It’s morning in Russia: why Trump’s embrace of Putin means long-term unease in China
Donald Trump's recent actions, including voting with Russia against Ukraine at the UN, are being seen as a major win for Vladimir Putin and a significant shift in US foreign policy. This move, following attempts to initiate direct peace talks between Russia and Ukraine in Saudi Arabia, marks a growing divergence between the US and its European allies regarding the ongoing conflict.
Trump's history of controversial interactions with Putin, including the 2018 Helsinki summit and his 2021 comments after meeting with Biden, have long fueled concerns about his stance on Russia. The recent UN vote, coinciding with the third anniversary of the Ukraine war, underscores a potential realignment of global alliances, a long-sought goal for Moscow, further straining transatlantic relations.

Australia hospital under fire after 3 child deaths within 6 weeks leads to legal action
澳大利亚一家医院因六周内至少三名儿童死亡而受到强烈批评，原因是该医院涉嫌管理不善和人手短缺。这些死亡事件发生在2024年9月至10月期间，引发了对医院运营的新一轮审查，死者家属已采取法律行动。
据澳大利亚广播公司报道，其中一个案例涉及Nadine Lont，她声称自己在分娩时胎盘破裂，经历了两个半小时的剧痛，但只得到了硬膜外麻醉，而没有得到她本应接受的紧急剖腹产。最终她自然分娩，但她的女儿Lacey因缺氧时间过长而出生时脑死亡。Latrobe Regional Hospital (LRH) 位于墨尔本以东 150 公里处，是维多利亚州东南部吉普斯兰地区 29 万人口的主要医疗服务提供商。

Expanding Hong Kong’s safety seat law to public transport ‘may pose obstacles’
香港运输部门表示，将要求8岁以下儿童在私家车内乘坐时使用安全座椅或类似设备的新法律扩展到公共交通工具上存在困难。他们认为，公共交通工具运营商需要为不同年龄段的儿童准备不同类型的约束设备，这可能会对其日常运营造成障碍。
然而，立法会议员建议政府可以考虑将此安全措施作为出租车牌照的条件之一。同时，一些家长也表达了担忧，认为他们的孩子可能无法乘坐Uber等网约车平台的私家车。运输署总工程师表示，新法律主要针对私家车，因为数据显示，过去涉及8岁以下儿童的交通事故中，约一半的受伤者是在私家车内。

Philippine army stays silent amid calls for Marcos Jnr’s ouster, as Edsa anniversary passes
As the Philippines commemorates the 39th anniversary of the Edsa People Power Revolution that ousted Ferdinand Marcos Snr, calls for the removal of his son, current President Ferdinand Marcos Jnr, have intensified. Former President Rodrigo Duterte has accused Marcos Jnr of "veering towards dictatorship" and intending to stay in power beyond his term, even suggesting he might declare martial law like his father.
Duterte, once an ally of Marcos Jnr, has become a vocal critic, repeatedly calling for his ouster and even accusing him of drug use. Despite these calls and the historical role of the military in the 1986 revolution, military insiders indicate they are focused on national security and unlikely to intervene in the current political turmoil. This year's Edsa commemoration notably lacked high-ranking officials from the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the Department of National Defence, highlighting the military's current stance.

China’s Shenzhen lays down marker for tech investment with US$22 billion pledge
Shenzhen plans to invest 160 billion yuan (US$22.07 billion) in "new-type infrastructure" this year to boost emerging sectors like artificial intelligence and maintain its competitive edge. Shenzhen Mayor Qin Weizhong urged the city to embrace challenges with the spirit of a "seabird braving the storm," emphasizing action and responsibility to drive high-quality development.
This initiative comes as Shenzhen faces increasing competition from other Chinese cities, particularly Hangzhou, which has seen success in AI and robotics. The city has set ambitious goals for 2025, including a 5.5% GDP growth target, a 2% increase in the consumer price index, a 3% rise in public budget revenue, and the creation of 200,000 new jobs, reflecting its commitment to being a major economic powerhouse.

Investors to redevelop Hong Kong’s Kitec site into office, flats and hotel blocks
Kowloon Bay International Trade & Exhibition Centre (Kitec) owner, International Trademart, has proposed a new mixed-use project featuring residential and commercial elements, signaling a shift in redevelopment strategy due to Hong Kong's challenging property market. The plan, submitted to the Town Planning Board on February 19, includes one office tower, four residential towers with 1,494 flats, and 720 hotel rooms.
This proposal supersedes a previously approved plan from March 2023 for three commercial buildings. The change reflects the downturn in Hong Kong's commercial property market, which led to Kitec's closure in June 2023. International Trademart, backed by investors like Billion Development & Project Management and CSI Properties, acquired the property from Hopewell Holdings in 2021 for HK$10 billion. Kitec was known for its Star Hall venue and the E-Max shopping and entertainment hall.

As Yoon Suk-yeol’s impeachment trial ends in South Korea, will embattled president prevail?
South Korea's Constitutional Court held its final hearing regarding President Yoon Suk-yeol's potential impeachment, with analysts forecasting a unanimous decision to remove him from office. The ruling is anticipated in mid-March, mirroring the timeline of former President Park Geun-hye's impeachment. Yoon's defense argued his martial law decree was to alert the public to a "parliamentary dictatorship" and counter alleged interference, while plaintiffs asserted he undermined the constitutional order.
Professor Lim Ji-bong suggests Yoon is unlikely to prevail, citing "ample evidence" that his actions violated the constitution regarding extraordinary measures. The impeachment trial stems from Yoon's brief martial law decree on December 3, which the opposition-dominated National Assembly argues was an illegal attempt to pave the way for dictatorship, drawing comparisons to past authoritarian rulers.

重建乌克兰经济的预估成本已升至5240亿美元，约为该国2024年预期经济产出的三倍。这项由世界银行、联合国、欧盟委员会和乌克兰政府联合进行的研究显示，俄罗斯的入侵对乌克兰的能源基础设施造成了严重破坏，损失同比增加了70%。
该研究涵盖了俄罗斯入侵三年以来至12月31日的数据，与一年前的4860亿美元的预估相比，增加了7%以上。其中，住房、交通、能源、商业和教育是受影响最严重的部门。乌克兰政府已拨款73.7亿美元用于解决2025年的优先需求，但在捐助者的支持下，仍存在近100亿美元的融资缺口。

China’s PLA offers details on live-fire Pacific drills led by Type 055 destroyer Zunyi
The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) has released details about recent live-fire drills in the Pacific Ocean, focusing on aerial and maritime threats. These drills emphasized coordination, resupply operations, and joint operational capabilities, according to the PLA Navy.
This announcement follows closely after PLA Navy drills in the Tasman Sea, which put Australia and New Zealand on alert and led to flight diversions and naval monitoring. The naval task group, led by the destroyer Zunyi and including the frigate Hengyang and replenishment vessel Weishanhu, reportedly conducted exercises over several days in challenging sea conditions, training in command execution, weapons operation, and coordinated maneuvers. While the exact location and timing weren't specified, vessel names match those involved in the previous drills that sparked diplomatic tensions.

Indonesian punk band’s apology for anti-police song sparks outcry over perceived censorship

How China’s challenge to Trump’s Gaza plan could boost Beijing’s Mideast influence
中国正在努力在中东地区保持平衡，既要与阿拉伯国家保持一致，又要改善与以色列的关系。这一策略旨在挑战美国提出的加沙地带巴勒斯坦人重新安置计划，并可能使中国成为一个更具影响力的地区参与者。中国明确反对美国总统特朗普提出的战后加沙计划，该计划包括迁移当地的巴勒斯坦居民。
中国外交部长王毅上周在联合国安理会表示，加沙不是政治“筹码”，并重申中国致力于“两国方案”。中国支持基于联合国1967年通过的决议的两国方案，即西岸和加沙应由巴勒斯坦人管辖。作为对巴勒斯坦人支持的一部分，北京计划向加沙运送6万个食品包，首批1.2万个已发货。与此同时，华盛顿宣布完全停止其对外援助，但这一举措被美国法院暂时阻止。
