Some of Live Eye's customers, including 7-Eleven operate as franchises, so it is not clear whether franchisees or the main business purchased its surveillance tech, VICE reported. "7-Eleven, Inc. cares deeply about the safety of our associates and customers," 7-Eleven said in a statement to VICE. "We provide every 7-Eleven store with a base security system that includes CCTV and alarms, however, independent franchise owners can install their own system on top of what is provided."Live Eye, 7-Eleven, Dairy Queen, Holiday Inn, and Shell did not immediately respond to Insider for comment.

Inflation based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) was at 5.69% in December 2023 and 6.52% in January 2024. In August 2023, inflation touched a high of 6.83%. According to the data released by the <keyword id="20070866" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="national-statistical-office" source="keywords">National Statistical Office</keyword> (<keyword id="20067517" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="nso" source="keywords">NSO</keyword>), retail inflation in the food basket was at 8.3% in January 2024, down from 9.53% in the preceding month. “Inflation came in higher for December than our expectations at 5.1% against 4.7%, though lower than that of November which was 5.7%. Food products continue to exert upward pressure on inflation with cereals, vegetables, fruits, pulses, sugar and spices all witnessing high increases. There has been soothing of inflation in the core goods and services which is a relief from the point of view of monetary policy,” said <keyword id="20102121" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="madan-sabnavis" source="keywords">Madan Sabnavis</keyword>, chief economist at Bank of Baroda. Twelve of the 22 states witnessed higher than average inflation. It indicates that inflation is still high in large states like Maharashtra, UP, Gujarat, Karnataka, opine experts. The <keyword id="19899810" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="reserve-bank-of-india" source="keywords">Reserve Bank of India</keyword> has been tasked by the government to ensure retail inflation remains at 4%. “With RBI stating risk of food inflation translating into generalised inflation, we expect RBI to continue cautious stance. However, softening of core inflation should provide confidence to trajectory of inflation moving as expected. We think RBI would rather continue with stability priority and continue maintaining 4% inflation target as sacrosanct, and hence we do not see premature easing from RBI,” said Akhil Mittal, senior fund manager-fixed income, Tata Mutual Fund. Most experts believe that uncertain food prices will keep the central bank cautious. "CPI inflation came in slightly softer than our expectations led by moderation in food prices. Positively though, core inflation softened in line with our expectations. However, uncertainties in food inflation outlook should keep RBI cautious in the near term, with much of action by the RBI expected on the liquidity front," said Upasna Bhardwaj, chief economist, Kotak Mahindra Bank. Industrial production grows 3.8% in December 2023 India's industrial production grew 3.8% in December 2023, according to official data released on Monday. Factory output measured in terms of the Index of Industrial Production (IIP) had witnessed a growth of 5.1 per cent in December 2022. "India's Index of Industrial Production grows by 3.8% in December 2023," an official statement said. The data released by the National Statistical Office (NSO) showed that the manufacturing sector's output grew 3.9% in December 2023, up from 3.6% in the year-ago month. In December last year, the mining production rose 5.1% and power output increased 1.2%. IIP grew 6.1% during the April-December 2023 period compared to a 5.5% expansion in the year-ago period. “Growth has been pulled down by electricity growth which was just 1.2% reflecting lower levels of demand. Eleven of the 23 manufacturing categories witnessed negative growth with the significant one again being electronic items. Textiles too continue to be in the negative zone due to lower export demand,” says Sabnavis. (With inputs from PTI)

Apple has been forced to move from a lightning port to the USB Type-C port after the EU<a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/after-eu-india-wants-companies-to-offer-a-common-charger-for-all-devices/articleshow/93469948.cms"> introduced</a> rules mandating companies to offer a common charger for all small devices such as smartphones and tablets in a bid to reduce electronic waste. Apple has been the only smartphone company to not offer a USB Type-C port for its smartphones and EU regulations have finally pushed the company to the Type-C port, which is found on most devices these days. USB Type-C port can be called as the industry standard for connectivity when it comes to smartphones and Apple’s shift towards this will make it easier for iPhone users to connect and charge their smartphones. This will also mean that users looking for new cables for the smartphones will be able to get cheaper cables as Type-C cables are available at an affordable price. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="The iPhone 15 may be limited to USB 2.0" comment="subhead" text="The iPhone 15 may be limited to USB 2.0">The iPhone 15 may be limited to USB 2.0</cmsannotation> While the addition of a USB Type-C port is great news, the iPhone 15 series will reportedly be limited to USB 2.0 data transfer speeds, which is 480 Mbps – just like the lightning port. For some context, the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is equipped with a USB Type-C 3.1 Gen 1 port that offers 5 Gbps data transfer speeds. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="What’s different for India this time" comment="subhead" text="What’s different for India this time">What’s different for India this time</cmsannotation> Apple has been producing iPhones in India for some time now but the major change this year is expected to be the timing. Unlike last year wherein the company started production of iPhone 14 in India nearly at the end of<a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/enterprise/news/apple-starts-manufacturing-iphone-14-in-india/articleshow/94447212.cms"> September</a>, the production is expected to begin sooner this year. According to reports, Apple is gearing up to begin the production of the iPhone 15 series in India with its three manufacturers – Foxconn, Wistron and Pegatron already sourcing components. In the first wave, the company is expected to introduce “Made in India” iPhones from the Foxconn plant in Chennai in mid-September. “Apple has ramped up manufacturing in India. All three manufacturing partners for Apple in India, Foxconn, Wistron, and Pegatron are awardees of the PLI scheme (Production Linked Incentive) which has been one of the top government schemes aimed at increasing manufacturing in India. India has become a focused market for Apple,” said Shilpi Jain, senior analyst, Counterpoint Research. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Exports from India to start in December" comment="subhead" text="Exports from India to start in December">Exports from India to start in December</cmsannotation> Once the festive season ends in India and the demand is reduced, Apple is expected to begin the exports of iPhones from India to the US and other countries. Apple’s exports from India have been increasing over the years. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="iPhones exports from India" comment="subhead" text="iPhones exports from India">iPhones exports from India</cmsannotation> iPhone exports from India have been gaining steam amid the company’s pivot away from China. India now accounts for around 7% of Apple’s global production, up from around 1% in 2021 when the government introduced the PLI scheme. The three manufacturers of iPhones in India have committed to exports worth Rs 61,000 crore for FY24. Interestingly, the iPhone contributed to over 60% of all mobile exports from India in the first quarter of FY24. Apple’s exports also made electronics the fourth-largest exported items in the first quarter of FY24. In 2022-23 the Cupertino tech giant exported around $5 billion worth of iPhones from India, out of the total local production worth $7.5 billion, as per an ET report.

Also, 2,364 startups were funded in India during the year, and 469 of them were in the cloud and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) companies, said a report by <keyword id="290936" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="bessemer-venture-partners" source="Orion">Bessemer Venture Partners</keyword> (BVP). “Cloud spending in India grew nearly 22% last year, putting it nearly in line with the entire continent of Europe. Importantly, India’s growth in public cloud services spending vastly outpaces its overall growth in IT spending (2%), more so than for other geographic regions,” the report said. India currently has eleven Cloud and SaaS companies that are considered centaurs (a business that reaches $100 million of annual recurring revenue), which includes three companies that achieved centaur status last year. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Indian startups early adopters of multi-product strategy" comment="subhead2" text="Indian startups early adopters of multi-product strategy">Indian startups early adopters of multi-product strategy</cmsannotation> According to the report, cloud-based companies operating in the Indian market are pursuing a multi-product approach. Vertical SaaS firms are developing additional products that cover different stages of the customer journey, while horizontal SaaS companies are diversifying into other business segments that are related to their core offerings. The fact that the Indian cloud market is able to develop multi-product solutions rapidly is a testament to the country's skilled developer workforce and its customer base for SaaS products. Previously, Indian start-up founders had to move to the United States to sell their products, but the pandemic has enabled Indian companies to sell remotely to both domestic and foreign customers. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Indian SaaS companies are using AI to productise services" comment="subhead2" text="Indian SaaS companies are using AI to productise services">Indian SaaS companies are using AI to productise services</cmsannotation> The report finds that the Indian cloud market is also leveraging the potential of AI. “In particular, Indian SaaS companies are leveraging AI to help productise services,” says Anant Vidur Puri, partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. Notably, leading cloud companies are incorporating Language and Learning Models (LLMs) in conjunction with human resources. For example, Entropik uses facial expressions and tone of voice analysis to generate user research with emotional intelligence, while Leena AI assists HR teams in creating customised virtual assistants for their respective company's needs and culture, the report said. Indian startups are also leveraging the cloud to offer services and utilise LLMs to enhance accuracy and quality. For example, Pepper Content assists content creators in improving their work and has integrated AI into its quality assurance process, which is later reviewed by employees. Similarly, Perfios helps underwriters analyse credit profiles by using AI to gather and analyse data from various databases, providing lenders with a more complete view of creditworthiness compared to traditional banking methods. In India, AI is being used to improve job performance rather than replace humans. Last year, venture capital investors invested $53 billion in cloud companies outside the US and Canada, accounting for 42% of global cloud VC investment. Additionally, cloud and SaaS deals made up almost a quarter of all venture-backed startups worldwide.

Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and elected to bowl first against India in a high-octane Group 2 match in Super 12 of the ICC Men's <keyword id="44040" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="T20-World-Cup" source="Orion">T20 World Cup</keyword> at the Dubai International Stadium here on Sunday. After winning the toss, Azam said that Haider Ali was left out from the 12-man shortlist for the playing eleven. "We'll look to take early wickets and put pressure. Dew is also a factor. We have had good practice sessions and are confident about our preparations. Pakistan's bowlers are known to trouble other teams but I am confident about our batting too." India skipper Virat Kohli said Rahul Chahar, Ishan Kishan, Ravichandran Ashwin and Shardul Thakur are the four non-playing members of the squad. "We are pretty happy with setting the target. We would have bowled first too, but the toss is not in your control. We are pretty balanced with our squad and you need to be prepared for it. We need to stay as professional as possible. We need to stay focussed on the processes. Everyone watches it closely all over the world. We need to ensure we don't get too emotional. The pitch looks very different. Evenly rolled and there is no grass at all which was the case during the IPL. We expect the pitch to stay good all through and set a good total."

This is below the 4.4% growth rate for total ad spend in the 11 key markets included in the report.* Beauty adspend will total US$7.5bn across these markets in 2021 and then rise to US$7.7bn in 2022, growing by 2.6%, compared to 4.5% for the market as a whole. Beauty and personal luxury ad spend fell roughly in line with the market in 2020. The sharp drop in spending on cosmetics and fragrances as people stopped meeting in person was mitigated by continued demand for both hair and skin care. With hairdressers and salons harder to reach, consumers took hair care into their own hands at home. Skin care, meanwhile, benefited from the heightened desire for health-enhancing products during the pandemic. During the recovery, though, overall demand for beauty will not change much as consumers remain reluctant to return to their pre-pandemic habits, reducing sales of cosmetics and fragrances in particular. Most beauty and personal luxury brands will not raise budgets substantially, and will be more likely to redeploy spending from underperforming channels instead. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Better environments and ecommerce help digital compensate for declining reach of magazines and TV" text="Better environments and ecommerce help digital compensate for declining reach of magazines and TV">Better environments and ecommerce help digital compensate for declining reach of magazines and TV</cmsannotation> Beauty and personal luxury brands spend much more of their budgets on magazines and TV than the average brand. Beauty, the quintessential category of appearance, thrives on its ability to create emotional connections through imagery in a high-quality environment. Zenith estimates that in 2020 <keyword id="1138672" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="beauty-brands">beauty brands</keyword> spent 18.3% of their budgets on magazines advertising, 4.3 times more than the average brand, and 42.2% on television, 1.6 times more than average. But these media are becoming less effective as their reach continues to decline and the scarcity of their audiences pushes up prices. Beauty and personal luxury brands have been relatively slow to adopt digital advertising, spending 34.1% of their budgets digitally in 2020, compared to 53.1% for the market as a whole. This is a result of the historic lack of premium digital environments that support the high-quality brand imagery that beauty and personal luxury brands need to convey. It is also due to the difficulty the beauty industry has had adapting to ecommerce, because consumers feel the need to sample and try on beauty products in person before committing to a specific product. According to Euromonitor International, 11.8% of beauty and personal luxury sales were through ecommerce in 2019, compared to 13.2% for the market as a whole. However, technologies like video-on-demand and connected TV, and social platforms like Instagram and TikTok, are creating new premium environments that showcase beauty and personal luxury brands effectively. Brands have also greatly stepped up investment in their ecommerce offerings since the start of the pandemic as a matter of necessity, as bricks-and-mortar retail sales shrank. Digital channels are therefore becoming more valuable for both brand and performance advertising. Zenith estimates that the beauty category increased its spending on digital advertising 2.8% in 2020, despite the pandemic. This was twice the 1.4% growth rate of digital advertising across all categories, as beauty and personal luxury brands began to compensate for previous under investment. Zenith forecasts average growth of 5.9% a year in digital advertising between 2019 and 2022. Beauty and personal luxury adspend on all other media will decline over this period, by between 1.2% a year for TV and 12.4% a year for magazines. “Beauty brands were forced to accelerate their ecommerce strategies in 2020, some pioneering the use of virtual and augmented reality to allow consumers to try on and model products online,” said Christian Lee, Global Managing Director, Zenith. “Continued innovation in ecommerce technology to improve the consumer experience will be key to unlocking brand growth for 2021 and beyond.” <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="France and India to lead beauty and personal luxury adspend growth" text="France and India to lead beauty and personal luxury adspend growth">France and India to lead beauty and personal luxury adspend growth</cmsannotation> Zenith expects France to be the best-performing beauty ad market over the next two years, growing by 13.3% a year on average. That’s a reaction to the depth of its decline in 2020, when beauty brands cut budgets by 32.9% whole. The market will start to recover quickly from this reduced base in 2021, but is still expected to be 13.8% lower in 2022 than it was in 2019, compared to the 3.6% average drop across all eleven markets over this period. India, by contrast, is forecast to grow as a result of strong consumer demand. Beauty ad spend was stable in India in 2020, and is forecast to grow at an average of 7.6% a year as more consumers take up the habit of regularly buying beauty products. Beauty and personal luxury adspend in India is forecast to be 15.2% higher in 2022 than it was in 2019. Demand will recover more slowly across North America and the rest of Western Europe, leading to annual growth in beauty adspend of 1%-2% a year in Canada, Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK and the US. “Growth in beauty and personal luxury advertising will lag behind the market while consumers remain cautious about travelling in public and meeting in person,” said Jonathan Barnard, Head of Forecasting, Zenith. “But by investing in digital technology that embeds ecommerce into the heart of their operations, brands will prime themselves for more rapid growth when demand picks up.” Beauty and personal luxury is defined as the combination of four sub-categories: cosmetics, fragrances, hair care and skin care

"So living here surprised me very much."Cubero, 39, settled down in the northern city of Taoyuan with her husband and now two sons."One thing I like a lot about living here is security, because unfortunately my country is not very secure now. You cannot walk in the street [in Costa Rica] because maybe you might be robbed," she said. "Here it's very safe.

Expats ranked Taiwan higher than anywhere else when it comes to quality of life, working abroad, and friendliness.As of April 2021, roughly 753,000 foreign workers live in Taiwan, according to <a href="https://english.mol.gov.tw/6387/">Ministry of Labor statistics</a>. Nearly 40,000 of those are workers who would typically be considered expats. About 22% come from Japan, 10% from the US, and the rest from a range of countries including Malaysia, the UK, and Korea.Insider spoke to seven expats about life in Taiwan, both before and during the pandemic. Here's what they said. <h2>A comfortable lifestyle with plenty of perks</h2>Taiwan is an autonomous democratic island that views itself as an independent state, but China considers it a renegade province that's part of the country's territory.Many expats who've set up camp on the island live a cushy lifestyle thanks to the benefits provided by their companies. The <a href="https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4051145">average annual salary in Taiwan is roughly $30,000</a>, but many expats make much more than that. Steve Burson, CEO of relocation company <a href="https://www.relonetworkasia.com/">Relo Network Asia</a>, told Insider that most of their clients earn between $120,000 and $240,000 a year. And many of them get their biggest living expense - housing - paid for by their companies."They live at the top of our rich people's lifestyle," Amy Liu, a relocation specialist at Relo Network Asia, told Insider. "They live in the top buildings here in Taiwan."Most companies also cover other major relocation costs like tax equalization - which means they raise their employees' salaries enough so they're effectively paid at the same tax rate as in their home country - and kids' schooling, Burson added.Free housing is no small thing, particularly in the capital of Taipei, where most expats live. The average monthly rent for a three-bedroom apartment in Taipei's expat neighborhoods <a href="https://www.eca-international.com/news/april-2020/taipei-enters-the-top-50-most-expensive-cities-in#:~:text=The%20average%20monthly%20rental%20price,of%205.29%25%20from%20last%20year.">reached $3,656 last year</a>, according to a report from consultancy firm ECA <keyword id="6356001" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="international">International</keyword>.Bert Van Dijk, a 47-year-old from the Netherlands, moved to Taiwan <a href="https://ourexpatlife.com/">with his wife and two kids</a> in 2017 on a two-year assignment with his company, ASML, which makes semiconductor chips used in smartphones and computers. They've ended up staying for nearly four years.Van Dijk and his family live in a suburb of Hsinchu City in a house paid for by his company. The company also pays for the schooling of the now-teenagers at the Hsinchu International School, where <a href="http://www.hdis.hc.edu.tw/Application%20info/application%20info/application.html">a year's tuition and fees</a> for two high-schoolers is upwards of $40,000.<div type="image" title="taiwan expat life" height="768" width="1024" msid="83065429" hostid="261"></div>Even those who didn't move to Taiwan with a swanky company relocation package say the lifestyle is more than comfortable.Tuni Nguyen, a 28-year-old from Germany who moved to Taiwan in 2019, said she loves living in Taipei."As a young person or someone to start up a business, Taiwan is ideal because the cost of living is very affordable and the standard you get is still high," Nguyen, who cofounded digital marketing agency <a href="https://arngency.com/">ARN.gency</a> with funding from a local startup accelerator, told Insider.She and her roommate split the $1,000 rent for a two-bedroom apartment in the center of Taipei. "It's so convenient to order food at all times and there's always a 7-Eleven close by if you need anything," Nguyen said. In Copenhagen, where she lived before Taipei, she paid $300 more in monthly rent for a much smaller room.<div type="image" title="taiwan expat life" height="1047" width="1396" msid="83065430" hostid="261"></div>Brian Cragun, a 32-year-old actor and English teacher from the US who's lived in Taiwan for almost 12 years, said he and his boyfriend pay about $720 per month to live in a three-bedroom, two-bedroom apartment with two balconies in central Taipei."We got lucky because we've rented this place for about seven or eight years, so we've had long-term contracts," Cragun said.Beyond housing, public transport is reliable and affordable (a <a href="https://english.metro.taipei/">Taipei metro ticket</a> costs between about $0.75 and $2). And if you avoid pricey Western restaurants, you can get a delicious and affordable local meal for around $5, several expats said.<h2>A renowned healthcare system: $400 to have a baby</h2>One of the best perks of living in Taiwan is the high-quality healthcare that comes at a fraction of the price of countries like the US, expats say.Taiwan has a <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3960712/">single-payer national healthcare system</a> that's known for its accessibility, short waiting times, and low costs. In the Internations expat survey, 96% of participants rated the quality of Taiwan's medical care positively."Healthcare here is really good," Liu, the relocation specialist, told Insider. "A lot of comments I hear are like, 'Wow, my son had a fall on his skateboard and we took him to the emergency room and we're probably in deep trouble. And then for stitches, for X-rays, for everything, it took like three hours and it was only 1,000 NT.' So that's like $30." A visit to the doctor in Taiwan typically costs no more than about $18 including medications, Liu said.Anne Marie Nolan, an American who moved to Taiwan with her husband in 2015, said she paid about $400 for the birth of her daughter in 2018, which included a Caesarean section and a five-day hospital stay. <div type="image" title="taiwan expat life" height="2541" width="3388" msid="83065434" hostid="261"></div>In the US, a country known for having <a href="https://www.msh-intl.com/en/europe/individuals/medical-expenses-abroad-countries-most-expensive.html">some of the world's highest medical expenses</a>, the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-much-does-it-cost-to-have-a-baby-2018-4">average cost of having a baby</a> is $10,808, and that can rise to more than $30,000 when factoring in pre- and post-pregnancy care and complications.Still, <a href="https://www.commonwealthfund.org/international-health-policy-center/countries/taiwan#:~:text=Role%20of%20public%20health%20insurance,approximately%203.4%20percent%20of%20GDP.&amp;text=Taiwan's%20NHI%20is%20a%20predominantly%20premium%2Dbased%20social%20health%20insurance%20system.0system.">Taiwan spends only about 6.4% of its GDP</a> on healthcare, as compared to<a href="https://www.cms.gov/Research-Statistics-Data-and-Systems/Statistics-Trends-and-Reports/NationalHealthExpendData/NationalHealthAccountsHistorical#:~:text=U.S.%20health%20care%20spending%20grew,spending%20accounted%20for%2017.7%20percent."> nearly 18% in the US</a>.<h2>An Asian <keyword id="6354692" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Travel">travel</keyword> hub with untapped treasures close to home</h2>Before the pandemic, many expats used Taiwan as a jumping-off point for regional travel. The island is a 2.5-hour flight to Seoul, two hours and 20 minutes to Manila, and an hour and 35 minutes to Okinawa.In the six years he's lived in Taiwan, Cragun said he's traveled to Thailand multiple times and has found tickets for between $60 and $150 on budget airlines.Though Taiwan's borders have been largely closed for over a year, several expats said they've spent the time getting to know Taiwan better.Michaela Farrell, a 30-year-old from the UK who moved to Taiwan two-and-a-half years ago for her husband's job, said they traveled to Hong Kong and Singapore before COVID-19. After the pandemic hit, their only option was to explore Taiwan itself, which she describes as "underrated."<div type="image" title="taiwan expat life" height="898" width="1198" msid="83065435" hostid="261"></div>"There's so much to do here on such a tiny island," she said. "It's surrounded by mountains. They have beaches in the south and lots of other big cities along the west coast. And then on the east side, there's a little more mountainous kind of terrain."Taiwan is also known for its vibrant <a href="https://www.lonelyplanet.com/a/nar/49bcfbe8-a8df-44f8-a065-e94f6c762144/357551">night markets</a> with cheap and delicious street food, its 15,000 temples, and its <a href="https://loveandroad.com/cycling-taiwan-east-coast-travel-tips/#:~:text=The%20Formosa%20900%20is%20the,drivers%20do%20respect%20the%20cyclists.">extensive cycling networks</a>. And then, of course, there are the people. Almost every expat Insider spoke to gushed about the good nature of the Taiwanese people. In the Internations survey, Taiwan ranked first in the "friendliness" subcategory. "Taiwanese people are super friendly and super willing to try and help out foreigners," Cragun said.<h2>Culture clashes in the workplace</h2>Many of the expats who move to Taiwan work for major global companies like Nike, Danish wind energy company Ørsted, and Corning, an American tech company that makes LCD displays and other products, according to Liu of Relo Network Asia.But some expats said they've found navigating certain cultural differences in Taiwan to be a challenge.Farrell from the UK said the language barrier has been an issue even though both she and her husband take lessons in Mandarin Chinese, Taiwan's most widely spoken language."If you're just going to the supermarket it's not so bad, but if you're trying to go to a train station or if you need to do admin or documents in immigration - or you travel outside of the city - it can be difficult," Farrell said. Nolan, the 32-year-old American who's had two daughters in Taiwan, said she and her husband experienced culture shock for the first time after they had their first daughter in 2018 while living in Kaohsiung City in southern Taiwan."My daughter is very blonde with blue eyes and we struggled a lot with how differently people saw her," Nolan said. "People would follow us taking pictures of her or just not give her a lot of personal space."<div type="image" title="taiwan expat" height="902" width="1200" msid="83065438" hostid="261"></div>Ayush Bagla, a 31-year-old entrepreneur who moved to Taiwan five years ago from Bangalore, India, said he doesn't see Taiwan as welcoming to foreign business owners."I had issues the first two years I tried to join an accelerator program," said Bagla, who's the founder and CEO of dental products company Ackuretta Technologies. "They're like, 'You need to show that you have a Taiwanese cofounder with you.' I'm like, 'What? Why do I need to show that? We're a legally registered business here.'"Bagla said he found the requirement unfair considering about 80% of his employees are Taiwanese.Liu from Relo Network Asia said communication has always been a challenge for expats when they come to Taiwan because the Taiwanese respect a hierarchy in the workplace."People still follow that very highly here in Taiwan, to respect the hierarchy in the meetings," Liu said. "So getting opinions and getting people to share their thoughts is not so easy initially."But once you build a trusting relationship with a Taiwanese person, it becomes much easier to communicate, she said.<h2>A safe haven during the pandemic, but now an uncertain outlook</h2>In early 2020, Nolan and her family were visiting her parents in the US when they started hearing news about a new virus spreading in China."So many people told us, 'Don't go back, don't go back over there,'" Nolan said. "We came back, and then it kind of exploded around the world and it just didn't touch Taiwan. It was so surreal."But until a few weeks ago, pandemic life in Taiwan wasn't too different from pre-pandemic life. People had to <a href="https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4066408">wear masks in many indoor places</a>. But there were no lockdowns or stringent restrictions. Schools were open and people went out to restaurants and bars and went to work.Nguyen said that she was still going out like usual until recently."I went to festivals. I celebrated New Years on a rooftop with hundreds of people," she said. "I went to bars. I went to restaurants. It was like COVID didn't exist."Until May, Taiwan had reported only <a href="https://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/asia/taiwan-struggles-covid-19-testing-backlog-largest-outbreak-14896108">1,128 coronavirus cases and 12 deaths</a>. The island had gone months without any local cases. But now, the virus is spreading in the community again after an <a href="https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4194599">outbreak among several airline pilots</a> who had been staying at a hotel near Taoyuan Airport.<div type="image" title="taiwan covid" height="1664" width="2225" msid="83065439" hostid="261"></div>Taiwan is reporting an <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/world/covid-cases.html">average of 562 new cases per day</a>, according to The New York Times. On Wednesday, it reported <a href="https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3134880/coronavirus-taiwan-seeks-300-missing-covid-positive-people-635">a record 11 COVID-19 deaths</a>. This week, Taiwan <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/taiwan-increases-curbs-covid-19-cases-continue-rise-2021-05-26/">ramped up restrictions</a>, limiting restaurants to takeout only, requiring masks outside, and asking people to stay home whenever possible. Taiwan is struggling with a <a href="https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/east-asia/nine-day-wait-for-covid-19-test-results-leaves-taiwan-in-limbo">backlog of testing</a> and only about <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/japan-considering-providing-astrazenecas-covid-19-vaccine-taiwan-newspaper-2021-05-27/">1% of the population</a> is vaccinated, according to Reuters.Nyugen and Cubero both said they got their first doses of the vaccine in April through a since-discontinued <a href="https://www.cdc.gov.tw/En/Bulletin/Detail/8zNpZS8O1S2D3IIgBYHAhA?typeid=158">program</a> in which people could pay about $20 for their own vaccines.But even as COVID-19 cases in Taiwan rise and vaccination rates remain low, most of the expats Insider spoke to didn't express any pressing desire to leave the island they've made their home. Van Dijk said he and his family are moving back to the Netherlands later this year, but the decision was unrelated to the pandemic and comes after they'd already doubled the length of their expected stay in Taiwan.Others are coming to terms with finding themselves in a situation that's vastly different from what their home countries are currently experiencing."It's so surreal that we spent the last year in a relatively normal situation," Nolan said. "And it's just weird now things are happening more than a year after the rest of the world has had to deal with it."

Taiwan was named the best place to live for expats. Here's what 7 expats said about living abroad on the tiny East Asian island during the pandemic.

coronavirus cases and the total tally stood at 14.35 lakh. Not just the daily cases, but the overall cases have also taken a huge leap in a months' time. India's journey to over 33 lakh cases precisely took six months and twenty-eight days since the emergence of the first case on January 30. On July 17, the country had logged 10 lakh cases, which then doubled to 20 lakh in 20 days, on August 7 and added another 10 lakh on August 23. It has now added 3 lakh cases in four days. As per latest figures released by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, the total caseload stood at 33,10,234 while the death toll rose to 60,472. The number of recoveries also increased to 25,23,771. Recoveries are 3.5 times the active case, which stand at 7,25,991. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare on Thursday said that the early identification through aggressive testing, comprehensive surveillance, and contact tracing, and focus on timely and efficient clinical treatment of patients has ensured speedy recoveries and has also kept the case fatality rate low in some states. Many states and union territories in India have better recovery rate and fatality rate than the national average. The overall recovery rate of the country is 76.24 per cent, while the fatality rate is 1.82 per cent of novel coronavirus patients. There are five states and one union territory -- Delhi, Tamil Nadu, Bihar, Dadar and Nagar Haveli, Haryana, and Gujarat where the recovery rate is more than 80 per cent, while another four have recovery rate more than 70 per cent. The recovery rate was 7.10 per cent on March 25 when the lockdown was imposed and slowly increased to 7.1 per cent during the first lockdown; 11.42 per cent in second; 26.59 in third lockdown and now 41.61 per cent in the last phase of the lockdown. The recovery rate was 63.92 per cent on July 27, exactly a month ago. The national capital was the first state to cross the 90 per cent recovery rate, this month. On Wednesday, however, a sudden-spike brought it down to 89.82 per cent. More than 1.48 lakh people out of the 1.65 lakh infected so far have been declared recovered. The case fatality rate, which is the proportion of people who die from the disease among individuals diagnosed, is below one per cent in Assam, Kerala, Bihar, Odisha, Telangana, Tripura, Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh. Besides this, there is a steady decline in the positivity rate, the percentage of tests that return positive, despite an exponential increase in testing. It has come down to eight per cent from eleven per cent during the first week of August. Another parameter called basic reproduction number or R value which is used to measure the rate at which the infection is spreading, has also decreased in a weeks' time. The value has come down to 1.04 from 1.05 in a week. It was 1.83 in April. The disease is considered to be under control when its value falls below one.
