Among them, there are many artists promoting products that they have never used themselves. And only after being discovered and exposed in front of the public, did the artist officially have an apology with explanations for his own wrong. Artist Quyen Linh, who used to advertise, claims that the product he is introducing is 70 times better than normal curcumin – the function is not listed in the advertising certificate issued by the Food Safety Authority. , expressed regret: “The recent advertising incident is a profound lesson for me after more than 20 years of doing art. I apologize to the audience for my lack of restraint. This is a lesson for me to learn from. I have never advertised a product that is not from a clear source.” Or recently, People’s Artist Hong Van posted on his personal Facebook page an apology to the audience for advertising low-quality products: “Van would like to bow her head to apologize for failing to check the credibility and method of sales of the product advertised. As an artist who receives a lot of love and support and trust from the public. Van deeply regrets not being fully aware of his responsibilities. Van apologizes for acting recklessly.” Along with that are the explanations: “Before receiving the advertisement, Van reviewed the business license and qualified product certificate from the Health Department. However, the promotional video makes consumers misunderstand about drugs and functional foods, making the audience angry. Not only Quyen Linh and Hong Van, but in fact, many other artists have also been accused of false advertising but have remained silent so far. Surely people still can’t forget the “11 billion dong of fake cosmetics” case from a distribution company that happened in 2017. Many artists were condemned by netizens for abetting fraud and taking advantage of trust. fan love. And there are many other controversies of the artist world related to the introduction of poor quality products that took place in the past but not a single artist was dealt with. It is the lack of strict handling that has led to the current state of rampant advertising, out of control. It is normal for artists to sign advertising contracts with brands and businesses to advertise products, goods and services. It is a legitimate and legitimate source of income for artists. However, participating in the advertising market, artists need to learn the legal regulations. When an artist falsely advertises and deceives consumers, it is a wrongdoing, violating the law because of the risk of adverse effects on health, life and economic damage to those who have trust them. Artists must also be equal before the law like other citizens. This means that it must be handled in accordance with current law. With the public apology of some artists, it partly received sympathy from the public. But many people think that it is necessary to punish in accordance with the law to be a deterrent. Because the products that artists advertise falsely are things that directly affect human health that can be dangerous at any time. It’s not that the artist who made a mistake is allowed to let it go after publicly apologizing. According to Article 50, Decree No. 38/2021/ND-CP of the Government, effective from June 1, violations of regulations on drug advertising can be fined up to 40 million VND. Even the violator may be prosecuted for penal liability, if causing damage must pay compensation according to the provisions of law.

Public opinion is still waiting for the results of inspection and handling by relevant authorities for acts showing signs of taking advantage of fame to deceive, abetting the bad guys to deceive consumers, avoiding the situation. “beat the drums with the drumsticks”.

Image of floods in Central Vietnam in 2020, one of the natural losses of Vietnam. A global study commissioned by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and commissioned by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), shows that public interest in nature has increased markedly (16%). ) over the past five years and continues to increase during the Covid-19 pandemic. The figures are released ahead of the United Nations’ International Day of Biodiversity (May 22), the date chosen to increase public understanding and awareness of biodiversity issues. Expressing growing concern about nature People around the world, especially in emerging economies, are becoming more aware of the planet’s environmental crisis. This has impacted their behavior, especially as a wave of what WWF calls an “ecological awakening” is growing. Current trends also show that the behavior of individuals and consumers is affected by these concerns and they demand drastic action to address the loss of nature and biodiversity. The report “Ecological Awakening: Measuring Global Awareness, Participation and Action for Nature” shows that environmental activism is exploding in online media. Over the past four years, mentions of environmental issues on Twitter have increased by 65%, with the topic of nature and biodiversity increasing from 30 million to 50 million. Many influential individuals and entities such as spiritual leaders, politicians and media organizations, news and celebrities, have spoken out for nature, with social media posts. The festival reaches more than 1 billion audiences worldwide. The study also shows that consumers are increasing their interest in nature through Google searches related to this topic, especially in Asian and Latin American countries such as Indonesia (increased). 53%) and India (up 190%). Many consumers around the world are changing their behavior In addition, more and more people are realizing the loss of nature is a serious global problem. Specifically, 96% of people living in Latin America agree with this when surveyed (the region with the highest percentage). This shift from the community reflects a fact worth pondering, as people in developing regions are experiencing more devastating effects from the loss of nature than elsewhere. After an era of protest marches and petitions, now more and more consumers around the world are changing their behavior such as adjusting their buying habits, buying only what is right for them. with their values ​​and needs. The analysis shows a staggering 71% increase in search results for sustainable products since 2016, popular in high-income countries, such as the UK, US, Germany, Australia and Canada. However, this trend is not only found in these economies, but also appears and increases in emerging economies or developing countries such as Indonesia (24%) and Ecuador (120%). This pressure is forcing manufacturing corporations to respond with action, especially in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, fashion and food sectors. Since 2016, more than 159 million signatures for biodiversity-related campaigns have been collected, along with an increase in the magnitude and frequency of protests worldwide to demand requires decision-makers to take drastic action for the planet and future generations, in the face of growing nature conservation movements. Information about Southeast Asian countries in the report. Immediate action is needed to prevent damage to nature However, despite the tremendous rate of destruction of nature and the threat this devastation poses to the global economy and human health, nature is rarely a high-priority topic. global agendas. “Scientists and economists have understood. The public was well aware. And the solutions are also obvious. Both the community and society are supporting the process of transforming economic models and sustainable development in which the protection of nature is considered a moral obligation, in return for the life that the earth brings as well as the vital service this planet provides to our economy, welfare, health and security. This is truly an historic “ecological awakening” and an opportunity to rebalance man’s relationship with nature,” said Marco Lambertini, WWF International Director General. The loss of nature is increasing humanity’s vulnerability to pandemics, undermining efforts to tackle the climate crisis and threatening livelihoods. Leaders are expected to make key decisions later this year on climate and environmental issues. These decisions could represent an important opportunity to reverse biodiversity loss, ensure nature is restored this decade, and support climate action and the Sustainable Development Goals. According to this report, Vietnam, a country with a high level of biodiversity – joined the Climate Change Working Group of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in 2021. As a country As a member, Vietnam will participate in regional initiatives such as preventing ocean plastic waste, initiatives to tackle air pollution and transboundary water pollution.

1. Redesign old clothes quần As a royal figure, there is no need to worry about finances, but Kate Middleton often reuses clothes when appearing at different events. To make the outfit look more fresh, Kate will change a few small details such as cutting sleeves, changing belts, combining with other shoes. For example, in 2013, the Duchess appeared in public wearing a coat she had worn two years earlier. But this time, she changed the belt to make the overall look more modern. 2. Makeup for legs instead of tights Members of the royal family need to wear neutral-colored tights at official events regardless of weather conditions. But Queen Letizia always ignored this rule. Instead, the First Lady of Spain opted for make-up on her legs. This secret helps her skin look healthy and shiny. 3. Neutral nail polish Kate Middleton follows every royal beauty rule without a hitch. She always wears neutral nails because the Queen takes this principle very seriously. Besides, the neutral color also makes the nails look bright and not wavy like other bold colors. 4. Use primer instead of foundation Meghan Markle likes to wear natural makeup and never hides her freckles. She only uses primer when applying makeup, and foundation will be used in official events. 5. Shoes of different sizes Kate Middleton always has to stand for long hours when attending events, so she is very careful when choosing shoe size. Depending on the weather, style and brand, Kate will have different ways of buying shoes. For example, when buying summer shoes, Kate will choose one size larger in case her feet swell from the heat. 6. Multi-function shawl As a rule, representatives of the royal family are not allowed to undress in public. That’s why Queen Elizabeth II and Kate Middleton always appear in a well-dressed coat. However, they cannot wear a coat when wearing an evening dress. At this time, a shawl will be a tool to ‘rescue’ the queens from freezing to death. 7. Additional shoe sole Queen Letizia often adds an outer pad to make her heels more stable and not slip. She improved many designer shoes with the help of this simple construction. 8. Hairstyles During the 80s, Princess Diana almost wore only one hairstyle. In fact, her hair has changed but it is difficult to notice. Every week, the stylist will cut 0.6cm of her hair. Thus, she has both a satisfactory hairstyle while avoiding all the attention of the media.

In order to always look perfect, the royal ladies used some small but useful tricks to avoid awkward situations. We’ve researched many fashion forums and found out what “hacks” help modern-day representatives of kings always look good. Redesigning old clothes Unlike many public figures, Kate Middleton has never been shy about appearing at different events wearing the same outfits. To make her outfits look fresh and modern, Kate redesigned them by changing a few small details. In 2013, the Duchess appeared in public wearing a coat she had worn two years earlier. But this time, she changed the belt, making the whole outfit shine with new colors. Nails of natural color Kate Middleton can hardly be seen with bright nail polish. It is believed that it is all prescribed by etiquette. Perhaps Kate follows all the rules without a doubt, but another reason to choose natural colored nails is for practicality because naturally colored nails will last longer. Shoes come in different sizes Kate Middleton has to wear high heels for several hours a day. That is why she is very careful in choosing shoes. The Duchess chooses her shoe size depending on the style and brand. For example, Kate mostly buys summer shoes one size or half a size larger, as it will help her avoid blisters on her feet. Limit the use of makeup cream Meghan Markle is a supporter of natural looks and doesn’t hide her slightly red freckles under heavy makeup. For this reason, Prince Harry’s wife is very limited in using primer and only applies makeup foundation to certain areas of the face during important events. Multifunctional shawl According to protocol, representatives of the royal family are not allowed to take off their outer clothing in public. That’s why Elizabeth II and Kate Middleton can be seen often in elegant coat outfits. And while they look perfectly suited to everyday looks, it’s pretty hard to imagine wearing evening gowns with outerwear. That’s when a casual shawl or a matching gown can come to the rescue. They will help keep the body warm in cold weather without breaking the rules.

A talent show encouraged fans to buy milk to scan the QR code to support the idol. China’s top cyber watchdog has pledged to work harder in shaping how young people in the country follow and support celebrities on online platforms. This move came after the appearance of a video that angered the public.

The show was also canceled. “There is nothing wrong with admiring the stars, but pursuing them without stopping is a problem,” said Zhang.

Amanda Keravel, female editor-in-chief of the French travel guidebook Routard , and Fran # ois Vey, author of the book on the Secrets of “Mrs. Dam Iron” (La Dame de fer) (follow La Tour Eiffel, Vérités et légendes, éditions Perrin . 2018), recounting 10 unknown anecdotes about the Eiffel Tower inaugurated on the occasion of the world exhibition in 1889. 1. The Eiffel Tower might have a different name The Eiffel Tower may have been called the Bonickhausen tower because engineer Gustave Eiffel, who was involved in the construction of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, was not born with the name we know it today. His family is of German origin, his birth name is Gustave Bonickhausen. “At first, Gustave Eiffel kept his German name. Then during the Franco-French War of 1870, this name made it difficult for his business, ”explained Fran # ois Vey. He submitted to the Government Council to change his surname and was approved in 1881, a few years before the design and construction of the tower. This is because it was later called the Eiffel Tower, not the Bonickhausen tower. 2. Gustave Eiffel did not create, design the Eiffel Tower, but bought the patents of the first inventors. History retains the name of Gustave Eiffel. But as Amanda Keravel said: “Gustave Eiffel was not the inventor of the tower”. Fran # ois Vey adds: “Surrounded by excellent engineers, he asked them to work on a project to prepare the World Exhibition in Paris in 1889. The engineers Maurice Koechlin and Émile Nouguier imagined this project and drew the first prototype. ” Then an architect, Stephen Sauvestre, came up with the figure we see today. Inspired by the project, Gustave Eiffel later acquired the patents of two engineers and persuaded all political and industrial circles to build the tower. He is also the funding provider for the project. That is why the name of this great industrialist and businessman was so famous in the political world at that time, used to name the tower. 3. When built, the Eiffel Tower was the tallest building in the world “Building the tallest tower in the world was an imaginary project for all the engineers back then,” explains Fran # ois Vey. When designing the Eiffel Tower, the goal was to build a tower that was 1,000 feet high, or about 300 meters. Therefore, for many years, the Eiffel Tower was the tallest tower in the world. “It was truly a technical feat at the time. Americans are very curious, even jealous. The American press loudly reported on the front page about the inauguration of the tower. Many American delegations came to see, ”said Fran # ois Vey. It was not until 1930 that the Eiffel Tower was dethroned by the Chrysler building in New York (319 meters) and the Empire State Building (381 meters). Today, many other towers are twice as tall as the Eiffel Tower, such as Taipei Tower (508 meters) or Burj Dubai Tower (828 meters). 4. The Eiffel Tower has repeatedly escaped destruction Amanda Keravel said: “When the construction is completed, the Eiffel Tower is just a sightseeing spot and has no other function. Hence the original contract is expected to demolish the tower ”. The concession was planned for 20 years from 1890. Therefore, in 1910, the tower was supposed to be dismantled. But Gustave Eiffel made a clear determination to keep the tower. Fran # ois Vey added: “For most of his life, Gustave Eiffel struggled to extend the franchise”. In the end, the concession was extended several times. And then, the public’s admiration as well as the various uses of the Eiffel Tower for new technologies made it indispensable. Today, no one imagined the Eiffel Tower would be dismantled. 5. Utilized and occupied by the Germans, the Eiffel Tower played a major role in the two world wars In its entire history, the Eiffel Tower was only closed to the public three times: during the Coronavirus 2020 pandemic, and during the World Wars of 1914-1918 and 1939-1945. Fran # ois Vey explains: “In 1914, the French army used the Eiffel Tower as a listening center for German radio stations”. The gathered information enabled the French to identify a decisive attack point for the battle of La Marne. During World War II, Germans occupied the Eiffel Tower to place the antenna at the top of the tower. Released in 1944, the Eiffel Tower was used by the US military as a place for soldiers to relax: a nightclub formed on the first floor. The tower was only handed over to France in 1946. In addition to the above conflicts, the tower is also used for many military experiments. A building reminiscent of this “military” past. “A bongke is built at the foot of the tower. Today, it is used as the mechanical storage of the engine system. It is also used to transport food to the Eiffel Tower restaurants. Since the restaurants are relatively small, some dishes are prepared in this bongke, “said Amanda Keravel. 6. The Eiffel Tower played an important role in the development of television Thanks to the Eiffel Tower, French people were able to watch the Queen’s coronation in 1953. “The antenna helps to record from England and broadcast in France,” Amanda Keravel said. This anecdote illustrates the importance of the Eiffel Tower to the telecommunications industry. Throughout history, antennas placed on top of the Eiffel Tower have been used for many experiments in wave propagation. Fran # ois Vey adds: “In 1903, the first wireless telegraph experiments were carried out on the tower. The Eiffel Tower is also used for radio and is currently broadcasting terrestrial digital television in Paris. 7. A scammer pretended to sell the Eiffel Tower before fleeing with the proceeds In 1925, a crook sold the Eiffel Tower, although never owned it. Amanda Keravel said: “Victor Lustig had read an article explaining that it was very expensive to repair the tower. From there Victor came up with the idea of ​​pretending that it was for sale. This name sent to several scrap dealers with an offer to sell the tower to the highest bidder, and made it clear that it was necessary to keep the project a secret until the sale is complete. “. A scrap dealer fell into the trap and signed a check of great value. And then, Victor ran away with the money he wiped. “The victim was so embarrassed that he never sued,” reported the editor-in-chief of the French travel guide Routard. 8. The Eiffel Tower has never been brown and 3 paint colors are still used When looking at the Eiffel Tower, you can only see one color throughout the tower. However, this is only an optical effect! “Gustave Eiffel devised a technique: in order for the colors to appear uniform from below, three colors had to be used. Darker colors below and lighter colors above, ”revealed Amanda Keravel. This trick is still used until now. However, the tower is not always brown. “The Eiffel Tower is painted and repainted regularly. Between the original color and the color today, nearly 12 different official colors are used, including sepia, brown, ocher and beige ”, said Fran # ois Vey. 9. It shrinks in winter and moves in summer Like all tall buildings, the Eiffel Tower is quite sensitive to the environment. The low winter temperatures can cause it to shrink from 4 cm to 8 cm. During the hot summer months, metal moves the tower. In fact, iron is subjected to an expansion force that causes the tower to grow a few centimeters larger and may cause the tower to tilt a bit. If the sun heats one side, the tower can tilt to the other a few centimeters. In contrast, the tower is insensitive to wind. The reason is simple: “Its construction allows the wind to blow through”, emphasizes Fran # ois Vey. 10. From now to 2024, the Eiffel Tower will have a new face In 2024, the Eiffel Tower will become the center of attention of the world when the Olympic Games take place in France. “This is also the symbol used for the first Paris logo in 2024,” said Fran # ois Vey. A modernization plan is underway for the neighborhood. Many embellishments are planned to facilitate promenade. The Big Park Trocadéro will be connected to the Eiffel Tower.
