry season! Typhoon Kong-rey injects 276 million tons of water; Tsengwen Reservoir resumes power generation and water discharge ZH迎接枯水期不慌!薔琵颱風挹注2.76億噸水量 曾文水庫恢復發電放水
Newtalk新聞 時序即將進入枯水期,所幸薔琵颱風為全台帶來豐沛雨量,替各大水庫帶來約2.76億噸總入流量。經濟部水利署表示,全台主要水庫蓄水率已全面回升,其中曾文水庫蓄水率也重返9成以上,並啟動發電放水至烏山頭水庫蓄存。颱風雨勢與今年6月起累計達4.9億噸的節水調度效益,認為今年底前公共用水及農業二期作供水無虞。 水利署指出,薔琵颱風為入冬前重要降雨機會。依水庫入流量統計,截至10月25日,全台主要水庫預估總入流量約2.76億噸;截至27日,全台主要水庫蓄水率介於84%至100%,整體水情正常。其中,北部石門水庫蓄水率達100%,新竹寶山及寶二水庫合計蓄水率達 96%;中部鯉魚潭水庫達 99%、德基水庫達 96%;南部曾文及烏山頭水庫合計蓄水率達90%、南化水庫達99%。 除了北部以外,薔琵颱風也為嘉義縣山區帶來豐沛雨量,其中,曾文水庫集水區總降雨量為73.3毫米,為水庫帶來約925萬立方公尺進水量,蓄水率也從88.8%增至90.5%。回到9成之後,曾文水庫自27日中午11時起,發電放水至烏山頭水庫蓄存利用,自27日11時起至28日24時止累積放水量約640萬立方公尺。 對此,南區水資源分署指出,而目前農業二期稻作已進入抽穗期,經與農水署合作透過加強灌溉管理及依現地供灌情形,滾動檢討調配灌溉水量,以節省水庫用水,並為明年一期作供水預作準備。不過也提醒,因時序即將進入枯水期,面對後續降雨的不確定性,仍需珍惜水資源。延伸閱讀:巴基斯坦挺一中關領空又急撤銷!准華航、長榮飛至明年3月 交通部回應了薔琵颱風掀翻吊車終於打撈上岸!富岡漁港今日復航 售票處人潮大排長龍薔琵颱風6國預報準度大PK!台灣「24小時誤差最小」奪冠 日本爆冷墊底薔琵颱風期間趕走產婦!高雄月子中心惡性倒閉 檢拘提負責人姊弟仁武月子中心疑似惡意倒閉 橋檢全面蒐證依法偵辦

China builds trimaran stealth warship, suspected 'floating arsenal' threatening carrier groups 1,500km away ZH中國造出三體潛航戰艦 疑「浮動武庫」威脅1500公里外航艦群
Newtalk新聞 美國潛艦專家薩頓(HI Sutton)分析先前被商業衛星拍攝到,在中國大連港現身、渤海葫蘆島海域試航的,前所未見的三體構型潛航戰艦。推測可能可搭載16至18具飛彈發射管,若是搭載鷹擊-20(YJ-20)等水面發射的高超音速反艦或對地導彈,將足以威脅1500公里外的航艦戰鬥群。 根據了解,這艘可能還在測試階段的「非常規」三體潛航戰艦,由廣州黃埔船廠建造,今年5月被衛星拍到出現在大連港碼頭,證實並非紙上概念,而是已完成的實體。 2026年5月,被商業衛星Vantor拍到靠泊大連港的新型三體潛航戰艦。 圖:翻攝NavalNews 薩頓分析,該艦採用中央主船體加尾部兩側外浮體的三體設計,全長約65公尺,潛航排水量估計約900噸。中央船體設有兩個大型水平武器艙,內部以圓形叢集方式存放導彈發射管,目前可確認至少8管,若兩艙對稱則可達16至18管。發射時必須上浮、開啟艙門並將發射管豎起至垂直或近垂直角度。 衛星照顯示,艦艇設有醒目通氣管桅杆,因此認為該艦以柴油動力為主,在潛航時可運轉柴油機;外浮體則配備導管螺旋槳(可能為泵噴),推測主體另有主推進器或噴水推進。艦橋設有小型開放式駕駛台,但內部空間因武器艙佔用大部分容積而極為狹窄,分析認為以無人操作為主,人員僅在進出港時短暫登艦操控。這與中國其他大型無人水面艦(USV)或超大型無人潛航器(XLUUV)的港口與計畫有所區別,顯示為獨立的新類型戰艦。 美國潛艦專家薩頓推測:中國新型三體潛航戰艦,可能配備16至18具飛彈發射管,可威脅1500公里外航艦戰鬥群。 圖:翻攝NavalNews 該艦最早於2025年10月在廣州船廠被發現時仍以帆布遮蓋,外界當時推測為半潛式武庫艦。如今實體影像與試航活動證實其已進入測試階段,但中國官方未公布任何名稱、型號或用途說明,亦未見中國媒體報導。專家將其比擬為冷戰時期蘇聯「朱麗葉」級(Juliett Class)巡航導彈潛艦的現代版,即必須上浮發射重型反艦導彈,但新艦載彈量更大、依賴外部目標數據,定位為分散式網路中的發射平台,而非獨立作戰單位。 目前該艦仍處於分析與推測階段,尚未進入量產,其最終性能、隱身特性與實際部署方式仍有待更多觀測確認。然而,衛星影像與多個獨立開源分析的交叉驗證已清楚顯示:中國確實造出了這種非常規的三體潛航戰艦,並正在進行海上試驗。延伸閱讀:由東向西橫跨俄羅斯!「北風之神」潛射核洲際彈道飛彈「按時抵達」狂轟?!北韓一次射10枚短程彈道飛彈 今年第17次楊宏基觀點》不是「超譯」是「畫錯重點」 「第一天就投入」簡譯不負責又危險擺脫中國市場反獲利!保時捷推客製化與高單價策略 利潤率攀至6.9%賴清德示警中國、黑幫介選!籲在外工作、求學的遊子們返鄉投票

Second trial for former South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol's martial law insurrection case begins; prosecutors strongly demand death penalty ZH韓前總統尹錫悅戒嚴內亂罪二審開庭 檢強烈要求判處死刑
Newtalk新聞 前韓國總統尹錫悅因於2024年12月3日宣布戒嚴(韓稱12·3內亂),遭韓國國會通過彈劾案。韓國憲法裁判所隨後以8名憲法裁判官全體一致的意見,裁定彈劾成立,解除尹錫悅總統職務。此外,尹錫悅也因涉嫌在戒嚴事件中擔任內亂首謀遭到起訴,檢方並求處死刑。儘管一審法院最終判處無期徒刑,但負責偵辦此案的內亂特檢團(下稱檢方)今(29)日在二審開庭時,仍要求法院改判尹錫悅死刑,並強調「沒有任何理由猶豫是否判處死刑」。 首爾高等法院今日針對尹錫悅等人涉及內亂罪部分進行二審開庭。檢方針對尹錫悅量刑指出,本案係利用《大韓民國憲法》及法律所建立軍隊與警察上下服從指揮體系,所發動「由上而下的內亂」,且綜合考量其對社會及犯罪所造成之影響,此類犯罪並非如「由下而上的內亂」。 檢方指出,尹錫悅戒嚴相關射擊內亂案件,早在一年前就已開始策劃,這包括分階段安排將負責主要任務的軍事指揮官就任相關職位等,據此這起政變經過極為縝密的規劃。而尹錫悅在戒嚴令生效後,還向韓國陸軍首都防衛司令部司令官下達「即使開槍,也要破門進入」的指示,應認定這是准許使用實彈的命令。 檢方也批評,一審法院將尹錫悅克制使用武力視為有利量刑因素的判斷,屬於量刑判斷過程中的事實認定錯誤。檢方強調,該案係負有維護《大韓民國憲法》最高階公務員總統所發動的「由上而下的內亂」。尹錫悅利用其職位與經歷實施犯罪,而且考量內亂罪的特殊性,本來就很難設想再次犯下相同罪行的情況。 檢方還指出,一般刑事審判僅在判處有期徒刑時,才會考量被告年齡及預期剩餘壽命,以決定具有實際執行效果的刑期,而非單純因被告高齡就視為有利量刑因素。然而,一審法院在判處尹錫悅無期徒刑時,卻將高齡、學歷、經歷及犯罪前科等列為有利因素,量刑判斷顯有不當。 檢方續指,尹錫悅至今未曾為戒嚴事件道歉或反省,仍堅稱戒嚴具有正當性,甚至試圖將司法案件政治化,助長國民對立,並認為,一審法院未充分評價其犯後態度,應予以糾正。 據《韓聯社》報導,這是繼前總統全斗煥之後,大韓民國憲政史上再有涉嫌內亂的最高權力者受到司法定罪。延伸閱讀:僱用安定措施續施行六個月 僅原2行業+1新行業可申請陸委會稱「台灣沒台獨選項」 鄭麗文:那民進黨怎麼有台獨黨綱?巴基斯坦挺一中關領空又急撤銷!准華航、長榮飛至明年3月 交通部回應了台股攻5萬點延後!杜金龍籲留意這5檔 曝等「這2件事」後一路長紅蔣萬安喊「不打負面選戰」學者揭造謠手段轟:顛倒黑白、赤裸裸造謠!好意思?
