At this year’s ‘two sessions’ in Beijing, AI seems to be on everyone’s lips
China's technological advancements, especially in artificial intelligence, have taken center stage at the "Two Sessions" political event in Beijing. Senior officials, lawmakers, and advisors are actively discussing the opportunities and challenges presented by these technologies, highlighting China's ambition to become a tech leader.
These discussions occur against the backdrop of increasing hi-tech competition between China and the United States, including US sanctions on China's tech sector. Despite "unjustified external suppression," as stated by Foreign Minister Wang Yi, China claims to have made rapid progress and is willing to share its innovations with other countries. Tech, particularly AI, has been a dominant topic at the National People’s Congress (NPC) and the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC).

China wants to change the world with disruptive technologies. But what are they?
China is rapidly advancing in disruptive technologies, blurring the lines between science fiction and reality with innovations like humanoid robots, brain-computer interfaces, quantum computers, and hypersonic aircraft. This push for technological dominance is a key focus for Beijing as it aims to lead in emerging markets, outpacing Western powers like the United States.
President Xi Jinping has emphasized the importance of "original and disruptive" scientific innovation to achieve sci-tech self-reliance. A recent report from the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) highlighted China's progress in areas like artificial intelligence and 5G technology. The NDRC's draft plan for 2025 further emphasizes innovation, including cultivating "future industries" such as quantum technology and future energy sources.

Can Hong Kong emulate the success of Hangzhou’s tech titans?
Hong Kong faces financial challenges, but a key opportunity lies in fostering tech start-ups to drive new economic growth. The emergence of successful tech hubs like Hangzhou, with its "Six Little Dragons" including AI leaders DeepSeek and Unitree Robotics, raises the question of why Hong Kong hasn't seen similar success. It's crucial for Hong Kong to learn from these examples and cultivate a vibrant tech entrepreneurship ecosystem.
To become a global tech leader, Hong Kong needs to transform into a talent hub and innovation center. While the Northern Metropolis project aims to drive tech progress, its slow pace raises concerns. Adopting the mainland's zone-development model, assigning land parcels to developers, and leveraging the private market can boost efficiency and reduce costs, helping Hong Kong catch up and compete in the global tech arena.

As stablecoins grow, Hong Kong’s US dollar peg seen as advantage despite Web3 challenges
Hong Kong's currency peg to the US dollar could give it an advantage in the growing stablecoin market, acting as a bridge between Web3 and traditional finance. The majority of stablecoin trading activity involves cryptocurrencies backed by the US dollar, making Hong Kong's USD peg attractive for companies dealing with USD-pegged assets like Tether (USDT) and USD Coin (USDC).
Hong Kong's established position as a global financial hub, coupled with its deep foreign exchange market and regulatory environment that facilitates currency conversion, further strengthens its appeal for USD conversions. The preference for USD-backed stablecoins reinforces the dollar's dominance in global finance, as maintaining a one-to-one peg necessitates substantial USD reserves, a requirement increasingly enforced by regulations, including Hong Kong's pending stablecoin legislation.

Chinese passenger pricked by stray needle on flight gets depression, seeks compensation
一名中国男子在航班上被遗留的针头扎伤，他要求赔偿13万元人民币（约合1.8万美元），理由是担心感染而导致抑郁。该男子姓傅，在中国南方航空公司的航班上，当他从座位口袋里取出手机时，被一个注射器针头扎到。
傅先生回忆说，他感到手指一阵刺痛，发现一根针头粘在上面，他怀疑是胰岛素注射器的针头。事后证实，这根针头是之前航班的乘客遗留下来的。航空公司最初提出赔偿机票费用1800元人民币，外加1000元人民币的补偿，但傅先生认为赔偿不足，拒绝了这一提议。

‘Two sessions’ 2025: who’s up and who’s down in China’s economy?
中国经济发展重心正在转移，科技行业备受瞩目。 习近平主席近期与中国顶尖企业家的座谈会，受邀嘉宾名单预示着未来经济发展的重点领域。与2018年的类似会议相比，本次参会者主要来自科技、农业和消费品行业，房地产行业则无人受邀，这反映出中国经济结构调整的方向。
中国正在召开两会，预计将出台更多支持民营经济的政策。尽管国有企业和民营企业之间的关系备受关注，但无论所有制形式如何，新兴产业取代传统产业已成为中国经济结构调整的主要趋势。这意味着政府的扶持政策将向特定行业倾斜，以推动经济转型和高质量发展。

US eggs crisis an opportunity for Asean to crack the American market
The United States is grappling with a severe bird flu outbreak that is decimating poultry stocks and causing egg prices to skyrocket, potentially increasing by 41% in 2025. This crisis has American households struggling to afford a basic grocery item, prompting the US to seek relief through imports.
While current import sources like Canada, Taiwan, Lithuania, and Turkey may not be sufficient to stabilize prices, Southeast Asia, with its vast agricultural potential, remains largely untapped. The US has historically been self-sufficient in egg production, but the avian flu outbreak has forced the culling of millions of chickens and necessitated the exploration of diversified import options, raising the question of whether this crisis could present an opportunity for ASEAN nations to become strategic agricultural suppliers to the US.

Republicans unveil Trump-backed bill to avoid shutdown, daring Democrats to oppose it
US House Republicans have introduced a spending bill to fund federal agencies through September 30, setting the stage for a showdown with Democrats. The bill proposes a slight increase in defense spending while cutting non-defense programs below 2024 levels, a move that Democrats are likely to oppose, as they advocate for equal treatment of defense and non-defense spending.
With a Friday deadline looming to avert a partial government shutdown, Republican Speaker Mike Johnson plans a Tuesday vote on the bill, challenging Democrats to oppose it. This strategy, supported by former President Trump, breaks from the norm of bipartisan collaboration on spending measures, as Republicans typically need Democratic votes to pass such legislation. The outcome of this high-stakes gamble remains uncertain.

Gaza protesters vandalise Trump’s Scottish golf resort
Pro-Palestinian activists vandalized Donald Trump's Turnberry golf course and hotel in Scotland, protesting his proposal to empty the Gaza Strip of its Palestinian population. The activists painted "Gaza Is Not For Sale" on the lawn and used red spray paint on the clubhouse exterior, directly targeting Trump's property in response to his perceived treatment of Gaza.
Palestine Action claimed responsibility, stating they reject Trump's view of Gaza as disposable property and aimed to demonstrate that his own assets are not immune to resistance. Police Scotland confirmed they are investigating the damage reported at the golf course early Saturday morning.

Iran’s supreme leader slams US ‘bullying’ after Trump threats
伊朗最高领袖哈梅内伊周六表示，伊朗不会屈服于胁迫进行谈判。此前一天，美国总统特朗普声称已致信伊朗最高领导人，试图促成关于核协议的谈判。特朗普政府对伊朗采取强硬立场，但同时也表示愿意通过谈判解决问题。
哈梅内伊指出，华盛顿方面提出谈判的目的是为了“强加他们的期望”。他强调，一些恃强凌弱的政府坚持谈判并非为了解决问题，而是为了提出新的要求，而且不仅仅局限于伊朗的核问题。特朗普在任期间退出了伊朗与主要大国之间的核协议，并重新实施了“极限施压”政策，试图孤立伊朗并将其石油出口降至零。

Myanmar election to be held by January, junta chief says
Myanmar's junta chief, General Min Aung Hlaing, announced that the country plans to hold elections in December 2025 or January 2026. This would be the first election since the military coup in 2021, which ousted Aung San Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy (NLD).
The junta seized power alleging fraud in the 2020 elections, a claim widely disputed. Since then, Myanmar has been embroiled in conflict, and the military has cracked down on dissent. Hlaing stated the upcoming vote would be "free and fair" and invited observers from Belarus, a country with close ties to the regime, to monitor the process. Critics, however, remain skeptical, anticipating that the elections will be neither free nor fair given the current political climate and ongoing repression.

Why concern is growing in Taiwan about chip giant TSMC’s pledge to invest in Arizona
Taiwan is increasingly concerned that TSMC's commitment to invest billions in Arizona, driven by pressure from Donald Trump, could weaken Taiwan's leading position in the global semiconductor market. The investment includes a research center, advanced packaging facilities, and additional semiconductor fabs, significantly increasing TSMC's total investment in Arizona to $165 billion.
This move comes after Trump repeatedly accused Taiwan of "stealing" from the US chip industry and threatened tariffs on imported chips. Max Lo, from the Taiwan International Strategic Study Society, suggests Trump's aggressive tariff strategy has been successful in compelling TSMC to invest heavily in the US, potentially impacting Taiwan's semiconductor dominance.

China’s Ne Zha 2 still flying high as highest-grossing animated movie of all time
Ne Zha 2 has become the highest-grossing animated film of all time, surpassing US$2 billion in ticket sales and marking a significant milestone for China's animation industry. This achievement signifies a shift in the global film market, demonstrating that Western dominance in China is diminishing.

Years of dedicated effort and industrialization have culminated in Ne Zha 2's groundbreaking success. While some caution against expecting a continuous stream of similar box office hits, the film's achievement is widely celebrated as a victory for the entire Chinese animation industry.
