KGI SITE, a subsidiary of CDF, is committed to providing high-quality financial services and has adopted “Committed to Your Prosperity” as its brand declaration. Recently, Ann Chang, President of KGI SITE, led her colleagues to volunteer at a rural elementary school, serving lunch, donating nutrition funds, and sharing mealtime with students and teachers from Bitou and Hemei Elementary Schools in Ruifang District, New Taipei City. Through these practical actions, KGI SITE fulfilled its corporate social responsibility.
Angelo Koo, the chairman of the China Development Foundation, has long been concerned about rural school children. For 18 consecutive years, China Development Foundation has been promoting the “Nutrition 100” program, providing long-term subsidies to add nutritious food to students’ meals in remote areas. They also collaborate with colleagues to visit rural elementary schools and hold “Lunch Date” volunteer activities, demonstrating their concern for students in remote areas.
On the eve of Halloween, KGI SITE designed a delicious and nutritious Halloween feast, consisting of a super beef burger accompanied by fried chicken, vegetables, mango cheese, and fruit. This allowed the students to enjoy a hearty meal.
Principal Li of Bitou Elementary School stated that the “Lunch Date” event is exceptional as it allows children to choose their own meal from wishful menus, such as beef burgers and fried chicken, which excites them to the extent that they are unable to sleep the night before. Colleagues from KGI SITE shed their serious financial attire and transformed into “Hamburger Uncle” and “Fried Chicken Sister,” showcasing their culinary skills to fulfill the dreams of rural teachers and students. Even the invited guests, including teachers and students from Hemei Elementary School and police officers from neighboring police stations who dine at the school, experienced the festive atmosphere.
Ann Chang, who has photography as a hobby, captured every exciting moment of the event using a professional camera. Ann stated that KGI SITE cherishes the chance to visit rural schools and interact with children. Through volunteering with colleagues, they not only strengthen team spirit but also create happy memories with the students. It is a rare and valuable experience.
CDF is committed to promoting social inclusion through its “Nutrition 100” project and “Lunch Date” volunteer initiative, continuously delivering love to remote areas and improving the lives of schoolchildren, helping them grow up healthy and happy.
The New Taiwan dollar is on the verge of overtaking the yuan as Asia’s best carry-trade target given its lower risk of interest-rate and currency volatility. A strategy of borrowing the New Taiwan dollar to invest in higher-yielding alternatives has generated the second-highest return over the past month among Asian currencies behind the yuan, based on the Sharpe ratio that measures risk-adjusted relative returns. The New Taiwan dollar may soon replace its Chinese peer as the region’s favored carry trade tool, analysts say, citing Beijing’s efforts to support the yuan that can create wild swings in borrowing costs. In contrast,
Nvidia Corp’s demand for advanced packaging from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC, 台積電) remains strong though the kind of technology it needs is changing, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang (黃仁勳) said yesterday, after he was asked whether the company was cutting orders. Nvidia’s most advanced artificial intelligence (AI) chip, Blackwell, consists of multiple chips glued together using a complex chip-on-wafer-on-substrate (CoWoS) advanced packaging technology offered by TSMC, Nvidia’s main contract chipmaker. “As we move into Blackwell, we will use largely CoWoS-L. Of course, we’re still manufacturing Hopper, and Hopper will use CowoS-S. We will also transition the CoWoS-S capacity to CoWos-L,” Huang said
Nvidia Corp CEO Jensen Huang (黃仁勳) is expected to miss the inauguration of US president-elect Donald Trump on Monday, bucking a trend among high-profile US technology leaders. Huang is visiting East Asia this week, as he typically does around the time of the Lunar New Year, a person familiar with the situation said. He has never previously attended a US presidential inauguration, said the person, who asked not to be identified, because the plans have not been announced. That makes Nvidia an exception among the most valuable technology companies, most of which are sending cofounders or CEOs to the event. That includes
INDUSTRY LEADER: TSMC aims to continue outperforming the industry’s growth and makes 2025 another strong growth year, chairman and CEO C.C. Wei says Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (TSMC, 台積電), a major chip supplier to Nvidia Corp and Apple Inc, yesterday said it aims to grow revenue by about 25 percent this year, driven by robust demand for artificial intelligence (AI) chips. That means TSMC would continue to outpace the foundry industry’s 10 percent annual growth this year based on the chipmaker’s estimate. The chipmaker expects revenue from AI-related chips to double this year, extending a three-fold increase last year. The growth would quicken over the next five years at a compound annual growth rate of 45 percent, fueled by strong demand for the high-performance computing
