BEIJING, June 5 (Xinhua) -- China has urged the United States to abandon its generalized and excessive use of the national security concept, and to collaborate with all parties in maintaining a rules-based multilateral trading system, the Ministry of Commerce said on Thursday.
At a regular press conference, He Yongqian, spokesperson for the ministry, made the remarks when asked to comment on the U.S. decision to raise tariffs on imported steel, aluminium and their derivative products from 25 percent to 50 percent.
He said that such U.S. moves not only harm others and itself, but also will severely disrupt the stability of global industrial and supply chains.
The United States should abandon the zero-sum mentality, address respective concerns through equal dialogue, and jointly maintain the stability of global industrial and supply chains, He said.

\n \n \n Starting in the autumn semester, primary and middle schools across Beijing will introduce general education on artificial intelligence, with at least eight class hours per academic year, according to a document released by the Beijing Education Commission. Skills related to AI applications will be included in students' comprehensive assessments.\n \n \n
\n \n \n For the new semester, multiple regions across the country have launched special inspections on school bus safety to eliminate potential hazards and ensure the safety of student transportation.\n \n \n
\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Staff members sort out textbooks to be dispatched for the upcoming new semester at a warehouse in Zunhua City, Heibei Province, Aug. 16, 2025.

\n \n \n A primary school in Shanghai has drawn widespread attention after reports revealed it has just 22 students across five classes, but 23 full-time teachers.\n \n \n
\n \n \n According to a local official bulletin published in April, Sanqiao Primary School in Pudong New Area is listed as having five classes with 22 students, giving it a teacher–student ratio of nearly one-to-one. A notice on the school's official WeChat account also stated that only one new first-grade class will be admitted in 2025.\n \n \n
\n \n \n \n The figures quickly went viral, with some netizens describing the setup as a \"luxurious one-on-one tutoring arrangement\n \n \n \n \n \"\n \n \n \n \n , while others criticized it as a waste of educational resources.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n A staff member from the Pudong district government's student enrolment and examination center confirmed that the data about the school was accurate. Every school can only recruit students from their designated catchment areas, and for Sanqiao \"the number of age-appropriate children in the actual catchment area is just this many\", the staff member said.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n The decline in student numbers has been particularly dramatic in Sanqiao's case because several residential communities in the school's catchment area were recently demolished and relocated, the staff member explained.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Education expert Xiong Bingqi, director of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, said Sanqiao's case is mainly the result of several residential communities in the school's catchment area recently undergoing relocation, which does not represent the overall situation in Shanghai.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Xiong rejected the idea that \"having more teachers than students\" means wasting resources. With primary education now expected to balance moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor education, it is unrealistic to expect one or two teachers to cover all subjects, he noted.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Looking ahead, Xiong predicted that more small-scale schools with only a few dozen or around 100 students will emerge in both cities and rural areas. Improving school standards and promoting small-class teaching, he added, should be the way forward.\n \n \n
\n \n \n As the new school year approaches, many parents are increasingly concerned about \"back-to-school syndrome.\"\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n Heading back to school sparks an upswing in anxiety for many children. The average child's school day is packed with potential stressors: separating from parents, meeting academic expectations, managing peer groups, and navigating loud, crowded school hallways and cafeteria, to name just a few of many challenges. That's why it's typical for children to experience some anticipatory anxiety leading up to the new school year — and for parents to notice a rise in worries.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Back-to-school syndrome presents in various ways. Children may suddenly complain of stomachaches or headaches, lose their appetite or become unusually irritable. Some may have trouble sleeping at night, frequently visit the bathroom without a clear reason, or exhibit tic disorders, such as excessive blinking, throat clearing or repetitive mouth sounds.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Experts advise against scolding children when they resist going to school, as it is ineffective. \"Instead of rushing to resolve their anxiety or forcing them to cope, it's crucial to allow children to manage their feelings at their own pace,\" said Lee Moon-soo, a professor of psychiatry at Korea University Guro Hospital. \"If parents acknowledge their concerns and engage in open conversations, children will feel more emotionally secure.\"\n \n \n
\n \n \n Against the backdrop of Qinhuang Lake and the city skyline, the Chengdu World Games officially opened on Thursday night, themed \"Boundless Sports, Countless Wonders\".\n \n \n
\n \n \n The opening ceremony reached its climax when the final two torchbearers - Chinese waterskiers Xu Lu and Alu Xiaobo — glided across the water behind powerboats, carrying torches passed to them by snooker player Ding Junhui and Olympic and TWG trampoline champion Dong Dong. Xu and Alu then lit the main cauldron, designed as a water-shaped spout rising from the lake, as fireworks lit up the sky in a dazzling display.\n \n \n
\n \n \n As the largest-ever edition, the Chengdu World Games has attracted a record 6,679 total participants, including athletes and officials, from 116 countries and regions. The 3,942 athletes will compete in 256 events across 34 sports.\n \n \n
\n \n \n China has sent its largest-ever delegation: 489 members, including 321 athletes. The Chinese athletes, which has also included para-athletes for the first time, are competing in 152 events across 28 sports and making its debut in 12, including cheerleading, flying disc and powerboating.\n \n \n
\n \n \n A video of rabbits bouncing on a trampoline has gone viral on social media, garnering millions of views and shares over platforms. It started on July 27 when a TikTok user posted a video with the caption, \"Just checked the home security cam and… I think we've got guest performers out back!\"\n \n \n
\n \n \n First, as the video starts, pay close attention to two bunnies on the left-hand side of the trampoline. What initially looks like two grey rabbits sitting side-by-side, unnaturally warps into a single bunny, which bounds away.\n \n \n
\n \n \n A similar transformation occurs with two other rabbits around the five-second mark.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n To spot the subtle flaw, focus on the leftmost rabbit as it starts to run across the trampoline. The rabbit jumps up and obscures another rabbit sitting on the back edge, which has vanished by the time the first rabbit lands.\n \n \n
\n \n \n \n A fact-checking platform Snopes stated that\n \n \n \n \n the account that posted the video previously shared at least one video (archived) generated by Google's artificial video generator \"\n \n \n \n \n \n Veo\n \n \n \n \n \", as evidenced by a watermark on the footage.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Despite the subtle hints and the account's unusual behaviour, many people still found themselves falling for the clip.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n Some commenters even joked that they had thought only their parents would fall for fake AI content. One wrote: \"A few years ago I was laughing at my mother for believing AI.\" Another joked: \"I'm getting scammed when I'm older.\"\n \n \n
\n \n \n Experts say there are many reasons why this was so believable\n \n \n \n \n , such as surveillance footage providing a sense of authenticity. Before AI became popular, security footage was viewed as a reliable record, according to CBS News Confirmed.\n \n \n
\n \n \n \n \n \n \n 图源：新浪微博@七三一官方微博截图\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n A Chinese historical drama titled\n \n \n \"731,\"\n \n \n which revisits the horrific World War II-era human experiments conducted by Japan's notorious germ warfare unit 731, is set to premiere on Sept 18, sources associated with the film have said.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n
\n \n \n 二战期间，侵华日军第七三一部队在哈尔滨市平房区以“给水防疫”为名，秘密研制细菌武器，抓捕平民、抗日志士等进行活体实验，成为日本军国主义实施细菌战的铁证。\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Unit 731, a top-secret biological and chemical warfare research base, was established in Harbin, capital of northeast China's Heilongjiang province, and served as the nerve center for Japanese biological warfare in China and Southeast Asia during WWII.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 图源：\n \n \n \n \n \n 新浪微博@七三一官方微博截图\n \n \n \n \n \n \n 据新华社报道，主创团队介绍，影片讲述了当地小贩王永章等人被强行抓入“特设监狱”，侵华日军以“配合健康检查与防疫研究即可换取自由”的虚伪承诺，欺骗他们遭受冻伤实验、毒气实验、活体解剖等极端折磨的故事。\n \n \n
\n \n \n According to the film's director Zhao Linshan, it tells the story of Wang Yongzhang, a local vendor, and others who were imprisoned and lured by false promises of freedom in exchange for cooperation with health checks and disease prevention research.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n Instead, they became victims of brutal medical experiments carried out by the occupying Japanese forces -- including frostbite testing, gas exposure and vivisection.\n \n \n
\n \n \n “日本侵略者给中国人民带来了沉重灾难，这是不容忘却的历史。”侵华日军第七三一部队罪证陈列馆馆长金成民说，\n \n 影片展现绝境下中国人不屈的反抗精神，警醒世人铭记历史、捍卫和平。\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \"This is a history that must never be forgotten,\" said Jin Chengmin, a historical adviser for the film and head of the Exhibition Hall of Evidences of Crime Committed by Unit 731 of the Japanese Imperial Army.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \"The film reveals the inhumane atrocities committed by the invading Japanese army through the eyes of ordinary civilians, while highlighting the unyielding resistance spirit of the Chinese people in the face of despair,\" Jin said. \"It serves as a powerful reminder to safeguard peace.\"\n \n \n \n \n \n 定档消息发出后\n \n \n \n \n 相关话题引发关注\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 网友：真相不能忘！\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n
\n \n \n A master's graduate surnamed Yang in Zhengzhou, Henan province has taken social media by storm with his artistic take on\n \n shaobing\n \n (Chinese flatbread), amassing over 400,000 followers within just two months.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Yang, a young postgraduate from North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power, started a\n \n shaobing\n \n business after quitting his previous job. Using just a utility knife, he sculpts the dough into elaborate shapes ranging from firearms like Desert Eagles to popular cartoon characters such as Labubu and Hello Kitty.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n His stall has become particularly popular among children, who jokingly refer to it as a \"flour arsenal\". Daily queues form as soon as he opens for business, with some elderly customers reportedly waiting up to two hours to buy his creations for their grandchildren.\n \n
\n \n What began as a custom request from a child has blossomed into a viral phenomenon, with each piece meticulously hand-carved using only a utility knife — a skill he attributes to the spatial imagination honed during his engineering studies.\n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n Remarkably, Yang prices each artistic flatbread at just 1 yuan ($0.14), despite their intricate designs. \"I initially sold them for 3 to 5 yuan but lowered the price to make them affordable for children,\" he explained.\n \n
\n \n \n His Douyin bio — \"Unemployed civil engineering grad selling\n \n shaobing\n \n \" — underscores the unconventional career pivot that has sparked heated debate online.\n \n \n
\n \n While many applaud his creativity and defiance of \"elite job\" stereotypes, critics question whether street vending justifies his education. Undeterred, Yang sees his venture as liberation. \"Traditional civil engineering didn't suit me,\" he shared, adding that livestreaming and content creation now fuel his entrepreneurial ambitions. His story resonates with a growing cohort of Chinese youth redefining success beyond conventional career tracks.\n \n
\n \n \n \n Dead to Rights\n \n \n \n \n \n ,\n \n \n a film set during the Nanjing Massacre,\n \n \n \n \n \n opened in domestic theaters on July 25\n \n \n \n \n \n .\n \n \n \n \n Marking the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45), the film revisits one of the most barbaric episodes of World War II through the perspective of a group of unsung heroes.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Set against the Nanjing Massacre, the film follows a group of civilians sheltering in a photo studio.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n Forced to develop a Japanese military photographer's film to survive, they accidentally uncover photographic proof of the atrocities. Initially focused on mere survival, they ultimately risk everything to preserve the evidence and expose the war crimes.\n \n \n
\n \n \n The most powerful core of this film lies in its tearing open the veil of history, allowing me an outsider to viscerally empathize wth the unimaginable suffering endured by the Chinese nation during the catastraphe. It doesn't shy away from the darkness, nor does it gloss over the pain. It confronts the nation's scars with immense artistic courage.\n \n \n
\n \n \n China's 2025 summer box office, including presales, exceeded 5 billion yuan on Sunday. Daily box office takings have remained above 100 million yuan for 10 consecutive days. On Saturday alone, ticket sales hit 293 million yuan, setting a new single-day high for this year's summer movie season.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Leading the charts is Universal's \"Jurassic World Rebirth,\" with 541 million yuan in ticket sales, followed by Chinese comedy \"The Lychee Road,\" which has grossed 468 million yuan. Other top performers include Japanese animated movie \"Detective Conan: One-eyed Flashback,\" Peter Chan's crime drama \"She's Got No Name\" and the sports film \"F1 The Movie\" starring Brad Pitt.\n \n \n
\n \n \n \n On Tuesday, the United States announced a decision to withdraw from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) by the end of December 2026. This marks the third time Washington has exited UNESCO.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n According to a statement by the US State Department, the withdrawal was prompted by what Washington perceived as UNESCO's tendency to \"advance divisive social and cultural causes,\" particularly regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n The US exit will take effect at the end of December 2026.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n Audrey Azoulay, director-general of UNESCO expressed regret over the US decision, calling it inconsistent with the fundamental principles of multilateralism.\n \n \n
\n \n \n UNESCO said the US exit was regrettable but came as no surprise. \"However regrettable, this announcement was expected, and UNESCO has prepared for it,\" Azoulay said in a statement.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n \"We have implemented major structural reforms and diversified our funding sources. Thanks to the efforts made by the Organization since 2018, the decline in US financial contributions has been effectively offset,\" she stated.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n Earlier Tuesday afternoon, French President Emmanuel Macron expressed on his X account France's \"unwavering support\" for UNESCO. He called UNESCO a \"universal guardian of science, the ocean, education, culture, and world heritage.\"\n \n \n
\n \n \n \n France, as the host country and a founding member of UNESCO, regrets the US decision to quit UNESCO, the spokesperson of the country's foreign ministry said on Tuesday.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n \n S\n \n \n \n ince Donald Trump's second term in office started early this year, the Trump administration had announced its withdrawal from the Paris Agreement on climate change, the World Health Organization, and the United Nations Human Rights Council.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Health authorities said all affected children received treatment, with nearly all now discharged after their blood lead levels dropped by around 40 percent on average. The government is covering medical costs and has set up a monitoring program to track the children's recovery.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Seventeen officials have been placed under disciplinary investigation, and 10 others, including senior health and education officials in Tianshui city and its Maiji district, Gansu province, face formal accountability procedures, according to a report released on Sunday.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n Authorities said the kindergarten was operating without a license and that local education and market supervision departments failed to carry out oversight. Some officials are suspected of accepting bribes and favors from the kindergarten's investor. Disciplinary and criminal investigations have been launched against officials, including the head of the provincial health commission and the mayor of Tianshui.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Authorities found that the kindergarten's management had instructed staff to add brightly colored but inedible industrial pigments to foods such as corn rolls and jujube cakes (steamed buns), to make them look more appealing to children and parents.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n Two samples from Peixin — a tricolor red date sponge cake served at breakfast and a corn roll with sausage served at dinner — failed to meet food safety standards. The samples contained lead levels of 1,052 milligrams per kilogram and 1,340 milligrams per kilogram, respectively, far above the national limit of 0.5 milligram per kilogram.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n On Sunday, officials revealed in a report that six had been arrested on suspicion of producing toxic and harmful food.\n \n \n
\n \n \n AI hallucination occurs when an AI model generates false or illogical information that is not based on real data or events, but is presented as fact. Hallucinations can lead to significant consequences when people use AI for tasks with the potential for high-stakes consequences.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Launched by Fudan University and sponsored by United Nations Development Program (UNDP) in China, the Youth Innovation Competition on Global Governance (YICGG) is an international competition that encourages youths from around the world to develop innovative global governance solutions.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Apart from having the required curriculum, Science and Technology Branch of\n \n \n \n \n Beijing Academy\n \n \n \n \n focus more on teaching science and technology. The school is guided jointly by the\n \n \n \n \n Beijing Academy\n \n \n \n \n Educational Group and five nearby universities.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n With the five universities giving students access to their labs and arranging for lectures by their professors, the school aims to rear talents interested in science and technology.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Faced with the challenges of the economic globalization, where cross-cultural dialogue has an important place, education is booming increasingly globalized.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n Ever since the concept of Education for International Understanding was proposed by UNESCO, this dialogue has been highlighted by the government.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n The Ministry of Education of China has repeatedly pointed out that the development of core competencies for Chinese students is required to be in line with the world education reform, and strengthens the international competitiveness of China's education.\n \n \n
\n \n \n \n Recently, an influencer launched a creative writing challenge where participants were randomly assigned past national college entrance exam essay prompts. A construction worker was assigned\n \n \n \n \n \"My Mother\"—the 1957 gaokao composition topic.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n \n He wrote:\n \n \n \n \n \"The grass on my mother's grave turns green\n \n \n \n \n ,\n \n \n \n \n then yellow\n \n \n \n \n ;\n \n \n \n \n yellow\n \n \n \n \n ,\n \n \n \n \n then green—just like my longing. Year after year, it never fades.

\n \n \n \n When asked about the essay, the worker\n \n \n \n \n ,\n \n \n \n \n surnamed An,\n \n \n \n \n said: \"\n \n \n \n \n This composition reflects\n \n \n \n \n my family's truth—it'\n \n \n \n \n s my own\n \n \n \n \n lived experience.\"\n \n \n \n \n He recalled how his mother cared for him and his seven siblings. \"\n \n \n \n \n The prompt '\n \n \n \n \n My Mother'\n \n \n \n \n felt deeply moving,\"\n \n \n \n \n he explained. \"\n \n \n \n \n That's what compelled me to pour my heart into this writing.\"\n \n \n \n
\n \n This year 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.\n \n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n Today, July 7, is etched in history with the Lugou Bridge Incident (1937) in Beijing, when Japanese troops attacked Lugou Bridge (Marco Polo Bridge) and the defending Chinese troops rose to fight the enemy. The event triggered China's full-scale war of resistance against Japanese aggression, also a main Eastern theater of the World Anti-Fascist War.\n \n
\n \n \n Japan has never fully reflected on its aggressive acts and war crimes before and during World War II. Right-wing forces have repeatedly downplayed or glorified this history, promoting revisionist narratives that blur public understanding of World War II.\n \n \n
\n \n \n A primary school in Shanghai has drawn widespread attention after reports revealed it has just 22 students across five classes, but 23 full-time teachers.\n \n \n
\n \n \n According to a local official bulletin published in April, Sanqiao Primary School in Pudong New Area is listed as having five classes with 22 students, giving it a teacher–student ratio of nearly one-to-one. A notice on the school's official WeChat account also stated that only one new first-grade class will be admitted in 2025.\n \n \n
\n \n \n \n The figures quickly went viral, with some netizens describing the setup as a \"luxurious one-on-one tutoring arrangement\n \n \n \n \n \"\n \n \n \n \n , while others criticized it as a waste of educational resources.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n A staff member from the Pudong district government's student enrolment and examination center confirmed that the data about the school was accurate. Every school can only recruit students from their designated catchment areas, and for Sanqiao \"the number of age-appropriate children in the actual catchment area is just this many\", the staff member said.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n The decline in student numbers has been particularly dramatic in Sanqiao's case because several residential communities in the school's catchment area were recently demolished and relocated, the staff member explained.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Education expert Xiong Bingqi, director of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, said Sanqiao's case is mainly the result of several residential communities in the school's catchment area recently undergoing relocation, which does not represent the overall situation in Shanghai.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Xiong rejected the idea that \"having more teachers than students\" means wasting resources. With primary education now expected to balance moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor education, it is unrealistic to expect one or two teachers to cover all subjects, he noted.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Looking ahead, Xiong predicted that more small-scale schools with only a few dozen or around 100 students will emerge in both cities and rural areas. Improving school standards and promoting small-class teaching, he added, should be the way forward.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Against the backdrop of Qinhuang Lake and the city skyline, the Chengdu World Games officially opened on Thursday night, themed \"Boundless Sports, Countless Wonders\".\n \n \n
\n \n \n The opening ceremony reached its climax when the final two torchbearers - Chinese waterskiers Xu Lu and Alu Xiaobo — glided across the water behind powerboats, carrying torches passed to them by snooker player Ding Junhui and Olympic and TWG trampoline champion Dong Dong. Xu and Alu then lit the main cauldron, designed as a water-shaped spout rising from the lake, as fireworks lit up the sky in a dazzling display.\n \n \n
\n \n \n As the largest-ever edition, the Chengdu World Games has attracted a record 6,679 total participants, including athletes and officials, from 116 countries and regions. The 3,942 athletes will compete in 256 events across 34 sports.\n \n \n
\n \n \n China has sent its largest-ever delegation: 489 members, including 321 athletes. The Chinese athletes, which has also included para-athletes for the first time, are competing in 152 events across 28 sports and making its debut in 12, including cheerleading, flying disc and powerboating.\n \n \n
\n \n \n A master's graduate surnamed Yang in Zhengzhou, Henan province has taken social media by storm with his artistic take on\n \n shaobing\n \n (Chinese flatbread), amassing over 400,000 followers within just two months.\n \n \n
\n \n \n Yang, a young postgraduate from North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power, started a\n \n shaobing\n \n business after quitting his previous job. Using just a utility knife, he sculpts the dough into elaborate shapes ranging from firearms like Desert Eagles to popular cartoon characters such as Labubu and Hello Kitty.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n His stall has become particularly popular among children, who jokingly refer to it as a \"flour arsenal\". Daily queues form as soon as he opens for business, with some elderly customers reportedly waiting up to two hours to buy his creations for their grandchildren.\n \n
\n \n What began as a custom request from a child has blossomed into a viral phenomenon, with each piece meticulously hand-carved using only a utility knife — a skill he attributes to the spatial imagination honed during his engineering studies.\n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n Remarkably, Yang prices each artistic flatbread at just 1 yuan ($0.14), despite their intricate designs. \"I initially sold them for 3 to 5 yuan but lowered the price to make them affordable for children,\" he explained.\n \n
\n \n \n His Douyin bio — \"Unemployed civil engineering grad selling\n \n shaobing\n \n \" — underscores the unconventional career pivot that has sparked heated debate online.\n \n \n
\n \n While many applaud his creativity and defiance of \"elite job\" stereotypes, critics question whether street vending justifies his education. Undeterred, Yang sees his venture as liberation. \"Traditional civil engineering didn't suit me,\" he shared, adding that livestreaming and content creation now fuel his entrepreneurial ambitions. His story resonates with a growing cohort of Chinese youth redefining success beyond conventional career tracks.\n \n
\n \n \n \n On Tuesday, the United States announced a decision to withdraw from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) by the end of December 2026. This marks the third time Washington has exited UNESCO.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n According to a statement by the US State Department, the withdrawal was prompted by what Washington perceived as UNESCO's tendency to \"advance divisive social and cultural causes,\" particularly regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n The US exit will take effect at the end of December 2026.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n Audrey Azoulay, director-general of UNESCO expressed regret over the US decision, calling it inconsistent with the fundamental principles of multilateralism.\n \n \n
\n \n \n UNESCO said the US exit was regrettable but came as no surprise. \"However regrettable, this announcement was expected, and UNESCO has prepared for it,\" Azoulay said in a statement.\n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n
\n
\n \n \n \n \"We have implemented major structural reforms and diversified our funding sources. Thanks to the efforts made by the Organization since 2018, the decline in US financial contributions has been effectively offset,\" she stated.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n Earlier Tuesday afternoon, French President Emmanuel Macron expressed on his X account France's \"unwavering support\" for UNESCO. He called UNESCO a \"universal guardian of science, the ocean, education, culture, and world heritage.\"\n \n \n
\n \n \n \n France, as the host country and a founding member of UNESCO, regrets the US decision to quit UNESCO, the spokesperson of the country's foreign ministry said on Tuesday.\n \n \n \n
\n \n \n \n S\n \n \n \n ince Donald Trump's second term in office started early this year, the Trump administration had announced its withdrawal from the Paris Agreement on climate change, the World Health Organization, and the United Nations Human Rights Council.\n \n \n

President Xi Jinping's announcement of an updated climate action plan under the landmark 2015 Paris Agreement underscores China's unprecedented ambition and steadfast commitment in addressing climate change, providing much-needed confidence to global climate efforts, experts said.
\n
In a video speech to the United Nations Climate Summit 2025 held in New York on Wednesday, Xi said that China will, by 2035, reduce economy-wide net greenhouse gas emissions by 7 to 10 percent from peak levels, while striving to do even better.
\n
The country also aims to increase the share of non-fossil fuels in total energy consumption to over 30 percent and expand the installed capacity of wind and solar power to more than six times the 2020 levels, bringing the total to 3,600 gigawatts, he said.
\n
By that time, Xi added, China's total forest stock volume will exceed 24 billion cubic meters, and new energy vehicles will dominate new vehicle sales.
\n
China's national carbon emissions trading market will be expanded to cover major high-emission sectors, and a climate-adaptive society will be basically established, he said.
\n
The targets Xi announced are inscribed in China's new Nationally Determined Contribution, or NDC, part of a climate action plan under the Paris accord to cut greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate impacts.
\n
Under the 2015 pact, which aims to keep the rise in global temperatures this century well below 2 C above preindustrial levels while pursuing efforts to limit it to 1.5 C, each party must establish an NDC and update it every five years.
\n
Zhang Haibin, associate dean of Peking University's School of International Studies, said that China's NDC update once again sends a strong and clear signal that the country is an active participant, contributor and trailblazer in global climate governance.
\n
The announcement comes as climate governance faces multiple internal and external challenges, heightening concerns and diminishing confidence in the international community, Zhang said.
\n
He noted that within the global process, US President Donald Trump announced the US' withdrawal from the Paris Agreement earlier in 2025 and adopted a series of policies opposing action on climate change, severely disrupting global governance and creating significant uncertainty.
\n
He also pointed to adverse impacts from intensifying geopolitical conflicts and frequent international tensions. Such crises, including the Ukraine conflict, have diverted attention away from the climate challenge, reduced resources to address it and further undermined confidence in global climate governance, Zhang said.
\n
"At this moment, confidence is incredibly important and valuable," he said.
\n
In this context, China's new NDC shows its active stance and firm commitment to advancing global climate governance, which will significantly boost the international community's confidence, he said.
\n
A statement from the National Center for Climate Change Strategy and International Cooperation said that the NDC update represents the first time China has proposed a comprehensive set of post-2030 climate targets encompassing the entire economy and aiming for net reductions across all greenhouse gases.
\n
2030 marks the time before which China aims to peak its carbon dioxide emissions.
\n
The statement said, by 2035, China's net greenhouse gas emissions are projected to fall by more than 1 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent from peak levels, exceeding the combined reductions achieved by the US and the European Union in the five years after their respective peaks.
\n
Aligning with emissions reduction pathways required to realize targets under the Paris Agreement, China's new NDC shows unprecedented ambition and strength, and also provides guidance for industrial and technological development over the next decade, the center said.
\n
"China has also vowed to strive to do better if conditions permit. This reflects a more proactive and determined strategic resolve," it emphasized.
\n
Wang Can, director of the Joint Pollution Control and Carbon Reduction Research Center at Tsinghua University's Institute for Carbon Neutrality, said the aggregated ambition of current NDCs is far from sufficient to meet the targets under the Paris Agreement. He was speaking at a forum that saw his institute unveil the 2025 Global Carbon Neutrality Annual Progress Report.
\n
As of the report's publication, 48 countries had submitted their NDC updates, he noted.
\n
"If all countries fully implement their NDCs, global emissions could be reduced by — 1 to 7 percent by 2030 and 4 to 13 percent by 2035 compared to 2019 levels, far from the Paris Agreement aligned mitigation pathway," he said.
\n
According to the 2025 report, the total annual funding needs of developing nations are approximately $470 billion, but the international climate finance they actually receive is about $35 billion.
\n
It said that only eight developed countries have currently met their 2025 funding commitments, and the withdrawal of the US from the Paris Agreement puts further pressure on addressing the overall funding gap.
\n
"Meeting developing countries' need for support can reduce 9 percent of the ambition gap, which is the most straightforward and predictable way to promote global carbon neutrality progress," he said.

Premier Li Qiang has underlined the need for Beijing and Washington to find the right way to get along with each other and strive to achieve common prosperity through mutual success.
\n
Li made the remarks in New York on Thursday when meeting with friendly organizations in the United States, including representatives from the US-China Business Council, the National Committee on US-China Relations, the US Chamber of Commerce and the Council on Foreign Relations, as well as scholars and business leaders, on the sidelines of the general debate of the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly.
\n
Li said that China-US relations are the most important bilateral relations in the world, and the two countries can and should be partners and friends. As the world's two major countries, they should respect each other, coexist in peace, and pursue win-win cooperation, he added.
\n
He highlighted economic and trade relations as an important component of bilateral ties, saying that closer economic and trade cooperation between China and the US will benefit both countries and the world at large.
\n
The premier emphasized that China is confident in its ability to maintain stable and healthy economic development to create more opportunities for businesses from all countries, including US enterprises.
\n
He pledged that no matter how the external environment changes, China will do its utmost to provide greater certainty for the development of foreign businesses.
\n
China will always work with the US side to jointly promote the stabilization and improvement of bilateral economic and trade ties, on the basis of equality, respect and mutual benefit, while upholding a constructive and responsible attitude, he said.
\n
In the meantime, Li said, China will always focus on development and promote the steady growth of its own economy.
\n
China will actively respond to the concerns of foreign businesses and help them to resolve practical difficulties, in order to ensure that foreign businesses feel at ease when operating and developing in the country, he said.
\n
The meeting came following the telephone conversation between President Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump on Sept 19, the third time both leaders talked over the phone this year, as both countries strive to stabilize their relationship.
\n
Sean Stein, president of the US-China Business Council, said that Thursday's meeting with the Chinese premier was an important opportunity to highlight the primary concerns of the US business community in China and to discuss the need for progress on longstanding issues affecting trade and investment.
\n
The National Committee on US-China Relations believes that forthright dialogue between American business, policy, and civic leaders and senior Chinese government leaders fosters mutual understanding and creates opportunities to promote US interests, according to a press release the committee issued after the meeting.
\n
Also on Thursday, Vice-Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu met with US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau in New York, with both sides engaging in frank, in-depth and constructive exchanges of views on China-US relations and international and regional issues of mutual concern.

\n
Sean Stein, president of the US-China Business Council, said that Thursday's meeting with the Chinese premier was an important opportunity to highlight the primary concerns of the US business community in China and to discuss the need for progress on longstanding issues affecting trade and investment.
\n
The National Committee on US-China Relations believes that forthright dialogue between American business, policy, and civic leaders and senior Chinese government leaders fosters mutual understanding and creates opportunities to promote US interests, according to a press release the committee issued after the meeting.
\n
Also on Thursday, Vice-Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu met with US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau in New York, with both sides engaging in frank, in-depth and constructive exchanges of views on China-US relations and international and regional issues of mutual concern.
\n
Ma emphasized that the Taiwan question is China's domestic affairs and concerns China's core interests. He urged the US to adhere to the one-China policy, fulfill its political commitments, and take concrete actions to maintain peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
The Nile River, eternal and majestic, carves its path through endless desert landscapes before surrendering to the Mediterranean in North Egypt. Along its fertile black banks, ancient Egyptian civilization blossomed, a land of awe and mystery where the world's first scripts were etched, some of the earliest cities rose, and belief in eternity gave shape to temples and tombs.
\n
Today, this river of history flows into a new chapter, as China and Egypt join hands to guard the legacies of their ancient civilizations. Together they are breathing new life into weathered stones and faded murals, through joint archaeological digs, relic restorations and cultural exhibitions.
\n
In this dialogue across time, two cradles of human wisdom affirm a shared belief that the diversity of civilizations is a treasure to be cherished, and that protecting the past is a way of inspiring the future, experts said.
\n
From the summer of 2024 to the summer of 2025, Shanghai Museum staged the landmark exhibition On Top of the Pyramid: The Civilization of Ancient Egypt. Showcasing 788 rare artifacts, the 13-month event drew an impressive 2.78 million visitors. The exhibition presented over 400 newly unearthed artifacts, underscoring the rich fruits of recent China-Egypt joint archaeological projects.
\n
In recent years, China and Egypt have steadily deepened archaeological cooperation. In 2018, following a protocol between Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, China's first full archaeological mission in Egypt began excavations at the Montu Temple ruins in Luxor's Karnak Temple Complex.
\n
In parallel, joint efforts are underway to nominate China's Baiheliang Ancient Hydrological Inscription and Egypt's Rawda Island Nilometer as World Cultural Heritage sites of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
\n
Meanwhile, teams have begun digitally documenting thousands of ancient coffins in Saqqara — a sprawling necropolis of ancient Egyptian royalty — contributing to both preservation and scholarship.
\n
Yan Haiying, a professor of history at Peking University, said that China and Egypt, both heirs to ancient civilizations, stand as mirrors to one another. Comparative research between these two cultural giants not only deepens mutual understanding, but also enriches each side's sense of identity and historical self-awareness.
\n
"The exhibition of ancient Egyptian civilization has sparked a cultural wave in China. In the past, Egypt-themed shows here were often canned exhibitions curated in the West and staged mainly for profit. This time, however, Shanghai Museum achieved a major breakthrough, taking the lead in curating independently and working hand in hand with Egyptian counterparts. Without the joint archaeology of China and Egypt, these newly unearthed relics could never have come to China," Yan said.
\n
She said ancient China and Egypt, both nourished by great rivers, shared striking commonalities as agrarian civilizations. Each cultivated cosmologies and philosophies rooted in the idea of harmony between heaven and humanity, and in prayers for blessings in the afterlife. Both sought a unified national order and revered the ideal of living in balance with nature.
\n
"Therefore, before the relics of ancient Egypt, Chinese hearts stir with a quiet resonance: two great civilizations, though distant, recognizing one another across the span of time," Yan said.
\n
Xue Jiang, a researcher at the World Art History Institute of Shanghai International Studies University, said that ancient Egyptian and Chinese civilizations share similar characteristics, and these cultural parallels have laid a strong foundation for the two nations to deepen cooperation in preserving their rich heritage.
\n
Xue and his colleagues carried out field research in Egypt on the digitization of newly unearthed artifacts, which led to an agreement with Egyptian partners to launch a series of long-term collaborative projects. The first initiative, which focused on the investigation, cataloging, database creation and joint publication of artifacts discovered in Saqqara, was designated as a pilot, testing new methods and technologies for heritage preservation.
\n
"Following our research, we will publish findings in Arabic, Chinese and English, and establish a trilingual database. Looking ahead, we plan to set up joint laboratories and apply China's most advanced archaeological technologies to help Egypt build a modern archaeological system," he said.
\n
Both experts said strengthened cooperation between China and Egypt in heritage protection will not only deepen cultural exchanges, but also contribute to safeguarding the diversity of world civilizations.
\n
"Every civilization shines with its own brilliance, and all stand equal, and this forms the very foundation of dialogue and exchange. As heirs to these legacies, we bear the responsibility of safeguarding world heritage and preserving the shared treasures of human civilization," Xue said.
\n
Yan said that with each newly unearthed artifact, Egyptian national pride swelled and confidence soared, inspiring renewed efforts to safeguard their cultural treasures and celebrate their rich history.
\n
"Understanding one's past is key to fostering one's cultural confidence. China and Egypt should work together to safeguard their shared historical and cultural heritage, enhance the protection and transmission of cultural relics, and jointly preserve the collective memory of history," she said.
\n
Xue added: "Civilizations are neither superior nor inferior; they are united by the shared aspiration to learn from one another, collaborate and achieve mutual benefit. In reflecting on civilization, we must not only examine its authenticity, but also seek a collective human memory and empathy that transcend time and space."

China has made continuous efforts to turn demographic dividend into "talent dividend" during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-25) by cultivating technical professionals, skilled workers and invigorating people to take up new professions arising from industrial transformation, said senior officials.
\n
Wang Xiaoping, minister of human resources and social security, summarized the nation's progress in developing human resources and training skilled workers in the past few years at a news conference in Beijing on Friday. She said that China, at present, has over 80 million technical professionals and 220 million skilled workers, of whom around 72 million are highly skilled.
\n
The ministry has recognized 72 new professions during the period — including generative artificial intelligence system operator, elderly care service provider and cross-border e-commerce operator — and published 328 national profession standards to improve the working environment and unleash people's passion for exploring new skills.
\n
"Cultivating skilled workers is of great importance to developing a quality workforce. The skilled have offered strong and solid support to China's self-reliance in developing high technology, and have also promoted the modernization of the industrial system," Wang said.
\n
Noting the success in producing such a large population of skilled workers and technical professionals, the minister said these results are the fruit of the nation's efforts to organize skills training programs, effective communication between companies and vocational schools as to their modes of producing skilled talent, besides a better skills level rating system.
\n
She disclosed that during the Plan period, government-subsidized skills training programs have been provided for enterprise employees and migrant workers over 42 million times and 31 million times, respectively, noting that vocational schools and companies have also been in closer cooperation to tailor the teaching content to be a better fit for market needs.
\n
Wang said that about 44 million people have gained authorized skills level qualifications since 2021 and 6,000-plus have been titled senior skilled workers and chief technical engineers thanks to the optimized State-level rating system for the skilled in recent years.
\n
She pointed out that skilled workers and technicians have gained increased social status and honors during the period, and the government has intensified efforts to organize skills competitions to give workers and students a stage to show their talent.
\n
Citing the recently concluded third national skills competition in Zhengzhou, Henan province, the minister said it attracted nearly 200,000 people watching both on-site and online, with topics online viewed 1.2 million times, heightening the public's recognition of the skilled.
\n
"Enhancing skills training can also help ease China's employment problem of imbalance in human resources supply and market demand," Yan Qinghui, vice-minister of human resources and social security, emphasized at the news conference.
\n
He announced that the ministry will use three years — 2025 to 2027 — to train 30 million people for industries in dire need of skilled workers including AI, digital economy and elderly services.
\n
Other progresses were also highlighted. The ministry said that as of the end of August, about 59.21 million people have landed jobs in urban areas, exceeding the target of 55 million set in the 14th Five-Year Plan. The surveyed unemployment rate in urban areas averaged 5.3 percent in past four years, which is lower than the set target of 5.5 percent.
\n
The nation's basic pension insurance has covered 1,072 million people.

The 5th World Congress of Biosphere Reserves recently concluded in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, with practical visions for the next 10 years, advocating for harmony between human and nature and strengthening global cooperation to advance environmental restoration and conservation worldwide.
\n
The congress, themed "Shaping a Sustainable Future for People and Nature", was held for the first time in Asia. Convened by UNESCO every 10 years or so, the four-day congress drew nearly 4,000 representatives from more than 150 countries, hitting a record high with the widest representation of participating countries, industries and fields.
\n
"The congress arrives at a critical moment when biodiversity loss, climate change and human well-being face urgent challenges," said Antonio Abreu, director of the Division of Ecological and Earth Sciences at UNESCO, at a news conference after the closing ceremony on Thursday.
\n
Abreu, also secretary of the Man and the Biosphere Programme of UNESCO, said the congress is "a milestone both in logistics and in vision", emphasizing China's leadership in the area by establishing one of the largest national networks of biosphere reserves, many of which serve as global models.
\n
"Through investments in scientific research, capacity building and community involvement, China enhances the MAB Programme. Its actions embody the ecological civilization vision, inspiring both national and international progress and fostering South-South cooperation," he added.
\n
"The congress produced two landmark outcome documents: the Hangzhou Strategic Action Plan for the MAB Programme and the Hangzhou Declaration," Abreu said. "Together, these provide a global roadmap for strengthening the MAB network and reaffirming the role of biosphere reserves as learning sites for sustainable development."
\n
Abreu said that the action plan offers a practical roadmap for the next decade, emphasizing science-policy interfaces, digital innovation and youth involvement as transformation drivers. The declaration, as a significant political statement, underscores the need to integrate indigenous people, women and youth into decision-making, ensuring their voices are heard alongside governments, international organizations and local communities.
\n
Han Qunli, former secretary of the MAB Programme, said that compared to previous outcomes, the new documents have made significant strides in strategic integration by establishing a collaborative implementation framework for multilateral agendas.
\n
Han mentioned the Hangzhou Declaration, which fully considers the goals and tasks of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, outlining 37 specific actions to enhance coordination and effectiveness in achieving global sustainability and biodiversity goals.
\n
Liu Weidong, director of the Bureau of International Cooperation, Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that to implement the documents, China plans to take further actions in the advancement of biosphere reserves.
\n
"Over the next 10 years, we plan to have at least one biosphere reserve in every province, autonomous region and municipality," Liu said, adding that China now boasts 34 biosphere reserves across 20 provinces and autonomous regions, the highest number in Asia.
\n
Liu pointed out that China's progress in developing biosphere reserves over the past decade relied heavily on technological support, including satellite remote sensing, infrared imaging, environmental DNA techniques, UAVs, big data and artificial intelligence. "China aims to further enhance the intelligent, refined and scientific management of these reserves, aligning with the requirements of the Hangzhou Declaration," he added.
\n
He also emphasized the importance of global cooperation in advancing environmental governance and sustainable development. China plans to take an active part in creating regional and thematic networks, developing the existing World Network of Mountain Biosphere Reserves, and fostering international collaboration to establish networks for less-studied ecosystem types, such as those in oases and marine environments.

China's 15th scientific expedition to the Arctic Ocean concluded on Friday as the last members of the expedition team returned to Shanghai.
\n
Carrying the mission crew, the Xuelong 2 icebreaker arrived at its home port in Shanghai on Friday morning, marking the end of China's largest-ever scientific exploration in the Arctic Ocean, according to the Ministry of Natural Resources.
\n
The expedition was jointly carried out by four vessels — Xuelong 2, Jidi, Shenhai 1 and Tansuo 3 — and further advanced China's understanding of rapid changes in the Arctic Ocean and their impact, providing crucial support for assessing and responding to global climate change, the ministry said in a statement.
\n
Xuelong 2 and Jidi completed tasks including comprehensive marine environmental surveys and manned deep-sea diving support. Significant progress was achieved in areas such as multidisciplinary surveys in the ice edge zone and three-dimensional coordinated observation of atmosphere-ice-ocean systems.
\n
With the support of Xuelong 2, the Shenhai 1, carrying the Jiaolong manned submersible, achieved China's first manned deep-sea dive in Arctic ice-covered waters — a milestone reflecting the country's growing capacity to access and explore the deep sea, according to the statement.
\n
Preliminary studies revealed major differences in benthic organism density, biodiversity and individual body size across Arctic sea areas.
\n
The findings provide support for uncovering spatial distribution patterns of polar deep-sea benthic organisms and assessing the impacts of climate change on deep-sea ecosystems, the ministry said.

A cook demonstrates threading noodles through the eye of a needle at the third Innovation Exchange Conference for Craftsmen of the Nation in Chongqing on Tuesday.
\n
Master craftsmen should leverage their expertise to help young people and enterprises grow, as part of efforts to promote overall improvement of industries' technical standards and fulfill their social responsibility, participants said at a recent event in Chongqing.
\n
"Craftsmen should not only strive for excellence themselves but also guide their teams and mentor young talent. They must step outside their factories and engage with more enterprises in need, particularly small and medium-sized companies and supply chain partners," said Yang Yongxiu, a senior technician from the China FAW Group, during the third Innovation Exchange Conference for Craftsmen of the Nation.
\n
From an apprentice milling machine operator to an industry expert proficient in programming foreign computer numerical control systems, Yang was one of the 200 national master craftsmen this year.
\n
Yang and his team have trained more than 3,000 individuals. In places like Jingmen of Hubei province and Qinhuangdao of Hebei, he has led his team to overcome more than 30 key technical challenges, helping enterprises improve processing efficiency by 20 percent.
\n
The event, which concluded on Friday, showcased innovative achievements and celebrated the spirit of craftsmanship. It was co-hosted by the All-China Federation of Trade Unions and the Chongqing municipality.
\n
Yang Bo, a project leader at the Chongqing Industrial Equipment Installation Group, demonstrated the tangible results of craftsmen aiding enterprises.
\n
Also one of the 2025 national master craftsmen, he provided technical guidance on the welding of steel anchor beams and steel brackets for the Fengjie-Wushan bridge construction project. He diagnosed corrosion issues in core salt production equipment and developed customized repair plans for several salt chemical enterprises across the country.
\n
"While helping companies solve problems, I also gained technical inspiration," Yang Bo said. This year, his research on composite metal material corrosion repair technology for salt production equipment was recognized as an outstanding construction method in Chongqing.
\n
As a welder with 39 years of experience on the front lines, Yang Bo has participated in around 50 key projects across sectors such as chemical engineering, metallurgy, pharmaceuticals, and defense. He has led the company's technical team in overcoming dozens of welding challenges.
\n
He also has mentored about 1,200 welding technicians, fulfilling the social responsibility of a craftsman through action.
\n
On Thursday, a comprehensive cooperation framework for craftsmen from Sichuan province and Chongqing to assist enterprises was signed in Chongqing, covering areas such as collaborative technical problem-solving, joint skill talent training, and mentorship pairing.
\n
Cui Xingguo, a national master craftsman and a technician at Dongfang Electric Machinery, said: "Participating in the enterprise assistance initiative is not only self-development but also an opportunity to learn from others."
\n
As China strives to become a global manufacturing powerhouse, it faces a significant shortage of skilled laborers. In 2020, there was a talent gap of 19 million in the country's top 10 key manufacturing sectors, a figure expected to reach 30 million by 2025, according to an official report.
\n
To address this challenge, the federation has established more than 2,600 craftsman academies nationwide, with a platform launched for employee skills services, and has created a special fund to support and incentivize national craftsmen.

As a welder with 39 years of experience on the front lines, Yang Bo has participated in around 50 key projects across sectors such as chemical engineering, metallurgy, pharmaceuticals, and defense. He has led the company's technical team in overcoming dozens of welding challenges.
\n
He also has mentored about 1,200 welding technicians, fulfilling the social responsibility of a craftsman through action.
\n
On Thursday, a comprehensive cooperation framework for craftsmen from Sichuan province and Chongqing to assist enterprises was signed in Chongqing, covering areas such as collaborative technical problem-solving, joint skill talent training, and mentorship pairing.
\n
Cui Xingguo, a national master craftsman and a technician at Dongfang Electric Machinery, said: "Participating in the enterprise assistance initiative is not only self-development but also an opportunity to learn from others."
\n
As China strives to become a global manufacturing powerhouse, it faces a significant shortage of skilled laborers. In 2020, there was a talent gap of 19 million in the country's top 10 key manufacturing sectors, a figure expected to reach 30 million by 2025, according to an official report.
\n
To address this challenge, the federation has established more than 2,600 craftsman academies nationwide, with a platform launched for employee skills services, and has created a special fund to support and incentivize national craftsmen.

Crew members of the Shenzhou XX mission have conducted their fourth spacewalk outside the Tiangong space station, completing several tasks, according to the China Manned Space Agency.
\n
The agency said in a news release on Friday that crew members Colonel Chen Zhongrui, 40, and Colonel Wang Jie, 36, returned to the Wentian science module at 1:35 am after floating for nearly six hours outside the colossal orbital station.
\n
The mission commander, Senior Colonel Chen Dong, stayed inside Tiangong to provide support, it said.
\n
With support from ground controllers and the use of a robotic arm, the team completed all their assigned operations, including installing space debris shields, checking the condition of extravehicular equipment and fixing broken parts, the agency said.
\n
The spacewalk was the 24th carried out by the Chinese astronauts, and also the first conducted by both third-generation astronauts.
\n
The Shenzhou XX crew is conducting China's 15th manned spaceflight and has become the ninth group of residents aboard the Tiangong, which is currently the only operational space station independently run by a single nation.
\n
By now, Chen Dong and his teammates have spent more than five months in orbit, carrying out a series of science and technology assignments. They are scheduled to return to Earth next month.
\n
Their predecessors in the Shenzhou XIX flight made three spacewalks during their six-month mission.
\n
Orbiting Earth at distance of about 400 kilometers, the Tiangong space station has three permanent parts — a core module and two science capsules — and is regularly connected to several visiting crew and cargo spaceships. It weighs about 100 metric tons and is expected to operate for at least 10 years.

The Global Governance Initiative, proposed by Chinese President Xi Jinping at the recent Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit in Tianjin and based on the principles of sovereign equality, international rule of law, multilateralism, people-centric approach and real results, is another significant contribution to global public goods.
\n
Together with the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative and the Global Civilization Initiative, the GGI offers Chinese solutions to the challenges faced by the world in an era defined by changes. The four initiatives are mutually reinforcing, and promote good, effective global governance, which is essential for realizing common development, universal security, and smooth exchanges among civilizations.
\n
The world stands at a critical crossroads, requiring countries to choose between continuing on the path of peace, development and cooperation, and resorting to bloc confrontation and triggering a new Cold War.
\n
In these times of rapid global changes, the postwar international system is being undermined by unilateralism and geopolitical tensions, fueling global disorder. The United Nations Security Council is unable to help resolve the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is severely lagging behind due to pandemics, regional conflicts and reduction in development aid by the Western powers. Global climate governance, too, faces uncertainties following the United States' withdrawal from the Paris Agreement, and hindrance to the European Union's green policies.
\n
On the other hand, the global governance system faces the crisis of representation, legitimacy and effectiveness, leading to governance deficit and lack of effective governance in fields such as cyberspace and outer space. In particular, the underrepresentation of developing countries in global governance is acute. Quotas and voting rights in the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank are disproportionately allocated to the US-led Western powers. The "Green Room meetings" at the World Trade Organization — where a select group of core members negotiate draft solutions before consulting the broader membership — and the donor-recipient model dominated by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development have eroded the autonomy of developing countries.
\n
At this critical juncture, which coincides with the 80th anniversary of the establishment of the UN, the GGI offers the right direction for global governance. The initiative does not aim to create a new system outside the current international framework; rather, it seeks to strengthen the principles and the right practices of the existing international order.
\n
The GGI's concept document emphasizes that the postwar system with the UN at its core, the world order underpinned by international law, and the basic norms of international relations based on the UN Charter have helped maintain global peace and promote development. The GGI's five core principles — especially adhering to sovereign equality, abiding by international rule of law and upholding multilateralism — show its allegiance to the international order.
\n
As a defender, participant and contributor to the existing international system, China has been playing a significant leadership role in global development governance. The China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative and Global Development Initiative are helping reshape global development while adhering to the principles of inclusivity, equity, mutual benefit and cooperation. It is also helping realize the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
\n
In areas such as global economic and climate governance, China has consistently upheld multilateral mechanisms, despite the US' withdrawal from international organizations and treaties, and undermining of the UN-centered system. In such circumstances, revitalizing global governance requires a return to the correct path, which is exactly what the GGI promotes.
\n
In addition, the widening deficit in global governance highlights the lack of representativeness, legitimacy and effectiveness in governance mechanisms, making innovation and reform imperative. The "America First" strategy and zero-sum mindset undermine trust among major powers and hamper mutual coordination, while unilateralism impedes multilateral governance, risking the fragmentation and dysfunction of the global governance system.
\n
To cope with such challenges, the GGI advocates following people-centric policies and realizing real results in the interest of all. By adhering to the principle of seeking common ground while shelving differences, adopting an action-oriented approach, and promoting practical cooperation, the GGI is a major innovation in global governance.
\n
The GGI is not designed to fill any vacuum left by the US or replace any country's role in global governance. Rather, it demonstrates China's sense of responsibility and commitment as a major country. The decline of the US' position in global governance is the result of its own actions. Since taking office in January, the US administration has repeatedly shied away from its international responsibilities, significantly reduced its international aid, and undermined the WTO-centered trade system with its tariff policies, which have eroded its credibility in global governance.
\n
According to a Pew Research Center survey in June, the positive perception of the US has declined significantly in 15 countries since last year, with Sweden having the lowest approval rating. While 79 percent of Sweden's population has an unfavorable opinion about Washington, more than six in 10 adults in Canada and Mexico view the US negatively, a sentiment shared by the majority in Australia, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain and Turkiye.
\n
China has consistently urged major countries, including the US, to fulfill their due global responsibilities, and contribute more to global resources and public goods.
\n
No single country alone can fill the deficit in global governance, and the roles of countries in global governance are interdependent and mutually reinforcing. China's call for increasing the representation of developing countries in global governance does not mean diminishing the influence of Western countries. Instead, it serves as a corrective measure to address the current underrepresentation of developing countries in the global governance mechanisms, making global governance more inclusive and democratizing international relations, in order to build a community with a shared future for humanity.

As the fall winds whisper through the bustling streets of Shanghai and the misty hills of Taipei, I find myself humming a tune that has long bridged the narrow waterway between the Chinese mainland and Taiwan: Tomorrow Will Be Better.
\n
This anthem of hope and resilience, penned by Taiwan composer Lo Tayu and first performed at a charity concert in Hong Kong, soared across the Taiwan Strait, uniting mainland schoolchildren singing in morning assemblies with Taiwan families gathered around the piano on Chinese New Year. Melodies such as this, and the cultural tapestry they weave stand as timeless testaments to the profound, inseparable bonds between the mainland and Taiwan.
\n
Let us begin with the simple power of a song. Consider The Olive Tree, Taiwan singer Chyi Yu's haunting ballad of longing and farewell. The song captured the ache of the diaspora and unfulfilled wanderlust, resonating on both sides of the Strait. I recall a rainy evening in Shanghai, years ago, when a street musician strummed the chords of his guitar, drawing a crowd of passers-by, some from Shanghai, some from other provinces, others with a familiar Taiwan accent. One listener, a Taiwan entrepreneur on a business trip, joined in, his voice cracking with emotion. At that very moment, the olive tree was not just a metaphor for elusive peace; it was us, reaching across the divide with shared yearning.
\n
These songs are more like cultural couriers. Taiwan chanteuse Teresa Teng's I Only Care About You became a beloved anthem across the Strait. By the 1990s, as reform opened doors, her concerts in Hong Kong drew tears from audiences who had waited decades to hear her live. Likewise, Childhood by Lo Tayu evokes the bittersweet innocence of growing up, uniting mainland millennials reminiscing about courtyard games with their Taiwan compatriots sharing tales of school life. The Promise by Taiwan singer Chou Huei, with its vow of enduring commitment, feels almost prophetic, a pledge whispered between estranged kin.
\n
Each of these songs carries the DNA of our common heritage: the poetic cadence of classical Chinese, the emotional depth of Confucian introspection and the innovative flair of 20th century fusion. They are not "Taiwan residents" or "mainland residents"; they are Chinese people, flowing like the Min River that once carried our ancestors from Fujian to Taiwan's shores.
\n
This musical intimacy extends to the silver screen and television. Who among us has not been captivated by the wuxia (martial hero fiction) epics of Hong Kong novelist Louis Cha Leung-yung, adapted into dramas like The Legend of the Condor Heroes that aired on both the CCTV of the mainland and TTV of Taiwan? These tales of chivalry and loyalty, drawn from shared literary roots, transported viewers from the bustling hutongs of old Beijing to the lantern-lit streets of Kaohsiung. Films such as Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, a Taiwan director's global ode to wuxia aesthetics, premiered to mainland applause, proving our cinematic grammar is one and the same.
\n
Entertainment exchanges deepen this synergy. Joint variety shows, like the mainland's Happy Camp inviting Taiwan idols or Kangxi Coming of Taiwan featuring mainland comedians, spark laughter that echoes familial banter. Concerts by Jay Chou in Shanghai or Faye Wong in Taipei draw mixed crowds chanting lyrics in unison.
\n
These are lifelines, not mere spectacles. I'm reminded of a young couple I met at a cultural forum in Xiamen, Fujian province, she from Nanjing, Jiangsu province, he from Hsinchu, Taiwan, bonded over binge-watching Meteor Garden, the Taiwan drama that swept the mainland in the early 2000s. Their story, born of F4's boyish charm and shared adolescent crushes, culminated in a cross-Strait marriage. Culture, in these instances, is the thread stitching hearts together, defying any attempt to unravel it.
\n
Yet as we revel in these joys, a sobering question arises: why must we defend what is so evidently ours? The push to sever cultural ties through bans on mainland media in Taiwan or restrictions on cross-Strait artists is a betrayal of our shared soul. It severs the arteries of our identity, pretending that the Minnan dialect spoken in Quanzhou, Fujian province, is alien to Tainan, Taiwan, or that Dragon Boat Festival's rhythms do not pulse identically in both realms. Such divisions sow suspicion where familiarity once bloomed, turning neighbors into strangers. This is a true tragedy: not the Strait itself, but the invisible walls we erect around our imagination.
\n
Our cultures are tributaries of the same mighty Yangtze River of heritage, from the oracle bones of the Shang Dynasty (c.16th century-11th century BC) to the revolutionary fervor of the May Fourth Movement of 1919. To cut them apart is to dam a river, starving the delta of its lifeblood. Instead, let us amplify these exchanges: more co-productions, unfettered song streams, and festivals where artists from both sides jam under the same moon. Imagine a pan-Chinese music award or a film week in Fuzhou, Fujian, mirroring Cannes Film Festival, celebrating our indivisibility.
\n
As Tomorrow Will Be Better fades into the night, its promise lingers: tomorrow will definitely be better, because of our unity. Let no force, political, ideological or otherwise, silence the songs that sing our oneness. For in their harmony, we hear the heartbeat of a greater China, eternal and unbroken.

This year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, a land that covers onesixth of China's territory. Over the past seven decades, Xinjiang has undergone some remarkable transformations — economically, socially, and culturally. Once primarily associated with coal, oil and cotton, the region is now emerging as a national and global hub of innovation in clean energy. Its story is no longer about resources extracted; it is about energy re-imagined, harnessed responsibly, and shared broadly.
\n
Xinjiang's energy mix used to be dominated by coal. Coal not only underpinned the region's local economic growth but was also transported via trains to other parts of the country, making a vital contribution to China's national development. Coal did power the economy, but it also caused heavy environmental damage, and led to inefficiency and high transportation costs.
\n
In China's quest to achieve its ambitious "dual-carbon" goals — of peaking carbon emissions before 2030 and realizing carbon neutrality before 2060 — Xinjiang is playing a key role. The region's focus is now on wind and solar energy, transforming both its landscape and role in the national energy system. Over the past decade, vast stretches of desert have been blanketed with solar photovoltaic panels, while wind turbines now punctuate valleys and the Gobi plains. Xinjiang has moved from "transporting coal" to "supplying electricity", a revolutionary shift that signals the region's readiness for a cleaner, smarter energy future.
\n
Xinjiang's natural conditions make it ideal for clean energy development. Long hours of sunlight and vast open stretches of land create the perfect condition for solar farms, while the Tianshan Mountains' abundant strong winds have given rise to expansive wind energy projects. The combination of favorable geography and climate has put the region at the forefront of the country's clean energy revolution.
\n
Yet clean energy comes with its challenges. Solar and wind power, while sustainable, are inherently variable. Xinjiang once faced the frustrating reality of "electricity only when the sun shines or the wind blows". To overcome this, the authorities have adopted a multi-pronged approach: ultra-highvoltage direct-current (UHVDC) transmission lines now carry surplus electricity thousands of kilometers away to central and eastern China to meet the high demand there and prevent waste.
\n
Also, energy storage systems and smart grid optimization have boosted efficiency, turning formerly idle wind and solar power into reliable energy streams. The once-common phenomenon of "abandoned wind and solar power" has been drastically reduced. Every ray of sunlight and gust of wind is now put to maximum use.
\n
The increasing production of clean energy in Xinjiang is not only about technology; it is also about creating a local ecosystem. An increasing number of homegrown companies are engaged in manufacturing, installing and maintaining wind and solar power infrastructure, fostering a thriving industrial cluster, generating employment and driving high-quality economic development. Clean energy has become a new engine of prosperity for the region.
\n
Xinjiang's clean energy transformation has also reshaped the region's role in national energy distribution. Previously, coal and oil required long-distance rail and road transport, which was costly, energy-intensive and environmentally damaging.
\n
Today, UHVDC transmission allows electricity to flow directly from Xinjiang's wind and solar power farms to the central and eastern regions, making energy supply more efficient, sustainable and reliable.
\n
The region is transitioning from a resource-exporting hub to a modern energy powerhouse, where invisible streams of clean energy are replacing the rumble of coal-carrying trains. This structural shift has enhanced Xinjiang's strategic importance in China's energy landscape while injecting fresh momentum into the region's development.
\n
Looking ahead, Xinjiang's clean energy ambition aligns seamlessly with the Belt and Road Initiative. Apart from serving the country, the electricity the region generates could also be exported to Central and South Asia, and even other global markets, through cross-border grids. Xinjiang's green energy is no longer just a local asset; it is a part of the global energy transition and lowcarbon development, reflecting China's commitment to sustainability and global cooperation.
\n
The benefits of clean energy extend beyond the economy. Many parts of Xinjiang have fragile ecosystems, and face desertification and water scarcity. Energy-intensive development models are unsustainable. Clean energy offers a path to balance growth with ecological stewardship. Solar power farms help reduce evaporation and sandstorms, while wind power projects integrate with agriculture and pastoral practices, creating a model of efficient, multifunctional land use. These projects also create jobs and improve people's livelihoods.
\n
A key hub on the ancient Silk Road, Xinjiang now leverages its strategic location in the Belt and Road Initiative to advance cross-border energy cooperation. Through partnerships with neighboring countries, Xinjiang not only exports electricity but also drives the development of new energy equipment, technological services and financial collaboration, facilitating economic diversification and strengthening the region's role in the global energy transformation.
\n
In the past seven decades, Xinjiang has transformed into a "region of wind and sun", creating a model for resource-dependent regions seeking sustainable transformation. With wind and sunlight as partners, Xinjiang is charting a future that combines environmental responsibility with economic vitality. Clean energy is not a slogan — it is tangible productive power, a choice for protecting the environment, and enhancing development potential.
\n
To countries pursuing green development, Xinjiang's experience offers valuable lessons. Even in deserts, respecting nature and harnessing technology can create paths that are both ecologically sustainable and economically prosperous. After 70 years of challenges and achievements, Xinjiang stands at a new historic juncture, embracing a future that is better, brighter and cleaner.

Xinjiang once faced the frustrating reality of "electricity only when the sun shines or the wind blows". To overcome this, the authorities have adopted a multi-pronged approach: ultra-highvoltage direct-current (UHVDC) transmission lines now carry surplus electricity thousands of kilometers away to central and eastern China to meet the high demand there and prevent waste.
\n
Also, energy storage systems and smart grid optimization have boosted efficiency, turning formerly idle wind and solar power into reliable energy streams. The once-common phenomenon of "abandoned wind and solar power" has been drastically reduced. Every ray of sunlight and gust of wind is now put to maximum use.
\n
The increasing production of clean energy in Xinjiang is not only about technology; it is also about creating a local ecosystem. An increasing number of homegrown companies are engaged in manufacturing, installing and maintaining wind and solar power infrastructure, fostering a thriving industrial cluster, generating employment and driving high-quality economic development. Clean energy has become a new engine of prosperity for the region.
\n
Xinjiang's clean energy transformation has also reshaped the region's role in national energy distribution. Previously, coal and oil required long-distance rail and road transport, which was costly, energy-intensive and environmentally damaging.
\n
Today, UHVDC transmission allows electricity to flow directly from Xinjiang's wind and solar power farms to the central and eastern regions, making energy supply more efficient, sustainable and reliable.
\n
The region is transitioning from a resource-exporting hub to a modern energy powerhouse, where invisible streams of clean energy are replacing the rumble of coal-carrying trains. This structural shift has enhanced Xinjiang's strategic importance in China's energy landscape while injecting fresh momentum into the region's development.
\n
Looking ahead, Xinjiang's clean energy ambition aligns seamlessly with the Belt and Road Initiative. Apart from serving the country, the electricity the region generates could also be exported to Central and South Asia, and even other global markets, through cross-border grids. Xinjiang's green energy is no longer just a local asset; it is a part of the global energy transition and lowcarbon development, reflecting China's commitment to sustainability and global cooperation.
\n
The benefits of clean energy extend beyond the economy. Many parts of Xinjiang have fragile ecosystems, and face desertification and water scarcity. Energy-intensive development models are unsustainable. Clean energy offers a path to balance growth with ecological stewardship. Solar power farms help reduce evaporation and sandstorms, while wind power projects integrate with agriculture and pastoral practices, creating a model of efficient, multifunctional land use. These projects also create jobs and improve people's livelihoods.
\n
A key hub on the ancient Silk Road, Xinjiang now leverages its strategic location in the Belt and Road Initiative to advance cross-border energy cooperation. Through partnerships with neighboring countries, Xinjiang not only exports electricity but also drives the development of new energy equipment, technological services and financial collaboration, facilitating economic diversification and strengthening the region's role in the global energy transformation.
\n
In the past seven decades, Xinjiang has transformed into a "region of wind and sun", creating a model for resource-dependent regions seeking sustainable transformation. With wind and sunlight as partners, Xinjiang is charting a future that combines environmental responsibility with economic vitality. Clean energy is not a slogan — it is tangible productive power, a choice for protecting the environment, and enhancing development potential.
\n
To countries pursuing green development, Xinjiang's experience offers valuable lessons. Even in deserts, respecting nature and harnessing technology can create paths that are both ecologically sustainable and economically prosperous. After 70 years of challenges and achievements, Xinjiang stands at a new historic juncture, embracing a future that is better, brighter and cleaner.

China has initiated an anti-dumping probe into pecans imported from the United States and Mexico, and has also launched a separate investigation into Mexico's restrictive measures against the nation.
\n
These moves signal Beijing's determination to safeguard its national interests and global trading system, analysts said.
\n
This follows a proposal by Mexico to increase tariffs on Chinese textiles, steel and automotive goods, and comes at a time when China and the United States are eyeing further talks to resolve their trade dispute.
\n
The anti-dumping probe, announced on Thursday, is scheduled to conclude by Sept 25, 2026, the Ministry of Commerce said in a statement, noting that it could be prolonged by six months if needed.
\n
There is evidence that pecans from these two countries "are being sold in China at artificially low prices", inflicting substantial harm on the domestic industry, the ministry said.
\n
The ministry also announced on Thursday that it is initiating a separate investigation into Mexico's restrictive measures that constitute trade and investment barriers against China.
\n
"In the current context of the US' abuse of tariff hikes, all countries should jointly oppose all forms of unilateralism and protectionism, and must not sacrifice the interests of third parties under the coercion of others," a spokesperson for the ministry said.
\n
Earlier this month, the Mexican government proposed significant tariff increases on over 1,400 products, including Chinese textiles, steel, and automotive goods, as part of its 2026 budget package.
\n
Analysts view Mexico's recent restrictive measures as a move to protect domestic industries, and more importantly, appease Washington amid trade tensions and a review of the United States — Mexico-Canada Agreement trade pact.
\n
"If Mexico's unilateral tariff hike measures are implemented, even within the framework of the WTO, it will harm the interests of related trading partners, including China, and seriously impact the certainty of the business environment in Mexico, undermining the confidence of enterprises in investing in the country," the spokesperson added.
\n
China is Mexico's second largest trading partner globally, after the United States, while Mexico is China's second largest trading partner in Latin America. In 2024, the total trade value between China and Mexico reached $109.4 billion, data from the ministry showed.
\n
"What we are seeing is not a trade policy rooted in Mexico's market conditions, but a geopolitical one driven by Washington's agenda," said Cui Fan, a professor of international trade at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing.
\n
The move risks drawing Mexico deeper into a confrontational approach that could destabilize regional supply chains and undermine the stability of the global trading system. It also raises questions about the sustainability of Mexico's trade environment where economic decisions are increasingly made under coercion rather than through rules-based mechanisms, Cui added.
\n
Earlier on Thursday, the ministry also placed six US firms on its export control and unreliable entity lists.
\n
"The biggest obstacle currently affecting the normal economic and trade cooperation between China and the US is the unilateral restrictive measures taken by the US," He Yadong, spokesman for the ministry, said at a news conference on Thursday.
\n
Zhou Mi, a senior research fellow at the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation, said despite progress made in the four rounds of China-US trade talks, there are still significant differences between the two countries on major economic and trade issues such as tariffs and technology restrictions.
\n
This will require the United States to abandon its erroneous practices of resorting to unilateral sanctions and coercion through long-arm jurisdiction, Zhou said.

An electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft on display at the Fourth Global Digital Trade Expo in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province.
\n
China's digital trade sector made great strides last year, and the country has become one of the most dynamic economies in digital trade around the world, which has injected new momentum into domestic economic growth and contributed significantly to the global trade development.
\n
China's imports and exports of digitally delivered services trade rose 6.5 percent year-on-year to 2.9 trillion yuan ($406.6 billion) in 2024, according to the China Digital Trade Development Report 2025 released by the Ministry of Commerce during the Fourth Global Digital Trade Expo in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province on Friday.
\n
Imports and exports of the country's cross-border e-commerce sector reached 2.71 trillion yuan last year, up 14 percent year-on-year, hitting a record high, the report said.
\n
It noted that China's exports of telecommunications, computer and information services are at the forefront globally, while the growth rate of China's digital services trade far exceeds the global average, making it the fastest-growing economy in digital services trade worldwide.
\n
Kong Dejun, head of the department of trade in services of the Ministry of Commerce, said at present, digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and blockchain are accelerating in innovation and increasingly integrated into all aspects of economic and social development.
\n
"Digital trade is thriving, demonstrating strong development resilience and having a profound impact on patterns, structures, and rules of global trade. It has become the most dynamic component for bolstering global trade growth," Kong said.
\n
He noted that China possesses abundant data resources, a vast domestic market, and diverse digital application scenarios, all of which provide a solid foundation for the development of digital trade.
\n
Looking ahead, China will vigorously promote the reform, innovation and development of digital trade, advance institutional opening-up and deepen international cooperation in the digital trade domain, he added.
\n
China has attached great importance to the development of digital trade, which is regarded as one of the three pillars supporting the development of a strong trading nation, alongside trade in goods and services.
\n
The total value of global digital trade rose from $4.59 trillion in 2020 to $7.23 trillion in 2024, with the average annual growth rate reaching 12.1 percent, according to the Global Digital Trade Development Report 2025. This growth significantly outpaced that of total global trade, which grew at an average annual rate of 9.7 percent over the same period.
\n
The report was jointly released by the International Trade Centre and the organizing committee of the Global Digital Trade Expo. The faster expansion of digital trade underscores its increasing importance in the global economy and reflects an ongoing structural shift toward digitalization in international commerce, it said.
\n
Digitally delivered services, and digitally ordered goods and services have jointly driven growth in digital trade, the report said, adding that the former accounted for the larger share, rising from $3.21 trillion in 2020 to $4.64 trillion in 2024, with an average annual growth rate of 9.6 percent.
\n
Digitally ordered trade expanded more rapidly — from $1.41 trillion to $2.62 trillion — at an average annual growth rate of 16.7 percent between 2020 and 2024. The European Union, China and the United States ranked as the top three in terms of digitally ordered trade exports.
\n
The report also highlighted that AI has emerged as a transformative force in digital trade, reshaping infrastructure, services and applications. Advances in large model architectures, including the DeepSeek open-source ecosystem, lowered barriers for small and medium-sized enterprises and spurred innovation across healthcare, education, finance and cross-border data markets.
\n
Zhou Wenyu, assistant professor of the International Business School at Zhejiang University, said AI has given rise to a wide range of emerging service formats and cross-border transaction scenarios. Meanwhile, cross-border e-commerce has greatly promoted the deep integration and efficient coordination of global industrial and supply chains.

Investor confidence in China strengthened in the third quarter, driven by a rebound in A shares and steady growth of Chinese technology firms, a survey by Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business showed.
\n
The poll launched in July, which surveyed around 1,300 investors and 800 financial professionals, found investor sentiment had improved, with 63.1 percent of respondents expecting A-share gains. This proportion is 1.6 percentage points higher than the investor sentiment survey in April and 15.6 percentage points higher than the one in July 2024.
\n
Over a one-year period until August, the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index had climbed 35.7 percent, and the Shenzhen Composite Index surged 58.2 percent.
\n
The survey, led by Liu Jing, professor of accounting and finance at CKGSB, found that the current rally in A shares has been driven primarily by valuation expansion rather than improved fundamentals of listed companies.
\n
"The year-long A-share rally shows at least partial recovery of investor confidence. The survey reflects both optimism and caution; while investor confidence is rebounding, sustainable growth will require deeper structural reforms," Liu said.
\n
Valuation recovery has been mainly driven by three factors, including policy support rolled out since late last year and technological breakthroughs achieved by several Chinese technology companies. The breakthroughs have spurred gains in A-share sectors such as semiconductors, automation and industrial metals.
\n
Besides, China's forward-looking, systematic and targeted response strategies adopted amid this round of Sino-US trade frictions have significantly boosted market confidence in the nation's economic resilience and independent technological development capabilities.
\n
"A sustained bull market hinges on robust fundamentals. Critical to shoring up these fundamentals are structural re-balancing from investment to consumption, technological innovation, industrial upgrading, and dynamic private-sector activity," Liu said.
\n
He added that the proportion of service consumption in China is poised to keep expanding, and this segment calls for further stimulation, given its substantial growth potential.
\n
China unveiled a new policy package recently to further boost the growth of service consumption. The guideline, jointly issued by the Ministry of Commerce and eight other entities earlier this month, listed 19 measures to propel the expansion of service consumption.

Artificial intelligence's potential to make financial services more professional and accessible drew wide attention at the International Forum for China Financial Inclusion 2025, which closed on Thursday in Beijing.
\n
Ma Xiaohang, general manager of MYbank's information technology department, told the forum that advances in large AI models — particularly in reasoning, tool use and data processing — are enabling breakthroughs. "This gives us confidence that more professional financial services can indeed become more inclusive," he said.
\n
Earlier this year, MYbank, a digital bank using data-driven lending to serve small and micro enterprises, unveiled its AI banking strategy, aiming to act as "the CFO for every small business" while equipping each bank employee with an intelligent assistant.
\n
MYbank's AI applications over the past year have focused on three areas: risk management in lending, customer operations and services, and wealth management. The bank is developing AI assistants for credit approval, capable of streamlining industry research, due diligence and loan assessment.
\n
"In the past, developing industry knowledge and building a risk framework could take experts one to two months. With AI, we can now automate data collection, build analytical frameworks and identify the key risk factors of an industry in minutes," Ma said. He added that AI-powered due diligence tools, including video and photo verification, are helping the bank better assess client operations and risks in the absence of physical branches.
\n
MYbank primarily serves small and micro enterprises with loans under 2 million yuan ($280,370). Ma noted that the bank's AI-generated credit limits now align with expert assessments in roughly 90 percent of cases. He stressed that computing power, proprietary data, and specialized models will be essential for applying large AI models in financial services.
\n
Bank of Jiangsu is also pushing forward with AI adoption. Since early 2023, the bank has explored building large models, and it accelerated deployment after the release of an open-source reasoning model developed by Chinese AI startup DeepSeek in January.
\n
Shi Cheng, general manager of Bank of Jiangsu's inclusive finance and technology finance departments, said AI is mainly being applied in business strategy, risk control and operations. For example, AI now identifies low-risk, high-value small business clients by analyzing years of customer data.
\n
"We have AI analyze the characteristics and profiles of low-risk, high-value small and micro enterprise clients identified through each data run. Then, we broaden our perspective to the entire market, exploring new avenues while building upon our existing business direction," he said.
\n
In risk prevention, the bank uses AI to detect potential fraud scenarios by learning from past cases. In operations, an AI-based contract review reduces processing time from minutes to seconds.
\n
Liu Xiaochun, affiliate professor at the Shanghai Advanced Institute of Finance at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and vice-president of the Shanghai Finance Institute, said that despite the recent surge of interest in AI, financial institutions have remained calm, unlike the more impulsive embrace of the earlier Internet Plus wave. He noted that institutions are carefully examining the specific features of different AI technologies and assessing whether they can address issues of efficiency or cost.
\n
Liu stressed the importance of understanding the relationship between AI and human beings, emphasizing that people must always come first, since AI is ultimately developed by humans.
\n
"When a bank adopts AI, it is the bank that decides how to use it and what problems AI should solve," he said. "Technology can reduce the need for manual work, but that does not mean people are unimportant."
\n
Reflecting on financial innovation, Liu said that despite evolving from internet finance to fintech, digital finance, and now AI, the problems they address are quite similar and the challenges remain largely the same — especially the "last mile". He cautioned against exaggerating AI's capabilities, stressing that it is people who ultimately solve problems, and only with clear understanding can AI be used effectively.

WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump on Thursday unveiled a new round of tariffs on a broad range of imported goods, including 100 percent duties on branded drugs and 25 percent levies on heavy-duty trucks, set to take effect next week.
\n
The latest salvo, which Trump said was aimed at protecting the US manufacturing industry and national security, follows sweeping duties on trading partners of up to 50 percent and other targeted levies on imported products, such as steel.
\n
The barrage has cast a pall over global growth and paralyzed business decision-making around the world, while the Federal Reserve has stated that it is also contributing to higher consumer prices in the US.
\n
Trump's latest announcements on Truth Social did not mention whether the new levies would be in addition to existing national tariffs. However, recently struck trade deals with Japan, the EU, and the United Kingdom include provisions that cap tariffs for specific products, such as pharmaceuticals.
\n
Tokyo said that it was still analyzing the potential impact of the new measures, which Canberra called "unfair" and "unjustified".
\n
Trump also followed through on a pledge to "bring back" the US furniture business, saying that he would impose a 50 percent tariff on imported kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities, as well as a 30 percent tariff on upholstered furniture. All the new duties take effect from Oct 1.
\n
Stocks of pharmaceutical companies across Asia fell as investors reacted to the news, with Australia's CSL hitting a six-year low, Japan's Sumitomo Pharma tumbling more than 3 percent.
\n
The new 100 percent tariff on any branded or patented pharmaceutical product will apply to all imports unless the company has already broken ground on building a manufacturing plant in the United States, Trump said.
\n
The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America, an industry group, said companies continue to announce hundreds of billions in new US investments. "Tariffs risk those plans," it added.
\n
Trump has made the levies a key foreign policy tool, using them to renegotiate trade deals, extract concessions and exert political pressure on other countries.
\n
His administration has played down the impact on consumer prices and touted tariffs as a significant revenue source.
\n
Some economies have already struck deals with Washington.
\n
The European Commission said on Friday it had secured a 15 percent ceiling on US tariffs on pharmaceuticals, acting as an insurance policy for European companies.
\n
Japan has an agreement that its tariff rates will not exceed those of others, including the EU, Tokyo's trade negotiator Ryosei Akazawa said on Friday.
\n
More than half of the $85.6 billion in ingredients used in medicines consumed in the United States are manufactured in the US, with the remainder sourced from Europe and other US allies, according to the US pharmaceutical trade group, which stated this earlier this year.
\n
When it comes to furniture, imports to the United States reached $25.5 billion in 2024, a 7 percent increase from the previous year.
\n
"Many of our members were shocked when we heard the news. I think the decision on the additional tariff is unfair," said Nguyen Thi Thu Hoai from the Dong Nai Wood and Handicraft Association, one of Vietnam's largest furniture clusters.
\n
Higher tariffs on commercial vehicles could put pressure on transportation costs just as Trump has vowed to reduce inflation, especially on consumer goods such as groceries.
\n
The US Chamber of Commerce earlier urged the department not to impose new truck tariffs, noting the top five import sources are Mexico, Canada, Japan, Germany and Finland, "all of which are allies or close partners of the United States posing no threat to US national security".
WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump on Thursday unveiled a new round of tariffs on a broad range of imported goods, including 100 percent duties on branded drugs and 25 percent levies on heavy-duty trucks, set to take effect next week.
\n
The latest salvo, which Trump said was aimed at protecting the US manufacturing industry and national security, follows sweeping duties on trading partners of up to 50 percent and other targeted levies on imported products, such as steel.
\n
The barrage has cast a pall over global growth and paralyzed business decision-making around the world, while the Federal Reserve has stated that it is also contributing to higher consumer prices in the US.

The China-Bangladesh friendship has become rock-solid amid the common pursuit of peace and development, with economic and cultural exchanges expanding steadily to cement the bilateral ties, diplomats and officials said at an event in Dhaka on Thursday.
\n
Speaking at the inaugural "Dhaka-China Day", jointly organized by the Chinese embassy in Bangladesh and Dhaka-based North South University, dignitaries highlighted the growing cooperation between the two countries.
\n
Chinese Ambassador to Bangladesh Yao Wen, in his speech, said that over the past 50 years, China and Bangladesh have witnessed a deepening of political mutual trust, closer economic cooperation, and extensive people-to-people exchanges.
\n
"Bilateral relations have achieved remarkable progress," he said, noting that "the annual number of personnel exchanges between China and Bangladesh has reached nearly 200,000, a record high".
\n
He expressed hope that both sides will continue to deepen practical cooperation in various fields, strengthen exchanges in governance experience, and elevate bilateral relations to a higher level.
\n
Speaking about the "Dhaka-China Day", Yao said the event demonstrates the unique charm of Chinese culture, building a bridge for young Bangladeshi students and people from all walks of life to better understand the real, multi-dimensional China.
\n
The envoy added that the Sino-Bangladeshi partnership is at a historic juncture for further upgrading.
\n
"We stand ready to work hand in hand with our Bangladeshi colleagues to share experiences in governance and deepen practical cooperation across all sectors," he said.
\n
Adviser to Bangladesh's Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock, Farida Akhter, said that China is a trustworthy and reliable development partner for her nation.
\n
She noted that in March, the Bangladeshi interim government's Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus, visited China and signed several agreements and memorandums of understanding related to economic and technical cooperation.
\n
The collaboration between the two sides is especially important for Bangladesh's younger generation, as they constitute more than half of the nation's population and are the main driving force for change, Akhter said.
\n
The official said that Bangladesh is now almost self-sufficient in fish, meat and egg production. The products are not only meeting domestic demand but are also being exported to various countries around the world. In the future, Bangladesh-China cooperation can open new horizons in the fisheries and livestock sector, she said.
\n
On Oct 4, China and Bangladesh will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the establishment of their diplomatic relations. Akhter expressed hope that both sides will take the anniversary as an opportunity to further deepen exchanges and cooperation in various fields.
\n
Bangladesh's Labour and Employment Adviser Sakhawat Hossain hailed the successful holding of "Dhaka-China Day" and praised the level of development of ties.
\n
He said he hopes to further strengthen cultural exchanges between the two countries and looks forward to enhancing cooperation in a broad range of fields.
\n
Showcasing the charm of Chinese culture, the inaugural "Dhaka-China Day" was marked by a festive atmosphere, with over 20,000 university students and faculty members attending the event alongside government officials and diplomats.

China, Russia, Pakistan and Iran have released a joint statement, reiterating their opposition to the rebuilding of military bases in Afghanistan.
\n
Afghanistan's sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity should be respected, the four countries emphasized in the statement after their representatives met on Thursday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said.
\n
The statement "reiterated firm opposition to the reestablishment of military bases in Afghanistan and the region by countries that are responsible for the current situation in Afghanistan", Guo told a regular news briefing on Friday.
\n
The foreign ministers' informal meeting of China, Russia, Pakistan and Iran was held to discuss the issue of Afghanistan on the sidelines of the 80th session of the UN General Assembly in New York, and Yue Xiaoyong, special envoy for Afghan affairs of China's Foreign Ministry, attended the meeting in person, Guo said.
\n
Bagram air base
\n
The statement came after news reports quoted United States President Donald Trump as saying earlier this month that the US is trying to reclaim the Bagram air base, which was abandoned by the US troops when they withdrew from Afghanistan in 2021.
\n
The statement "fully showed the respect for Afghanistan's sovereignty, independence and national dignity by Afghanistan's neighboring countries, as well as the common will of the international community to assist and stabilize Afghanistan", Guo said.
\n
As a neighboring country of Afghanistan and a responsible one, China will continue to work with the international community to provide assistance to Afghanistan and play a constructive role in its peace and restoration, Guo said.

The second China Commodity Fair Australia kicks off in Sydney on Thursday.
\n
Made-in-China consumer products have won praise at a major trade show in Australia, with importers, industry representatives and experts noting that the products are now increasingly recognized for their high quality, surpassing their previous reputation for reliable supply at low cost.
\n
"There's certainly been a great change in quality over the years. China is now the world's best producer of products of all kinds because the Chinese people are very creative, industrious and innovative," said James Huey, managing director of China Westbridge Advisory Services, a Sydney-based firm which helps connect businesses and investments between Australia and China.
\n
"We're seeing a lot of new products coming onto the market, and the quality is very good, so it's a great opportunity," Huey told China Daily, noting that importers and exporters on both sides are leveraging stable, complementary ties amid a dynamic global marketplace.
\n
Speaking on the sidelines of the China Commodity Fair Australia, or CCFA, which opened in Sydney on Thursday, the business consultant added: "Australia doesn't have a very strong manufacturing base, what we can do in Australia is probably add value to products …do some processing of them here. I don't think we can compete with the high level of technology China is using in its manufacturing."
\n
CCFA, now in its second edition after the inaugural fair last year, kicked off a three-day event in Sydney this week. The specialized consumer goods exhibition, the largest of its kind, featured more than 200 exhibitors showcasing 5,000 products, ranging from household items and home appliances to consumer electronics, sports equipment, and stationery, according to organizers.
\n
In his message for the event, Chinese Ambassador to Australia Xiao Qian said that with China and Australia enjoying close economic and trade relations, cooperation in consumer products "not only constitutes an important part of our bilateral trade, but also serves as a bridge that enhances exchanges and mutual trust between our peoples".
\n
The fair "provides a valuable platform for enterprises of both countries to showcase their brands, expand markets, and deepen collaboration, injecting fresh momentum into our economic ties", he said.
\n
High-quality products from China will better meet the diverse needs of Australian consumers, while also creating favorable conditions and new opportunities for Australian businesses to better understand and engage with the Chinese market, he added.
\n
Largest trading partner
\n
China is Australia's largest trading partner, and the China-Australia Free Trade Agreement, effective since December 2015, has built on Australia's large and successful commercial relationship with China, according to Australia's Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
\n
The elimination of tariffs on a wide range of Chinese goods entering Australia has made Chinese consumer goods more affordable and accessible to Australian consumers.
\n
Nick Barth, Australia and New Zealand representative for Messe Frankfurt, one of the world's largest trade fair organizers, which helped bring together the participants of the CCFA, told China Daily that the trade show is a "great avenue and door opener for Chinese manufacturers and suppliers to the Australian market".
\n
He called it "a wonderful showcase for Chinese companies in Australia", adding, "We welcome them with open arms."
\n
"Chinese products are fantastic, they're good quality now," he said. "The Australian buyers, the reason that they're here, is for the quality and to form good relationships."
\n
Zhang Shanshan, general manager of the houseware division at Ningbo General Union, one of the fair's Chinese exhibitors, said her company's focus has been mainly on more established markets, such as European countries, but it is now looking to tap into the potential of Australian consumers.
\n
"The scale and volume may not be as large as other Western markets, but the purchasing power here is significant," Zhang told China Daily.
\n
For Jorge Kassis, national manager, strategic sales, at Australian freight services provider Border Express, the fair offered an important opportunity to connect product suppliers with distributors in Australia.
\n
The Chinese market is extremely important amid the economic headwinds facing various sectors, Kassis said.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas delivers his address remotely to the UN General Assembly on Thursday, describing what Israel carried out as "one of the most horrific chapters of human tragedy in the 20th and 21st centuries".
\n
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas stood his ground that Israel was not merely carrying out just "aggression", but committing a "war crime and crime against humanity", as he rejected the "Greater Israel" plan during his virtual address on Thursday at the United Nations General Assembly.
\n
He called out the "extremist Israeli government" for its continued settlement project in the West Bank despite international rejection, even including from Israel's staunchest ally, the United States, as Abbas reiterated the need for an immediate ceasefire, the unconditional delivery of aid and the end of using starvation as a weapon.
\n
US President Donald Trump told reporters at the Oval Office on Thursday that he "will not allow Israel to annex the West Bank" and said there has been enough and that it was "time to stop now". But Israel's far-right lawmakers are urging Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to defy Trump.
\n
Abbas, who addressed the 80th session of the UN General Assembly, received cheers from the audience for appearing via video link after the US refused the Palestinian delegation a visa.
\n
The Palestinian President also noted that a "suffocating siege" has been imposed on an entire people, destroying more than 80 percent of homes, schools, hospitals, churches, mosques and infrastructure.
\n
"What Israel is carrying out is not just aggression — it is a war crime and a crime against humanity, documented and monitored, and it will be recorded in history books and in the conscience of humanity as one of the most horrific chapters of human tragedy in the 20th and 21st centuries," Abbas said.
\n
In the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, the capital of the State of Palestine, he said, Israel continues implementing colonial policies through illegal settlement expansion and annexation projects.
\n
Abbas pointed out the latest being the construction plan in E1, which divides the West Bank, isolates occupied Jerusalem from its surroundings, "and destroys the two-state solution, in blatant violation of international law and relevant UN Security Council resolutions".
\n
"Our people must no longer remain hostage to the whims of Israeli politics that continue to deny our basic rights and perpetuate oppression, injustice, and aggression," he added.
\n
Abbas' speech comes after a new UN report concluded that the Israeli government "has demonstrated a clear and consistent intent to establish permanent control over the Gaza Strip" while ensuring a Jewish majority in the occupied West Bank and inside Israel.
\n
The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem and Israel, said Israeli authorities "extensively and systematically" demolished civilian infrastructure in the corridors and buffer zone and continuously enlarged areas under their control, reaching 75 percent of the Gaza Strip by July 2025.
\n
In destroying civilian objects and forcibly transferring the population, the report said, Israeli authorities "deliberately deprived Palestinians in Gaza of resources indispensable for their survival" and deliberately inflicted conditions of life on the Palestinians in Gaza calculated to destroy, in whole or in part, the Palestinians in Gaza, "which is an underlying act of genocide".
\n
Urgent need to ceasefire
\n
"Israel must immediately end and reverse its confiscation and use of Palestinian land in Gaza, including for the creation and expansion of the buffer zone and corridors. It must return all confiscated land to its Palestinian owners," said Navi Pillay, chair of the commission, adding that Israeli confiscation and control of land did not achieve security purposes but "have deepened the misery of the Palestinian people".
\n
Belal Alakhras, research fellow at the University of Malaya in Kuala Lumpur, said Israeli leadership has "fundamentally miscalculated" the events.
\n
"Israel's bet that overwhelming brutality to kill tens of thousands, injure many more, and induce famine would crush Palestinian will and restore deterrence has backfired spectacularly. It has apparently shattered their path to regional acceptance, unmasking the raw nature of the occupation for the world to see," said Alakhras.
\n
He said the gravest mistake, however, is for the international community "to continue treating this as a localized conflict in Gaza".
\n
For influential factions in both Washington and Israel, the devastation in Gaza is not an endpoint but a blueprint, Alakhras said. "It marks the beginning of a more aggressive, militarized foreign policy intended to reshape the region and beyond," he added.

"Israel must immediately end and reverse its confiscation and use of Palestinian land in Gaza, including for the creation and expansion of the buffer zone and corridors. It must return all confiscated land to its Palestinian owners," said Navi Pillay, chair of the commission, adding that Israeli confiscation and control of land did not achieve security purposes but "have deepened the misery of the Palestinian people".
\n
Belal Alakhras, research fellow at the University of Malaya in Kuala Lumpur, said Israeli leadership has "fundamentally miscalculated" the events.
\n
"Israel's bet that overwhelming brutality to kill tens of thousands, injure many more, and induce famine would crush Palestinian will and restore deterrence has backfired spectacularly. It has apparently shattered their path to regional acceptance, unmasking the raw nature of the occupation for the world to see," said Alakhras.
\n
He said the gravest mistake, however, is for the international community "to continue treating this as a localized conflict in Gaza".
\n
For influential factions in both Washington and Israel, the devastation in Gaza is not an endpoint but a blueprint, Alakhras said. "It marks the beginning of a more aggressive, militarized foreign policy intended to reshape the region and beyond," he added.
WASHINGTON — US President Donald Trump warned on Thursday that a government shutdown was looming, as the White House raised the stakes in a clash with Democrats by threatening mass federal firings.
\n
Republican Trump is in a tense showdown with congressional Democrats to agree on spending plans ahead of a fiscal deadline of midnight on Sept 30, after which key services will be cut.
\n
The White House earlier ordered government agencies to prepare for layoffs that would go beyond the usual practice of temporary furloughs during government shutdowns.
\n
A shutdown would result in nonessential operations coming to a halt and hundreds of thousands of civil servants being temporarily left without pay.
\n
In a late Wednesday memo, the White House's Office of Management and Budget, or OMB, asked agencies to identify programs, projects and activities where discretionary funding will lapse on Oct 1 if the US Congress does not pass legislation to keep the federal government open.
\n
"Programs that did not benefit from an infusion of mandatory appropriations will bear the brunt of a shutdown," the OMB said in the memo.
\n
The memo told agencies to submit their proposed reduction-in-force plans to the OMB and to issue notices to employees if they are ultimately shut down.
\n
The move would add to the pain of government workers after large-scale firings masterminded by Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency earlier this year.
\n
Democrats have rejected Republican proposals unless some of the spending cuts are reversed and existing healthcare subsidies are extended.
\n
"We will not be intimidated," Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries told reporters, describing OMB Chief Russell Vought as "totally and completely out of control".
\n
Shutdown battles have become a regular feature of US politics under both Republican and Democratic administrations, as Washington is increasingly paralyzed by polarization.
\n
The federal government is on the brink of its 15th partial shutdown since 1981, as lawmakers have failed to agree on a plan for discretionary funding for the new fiscal year, which accounts for about one-quarter of the $7 trillion budget.
\n
Congress last faced a shutdown in March, when Republicans refused to talk with Democrats over Trump's massive budget cuts and the layoffs of thousands of federal employees.
\n
'Negotiating tactic'
\n
The shutdown was also a negotiating tactic, with six references in a short document to how Democrats voted against the Republican stopgap funding bill last week, which was hurriedly passed by the House of Representatives as it sought to avert a shutdown.
\n
Trump canceled a meeting on Tuesday with Democratic leaders in Congress, saying he would not meet with them until they "become realistic" with their demands.
\n
With both chambers on recess this week and senators returning on Monday, time is running out to keep the US government funded after the end of the fiscal year.
\n
House Republicans warned on Friday that their members will not return before the funding deadline, forcing the Senate to vote again and accept their proposal or face a shutdown.
\n
The bill, if passed, would still only be a temporary fix, funding federal agencies through Nov 21.

Facing external headwinds from trade tensions and internal structural challenges, China is recalibrating its development model toward greater balance, resilience and innovation, Zhu Min, former deputy managing director of the International Monetary Fund, said in a talk at the London School of Economics and Political Science on Tuesday.
\n
"China is preparing itself for a long-term external uncertainty, and shifting its development strategy," Zhu told the audience. "The new strategy moves away from the previous economic growth model dominated by GDP growth to a multidimensional and much more balanced economic development strategy."
\n
According to Zhu, who is currently a senior advisor to the China Center for International Economic Exchanges, the revised strategy sets out five overarching priorities: security, science and technology innovation, economic development, green transformation, and shared prosperity.
\n
"Looking forward, China's economic development is expected to be more domestic market-oriented, higher quality growth-focused, and stronger economic resilience," he said.
\n
Zhu, who also previously served as deputy governor of the People's Bank of China, noted that the 2018-19 trade tensions with the United States marked a turning point. Despite tariffs, Chinese exports to the US stabilized at around $500 billion annually, supported by efficiency gains and diversification into Europe and Asia.
\n
"We learned a great deal," Zhu said. "China managed to keep exports steady while broadening markets, which shows the resilience of our trade sector."
\n
Domestically, Zhu emphasized the need to boost household consumption as a pillar of growth. He also underlined the importance of strengthening China's social safety net to reduce precautionary savings and encourage households to spend more confidently.
\n
Cooperation underlined
\n
On international relations, Zhu urged efforts to avoid confrontation between China and the US. "Sino-US relations are very important," he said.
\n
"It is entirely possible for China and the US to achieve mutual success and common prosperity for the benefit of both countries and the world." To achieve this, he said, both sides must work together to foster mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation.
\n
During the Q&A session, Zhu forecast that the changing global trade landscape will push Chinese companies to expand internationally.
\n
"China's companies will go abroad on a much bigger scale — not only to the US and Europe, but also Latin America, Africa and Asia. That will be the bigger trend in the next few years," he said.
\n
Nicholas Stern, chair of the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment at the London School of Economics and Political Science, said: "Asia getting together seems to me economically, politically, a huge part of the story.
\n
"It would be very nice if Europe took that opportunity to work much more closely with China … If somebody steps back in trade, in investment, in security, in finance, which the United States has done, then there's room for other people to step forward, and I hope that's what will happen," Stern said.
\n
By combining high-quality growth with innovation, carbon neutrality goals, and stronger domestic demand, Zhu said, China is positioning itself to weather global uncertainties while contributing to global stability.

Sheng virtuoso Wu Wei, who is the artist-inresidence of the orchestra's new season, performs under the baton of conductor Lyu Jia at the NCPA in Beijing on Sept 19.
\n
The China NCPA Orchestra opens its 2025-26 season with a concert led by conductor Lyu Jia in Beijing on Sept 19.
\n
Conductor Lyu Jia has worked as the music director of the China NCPA Orchestra and its principal conductor for 13 years.
\n
On a late September evening in Beijing, the stage of the National Centre for the Performing Arts pulsed with anticipation. The China NCPA Orchestra, celebrating its 15th anniversary and fresh from a triumphant European tour, lifted the curtain on its 2025-26 season. The theme was telling: "Back to the Future". It was both a nod to the orchestra's remarkable journey since its founding in 2010 and a promise of what lies ahead.
\n
The new season, which opened on Sept 19, brings together world-class musicians for 115 performances, including 37 opera shows across eight productions, 48 symphonic concerts in 30 programs, 22 chamber orchestra performances, and eight chamber ensemble concerts. For an ensemble that has already presented nearly 1,600 performances with more than 360 guest artists from around the globe, the milestone felt as much like a celebration of growth as it did a launch into the future.
\n
Just weeks before, in August, the orchestra concluded a five-stop European tour, drawing near sold-out crowds and praise from critics across the continent — another sign of its rising global reputation.
\n
The season opened with a celebratory concert led by the orchestra's music director Lyu Jia, featuring Richard Strauss' Don Juan and Also sprach Zarathustra. Artist-in-residence, sheng (one of the oldest Chinese wind instruments) virtuoso Wu Wei also joined the performance, presenting composer Huang Ruo's sheng concerto The Color Yellow.
\n
The evening concluded with a touching surprise: the orchestra offered a specially arranged rendition of Happy Birthday for Lyu's 61st birthday, filling the concert hall with warmth, music, and applause.
\n
"Over these 15 years, I have been fortunate to go along with the orchestra for 13 of them," says Lyu. "We have achieved fruitful results together and the 15 years is also a beautiful beginning since we have a long road ahead."
\n
Looking forward, the 2025-26 program highlights the Dimension of Mozart series, part of worldwide celebrations marking the 270th anniversary of the composer's birth, in 2026. The orchestra will present Mozart's genius across genres, exploring both his complexity and his forward-looking spirit. Lyu will conduct two all-Mozart programs, featuring Symphony No 35 in D Major, Haffner, K 385, Symphony No 36 in C Major, Linz, K 425 and Symphony No 41 in C Major, Jupiter, K 551.
\n
Having earned international recognition for his Bruckner recordings with the orchestra, Lyu will also return to Beethoven, Schumann, Strauss and Tchaikovsky, adding depth and familiarity to the season's offerings.
\n
Another milestone is the appointment of conductor Zhang Xian as principal guest conductor in the new season. Highly regarded on the international stage, Zhang will bring her own artistic stamp with performances of Mozart's Symphony No 39.
\n
"My connection with the China NCPA Orchestra began with our first collaboration in 2015. Since then, we have collaborated on stage in multiple seasons, creating numerous unforgettable moments," says Zhang, who is the music director of the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra.
\n
Zhang will collaborate with violinist Yang Tianwa to perform violin concertos of Sergei Prokofiev and Max Bruch. She will also perform with pianist Zhang Haochen on piano concertos of Ravel and of Chen Qigang, as well as Rachmaninoff's Symphony No 2.
\n
"In this season, I look forward to exploring new forms of artistic expression with the orchestra. Every rehearsal and performance offers an opportunity to expand our musical horizons," she adds.
\n
The guest roster is among the richest in the orchestra's history. Valery Gergiev will lead the Mariinsky Symphony Orchestra and the China NCPA Orchestra in Shostakovich's Leningrad Symphony No 7 in C Major Op 60 and The Yellow River Piano Concerto, featuring pianist Lou Wei, while Jaap van Zweden, Fabio Luisi and Lawrence Foster are among other world-renowned conductors set to appear. Soloists include violinists Augustin Hadelich and Viktoria Mullova, pianist Lukas Geniusas, and soprano Sarah Brightman, alongside rising Chinese talents and winners of major international competitions.
\n
At 80, celebrated composer Bao Yuankai has completed a landmark commission: a choral-symphonic version of Chinese Sights and Sounds. First composed as an orchestral suite in 1991, the work has been expanded and refined across 34 years. In November, it will receive its world premiere under the baton of conductor Qian Junping, with soloists Wang Hongwei and Wu Bixia, joined by the China NCPA Chorus and the Beijing Philharmonic Choir.
\n
Another highlight is the expansion of the Petit & Delicacy series, introduced in the previous season and already beloved for its blend of refinement and exploration.
\n
This season, the series expands to 17 programs across 22 concerts, offering a rich journey through musical history. Audiences will encounter the pioneering symphonic experiments of composers, including Tomaso Albinoni, Bach and Haydn, the timeless classics of Mozart, Beethoven and Tchaikovsky, as well as inventive new works by Arvo Part and contemporary Chinese composers. Together, these programs balance intimacy and discovery, bridging past and present with elegance and imagination.
\n
The NCPA has named violinist Li Zhe as the new executive director of the China NCPA Orchestra on Sept 5, a move announced just as the ensemble returned from its first full-scale European tour.
\n
Li emphasizes that the season will be more than a sequence of concerts. Music lovers can expect lectures, workshops and master classes with acclaimed artists, offering deeper insight into the stories behind the music. The orchestra will also host regular public rehearsals, inviting audiences to witness the process of performance taking shape from the very first note.
\n
"In March 2010, when the orchestra was officially established, we were filled with new hope mixed with confusion. What the orchestra would become in a few years or a decade was not clear to us then," recalls Li. "The 65 musicians who came to Beijing from all over the world carried youthful energy. They laid an extraordinary foundation, embedding passion, vitality, openness and collaboration into the DNA of the orchestra."
\n
"We have shared many historical moments together, which help us to gain clearer insights about our future," he adds.

\n
A session on the New Cultural Ecosystem in the Era of Digital Intelligence, held during the Beijing Cultural Forum on Monday, highlighted how China's cultural intellectual properties (IPs) are incubated and reach global audiences.
\n
For Justyna Katarzyna Szpakowska, whose nickname is Cui Hua, a Polish media worker who has lived in China for nearly two decades and labels herself a "superuser" and "observer" of China's cultural IPs, the trend is visible in everyday life.
\n
"Foreign audiences are most drawn to depictions of real Chinese life and authentic human stories," she says. "When I first came to China, many foreigners' impressions stopped at kung fu and the Great Wall. Now they talk about The Three-Body Problem, short dramas and games. That's a real change."
\n
Online literature was highlighted as one of the most mature and databacked examples of cultural IP exports. Yang Chen, vice-president and editor-in-chief of Yuewen Group, stressed the central role of online novels.
\n
"Web novels are our most valuable cultural assets," Yang says. They allow young writers to innovate at their will and, at the same time, connect with global readers, he adds.
\n
According to an online literature report released by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the overseas market for Chinese web literature reached 5.07 billion yuan ($711.4 million) last year, a year-on-year increase of 16.5 percent, with overseas readership climbing to 352 million across more than 200 countries and regions.
\n
WebNovel, a Chinese platform launched by Yuewen in 2017, has published over 10,000 translated works, assisted partly by AI translation into English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, and more.
\n
By June, it hosted around 770,000 original stories, created by more than 400,000 overseas authors in their native languages, according to the group, reflecting the Chinese web novel model being localized worldwide.
\n
Adaptations have further extended the reach of these IPs. The online novel Quanzhi Gaoshou (The King's Avatar) was adapted into an animation and marked its 10th anniversary this July with events co-hosted by the Swiss tourism board. Another hit, Qing Yu Nian (Joy of Life), was adapted into a TV series. Its second season is licensed to the Disney+ streaming platform, bringing Chinese storytelling to international viewers.
\n
Influencer-driven content was also discussed as a growing cultural export. In the session, Qu Tao, vice-president of Joy Media, a multichannel network (MCN) company, says: "Our formula is uniqueness, altruism, and genuine interactions with fans." When these align, the creators established cultural IPs and attract followers.
\n
The company now manages more than 100,000 influencers. Domestically, it helped amplify Harbin's winter tourism (in Heilongjiang province) boom through influencer-driven videos. The company is now exporting the model globally.
\n
Qu tells China Daily that the company is working with influencers from Poland, Russia and Georgia to share their daily experiences in China, while also training domestic creators to bring Chinese cultural heritage to international platforms.
\n
"The overseas effect of online influencers is a significant trend. Many people abroad have a limited understanding of China," Qu says. "Influencers are now presenting China from grassroots perspectives in an authentic way."
\n
Games, another powerful cultural carrier, act as translators and amplifiers of culture, says Yu Ruichao, vice-president of Tencent Interactive Entertainment. He cites examples such as a King of Glory skin (for game characters) inspired by Dunhuang flying apsaras and the integration of Kunqu Opera and Yueju Opera into gameplay, which present traditional culture in immersive ways to global audiences.
\n
According to the China Audio-Video and Digital Publishing Association, Chinese self-developed games generated $18.56 billion in overseas sales in 2024, up by 13.4 percent year-on-year.
\n
The session underscored that cultural IP incubation is inseparable from both digital innovation and audiences' appetite for authenticity.
\n
As Justyna Katarzyna Szpakowska put it, what resonates most with overseas viewers is not abstract symbols but real lives, daily routines, and human stories, which are reminders of why China's cultural IPs are increasingly finding resonance abroad.

By June, it hosted around 770,000 original stories, created by more than 400,000 overseas authors in their native languages, according to the group, reflecting the Chinese web novel model being localized worldwide.
\n
Adaptations have further extended the reach of these IPs. The online novel Quanzhi Gaoshou (The King's Avatar) was adapted into an animation and marked its 10th anniversary this July with events co-hosted by the Swiss tourism board. Another hit, Qing Yu Nian (Joy of Life), was adapted into a TV series. Its second season is licensed to the Disney+ streaming platform, bringing Chinese storytelling to international viewers.
\n
Influencer-driven content was also discussed as a growing cultural export. In the session, Qu Tao, vice-president of Joy Media, a multichannel network (MCN) company, says: "Our formula is uniqueness, altruism, and genuine interactions with fans." When these align, the creators established cultural IPs and attract followers.
\n
The company now manages more than 100,000 influencers. Domestically, it helped amplify Harbin's winter tourism (in Heilongjiang province) boom through influencer-driven videos. The company is now exporting the model globally.
\n
Qu tells China Daily that the company is working with influencers from Poland, Russia and Georgia to share their daily experiences in China, while also training domestic creators to bring Chinese cultural heritage to international platforms.
\n
"The overseas effect of online influencers is a significant trend. Many people abroad have a limited understanding of China," Qu says. "Influencers are now presenting China from grassroots perspectives in an authentic way."
\n
Games, another powerful cultural carrier, act as translators and amplifiers of culture, says Yu Ruichao, vice-president of Tencent Interactive Entertainment. He cites examples such as a King of Glory skin (for game characters) inspired by Dunhuang flying apsaras and the integration of Kunqu Opera and Yueju Opera into gameplay, which present traditional culture in immersive ways to global audiences.
\n
According to the China Audio-Video and Digital Publishing Association, Chinese self-developed games generated $18.56 billion in overseas sales in 2024, up by 13.4 percent year-on-year.
\n
The session underscored that cultural IP incubation is inseparable from both digital innovation and audiences' appetite for authenticity.
\n
As Justyna Katarzyna Szpakowska put it, what resonates most with overseas viewers is not abstract symbols but real lives, daily routines, and human stories, which are reminders of why China's cultural IPs are increasingly finding resonance abroad.

Under the soft glow of stage lights, an ethereal ballerina glides across the polished floor, her fellow dancers' movements a symphony of grace and precision. Each leap and pirouette weaves a tapestry of emotion. The audience, enraptured by this dance of ephemeral beauty, holds its collective breath, savoring the fleeting magic of the performance.
\n
It was the first time the National Ballet of China had presented its original ballet, A Dream of Red Mansions, overseas, and the fusion of a Chinese literary masterpiece with a Western dance performance drew thunderous applause on Sept 20 at the 27th Bangkok International Festival of Dance and Music — one of Asia's most influential events of its kind.
\n
"Bangkok, which has many students of ballet, is the first stop of the show's overseas debut. This drama will present them with a fusion of Eastern and Western arts through our efforts to bring Chinese classical literature to the ballet stage. It also serves as a cultural bridge promoting exchanges between China and Thailand," says Zhu Yan, director of the National Ballet of China.
\n
The ballet was adapted from A Dream of Red Mansions — considered one of the four great classic novels of Chinese literature — written by Cao Xueqin during the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Dancing on tiptoe in the attire of Chinese classical operas, more than 80 performers translated the classic Chinese novel into a visual spectacle of dance, set design and costumes.
\n
The story centers on Jia Baoyu, a young man from an aristocratic Chinese family, and his tangled relationships with Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai. It is an epic tale of the tragic romance between Jia and Lin, as well as the rise and fall of the Jia family, and by extension, Chinese society in the 18th century.
\n
"I think expressing Chinese aesthetics and charm in the form of ballet is the most challenging part of this work. The power of a classic literary masterpiece and its influence on the Chinese, as well as the world, is immense. Instead of presenting the entire storyline, we need to express its spiritual essence beyond the text and let the art of dance play its role," says choreographer Tong Ruirui.
\n
She says adapting A Dream of Red Mansions for the stage was the ultimate ambition of many directors, and she felt honored and grateful to use this Western art form to revive a Chinese literary classic, which lent the entire production a melancholic and dreamlike atmosphere.
\n
To interpret classical Chinese literature with ballet — the first attempt in her career — Tong stuck to the principle that each character should be rooted in traditional Chinese culture, but their personality traits would be illustrated through the language of ballet.
\n
"We made some explorations and combinations in this work, and I believe that the language of both literature and ballet is universal. Through art and this work, everyone can understand traditional Chinese culture. They can see how we have expressed our own Chinese stories with Western techniques and let them shine on the international stage," she adds.
\n
To convey the subtle emotions of the characters through dance, principal dancer Qiu Yunting, who performs the leading female role of Lin Daiyu, says she has read the classic literary work and reviewed the TV adaptations of the story many times.
\n
"Lin is one of the most eye-catching characters in the story, who is well known not only in China but also overseas. Her role carried high expectations, so I felt a responsibility to bring the image of Lin to audiences with a fresh look," says Qiu.
\n
Unlike previous portrayals of the heroine Lin, which often had a melancholic feel, Qiu's interpretation in the performance was much bolder and filled with more energy.
\n
"I want the audience to see a different Daiyu. There are some beautiful qualities in her. In the scene of Daiyu burying the flowers, she is no longer a very weak girl. There is some firmness in her heart, and she has some strength," Qiu adds.
\n
For the dancers who have been practicing classical ballet since childhood, the ballet technique emphasizing a straight back, an open chest and an upward extension went against the traditional Chinese expression, which is more implicit, downward and deeply rooted in the land.
\n
"We are striving to integrate and express two cultures in one work. When Lin Daiyu buries the flowers, she leaves all her tears in the earth. When she stands on her tiptoes, it is a spiritual elevation," Qiu says.
\n
To stage the premiere outside of China, the National Ballet of China brought six 12-meter containers of costumes, sets, lights and props to Bangkok, which included 1.5 metric tons of stage background installations.
\n
The stage design for this performance was also exceptionally ingenious. In the center of the stage was a 12-meter-wide, 8.5-meter-high rotating backdrop, with one side being a red-and-gold mottled panel symbolizing wealth and prosperity, while the other side was pure white, representing a vast and pristine land.
\n
One side symbolized abundance and the other emptiness. In the center of the wall was a round opening reminiscent of the doors of Suzhou gardens in China. Through it, the audience could glimpse the fates of the characters in the play.
\n
"The performance really showcased the highest level of ballet in China. It's a successful attempt to tell a Chinese story with a Western art style. The lighting and stage setting are very impressive, which enhanced the storytelling and brought a strong emotional impact," said Surichai, a 42-year-old Thai resident who came to see the drama on Sept 20 with her husband.
\n
As a fan of Chinese culture, she knows about the romantic love between Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu. "Beyond love, the performance brought us traditional ideas and thoughts of people from the Qing Dynasty. With the subtitles, the drama is easier for us to understand," she added.
\n
The drama also attracted many young people who love ballet. Among them, 17-year-old Sarintip Thipjumnun, from Dance Plus Academy in Bangkok, said she was excited about seeing this high-level ballet performance during the festival.
\n
One day before the show, she was among dozens of young ballet students who joined a ballet class with Li Wentao, the dancer who plays the leading role of Jia Baoyu in the drama. The free one-hour master class is a regular feature of the National Ballet of China's overseas performances.
\n
"It was a very precious chance to learn with such top-level dancers. During the class, we had face-to-face communication and received (Li's) professional guidance. His expertise, patience and kindness are so impressive. The impression was even stronger after I saw his performance onstage," Sarintip said.
\n
Having studied ballet since the age of 4, Sarintip said the fantastic performance by Chinese dancers and the master class encouraged her to continue learning. "Art brings us delicate and wonderful experiences in life. I hope more such events with top artists from overseas can be organized in the future," she added.

Omar Dinia, deputy director of strategy and cooperation at Morocco's Ministry of Tourism, Handicrafts, and Social and Solidarity Economy, had a blast during his visit to Shenzhen in mid-September.
\n
"What impressed me most was the drone that delivered the coffee we ordered in a park. I have visited all the continents of the world but have never experienced anything like this in any other country. It was truly a dream-like experience," he says.
\n
In the city of South China's Guangdong province, Dinia also visited several renowned cultural landmarks, including the Shenzhen Museum of Contemporary Art and Urban Planning, Lianhuashan Park and Nantou ancient town, as well as the world's first 6S robot store and Tencent headquarters.
\n
He says he was amazed to learn how much Shenzhen has changed in the past four decades, transforming from a small fishing village to an international metropolis.
\n
Dinia is among more than 20 high-level officials, experts and scholars from the culture and tourism authorities of 11 Arab countries, including Egypt, Algeria and Morocco, as well as representatives from the Secretariat of the League of Arab States who joined the 2025 Training Program for Arab Officials and Scholars in Culture and Tourism.
\n
The Shenzhen experience was part of the program that was hosted by the Bureau of International Exchange and Cooperation of China's Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
\n
Concluding on Sept 24, the initiative took participants to Shenzhen and Beijing, where they explored sites of historical and cultural significance, sampled new cultural and tourism products, and attended lectures delivered by Chinese experts and academics.
\n
According to the host, the training program was designed to enhance Arab officials' and scholars' understanding of Chinese modernization and create opportunities for China and Arab countries to explore new models of cooperation in culture and tourism.
\n
Officials on both sides agree that the program reflects the fast-growing ties between China and Arab states.
\n
The two sides have achieved substantial outcomes through a variety of joint initiatives, including co-hosting culture and tourism years, art festivals, and performances of traditional music.
\n
At the China-Arab Culture and Tourism Cooperation Conference held in Beijing on Sept 19, which gathered all program participants, Maha Abdullah Alsenan, Saudi Arabia's deputy minister for Research and Cultural Heritage Affairs, highlighted the importance of such cultural exchanges.
\n
The Saudi-Chinese Cultural Year 2025 aims to celebrate this friendship that carries the visions and expectations of both sides and is dedicated to realizing sustainable development that reflects shared cultural values and keeps pace with global transformations, Alsenan notes.
\n
"We are delighted to see that, building on these partnerships, our mutual understanding continues to deepen. Through sustained efforts, we have built bridges of communication, achieving greater cultural integration and shared understanding via cultural projects, programs and initiatives — all made possible by the joint efforts of Saudi Arabia and China," she says.
\n
She also highlights the launch of a new research fund, established in collaboration with the China-Arab Cultural and Tourism Cooperation Research Center. The fund supports projects across multiple dimensions of bilateral relations, including cultural heritage, history, language, literature, translation, performing and visual arts, digital culture, cultural economics, and the creative industries.
\n
"We received 153 applications from scholars in Saudi Arabia, China and other countries. Today, we are pleased to announce that 20 scholars will receive grants — 10 funded by the Saudi Ministry of Culture and another 10 by the China-Arab research center," she says.
\n
In addition, the Saudi side is also supporting four research projects in partnership with Peking University, aimed at promoting the exchange of experience and knowledge. Seminars and lectures have been held in both countries to enhance intellectual and cultural dialogue.
\n
"We firmly believe in the importance of building strong partnerships with China," she says.
\n
Yousef Bader Meshari, director of the culture and dialogue of civilizations department at the Secretariat of the League of Arab States and Arab Secretariat of the China-Arab Center for the Global Civilization Initiative, describes the program as a significant step in implementing the outcomes of both the inaugural China-Arab States Summit held in 2022 and the 10th ministerial conference of the China-Arab States Cooperation Forum in 2024.
\n
"The Arab region is home to profound historical heritage, rich religious traditions, and a time-honored cultural landscape, while China is celebrated for its profound civilization and globally renowned cultural and tourism resources," Meshari says.
\n
"Collaboration in culture and tourism between China and Arab countries offers a strategic opportunity to deepen civilizational dialogue, expand economic and cultural partnerships, and foster exchanges — particularly in the domain of human resources," he adds.
\n
In recent years, the two sides have launched numerous joint initiatives that strengthened mutual understanding, boosted tourism flows and encouraged investment, he notes.
\n
Huang He, deputy director of the Shanghai Museum, shares that the recently concluded On Top of the Pyramid: The Civilization of Ancient Egypt exhibition attracted over 2.77 million visitors for a period of 13 months, setting a new world record for attendance at a paid special exhibition in a museum.
\n
Organized in collaboration with the Supreme Council of Antiquities of the Arab Republic of Egypt, this exhibition featured 788 ancient Egyptian artifacts on loan from seven major Egyptian institutions. More than 95 percent of the artifacts were exhibited in Asia for the very first time, Huang says. "Not only was this exhibition the largest and highest-caliber showcase of ancient Egyptian civilization ever held in Asia, but it also marked the first time a Chinese national museum partnered directly with the Egyptian government to present a world-class archaeological exhibition unveiling the latest discoveries from ancient Egypt," Huang says.
\n
The event also generated a noticeable tourism boost. During the exhibition period, Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities reported a 65 percent increase in Chinese tourists visiting the country.
\n
In terms of revenue, the exhibition generated over 760 million yuan ($106.5 million), including more than 320 million yuan from ticket sales and over 440 million yuan from cultural creative products and derivative activities, according to museum figures.
\n
"It has set a new benchmark for the integrated development of culture, tourism, commerce, sports and exhibitions," Huang adds.
\n
He believes the success of the exhibition provided a replicable model for global cultural exchange and mutual learning.
\n
"The Shanghai Museum will continue to deepen communication and exchanges with museums around the world, particularly by strengthening practical cooperation with Arab countries in the field of cultural heritage," Huang says.
\n
As 2025 marks the China-Saudi Arabia Year of Culture, the museum is already deeply involved in curatorial discussions with the Saudi side, contributing expertise in areas such as ancient Chinese calligraphy, painting, ceramics and seal impressions, he says.
\n
Ji Jinbiao, president of Beijing International Studies University, points out that the exchange and cooperation between China and Arab nations are deeply rooted in history, dating back more than 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220) when royal emissary Zhang Qian's missions to the West opened the ancient Silk Road.
\n
"In the 14th century, the Moroccan traveler Ibn Battuta visited China, and his writings in The Rihla have been widely celebrated for centuries. Entering the 21st century, cultural and tourism cooperation between China and Arab countries has continued to deepen and has now reached an unprecedented level," Ji says.
\n
He emphasizes that today's cooperation has evolved into a systematic endeavor that promotes civilizational dialogue, supports national strategies, drives economic development and strengthens grassroots friendship.
\n
"At the same time, China-Arab cultural and tourism cooperation has transcended bilateral dimensions, becoming an important pathway for implementing the Global Civilization Initiative (proposed by China in 2023) and advancing the building of a China-Arab community with a shared future," Ji says.

According to the host, the training program was designed to enhance Arab officials' and scholars' understanding of Chinese modernization and create opportunities for China and Arab countries to explore new models of cooperation in culture and tourism.
\n
Officials on both sides agree that the program reflects the fast-growing ties between China and Arab states.
\n
The two sides have achieved substantial outcomes through a variety of joint initiatives, including co-hosting culture and tourism years, art festivals, and performances of traditional music.
\n
At the China-Arab Culture and Tourism Cooperation Conference held in Beijing on Sept 19, which gathered all program participants, Maha Abdullah Alsenan, Saudi Arabia's deputy minister for Research and Cultural Heritage Affairs, highlighted the importance of such cultural exchanges.
\n
The Saudi-Chinese Cultural Year 2025 aims to celebrate this friendship that carries the visions and expectations of both sides and is dedicated to realizing sustainable development that reflects shared cultural values and keeps pace with global transformations, Alsenan notes.
\n
"We are delighted to see that, building on these partnerships, our mutual understanding continues to deepen. Through sustained efforts, we have built bridges of communication, achieving greater cultural integration and shared understanding via cultural projects, programs and initiatives — all made possible by the joint efforts of Saudi Arabia and China," she says.
\n
She also highlights the launch of a new research fund, established in collaboration with the China-Arab Cultural and Tourism Cooperation Research Center. The fund supports projects across multiple dimensions of bilateral relations, including cultural heritage, history, language, literature, translation, performing and visual arts, digital culture, cultural economics, and the creative industries.
\n
"We received 153 applications from scholars in Saudi Arabia, China and other countries. Today, we are pleased to announce that 20 scholars will receive grants — 10 funded by the Saudi Ministry of Culture and another 10 by the China-Arab research center," she says.
\n
In addition, the Saudi side is also supporting four research projects in partnership with Peking University, aimed at promoting the exchange of experience and knowledge. Seminars and lectures have been held in both countries to enhance intellectual and cultural dialogue.
\n
"We firmly believe in the importance of building strong partnerships with China," she says.
\n
Yousef Bader Meshari, director of the culture and dialogue of civilizations department at the Secretariat of the League of Arab States and Arab Secretariat of the China-Arab Center for the Global Civilization Initiative, describes the program as a significant step in implementing the outcomes of both the inaugural China-Arab States Summit held in 2022 and the 10th ministerial conference of the China-Arab States Cooperation Forum in 2024.
\n
"The Arab region is home to profound historical heritage, rich religious traditions, and a time-honored cultural landscape, while China is celebrated for its profound civilization and globally renowned cultural and tourism resources," Meshari says.
\n
"Collaboration in culture and tourism between China and Arab countries offers a strategic opportunity to deepen civilizational dialogue, expand economic and cultural partnerships, and foster exchanges — particularly in the domain of human resources," he adds.
\n
In recent years, the two sides have launched numerous joint initiatives that strengthened mutual understanding, boosted tourism flows and encouraged investment, he notes.
\n
Huang He, deputy director of the Shanghai Museum, shares that the recently concluded On Top of the Pyramid: The Civilization of Ancient Egypt exhibition attracted over 2.77 million visitors for a period of 13 months, setting a new world record for attendance at a paid special exhibition in a museum.
\n
Organized in collaboration with the Supreme Council of Antiquities of the Arab Republic of Egypt, this exhibition featured 788 ancient Egyptian artifacts on loan from seven major Egyptian institutions. More than 95 percent of the artifacts were exhibited in Asia for the very first time, Huang says. "Not only was this exhibition the largest and highest-caliber showcase of ancient Egyptian civilization ever held in Asia, but it also marked the first time a Chinese national museum partnered directly with the Egyptian government to present a world-class archaeological exhibition unveiling the latest discoveries from ancient Egypt," Huang says.
\n
The event also generated a noticeable tourism boost. During the exhibition period, Egypt's Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities reported a 65 percent increase in Chinese tourists visiting the country.
\n
In terms of revenue, the exhibition generated over 760 million yuan ($106.5 million), including more than 320 million yuan from ticket sales and over 440 million yuan from cultural creative products and derivative activities, according to museum figures.
\n
"It has set a new benchmark for the integrated development of culture, tourism, commerce, sports and exhibitions," Huang adds.
\n
He believes the success of the exhibition provided a replicable model for global cultural exchange and mutual learning.
\n
"The Shanghai Museum will continue to deepen communication and exchanges with museums around the world, particularly by strengthening practical cooperation with Arab countries in the field of cultural heritage," Huang says.
\n
As 2025 marks the China-Saudi Arabia Year of Culture, the museum is already deeply involved in curatorial discussions with the Saudi side, contributing expertise in areas such as ancient Chinese calligraphy, painting, ceramics and seal impressions, he says.
\n
Ji Jinbiao, president of Beijing International Studies University, points out that the exchange and cooperation between China and Arab nations are deeply rooted in history, dating back more than 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220) when royal emissary Zhang Qian's missions to the West opened the ancient Silk Road.
\n
"In the 14th century, the Moroccan traveler Ibn Battuta visited China, and his writings in The Rihla have been widely celebrated for centuries. Entering the 21st century, cultural and tourism cooperation between China and Arab countries has continued to deepen and has now reached an unprecedented level," Ji says.
\n
He emphasizes that today's cooperation has evolved into a systematic endeavor that promotes civilizational dialogue, supports national strategies, drives economic development and strengthens grassroots friendship.
\n
"At the same time, China-Arab cultural and tourism cooperation has transcended bilateral dimensions, becoming an important pathway for implementing the Global Civilization Initiative (proposed by China in 2023) and advancing the building of a China-Arab community with a shared future," Ji says.

Participants chat at a parallel event of the Beijing Culture Forum held on Tuesday.
\n
Digital technology is empowering the protection and utilization of cultural relics, while also raising new challenges for communication, according to speakers from China and abroad at a parallel panel during the 2025 Beijing Culture Forum on Tuesday.
\n
"Preservation and Inheritance: Digital Empowerment for Cultural Heritages", held as part of the two-day forum in Beijing, brought together experts and heritage professionals to explore the growing role of digital tools in cultural heritage preservation.
\n
Rao Quan, director of the National Cultural Heritage Administration, notes that the current wave of digitization is merging with economic and social development at an unprecedented speed and scale. Digital technologies, he says, are not only reshaping traditional modes of production and daily life, but also accelerating shifts in human cognition. At the same time, they are opening significant new avenues for the protection of cultural heritage.
\n
He explains that digital management of relics has become increasingly widespread, allowing for more standardized, systematic and efficient collection and storage.
\n
The Palace Museum in Beijing, for instance, has created digital records for over 1 million artifacts. The Dunhuang Academy, which oversees World Heritage Site Mogao Caves, has compiled digital information on 300 caves, and Longmen Grottoes Academy has established digital protective archives for 52 of the key caves of the Longmen Grottoes, another World Heritage Site. These resources, Rao says, provide valuable references for long-term protection.
\n
Digital technologies are also enhancing how visitors engage with cultural heritage. Chu Xiaobo, director of the Shanghai Museum, highlights the success of the digital exhibition Poetic Jiangnan (referring to the southern regions of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River) organized last year.
\n
Drawing on two decades of research into ancient Chinese paintings, curators used digital tools to build an immersive environment that traced the evolution of Jiangnan landscape paintings from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms (907-960) to the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911).
\n
"Since opening, the exhibition has been warmly received by visitors, especially families and international tourists, becoming a popular 'check-in spot' in the museum," says Chu.
\n
Last year, Beijing Central Axis, an ensemble of palaces, ceremonial and public buildings, roads and other aspects governing the overall layout of the old city area of the Chinese capital, was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
\n
To bring its history closer to the public, the Beijing Central Axis Heritage Conservation Center, led by its director Jin Xibin, developed the WeChat mini program Cloud Central Axis, which uses cloud technology to let users experience the past and present of the axis from their phones.
\n
Through the app, users can have a bird's-eye view of the city's changing layouts, hear the sounds of bells and drums echoing through the old streets, or "fly" over the landscape to appreciate the ancient wisdom behind Beijing's selection as the imperial capital.
\n
This year, an English version of the program was also launched.
\n
"The program connects the axis with a wider audience and enables fine traditional Chinese culture to reach abroad in a more vivid and lively way," says Jin.
\n
Yet, alongside these advances come new challenges. Matthieu Guevel, UNESCO's director of communications, warns that the increasing sophistication of digital tools complicates the communication of academic findings. Big data, he explains, can reinforce pre-existing views rather than open new perspectives.
\n
"If in the past we were separated by physical walls, now we are overwhelmed by information. What stands before us are not towering walls, but mirrors. Our screens are no longer windows opening to the world, but mirrors that only reflect what's already in our minds.
\n
"Algorithms reinforce our viewpoints by continuously pushing content that aligns with them, and we interact only with people who share our opinions, thus narrowing our perspectives," he says.
\n
Now the challenge is, how to translate academic discoveries into proper expressions on open platforms, making them accessible to a broader audience, he adds.

\n
It was Nov 5, 1924. The last emperor of China, Puyi, was suddenly driven out of the Forbidden City by a warlord, when the country suffered from a lasting and deep social crisis.
\n
More than 12 years after the monarchy fell, Puyi, who was allowed to keep his royal title within the compound surrounded by red walls — the inner court of the Forbidden City — and, in fact, had never left — finally bid farewell to this enclave of a long-gone imperial era.
\n
For this mighty architectural complex, which dates back to 1420 and spans over 720,000 square meters in the heart of the ancient city of Beijing, a new epoch had come.
\n
The Palace Museum was established the following October: The city was no longer "forbidden". A curtain was lifted on a century-long story of perseverance, diligence and dedication to safeguarding history.
\n
In 1933, Japanese invaders had arrived at the foot of the Great Wall. As war loomed over Beijing, a massive rescue mission was launched to relocate more than 13,000 boxes of precious cultural relics from the Palace Museum southwards, and later westwards, to protect them from destruction.
\n
None of the treasures were destroyed in the yearslong trek across half of China, which was a miracle. Yet, many large pieces had to remain behind. The most significant "relic" of all — the breathtaking Forbidden City itself — could never be moved.
\n
During the years when Beijing fell into enemy hands, the museum's custodians undertook an unprecedented surveying and mapping of the palace complex, a pinnacle of ancient Chinese construction. At the very least, they hoped to leave references for future generations, should this cultural wonder disappear in war.
\n
The museum seemed blessed. Against all odds, it survived, remaining through hardship and upheavals, until it finally embraced the dawn of new times.
\n
Since 1949, the year when New China was founded, comprehensive inventories, studies, and the restoration of its collections have continued. Renovation of ancient architecture breathed new life into these buildings, which also hosted milestone exhibitions one after another. Over the decades, more than 280,000 cultural relics were added to the inventory of the former royal collections, through purchases, donations and transfers. Today, the Palace Museum holds more than 1.95 million items, according to statistics released this month — the largest collection of any museum in China.
\n
These include paintings, calligraphic works, jades, bronze wares, gold and silver wares, enamels, embroideries, and countless other treasures. Here, it is a microcosm of an over 5,000-year-old Chinese civilization, aged yet robust.
\n
The Palace Museum was inscribed onto the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1987, one of the first entries from China. It has always been a gem of human civilization as well, and functioned as a key platform of cross-cultural exchange. Even in the 1930s, when the threat of war intensified, the museum still hosted monumental overseas exhibitions in London and Moscow, displaying the splendor of Chinese art and culture to the world.
\n
In more recent years, international engagement has only deepened. Since 2012, the museum has organized more than 50 exhibitions of cultural relics from other countries and regions, and joined more than 20 overseas exhibitions.
\n
Boundaries of the Forbidden City have been continuously "expanded". Over half of its inventory, or about 1 million relics, have been digitized, offering many possibilities for "exhibitions" online or in virtual spaces.
\n
As the centennial anniversary of founding of the Palace Museum approaches, it is worthwhile to look back on its extraordinary journey and to nurture even greater expectations for this place of miracles.

Growing up as a Han girl in Central China, I rarely met anyone from Xinjiang in my hometown. To me, as a child, it was a distant place where everyone seemed to know how to sing and dance.
\n
This week, that distant place became real as I came to Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang, to cover events marking the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.
\n
Since my arrival on Monday, I have been surrounded by a strong festive atmosphere in the city, which reached its climax on Thursday with a grand gathering.
\n
From early morning, when the sky was still dark, I found myself immersed in the local spirit — an Uygur song softly hummed by a taxi driver and a cheerful whistle from a pedestrian set the tone for the day.
\n
By the time I reached the venue, the light of dawn was already breaking through the wispy clouds, shining on the people gathering for the celebration.
\n
Among them, a group of men and women wearing round hats and splendid costumes — distinctly Kazakh and Uygur in style — instantly caught my eye.
\n
They turned out to be villagers from Gejiagou in Urumqi's Shuimogou district — the eldest 64 and the youngest 23. They told me that dressing in their finest clothes was their way of expressing joy and pride at being part of such a historic occasion.
\n
One of them, Sharmuha Satihaz, said that to celebrate the anniversary, the entire village had been decorated with lanterns and little red flags.
\n
"The clothes we wear today were prepared as if we were grooms and brides, to show our gratitude for the happy life we now enjoy," she said, her eyes gleaming. "And, I believe, our future will only get better if we continue to contribute in our own way."
\n
According to Sharmuha, the lives of the villagers have greatly improved over the years. They now earn more, thanks to the courtyard economy, which encourages rural families to carry out small-scale agricultural production at home, and thanks to specialty industries, such as camel milk processing plants, as well as the integration of agriculture, culture and tourism.
\n
Her words echoed a sentiment I've heard repeatedly this week, that is, over the past 70 years, people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang have, with unyielding spirit, turned deserts into farmland and borderlands into cherished homes.
\n
That spirit also reflected in the voice of 14-year-old Ekda Adil, a ninth-grade student at Urumqi No 66 Middle School, who told me her story.
\n
Ekda said she left her hometown in Shache county in Xinjiang's Kashgar prefecture in 2023 to study in Urumqi under a preferential policy, and goes home once every six months. "Each time I go back, I notice new changes," she said.
\n
During her most recent visit in July, she said she witnessed fewer dust storms and saw better infrastructure in her hometown. Located near the Taklimakan Desert, Kashgar is an area prone to sand and dust storms, especially during spring and summer.
\n
Shache, often known as the "home of Chinese almonds", had once primarily depended on agriculture. Today, specialty industries are helping its residents find jobs closer to home and earn higher incomes.
\n
Ekda said her older brother, who graduated from university this year, also plans to stay in their hometown. He is now studying e-commerce, with the hope of bringing Xinjiang's local products to consumers across the country and beyond, she added.
\n
When speaking of her own future, her voice was steady and firm. "I want to use what I've learned to help build a better Xinjiang," she told me, adding, "And I also hope that more people will come to visit, enjoy our beautiful scenery, and learn about our culture and traditions."
\n
As I listened to the teenager, I had a brief flashback of my childhood idea of Xinjiang being a magical place where people always sang and danced.
\n
This week, I saw that image come alive, but along with so much more. Behind the singing, dancing and colorful costumes lie pride, hope and determination. Today, Xinjiang for me is no longer that distant place in my imagination, but a living, changing land, full of happy voices that tell its beautiful story.

President Xi Jinping announced China's new climate pledges to the world on Wednesday, underscoring the country's consistent commitment to global climate governance.
\n
In a video address to the United Nations Climate Summit, Xi said that by 2035, China will reduce economy-wide net greenhouse gas emissions by 7 percent to 10 percent from peak levels, while striving to do even better.
\n
He noted that the year 2025 marks the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement on climate change, calling it a pivotal year for countries to submit their new Nationally Determined Contributions, or NDCs.
\n
NDCs, which are at the heart of the Paris Agreement and the achievement of its long-term goals, embody efforts by each country to reduce national emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change.
\n
China submitted its initial set of NDCs under the Paris Agreement in 2015, and updated the targets in 2020, vowing to peak its carbon emissions before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060.
\n
Outlining China's latest NDCs targeting 2035, Xi also highlighted goals to increase the share of nonfossil fuels in total energy consumption to over 30 percent, and to expand the installed capacity of wind and solar power to more than six times the 2020 levels, striving to bring the total to 3,600 gigawatts.
\n
China's new NDC targets also include scaling up the total forest stock volume to over 24 billion cubic meters, making new energy vehicles the mainstream in sales of new vehicles, expanding the National Carbon Emissions Trading Market to cover major high-emission sectors, and basically establishing a climate-adaptive society.
\n
The latest updates mark the first time that China has committed to absolute emissions reduction targets covering all economic sectors and all greenhouse gases.
\n
In recent years, China has made tremendous efforts to deliver on its commitments to emissions reduction. The nation's investment in clean energy reached over $625 billion in 2024, accounting for one-third of the global total and nearly doubling its 2015 investment, according to a report released at an energy industry forum in June.
\n
Dimitri de Boer, director for China at environmental organization ClientEarth, said: "China has committed to continuing its rapid deployment of renewable energy and reducing emissions from the peak. If recent trends continue, the NDC targets will be met and exceeded."
\n
He added that China's "low-cost, high-quality green technologies are the greatest breakthrough in the global fight against climate change. By accelerating innovation in renewable energy, electric vehicles and clean tech, China is proving that sustainable growth and climate action can go hand in hand".
\n
In his speech on Wednesday, Xi pointed out that "green and low-carbon transition is the trend of our time" and urged the international community to push for the formulation and delivery of NDCs.
\n
Citing the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities, he called on developed nations to take the lead in emission reduction and provide more financial and technological support to developing countries.
\n
It is important that countries strengthen international coordination in green technologies and industries to address the shortfall in green production capacity and ensure the free flow of quality green products globally, so that the benefits of green development can reach all corners of the world, he said.

President Xi Jinping announced China's new climate pledges to the world on Wednesday, underscoring the country's consistent commitment to global climate governance.
\n
In a video address to the United Nations Climate Summit, Xi said that by 2035, China will reduce economy-wide net greenhouse gas emissions by 7 percent to 10 percent from peak levels, while striving to do even better.
\n
He noted that the year 2025 marks the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement on climate change, calling it a pivotal year for countries to submit their new Nationally Determined Contributions, or NDCs.
\n
NDCs, which are at the heart of the Paris Agreement and the achievement of its long-term goals, embody efforts by each country to reduce national emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change.
\n
China submitted its initial set of NDCs under the Paris Agreement in 2015, and updated the targets in 2020, vowing to peak its carbon emissions before 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality before 2060.

The 3rd Traditional Sports International Festival, featuring Go, wushu, qigong, dragon and lion dances, and kite flying, attracted participants from all over the world to not only compete, but also engage in cultural exchanges.
\n
A spectacular fusion of athleticism and culture, the 3rd Traditional Sports International Festival — held last week in Jiangyin, Jiangsu province — provided a unique platform to experience China's traditional sports and cultures, as well as encourage exchanges between the nearly 800 athletes from 39 countries and regions who participated.
\n
This year's festival saw a notable increase in scale, with participants competing in five diverse disciplines: Go, wushu, qigong, dragon and lion dances, and kite flying.
\n
Sun Haoran, director of the operations and development department of the International Sports Exchange Center of the General Administration of Sport of China, explained that the featured sports are deeply influenced by Chinese philosophy and a traditional approach to health.
\n
"The festival aims to immerse participants from around the world in the essence of China's traditional culture through a range of activities, including competitions, performances and cultural workshops," Sun said.
\n
Throughout the three-day event, participants enjoyed the opportunity to engage not only in fierce competition, but also in cultural exchanges, leaving with a deeper appreciation of traditional Chinese sports and the philosophies that underpin them.
\n
One of the key highlights of this year's festival was the inclusion of kite flying, a visually spectacular addition to the competition. Traditional Chinese kites, elegantly designed with modern influences, danced in the skies above crowds of captivated spectators. Kites shaped like giant dragons, octopuses and butterflies filled the air, with participants from around the world showcasing their kite-flying skills.
\n
One competitor from the United States noted the profound history behind Chinese kites, saying that this competition opened their eyes to the art and skill involved.
\n
The kites brought by all the teams were not just designed to look good on display, but also to form intricate patterns when in flight.
\n
He Jinquan from the Jiangsu team claimed victory in the medium-sized dragon kite category with a score of 74.87, while the Tianjin team's Yu Quanshun took top honors in the rigid-winged kite category with a score of 81.35.
\n
The dragon and lion dance competitions also proved to be a major draw. Teams performed both freestyle and traditional routines, blending the ancient art of dragon and lion dancing with modern stage techniques.
\n
This year's performances saw both local and international teams pushing the boundaries of creativity, while maintaining the cultural integrity of the sport.
\n
Across the freestyle and traditional competitions in the dragon dance, the big winners were the Xiamen Institute of Technology and Pingdingshan University.
\n
The Go competition also highlighted the growing global appeal of the ancient Chinese strategy game. Featuring both open and overseas categories, the tournament attracted top players from around the world, with impressive performances showcasing the strategic depth and cultural significance of the game.
\n
One participant from Singapore, who had competed in the previous two editions of the festival, noted that the competition had grown in both scale and cultural diversity, remarking that it was clear that Go's influence is spreading globally, and that it was great to see more international players taking part.
\n
The festival also gave athletes the chance to explore Jiangyin's unique blend of modernity and tradition. Known for its deep integration of sports and tourism, Jiangyin provided a perfect backdrop for the event, allowing competitors to enjoy the local cultural heritage, while testing their competitive skills.
\n
The festival wasn't just about sports — it was a feast of cultural exchange.
\n
During the event, various cultural activities were organized, including visits to local heritage sites and performances featuring traditional Chinese folk music, dance and acrobatics. These activities helped immerse athletes in the rich cultural traditions of China, offering a memorable experience both on and off the competition floor.

President Xi Jinping attends a grand gathering held on Thursday in Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang, to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.
\n
People from different ethnic groups give President Xi Jinping a warm send-off on Thursday at the Urumqi Tianshan International Airport in Xinjiang, as he leaves Urumqi for Beijing after attending events marking the 70th founding anniversary of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.
\n
President Xi Jinping joined local officials and members of the public from all ethnic groups and walks of life on Thursday in a grand gathering in celebration of the 70th founding anniversary of the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, held in Urumqi, the regional capital.
\n
Xi, who is also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, led a central delegation to Xinjiang on Tuesday for a series of events. It was his fourth visit to the region since the 18th National Congress of the CPC in 2012.
\n
The event commenced at around 10:30 am. A congratulatory message from the CPC Central Committee, the National People's Congress Standing Committee, the State Council, the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference National Committee and the Central Military Commission was read out.
\n
On Oct 1, 1955, the Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, now home to over 26 million people of various ethnic groups in Northwest China, was formally established, marking a milestone in the region's development and a new success of the CPC's policies on ethnic affairs.
\n
Addressing the event, Wang Huning, chairman of the CPPCC National Committee and head of the central delegation, said that the achievements made by Xinjiang over the past seven decades have reflected the strengths of the Party's leadership and the socialist system, as well as the strong vitality of the correct and distinctively Chinese approach to handling ethnic affairs.
\n
Xinjiang, together with the rest of the country, won the battle against poverty and completed the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects, Wang said. He noted that ethnic unity in Xinjiang has been further consolidated, and the sense of community for the Chinese nation has been strengthened.
\n
As Xinjiang writes its own chapter in Chinese modernization, Wang urged continuous efforts to uphold and strengthen the Party's overall leadership, maintain social stability, safeguard the unity of the Chinese nation, promote high-quality development centered on the people's well-being, deepen reform and expand opening-up.
\n
He stressed that the stability and unity in Xinjiang have not come easily and must be cherished.
\n
Efforts must be made to consolidate the region's peace, unity and stability, enhance and innovate social governance, and build a strong wall safeguarding social stability and lasting peace and security, Wang said.
\n
Amiragul Abdul, principal of a kindergarten in Bachu county of Kashgar prefecture, shared in her speech at the gathering how she has personally witnessed the tangible changes in Xinjiang.
\n
She recalled that when she first started working, the kindergarten was still a mud-brick building with very basic facilities, and many children of kindergarten age were still playing in the fields.
\n
"Today, all preschool children in rural areas of Xinjiang can enjoy three years of free education, and kindergartens have become the most beautiful buildings in the villages," she said.
\n
"Changes are not just in infrastructure," she added. "Over the years, through the assistance program for Xinjiang, our children have frequently connected via video with peers in kindergartens thousands of kilometers away, singing, dancing and practicing calligraphy together."
\n
In this way, the seeds of fostering a stronger sense of the Chinese nation as one community are taking root in their hearts, she said.
\n
Urumqi bus driver Gu Xiangfeng told the gathering that in his more than 30 years in the industry, he has experienced the rapid changes across the city while driving daily through its streets.
\n
"The city's roads used to be mostly gravel, turning muddy after rain or snow. Today, bumpy dirt roads have become smooth asphalt avenues, and the old buses have been replaced by green new energy vehicles, making commuting far more convenient for the public," Gu said.
\n
"In the days ahead, I will continue to hold the steering wheel, drive safely every kilometer, serve every passenger wholeheartedly, and contribute all my strength to building a modern socialist Xinjiang," he said.
\n
Xi left Urumqi for Beijing on Thursday after attending events in celebration of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the autonomous region.
\n
Instructed by Xi, a central delegation headed by Wang will visit various places in Xinjiang from Thursday to Sunday and convey greetings to people of all ethnic groups and from all sectors of society.
