A constitutional court in Taiwan is set to rule on reforms that would give legislators more power. Critics argue it could pose a national security risk, while supporters say it's necessary for government oversight and preventing corruption. The reforms would allow lawmakers to demand documents from government agencies, private businesses, and even individuals, including the military.
The issue has sparked large protests in Taiwan, with concerns about the potential impact on the country's relationship with China. Some fear that expanded legislative powers could be used to leak sensitive information or compromise national security. Others see it as a necessary step towards building a more robust democracy.
