Greetings to all! Year after year, life opens a fresh chapter. As the new year begins, I extend my best wishes to you from Beijing!The year 2025 marks the completion of China's 14th Five-Year Plan for economic and social development. Over the past five years, we have pressed ahead with enterprise and fortitude, and overcome many difficulties and challenges. We met the targets in the Plan and made solid advances on the new journey of Chinese modernization. Our economic output has crossed thresholds one after another, and it is expected to reach RMB 140 trillion yuan this year. Our economic strength, scientific and technological abilities, defense capabilities, and composite national strength all reached new heights. Clear waters and lush mountains have become a salient feature of our landscape. Our people enjoy a growing sense of gain, happiness and security. The past five years have been a truly remarkable journey, and our accomplishments have not come easily. Your unwavering hard work has made our nation thrive and prosper. I salute you all for your exceptional diligence and invaluable contributions.This year is full of indelible memories. We solemnly commemorated the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, and established the Taiwan Recovery Day. These grand national events were majestic and powerful, and the glory of victory will shine through the pages of history. They are inspiring all the sons and daughters of the Chinese nation to remember history, honor fallen heroes, cherish peace, and create a better future. They are rallying a mighty force for the great rejuvenation of our nation.We sought to energize high-quality development through innovation. We integrated science and technology deeply with industries, and made a stream of new innovations. Many large AI models have been competing in a race to the top, and breakthroughs have been achieved in the research and development of our own chips. All this has turned China into one of the economies with the fastest growing innovation capabilities. The Tianwen 2 probe began its star-chasing journey to explore asteroids and comets. Construction of the hydropower project at the lower reaches of the Yarlung Zangbo River started. China's first aircraft carrier equipped with an electromagnetic catapult system was officially commissioned. Humanoid robots did kung fu kicks, and drones performed spectacular light shows. Inventions and innovations have boosted new quality productive forces and added colorful dimensions to our lives.We endeavored to nurture our spiritual home with cultural development. There was a surging public interest in cultural relics, museums, and intangible cultural heritage. A new Chinese cultural site was added to the World Heritage List. Cultural IPs such as Wukong and Nezha became global hits. The younger generation came to deem classic Chinese culture as the finest form of aesthetic expression. The cultural and tourism sectors thrived. The "super league" football games in our cities and villages attracted numerous fans. Ice and snow sports ignited people's passion for the winter season. Tradition is now embracing modernity, and the Chinese culture is shining in even greater splendor.We joined hands to build a better life and enjoyed it together. I attended celebrations in Xizang and Xinjiang. From the snow-covered plateau to both sides of the Tianshan Mountains, people of various ethnic groups are united as one, like seeds of a pomegranate sticking together. With white khatas and passionate singing and dancing, they expressed their love of the motherland and the happiness they enjoy. No issue of the people is too small; we care for every leaf and tend every branch in the garden of people's well-being. Over the past year, the rights and interests of the workforce in new forms of employment have been better protected, facilities have been upgraded to bring more convenience to the elderly, and each family with childcare needs has received a subsidy of RMB 300 yuan per month. When the happy hum of daily life fills every home, the big family of our nation will go from strength to strength.We continued to embrace the world with open arms. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit in Tianjin and the Global Leaders' Meeting on Women were very successful; and island-wide special customs operations were launched in the Hainan Free Trade Port. To better address climate change, China announced new Nationally Determined Contributions. After announcing the three global initiatives on development, security, and civilization, I put forward the Global Governance Initiative to promote a more just and equitable global governance system. The world today is undergoing both changes and turbulence, and some regions are still engulfed in war. China always stands on the right side of history, and is ready to work with all countries to advance world peace and development and build a community with a shared future for humanity.Not long ago, I attended the opening ceremony of the National Games, and I was glad to see Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao coming together in unity and acting in unison. We should unswervingly implement the policy of One Country, Two Systems, and support Hong Kong and Macao in better integrating into the overall development of our country and maintaining long-term prosperity and stability. We Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Strait share a bond of blood and kinship. The reunification of our motherland, a trend of the times, is unstoppable!Only a strong Communist Party of China can make our country strong. We launched the study and education program on fully implementing the central Party leadership's eight-point decision on improving Party and government conduct. We exercised strict governance of the Party through credible measures, and promoted the Party's self-revolution to fight corruption and advance healthy governance. As a result, the conduct of our Party and government steadily improved. We must stay true to our original aspiration and founding mission, and pursue our goal with perseverance and dedication. We should continue to give a good answer to the question on how to maintain long-term governance put forth in a cave dwelling in Yan'an and prove ourselves worthy of the people's expectation in the new era.The year 2026 marks the beginning of the 15th Five-Year Plan. A successful venture should start with a good plan and with clear goals set. We should focus on our goals and tasks, boost confidence, and build momentum to press ahead. We should take solid steps to promote high-quality development, further deepen reform and opening up across the board, deliver prosperity for all, and write a new chapter in the story of China's miracle.The dream lofty, the journey long-bold strides will get us there. Let us charge ahead like horses with courage, vitality, and energy, fight for our dreams and our happiness, and turn our great vision into beautiful realities.The sun of the new year will soon rise. May our great motherland stand in magnificence! May the fields across the country deliver good harvest! May our nation bathe in the glory of the morning! May you all enjoy life to the fullest, and achieve every success! May all your dreams come true!

英语新闻丨Policy support urged to boost marriage rate

Experts have called for stronger policy and financial support for young people and enhanced efforts to eliminate workplace discrimination to foster a marriage-and birth-friendly society.专家呼吁加强针对年轻人的政策和财政支持,并加大消除职场歧视的力度,以营造一个支持婚姻和生育的社会环境。According to the China Statistical Yearbook, which was published recently by the National Bureau of Statistics, about 6.1 million couples registered their marriage in 2024. Among them, 6.04 million were mainland residents, while 61,900 had spouses who were foreigners, overseas Chinese, or residents of the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions and Taiwan.根据国家统计局近日发布的《中国统计年鉴》,2024年全国登记结婚约610万对。其中,大陆居民登记结婚604万对,与外国公民、海外华侨及港澳台地区居民结婚登记6.19万对。Data shows that the number of marriage registrations has fluctuated in recent years, with a marginal rebound in 2023 after continuous decline since 2013. In the first three quarters of 2025, there has been a modest increase in the number, with about 5.15 million couples registering their marriage, compared with 4.75 million during the same period last year.数据显示,近年来婚姻登记数量呈现波动态势,自2013年持续下降后,2023年出现小幅回升。2025年前三季度登记数量有所增长,约515万对新人完成婚姻登记,较去年同期475万对有所增加。Amid this trend, experts and members of the public have urged more policy and financial support from the government to ease pressures on young people of marriageable age and encourage them to marry and have children.在此趋势下,专家和公众呼吁政府提供更多政策和财政支持,以缓解适婚年龄青年的压力,鼓励他们结婚生子。"From a demographic perspective, China's current population of marriageable age—mainly those born after 1990 and 2000—is shrinking. Young people's views on marriage differ from those of previous generations. They tend to delay marriage or choose not to marry," said Jiang Quanbao, a professor at the Capital University of Economics and Business' School of Labor Economics in Beijing.从人口结构角度看,中国当前适婚年龄段人口——主要是1990后和2000后群体——正在缩减。首都经济贸易大学劳动经济学院教授姜全保指出:“年轻一代的婚姻观与前辈存在差异,他们普遍推迟结婚或选择不结婚。”Social pressures and changing norms also influence marriage decisions, Jiang noted. "Young people face financial pressures from housing expenses, 'bride price', and wedding and childbearing costs. Also, women are becoming more educated and pursuing career success," he said, adding that society has become more inclusive and open-minded about diverse attitudes toward marriage.姜全保指出,社会压力和不断变化的规范也影响着婚姻决策,“年轻人面临住房开支、‘彩礼'以及婚嫁生育等经济压力。同时,女性受教育程度不断提高,更追求事业成功。”他还表示,社会对婚姻的多样化态度也变得更加包容和开放。Zhang Xianling, an associate professor at the Central University of Finance and Economics' School of Sociology and Psychology in Beijing, told Workers' Daily that marriage is traditionally seen as essential for personal growth and carrying forward the family bloodline, but with rapid economic and social transformations, more young people now choose to delay marriage or not marry at all.中央财经大学社会与心理学院副教授张现苓向《工人日报》表示,婚姻传统上被视为个人成长和延续家族血脉的重要途径,但随着经济社会快速转型,如今越来越多的年轻人选择推迟结婚或不结婚。To boost marriage and childbirth rates, relevant authorities have rolled out new supportive measures, includingstreamlining marriage registration procedures.为提高结婚率和生育率,相关主管部门推出了一系列支持性新措施,包括简化结婚登记手续。In May, people of marriageable age were allowed to register for marriage at their place of work or residence instead of their hometowns under the hukou system, also known as household registration.五月起,适婚年龄人群可在工作地或居住地登记结婚,无需再按户籍制度要求返回户籍所在地办理。In July, a financial support policy was introduced to give families 3,600 yuan ($511) per year for each child under the age of 3 years.七月,一项财政支持政策出台,规定每年为每个未满三周岁的儿童提供3600元(约合511美元)的补助。The recently adopted recommendations for formulating China's 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30) also call for promoting positive attitudes toward marriage and childbirth by optimizing supportive policies and incentives.近期通过的关于制定中国第十五个五年规划(2026-2030年)的建议,同时要求通过完善支持性政策和激励措施,促进社会对婚姻和生育的积极态度。Wang Xuanyi, 29, a financial analyst in Beijing, said that for ordinary people, the greatest pressures of marriage include home loans and child-rearing expenses. "For me, as a woman, I may face discrimination in the workplace, as some employers see pregnant employees as a burden."29岁的北京金融分析师王宣怡(音译)表示,对普通人而言,婚姻的最大压力包括房贷和育儿开支,“作为女性,我可能面临职场歧视,因为有些雇主认为怀孕员工是负担。”Wang emphasized that it is important for the government to promote healthier perspectives on marriage and childbirth by alleviating young people's concerns about career development, high housing prices, and a work culture that is not friendly toward childcare.王宣怡(音译)强调,政府应通过缓解年轻人对职业发展、高房价以及不利于育儿的工作文化的担忧,来倡导更健康的婚姻和生育观念。"It will be a long journey, but I think things will get better if we receive stronger policy and financial support from the authorities," she added.她补充道:“这将是一段漫长的旅程,但我认为,如果我们能获得政府更强有力的政策和财政支持,情况将会好转。”Jiang, from Capital University of Economics and Business, said that encouraging young people to marry and have children requires a systematic effort involving financial support, improved public services and guidance on marriage values.来自首都经济贸易大学的姜全保教授指出,鼓励年轻人结婚生子需要系统性举措,包括提供经济支持、完善公共服务以及引导婚姻价值观。"The government can offer special housing subsidies, or low-interest or interest-free housing loans, to the newlyweds. In addition to childcare subsidies, it could explore benefits such as marriage and settlement allowances and tax reductions for couples," he said.政府可为新婚夫妇提供专项住房补贴,或发放低息乃至免息住房贷款。除育儿补贴外,还可探索婚姻定居津贴、夫妻税收减免等福利措施。Jiang said that it is crucial "to fully implement and optimize thematernity leave system and encourage men to share childcare responsibilities to reduce the 'motherhood penalty'—prejudices women may face in the job market due to childbirth".姜全保表示,关键在于“全面落实并完善产假制度,鼓励男性分担育儿责任,以减轻‘母亲惩罚'——即女性因生育而在就业市场可能面临的偏见”。The expert also called for improvements in childcare services, and suggested that schools and residential communities organize lectures for young people on maintaining relationships and managing family tensions.姜全保还呼吁改善托儿服务,并建议学校和社区为年轻人组织讲座,内容涉及维系亲密关系和处理家庭矛盾。"It's important to portray a healthy, fair and happy marriage and family life," he said, adding that trade unions and communities could organize diverse and healthy dating activities or social events for young people.他说:“展现健康、公平、幸福的婚姻和家庭生活很重要。”他还表示,工会和社区可以为年轻人组织多样化、健康的约会活动或社交活动。streamlinev./ˈstriːm.laɪn/简化maternity leaven./məˈtɝː.nə.t̬i/产假bride price彩礼

Japan's tourism sector is bracing for a deepening chill this winter in the wake of erroneous remarks by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi.日本首相高市早苗的失言事件后,日本旅游业正为今年冬季持续降温的局面做准备。As its travel market cools, rival destinations across Asia are moving swiftly to cater to Chinese travelers who had previously planned to visit Japan.随着日本旅游市场遇冷,亚洲各地的竞争对手正迅速行动,以吸引那些原本计划赴日旅游的中国游客。"Since last week, inquiries for Malaysia, Singapore and winter favorites such as Phu Quoc in Vietnam and Bali in Indonesia have increased by 20 to 30 percent week-on-week," said Li Mengran, marketing manager of Beijing-based travel agency Utour.北京优途旅行社市场经理李梦然表示:“上周以来,马来西亚、新加坡以及越南富国岛、印度尼西亚巴厘岛等冬季度假胜地的咨询量较前一周增长了20%至30%。”"These destinations benefit from visa-free policies, diverse tourism resources, abundant flights and flexible tour products suited for families and smaller groups."这些目的地因免签政策、丰富的旅游资源、充足的航班以及适合家庭和小团体游客的灵活旅游产品而备受青睐。Thailand moved quickly to capitalize on the shifting sentiment.泰国借势把握市场情绪变化带来的机遇。On Wednesday, the Beijing office of the Tourism Authority of Thailand emphasized that Thailand "always welcomes visitors from around the world, especially Chinese friends", announcing Chinese-specific New Year promotions and safety standards.周三,泰国旅游局北京办事处强调,泰国“始终欢迎世界各地的游客,特别是中国朋友”,并宣布推出针对中国游客的新春促销活动及安全标准。Beyond Southeast Asia, Russia is also seeking to attract Chinese tourists.除东南亚地区外,俄罗斯也在积极吸引中国游客。Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Nov 18 that visa-free travel for Chinese citizens would be introduced "in the very near future", according to Russian media reports.据俄罗斯媒体报道,俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京11月18日表示,俄方将在“不久的将来”对中国公民实施免签政策。Data from Qunar, a Beijing-based online travel agency, show that the ranking of top outbound destinations has shifted significantly.北京在线旅游平台去哪儿网的数据显示,热门出境旅游目的地的排名已发生显著变化。On Nov 15 and 16, South Korea overtook Japan as the most-booked outbound market, with Seoul becoming the most searched international destination by Nov 17. The surge has been helped by South Korea's visa-free trial program for Chinese tour groups of three or more, effective from Sept 29 through June 30 next year.11月15日至16日,韩国超越日本成为预订量最高的出境旅游市场,首尔更在11月17日跃居最受搜索的国际目的地。此轮增长得益于韩国自9月29日起实施的免签试点政策——针对三人及以上中国旅行团的免签政策将持续至明年6月30日。"From now through the end of 2025, off-peak outbound demand will remain strong," said Yang Han, a researcher at Qunar. "Japan's change has pushed travelers toward more diversified destinations, South Korea now leads, followed by China's Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions nearby, and costeffective Southeast Asian nations such as Thailand, Vietnam and Malaysia."去哪儿网研究员杨涵表示:“从现在到2025年底,淡季出境游需求将持续强劲。日本市场的变化促使游客转向更多元化的目的地,韩国目前位居首位,其次是邻近的中国香港、澳门特别行政区,以及泰国、越南、马来西亚等性价比高的东南亚国家。”Domestic destinations are absorbing some redirected traffic as well. Flight bookings to southern provinces from Nov 19 to Dec 31 had exceeded 4.72 million as of Nov 18, up about 13 percent year-on-year, according to data from aviation service app Umetrip.国内目的地也吸纳了部分转移的客流。据航空服务应用程序航旅纵横数据显示,截至11月18日,11月19日至12月31日期间飞往南方省份的航班预订量已突破472万次,同比增长约13%。The ongoing downturn in Chinese outbound travel to Japan accelerated after multiple Chinese ministries issued travel alerts, reminding Chinese citizens to avoid traveling to Japan in the near term. Major Chinese airlines have subsequently announced free refunds or rescheduling for Japan routes booked before Dec 31. According to a report by China Central Television on Thursday, more than 540,000 flight tickets to Japan have been canceled since Nov 15.中国赴日出境游持续低迷,在多个中国政府部门发布旅行提示、提醒公民近期避免赴日后,这一趋势进一步加速。中国主要航空公司随后宣布,对12月31日前预订的日本航线提供免费退票或改签服务。据中央电视台周四报道,自11月15日以来,已有超过54万张赴日机票被取消。Wu Liyun, professor of the China Academy of Culture and Tourism at Beijing International Studies University, said travelers now increasingly prioritize safety, emotional comfort and geopolitical stability.北京外国语大学中国文化旅游研究院教授吴丽云指出,如今旅客越来越重视安全保障、情感舒适度和地缘政治稳定性。"People want to feel relaxed and happy when traveling. Government attitudes and how locals treat foreign visitors directly shape emotional experience," she said. When safety or political stability weakens, she added, travelers naturally turn elsewhere. "Southeast Asia, Central Asia and many regional destinations offer strong alternatives. Safety and certainty have become crucial, long-term considerations."吴丽云表示:“人们旅行时渴望放松身心、享受快乐。政府态度和当地居民对待外国游客的方式,直接影响着游客的情感体验。”她补充道,当安全或政治稳定性下降时,游客自然会另寻他处。“东南亚、中亚及众多地区性目的地提供了强有力的替代选择。安全与确定性已成为至关重要的长期考量因素”。China is Japan's largest and highest-spending inbound visitor source. In 2024, Chinese mainland tourists accounted for 21.3 percent of all foreign tourist expenditure, according to the Japan National Tourism Organization. Combined visitors from the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong made up 30 percent of Japan's total inbound arrivals between January and September this year.中国是日本最大的入境游客来源地,且消费水平最高。日本国家旅游局数据显示,2024年中国大陆游客支出占日本外国游客总支出的21.3%。今年1月至9月,中国大陆与香港游客合计占日本入境游客总量的30%。The impact is already being felt in Japan's northernmost prefecture. Hokkaido Governor Naomichi Suzuki said at a news conference on Friday that cancellations have appeared across local hotels and flight tickets. "As the winter travel season approaches, the concerns continue to grow."这种影响已在日本最北端的县有所显现。日本北海道知事鈴木直道周五在记者会上表示,当地酒店和机票出现大量取消预订的情况,“随着冬季旅游旺季临近,担忧情绪持续加剧”。Sapporo Stream Hotel in Hokkaido, which normally receives around 3,000 Chinese guests each month, has recorded 70 cancellations since the travel alert. Tour operators in Nagoya and Tokyo report similar losses. One Nagoya-based charter operator said all December bookings from Chinese groups had been canceled. A Tokyo river cruise company that usually serves up to 2,000 Chinese tourists annually saw about 240 people cancel in recent days.位于北海道的札幌溪流酒店每月通常接待约3000名中国游客,自发布旅行警示以来已收到70份取消预订通知。名古屋和东京的旅行社也报告了类似损失。一家名古屋包机运营商表示,12月所有中国团队预订均已取消。一家东京游船公司通常每年接待约2000名中国游客,近日已有约240人取消行程。Japan's Nomura Research Institute estimated that the decline in Chinese tourists could reduce Japan's GDP by 0.36 percent.日本野村综合研究所估计,中国游客的减少可能使日本国内生产总值下降0.36%。Tourism is Japan's second-largest source of foreign exchange, after vehicle exports, Wu of the China Academy of Culture and Tourism added.吴丽云补充道,旅游业是日本第二大外汇来源,仅次于汽车出口。"If Chinese travelers significantly reduce or halt travel to Japan, that consumption disappears," she said. "This will have a huge impact on Japan's foreign-exchange revenue, GDP growth and employment across accommodation, dining, retail and entertainment."吴丽云表示:“如果中国游客大幅减少或停止赴日旅行,这些消费就会消失。这将对日本的外汇收入、GDP增长以及住宿、餐饮、零售和娱乐行业的就业产生巨大影响。”outbound travel出境游visa-free trial program免签试点政策

Hong Kong pedal ace Ceci Lee Sze-wing's successful title defense in the women's road cycling individual event during the ongoing 15th National Games has once again turned the spotlight on the city's cycling team, which is known for its stellar show in premier tournaments.在正在进行的第十五届全运会上,中国香港自行车名将李思颖成功卫冕女子公路自行车个人赛冠军。这一成绩再次让以顶尖赛事出色表现闻名的中国香港自行车队成为焦点。Lee's gold is the second for the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region so far in this year's games, and she is also the third athlete from the SAR to triumph more than once at the National Games after Asian cycling legend Wong Kam-po and Olympian Sarah Lee Wai-sze.李思颖的这枚金牌是中国香港特别行政区在本届全运会上斩获的第二枚金牌。她也成为继亚洲自行车传奇人物黄金宝、奥运冠军李慧诗之后,第三位在全运会上多次夺冠的香港特区运动员。While hard work and discipline form the mainstay of Hong Kong cycling team's medal-winning performances, the application of cutting-edge sports technologies developed through the joint efforts of the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong has been a significant contributor to its success.香港自行车队的奖牌成就固然以刻苦训练和严格自律为核心,但内地与香港联合研发的尖端体育科技应用,同样是其成功的重要助力。A central research facility at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, which specializes in developing high-tech aerodynamic and acoustic surroundings, boasts a low-noise wind tunnel that can simulate a cycling race environment.香港科技大学的一处核心研究设施专注于研发高科技气动与声学环境,其中拥有一座低噪音风洞,可模拟自行车比赛场景。This facility, when further empowered by the nation's Tianhe 2 supercomputer in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, can not only improve cyclists' riding postures, but also assist in the development of the most suitable bike design and cycling bodysuit for them.该设施借助广东省广州市的国家“天河二号”超级计算机进一步赋能,不仅能优化运动员的骑行姿态,还能协助研发最适配他们的自行车设计与骑行服。Zhang Xin, director of the university's Aerodynamics and Acoustics Facility, highlighted the importance of using a supercomputer to develop sports technologies. As human muscle tissues and physical conditions constantly change, the computation process is complex and requires the use of a supercomputer, he said.香港科技大学气动与声学实验室主任张欣(音译)强调了利用超级计算机研发体育科技的重要性。他表示,人体肌肉组织和身体状态不断变化,计算过程复杂,必须借助超级计算机完成。Athletes of the Hong Kong cycling team have worn aero-speed suits developed and tested in the wind tunnel to compete at various major sports events, including the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province. These bodysuits, tailor-made for each athlete, are estimated to reduce wind drag by an impressive 3 percent.香港自行车队运动员已身着经风洞研发测试的气动速干服,参与了包括2020年东京奥运会、2022年杭州亚运会在内的多项重大体育赛事。这些为每位运动员量身定制的服装,预计可显著降低3%的风阻。Other sports disciplines, such as windsurfing and triathlon, have also employed simulations developed using the supercomputer and the wind tunnel to optimize the postures and movements of athletes.帆板、铁人三项等其他体育项目也运用了超级计算机和风洞研发的模拟技术,优化运动员的动作姿态。During training sessions in Stanley on Hong Kong Island, sensors developed by the university recorded athletes' physical data, which was subsequently analyzed using the supercomputer.在香港岛赤柱的训练期间,该校研发的传感器记录下运动员的身体数据,随后通过超级计算机进行分析。According to Zhang, the Tianhe 2 simulated the wind conditions at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and provided the information to head coaches of the windsurfing and sailing teams. The supercomputer helped to enhance athletes' posture optimization, as well as design and select equipment, he said.张欣透露,“天河二号”曾模拟2024年巴黎奥运会的风力条件,并将相关数据提供给帆板队和帆船队主教练。超级计算机为运动员的姿态优化、装备设计与选型提供了有力支持。Sports technology cooperation between the mainland and Hong Kong has deepened in recent years, with more agreements signed for further development, serving both professional athletes and the public.近年来,内地与香港的体育科技合作不断深化,签署了更多合作协议推动后续发展,惠及专业运动员与普通民众。In September, Hong Kong Polytechnic University and mainland sportswear brand Li-Ning signed a memorandum of understanding to establish the Li-Ning-PolyU Joint Research Centre for Sports Science, which aims to enhance technological application and promote industrial transformation in the sports and health sectors.9月,香港理工大学与内地运动服装品牌李宁签署合作备忘录,成立“李宁-理大体育科学联合研究中心”,旨在加强体育健康领域的技术应用与产业转型。In Guangzhou, the Nansha Sub-Center of National Supercomputer Center provides the mainland's first supercomputer direct network line for Hong Kong. A dedicated high-speed fiber-optic network from the Tianhe 2 supercomputer is used to link Guangdong and Hong Kong's scientific innovation capabilities, enabling Hong Kong users to swiftly utilize the nation's supercomputing resources. The center has continuously provided support for technological innovation in Hong Kong and Macao.在广州,国家超级计算中心南沙分中心为香港开通了内地首条超级计算机直连网络专线。依托“天河二号”的专用高速光纤网络,链接粤港两地科创力量,让香港用户可快速调用国家超级计算资源。该中心持续为港澳地区的技术创新提供支持。For athletes from Macao and Hong Kong, traveling to the mainland for training and using sports technologies to improve their skills have become common.对于港澳运动员而言,赴内地训练并运用体育科技提升竞技水平已成为常态。Macao athlete Chan Man-hin, who participated in the National Games sailing event last month, said he was equipped with a high-end GPS tracker when he trained on the mainland. The device collected his performance data, including instantaneous speed and direction during sailing, for further analysis to help improve performance, he said.澳门运动员陈敏轩(音译)上月参与了全运会帆船项目,他表示在内地训练时配备了高端GPS追踪器。该设备收集了他航行中的瞬时速度、航向等表现数据,通过进一步分析助力成绩提升。"The piece of equipment allowed me to analyze all the training data and adjust my strategy for the day of the competition," Chan said.“这款设备让我能分析所有训练数据,调整比赛当天的策略,”陈敏轩说。The nation's support for sports development in its special administrative regions extends beyond hardware to include talent cultivation.国家对特区体育发展的支持不仅限于硬件层面,还涵盖人才培养。At Guangzhou Zhongshan Whampoa School for Hong Kong and Macao Students, a base has been established to provide a professional training platform for students from Hong Kong. Selected student athletes receive targeted training in five disciplines — fencing, swimming, equestrian, shooting and running.广州中山黄埔港澳子弟学校设立了专项基地,为香港学生提供专业训练平台。入选的学生运动员将接受击剑、游泳、马术、射击、跑步五个项目的针对性训练。These athletes also get more opportunities to participate directly in competitions at provincial, national and even international levels. By undergoing scientific and systematic training, they can gain recognition of the Sports Federation and Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China, and have the chance to register as Hong Kong athletes, potentially becoming the city's elite sports representatives.这些运动员还能获得更多直接参与省、国家乃至国际级赛事的机会。通过科学系统的训练,他们有望获得中国香港体育协会暨奥林匹克委员会的认可,注册成为香港运动员,进而成为特区的精英体育代表。aerodynamic/ˌeərəʊdaɪˈnæmɪk/adj.空气动力学的;流线型的optimize/ˈɒptɪmaɪz/v.优化;使最优化

With southern China's culture and cross-regional integration presented in a visual spectacle, a gala ceremony left the entire Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area stoked on Sunday as President Xi Jinping declared the 15th National Games open in Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong province.上周日,习近平主席在广东省省会广州宣布第十五届全国运动会开幕。这场盛典以视觉盛宴的形式展现了中国南方文化与区域协同发展成果,让整个粤港澳大湾区为之沸腾。Launched in 1959 to promote mass sports participation, China's National Games have opened a new chapter with the groundbreaking 2025 edition, being jointly held for the first time in Guangdong province and the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions. The 15th National Games kicked off with great fanfare, celebrating their influence in pulling the Greater Bay Area further together, not just in sports exchanges but also in terms of cultural and economic cohesion.全国运动会始于1959年,旨在推动群众体育参与。2025年第十五届全运会开创性地由广东省与香港、澳门特别行政区首次联合承办,为这一赛事翻开了崭新篇章。本届全运会的盛大开幕,不仅彰显了其在促进大湾区体育交流中的作用,更在文化融合与经济联结层面推动大湾区进一步凝聚,意义深远。After overseeing the parade of athletes and a series of ceremonial rituals, Xi announced the opening of the domestic sporting gala — held once every four years with a competition program similar to that of the Olympics — to rousing cheers from the crowd of over 80,000 at Guangdong Olympic Sports Center Stadium.在检阅运动员方阵、见证一系列仪式环节后,习近平主席宣布这一国内体育盛会正式开幕。全运会每四年举办一届,竞赛项目设置与奥运会相近,现场8万余名观众在广东奥林匹克体育中心体育场内爆发出热烈欢呼。Before attending the ceremony, Xi met on Sunday afternoon in Guangzhou with individuals and representatives of various sports groups, who were honored as role models of mass fitness and competitive sports promotion.开幕仪式前,习近平主席于周日下午在广州会见了获评群众健身与竞技体育推广模范的个人及各类体育团体代表。Kirsty Coventry, the new president of the International Olympic Committee and Thomas Bach, the IOC's honorary president for life, were among guests at the opening ceremony.国际奥委会新任主席柯丝蒂・考文垂与国际奥委会终身名誉主席托马斯・巴赫出席了开幕式。As the largest edition of the games, in numbers of participants and host cities, the Greater Bay Area games feature 419 medal events across 34 sports, involving over 14,000 professional athletes on its competitive program. A parallel mass sports program has also engaged more than 1 million amateurs in preliminary rounds of 166 events since February.本届全运会是参赛人数最多、主办城市最广的一届:竞赛项目涵盖34个大项、419个奖牌项目,有1.4万余名专业运动员参赛;同步开展的群众体育项目自今年2月起已举办166个项目的预选赛,吸引超100万名业余爱好者参与。As an early highlight of the night, a joint delegation of athletes representing Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao marched together at the end of the athletes' parade, drawing warm applause from the crowd.当晚的一大亮点出现在运动员入场仪式尾声——粤港澳联合代表团共同入场,赢得现场观众热烈掌声。As part of an extensive display of the history and culture of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, the opening ceremony presented traditional activities and art, ranging from dragon boat racing and lion dances to drum and gong performances in an intriguingly immersive fashion, enhanced by modern technology and dazzling audiovisual effects.开幕式以极具沉浸感的方式,结合现代科技与绚丽视听效果,集中展示了粤港澳三地的历史文化,呈现了龙舟竞渡、舞狮、锣鼓表演等传统活动与艺术形式。The lion dancers brought the crowd to its feet, taking advantage of virtual reality technology that made the performance even more spectacular, before the racing dragon boats drew "oohs" and "aahs" from spectators who, aided by augmented reality technology, felt as if the boats were being paddled into the crowd.舞狮表演借助虚拟现实技术,场面愈发壮观,引得观众起立喝彩;随后的龙舟竞渡环节,在增强现实技术的助力下,观众仿佛看到龙舟向自己驶来,纷纷发出惊叹。During the jubilant performances, iconic landmarks, such as Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour, the Ruins of St. Paul's in Macao and the Canton Tower in Guangzhou, took shape as 3D background projections, showcasing unique attractions of the Greater Bay Area's past and present.在热烈的表演过程中,香港维多利亚港、澳门大三巴牌坊、广州塔等标志性建筑以3D背景投影形式呈现,展现了粤港澳大湾区古今交融的独特魅力。Huang Kunming, a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and Party chief of Guangdong province, delivered a speech in which he extended his warm welcome to all participants.中共中央政治局委员、广东省委书记黄坤明致辞,向全体参与者表示热烈欢迎。"The National Games being held together by Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao will write a new chapter of the integrated development of the Greater Bay Area. We will play a generous host to present a streamlined, safe and splendid sporting extravaganza," he said.他指出:“粤港澳三地共同承办全运会,将书写大湾区协同发展的新篇章。我们将当好东道主,呈现一届简约、安全、精彩的体育盛会。”Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu and Macao Chief Executive Sam Hou-fai both pledged to build on the games' momentum to further facilitate sports, cultural and economic collaborations across the Greater Bay Area.香港特别行政区行政长官李家超与澳门特别行政区行政长官贺一诚均表示,将借全运会东风,进一步推动粤港澳大湾区在体育、文化、经济领域的合作。"This 15th edition not only represents an innovation of the National Games, but also accelerates Hong Kong's integration into the overall development of the country," Lee said in his speech.李家超在致辞中表示:“第十五届全运会不仅是全运会的一次创新,更将加速香港融入国家发展大局。”Sam said the games "will help build a brighter future of the GBA as yet another example of the significance of the 'one country, two systems' policy".贺一诚则指出:“本届全运会将为大湾区建设更美好的未来注入动力,是‘一国两制'实践意义的又一生动例证。”As a symbolic milestone of the games, the men's road cycling race charted a 230-kilometer route linking Zhuhai, a co-host city in Guangdong, with Hong Kong and Macao on Saturday, marking the first ever cross-boundary sporting event held in the Greater Bay Area.作为本届全运会的标志性事件,男子公路自行车赛于周六开启了一条连接广东协办城市珠海与香港、澳门的230公里赛道,这是粤港澳大湾区首次举办跨境体育赛事。For the exciting finale, three renowned athletes — Hong Kong's Olympic champion fencer Cheung Ka-long, Guangdong's star sprinter Su Bingtian and Macao martial artist Li Yi — completed the final leg of the torch relay before together igniting a flame ring as the games' main cauldron.在激动人心的圣火点燃环节,三位知名运动员——香港奥运击剑冠军张家朗、广东短跑名将苏炳添、澳门武术运动员李毅完成最后一棒火炬传递,共同点燃环形主火炬台,宣告赛事正式启动。cohesion/kəʊˈhiːʒn/n.凝聚力;结合;团结groundbreaking/ˈɡraʊndbreɪkɪŋ/adj.开创性的;突破性的;革新的Immersive/ɪˈmɜːsɪv/adj.沉浸式的;有沉浸感的

Taller and heavier, but still as precise as she has ever been, China's diving sensation Quan Hong chan refuses to be written off at the elite level just yet as she overcomes severe physical challenges to shine at the 15th National Games.如今的全红婵身形更高、体重更重,但依旧精准如初。这位中国跳水巨星克服重重身体挑战,在第十五届全运会上闪耀赛场,证明自己仍未退出顶尖行列。The nation's quadrennial sporting extravaganza, which has kicked off some of its 419 medal events before Sunday's official opening ceremony, is being held across boundaries for the first time — in Guangdong province and the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions.这场四年一度的全国体育盛会,在周日正式开幕前已率先启动419个奖牌项目中的部分赛事。本届全运会首次跨区域举办,覆盖广东省以及香港、澳门特别行政区。After being sidelined from competitions for about half a year due to injuries, Quan, a three-time Olympic gold winner, has returned to the spotlight amid doubts about her current level of preparedness and her future in international competitions, particularly her chances of making it to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.作为三届奥运冠军得主,全红婵因伤缺席赛事近半年。回归公众视野之际,外界对她目前的备战状态、国际赛事前景尤其是2028年洛杉矶奥运会的参赛可能性充满疑虑。She is no longer the petite 14-year-old who, at the 2020 Tokyo Games, became one of the youngest Chinese divers to win an Olympic gold, or the more mature teenager who clinched gold twice at the 2024 Paris Games. Her larger body frame and six-month hiatus notwithstanding, Quan, now 18, has maintained the striking quality of her dives.她不再是2020年东京奥运会上那个年仅14岁、成为中国最年轻跳水奥运冠军之一的小姑娘,也不是2024年巴黎奥运会上两夺金牌的成熟少年。尽管如今18岁的她体型变化明显,且阔别赛场半年,但其跳水动作的超高水准依然保持不变。The teen master of the "splash-disappearing technique", which refers to her delicate body control to keep water splashes at the minimum during a dive, delivered once again on Sunday.这位擅长“水花消失术”的少年名将,凭借对身体的精妙控制将跳水时的水花降到最小,在周日的比赛中再度展现了这一绝技。In the women's synchronized 10-meter platform diving team event, Quan made a strong return, partnering with newcomer Wang Wei ying. The duo displayed remarkable synchronicity and composure, earning a top combined score over three rounds and securing the first gold medal in diving for Team Guangdong, successfully defending its National Games title.在女子双人10米台决赛中,全红婵与新秀王伟莹搭档强势回归。两人配合默契、沉着冷静,三轮比赛后总分位居榜首,为广东队斩获跳水项目首金,成功卫冕全运会该项目冠军。Quan's home crowd at the Guangdong Olympic Sports Center Swimming and Diving Hall welcomed her with the loudest cheers, while her legion of social media fans — around 3.75 million on Sina Weibo — celebrated her comeback online.在广东奥林匹克体育中心游泳跳水馆,主场观众为全红婵送上了最热烈的欢呼。她在新浪微博上的约375万粉丝也在网上为其回归喝彩。The hashtag "Quan Hong chan returns to win" garnered nearly 62 million views on Weibo as of Thursday, and she was among the top trending topics related to the National Games on social media.截至周四,“全红婵回归夺冠”的话题在微博上的阅读量接近6200万,她也跻身全运会相关社交媒体热搜榜前列。"I am awesome," Quan herself posted an encouragement on Weibo following Guangdong's team victory.“我超棒的!”广东队夺冠后,全红婵在微博上发文为自己鼓劲。Quan's impressive form despite her injuries signals that she is far from retirement.尽管饱受伤病困扰,全红婵依旧保持着出色状态,这表明她远未到退役之时。Referring to the prospect of diving against her star teammate in the individual event at the 2028 Olympics, Quan's partner Wang said, "I hope I can be her rival. Apparently, she's not recovered to her best form yet, but I hope she will continue working hard on her way back to the peak."谈及2028年奥运会个人项目中与这位明星队友同场竞技的可能性,搭档王伟莹表示:“我希望能成为她的对手。显然她还没恢复到最佳状态,但我期待她能继续努力,重返巅峰。”In 2021, Quan became a household name after winning the 10m platform gold at the Tokyo Olympics, which was deferred because of the COVID-19 pandemic. She redefined the benchmark of elite diving by effortlessly pulling off some of the world's most difficult dives.2021年,因新冠疫情延期举办的东京奥运会上,全红婵夺得10米台金牌,一举成名。她轻松完成多项世界最高难度动作,重新定义了精英跳水的标杆。The pull of gravity felt stronger as Quan grew at least 15 centimeters taller and 10 kilograms heavier by the time of the Paris Olympics. However, she beat the challenges with countless extra hours on her fitness program, which eventually paid rich dividends. Quan edged out national teammate Chen Yu xi to retain her individual title in Paris, and added a third career Olympic gold in the synchro event with Chen.到巴黎奥运会时,全红婵身高至少增长了15厘米,体重增加了10公斤,感受到的地心引力也随之增大。但她通过额外投入无数时间进行体能训练克服了这些挑战,最终收获丰硕成果。在巴黎,全红婵险胜国家队队友陈芋汐,成功卫冕个人项目冠军,并与陈芋汐搭档再夺双人项目金牌,职业生涯奥运金牌数增至三枚。Quan will miss another duel against Chen, who is representing Shanghai, in Monday's individual final, because she hasn't signed up for the event to keep the intensity of her return in check.由于为控制复出强度未报名参加单人项目,全红婵将错过周一与代表上海队出战的陈芋汐的再度对决,后者是该项目的夺冠热门。He Wei yi, head coach of the Guangdong diving team, said that Quan has overcome tougher-than-expected challenges to make it to the National Games. "She is competing while still nursing injuries to her (right) tibia and ankle joints, and her body has kinesiology tapes all over to protect her muscles from overstretching," he said. "It's extremely tough for her, as she endures severe pain every day. She has to apply ice packs to her leg between each round during both practice and competitions."广东跳水队主教练何威仪表示,全红婵为参加全运会克服了超出预期的困难。“她目前仍带着右胫骨和踝关节的伤病参赛,身上贴满了肌效贴以防止肌肉过度拉伸,”他说,“这对她来说极其艰难,每天都要忍受剧烈疼痛。无论是训练还是比赛,每轮间隙她都得给腿部冰敷。”The National Games was Quan's first competition since she last dived competitively at the World Aquatics Diving World Cup Super Final in May in Beijing.此次全运会是全红婵自今年5月北京世界泳联跳水世界杯超级总决赛后,首次重返赛场。Chen, 20, a close friend of Quan, has emerged as a favorite for the individual title at the 2028 Olympics, after she claimed a record-extending fourth world championship title in 10m platform in July in Singapore.20岁的陈芋汐是全红婵的挚友,今年7月在新加坡举行的世锦赛上,她斩获职业生涯第四枚10米台金牌,创造了该项目的纪录,现已成为2028年奥运会单人项目的夺冠大热门。Whether it is Quan making a comeback and reigning supreme again or a mature Chen finishing on top, the intriguing rivalry between the duo is expected to keep the diving world stoked in the run-up to the next Olympics.无论是全红婵强势回归、重登巅峰,还是陈芋汐愈发成熟、独占鳌头,两位选手之间的精彩较量,都有望在下次奥运会前持续点燃跳水界的热情。quadrennialadj.四年一度的/kwəˈdreniəl/synchronizedadj.同步的;双人同步的/ˈsɪŋkrənaɪzd/hiatusn.间隙;暂停;休赛期/haɪˈeɪtəs/

Edward Berger hat mit Im Westen nichts Neues und Konklave hohe Erwartungen geweckt. In Ballad of a Small Player, seinem neuesten Film, nimmt er sich dem Thema Spielsucht an – mitten im grellen Casino-Kosmos von Macao. Doch kann ein Film funktionieren, wenn die Hauptfigur schon am Abgrund beginnt und sich dann nicht wirklich weiterentwickelt? Und was passiert, wenn das Setting zwischen Traum und Realität schwankt, ohne sich klar zu entscheiden? Wir sprechen über Colin Farrells schweißnasses Spiel, verschwommene Nebenfiguren und eine Stadt, die größer scheint als der Film selbst.

Mettez deux tours Eiffel l'une sur l'autre et vous arrivez à peu près à la hauteur de ce nouveau pont suspendu entre deux montagnes. La Chine vient de battre son propre record du monde de ponts. Construit en suspension, ce géant d'acier vert fluorescent permet de joindre les deux rives du grand canyon de la province du Guizhou dans le sud du pays.

Le pont de la province de la province de Guizhou, construit en un temps record de trois ans, est bien en avance sur les prévisions. Une performance qui a son prix. On sait que les conditions de travail des ouvriers en Chine ne sont pas aussi saines et sécurisées que dans d'autres parties du monde.  Malgré les critiques, tous les experts reconnaissent l'excellence chinoise. En trente ans, le pays est devenu le champion planétaire de routes suspendues. De 3 000 ponts au début des années 80, la Chine en compte aujourd'hui près de 32 000, dont certains sont en cours de construction.   260 millions d'euros  Sur les dix plus hauts ponts du monde, huit se trouvent en Chine. Des records planétaires à haute valeur ajoutée. C'est l'avis de Mary-Françoise Renard, responsable de l'Idrec, l'Institut français de recherche sur l'économie de la Chine, qui y voit une forme de fierté et un message envoyé au monde entier :     « Je vois deux motifs de fierté. L'une nationale et l'autre mondiale. Pour moi, les Chinois sont fiers d'avoir dépassé au niveau technologique d'infrastructures (ponts, routes, rails...) les États-Unis. D'autre part, les habitants y voient aussi un avantage de vie considérable au quotidien. Dans leur immense pays, les habitants se déplacent beaucoup lors des fêtes et des vacances. Quand les familles habitent les villages reculés de montagne, comme c'est le cas pour ce pont du Huajiang dans la province du Guizhou, ces nouvelles autoroutes leur font gagner du temps et de la sécurité sur les trajets. » Trois kilomètres d'autoroute entre les deux rives, avec ce pont d'acier et de béton. Une construction rapide grâce aux nouvelles technologies : satellites, caméras, drones, nouvelles imageries informatiques... Ce nouveau pont chinois a des pylônes, et son armature est connectée à distance sur ordinateur.  Une maîtrise de la matière première et des technologies Ingénieure française, spécialiste des matériaux industriels, Sandrine Mansoutre a fondé la société Ecotoolbox. Suspendre une autoroute de quatre voies entre deux montagnes et une prouesse technique. Il faut pouvoir poser et faire tenir l'ouvrage, ce n'est pas facile. « L'avancée chinoise se situe dans la maîtrise de la construction ; de la matière première, telle que le béton ou l'acier, jusqu'aux outils technologiques comme les satellites, drones, logiciels d'ordinateurs. La Chine est capable d'extraire les minerais et terres rares et de construire vite. Et ceci, car elle a tout sur place : les ingénieurs et les milliers d'ouvriers. Pékin agrège tous les maillons de la chaîne de fabrication de ses ponts. Cependant, je pense que l'essentiel est de construire avec les derniers matériaux moins polluants et de faire plus avec moins, en total respect de la nature et des hommes », explique Sandrine Mansoutre.   Un pont simulé sur ordinateur grâce à la technique du « jumeau numérique »  Très coûteuse, mais très efficace, la technique du jumeau numérique est aujourd'hui reconnue dans le domaine du transport et des infrastructures. Les constructeurs indiquent à l'imagerie de leur logiciel informatique tous les aléas de la région de construction : météo, température, taux de sel, d'humidité, obstacles... Il en sort une image du futur pont, qui bouge à l'écran en temps réel, en fonction de tous ces critères. Cela évite d'avoir à détruire ou déplacer des ponts, car cela arrive souvent, bâtis au mauvais endroit ou abîmés, en raison d'imprévus. Une destination de vacances   La Chine optimise les transports en faisant des ponts une curiosité touristique. Ce pont suspendu en est la preuve. Des boutiques, des hôtels sont prévus dans la région. Mais déjà, à son sommet, un ascenseur panoramique et un café restaurant pour des collations avec vue plongeante sur le fleuve.  À lire aussiXi Jinping inaugure le plus long pont du monde entre Hong Kong et Macao

Cellulite e Celluloide - Il cinema su Radio Elettrica

Si parte col remake di Toxic Avenger, che da ciclostilato punk diventa patinatura hollywoodiana: Dinklage e Bacon non bastano a salvare una roba che prende in giro proprio ciò che ormai è diventata. Poi arriva 5 secondi di Virzì, film medio ma sempre meglio della media altrui: Mastandrea eremita che ritrova la vita grazie a un gruppo di occupanti rumorosi. Su Netflix La ballata di un piccolo giocatore parte come noirone da Macao e finisce per perdersi nei vicoli del caso, mentre il prequel Welcome to Derry riesce nell'impresa di peggiorare Pennywise. Si discute anche di quell'horror romantico dei due fidanzati-magneti che si incastrano come siamesi e diventano un uomo a due teste: splatterone ma con un'idea di fondo più furba del previsto. E infine Io sono Rosa Ricci, prequel di Mare Fuori: estetica Gomorra, regia solida, ma sceneggiatura che sbraga in “sceneggiata napoletana” tra rapimenti, amori col carceriere e battute da TikTok.

As a key gateway for fostering connectivity, Hong Kong is set to accelerate the integrated development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and the nation's high-quality growth.香港作为加强互联互通的核心门户,正计划加快粤港澳大湾区一体化建设,推动国家高质量发展。The city will achieve this by continuously channeling global capital, promoting innovation and building cultural bridges, senior officials, industry leaders and experts told the Greater Bay Area Conference 2025, which was held on Thursday in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.在香港特别行政区于周四举办的“2025粤港澳大湾区大会”上,政府高官、行业领袖及专家表示,香港将通过持续引入全球资本、推动创新发展、搭建文化交流桥梁等举措实现上述目标。Qu Yingpu, publisher and editor-in-chief of China Daily, lifted the curtain on the high-profile conference with a prerecorded welcome speech, which was followed by keynote speeches delivered by Leung Chun-ying, vice-chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu.中国日报社社长兼总编辑曲莹璞通过预录欢迎辞为这场备受关注的大会拉开帷幕。随后,全国政协副主席梁振英、香港特别行政区行政长官李家超分别发表主旨演讲。Leung emphasized the central government's vision for the Hong Kong and Macao special administrative regions to actively integrate into the nation's development.梁振英强调,中央政府始终支持香港、澳门两个特别行政区积极融入国家发展大局。He said that upholding the principle of "one country, two systems" and promoting integrated development across the Greater Bay Area would "unleash huge energy similar to nuclear fusion", driving development on both sides.他表示,坚持“一国两制”方针,推动粤港澳大湾区融合发展,将“释放出堪比核聚变的巨大能量”,为大湾区内外发展注入动力。Leung also highlighted the freer flow of people, goods, capital and data as key pathways and objectives of the region's integrated development. Noting the concrete progress in infrastructure and visa relaxation, he said the collaboration between the Hong Kong SAR and Guangdong province has become broader and deeper.梁振英还指出,人员、货物、资金、数据的更自由流动,是大湾区一体化发展的核心路径与目标。他提到,当前大湾区基础设施建设与签证便利化政策已取得切实进展,香港特区与广东省的合作领域正不断拓宽、合作深度持续加深。"Faster and easier cross-boundary journeys have brought about the flow of talent to cities where they are most needed, and where they are most productive," Leung added.“更快捷、更便捷的跨境出行,让人才能够流向最需要、也最能发挥其价值的城市,”梁振英补充道。The senior official expressed his firm belief in the huge untapped potential of Hong Kong's role as a "super-connector", not only within the Greater Bay Area but also in linking the region with the rest of the world.这位高官坚信,香港作为“超级联系人”的潜力尚未完全释放——这一角色不仅体现在大湾区内部,更在于将大湾区与全球其他地区紧密联结。"For all sectors, there are opportunities, and for all opportunities, there are windows. Opportunities come and go, and the windows open and shut," Leung said, calling for "better understanding" and more on-the-ground actions.“各行业皆有机遇,所有机遇皆有窗口期。机遇转瞬即逝,窗口期亦会开合,”梁振英说道,他呼吁各方“增进理解”并采取更多务实行动。The conference, themed "Financial Connectivity, Nurturing Talent, Building Cultural Bridges", was co-organized by China Daily and the Hong Kong Coalition. It brought together more than 300 guests, including executives from Fortune Global 500 and China 500 companies, representatives of think tanks, academia and media, and experts from public and private sectors across Asia.本次大会以“金融互联・人才培育・文化筑桥”为主题,由中国日报与香港友好协进会联合主办。来自亚洲各地的300余名嘉宾参会,包括《财富》世界500强与中国500强企业高管、智库代表、学术界人士、媒体从业者,以及公共部门与私营领域的专家。Qu, the publisher and editor-in-chief of China Daily, highlighted Hong Kong's advantage in "value adding" as the "super-connector", noting that the city's newly established GoGlobal Task Force "will make Hong Kong the primary channel for attracting international capital and technology".中国日报社社长兼总编辑曲莹璞强调,香港作为“超级联系人”,具备独特的“增值”优势。他指出,香港新建立的出海服务平台“将推动香港成为吸引国际资本与技术的主要渠道”。He said he believes the Greater Bay Area is set to "contribute to the national goal of scientific and technological self-reliance", while the upcoming 15th National Games, which will be co-hosted by Hong Kong, Macao and Guangdong, make it "a magnet for domestic and international talent, as well as tourists — a connector of cultures and civilizations".他认为,粤港澳大湾区必将“为国家实现科技自立自强的目标贡献力量”;而即将由香港、澳门与广东联合举办的第十五届全国运动会,将使大湾区“成为吸引国内外人才与游客的‘磁石',成为连接不同文化与文明的纽带”。"The Greater Bay Area has the glorious mission of becoming a principal support of the new development paradigm and a pioneer of Chinese modernization. By pursuing high-quality development and better integrating itself into China's overall development, the Greater Bay Area can well fulfill this mission and make an important contribution to national rejuvenation," Qu added.“粤港澳大湾区肩负着成为新发展格局重要支撑、中国式现代化先行典范的光荣使命。通过推动高质量发展、更好融入国家发展大局,大湾区完全能够履行这一使命,为民族复兴作出重要贡献,”曲莹璞补充道。In a video speech, Hong Kong Chief Executive Lee underscored the city's unique position as the only city having both Chinese and global advantages.香港特别行政区行政长官李家超在视频致辞中强调,香港是唯一兼具“中国优势”与“全球优势”的城市,地位独特。Leveraging its common law system, competitive taxation and a bilingual talent pool, Hong Kong serves as a "premier gateway for cooperation, bridging people, trades, businesses, cultures and values across the region".依托普通法制度、具有竞争力的税收政策及双语人才库,香港成为“区域合作的首要门户,为区内人员、贸易、企业、文化及价值观的互联互通搭建桥梁”。The GoGlobal Task Force will support Chinese mainland enterprises in their global expansion to "create important value for both our country and Hong Kong", Lee said, emphasizing the importance of accelerating the city's development as an international innovation and technology center.李家超表示,“出海”服务平台将支持中国内地企业拓展全球市场,“为国家与香港创造重要价值”。他同时强调,加快推动香港建设国际创新科技中心具有重要意义。With strengthened talent cultivation and cultural exchanges, particularly through the upcoming 15th National Games, Hong Kong will continue to link the Greater Bay Area to global markets, Lee added.李家超补充道,通过加强人才培养与文化交流(尤其是借助即将举办的第十五届全国运动会),香港将继续发挥纽带作用,推动粤港澳大湾区与全球市场对接。The conference featured two panel discussions on innovative finance and talent development, and a dialogue on the National Games' impact on local sports and culture.大会设置两场专题小组讨论,分别聚焦“创新金融与人才发展”;此外还举办了一场主题对话,探讨全运会对香港本地体育与文化发展的影响。Panelists highlighted Hong Kong's GoGlobal Task Force initiative, which supports mainland firms' overseas expansion and facilitates capital flows.参会嘉宾重点关注香港“出海”服务平台 的相关举措——该平台不仅支持内地企业海外拓展,还为资金流动提供便利。Their discussions also focused on enhancing university-industry collaboration to drive technological advancement and leveraging the games to boost regional integration through sports and cultural exchanges.嘉宾们在讨论中还提出,应加强校企合作以推动技术进步,并借助全运会契机,通过体育与文化交流促进区域融合。Furthermore, they discussed strategies to improve cross-regional coordination and advance the Greater Bay Area as a benchmark for China's high-quality development.此外,嘉宾们还就“如何完善跨区域协调机制”“推动粤港澳大湾区成为中国高质量发展标杆”等议题探讨了具体策略。untapped/ˌʌnˈtæpt/adj.未开发的;未利用的integrated/ˈɪntɪɡreɪtɪd/adj.一体化的;综合的facilitate/fəˈsɪlɪteɪt/v.促进;使便利

Expert: High Temps as Tropical Storm Heads to Japan Forecasters say Taiwan can expect high temperatures today as a tropical storm heads towards Japan. Meteorologist Wu De-rong says weather in Taiwan will be sunny both today and tomorrow, with highs in the north reaching 37 to 38 degrees Celsius. The Central Weather Administration has issued a head alert for Taipei and New Taipei in the north, as well as Chiayi County, Tainan City, and Taitung County. And afternoon showers and thunderstorms are expected in mountainous areas. Wu says those traveling to or from Japan should be on the lookout for (密切注意著) Tropical Storm Peipah, which is expected to hit Japan's Shikoku and southern Honshu islands today. From this weekend heading into next week, Wu says moisture from the south will increase, leading to a chance of thunderstorms and heavy rain in the afternoons. And also for travelers, he adds that a tropical disturbance in the South China Sea could affect Hong Kong and Macao on Monday next week.

Congo Suspected New Ebola Outbreak Kills Over a Dozen Congo's health minister says a new Ebola outbreak is suspected of causing 15 deaths among 28 people with symptoms. It's the 16th outbreak of Ebola in the central African country, and the minister says the fatality rate, estimated at nearly 54-percent, showed the gravity (嚴重性) of the situation. The suspected cases included four health care workers. They all had typical Ebola symptoms such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea and heavy bleeding. The World Health Organization said it dispatched its experts to Kasai province to strengthen disease surveillance, treatment and infection prevention and control in health facilities. It is also delivering supplies including personal protective equipment, mobile laboratory equipment and medical supplies.

Peru Commission to Vote on Reserve for Uncontacted Tribes A commission in Peru was scheduled to vote Thursday on whether to create a long-delayed reserve in a remote stretch of the Amazon that would protect five uncontacted tribes from outside encroachment.

The reserve would safeguard uncontacted tribes vulnerable to disease and exploitation, but faces opposition from logging interests and political resistance. The vote follows decades of delays and comes as Congress debates changes to the Indigenous Peoples in Isolation law that could weaken protections by allowing periodic (定期的) re-evaluation and possible reduction of reserves.

It was the first publicly known arrest under the city's national security law. Local media outlets report former pro-democracy lawmaker Au Kam San is the suspect. Police said Thursday the 68-year-old Macao resident with the surname Au allegedly colluded (串通;勾結;) with an anti-China group outside of the city and provided false and seditious materials for public display online or abroad. He also is accused of maintaining long-term contact with multiple anti-China entities outside of Macao and repeatedly providing unfounded information to them or their media outlets for dissemination. Peru PreIncan Tombs Discovered Utility workers in Peru's capital have discovered two pre-Incan tombs while expanding underground gas networks. One tomb was empty, but the other contained remains about 1,000 years old, along with clay and pumpkin shell vessels (容器, 器皿). Archaeologists say the vessels' (容器, 器皿) design links them to the pre-Incan Chancay culture. Lima, a city with over 400 archaeological sites, often reveals such finds during construction projects. The company responsible for the gas network has made over 2,200 discoveries in two decades. That was the I.C.R.T.

In 1610, Spanish pilot Juan Bernardo de Fuentidueñas survived a wreck near Macao — but what he discovered next would shake centuries of historical assumptions.On a remote reef, he encountered three indigenous survivors. His chronicle described them not as Japanese, Ryukyuan, or Chinese... but as Lequian Indians.For over 400 years, historians have believed Lequios = Ryukyu. But what if we've been wrong?Drawing from firsthand accounts preserved in The Philippine Islands, 1493–1898 (Blair & Robertson, Vol. XVI), this documentary uncovers stunning new evidence that Lequios was not in Japan — but right here in Northern Luzon, Philippines.

Macau–onetime Portuguese colony, now casino hotspot–has long captured the imaginations of travelers, reporters, artists and writers. The city served as the only gateway to China for centuries; then, after the rise of Hong Kong, its slightly seedier vibe made it a popular setting for books, articles and movies exploring the more criminal elements of society. Paul French joins us, once again, to talk about his new book Destination Macao (Blacksmith Books: 2024) the latest book in his Destination series. We chat about colonies and casinos, but also some of the lesser-known parts of Macau's history, like an aborted British attempt to invade Macau in 1808; furious media rumors in 1935 about Japan's interest in buying the colony, and the city's brief time as an aviation hub for the Pan Am Clipper. Paul French was born in London and lived and worked in Shanghai for many years. His book Midnight in Peking was a New York Times Bestseller and a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week. He received the Mystery Writers' of America Edgar award for Best Fact Crime and a Crime Writers' Association (UK) Dagger award for non-fiction.

While famous UK pirates like Blackbeard, Black Bart, Calico Jack, Sir Francis Drake, or Captain Kidd get much more name recognition, none of them ever commanded a confederation of pirates up to 80,000 men strong, with around 2,000 ships.
