Ghost Island Media updates 剩四個月就 2023?!
This year is almost over?! 一口氣要跟你講很多
這九個月來，英國女王過世、全球暖化的效應更加嚴重、俄羅斯入侵烏克蘭還未停戰、中國也向台灣試發了飛彈。但儘管如此，世界上還是有許多的溫暖：台北市動物園的兩隻穿山甲抵達布拉格展開了異國生活、台灣的邊境管制漸漸開放中。在鬼島之音，我們也有許多動態要分享。
What a year it’s been. China staged live-missile drills over Taiwan. Russia’s War on Ukraine continues. Record-high temperatures around the world this summer. And this past weekend we saw the passing of QEII (1926-2022).
There’s good news too though. Two (adorable) pangolins from Taipei Zoo arrived in Prague this spring to fanfare and the promise of a new breeding program. Taiwan is slowly opening its borders. And over at Ghost Island Media, we’ve been busy too.
