00:00People in Taiwan are set to get a $330 U.S. dollar cash handout from the government.
00:05That's after the legislature passed an $18 billion special budget on Friday.
00:11Taiwan's cabinet first proposed the special budget back in April
00:14in response to U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs on Taiwanese goods.
00:18The bill also includes funding for defense, infrastructure and social programs.
00:23The opposition-held legislature made several revisions to the bill,
00:26causing it to bounce back and forth between the two government branches.
00:31The universal cash handouts are expected to start in early November.
