From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Playboy Enterprises said Tuesday it is set to unveil its first shop in Taiwan next month following the launch of its television channel on the island.
The Playboy store in Taipei will be a free-standing three-storey building occupying 2,500 square feet (230 square metres) and will be operated under licence by Zino HK Ltd., the company said without providing financial details.
It was unclear what products the store would sell, but other similar outlets mainly offer Playboy brand-themed fashion items.
Playboy TV was launched in Taiwan in September through the island's leading telecom operator Chunghwa Telecom's digital platform MOD IPTV.
Local media said the company has kicked off a contest to recruit official sales girls for the store with a monthly salary of 100,000 Taiwan dollars (3,230 US) and free model training courses.
