"title": "008COMMENT - Rare earths rules necessary for sustainability",
|

"description": "<div></div><p> China on Friday announced tightened rules over the mining and processing of rare earths, extending enhanced regulations to imported minerals and requiring enterprises to report the flow of the strategic materials monthly.</p>\n<p> The rules were released as guidelines on the implementation of the country's rare earth management regulations, which took effect in October.</p>\n<p> The rules, effective immediately, stipulate how government agencies should manage quotas for designated companies and make the flow of rare earth products traceable, according to three departments including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.</p>\n<p> As the MIIT noted, rare earths are important strategic mineral resources, and changes in the industry mean that earlier rules were no longer suitable for current needs.</p>\n<p> Despite that, some still try and misinterpret the move as the latest sign of China's "weaponization" of the strategic items.</p>\n<p> An important reason that they claim this every time the country adjusts its rare earth rules is that they have long taken it for granted that China is "obliged" to sell rare earths for peanuts.</p>\n<p> That was what China did for decades before the mid-2000s when the country's rare earth elements' export prices were so low — a few or a few dozen dollars per kilogram depending on the element — that the prices didn't even cover the production and environmental costs under higher industry standards and pollution-control requirements.</p>\n<p> Rare earth elements, which are called "industrial vitamins", enable huge technological functions, and they are widely applied in the electronics, automotive, energy, defense, aerospace, healthcare and medical tech industries.</p>\n<p> That means China has made tremendous contributions to the high-tech industry's rise in the United States, Japan, the Republic of Korea and some major European countries, all top rare earth elements importers, since it started becoming a major producer, processor and exporter of rare earth-related items in the early 1980s.</p>\n<p> To some extent, it was the large amounts of high-quality rare earth elements China provided at an extremely low price in those years that enabled the fast development of relevant industries that played a pivotal role in these developed countries' fast development since the 1980s.</p>\n<p> Even after China started reforming its rare earths industry about 20 years ago achieving remarkable progress in the refining, separation and purification of rare earth elements and magnet manufacturing, the export price of its rare earth-related items remained markedly lower than that of any other exporters.</p>\n<p> In the past, extensive and unregulated development led to the undervaluation of resources and ecological damage. This unsustainable model not only threatened to deplete the country's natural resource endowment but also posed risks to the long-term stability of the global industry and supply chains.</p>\n<p> Currently, with about 40 percent of the world's known rare earths reserves, China, which holds core know-how on smelting and separating rare earth elements, mines around 70 percent of the materials and processes nearly 90 percent of the world's rare earths.</p>\n<p> China's innovations in rare earths processing technology in the early 21st century have contributed to the development of indispensable modern technologies, such as semiconductors, renewable energy and artificial intelligence.</p>\n<p> But China's contribution — be it the historical one at considerable environmental cost to itself or the current one that comes along with its tech breakthroughs — has long been ignored by some.</p>\n<p> Instead, they try and hijack China's reform of its rare earths industry with their "weaponization" claim as if to ensure the developed economies' access to high-quality, clean and sufficient rare earth elements is an obligation for China. Not to mention some developed countries have implemented discriminatory restrictive export policies in high-tech products and services against China while trying to contain China's high-tech progress by attacking its technology enterprises.</p>\n<p> Despite that, being well aware of the important role it plays in the world's rare earths sector, and hence its responsibility to help sustain the global industry and supply chains, China has never "weaponized" its processing or exports of rare earth elements.</p>\n<p> The series of actions China has taken in recent years to adjust its rules and policies on rare earth-related items have been driven by the need to keep its rare earths industry sustainable.</p>\n<p> The series of breakthroughs China has made in rare earths processing technology since the new century and the improved performances of its rarLine truncated

"description": "<div></div><p> Over the past few weeks, I have watched a pop concert, a talk show, a stage play and several films after dusk, as a large number of performances are readily available in the capital city in the evenings.</p>\n<p> I have had a higher willingness to head outdoors to relax and for entertainment this summer. I'm not alone.</p>\n<p> Industry experts have observed that summer is the most active season for nighttime consumption, as the daylight extends and the weather becomes more suitable in the evenings, encouraging more people to step out for fun activities.</p>\n<p> In comparison, nighttime consumption in spring and autumn is relatively stable, and consumers mainly flock to dining and entertainment venues.</p>\n<p> "Outdoor consumption usually declines in winter due to cold weather, and the flow of people tends to concentrate at indoor venues such as restaurants, cinemas and shopping malls. Still, the overall scale of nighttime indoor consumption is smaller than that in summer," said Hong Yong, an associate research fellow at the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation.</p>\n<p> Besides the launch of more nighttime performances, major scenic spots, amusement parks, museums and zoos have extended their opening hours or introduced special night tours such as light shows, night performances and night markets.</p>\n<p> Night tours have been highly favored by tourists.</p>\n<p> This summer, the overall booking volume for nighttime travel products has increased by 20 percent year-on-year, according to Qunar, a Beijing-based online travel agency.</p>\n<p> In particular, the Yellow Crane Tower, a landmark in Wuhan, Hubei province, presents an immersive light show at night, and the booking volume of admission tickets for the show has doubled over last year. Other night tours in Xi'an, Shaanxi province; Wuzhen, Zhejiang province; and Huangguoshu Waterfall in Guizhou province, have been quite well-received among travelers.</p>\n<p> Meanwhile, with the opening of night sessions at multiple theme parks nationwide, the booking volumes of their nighttime admission tickets have significantly increased.For instance, the search volume for night tours at Happy Valley in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, this summer has surged nine-fold year-on-year, Qunar found.</p>\n<p> Despite the high popularity of the night tourism economy in the country, there are still some challenges and room for improvement.</p>\n<p> For instance, inadequate urban support facilities, early termination of nighttime public transportation, insufficient supply of public services such as lighting and garbage disposal, have affected consumers' willingness to travel at night, according to LeadLeo Research Institute, a market research provider based in Shanghai.</p>\n<p> The sustainable development of nighttime consumption can't be achieved without the support of public services such as transportation, safety, lighting and sanitation, the consultancy said.</p>\n<p> "Different cities should rely on local cultural IP to create differentiated and innovated nighttime consumption scenes. And local governments should lower operational barriers in terms of taxation and venues, and introduce more high-quality businesses to help promote consumption upgrade," said Wang Yijia, an analyst at LeadLeo.</p>\n<p></p>",

"description": "<div></div><img src=\"https://mobile.chinadaily.com.cn/cn/resfile/2025-08-25/017/20250825_017_02_17300.png\" /><p>This Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) hanging scroll by Wang Shiyi captures the busy morning traffic at the Changmen Gate of Suzhou (Jiangsu province) during the 17th century.</p>\n<p> For over 5,000 years, China has anchored its existence in a profound and enduring cultural foundation — an intricate tapestry woven from the threads of ancient wisdom, philosophical insight and historical continuity.</p>\n<p> This cultural bedrock has not merely preserved the nation through dynastic rises and falls; it has actively shaped its identity, its governance and its resilience. From the timeless teachings of Confucius and Laozi to the strategic brilliance of Sun Tzu and the bureaucratic models of imperial administration, China's civilization has drawn strength from a legacy where culture and statecraft are inseparable.</p>\n<p> It is this deep-rooted fusion of intellectual heritage and political order that has enabled China not only to endure, but to flourish across millennia — adapting through time while remaining steadfast to the guiding principles of its civilization, chief among them, harmony and unity.</p>\n<p> Today, as China takes a more active role on the global stage — participating in international politics, cultural exchange and collaborative efforts to address pressing challenges like climate change and regional instability — it becomes increasingly important to bridge the cultural divide that can fuel misunderstanding and doubt.For China's contributions to be fully recognized and respected, the international community must not only acknowledge its rising influence but also develop a deeper understanding of the cultural values and historical wisdom that shape its global outlook.</p>\n<p> This prompts a central question: How do we foster mutual understanding and trust in the face of lingering skepticism? One key path lies in uncovering the rich historical traces of mutual learning that have long existed between civilizations, and in establishing meaningful comparative dimensions that reveal striking parallels in values, governance and philosophical thought.</p>\n<p> Consider the transmission of imagery from the Shijing (Book of Songs), the most revered Confucian classic and a foundational anthology of 305 poems dating from the 11th to 6th centuries BC. Among them, the long poem July — also known as The Life of Peasants — rose to prominence through successive imperial pictorial interpretations, beginning in the Song Dynasty (960-1279).

From the timeless teachings of Confucius and Laozi to the strategic brilliance of Sun Tzu and the bureaucratic models of imperial administration, China's civilization has drawn strength from a legacy where culture and statecraft are inseparable.</p>\n<p> It is this deep-rooted fusion of intellectual heritage and political order that has enabled China not only to endure, but to flourish across millennia — adapting through time while remaining steadfast to the guiding principles of its civilization, chief among them, harmony and unity.</p>\n<p> Today, as China takes a more active role on the global stage — participating in international politics, cultural exchange and collaborative efforts to address pressing challenges like climate change and regional instability — it becomes increasingly important to bridge the cultural divide that can fuel misunderstanding and doubt.For China's contributions to be fully recognized and respected, the international community must not only acknowledge its rising influence but also develop a deeper understanding of the cultural values and historical wisdom that shape its global outlook.</p>\n<p> This prompts a central question: How do we foster mutual understanding and trust in the face of lingering skepticism? One key path lies in uncovering the rich historical traces of mutual learning that have long existed between civilizations, and in establishing meaningful comparative dimensions that reveal striking parallels in values, governance and philosophical thought.</p>\n<p> Consider the transmission of imagery from the Shijing (Book of Songs), the most revered Confucian classic and a foundational anthology of 305 poems dating from the 11th to 6th centuries BC. Among them, the long poem July — also known as The Life of Peasants — rose to prominence through successive imperial pictorial interpretations, beginning in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). In a society where peasants made up the vast majority and agriculture underpinned the state, appreciation for the poem became more than literary: It evolved into a subtle political statement, a reflection of leadership grounded in attentiveness to the lives of the people.</p>\n<p> This same imagery, once a cultural and political emblem within imperial China, eventually crossed continents.Visual interpretations of the cyclical rhythms of tilling and weaving made their way to France where they sparked lively debate at the court of Louis XIV over whether agriculture should serve as the foundation of the nation.</p>\n<p> According to Clarissa von Spee, curator at the Cleveland Museum of Art, it was essential for European rulers to know that these images originated from China — not from artistic fancy — as this authenticity gave their discussions real weight.

It impressed me deeply and made me truly want to become a soldier. So, after my graduation in 2017, I chose to enlist and was sent to the PLA Navy's Marine Corps.</p>\n<p> "In 2019, at our camp, I watched on TV the Oct 1 parade celebrating the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and I felt envious of those taking part in the National Day parade, wondering when I could participate in a parade someday. Now, I am here, training for the coming parade. It feels like my dream is coming true," he told China Daily in a recent interview at a military compound on the northwestern outskirts of Beijing.</p>\n<p> Yao, now an officer of the PLA Navy's Marine Corps, was selected several months ago as one of two members from his company to participate in the parade on Sept 3, which marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War. The event will be the country's 19th military parade since the People's Republic of China was founded in 1949 and the second V-Day parade.</p>\n<p> During the parade on Sept 3, troops — selected members of the PLA and the People's Armed Police Force, as well as China's militia and reserve service — will line up in formations along Chang'an Avenue in Beijing, and they will be reviewed by President Xi Jinping, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission.</p>\n<p> A total of 45 marching soldier units, land weaponry groups and aircraft squadrons are set to take part in the parade.</p>\n<p> Yao's assignment is to work with tens of officers and soldiers picked from across the armed forces to carry honorary flags representing time-honored combat units that fought in the war against Japanese invaders.</p>\n<p> "The flag I will carry in the parade was conferred to an infantry company — the predecessor of my present company — in September 1939 for its soldiers' heroic performance in a fierce battle that eliminated many Japanese aggressors. Actually, the company was established in May 1928 and had distinguished itself in battles even before the 1939 engagement," the veteran marine emphasized.</p>\n<p> "Carrying this flag through Tian'anmen Square means a lot to my company and me. It is a symbol of recognition and acknowledgment of my unit's glorious history and has become a great inspiration to my fellow officers and soldiers. It will be recorded in the company's history book and will definitely generate endless energy to propel us into combat traininLine truncated

The products made locally have been exported to more than 190 countries and regions, according to the porcelain development center of Dehua.</p>\n<p> In the first seven months of this year, the export value of porcelain from Dehua totaled 2.14 billion yuan ($298 million), up 5.06 percent year-on-year, the center said.</p>\n<p> Quanzhou Shunmei Group Co, a major porcelain maker in Dehua, said that it has exported products to more than 100 countries, with exports accounting for 60 to 70 percent of its total business volume. Customers include Walmart, Universal Pictures and Starbucks.</p>\n<p> The tariff disputes between China and the United States have had a certain impact on its export business to the US, while demand from Europe, especially the United Kingdom and Germany, remains robust, the company said.</p>\n<p> "We have been cooperating with some major global corporations for a long time, and we make products for them on an order-based system. We have more than 100 designers at the company," said Zheng Pengfei, general manager of Shunmei Group.</p>\n<p> "The trade disputes are still having some impact on us. While stabilizing exports, we will continue to expand the domestic market," Zheng said.</p>\n<p> Looking back at history, Quanzhou was the starting point of the ancient Maritime Silk Road. In the Song and Yuan dynasties (960-1368), porcelain gradually became the main goods of export.</p>\n<p> Now in Dehua, more than 100,000 people are engaged in work related to porcelain and the number accounts for one-third of the county's total population. So far, the county has set up 54 porcelain promotion and exhibition centers in major cities of markets participating in the Belt and Road Initiative, according to the center.</p>\n<p> "Dehua has over 4,500 porcelain enterprises, and they have been involved in the production of three major types of products, which are artistic porcelain for export, daily-use porcelain like tableware and tea utensils, as well as porcelain carving works by masters," said Kou Wanqiong, deputy director of the center.</p>\n<p> Meanwhile, the county has continued to innovate the sector with advanced technologies. It has launched a research institute that focuses on the research of new materials for making porcelain and has also built the world's first 5G smart factory for producing daily-use porcelain.</p>\n<p> <span>Contact the writers at zhuwenqian@chinadaily.com.cn</span></p>\n<p></p>",

She was desperate for an escape.</p>\n<p> Then, on a whim in March 2023, she scraped together 220 yuan ($30.62) to watch a live show by Li Bo, a female comedian from Shenyang, Liaoning province, who has over 13 million followers on the short-video platform Douyin.</p>\n<p> That night, during the interactive segment, the performer spotted Fang in the audience.</p>\n<p> "What do you do for a living?" She asked Fang, handing the microphone to her, who was sitting in the second row with a mask and looked slightly uneasy.</p>\n<p> "I'm the director of the information center in our village," Fang replied.</p>\n<p> "What kind of information do you handle?" the comedian asked.</p>\n<p> "Oh, things like which family's daughter hasn't returned in two years, who owes money and won't pay it back, or which mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got into another fight. … That's pretty much the kind of news I keep track of," Fang deadpanned.</p>\n<p> The crowd erupted in laughter and applause.</p>\n<p> Fang's quick-witted, humorous improvised answer stole the show, and the clip later went viral, amassing millions of views online.</p>\n<p> Impressed, the comedian invited Fang to join a comedy training session, and even got Fang's travel, accommodation, and training expenses covered.</p>\n<p> That marked the beginning of Fang's journey into becoming a stand-up comedian.</p>\n<p> Stand-up comedy then became Fang's catharsis, not only allowing her to release years of pent-up frustration from her marriage and family life, but finally giving her the courage to walk away from her "toxic 30-year relationship" and start anew.</p>\n<p> In her debut on the aforementioned comedy competition, Fang delivered a hilarious yet touching set about how stand-up comedy empowered her to divorce her husband and build a new life with her two daughters.</p>\n<p> The performance quickly made her a viral sensation.</p>\n<p> Yang Tianzhen, a judge on the show, remarks that Fang embodies the resilient spirit of Chinese women, with strength forged through adversity.</p>\n<p> "She is a precious gem in the stand-up comedy industry," Yang adds.</p>\n<p> Tan Xiaohong, producer of the show, admits she initially had doubts when first encountering Fang's audition tape.</p>\n<p> "Her set was electrifying, a raw account of her life story," she recalls. "But I worried whether that magic could be replicated in the following competition rounds.</p>\n<p> "When we met in person, all my doubts vanished. Her raw authenticity and strong ability to consistently transform life experiences into comedy made casting her an undeniable choice," says Tan.</p>\n<p> Raised in a small village south of Linyi city, Shandong, Fang quit middle school when her family could no longer afford her education.</p>\n<p> "I'd read anything with words on it, even medication instructions. Back then, the only books I could get my hands on were classics. I particularly loved reading Dream of the Red Chamber," Fang recalls in a recent podcast program.</p>\n<p> After leavingLine truncated

She was desperate for an escape.</p>\n<p> Then, on a whim in March 2023, she scraped together 220 yuan ($30.62) to watch a live show by Li Bo, a female comedian from Shenyang, Liaoning province, who has over 13 million followers on the short-video platform Douyin.</p>\n<p> That night, during the interactive segment, the performer spotted Fang in the audience.</p>\n<p> "What do you do for a living?" She asked Fang, handing the microphone to her, who was sitting in the second row with a mask and looked slightly uneasy.</p>\n<p> "I'm the director of the information center in our village," Fang replied.</p>\n<p> "What kind of information do you handle?" the comedian asked.</p>\n<p> "Oh, things like which family's daughter hasn't returned in two years, who owes money and won't pay it back, or which mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got into another fight. … That's pretty much the kind of news I keep track of," Fang deadpanned.</p>\n<p> The crowd erupted in laughter and applause.</p>\n<p> Fang's quick-witted, humorous improvised answer stole the show, and the clip later went viral, amassing millions of views online.</p>\n<p> Impressed, the comedian invited Fang to join a comedy training session, and even got Fang's travel, accommodation, and training expenses covered.</p>\n<p> That marked the beginning of Fang's journey into becoming a stand-up comedian.</p>\n<p> Stand-up comedy then became Fang's catharsis, not only allowing her to release years of pent-up frustration from her marriage and family life, but finally giving her the courage to walk away from her "toxic 30-year relationship" and start anew.</p>\n<p> In her debut on the aforementioned comedy competition, Fang delivered a hilarious yet touching set about how stand-up comedy empowered her to divorce her husband and build a new life with her two daughters.</p>\n<p> The performance quickly made her a viral sensation.</p>\n<p> Yang Tianzhen, a judge on the show, remarks that Fang embodies the resilient spirit of Chinese women, with strength forged through adversity.</p>\n<p> "She is a precious gem in the stand-up comedy industry," Yang adds.</p>\n<p> Tan Xiaohong, producer of the show, admits she initially had doubts when first encountering Fang's audition tape.</p>\n<p> "Her set was electrifying, a raw account of her life story," she recalls. "But I worried whether that magic could be replicated in the following competition rounds.</p>\n<p> "When we met in person, all my doubts vanished. Her raw authenticity and strong ability to consistently transform life experiences into comedy made casting her an undeniable choice," says Tan.</p>\n<p> Raised in a small village south of Linyi city, Shandong, Fang quit middle school when her family could no longer afford her education.</p>\n<p> "I'd read anything with words on it, even medication instructions. Back then, the only books I could get my hands on were classics. I particularly loved reading Dream of the Red Chamber," Fang recalls in a recent podcast program.</p>\n<p> After leaving schLine truncated
