Hello everyone, this is Lauly. I am writing this week’s #techAsia on my way back to Taipei from a 5G industry event in Taoyuan, a rising hub for 5G technologies. It has been two weeks since US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taiwan. China responded with several days of live-fire military drills around the democratically-governed island, but despite the rising tensions, business here goes on, as does daily life for ordinary people. A department store I went to over the weekend was packed with crowds, and I even had to wait in line to get a table at a coffee shop.
大家好，我是勞利(Lauly)。我是在參加完在桃園舉行的5G行業活動返回臺北的路上撰寫本周的亞洲科技聚焦(#techAsia)的。桃園是一個正在崛起的5G技術中心。美國眾議院議長南希·佩洛西(Nancy Pelosi)訪問臺灣已經兩周了。作為回應，中國大陸在這個島嶼周圍進行了幾天的實彈軍事演習，但盡管緊張局勢不斷升級，這里的商業和普通民眾的日常生活仍在繼續。我周末去的一家百貨商店擠滿了人，我甚至不得不在咖啡店排隊等位子。
