The Digital Transformation Manual for businesses has just been officially published. (Source: Ministry of Planning and Investment) This Guide was developed by experts from the Program to support businesses in digital transformation for the period 2021-2025 of the Ministry of Planning and Investment, in collaboration with the USAID LinkSME Project. According to experts from the Program to support businesses in digital transformation for the 2021-2025 period of the Ministry of Planning and Investment, the digital transformation roadmap for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Vietnam is recommended through the following: the following common stages: the preparation phase and the 3 stages to make the gradual transition from “doing digital” to “being digital”. These stages are relative, depending on the actual situation, goals and potentials of each enterprise, they can be implemented in parallel or in succession. Specifically, as recommended by experts, the preparation phase is to define digital transformation goals and strategies. State 1 , apply digital transformation of business models such as: Applying digital technology (CNS) to expand the system of distribution channels, marketing, sales and improve the efficiency of customer care activities, forming Experience customer; Step by step applying digital technology to the supply chain (connecting inventory management, production, input purchasing); Applying digital technology to accounting and finance operations; Building a common database framework on business, supply and accounting; Develop business and data security policies and apply security tools… Phase 2 ,focusing on digital transformation of management models, including production processes and technology processes, such as: Completing the governance model and defining integrated data requirements for the next step; Building and perfecting the governance model from organizational structure, people, policies and processes to all functional areas of the enterprise; Develop management indicators (KPI/OKR) and management reporting system, and database requirements; Identify requirements for comprehensive digital transformation and integration purposes; Apply CNS to the management reporting system; … Stage 3, Connecting business and administration, innovating to create new products and services such as: Applying CNS to gradually connect existing systems into a seamless information system from business to enterprises corporate governance; Building a common database in the entire enterprise; Invest in innovation (R&D) to drive changes in products and services and continuously upgrade existing systems; Applying new CNS to ensure information safety and network security for data of the whole enterprise. According to aggregated information from the Guidelines, the Cisco & IDC 2020 Report on the digital maturity of SMEs in 14 countries in the Asia Pacific region shows that 31% of businesses are in the digital maturity stage. the first stage of digital transformation, down 8% compared to 2019; 53% of businesses are in the next stage (“Observer” – “Observation”), up 3% compared to 2019; 13% of businesses are in the “Challenger” stage and 3% of businesses are “Mature” (“Native”), up 4% and 1% respectively compared to 2019. That shows that SMEs are mainly still learning and at the beginning of digital transformation. In particular, according to the Enterprise Development Department (Ministry of Planning and Investment), this is the first document that summarizes the map of technological solutions, independently evaluates the overview of the advantages and disadvantages of the different technologies. solutions, compare the readiness of domestic and international solutions in the Vietnamese market for businesses to consult and find the most suitable solution for their business conditions. The program to support businesses in digital transformation in the 2021-2025 period is chaired by the Ministry of Planning and Investment and coordinated by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). The program aims to achieve the goal that by 2025, 100% of businesses will have increased awareness of digital transformation; At least 100,000 businesses receive technical support on digital transformation; At least 100 businesses are supported as typical successful digital transformation models to spread and replicate; Establishing a network of experts including at least 100 organizations and individuals consulting, providing solutions to promote digital transformation for businesses, and supporting the development of digital platforms.

Wibu is a word used to refer to non-Japanese people who are obsessed with Japanese culture through Manga, Anime, lLght novels. In Vietnam, the term Wibu is often used with a negative connotation to refer to Anime and Manga fans who are too passionate, or those who do not know anything about Japanese culture but like to show off. Origin from Wibu Wibu is actually a re-pronunciation of the word Weeaboo. Weeaboo’s predecessor was Wapanese, which is a combination of white (white/white) or wannabe (want to be) and Japanese (belonging to Japan). Appearing a lot on the website 4chan in the early 2000s, the word Wapanese was born with the connotation of white people obsessed with Japanese culture, viewing it as superior to Japanese culture. national and other cultures. Later, people used the word Weeaboo more often instead of Wapanese, even though the meaning of both words was the same. Illustration Currently, this word is also used for other countries, not just the West. When Weeaboo was introduced to Vietnam, the word was changed to Wibu (pronounced Weeaboo). Today, wibu is also used to refer to those who do not understand Japan or Japanese culture but like to show off. Wibu identification Not everyone who loves Japanese culture is Wibu, but only passionate, outrageous fans who worship Japanese culture so much that they are ready to “stone war” with others to promote it. The new Japanese culture is Wibu. Illustration Some characteristics to identify Wibu: – People who are so obsessed with Japanese culture that they value Japanese culture more than their native culture and other cultures. – Shows an “obsession” with Manga, Anime and other cultures adapted from Japanese culture. – Use Japanese words as your catchphrase. Even Japanese words are misused by them. – Most of these people know Japan and Japanese based on Anime and Manga. – Another manifestation of Wibu is having a desire to become Japanese.

Wi-Fi 6 has the characteristics of high speed, high density, low power consumption, and low latency. The industry generally holds optimistic expectations for its prospects. For example, Gartner believes that from 2019 to 2023, the Wi-Fi 6 enterprise and small and medium-sized business market will grow from US$250 million to US$5.22 billion, with an average annual compound growth rate of 114%.

The bright market prospects have attracted many powerful players, including Inspur.com. Zhu Lixin, general manager of Inspur Network Product Department, said that in combination with the trend of Internet of Everything, Inspur Networks has established itself as a market position of “closely combining Wi-Fi 6 with the Internet of Things”.

Wi-Fi 6 enters explosive growth stage

As a new-generation Wi-Fi standard, Wi-Fi 6 has greatly improved performance compared to Wi-Fi 5: capacity and speed are increased by more than 4 times; OFDMA (orthogonal frequency division multiple access) and TWT (target wake-up time) are introduced ) Technology, the former supports multi-rate, multi-device access, and the latter further reduces network power consumption and delay.

“Compared with Wi-Fi 5, Wi-Fi 6 has many improvements. It provides good support in terms of air interface utilization, high-density access, air interface security, and energy consumption.” Zhu Lixin believes that if 2019 is regarded as Wi-Fi In the first year of 6, Wi-Fi 6 has now entered an explosive growth stage. With the continuous popularization of terminals, more than 80% of Wi-Fi connections in the next two to three years will use Wi-Fi 6 technology.

Inspur Networks, which is optimistic about the development prospects of Wi-Fi 6, will begin to develop a layout in 2020. Of course, there are many established manufacturers in the Wi-Fi market, so how does Inspur Networks, as a rising star, establish its differentiated positioning? To this question, the answer given by Inspur Networks is “Internet of Things”.

From the perspective of market development trends, the Internet of Everything is moving towards the Internet of Everything and the Intelligent Connection of Everything, and the Internet of Things elements are getting stronger and stronger. From a technical point of view, Wi-Fi 6 adopts OFDMA technology, which can provide high bandwidth and multi-device access capabilities to meet The diversified access requirements of the Internet of Things, and TWT’s intelligent wake-up algorithm can fully reduce network power consumption and delay, and meet the low power consumption and low latency requirements of the Internet of Things. On the whole, the Internet of Things is the general trend, and Wi-Fi 6 naturally supports the Internet of Things.

Taking into account both Wi-Fi 6 and the Internet of Things, Inspur Networks has launched a solution that integrates the two: providing wireless access points with both Internet of Things and Wi-Fi 6 capabilities on the access side, and providing data communication services on the platform side The integrated Internet of Things is connected to the middle station to ensure that users can smoothly evolve from the Internet of Things access technology to Wi-Fi 6 in the future.

The Internet of Things is the core attribute

Zhu Lixin emphasized that the Internet of Things is the general trend, and future wireless networks must be native to the Internet of Things, and Inspur Networks solutions have good support for the native Internet of Things.

the first is safety , Implement the isolation of users, spaces, and applications through a containerized solution to ensure application security.The second is Openness , End-to-end support MQTT (Message Queue Transmission Protocol), which is different from the transparent transmission method, which prevents users from being “kidnapped” by a certain cloud service.The third is IoT perception , Through MQTT and CAPWAP (wireless AP control and configuration) to achieve dual-protocol plane business differentiation, to ensure a high perception of the Internet of things business.The fourth is Timeliness of IoT , The middle stage of the Internet of Things is linked with the back-end cloud platform to realize business deployment and linkage in a highly efficient and zero-code manner.

Among the above characteristics, the middle stage of the Internet of Things is particularly worth mentioning. “There are a large number of’chimney-style’ applications in the Internet of Things. The middle station of the Internet of Things connects applications and data at the connection point to achieve application integration and capability aggregation. The use of graphical drag and drop tools does not require programming to complete customer-defined intelligent application scenarios, making the Internet of Things From usable to easy to use.” Zhu Lixin said, “The Internet of Things has become the core competitiveness of Inspur Network Wi-Fi 6.”

Inspur’s Wi-Fi 6 solution has already shown its skills in the first trial. Zhu Lixin introduced that his solution has achieved key breakthroughs in education, medical care, manufacturing and other fields and has gained a place. It is also piloting Inspur’s own smart factory, setting a typical benchmark for Wi-Fi 6 empowering smart factories.

Looking forward to the future, Zhu Lixin said that Inspur Networks will launch more cost-effective converged access points and edge computing, and more powerful converged wireless controller products. At the same time, Inspur Networks will use the wireless and Internet of Things open architecture to join application ecosystem partners. Build a value plan together.

It is reported that Inspur Group is making every effort to consolidate and enhance its market position as an IT leader in recent years. Inspur Networks’ efforts in Wi-Fi 6 will surely enhance its wireless business capabilities, promote the realization of wired and wireless integration, and thereby improve Inspur Group’s network capabilities. , To provide help to strengthen the position of IT leader.

Perhaps the most common of the strange skulls ever discovered by humans are the elongated skulls. Many of these skulls have been found in Peru, especially near the Nazca Road and the Paracas peninsula. New finds are still made on a regular basis by grave robbers, who offer them on the black market. These skulls are characterized by their flat, elongated shape, and in many of them the mummy’s hair and skin are still attached. These skulls can be found in other places such as private museums – the Paracas History Museum and the Ica regional museums. Similar skulls have also been found around the world, including in Bolivia, France, Norway, Malta, Egypt, northern Iraq, Ukraine, Siberia, and South Africa (aboriginal people say the skulls are skulls). belongs to the Boskops) and Vanuatu in Oceania. Current science suggests that such a deformed skull shape is due to an old custom of the Aboriginal people, who decapitated babies’ heads to the point that they were deformed. But why this phenomenon seems to happen around the world, in unrelated cultures, is still not explained. In fact, these discovered skulls are sometimes almost twice the size of the average human skull. Many of these skulls are also missing some of the grooves that the average person possesses, including the frontal ridge and the sagittal sulcus. However, they have an additional groove, running diagonally across the forehead. The bones of these skulls are usually much thicker and more solid than our own. Meanwhile, the custom of beheading children does indeed exist in some cultures, perhaps as a result of the admiration that people have for their religious deities, who have long head. They imitate the shape of the head in the hope of becoming like the gods. In Egypt, people find not only skulls but also decorations, wall carvings of people with long heads in a considerable number, many traces that they are from the ancient time. greatness of the pharaohs. Egyptologists consider these to be the stylistic descriptions of commoners for royal headdresses. But unusually long skulls have also been found in mummies, such as those of King Tutankhamun – which are unusually long compared to others. Replica of King Tutankhamun’s mummy at an exhibition in New York. Some of the long skulls of the Paracas peninsula have been tested for DNA, but the DNA found is unlike any existing life form on Earth. Preston Nichols, a technical engineer who worked on the extremely secretive Montauk Project near New York, thinks these are the people who were worshiped like gods in ancient Egypt, they all had longer heads and double heads. eyes bigger than ours. However, there are many conspiracy theories that these long skulls belong to aliens from the Sirius B system. Indigenous tribes in the mountains of China, Tibet and the Dogon tribe of Mali, Europe Phi, also tells of long-standing contacts with guests from the Sirius star system. The priests of the Dogon tribe told Western researchers about the existence of a third star in the Sirius star system – a small star named Sirius C, much earlier than mainstream science. discovered it in 1995. 25 skeletons were found in the village of Onavas (Northwest Mexico) in 2012. 13 of them have elongated skulls, 5 of which have strange teeth: pointed incisors and flat fangs. While much remains unclear about the tombs, the team suggests that the difference in skulls and teeth is “a result of the customs used by the wealthy during that time”. While in other simple tombs, people could not find abnormal signs in the skull. Anunnaki’s skull Besides the elongated skulls, these skulls are believed by many conspiracy theorists to belong to an anthropomorphic reptile from the constellation Orion and the planet Niburu – more than 200,000 years ago, extraterrestrials. This earth was responsible for creating our species, homo sapiens. They mixed the DNA of their own species with the DNA of the Bushmen of South Africa, who were originally from Lemuria. In this way, they created a new race. The Anunnaki needed gold dust to protect the waning atmosphere of the planet Nibiru from the harsh effects of the universe. After this event, the Anunnaki people still regularly visit humans. They have interfered with human development in negative ways, even until recently. Furthermore, researcher Bill Ryan from the Camelot Project, says that the Anunnaki have a remarkably large chin when compared to humans. This description is consistent with many of the skulls that have been discovered, which have a large, broad chin. In the photos below, this non-human jaw shape can be clearly seen and certain cranial grooves are missing. Above: a human skull. Below: Anunnaki skull found near the old site of Puma Punku, in Bolivia. The human skull has a narrow chin, while the Bolivian skull, probably belonging to the Anunnaki, has a wide chin. On the right, you can see that the Bolivian skull cannot be human: the sagittal groove, which runs from the center of the head to the back of the head, is not found. Starchild skull This skull was discovered by an American couple in a mine in Mexico City, Chihuahua. They then took the skull home and kept it as a souvenir in their garage in El Paso, Texas, for the rest of their lives. In 1998, the strange skull was owned by two other residents of El Paso – Ray and Melanie Young. However, Melanie is a nurse and believes that this skull is a human defect. so she gave it to author and researcher Lloyd Pye (then 18 years old), who had written a book about humans like Bigfoot in America and Yeti in the Himalayas, and about the influence of Anunnaki on the development of humans. human development. Pye was fascinated by the skull (of which only the upper part remained) and tested its DNA several times. This was repeated over and over again and showed that the skull was hundreds of years old and the mother of the “creature” must have been human, but the father’s DNA showed that it was not present anywhere. anywhere on Earth. Pye named the creature “Starchild” and proposed the skull to science. However, they were not concerned and assumed that it was part of the malformed skull of a child who was likely to die from congenital hydrocephalus. Later, a similar skull was found in Peru. Lloyd Pye (1946 – 2013) with the “Starchild” skull. Sealand Skull The Sealand skull was discovered in 2007 in Olstykke, Denmark by workers replacing sewer pipes. Because of its strange shape, most scientists assumed it was a joke and showed no interest in studying it. Only in 2010 this skull was first examined at the College of Veterinary Medicine in Denmark. The researchers concluded that it was real, but they did not know to which species on Earth it belonged. This skull is larger than that of Homo sapiens, so they initially suspected it might be some kind of horse. However, further examination revealed that it also did not belong to the horse species. The skull was then sent to the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen. Carbon dating revealed that it belonged to an organism that lived between 1200 and 1280 BC, but they were unable to provide further information about the skull’s origin. So far this is the only skull discovered and many digging around the area where this skull was discovered has not found any other bone fragments on the body. Andahuaylillas’ mummy In 2011, Renato Davila Riquelme of the Privado Ritos Andinos museum in Cuzco, Peru, made an amazing discovery – a mysterious mummy with an elongated skull was found in the city of Andahuaylillas, a southern province of Quispicanchi, Peru This mummy has a strangely shaped head with a length of 50cm, but the body is only as small as that of a newborn baby (the skull is almost as long as the body). This mummy’s teeth are fully grown, but have fewer molars than humans. The eye socket is also much larger than that of a human. Its fontanel is open – usually only in babies under the age of one. Davila Riquelme invited three anthropologists from Spain and Russia to examine. They examined this strange mummy and concluded that it could not be human. They wanted to do a DNA study on the rest of the eyeball in the right eye socket to identify genetic DNA and thereby help determine if this was a human. However, the results of that study have never been made public.

More than 10km from the center of Muong Khuong district (Lao Cai) to the north towards Simacai, Pha Long pass is a famous pass in the Northwest. The name Pha Long pass originates from the top of the pass running through the Pha Long market, a small commune in the territory of Muong Khuong – Lao Cai. The whole Pha Long pass is about 20km long. The road is craggy with craggy rocks, running against the Chay river with a length of nearly 20km. Today, although it has been repaired and paved to make traveling more convenient than a few years ago, anyone passing by must still be very careful because the road is narrow and the slopes are getting higher and higher. Passing the winding pass is to Pha Long. Pha Long means “Flower Dragon” in the local language, this is a border highland commune of Muong Khuong district, Lao Cai province, where the Mong people have lived for generations. Pha Long brings its own feeling thanks to the ancient and peaceful from the old houses of the Mong people. The unique feature in the architecture of the ancient houses of the Mong people in Pha Long is that they are built according to a pattern with three compartments and two doors (including one main door, one side door and at least two windows). Many old houses in Pha Long today were built more than half a century ago. Pha Long is also famous for the Gau Tao festival (Grauk taox in Mong). This is a “specialty” of spiritual culture from thousands of generations of the Mong people here. Usually held on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Gau Tao Pha Long Festival is held on a large field, convenient to travel, with mountains and trees for young men and women to enjoy ethnic games such as throwing bows, swinging, swinging. tug, push stick… Invite readers to watch the video: Unique yearbook photos.

Mr. Xoi said: “This is a native jackfruit variety named To Tan, this jackfruit tree was given by a friend 25 years ago. Jackfruit has fruit all year round, delicious taste very strange, large, fleshy, flat seeds, very beautiful turmeric yellow color. Since planting until now, I have not applied any organic or inorganic fertilizers at all. Each year the tree gives 200 to 300 fruits”. This type of jackfruit from flowering to tree ripening is exactly 100 days, regardless of whether the weather is sunny or rainy. Each fruit when ripe has a weight of 2 to 2.2 kg and lies close to each other, giving off a very long aroma. Finding it strange, he tried branching with many methods to replicate but with no success. So now Mr. Xoi has only 1 strange jackfruit tree in the garden of 10,000 m2. Every year when the jackfruit is ripe, he only gives it to his neighbors to enjoy but does not sell, so the selling price has not been determined yet. (According to Popular Science Newspaper)

The statue “The Statue of Liberty” version of “phase ke” in Sa Pa caused fierce controversy. It is known that this “mutant” Statue of Liberty is made of plaster and cement, inside with a steel frame, the height is 30m. In addition, at this spontaneous tourist area also appears a copy of Mount Rushmore sculpture, portraits of four former US presidents. Recently, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Dong, the tourist destination with the “mutant” Statue of Liberty, said that the unit will repair the statue in a direction closer to the local culture. Specifically, the given idea is to edit the image of a H’Mong man. The crown part of the old statue will be replaced by the typical H’Mong men’s beret. In addition, the torch in the hands of the Statue of Liberty will turn into a khene, a type of national musical instrument associated with local traditions and culture. The image of the man blowing khene attached to the H’Mong culture. (Artwork from the Internet) “ My check-in point is located in Sa Pa, where the majority of H’Mong people are. Therefore, the modification of the statue from the Statue of Liberty to an image of a close H’Mong man, suitable for the local culture “- Mr. Dong shared with the press. However, Mr. Dong also affirmed that the tourist area’s decision to edit the statue was not because of being stoned by the public, but he wanted the place to be completed and more beautiful. .

Squeezing on top of a decommissioned volcano in northern Nevada, workers are preparing to blast and dig holes to mine the first large-scale lithium mine in the United States in more than a decade. According to the New York Times, Lithium is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of electric car batteries and renewable energy. This lithium mine was built on federal rental land and promises to address current US dependence on international lithium supplies. However, this Lithium Americas project was strongly opposed by members of the Native American tribe, the owner of the farm and the environmental groups. The project plans to use billions of gallons of groundwater in the area. In addition, the lithium mine has the potential to pollute for up to 300 years and leave severe consequences and huge waste of waste. The conflict surrounding the Nevada mine represents a new tense problem: Electric cars and renewables may not be as green as they seem. “Blowing a mountain is not environmentally friendly, no matter how much economic expectations people put on it,” said Max Wilbert, who lives at the proposed mine. Demand soared In addition to Nevada, private businesses are proposing other lithium mining sites in California, Oregon, Tennessee, Arkansas and North Carolina. According to the Bloomberg In the first three months of 2021 alone, lithium miners in the US raised nearly $ 3.5 billion from Wall Street, seven times the amount raised in the previous 36 months. This shows that a lithium boom is exploding as the electric car industry is becoming a new trend. Lithium is used in electric car batteries because it is light, stores a lot of energy and can be recharged many times. Analysts estimate demand for lithium will increase tenfold as Tesla, Volkswagen, General Motors and other automakers launch a series of new electric cars. Blasting a mountain is not environmentally friendly, no matter how much economic expectations people place on it. Max Wilbert, a resident of the Lithium Americans mining area. Therefore, the US needs to quickly find sources of lithium when electric car manufacturers accelerate production. Although the United States has the largest lithium reserves in the world, the country has only one large-scale lithium mine, the Silver Peak mine in Nevada. Mining started in the 1960s and produces only 5,000 tons / year – less than 2% of the world’s annual supply. Most of the raw lithium used in the United States comes from Latin America or Australia, which is then processed and manufactured into batteries in China and other Asian countries. The Lithium Americas mine under construction in Nevada is estimated to have a lithium value worth $ 3.9 billion. The operator is expected to start mining operations next year. The largest shareholder of the mine is Chinese company Ganfeng Lithium. However, traditional mining is one of the most “dirty” businesses today. For electric car manufacturers and renewable energy companies, this situation has not improved much. “While its intentions are good, the need for clean energy can do harm,” said Aimee Boulanger, executive director at mining services for BMW and Ford Motor. bigger”. “Dirty” industry On a hillside, Edward Bartell and the ranchers often go out early in the morning to make sure that 500 cows roam the 50,000-acre (202 km2) desert with enough food. Faced with a lithium mining project in the area, his family has never faced such a great threat. Not far from Bartell’s farm, the largest lithium Americans project in the United States is on the horizon. Mining ore will have helipads, chemical treatment plants and waste yards with the depth of the mine up to 112 m. Traditional mines are potentially dangerous to the environment, animals and people living in the area. Photo: NYT. Producing raw materials such as lithium, cobalt and nickel often harm the soil, water resources, wildlife and people in the area. Like the competition for gold and oil in the past, governments are taking advantage of minerals to gain future economic and technological dominance. However, in the economic and technological race between great powers, environmental issues are often forgotten. What Barbell was most worried about was that the mine would consume all the water of the cattle. The mining company said the mine would consume 3,224 gallons of water per minute (equivalent to 12,204 liters / min). Thus, the groundwater level in the land where Mr. Bartell is breeding could decrease by about 3.5m. In addition, if the mine targets to produce 66,000 tons of lithium carbonate per year, this mine could cause groundwater to be contaminated with antimony metals and arsenic. Lithium is extracted by mixing clay dug from a mountain slope with 5,800 tons of sulfuric acid per day. The documents show that the entire process produces 354 million cubic meters of waste extracted from sulfuric acid treatment and can contain radioactive uranium. A December assessment by the Ministry of the Interior found that over its 41-year lifespan, the lithium mine would damage nearly 20 square kilometers of antelope and wildfowl habitat. In addition, the mine will destroy the nesting area of ​​a breed of golden eagle and other wildlife. “It was disappointing that the lithium mine was introduced as an environmentally friendly project, when in fact it was just a giant industrial park,” said Mr. Bartell. He filed a lawsuit demanding to stop mining activities. “The war is not fair” So far, the Joe Biden administration has not moved to promote more eco-friendly strategies such as extracting lithium from sea salt water instead of opencast mining. People of ethnic minorities protest outside the land management office to protest against the Lithium Americans mining project. Photo: NYT. Mining companies, meanwhile, want to speed up domestic lithium production and push the government to include a $ 10 billion funding program in the infrastructure bill. “If China severs relations with us, the US will face many difficulties,” said Ben Steinberg, an official in the Obama administration, threatened. This war is inherently unfair. After all, the mining units are just capitalists. Maxine Redstar, the leader of Fort McDermitt Paiute and the Shoshone tribe. At the Fort McDermitt Indian Reserve, controversy over the project was even more acute and led to more conflicts. The Lithium Americas mine proposes to hire tribal members as workers with an average salary of $ 62,675 / year. This salary is double the per capita income in the region, but indigenous Indians will pay a huge price for the environment and nature. “After you pollute the water here, what will we drink in the next 300 years? You’re lying!” Said Deland Hinkey, a member of the indignant tribe. Mr. Tim Crowley, vice president of Lithium Americas, pledged that the company will operate responsibly with the local environment, planning to use steam from burning molten sulfur to generate electricity, for example. However, people here still do not trust and fear that mining activities will cause serious environmental consequences. “This war is inherently unfair. After all, the mining units are just big capitalist corporations,” said Maxine Redstar, leader of Fort McDermitt Paiute and the Shoshone tribe.

Kon Tum Cathedral Wooden Church was built entirely of Ca chit wood (red chili) Coming to Kon Tum Cathedral Wooden Church, visitors always feel peace and serenity. In the first few months of 2021, it had to be closed, minimizing people to visit and attend Mass because of COVID-19 translation, so far the church has reopened. Inside the Wooden Church of Kon Tum A Den, representative of the Church, said that Kon Tum Diocese is the most special in the Central Highlands because of all ethnic people. “There are nearly 12,000 parishioners, living in 10 villages, mainly Ba Na people. Most of them do farming and farming. They do not know how to do business or trade. Previously, in the church, there were open schools that taught both culture (teaching Ba Na) and career orientation. Now, since kindergarten, they can learn Vietnamese, so all children can go to outside public schools ”, said teacher A Den. According to the church representative, the Cathedral Parish prescribes that each month there is a baptism for the children on the first Monday of the month, with the number of about 30 children or more / time. In addition, Saturday afternoon and all Sunday are still served at Mass. “Due to the influence of the COVID-19 epidemic, in 2020 and the outbreak from the end of January 2021 in Gia Lai, the Orthodox Parish minimizes the admission of visitors. Particularly, after the outbreak in Gia Lai, the church closed and did not receive guests. The parish stipulates that people go to Mass with only 30 people or less, maximum 50 people on Sunday, strictly abide by the epidemic prevention measures of the Ministry of Health such as hand washing and antiseptic on arrival. gate, measuring body temperature, wearing a medical mask, sitting at a distance of 2-3m in the church “, said teacher A Den and said that at present he still reminds people to be cautious about the complicated developments of the epidemic in India. Degrees and neighboring countries. According to A Den, Kon Tum Cathedral was designed and initiated by a French priest, built in 1913, completed in 1918 and today. In the 1994 – 1996 period, the work was repaired to add two more verandah corridors. By 2013, on the 100th anniversary, the church was remodeled a bit outside. These days, the church is always open to visitors, and there are always people reminding people to wear masks, to take measures to prevent epidemics. Having to go to the church when the afternoon comes, the sunset gradually hides behind the trees of the old tomb. The old porcelain root blossoms with white flowers, and the red confetti to adorn the ancient relics, can fully feel the harmonious design of Roman architecture (France) and wooden stilt houses of the Ba Na people. Through the upheaval in May, the wooden church is still standing there, like the indomitable spirit of the people of the Central Highlands. The material for the construction of the Kon Tum Cathedral Wooden Church is very special, completely made of the best wood at that time, which was Ca chit (red chrysanthemum) – a typical wood of the Central Highlands. Through the skillful hands of artisans from Binh Dinh, Quang Nam, Quang Ngai … the work is bonded together by dream without using nails. The church is the only remaining Basilica-style wooden masterpiece in the world.

Bovbjerg cliffs in the Vestjylland UNESCO Global Geopark (Photo: UNESCO) Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, countries that did not apply for new geopark recognition, the UNESCO Global Geopark Council decided to consider this year’s candidates from Old application form (period 2017-2019). In fact, evaluations of these geopark have been carried out since before the start of the pandemic. The management boards of these parks have also submitted additional information reports as requested by the Council. The new UNESCO Global Geopark is: 1. Vestjylland Global Geopark, Denmark About a third of the Geopark’s surface area is on the mainland, with the rest comprising marine areas in the Limfjord and the North Sea. The terrestrial part of the Geopark’s icy landscape are flat plains, lagoons and lakes formed by successive ice ages, especially the most recent ice age, Main Advance, took place 23,000 to 21,000 years ago. Wind and water are continuing to affect the landscape in very conspicuous ways. Geopark includes 13 areas Naruta 2000, 5 nature reserves and wildlife and more than 90 natural geological sites. Natura 2000 is the European Union’s ecological network, which includes important bird habitats and protected habitats that are important to other wildlife species of interest to the European Union. 2. Global Geopark Saimaa, Finland Geopark takes its name from Lake Saimaa, the largest lake in Finland and the 4th largest lake in Europe. Located in southeastern Finland, south of the Vuoksi water system, the Geopark stretches about 20 to 180 meters above sea level. One-third of the park’s 6,063 km² of surface area is water, dotted with thousands of islands, and a coastline of more than 8,000 km. The rocks of Saimaa point to the area’s as far back as 1,900 million years ago when it was part of the seabed. The rocky bedrock is formed over time when the sea water recedes, mountain folds take place, the rocks crystallize into gneisses and granite. The ancient foundation was further affected by the ice age, and land accretion continues to this day. The land of this area was formed in the past 20,000 years due to erosion of ice sheets. Since then, several unique and endangered species, including seal Saimaa and salmon, have been “isolated” in the area. Impressive stone paintings on the shores of the lake show human presence from the Stone Age. The location and features of the Geopark allow visitors to observe the patterns of ice lobe formation in Finland’s Lake District.

Thuringia Inselsberg Global Geopark – Drei Gleichen, Germany Located in Thuringia, central Germany, the Geopark covers an area of ​​about 988 km² at an altitude of 250 to 900 meters above sea level. The park’s geology records more than 150 million years of Earth’s history, from the merger of the Pangea supercontinent to the dissolution of the continent during the Late Triassic. Geopark’s distinctive fossil profile has been a subject of study for over 300 years, leading to the accumulation of great geological expertise. The fossilized reef here, among the first recognized in the 19th century, is a remnant of the formation of a small island surrounded by coral reefs in the Zechstein Sea. You can explore three of the Geopark’s hundreds of natural caves. The park’s Geo & Pleasure geo-tourism trail highlights the link between soil and local geology and traditional indigenous cuisine in the low mountains and loess regions.

Grevena Global Geopark – Kozani, Greece In the North of Greece, in the Western Macedonia region (within 40-70 km of the border of Albania and North Macedonia), this geopark covers an area of ​​2,486 km², with an altitude of 380 to 3,800 meters above water level. sea. Greece’s longest river, Aliakamon, flows through Grevana – Kozani. The park’s geology includes rock formations dating back to about a billion years ago, to date records a number of tectonic plate events, including the birth of the Tethyan Ocean and the emergence of Europe. as a separate continental block. Orliakas Mountain, a reef in the midst of an ancient African-European contiguous area, inside the Geopark. Studies of these geological features have significantly contributed to the development of popular theories about the origin of tectonic plates. The geopark also houses some of the world’s most important tornado fossils, The Land of Elephants and Mammoths with the longest known tusks in the world (over 5 m).

Global Geopark Belitong, Indonesia Belitong Geopark is located about 400 km north of Jakarta, including Belitung Island and more than 200 small islands in 13,000 km² of waters. The marine area accounts for about 2/3 of the total surface area of ​​this park. Belitong is known for its spectacular Tor granite landscape, and large rock outcrops, created by weathering and erosion. The park also features a rare meteorite tektite called Satam or Billitonite, along with unique mineral deposits such as the Nam Salu primary tin mine, the richest single tin mine in the region. Southeast Asia. Located on historic maritime trade and migration routes, Belitong is home to more than 288,000 people from diverse cultures, including the Sawang Tribes. The main sources of income are agriculture, fishing and mining. (Photo: Belitong Geopark / UNESCO) 6. Aspromonte Global Geopark, Italy Located in Calabria, southern Italy, with an altitude of nearly 2,000 meters above sea level, Aspromonte Geopark is home to more than 273,000 people. The site’s exceptional geology is the result of the evolution of geodynamics and seismics that began more than 500 million years ago and are still ongoing. This geopark is located on a peninsula along the Apennine Mountains, corresponding to a piece of the Alpine range separating Spain, northwest Italy, Sardinia and Corsica. A complex of mountains, ridges and plateaus interspersed with deep valleys created by unique natural water currents, has “sculpted” the hard rocks of the foundation, leading to metamorphism to crystallize over time. and create spectacular waterfalls. The Geopark’s unique geomorphology gives visitors a stunning 360-degree view of the Strait of Messina, Mount Etna, the Aeolian Islands, Calabrian Greek territory, Locri territory and Gioia Tauro Plains.

Majella Global Geopark, Italy Located in the Center of Apennines, the Geopark has a surface area of ​​740 km² with an altitude of 130 to 2,800 meters above sea level, along with more than 60 peaks in the Majella Mountains, half of which are over 2,000 meters high, like Mount Amaro. The geopark is made up of a series of gorges, many rivers and a number of perennial lakes that are essential to wildlife. This area is made up mainly of fossilized limestone. With ruins associated with the human presence some 600,000 years ago, the Geopark has 95 geological sites, including one of the oldest archaeological sites in Europe. Most have considerable educational and tourism value. Thanks to the special landscape of high-altitude reliefs near the sea and the heterogeneity of geomorphology, the Geopark is characterized by a variety of microclimate, ecosystems and ecological niches, which has increased the level of special and valuable biodiversity.

Public mountain geology Holy Cross, Poland Located in the southeastern part of Poland, the western part of the Świętokrzyskie mountain range, the Holy Cross Mountain Geopark is 200 to 400 meters above sea level, and is home to more than 252,000 people. The Geopark located in the Trans-European Garment Region (TESZ), a major tectonic boundary between the Variscan Western Foundation, the Pre-Cambrian Eastern Foundation and the reproductive belt of Alpine structures, is the key to Learn the geological structure of Europe. More importantly, this is the only site in the TESZ where sedimentary rocks representing the sequence of all geological periods from the Cambrian to the Quaternary are raised on the surface. The geology of the park, combined with human intervention over the centuries has resulted in a rich diversity of landscapes, flora and fauna. Traces of human activity in the Geopark date back 60,000 years, including Neanderthal camps and a beautiful cave system. Many ancient quarries are testament to the importance of mineral deposits, metal ores, limestone and other natural resources to local people over time.

Representatives of Doan Yen Bai Province, Mu Cang Chai District Party Committee and Warm Towel Fund for children to grow bamboo at the “dinosaur backbone”, Phinh Ho village, Di Xu Phinh commune, Mu Cang Chai district This is an activity under the project “Green Sound” with the aim of building a model of enriching forests and creating a sustainable bamboo ecosystem; at the same time creating income for economic development. The project is implemented by Doan Yen Bai Province and the Warm Towel Fund for you in collaboration with Mu Cang Chai district. The project will be implemented from now until 2025, which is expected to plant on a total land area of ​​16.81 ha in the “dinosaur backbone” area of ​​Phinh Ho village, Di Xu Phinh commune, Mu Cang Chai district. In the immediate future, in 2021, it will be pilot planting 8,800 trees on an area of ​​more than 8 hectares; in the following years, additional planting will be made on the remaining area. In 2022, the project will deploy a cultural space, product display area, language classes to preserve local cultural values, support community tourism development and create a green ecosystem. from bamboo. Ms. Doan Thi Thanh Tam, Secretary of Doan Yen Bai Province, said that in recent years, storms and floods have seriously affected forest resources in Mu Cang Chai. The project implemented here aims to regenerate forests, protect the environment and develop the local tourism economy. Besides, the “dinosaur backbone” in Phinh Ho village is the attraction for many tourists to conquer and take check-in photos. This is one of the three “backbone of dinosaurs” with Ta Xua – Son La, Binh Lieu – Quang Ninh, many people rated the most beautiful in the North. “The project makes sense not only to the environment and local people but also to the young Yen Bai in the direction of forming youth cooperatives doing tourism economy”, Ms. Tam said. According to Ms. Tam, the bamboo source used in the project is indigenous species. Youth unionists coordinate with farmers with the guidance and advice of experts to create landscapes and ensure the growth of trees.

Contrary to the dead red maple leaf on Tran Duy Hung Street, another tree with equally beautiful beauty is growing green in Hanoi. Mr. Le Huy Cuong, an expert of the Vietnam Association for Forestry Science and Technology, said that this is the following, a native species of Vietnam. The following trees are distributed in the northern provinces such as Lao Cai, Lang Son, Cao Bang, Ha Giang. In Hanoi, this variety is widely grown in the Ngoai Giao Doan urban area, West Lake West, the area of ​​the Korean Embassy and the regulating lake of the Exchange City urban area. The posterior leaves are shaped quite like maple leaves. According to experts, to distinguish the posterior tree and the maple tree, people rely on the leaf lobes. The posterior leaves are split into 3 lobes and the maple leaf has 5-6 lobes depending on the habitat. In the northern provinces, the young leaves of the following plants are used for food. As noted by Zing on April 6, around the area of ​​the exchanging city lake, there are more than 30 trees, the Diplomatic Corps Urban Area has about 150 trees. My Huyen (in Cau Giay, Hanoi), said she and her friends came here to take pictures because they heard that there are rows of maple trees in Korea. She was surprised to learn that this is not a red maple tree, but a native variety of Vietnam. “I will definitely come back in the fall to have pictures when the leaves change color,” she said. The posterior fruit has many soft, pointed spines. The following trees all grow green, with a trunk diameter of 20-30 cm and a height of about 6-7 m. Some trees lay new branches, and the sprouts developed green. The canopy of trees is wide, creating shade for many young people to come play and rest. “The following tree is suitable for the city because of its strong root system, which is well adapted to the environment. I asked the Hanoi Greenery Park Company to multiply and concentrated this tree, especially around lakes so that people can come to take pictures, ”said Mr. Le Huy Cuong. In the photo, the lake in Exchange City is where dozens of trees are planted. In winter, the following leaves also turn yellow, as brilliant as the red maple tree in cold countries. Photo: Nam Hai – Tran Duy Hai. The following rows of trees grow green, making many people expect European colors in the heart of Hanoi.

Known as the royal flower associated with the image of the Nguyen dynasty in Hue, the cornflower every year blooms in late March and early April, creating beautiful images for visitors to visit. In ancient times, the sycamore tree was a precious tree only grown in the Imperial Citadel and the tombs of the Nguyen Dynasty kings. Maize tree was also allowed by King Minh Mang to carve the image on Nhon Dinh in Dai Noi. Cornflower color is characterized by a gentle pastel pink color. When flowering, the corn leaves all the leaves and then displays small, dense inflorescences on the branches, and the flowers are light purple. Seen from above, the cornflower tree blooms with beautiful flower beds on the ancient tile floor of the imperial city of Hue. The cornfield stems rise straight in the middle of the blue sky, attracting the attention of residents and visitors. Hue Citadel is a rare place in Vietnam that has special cornflowers with stunning flower colors. According to the book Dai Nam Thong Chi, there were two corn field trees brought from Guangdong (China), King Minh Mang planted on both sides of the corner of Can Chanh (Dai Noi). Then, because he was in love with this beautiful flower, the king sent someone who knew about plants to find a native tree. In the mountainous area of ​​Vietnam at that time, there were many species of plants with the same morphology as corn, so it took people who were really good at plants to choose native maize to plant in the Imperial City. At this time, visitors to Hue citadel will be able to see the blooming corn plants with their own eyes. Considered as one of the rare “herbaceous flowers” especially rare, the sycamore tree is being propagated by Hue Monuments Conservation Center for conservation.
