受到強烈大陸冷氣團影響,明天開始氣溫會急降。氣象局表示,不排除發布低溫特報。

[[中央氣象局預報員 吳依帆]]
“因為強烈大陸冷氣團逐漸南下,加上華南雲雨區,水氣逐漸東移到台灣附近,因此下雨情況,會越來越明顯,而且氣溫會逐日下降,預計最冷的時間 ,出現在下周二 ,中部以北出現10到11度低溫”

氣象局預估,這波強烈大陸冷氣團,影響到下周三,但下周四馬上又有冷氣團接近,溼冷天氣,將持續一周。

Cold Weather Coming (2014/02/07)

A strong continental air mass will lead temperatures lower tomorrow with the the Central Weather Bureau potentially issuing a cold weather warning. 

Wu Yi-fan
Central Weather Bureau Forecaster 
"Because a strong continental cold air mass is gradually moving southward and the influence of rains from southern China moving eastward will bring more moisture closer to Taiwan, increasing the chance of rain. And with temperatures dropping each day, we expect the coldest day to be next Tuesday, and central and northern Taiwan could see lows of 10-11 degrees. 

The Central Weather Bureau believes this current continental air mass could affect weather until next Wednesday. Unfortunately, it may be followed by another cold air mass next Thursday, as cold, wet weather may last for a whole week.

Taiwan’s Gretai Securities Market, the operator of Taiwan’s over-the-counter stock market, will soon issue a co-branded credit card. It hopes to parlay its relationship with some 900 companies on OTC into offering special discounts and other benefits.

At the moment, nearly 900 companies are listed on the OTC exchange which is now seeking more inroads into consumer businesses. It currently has a partnership with more than a dozen companies including Thai Town, Taiwan High Speed Rail, and Janfusan Fancy World offering discount and even two types of cash back programs.

被質疑"去台灣化",高中課綱微調爭議持續延燒,民進黨執政的六個縣市,中午在全國教育局處首長會議趁機提案,要求教育部暫緩實施新課綱。免得貿然上路,將造成社會不安。尤其台南跟高雄教育局長更是砲火猛烈,但部長蔣偉寧最後還是重申,新課綱已經通過不會暫緩!

針對高中課綱微調,用"中國大陸",來取代"中國",部長蔣偉寧強調合憲,但台南市教育局長不認同,發言開炮。部長蔣偉寧,台上不願正面迎戰。

[[教育部長 蔣偉寧]]
合法就是合乎兩岸人民關係條例,這樣一個思考,你認為哪裡不合憲嗎?

全國教育局長會議第二天,包含台南,高雄等綠營執政的6縣市,直接發起臨時提案,建請教育部,暫緩公布新課綱,重新審議。

[[高雄市教育局長 鄭新輝]]
絕對不能夠強制就要第一線的老師,來教沒有共識的史實,我們沒有辦法對我們的下一代做交代。

雖然提案在大會上引起熱烈討論,但教育部還是沒改口,蔣偉寧重申新課綱已經通過,下周就會公布,明年中開學實施。

[[教育部長 蔣偉寧]]
我想我在這個時間點上,並沒有要改變那樣子的一個程序,所以我還是會持續地走。

面對中央強硬決策,六縣市也決定祭出反擊,這場中央地方教育對槓,持續延燒。

DPP-led municipalities continue to oppose changes to history textbooks (2014/02/07)

Controversy continues over proposed adjustments to the high school curriculum guidelines. Six DPP led municipal governments believe there is a deliberate attempt to de-emphasize Taiwan in the new curriculum as they advocate a temporary suspension of the changes. 

Education Minister, Chiang Wei-ling said changing high school curriculum guidelines to use the term “mainland China " instead of "China" is in line with the constitution. However, Tainan City Bureau of Education Chief didn’t agree, setting off a heated debate, though Chiang was unwilling to engage in the vocal battle. 

Chiang Wei-ling 
Education Minister 
By constitutional, I mean it is based upon Act Governing Relations between the People of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area. This is what we follow, so why do you think it is unconstitutional?

On the second day of a national meeting of education bureaus, Tainan, Kaohsiung and a total of 6 DPP-led municipalities initiated an interim proposal to temporarily suspend the new guidelines, and reconsider their changes.

鄭麗文棄政轉媒,準備去當主持人,接棒的是他,公平會副主委孫立群。
