So this month I’ve been spending some time learning Yoruba, just one of the over 500 languages spoken in Nigeria, Africa’s most populous country. I was interested in Yoruba because as a strictly tonal language, Yoruba being pronounced Yorùbá, it’s an amazing challenge to learn to speak and it reminds me a lot of Mandarin Chinese. Then I decided to go and find some Nigerians to practice with and…we had a good time! People were really surprised when I started speaking Yoruba with them. Finally I tried Nigerian food for the first time and it was incredible. Next time, we’ll do this in Nigeria!

"We are very overwhelmed -- the health system is on the verge of collapse."

#Indonesia is battling a surge in #Covid19 cases and the peak is likely yet to come with Eid al-Adha celebrations starting this week.

For weeks now, the fourth most populous country in the world has been reporting thousands of daily cases and hundreds of deaths as it struggles with the highly contagious Delta variant.

Indonesia is now reporting a record number of doctors dying from the virus. 114 doctors died in the first half of July, despite a 95% vaccination rate among health workers.

Indonesia's health care system is in crisis. Indonesia has overtaken India to become Asia's new epicenter of the pandemic.

And families are suffering.

Dino Satria of Save the Children in Indonesia tells me: "I'm worried that we're not seeing the peak yet. So, it will take longer and the crisis will take longer than anyone can imagine and anticipate."

PTT is one of the most open social media platforms in the Chinese language. Though it’s not more populous than Facebook, it’s arguably more impactful than Facebook here in Taiwan. It’s a reflection of Taiwan's spirited democracy, and it’s used heavily as a source for local journalists.

We speak with two INDSR researchers on a year-long project, “A Pilot Study on PTT in the Context of Influence Operations” (批踢踢影響力作戰前導研究）which attempts to identify CCP state actors on the platfor. The researchers are Oddis J.F. Tsai (Policy Analyst at the Division of Defense Strategy and Resources) and Dr. Jui-Ming Hung (Assistant Research Fellow at the Division of Defense Strategy and Resources).

The paper lays out mechanics and - through quantitative analysis - identifies types of suspect behavior on the world’s largest non-commercial, forum-based, open-source online bulletin board system in the Chinese language. This interview was recorded in January 2021 after the paper was published by INDSR.

Today’s host is J.R. Wu - a non-resident advisor at INDSR (Institute for National Defense and Security Research) in Taiwan. Wu is a former journalist with nearly two decades of media experience in the US and Asia. She has led news bureaus for Reuters and Dow Jones.
