The Directorate-General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics (DGBAS), Executive Yuan, announced that the gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate in the first quarter was -3.02 percent, a new low in nearly 14 years. If the forecast for the second, third, and fourth quarters remain unchanged, it may drag down the downward revision of this year's GDP to 1.67 percent.
Taiwan is facing geo-political risks and uncertainties in the global economy, and business investment has become more conservative. The DGBAS predicts that the amount of private fixed investment this year is estimated at NT$5.3 trillion (about US$172 billion), with a real growth rate of -1.13 percent, the first time in the past six years that negative growth was observed.
The National Development Council (NDC) released its business climate comprehensive judgment score of 11 points for March, colored light blue, continuing a streak of five consecutive blues. The NDC originally estimated that the economy would bottom out in April, but now it has changed its view, believing that recovery will likely occur in the third quarter.

國防部公布中國大陸解放軍機及軍艦擾台資訊，其中一架TB-001無人機27日從台灣西南空域進入後繞台一周，似乎刻意包圍飛行，這次是國防部首度公布共軍無人機繞台飛行。學者分析，共軍藉此展現無人機海上長距離飛行能力，日後很可能派遣無人機對我東部戰力保存區進行偵察，讓共軍推進至西太平洋的海空兵力。

The Ministry of National Defense released information on disturbance by People's Liberation Army (PLA) aircraft and warships. One TB-001 un-manned aerial vehicle entered Taiwan's southwest airspace on April 27 and circled Taiwan. Scholars opined that the PLA used this to demonstrate its long-distance flight capabilities of drones at sea. In the future, it is likely to send drones to conduct reconnaissance in Taiwan's Eastern combat reserve area so as to advance the PLA's sea and air forces in the Western Pacific.
