Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Sports Park area needs stronger business ecosystem: lawmakers
香港立法会议员呼吁加大力度，促进启德体育园周边的商业生态系统，以鼓励零售和餐饮消费，因为香港国际七人榄球赛将于下月移师至该场地举行。议员们认为，需要更多措施来确保观众能为该地区的其他企业带来效益。
旅游界立法会议员姚柏良表示，3月28日至30日举行的七人榄球赛，大部分酒店预订都集中在香港岛。他指出，即使赛事已从铜锣湾的香港大球场移至启德的新场地，访客仍然更习惯于港岛一侧。姚柏良同时强调，不应重演此前世界桌球大奖赛期间，球迷被要求中途离场的事件，尤其七人榄球赛是香港一项历史悠久且备受瞩目的赛事。

Indonesia, Saudi Arabia agree on new labour protections
印尼将解除长达十年的劳工禁令，允许公民前往沙特阿拉伯从事家政和正式部门工作。这一决定是在沙特阿拉伯承诺加强劳工保护后做出的，两国部长将于本月在吉达签署谅解备忘录，以促进劳务人员的合法安置。
此前，由于担心虐待问题，印尼曾禁止向多个中东国家派遣劳工。然而，禁令存在漏洞，导致大量无证劳工涌入，以满足当地的巨大需求。此次沙特政府提供了多达60万个工作岗位，其中包括40万个家政工人岗位和20万个正式部门岗位。新的协议还将包括更强的劳工保护措施，例如每月最低工资约为1500里亚尔（约合399美元）。

China lays track for stronger regional relations through railway lines
中国正通过跨境铁路项目加强与周边国家的互联互通，提升其在地缘政治中的影响力。这些铁路项目包括连接蒙古的线路、延伸至吉尔吉斯斯坦和乌兹别克斯坦的铁路，以及通往越南和泰国的线路。这些举措旨在深化中国与区域贸易伙伴的关系，并促进区域经济发展。
分析人士指出，这些交通和物流线路向东南亚和中亚的延伸，表明中国有意与这些地区建立更稳定的联系，以应对美国总统特朗普领导下的贸易不确定性。亚洲内部贸易占据了亚洲贸易的近60%，因此各国希望加强与该地区最大经济体的贸易和交通联系是合理的。例如，中蒙签署了关于共同建设跨境铁路的战略伙伴协议，重点在于货物码头和转运。

Hong Kong multiple-entry scheme ‘likely to cover more mainland cities this year’
香港立法会议员兼全国人民代表大会常务委员会代表李慧琼表示，预计今年将扩大深圳居民赴港多次往返签证计划至更多中国大陆城市，并呼吁将北京和上海纳入该计划。此举旨在促进香港旅游业发展，并响应中国大陆在“两会”期间提出的将香港作为国际交流重点的倡议。
去年11月，中国大陆宣布超过1000万深圳居民可以申请一年内无限次赴港签证，每次停留不超过7天。李慧琼认为，除了粤港澳大湾区内的城市，北京和上海也应被考虑纳入多次往返签证计划，因为这些城市人口众多，且距离香港较远，游客可能会选择更长的停留时间。她同时强调，香港需要提升服务质量，确保游客拥有积极的体验，从而提高回头率。

China Vanke’s Le Mont project in Tai Po selling briskly despite mortgage concerns
China Vanke sold approximately 25% of the 228 available units at its Le Mont project in Tai Po, Hong Kong, on the first day of sales. Despite reports of some Hong Kong banks refusing to extend mortgages to prospective buyers, 58 flats were sold by 1pm on Saturday, with expectations that all units would be sold by day's end. The strong initial sales suggest continued buyer interest despite the financial headwinds faced by the developer.
The Le Mont project features units ranging from 214 to 873 sq ft, with prices between HK$2.38 million and HK$11.41 million (US$306,000 to US$1.47 million), or HK$9,185 and HK$14,392 per square foot. These prices are reportedly over 30% lower than comparable properties in the area from two years ago. The project attracted significant interest, with over 7,400 applications for the 228 units, representing an oversubscription of more than 31 times. This launch comes as China Vanke, once a leading mainland developer, navigates a liquidity crisis and challenges related to mortgage approvals for the project.

Malaysians are hooked on Chinese micro-dramas. Can local creators cash in?
Chinese micro-dramas, with their short, one-minute episodes filled with family drama, betrayals, and romance, have become increasingly popular in Malaysia. These fast-paced shows, easily accessible on smartphones, are enjoyed by many during commutes or brief breaks, and now local content creators are looking to capitalize on this trend.
Shows like *Addicted Only to You* and *White Moonlight* have gained a loyal following in Malaysia, despite some criticism labeling them as "lowbrow." The Chinese micro-drama industry generated a massive US$5 billion in revenue last year, fueled by platforms like RedNote, Douyin (the Chinese TikTok), and Bilibili, indicating a significant potential market for similar content.

China woman surviving cliff fall caused by husband, reveals IVF newborn has heart disease
Wang Nan, a Chinese woman who survived being pushed off a cliff in Thailand by her husband in 2019, revealed that her newborn son, conceived through IVF, is battling congenital heart disease. Wang, known online as Wang Nuannuan, suffered severe injuries, including 17 fractures, when her husband attempted to murder her to inherit her wealth and pay off gambling debts.
The incident occurred during a vacation in Thailand, where her husband, Yu Xiaodong, pushed her off a 34-meter cliff. Wang was pregnant at the time and tragically lost her unborn child. Doctors warned her that she might not be able to conceive naturally again. Yu Xiaodong was sentenced to 33 years and four months in prison by a Thai court for the attempted murder.

Controversial Unification Church may be dissolved in Japan
日本Unification Church（统一教会）或将失去法律认可，最早可能在本月。此前，该教会被指控强迫信徒捐款，导致生活困顿，并被指责存在忽视儿童的情况，但教会否认有任何不当行为。一旦解散，教会将失去免税地位，并被贴上“有害实体”的标签。
统一教会受到密切关注的背景是，前首相安倍晋三在2022年竞选活动中被枪杀，据称凶手对统一教会怀有怨恨。此前，日本当局已于2023年10月表示，正寻求解散这个在韩国成立的、极具影响力的教会，该教会又被称为“文鲜明派”，以其已故创始人文鲜明的名字命名。

Beijing hits out at ‘arrogant and malicious’ G7 criticisms over South China Sea and Taiwan
China has strongly condemned the Group of 7 (G7) nations, accusing them of "arrogance, prejudice, and malice" following criticisms of Beijing's actions in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait. The Chinese embassy in Canada, where the G7 foreign ministers' meeting was held, stated that the G7's statements were a blatant smear and a gross interference in China's internal affairs, lodging a formal protest with the Canadian government.
The G7's declaration on maritime security specifically accused China of "illicit, provocative, coercive, and dangerous" actions in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait. This comes amid ongoing trade tensions between China, the United States, and other G7 members. Furthermore, there is speculation that Donald Trump's potential return to the US presidency and his stance on issues like the war in Ukraine could create opportunities for China to strengthen ties with European and Asian allies of the US.

Head of Islamic State in Iraq and Syria killed, Iraqi PM says
The leader of Islamic State (ISIS) in Iraq and Syria, Abdallah Maki Mosleh al-Rifai (also known as "Abu Khadija"), has been killed in Iraq. The operation was a joint effort between the Iraqi national intelligence service and US-led coalition forces, according to an announcement made by Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani.
Al-Rifai was described as the "deputy caliph" of ISIS and "one of the most dangerous terrorists in Iraq and the world." The operation, reportedly an airstrike, took place in Anbar province in western Iraq, with his death confirmed on Friday. Former U.S. President Donald Trump also commented on the event, praising the coordinated effort with the Iraqi government and Kurdish regional government in hunting down the ISIS leader.

Will this Chinese-engineered ‘bacterial assassin’ transform cancer treatment?
Chinese researchers have engineered bacteria to selectively destroy tumors in mice, achieving an 80% reduction in colorectal, melanoma, and bladder cancer volumes and a 100% survival rate. This breakthrough, published in Cell, demonstrates a potential method for evading human immune responses while targeting and eliminating cancer cells, even vaccinating survivors against future tumor development.
The engineered bacteria, a strain of Salmonella typhimurium called "Designer Bacterium 1" (DB1), utilizes a synthetic biological "kill switch" to bridge a major gap in immunotherapy. This approach allows for the precise targeting of malignancies while mitigating the inherent dangers of using bacteria in treatment. Researchers suggest that most human tumors already possess a molecular "key" that could make this bacterial therapy a universal cancer cure.

US targets 41 countries for travel curbs ranging from Iran to Pakistan: memo
The Trump administration is considering imposing sweeping travel restrictions on citizens from 41 countries. An internal memo reveals the potential ban, dividing the countries into three groups with varying levels of restrictions.
The first group of 10 countries, including Afghanistan, Iran, Syria, Cuba, and North Korea, could face a full visa suspension. A second group of five countries, such as Eritrea, Haiti, Laos, Myanmar, and South Sudan, may experience partial suspensions affecting tourist, student, and immigrant visas. The remaining 26 countries, including Belarus, Pakistan, and Turkmenistan, could face partial visa suspensions if their governments fail to address identified deficiencies within 60 days. However, a US official cautioned that the list is subject to change and requires final approval from the administration.

China’s 4 golden flowers: how Beijing invests its US$3.2 trillion reserves
中国拥有全球规模最大的外汇储备，截至2月末达到3.227万亿美元。为了管理这笔巨额财富，中国设立了四个境外投资机构，分别位于香港（华安）、新加坡（华新）、伦敦（华欧）和纽约（华美），它们隶属于国家外汇管理局（SAFE）。
这四个机构被业内称为“四朵金花”，它们自上世纪90年代起就已是中国外汇储备全球布局的重要组成部分。它们的主要任务是在全球范围内进行战略投资，涵盖股票、新兴市场和其他资产类别，从而实现外汇储备的多元化配置，提升跨时区和市场的投资管理能力。国家外汇管理局始终坚持“安全、流动、保值增值”的管理目标，并将可持续性作为长期目标，自1994年实行集中管理以来，一直秉持多元化和分散化的原则。
