China to ‘ensure cost outweighs gains’ if Manila launches new South China Sea case: expert
中国南海问题专家吴士存表示，如果菲律宾就南海争议对中国提起第二次仲裁，中国可能会采取“更多样化的”手段进行反制。菲律宾正在考虑再次对中国提起法律诉讼，指控中国在马尼拉专属经济区内非法采挖巨型蛤蜊，对珊瑚礁造成了严重的生态破坏。
吴士存认为，菲律宾寻求再次提起法律挑战，表明其从第一次仲裁中获益，并认为这种尝试是值得的。为了应对这种情况，中国必须确保菲律宾的损失大于收益，使其行动成为徒劳。他建议，有效的反制措施可能包括北京要求马尼拉为移除在仁爱礁非法“坐滩”的“马德雷山”号设定最后期限，如果马尼拉未能遵守，北京可能会承担拖走该船的责任。

Chinese EV maker Geely joins BYD in Brazil push via deal with Renault
中国亿万富翁李书福正通过与雷诺的合作，将吉利汽车扩展到拉丁美洲，这突显了中国在全球友好市场扩大销售的努力，因为关税阻碍了其在美国和欧洲的增长。李书福通过其私人投资控股公司浙江吉利控股集团，与这家法国汽车制造商签署了一项框架协议，将在巴西生产汽车。
浙江吉利和雷诺同意“扩大其在零排放和低排放汽车开发和生产方面的战略合作”。根据协议，浙江吉利将投资并成为雷诺的少数股东，从而获得“本地化生产、服务网络和渠道资源”。由于惩罚性关税，中国汽车制造商正逐渐远离美国和欧洲。美国去年将中国电动汽车的关税从25%提高到100%，欧盟于10月份对中国生产的电动汽车实施了高达45%的新进口关税。

New Zealand’s new tourism slogan invites toilet comparisons
New Zealand's latest tourism campaign, "Everyone must go!", is facing criticism for its potentially insensitive slogan, despite its aim to attract Australian tourists and boost the struggling economy. The NZ$500,000 campaign targets Australians, who make up a significant portion of the country's international visitors, in an effort to revitalize tourism numbers that haven't fully recovered since the pandemic.
The campaign's timing, coinciding with government job cuts and a wave of New Zealanders emigrating due to economic challenges, has led to accusations that the slogan is tone-deaf. While Tourism Minister Louise Upston emphasizes the campaign's message of welcoming Australians with great deals, many locals find the phrase inappropriate and even humorous, given the current economic climate and outward migration.

Philippines doubles down on US-made Typhon missile system despite China’s warnings
The Philippines is proceeding with plans to integrate the US-made Typhon missile system into its defense strategy, despite China's calls for its removal. The system will be featured in the upcoming Combined Arms Training Exercise (Catex) in March, signaling a strengthening commitment to the platform. This move underscores the Philippines' resolve to protect its sovereignty amid ongoing tensions in the region.
The Catex drills, involving approximately 6,000 troops, are designed to test the military's response to external threats and enforce the Philippines’ Comprehensive Archipelagic Defence Concept. While live-fire exercises are planned, the Typhon system itself won't be used in live-fire scenarios during the exercise as the army focuses on understanding its operation and integration into defense strategies. The exercise will span Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, allowing for large-scale mobilizations without disrupting local communities.

Sri Lanka scraps pandemic-era ban on vehicle imports to reap tax rewards
Sri Lanka is relying on taxes from vehicle imports to boost revenue and revitalize its struggling economy. President Anura Kumara Dissanayake's maiden budget aims to meet the IMF's tax target of 15% of GDP by lifting the 2020 ban on vehicle imports, which previously generated substantial revenue through taxes of approximately 300%. The president assured that the impact of vehicle imports on external sector stability would be carefully monitored.
The 2020 ban on vehicle imports was initially implemented to conserve foreign exchange, but it resulted in the loss of a significant revenue stream for the government. In addition to lifting the import ban, the budget includes measures to increase revenue from the gaming industry, such as doubling the entrance fee for casinos to US$100 and raising the turnover tax on gaming establishments from 15% to 18%.

Hong Kong government slams wanted activist for criticising HK$800,000 confiscation
香港政府强烈谴责流亡的前立法会议员许智峰，指责其在网上对法院没收其及其家人80万港元资产的命令进行“毫无根据的诽谤和恶意攻击”。此前，许智峰在社交媒体上称这一行为“荒谬”且“侵犯人权”。
香港律政司此前申请没收令，称许智峰将近250万港元转移至其母亲和妻子名下。政府发言人表示，没收令是为了防止罪犯从其犯罪行为中获益的常见做法，并强调法院必须确定危害国家安全罪行的收益价值，且没收令的申请和发布均严格遵守规定，并非如许智峰所言可以“随时”或“任意”没收私人财产。发言人还指出，许智峰在潜逃前后，将其近250万港元的个人资产作为礼物转移给其母亲和妻子，而法院对律政司提交的相关交易证据感到“满意”。

India’s Kashmir winter games a no-go amid snowless ski slopes
India has suspended its winter games in Gulmarg, a high-altitude Himalayan resort, due to insufficient snowfall, highlighting the impact of rising global temperatures. The Khelo Winter Games, featuring alpine skiing, Nordic skiing, ski mountaineering, and snowboarding, were scheduled for February 22-25 and expected to draw hundreds of athletes.
The decision to postpone the games underscores the erratic weather patterns attributed to climate change, which are impacting snow levels in the region. While annual snowfall naturally varies, scientists emphasize that climate change is a significant driver of these unpredictable conditions. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had previously expressed enthusiasm for the games, anticipating they would foster emerging talent.

‘No better than Korea’: Thailand eyes US$1.5 million minimum for local casino gamblers
Thailand is proposing strict entry requirements for local gamblers in its planned casinos, potentially impacting investor interest in the country's burgeoning gaming industry. The draft regulation mandates that Thai nationals possess at least 50 million baht (US$1.5 million) in fixed deposits for a minimum of six months to gain casino access. Additionally, an entry fee capped at 5,000 baht (US$150) is proposed.
These requirements are designed to regulate access and mitigate potential social issues associated with gambling. However, the high financial threshold could exclude a significant portion of the Thai population, where per capita gross domestic product is around US$7,300. Analysts suggest that limiting domestic participation could diminish the attractiveness of the Thai casino market to foreign investors, who were counting on local players to contribute significantly to revenue. Previous estimates indicated Thailand had the potential to become a major global gambling destination, but these new restrictions may alter that outlook.

How Chinese engineers used bamboo in the world’s longest sea bridge, and more
中国科学家正在研发更坚固耐用的竹基材料新技术，用于大型基础设施建设，以巩固中国在这一新兴环保产业中的领导地位。竹子以其生长迅速和强度高而闻名，经过改造的复合板被用于港珠澳大桥沿线的观景平台。
据报道，这些竹基面板在大桥安装六年之后，经受住了阳光、台风和海水腐蚀，仍然“坚如磐石”。南京林业大学竹类研究所的娄志超表示，中国不仅是世界上最大的竹子生产国，而且在加工能力方面也具有相对优势。他强调，保持中国在竹技术创新方面的领先地位至关重要，并提出行业应专注于推进自动化和智能制造，同时积极塑造国际标准。

Task force to look into cutting construction costs for Hong Kong public flats
香港房屋委员会将成立一个工作组，旨在削减公共租赁住房的建设成本，原因是每个住宅的支出增加了5.4%，达到近100万港元（128,205美元），而香港正面临巨额赤字。工作组将审查设计、材料和程序等方面，以寻找降低成本的空间。
房屋局将成立一个由主管级官员领导的工作组，以评估各项工程的建设成本是否存在压缩空间，此举受到了业内专业人士的欢迎。发展局此前表示，正在进行一项研究，以制定降低成本的措施。政府消息人士称，他们将审查如何通过直接采购和流程调整来节省人力和成本。房屋局局长何永贤表示，第二代“组装合成建筑法”（MiC）现在比政府最初采用该技术时更便宜。MiC方法采用来自中国大陆工厂的独立集成模块，这些模块在现场安装前会经过质量检验。

North Korea’s Kim reclaims ancestors’ legacy with rare mausoleum visit
Kim Jong-un made a rare visit to the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun, the mausoleum of his father Kim Jong-il and grandfather Kim Il-sung, marking the first time in four years he has paid tribute on his father’s birthday. The visit, accompanied by top military officials and his sister Kim Yo-jong, took place on the Day of the Shining Star, North Korea's national holiday celebrating Kim Jong-il’s birthday.
Analysts suggest this gesture may be an attempt by Kim Jong-un to reinforce his regime’s legitimacy amid growing international pressure for North Korea to denuclearize. During the visit, Kim expressed his commitment to the revolutionary ideals of his predecessors and vowed to dedicate himself to the nation's prosperity and the well-being of its people, according to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).

European leaders warn against Ukraine ceasefire without peace deal, official says
European leaders have signaled their readiness to provide Ukraine with security guarantees, emphasizing that a ceasefire without a preceding peace agreement could be dangerous. This commitment emerged from a meeting in Paris, convened to address the ongoing conflict and explore avenues for resolution.
The Paris meeting, hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron, was prompted by concerns over US President Donald Trump's plans for bilateral peace talks with Russia, which would exclude key European allies and Ukraine. European leaders present included representatives from the UK, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the Netherlands, Denmark, NATO, the European Commission, and the European Council. The EU official stated they agreed with President Trump on a "peace through strength" approach, but seek to ensure European involvement in the peace process and offer support to Ukraine.
