A horse can not only ride, it is also a landscape When you come to the grassland, horse riding is a must experience project. In the colorful forest, take a small train to the terminal and then walk a short distance. There is a dedicated horse riding venue. The trained horses are gentle and easy to walk. , Calmly free and easy. There are also two sturdy steeds, which run fast, providing good rides for tourists who are skilled in riding. In the forest pastures, free-range horses, alpacas and fawns graze and walk leisurely on the grass, seeming to ignore the tourists coming and going. Only when they are very close, do they retreat vigilantly or pass by. . The deer should be more vigilant, staring from a distance on the hillside to observe the surrounding movements. The lake and mountains, the mirror of the sky In the colorful forest, there are a series of lakes, Wucai Lake, Agate Lake and Tianjing Lake. Wucai Chi is located opposite the forest pasture, separated by a road and a small railway station. The Wucai Pond continues downstream to the Agate Lake. The birch forest on the lakeside adds a few white lines to the lake and mountains. The best thing to look at is the Jinghu Lake for a few days. When it first clears after the rain, the blue sky shows through the clouds in the sky, and the sunlight illuminates the woods, gradually turning into warm colors. In different seasons and under different light, the woods show different colors. This is the origin of the name of the colorful forest. Think about the scenery of this white birch and larch in autumn when the leaves are golden. What? Jungle tribe, children’s paradise In addition to watching the scenery, there are many interesting projects in the colorful forest. When you walk into the jungle tribe, there are small amusement facilities on the grass, and there are many cute shapes. The children are crawling and sliding inside, and they are having fun. Excited. The wooden plank road on the opposite mountain leads to the top of the mountain, and you can climb up to Yuntingju to overlook the forest and grassland. On the edge of the grass, there is a glass sky bridge. Walking on it, you can not only see the scenery on both sides, but also feel the excitement of walking in the air. The height of the sky bridge is similar to that of the trees next to it, so the footsteps on the treetops are vividly named. There is also a dense pine forest at the entrance of the overpass, which is a good place to take pictures. To enter the scenic spot, you can take a small sightseeing train or a walking tour. The small train has stations in the middle of the Tianjing Lake and the forest pasture. You can take the car if you don’t want to go, which is very convenient.

Several small houses form two courtyards. The display panels on the wall and the objects in the house show us the lifestyle and unique cultural customs of the Manchu ancestors. Shaman is one of the representatives of Manchu culture. It has a long history and is widely spread among the people. In recent years, there have been fewer and fewer people who understand Manchu and Manchu culture, and many things are gradually disappearing. In order to pass on the national culture, the Colorful Forest Scenic Spot is also working hard to collect a lot of relevant materials and objects, so that visitors can appreciate the natural scenery and leisure amusement while understanding the local history, folk customs and customs, and make the travel experience rich and diverse.

The vast sky, the green grass, the rolling hills, the windmill rotating in the wind, and the scenery in front of you suddenly brighten your mood. The sun gradually set, and a cloud was reflected in the sky in the distance, adding a warm tone to the picture. The close-up and long-distance scenes are good scenery whenever you take a shot. The off-road vehicle drove to the top of a hill, and the driver told us that it was a natural viewing platform. Layers of rocks on the top of the mountain, like a thick book page, record the vicissitudes of geological changes. Moving on, a viewing platform was set up on the hillside, where you can overlook the colorful forest scenic spot, Tianjing Lake and Agate Lake are like two transparent jade inlaid between the green forest grassland. In the afterglow of the setting sun, we took pictures on the hillside and took pictures of the moment of jumping. After a downhill road to the mountain valley, the sky gradually dimmed, the car lights were turned on, and the driving track was pulled out. The clouds on the sky road cross-country have aroused the emotions of the friends, and the trip in the colorful forest is not dark. Time is over. Roast whole lamb at the campfire, get up Back to the hotel at the entrance of the scenic spot, the small square was already lively, and the smell of barbecue drifted by before I felt hungry.

Summer is like a fair old man, giving the southern children the blue sea and the northern children the vast grassland. For the people around Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Chengde is the heart of the hot summer. The Bashang grassland here is high in the south and low in the north. The topography is complex and changeable. At the same time, it has two temperaments of forest and grassland, including wind and grass. The boundlessness of low-spot cattle and sheep, there are also low and undulating hillsides and large forests dotted between them. The Colorful Forest of Shenxian Valley is located in Datan Town, Fengning, Bashang Grassland. The entire scenic area is very large, and there is no shortage of grasslands. The forests are scattered, the lakes are level like a mirror, and the flowers and plants in it are full of vitality in summer. The beautiful scenery is the bottom line, and the 20,000 acres of scenic spots have done enough homework-the cultural park that focuses on Manchu culture, the forest pastures that children like, the romantic and beautiful birch forest, the night light show and the bonfire. A few days of vacation in it, really happy like a fairy . Fengning Manchu Autonomous County is an area inhabited by Manchus, and the Manchu folklore exhibition is indispensable in the scenic area. Inside the building with Manchu characteristics, the origin, development, and changes of this minority are introduced in detail, and they vividly show their daily life and customs such as food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Regarding the Manchus, the media or TV dramas conveyed more about the lifestyles and customs of the aristocratic class, while the folklore exhibition in the colorful forest showed the ordinary lives of ordinary people. The walls of Manchu dwellings reproduced in the original state are covered with newspapers. The stocky tables and chairs are simple and clumsy, and are mainly practical. What appears in front of people is the most plain living place. The lifelike model takes people into a somewhat ancient and mysterious world of Manchu culture. Here is the evolution of the Manchu culture from the initial fishing and hunting culture to the later agricultural farming and animal husbandry. There are displays of the production and life tools used by the people at that time. Many scenes and tools are rarely seen by modern people. Guarding the iceberg, guarding the cold years, and hunting all the year round makes the Manchu costumes have distinct characteristics that are very different from the Han nationality. On the basis of keeping warm, the clothes they wear generally reflect a simple and convenient style, which is more conducive to quick action. Perhaps it is because of the name “Colorful Forest”. The colors in the scenic area are extremely rich. Needless to say, the colors brought by nature. The artificial landscapes are also carefully crafted and matched, especially the cute and colorful trains. A rainbow appeared in the sky after the rain, and the small train was driving on the road, and the reflection in the water after the rain was even more eye-catching. Children who have lived in the city for a long time and have been tortured by learning come here. In addition to the beauty and magnificence of nature, the recreational facilities will surely make them exclaim. “Forest Ranch” is especially suitable for families with children. Walk along the smooth and gentle wooden plank road all the way to the lively animal kingdom. Here is an animal paradise deep in the forest, with little horses, lambs, little yaks, deer, and beautiful and proud peacocks. In the garden, they enjoy themselves, eating green grass, enjoying themselves. There are many places suitable for parent-child research in the colorful forest. Small wooden houses, cartoon-shaped slides, big stone pine cones…breaking into the forest and pasture, as if you have entered a fairy tale, the sun on the grassland is particularly bright, and the laughter of the children is also particularly joyous. Overlooking the colorful forest from a high altitude, you can feel the changeable appearance of the entire scenic spot. The grasslands, forests, lakes, and hills have a panoramic view, and the forest occupies most of the field of vision, which gives people a sense of coolness visually. What’s even better is that no matter which season comes, the trees, flowers and grass in the forest will have different shapes and colors. The four sceneries of the four seasons make people look forward to each time they arrive. Many children also like to ride horses here, riding slowly in the jungle, the scenery along the way is endless, the mountain path shining by the sun is filled with a special smell, mixed with the fragrance of the grass and trees crushed by the wind . The winding road shuttles between the grassland and the forest, and the eye-catching green has a jumping color and change. The trees are straight and strong, giving people infinite vitality. Riding on such a road, I am afraid that my eyes are reluctant to blink, for fear that I will miss a bit of beautiful scenery. There are grasslands, forests, and even more rare is the tranquil Tianjing Lake. This lake water is like a girl’s tears, condensed with tenderness and affection, which makes people feel that only the blue sky and the green underground are intertwined. The breeze blows gently, ripples on the lake surface, the tranquility and leisure of life. It’s touching. Standing on the transparent glass trestle bridge, the whole body is delivered to nature. The fresh air and pleasant beauty make the negative energy in the heart disappear without a trace, and have the power of full blood resurrection. In the colorful forest, besides Tianjing Lake, there are Wucai Pond and Agate Lake. These beautiful lakes are inlaid on the grassland. Seen from a high place, they look like gems of different colors, crystal clear and beautiful, revealing unpredictable tranquility. Take the small train in the scenic spot and pass through the jungle, the typical “dam on the dam” landscape is slowly unfolding in front of your eyes-on the low and undulating hillside, the forest stretches with the curve of the mountain, the forest is not continuous, and the middle is sparsely inlaid with grass Dian, the long plank road has been stretched to the distance, and the end seems to be connected to a mysterious place. The weather on the dam is changeable. In the “Colorful Forest”, I encounter a rainbow after the rain. The tall white windmill is like a lonely giant standing on the top of the mountain. All elements add to the dreamy color of the foreground image, as if it was done in childhood. Dreams about fairy tales and adventures have become reality here. There is also a “Road to the Sky” in the Colorful Forest, which is 30 kilometers long. On Yunshangtian Road, you can also overlook the entire colorful forest scenic spot, riding an off-road vehicle all the way, circling up from the foot of the Daqing Mountain, extending to the top of the mountain surrounded by white clouds, as if to the nearest place to the sky. Here, the blue sky meets it, and the white clouds echo it. Walking on the sky is like walking in the clouds. The most unmissable delicacy for people who come to Bashang is roasted whole lamb. The water plants on the Bashang are beautiful and the lamb is of high quality. The lamb skewers are turned over and cooked on a large iron braze. The roasted whole lamb was served. Immerse yourself in the embrace of the colorful forest, feast your eyes on the beautiful scenery, and feast your eyes on delicious food. Isn’t that the perfect holiday?

Close to the limit of insolvency According to the director of Sao Viet car company, production and business revenue is almost zero, but every day still has to bear countless expenses such as bank interest; rent for factories, warehouses, salaries to support officials, employees, drivers; road maintenance fees … A series of passenger transport enterprises are in the “swallowing” scene. “Before the epidemic, on average, each month we spent about 3 billion dong on salaries and bonuses for drivers and employees. However, today, even though there is no revenue, we still have to “burden” nearly 1 billion dong/month “- Mr. Bang stated. Not only road transport, the air transport market has suffered the most severe decline ever, prompting the Ministry of Planning and Investment to issue a warning that the solvency of enterprises is declining close to the limit of insolvency. maths. For example, the national airline of Vietnam (Vietnam Airlines), it is expected that the loss of the first quarter of 2021 will be at VND 4,800 billion and in the first six months of the year may reach VND 10,000 billion. Currently, the amount of overdue debt has reached VND 6,240 billion and is in a very difficult situation. Vietnam Airlines has more than 9,000 employees who are on unpaid leave and temporary suspension of labor contracts. Most transport businesses are facing great difficulties due to the Covid-19 epidemic Vietnam Railways Corporation (VNR) also lost 50% of passenger transport revenue in the past 5 months due to people restricting travel, the railway industry had to cut many passenger trains. Mr. Nguyen Cong Hung, Chairman of the Hanoi Taxi Association, said that the number of passengers decreased by 80%-90%, revenue fell seriously, and workers’ lives were difficult. A series of taxi companies are facing the risk of bankruptcy, and bad debts are at high risk of increasing in the banking system. Therefore, recently, the Taxi Associations of Hanoi, Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City have jointly signed a document to send to the Prime Minister, proposing to support taxi transport enterprises to overcome difficulties before the Covid-19 pandemic. Proposing many solutions Facing the above situation, the Prime Minister has just assigned the Ministry of Transport to consider and propose policies and solutions to support passenger transport enterprises facing difficulties due to the Covid-19 epidemic. to border gates and between regions in the domestic market. According to Mr. Tran Bao Ngoc, Director of the Transport Department (Ministry of Transport), since the outbreak of the epidemic, the Ministry of Transport has proposed policies and solutions to support transport enterprises in difficulty. Regarding the solution to remove the vehicle inspection cycle, Mr. Ngoc said that the Ministry of Transport is amending Circular No. 70/2015 in the direction of adjusting the inspection cycle of passenger cars of all kinds up to 9 seats with transportation business. , adjusted from 18 months to 24 months for the first cycle and from 6 to 12 months for the recurring cycle. In addition, the Ministry of Transport also proposed that the Government delay the time of sanctioning transport enterprises that do not install surveillance cameras due to the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic. Regarding the proposal to exempt road maintenance fees until the end of this year, Mr. Ngoc said that in order to remove difficulties for those affected by the Covid-19 epidemic, Circular 112/2020 of the Ministry of Finance allows to reduce collect road user fees from January 1 to June 30, 2021. “The Ministry of Transport has proposed to the Government to reduce value-added tax to 0%, reduce 50% of corporate income tax for industries seriously damaged by the epidemic.

For example, to be exempted under the regulations of the Ministry of Finance, the vehicle must stop working for 30 days or more, then return the badge and be certified by the Department of Transport. “You can stop for less than 30 days to be able to run again, then you have to apply for a new badge.

These days, the road surface temperature is very high, especially on roads without perennial trees such as Nguyen Chi Thanh, Truong Chinh, Trang Tien streets… the temperature always fluctuates from 40 – 50 degrees Celsius. In order to escape the “burning” heat, many passers-by have chosen the route to go through some streets with shady trees. Walking under these ancient tree-lined streets, it is possible to find some fresh and cool air in a series of horrible suffocating days. The line of beautiful, straight black star trees on Lo Duc Street brings a feeling of closeness to nature and shade for the whole neighborhood on hot summer days. Ly Dao Thanh Street has two rows of old trees that always give shade to the road surface. Phan Dinh Phung Street has rows of ancient green crocodiles. Summer comes, the whole street is immersed in a cool space under thick foliage, making it difficult for the midday sun to penetrate. The temperature recorded at noon time on streets with many old trees was much lower than the temperature measured at the same time on roads without trees. The shady tree line helps pedestrians to somewhat reduce the “burning skin” heat. People with bare heads, walk on Phan Dinh Phung street at noon without fear of the sun. The shade of green trees on Tran Phu street not only creates a beautiful landscape but also becomes a “shield” on hot Hanoi days. The green canopy blocks the sun, helps to regulate the air, and combats the stuffiness of harsh summer weather.

The Ministry of Transport said. For the proposal to have appropriate policies and mechanisms for BOT investors to reduce road use fees according to Circular No. 112/2020 of the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Transport said Circular No. 112/2020. of the Ministry of Finance stipulating the rate of road use fee (toll collected per vehicle) for automobiles doing transport business of transport enterprises, transport business cooperatives, and transport business households. “The collection of road service fees is not specified in Circular No. 112/2020, so investors do not have to follow the guidance of this Circular,” the leader of the Ministry of Transport affirmed. .

Lao Bao international border gate. The People’s Committee of Quang Tri province has just submitted a report No. 73/TTr – People’s Committee to the Prime Minister on the assignment of competent State agencies to deploy the Cam Lo – Lao Bao expressway in the form of PPP. Specifically, the People’s Committee of Quang Tri province proposed the Prime Minister to consider and assign this locality to be a competent state agency to implement the Cam Lo – Lao Bao expressway project as prescribed in Clause 3, Article 5, Law on Investment in the form of public-private partnership (PPP Law) and organize the preparation of the project pre-feasibility study report according to the provisions of Clause 1, Article 13 of the PPP Law. Cam Lo – Lao Bao expressway has a length of about 70km, according to highway standards with 4 lanes, roadbed width of 17m, total investment is expected to be 7,700 billion, of which state capital comes from the bank. the central budget according to preliminary calculations of less than 50% of the total investment; payback period 19 years. According to the People’s Committee of Quang Tri province, currently the national vertical traffic axes such as National Highway 1 have completed investment in upgrading with a scale of 4 lanes. The expressway system strives to have about 5,000km of the whole country put into operation by 2030, of which the East North-South expressway will be completed by 2025. However, the fact that the whole country still does not have an expressway connecting the East – West direction has caused an imbalance in investment to promote the advantages of geographical location in order to effectively exploit the sources of goods. complement each other. In Quang Tri province, there is only National Highway 9 with a length of 83 km connecting Dong Ha city and Lao Bao international border gate. The route was upgraded in 2006, the size of the road is grade III, 2 lanes. In recent years, the volume of vehicles participating in traffic on National Highway 9 has increased, especially container trucks transporting goods to Laos and vice versa.

On the other hand, the National Highway 9 route from Cam Lo up to Lao Bao international border gate is the only and only route connecting Dong Ha city center with mountainous districts of Dakrong, Huong Hoa and 2 international border gates. Lao Bao, La Lay. When natural disasters, storms and floods occur, especially in the rainy and flood season in 2020, National Highway 9 passing through Dakrong district and Huong Hoa district suffers from landslides and landslides; Many bridges and culverts were flooded, causing division, isolation, and traffic jams in the entire western region of Quang Tri province. Therefore, the People’s Committee of Quang Tri province believes that it is very urgent to study and invest in the construction and completion of the Cam Lo – Lao Bao expressway in the period 2026 – 2030; meet the demand for transportation of import and export goods and goods in transit; connecting national vertical axes with international border gates and regional seaports; especially breaking the monopolistic position of National Highway 9 to serve the rescue and rescue in the event of natural disasters, storms and floods, and to perform the task of ensuring national defense and security.

Alliance against China G7 countries decide on global infrastructure plan

Status: 13.06.2021 6:38 p.m.

At the initiative of US President Joe Biden, the G7 countries agreed on a billion-dollar infrastructure initiative for the emerging countries. It should be an alternative to China’s “New Silk Road”. From Notker Blechner, tagesschau.de It sounds like a kind of “Marshall Plan” for the poorer countries of the world: At the G7 summit in Carbis Bay, the leading western industrialized countries have an infrastructure project entitled “Build Back Better World” (in German: a better world rebuild) decided. Hundreds of billions of dollars are to be invested by the G7 countries in cooperation with the private sector.

The US is the driving force behind the initiative

The project was promoted by US President Joe Biden. It is reminiscent of the billion dollar infrastructure plan adopted in the USA, which Biden promoted under the slogan “Build Back Better”. The aim is to offer poorer countries “transparent high-quality partnerships”, announced Biden at the end of the summit. The global infrastructure project of the G7 states is supposed to be an alternative to the “New Silk Road” with which China is promoting infrastructure projects from Asia to Europe. The People’s Republic has agreed “Belt and Road” projects with around 100 countries, including the construction of new train routes, ports and roads. According to the business information service Refinitiv, around 2,600 projects with a volume of 3.7 trillion dollars have already been launched. Critics accuse Beijing of driving poor countries into a debt trap and into political dependency. With the “Silk Road”, China is pursuing the goal of expanding its geopolitical influence worldwide. A US official called the new G7 alliance against China’s Silk Road a positive alternative vision that “shows our values, our standards and our way of doing business”. It is not about “the countries have to choose between us and China”.

Transparent alternative to the “New Silk Road”?

Chancellor Angela Merkel gave a less ideological justification for the infrastructure plan of the G7 countries. “We have to deal with the fact that China is running quite successfully infrastructure projects,” she admitted. “We can’t just stand by and watch.” The G7 group must show “that we are an important and successful factor in development work in the world”. She emphasized that the project was “not against something, but for something”, namely the expansion of the infrastructure, especially in Africa. The German economy has been demanding for some time that Europe react to China’s “New Silk Road” with its own infrastructure strategy. “If we want to regain spheres of influence in developing countries, it is not enough to criticize China. We have to make better deals,” said Friedolin Strack, head of the International Markets department in the Federation of German Industries (BDI), to the “Handelsblatt”. German companies usually go away empty-handed when it comes to the Silk Road projects.

Trillions of dollars are needed

According to Biden, there is a global need of 40 trillion dollars for the expansion and modernization of the infrastructure. He didn’t give any details. In a preparatory paper for the G7 summit it was said that 1.5 to 2.7 trillion dollars of additional money would be necessary every year for the developing and emerging countries to achieve the sustainable development goals of the United Nations. In fact, many countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America lack modern roads, train lines, bridges and ports, as well as facilities for water supply, sewage and waste treatment. In the opinion of the G7 group, the World Bank and other international financial institutions have proven to be too clumsy when it comes to infrastructure projects. This is why national development banks in particular, such as the German Reconstruction Loan Corporation (KfW) or the US International Development Finance Corporation, are now to develop and implement projects.

Concrete projects only in 2022

It will take a few more months for the G7 countries’ global infrastructure plan to take shape. The first concrete projects are not expected to appear until next year. The new G7 task force for infrastructure projects in developing countries is to make specific proposals in 2022. “I hope that we can present such projects at the next G7 summit,” said Chancellor Merkel. Germany will take over the G7 presidency in 2022.

Criticism of China’s economic project Headwind on the “New Silk Road”

Status: 06/11/2021 12:58 p.m.

China is expanding its influence worldwide, and the “New Silk Road” is intended to further strengthen the country. But the criticism of the project is growing. At the G7 meeting, the Australian head of government wants to report on his experiences. From Steffen Wurzel, ARD studio Shanghai Ding Laisong from the customs authority of the Chinese port city of Ningbo was satisfied at the beginning of the week: Trade with the states of the so-called “New Silk Road” had increased by 30 percent, he said on the Chinese state television broadcaster CCTV. In the case of trade with the particularly committed Silk Road countries in Central and East Asia, the plus is even 50 percent.

Sri Lanka regrets cooperation

China’s state and party leadership continues to sell its controversial strategy and trade project “New Silk Road” within the People’s Republic as a great success. In numerous partner countries, however, the initial enthusiasm for the project has given way to sober insight. China’s state and party leadership has nothing to give away with the Silk Road. On the contrary: in many cases, the Silk Road partner countries have borrowed considerably – with Chinese state banks. This sometimes creates considerable dependencies. One example is the Hambantota port project in Sri Lanka. According to media reports, the expensive Silk Road port project has hardly brought the island state anything economically. Sri Lanka’s Foreign Minister Dinesh Gunawardena now openly speaks of a mistake in leasing the port on the southern tip of the country to China for 99 years.

One billion euros in debt for Montenegro

In Europe, too, it is now becoming clear what the Silk Road critics have been calling a debt trap for years: the Balkan state of Montenegro, for example, had borrowed around one billion euros in China for the construction of a nearly 180-kilometer-long motorway. The autobahn is far from finished. But now the repayment is due – and the EU accession candidate lacks the money. The mood has also changed in large industrialized countries: In Italy, Prime Minister Mario Draghi put the Silk Road cooperation with China on hold, and the government in Canberra has also completed two projects in Australia. Only smaller, more symbolic projects were affected, but China’s communist leadership reacted angrily. She described Australia’s decision as “unreasonable and provocative”.

Australia accuses China of “extortionate behavior”

It is becoming clear that the communist leadership sees itself increasingly on the defensive in the Silk Road project, officially known as “Yi Dai Yi Lu”. Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison complained at an economic conference in Perth “blackmailing behavior” by states like China. “Where compulsive acts have no consequences, there is little incentive to restrain,” said Morrison. Australia’s prime minister called for the sanctioning mechanisms of the World Trade Organization to be strengthened. Because if blackmailing behavior has no consequences, there is no reason for the corresponding states to hold back.

The G7 summit in Cornwall The heads of state and government of the seven leading industrialized countries (G7) will meet from June 11th to 13th in Cornwall, southwest England. For the first time in two years, they will meet again in person in the afternoon. In addition to climate change, the conference will also focus on trade issues and investments as well as the fight against the corona pandemic. In addition, the meeting will focus on the positioning towards Russia and China.
The G7 group includes the USA, Germany, Great Britain, Canada, France, Italy and Japan. Like-minded democratic states such as South Korea, South Africa, Australia and India are invited to the summit as guests. After the government in Canberra demanded a complete clarification of the origin of the Covid 19 pandemic around a year ago, Australia was de facto covered with an economic war by China’s leadership. The Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison wants to share this experience with the G7 countries. He will be a guest at the summit in England.

Many tourists have a Tibetan dream, because the high altitude makes some people unable to go and adds a sense of mystery.

There are many routes to Tibet. In addition to flying directly to Lhasa, Nyingchi and other cities, you can also take the Qinghai-Tibet line, Dian-Tibet line and Sichuan-Tibet line.

I have heard several friends say that tickets for Tibet are expensive. Is this really the case?

Frankly speaking, with the exception of Nyingchi Suosong Village, the Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon and other scenic spots, the ticket prices are slightly higher. Tickets for most other places are very cheap. Even in the tourist season, the ticket for Gala Peach Blossom Village is only 30 yuan, but Most of the beautiful attractions along the route are free of charge.

Our car went from Lhasa to Shigatse. The destination was Mount Everest Base Camp. It passed a place called Manla Reservoir along the way. It was about 4,200 meters above sea level. There were almost no plants on the mountain. The lake was under the brown-gray mountain and the lake was pink-green. It is like a beautiful emerald inlaid on a plateau, pure and intoxicating beauty.

Manla Reservoir has a viewing platform, located on a high mountain, next to it is a toilet. Some self-driving travelers choose to park here and enjoy the scenery by the way, and so do we.

Manla Reservoir is located at the upper reaches of Nianchu River in Longma Township, Gyangze County. It mainly provides irrigation water for nearby areas and uses hydroelectric power to deliver electricity to nearby residents.

This reservoir is about 28 kilometers away from Gyangze County and 113 kilometers away from downtown Shigatse. The dam has a length of 287 meters and a height of 76.3 meters. It is called the “First Dam in Tibet.”

The reputation of Manla Reservoir in the tourist circle is very small, but the tourists who pass by here are all impressed, especially when the weather is clear, the blue sky and white clouds reflect the lonely mountains and green water, majestic, atmospheric and beautiful, and it will rise when the wind is strong. Prayer flags from the top of the hill.

It takes less than five minutes to climb a flight of steps from the parking position to the viewing platform. However, because the altitude is more than 4000 meters above sea level, you will feel a little pant if you walk fast, and it feels much better to slow down.

In terms of practical significance, Manla Reservoir is a natural landscape + artificially constructed landscape belt. Although there are many similar mountains in Tibet, their appearances are different. If you have to compare a place with the Manla Reservoir, I personally think that the Yamdrok Yumso has the highest similarity, but in terms of the degree of danger and sense of desolation, the Manla Reservoir seems more obvious.

The beauty of Tibet is not only in the destination, but also along the way. Whether it is the Yunnan-Tibet line, the Qinghai-Tibet line, or the Sichuan-Tibet line, there are many places as beautiful as Manla Reservoir that do not charge tickets. The premise is that you can slowly discover and appreciate it if you are not in a hurry.

Question 3: How to play on the first day of Beijing North Road?

●Play Method 1: Experience the fun of driving

The First Day Road in North Beijing is a good place for self-driving and off-road. Although most of the road sections have been hardened, some of the original earth and stone roads are still retained. These sections have certain requirements for driving skills and vehicle chassis height. Even the hardened road surface, the width of the road and the slope of the road are still a challenge for novices. Life is not a smooth road. Why should self-driving pursue accessibility everywhere? Isn’t this the fun of self-driving?

●Play Method 2: Watch the sunset from the top of Dongshan

The top of Dongshan in the Liushugou savanna is the dividing point between the upper dam and the lower dam. It is also a good place to watch the sunset, if you encounter a rare good weather.

●Play method 3: See the sandy spruce in “China’s Most Beautiful Forest”

The reason why Qiansongba National Forest Park was named “China’s Most Beautiful Forest” is that there are nearly 2,000 acres of spruce forests on sandy land that are more than 100 years old. In many people’s perceptions, sand spruce only grows in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. This is a fallacy. Watching sand spruce and enjoying the coolness of summer, you don’t have to go far away. On the first day in the north of Beijing, you can satisfy all of you. Fantasy of sandy spruce.

The rarity of sand spruce is that this plant only grows on sandy land above 1,000 meters above sea level. They are light-loving, shade-tolerant, cold-tolerant, drought-tolerant, and barren-tolerant. They are rare tree species that prevent sand and stabilize soil. Coincidentally, Qiansongba National Forest Park fits this geographical feature, and it is no longer unusual for sandy spruce to grow here.

●Play four: the original ecology of eighteen flowers

The eighteen flower sea, eighteen does not refer to the type of flower, nor is it a curious title, but refers to the original ecology here. There are no artificially planted flowers and plants here. It is a back garden left to people by nature. A wooden plank road leads to the depths of the sea of ​​flowers. On both sides of the wooden plank road, there are vast grasslands and green trees.

Research conducted in conjunction with the Technology and Public Purpose Project at the Harvard Kennedy School’s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, found that 53% of drivers surveyed felt less safe while riding. share the road with self-driving pickup trucks, and 47% feel less safe sharing the road with other self-driving vehicles. The AAA notes that 38 states and the District of Columbia have pilot projects testing self-driving cars. In California and Nevada particularly, this project is actively lobbied for. In fact, only 35% of survey respondents know that some states allow testing of self-driving cars on public roads. Additionally, 34% of those surveyed said they support self-driving pilot programs while 36% are against. Self-driving car test project is applied in many places in the US Of those opposed to the program, 77% said they were concerned about the safety of sharing the road with self-driving cars while 62% worried about who would be responsible for collisions with self-driving cars. . More than half also believe that the public needs to know the safest way to be on the road with self-driving test vehicles. The study also revealed that this problem could be overcome if self-driving test vehicles were easier to identify. In fact, 62% said they would feel safer if such vehicles were clearly marked. Meanwhile, 60% said they want a dedicated lane for self-driving cars. The AAA also recognizes that regulators should establish signs to make such vehicles easier to identify. Solutions have been put in place for self-driving cars to “integrate” into public transport

Traveling to the land of sunshine and wind, some people choose to stay at luxurious sea view resorts, fully enjoying high-class services. Meanwhile, many young people like backpacking, discovering the beauty of the sea in their own way. During the last holiday, blogger Mavis Vi Vu Ky (Nguyen Khanh Hoang Anh) traveled with her best friend around the most beautiful beaches in Central Vietnam. On the third day of the trip, the two received information that the epidemic was at risk of resurgence. 9X and close friends ensure a safe journey with full epidemic prevention measures. It helps the “foot-crazy” association to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery along the journey that other forms of tourism do not have.

The accident happened at night, when a driver did not see Schwartz appear on the highway. The impact was so strong that Schwartz’s tracking collar broke, resulting in a loss of signal. An anteater collapsed on the highway. Photo: Guardian. According to the researchers, the beast trudged off the highway until it collapsed dead. But they could not find the body of this animal. Schwartz is just one of thousands of wild animals that are stabbed to death each year on the BR-262 highway in Brazil, according to reports. Guardian . The route was built in the 1960s, when safety regulations were not established. BR-262 also cuts through the habitat of many wildlife species, leading to many serious impacts on the environment. Now, activists have joined a class-action lawsuit, forcing Brazilian authorities to recognize how dangerous the highway is. Highway of death BR-262 stretches east-west, passing through the states of Espírito Santo, Minas Gerais, São Paulo and Mato Grosso do Sul. The route also cuts through the Atlantic forest, the Cerrado savanna and the Pantanal wetlands. The deadliest stretch of road stretches for nearly 300 kilometers, running through the cities of Aquidauana and Corumbá, lined with trucks and metal mining vehicles. According to research from the University of Mato Grosso do Sul, every year more than 3,000 wild animals are stabbed to death on this stretch of road. An anteater collapsed on the highway. Photo: Guardian. In 2020, the Pantanal region experienced a severe drought. Biologist Gustavo Figueirôa explains: “When the river level is low, mining companies have to transport by road.” Drought has also caused fires to increase, forcing many species to leave their habitats. When they suddenly cross the highway, drivers easily lose visibility and cause a collision. Environmental and infrastructure agencies are working together to improve old roads like the BR-262. Their goal is to minimize their impact on the natural environment. But this task is not easy, especially when many large animals often appear on the highway. According to biologist Fernanda Abra, some sections of the road of BR-262 have been fenced, but this measure has not worked. “The fence is very low,” Ms. Abra said. Animals can break, climb or jump over.” Class action lawsuit Fernanda Abra, co-founder of environmental consulting firm ViaFauna, began tracking animal stabbings on the BR-262 in 2018. That’s when Abra learned of the class action lawsuit against the Department of Facilities. National Transportation Infrastructure (DNIT). The lawsuit, initiated by many activists, asks the DNIT to come up with more effective measures to protect wildlife in the area. According to the Federal Prosecutor’s Office in Mato Grosso do Sul, DNIT has taken measures such as installing speedometers or installing signs. But these efforts have not resulted in improvement. The Prosecutor’s Office said DNIT is prioritizing the installation of fences and safe passages specifically for animals. Luiz Guilherme Rodrigues de Mello, head of DNIT, said the ministry understands the problems with the BR-262 motorway. But the class action is a wake-up call, forcing them to turn their thoughts into actions. “Fortunately, the Prosecutor’s Office helped us realize a critical situation. And we need to look at how we can do better,” said Luiz Guilherme Rodrigues de Mello. After the lawsuit, DNIT signed a contract with ViaFauna to monitor the highway for one year. Co-founder Fernanda Abra said ViaFauna will release a report in December 2021 or January 2022. In particular, the company offers many specific measures for the problem of stabbing animals to death on the BR-262 highway. An anteater in its natural habitat. Photo: Guardian. Ms. Abra and many experts want people to understand that collisions can be dangerous to both wildlife and people. In addition, these accidents also cause significant damage to infrastructure. According to a study by Ms. Abra, each year the state of São Paulo records about 3,000 collisions caused by wildlife. These incidents killed 22 people and cost about 10.6 million USD to the state budget. Another study, also conducted by Ms. Abra and the Highway Project, concluded the average cost per wildlife collision is around $885. The team believes that finding a solution will prevent the number of accidents and reduce the cost of damage. Crocodiles roam the streets after the blockade order in the US After the blockade order in the US, many streets were deserted, only a few wild animals roamed.

The floor tile with the special logo is one of the logos of “Red Classic Trail” which is basically completed in Huangpu district. This road will focus on the site of the 1st Congress of the Communist Party of China, 7.1 km long, including 13 roads with 14 consecutive points.

Shanghai’s road administration agency cooperates with the tourism industry to implement,” said Mr. Vuong Duy Phuong – Planning and Technology Department of the Shanghai Road Traffic Administration. This custom brick is one of the logos of the basically finished “Red Classic Trail” in Huangpu district. (Photo: Baidu) And to chain the points into a line, the choice of the path must be appropriate. For example, moderate length, walking time between touchpoints about 15 minutes. In addition, it is necessary to meet the needs of tourists when looking for “food, housing, tourism, shopping and entertainment” addresses, or choose a street with many functions and interfaces. . “Red culture” and “Shanghai style culture” intertwine and blend; connecting important public transport hubs,… Must choose roads with high green coverage and good landscape along the route. The project was first tested in Huangpu district. Relevant departments and branches in the urban area systematically studied tourism resources in the area, selecting 13 commercial streets, historical landscapes, cultural experiences, out of a total of 14 scenic spots. scenic.

In addition, the classic red trail guide map will be placed at subway entrances, advertising light boxes, bus stop advertising light boxes, road junctions, and masonry walls. Everyone sees it as a guide. However, their accuracy is not appreciated. “Because of the long-term factor, don’t let these signs become ‘complicated’ for the street, but coordinate with the urban landscape of Shanghai and the surrounding utilities to make it suitable,” said Mr. people said. Guide map around the Classic Red Trail in Huangpu District -Shanghai (Image: Baidu) As required in minimizing the city’s street facilities. Ensure the principle on the basis that the road must be clearly and accurately indicated, the road logo should be placed on one side and the signs must be combined with the facilities located in the green belt. “The classic red trail in the Huangpu district is the first step in Shanghai’s experiment. Next, we plan to build more walking routes in the urban area around the sites of the Second and Fourth Congresses of the Communist Party of China.” Mr. Vuong Duy Phuong believes that each district can combine its own characteristics and explore more. For example, for tourists’ varying length of visit needs, offer a mix of one-day tours, half-day tours, one-hour tours, etc. travel preferences of tourists, offering routes focused on consumption, commercial shopping or offering tours and walking, humanistic route-oriented experiences meet the need to delve into the block and find read city history, architecture of tourists. As street elements that will be preserved for a long time, do not let these signs become “complicated” objects for the street. (Photo: Baidu) Today, Shanghai is conducting slow traffic planning and construction, and the red trail is one of them. The person involved in charge of the Municipal Road Traffic Bureau said that they will explore more similarly themed trail constructions around the “Guide to the Good Management of Urban Roads in Shanghai”. In addition, a “Slow Traffic Design and Planning Guide” has been drafted and will be published soon to guide the planning and construction of slow traffic in different districts and promote traffic improvement. slow./.

Ngang Pass is located on the Hoanh Son mountain range – a mountain range running from the Truong Son range in the west to the East Sea. Through the ups and downs of history, today Ngang pass is the boundary between Ha Tinh province (in the North, in Ky Nam commune, Ky Anh town) and Quang Binh province (in the south, in Quang Dong commune, Quang Trach district). . Ngang Pass has a length of 6km, a height of 256m above sea level, winding and dangerous slopes, very difficult to go. The Ngang Pass through the Hoanh Son range was built in 992, under the direction of a pre-Le dynasty mandarin. During the Trinh – Nguyen period, the conflict between Dang Ngoai – Dang Trong (1570 – 1786), Gianh River in Quang Binh was the boundary dividing South – North, but the important key point of Trinh’s army on the north bank was Ngang Pass. . After Nguyen Anh ascended the throne, established the Nguyen Dynasty and built the capital at Phu Xuan (Hue) Ngang Pass with the Hoanh Son range is still an important defensive point in the North. In the 14th year of Minh Mang (1833), the king ordered the construction of Hoanh Son Quan on the top of Ngang pass. In the year of Mau Tuat (1838), the king ordered 9 large bronze peaks (nine peaks) to be cast in the Citadel (Hue), the image of Hoanh Son – Ngang Pass was selected to be engraved in “Huong Dinh”. During the anti-American resistance war, Ngang Pass was the place to witness many heroic and resilient battles of the young volunteer forces and the engineer soldiers to stay day and night to keep the blood vessels smooth. Despite its heroic history, Ngang Pass is still considered the most romantic and poetic pass in Vietnam, the inspiration of many poets. Le Thanh Tong, Ngo Thi Nham, Nguyen Du, King Thieu Tri, Nguyen Ham Ninh, Ms. Thanh Quan district, Cao Ba Quat … have saved marks at Ngang pass with great works of ancient poetry. Today, there is a tunnel through the pass, nearly 500m long, built modern and solid with 6 lanes of traffic, but many people still keep the habit of going through the pass to enjoy the spaciousness of the tree. heaven and earth, to feel the clear sounds from nature full of poetry.

Illustration. https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn In a statement released alongside a major new report, the Paris-based organization said achieving the net zero emissions target “Net Zero” would require an “unprecedented transformation”. about how energy is produced, transported and used globally”. In a clear indication of the amount of work that needs to be done, the IEA report said existing commitments fell “far below what is needed to achieve net-zero global emissions by”. year 2050″. According to the IEA’s roadmap to achieve Net Zero by 2050, more than 400 “milestones” will need to be crossed. These include phasing out new fossil fuel sales by 2025 and ending sales of internal combustion engine cars by 2035. In addition, there should be no “investment in new fossil fuel supply projects, and no further final investment decisions for new coal plants”. Preliminary figures from the US Energy Information Administration show that: The share of natural gas and coal in utility-scale power generation in 2020 is 40.3% and 19.3%, respectively. . According to the IEA scenario, solar and wind photovoltaic will become the leading source of electricity for the planet before the end of the decade, accounting for nearly 70% of electricity production by 2050. According to the IEA’s roadmap, solar energy will become “the largest source of total energy on the planet” by the middle of this century. In contrast, fossil fuels will see their market share “fall from almost four-fifths of total energy supply today to more than one-fifth.” Employment in the clean energy sector will increase by 14 million people in the period to 2030, while the role in the oil and gas and coal sectors will decrease by about 5 million people. “Our roadmap shows the priority actions needed today to ensure that the opportunity for net zero emissions by 2050 is narrow but still attainable,” said Fatih Birol, CEO. of the IEA, said in a statement. “The scale and speed of the efforts required by this important and formidable goal, our best chance of tackling climate change and limiting global warming to 1.5 °C makes this perhaps the biggest challenge humanity has ever faced,” added Birol. Cutting anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions to Net zero by 2050 is considered critical once the 1.5°C target is reached. Later this year, the COP26 summit will take place in the Scottish city of Glasgow. This is seen as a hugely important event, with many hoping it will act as a catalyst for governments to step up their climate ambitions to achieve the goals set out in the Paris Agreement. . The reality shows how challenging the IEA’s roadmap is. As energy companies are still discovering new oil fields, while in countries like the United States fossil fuels continue to play an important role in electricity generation. https://tinhtexaydung.petrotimes.vn

According to Professor, Dr. Pham Quang Minh, former Rector of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Vietnam National University, Hanoi, this is a very complete, comprehensive and profound article on the Party’s views. Communist Vietnam for the basic and most important contents of the Vietnamese revolution since the country was peaceful, independent and unified until now. That is the problem of building socialism and the path to socialism of the Vietnamese nation. In the article, the General Secretary posed the most crucial and decisive questions of the Vietnamese nation today, such as: What is socialism? Why did Vietnam choose the socialist path? How and how to gradually build socialism in Vietnam? According to Professor, Dr. Pham Quang Minh, the meaning of the article must be recognized, evaluated and considered in the current practical context, associated with three important factors. Firstly, the article was published on the eve of the election of deputies to the XV National Assembly and People’s Councils at all levels for the 2021-2026 term, that is, before an event of great significance, on the 23rd of this month. In May 2021, voters nationwide go to elect their representatives to the country’s highest authority. The General Secretary wants to remind everyone that it is not anyone else but the voters, who must raise their sense of responsibility and wisely choose talented and virtuous people to be elected to the National Assembly. Because this is the agency that makes important decisions about the path we have walked, the achievements we have achieved and will be the place to solve difficulties and challenges in the future. Secondly, the article was born in the context that our country celebrates the 131st birthday of President Ho Chi Minh, the founder of the State of Vietnam, the leader and teacher of the Vietnamese revolution. We review, look back on what we have done and the way to go. Thirdly, this is also an opportunity for the General Secretary to clarify his views and clearly define Vietnam’s position on the issue of socialism in Vietnam, in order to criticize wrong views, smear and distort the Vietnamese government. hostile forces in order to lower the Party’s prestige, sow distrust and shake people’s faith in the nation’s path to socialism. Sharing about the content of the article, Professor, Dr. Pham Quang Minh emphasized that the article has analyzed and clarified 5 new important points. First of all, the General Secretary affirmed that the achievements of capitalism are undeniable and that these are the achievements and common progress of mankind and therefore we need to be selectively absorbed. This is very important, because from time to time, there are also some people who think that everything that belongs to feudalism, capitalism, and the old regime is evil, wrong and comes to a clean denial. That is a conservative view, heavily colored with ideological confrontation, clearly distinguishing between us and the enemy, friend and enemy, what is good for us, and what is in the enemy’s is also bad. We recognize that capitalism has never been as global as it is today and has also achieved many great achievements, especially in the field of emancipation and development of productive power. science and technology development.” Second, when talking about socialism, the General Secretary mentioned three aspects, three connotations, and three qualities of socialism. It is socialism as a doctrine, a movement and a regime. Such a view of socialism is very scientific, multidimensional and comprehensive. Because, if one sees socialism only as a movement, it is easy to fluctuate because of the “up or down” of that movement. If we only look at socialism as a doctrine, it is easy to see that it is “sclerotic, dogmatic, backward”. And if you look at it as a regime, I am afraid that the reality in the Soviet Union and Eastern European countries makes it easy to doubt. Third, we often say that Vietnam went to socialism, ignoring the capitalist development stage, but in this article, the General Secretary pointed out, ignoring the capitalist development stage. that is, only ignoring the limitations of capitalism such as oppression, injustice, exploitation, and vices, but not ignoring the achievements of civilized values ​​that mankind has achieved in the period of capitalist development. capitalism and selective inheritance. We need to be wise, sober and selectively inherit the achievements and values ​​of civilization that humanity has achieved such as technology, economics, medicine, etc. Fourthly, Professor, Dr. Pham Quang Minh also said that, in the article, building socialism according to the General Secretary is creating a new type of society in terms of quality, which is unlike any other model. any picture in the world. Or the socialist-oriented market economy is a theoretical breakthrough. Those things are typical of Vietnam, only of Vietnam. Professor, Dr. Pham Quang Minh said: “This is the biggest challenge for Vietnam because if it has to build a completely new type of society that has not been found in the world, it will be extremely difficult and challenging, because Because we can’t learn from the experience of those who went before, we have to be the ones to pave the way to “exploit the mountain and break the stone”. But we can do it, because just like in the period of the American Resistance War, many countries are afraid of the US, don’t dare and don’t know how to fight the US? But we have researched, pondered, studied and made the determination that we can defeat the US and have defeated the US.” Finally, highly appreciate the conclusion of the General Secretary in the article: “We need to absorb and selectively supplement in the spirit of criticism and creativity the latest achievements in ideology and science to Our doctrines and doctrines are always fresh, always invigorated, carrying the breath of the times, not falling into stagnation, stagnation, and backwardness compared to life”, Professor, Tien Doctor Pham Quang Minh said that the General Secretary had clearly expressed his views on the importance of learning together with practice, theory must be closely linked with practice, learning critically, creatively, absolutely. not being dogmatic, machines lead to intellectual sclerosis and backwardness. More than ever, we must always raise the spirit of learning, absorbing creatively in a critical spirit, only then will we be “invigorated with new vitality”. According to Professor, Dr. Pham Quang Minh, this also shows that the General Secretary, through the article, wants to remind us that Vietnam’s science does not seem to have updated and absorbed the latest achievements. about the world’s ideology and science, have not yet applied these achievements creatively to the practice of building socialism in Vietnam. Going up to socialism associated with the path of sustainable development phát Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Chu Hoi, Standing Vice Chairman of the Vietnam Fisheries Association, said that as a 40-year-old Party member, he feels proud of the Party, firmly believes in the driver, and The Central Committee of the Party leads the country firmly on the path of building socialism, successfully realizing the “Vietnamese aspiration” as pointed out by the Resolution of the 13th National Party Congress. Agreeing with the General Secretary’s comments on global challenges related to inadequately resolving the relationship between development and the environment: “Along with the economic-financial crisis is the energy and wage crisis. In fact, the depletion of natural resources, the degradation of the ecological environment, etc. are posing enormous challenges for the existence and development of mankind”, Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Chu Hoi emphasized, the consequences of the non-environmental approach, development at all costs, does not consider the environment and resources as a mandatory factor to consider when choosing development and consumption methods. has left “the consequences of a process of socio-economic development taking profit as the ultimate goal, considering the possession of wealth and increasing material consumption as a measure of civilization, taking personal interests as a pillar of society”, as the General Secretary wrote. Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Chu Hoi said that, in the article, under the lens of analyzing theory, practice and lessons learned on dealing with the relationship between socio-economic development and environmental protection. environment, conservation of resources and cultural values ​​on a global scale clearly shows that the path to socialism is also associated with the path of sustainable development of the country in terms of economy, politics and society. society, culture and environment. It is the right choice, has strategic stature, ensures long-term economic efficiency, the country has “food and property”. From the perspective of his experience in the field of marine management, the Standing Vice Chairman of the Vietnam Fisheries Association shared that in order to realize the great ideas of the General Secretary, it is necessary to review the Land Law; develop a new law on the use of the sea to develop a green and sustainable marine economy, contributing to firmly protecting Vietnam’s rights and interests in the East Sea. In addition, it is very urgent to strengthen conservation activities in the sea, coastal areas and islands of our country, including both terrestrial and underground landscapes. All-encompassing and groundbreaking is the issue of human resources, in which people are affirmed as both the goal and the driving force to promote and maintain the country’s sustainable development. to the level of success of the process of implementing “Vietnam aspiration”. Therefore, in this article, the General Secretary has identified and oriented: “People hold a central position in the development strategy; cultural development, human development is both the goal and the driving force of the renovation; development of education – training and science – technology is the leading national policy; environmental protection is one of the vital issues, a criterion for sustainable development; Building a happy family, making progress as a healthy and solid cell of the society, realizing gender equality is the criterion of progress and civilization. In particular, these are not only priority tasks in innovation and creativity of the country on the road to building socialism, but also demonstrate the superiority of socialism that our Party steadfastly chooses. and do it patiently.

In Japan, people use the term “hikyō-eki” to refer to remote stations. The term became popular in the 1990s. At that time, Takanobu Ushiyama, a writer with a great love for railways, wrote about stories on his train. From there, a movement to remote train stations also began. Photo: Flickr. According to Atlas Obscura, Koboro Station in Toyoura, Hokkaido is the most famous spot on the list of “hikyō-eki”. It fits in the 100 m long space between the two tunnels. Photo: 1geso1. The three corners of the station are steep cliffs with dense forest trees. The other corner faces Uchiura Bay. If you want to go to the beach, you will have to follow a very bad road because it is not repaired. This station can only be reached by train or boat. Photo: 1geso1. Koboro Station has been open since 1943 – the time of the Pacific War. It was used as a signal station for steam locomotives transporting bombs and ammunition. It was not until 1987 that Koboro became an ordinary railway station. In an earlier period, the station was abandoned. Photo: Yoshiro.dagane. Currently, the station welcomes about 5 guests/day, most of them are train enthusiasts or local fishermen. Around 1960, the area around Koboro station also had a resort, camping by the sea. However, all of this gradually drifted into oblivion, leaving Koboro secluded in the mountains. Photo: Alex Bloom. In 2015, Koboro Station was almost closed. However, the town of Toyoura has funded the maintenance of the station to turn it into a tourist attraction. Photo: Dajamann. According to Atlas Obscura, the Hokkaidu railway company (which owns Koboro station) has not promised to maintain this station. Even so, at least the promotion for Koboro has been quite successful.

With a length of 69 km, the North Yungas road connecting La Paz to Coroico in Bolivia is also known as the Grove road. However, many people know this place with the world-famous “death road” nickname. North Yungas “death road” was built in the 1930s. Whenever moving through this road, drivers always have to “stress their brains”, be very careful because the road is quite zigzag, with many dangerous turns. On one side of North Yungas Road is a cliff, a gentle hillside. The other side is a deep, barrierless abyss. In addition, the weather here often has heavy rain, which can cause landslides, slippery road surface, dense fog that obstructs visibility… These things put vehicles traveling through the North Yungas road at risk of accidents. According to one statistic, every year about 200-300 people die on the “road of death” North Yungas. Therefore, to ensure safety, drivers are recommended to move at a moderate speed to be able to handle unexpected situations. Although the North Yungas road is extremely dangerous, some adventurous cyclists come here for an exciting experience. To limit and prevent accidents on North Yungas Road, Bolivian authorities built a new route from La Paz to Coroico. Thanks to the new road, the number of accidents on North Yungas Road has decreased significantly. Invite readers to watch the video: Fall in love with the red maple leaf road in Hanoi.

The Ministry of Transport said that in order to complete this coastal route, Phu Yen province needs to actively balance the budget, in case of difficulties, it should report to the Government for consideration and support in the medium-term public investment plan (2021-2025). ). The completion of the road will create a beautiful road, connecting with many national monuments and landscapes, which is the driving force to attract investors to large coastal projects of Phu Yen province. From this coastal road, visitors can see the beautiful Bai Mon at the foot of Dien Cape If counted from the South to the North, this road will run through the National Historic Site of Tau No Number, bringing visitors to Vung Ro to enjoy fresh seafood here. This road will continue to take visitors to Bai Mon for scuba diving, to Mui Dien to watch the sunrise. That road will take visitors through Tuy Hoa city with fields on one side and the sea on the other to Bai Xep of Tuy An district (an attractive destination for tourists through the movie “I see yellow flowers on green grass”). . Not far to the north is the national scenic spot Hon Yen – where visitors do not need to wade into the water can still touch each piece of beautiful coral flowers floating on the sea surface at low tide. Continuing to move to the North, less than 10 km, that road will pass through the national landscape of O Loan lagoon famous for greasy milk oysters, blood scallops and Ganh Da Dia, which has just been recognized as a heritage site. special national scenic spots. Out of the territory of Tuy An district, the road will take visitors to the national landscape of Xuan Dai bay – where Phu Yen province is calling for investment to build into one of eight key national tourist areas and will come to you. a series of beautiful beaches, from Bai Nom to Bai Bau, Bai Rang… to Quy Nhon city (Binh Dinh province). Many projects have been licensed to invest by Phu Yen province along the sea, but not many projects have been started construction and put into operation. Among the many reasons given by investors, there is a reason to wait for a road through the coast of Phu Yen province connecting the two provinces of Khanh Hoa and Binh Dinh.

Lilac flowers are typical of the tropics. In Hanoi, the color of mausoleum flowers is a sign that summer is coming. In the early days of May, mausoleum blooms in many corners of the capital streets. The deep purple color of the lily-of-the-valley flowers combine with the green of the grass, creating a harmonious beauty of the colors. In Hanoi, there are streets like Kim Ma, West Lake, Dao Tan, Van Phu… planted with many mausoleum trees, in the summer the flowers bloom purple all the way. Langur flower also has many different colors: purple, pink, off-white, but perhaps the most familiar to Hanoians is purple. Purple color of mausoleum in Dao Tan street. The mausoleum trees by the West Lake welcome the sun. The solitary mausoleum tree on Dao Tan street has its own beauty. Purple flowers are reminded of fidelity, so mausoleum flowers are often associated with thorny love stories. An accidental combination in the season of lily flowers on the street. The whole road is nearly 2 km long, ring road 3.5 in Ha Dong area, purple flowers bloom on two sidewalks. The trees are planted thickly, the trees are small, but the flowers are in full bloom.

Ta Gu waterfall is located in Son Hiep commune, Khanh Son mountainous district (Khanh Hoa). From Cam Ranh city, turn along Provincial Road 9, go on the romantic Khanh Son pass about 40km to To Hap town. There is no signpost indicating where Ta Gu waterfall is, other than asking locals. Sometimes seeing you lost your way, people stop and say: “Are you going to Ta Gu waterfall? Let’s go this way.” I have met such enthusiastic people, so that once I can leave my footprints on this mysterious waterfall. From Hung Vuong street go forever, turn many times, go on a small dirt road, go up high, down low … finally to the waterfall. On holidays, there is only one person to keep the car, but normally, you just lock the car there and start conquering. On the way, you can stop at Apa Buoi bridge to see the unique stream flowing backwards to the West, feeling like water flowing from low to high. Ta Gu Waterfall was formerly known as Ivory Waterfall, later named Ta Gu because its water flows into the stream of the same name. The story associated with the waterfall is told by the old people here, then handed down. It was from the time when heaven and earth were in harmony, there was a stream with flowers blooming in four seasons and blue water. The fairies in the sky fly down to bathe in the stream, then go to the top of the mountain to dry their long hair. In it, there is the Ut fairy, because she was busy playing, the door of heaven was closed, and she turned into a waterfall on earth. The high mountain that the waterfall flows down like an ivory has a beautiful name: Mount Chalo. In fact, Ta Gu waterfall has been known for only a few years now, when many young people keep riding motorbikes and go out to explore. From then on, the discoveries to the waterfall kept increasing. It is undeniable that going to Ta Gu waterfall is a real adventure. The way down below is a dangerous one. The cliff collapsed, the tree roots protruded, the adventurer kept clinging to the tree’s roots, looking for the protruding mounds of earth to climb down to the waterfall. In fact, when I got there, I only saw rocks covered, and the water was flowing downhill. But you have to go to the end, so you jump on the cliffs to cross to the other side of the stream. The rocks here are very slippery, so many people in the front have deliberately dropped large bamboo branches for the following people to cling to. The simpler way is to just roll up your pants and wade through the water, because the highest place the water level is about 0.8m. After crossing the bank, go along the forest path opened by the previous person. The road is small, about 0.4m wide, very difficult to go, sometimes going up, sometimes going down, sometimes you have to cling to the roots of trees to climb. Finally to the cliff. The most difficult thing is to climb down the cliff at a height of 5m to conquer Ta Gu waterfall. There are many people who give up, just sitting on the rocks from afar and watching. Touching Ta Gu waterfall will feel different from any waterfall you have been to. The clear white water flows without noise, pouring into a lake about 200m2 wide. Next to the lake is a cliff about 6m high. There are many primeval forest trees here, many flat rocks to rest, sit there and watch the waterfall. In particular, there are many holly trees on the side of large trees. Currently, Ta Gu waterfall still has no services, but the attraction of the unspoiled waterfall has made more and more footsteps come. https://dulich.petrotimes.vn/

Pavi stone road was started construction in 1920 and inaugurated in 1927 with pebbles and large rocks lined up from the hands of the villagers at the foot of Nhìu Co San mountain. The construction of this road is done entirely by hand by indigenous peoples. The total length of the road is about 80 km, which is a road connecting the two provinces of Lai Chau and Lao Cai to transport cardamom, minerals and other goods. The path through primeval forests, cardamom forest and soaring mountains in the Northwest, the road is beautiful and not too steep, wagons can walk. The French also built an airport on a large plateau near Nhiu Co San village to gather and transport goods. Pavi ancient stone road. The ancient stone road has been likened to the lifeline of traffic and is named after the French Congregation Pavie. This is a road crossing the magnificent Nhìu Co San mountain (Horn Trau mountain) to connect Sang Ma Sao commune, Bat Xat district (Lao Cai) with Sin Suoi Ho commune of Phong Tho district (Lai Chau). To form this road, nearly 50,000 Hmong and Dao people sweated and their lives for 5 years to complete 80km of stone trails. With the development of modern roads connecting the two provinces of Lao Cai – Lai Chau through O Quy Ho pass, the road is gradually forgotten and left in the middle of the deep forest, but about 30 km of rocky roads still exist until today. now on. However, only about 17km remains almost intact after 100 years. The stone path is like sleeping in the middle of a great forest, with many historical and cultural sediments. On the way to explore, we catch a village of the people, passing through primeval forests or poetic bamboo forests or waterfalls like fairyland … The ancient stone road Pavi always has a special attraction for adventurous tourists. Exploring this trail is usually those who love climbing, trekking and jogging. To conquer the ancient stone road Pavi, visitors will begin trekking from the village of Sàng Ma Pho, through the relatively unspoiled forest where the road is most preserved. There are still traces of the graves of those who participated in the road construction on the roadside. The moss-covered rocky path, zigzagging through the forest will eventually bring the trekker foot to the old French airport at the foot of Nhiu Co San mountain, which is also the end of this heritage journey. Conquering Pavi Road is quite leisurely, but there are many beautiful experiences with views from above to the terraced fields of ethnic minorities, feeling the power of people on the mossy stone road in the enigmatic forest. and watch the family of Nhìu Co San mountain standing in the clouds. Previously, in 2019, the People’s Committee of Bat Xat district (Lao Cai) and the People’s Committee of Phong Tho district (Lai Chau) conducted surveys to connect and develop tourism for this route. After this field survey, the ancient stone road Pavi has really promoted the tourism potential of two communes and two districts, as well as preserved the cultural and historical values ​​of the ancient stone road Pavi. In particular, connectivity in tourism development promotes socio-economic development, hunger eradication and poverty reduction for local people. The exploitation of tourism on this road has contributed to creating an attractive new tourist destination, diversifying tourism products, attracting more capital to invest in tourism, and at the same time being an opportunity for the units. Tourism business to meet, exchange, expand cooperation, create quality tourism products to serve tourists. Surely this place will be an impossible place for those who love nature, love to explore. If you want to try the feeling once in your life going back to the past, you can choose a 2 day 3 night itinerary to go with the ancient stone road Pavi.

This small square actually stuck the throat of countless cutting-edge industries in our country and became the Achilles heel of the technology giants. In 2021, 36Kr will launch a series of industry observations on the “Xin Journey” series. This series will conduct a comprehensive in-depth study on the upstream and downstream of the semiconductor industry, including manufacturing giants, equipment suppliers, material suppliers, and chip design companies that continue to break through the limits of Moore’s Law. We hope that our content can provide some reference and reference for the Chinese industry that is plagued by “core shortage”. TSMC was deified. Against the background of trade frictions and global core shortages, this Taiwanese foundry has suddenly become the focus of the world. Its every move has been deconstructed and re-read, and it has become a popular quotation-style truth. This article will invite TSMC to the altar to restore the three important battles on the road of TSMC’s “Fengshen”, and restore how it overcomes difficulties step by step. After thousands of day and night struggles, it will finally come to today. 1. Brothers fight against the wall for twenty years TSMC’s first enemy is UMC, one of its compatriots. UMC and TSMC were also born in the “Taiwan Institute of Industrial Technology”. Since its establishment in 1995, until around 2010, UMC has remained firmly on the throne of the world’s second largest semiconductor foundry company, and launched three stunning blitzkriegs against TSMC in 1997, 1999, and 2001. . Zhang Zhongmou in his youth TSMC founder Zhang Zhongmou is 16 years older than UMC founder Cao Xingcheng. Zhang Zhongmou has been studying at Harvard and MIT since he was a teenager. After joining Texas Instruments, he has been soaring all the way. He has not only reached the top position of Texas Instruments’ global third-ranking position within 25 years, but also has a close relationship with Jack Kilby and Andrew Grew. The semi-conductor god-level figures like Andrew Grove have very close personal relations, and they are always happy, talking and laughing. In 1976, the Industrial Technology Research Institute sent staff to RCA in the United States to study semiconductor technology. Cao Xingcheng (first from left). Source: Industrial Technology Research Institute In contrast, Cao Xingcheng is a native Taiwanese man. When he was studying in Taipei in his early years, Cao Xingcheng also lived in a tin hut with tricycle drivers due to family constraints, and watched the world. After graduation, Cao Xingcheng became a civil servant, and then transferred to the newly established “Taiwan Industrial Research Institute Electronics Department”, and in 1976 was given the opportunity of the Industrial Technology Research Institute to study semiconductor technology in the United States. After returning to Taiwan, China coincided with the establishment of the first semiconductor factory in Taiwan by the Industrial Technology Research Institute, Lianhua Electronics, Cao Xingcheng volunteered to become the first deputy general manager of Lianhua Electronics, and was promoted to general manager within two years due to his outstanding achievements. The difference in growth experience gave the two completely different personalities. Zhang Zhongmou is serious and calm, and prefers management talents with a background of studying abroad. Taiwan media commented on him as “drinking red wine, smoking cigar, and being a gentleman.” And Cao Xingcheng acted eclectic, loyal, courageous, and extremely good at using financial leverage to kill and annex, quite a bit of a chaotic world. The two have been married for a long time, but they have also been grudges for a long time. Who would say that TSMC was “the first company in history to propose a foundry model”, Cao Xingcheng was the first to oppose it. In 1984, the 37-year-old Cao Xingcheng issued a plan for “Expanding UMC” to Zhang Zhongmou, who was in the United States, which not only elaborated on the upcoming new era of integration in the semiconductor industry, but also It is the first time to put forward the concept of “foundry”. However, Zhang Zhongmou did not reply to Cao Xingcheng. In the following year, Zhang Zhongmou was invited by Sun Yunv, “Jiang Jingguo’s successor”, to leave the United States and came to the “Taiwan Industrial Technology Research Institute” as the dean, becoming Cao Xingcheng’s immediate boss. And what surprised Cao Xingcheng was, In the third year, Zhang Zhongmou unexpectedly announced the founding of TSMC, the “first foundry in history”, without mentioning Cao Xingcheng’s plan. The Very Large Scale Integrated Circuit (VLSI) plant of the Industrial Technology Research Institute leased by TSMC in 1987. Source: Industrial Technology Research Institute Cao Xingcheng’s anger can be imagined. However, at this time, Zhang Zhongmou was not only the dean of the Industrial Technology Research Institute and the chairman of TSMC, but also the chairman of UMC and the direct leader of Cao Xingcheng. Cao Xingcheng has nowhere to complain. In 1991, after Cao Xingcheng finally joined other directors in a letter to remove Zhang Zhongmou’s chairmanship, Cao Xingcheng directly criticized Zhang Zhongmou’s “plagiarism” and “misappropriation” in public, but he never received a response from TSMC or Zhang Zhongmou. In an interview, Cao Xingcheng even said angrily: “ At the beginning, the government probably trusted people with white hair, so it was handed over to Mr. Zhang, whose hair was whiter than me, to execute. . ” Established in 1980, UMC is the earliest IDM manufacturer in Taiwan, China, with both hands on chip design and manufacturing. In July 1995, UMC announced the divestiture of all semiconductor design businesses to focus on foundry manufacturing. Since then, the well-known MediaTek in the industry was spun off from UMC that year. ( The peak of history was slashed by market value, and the iron-blooded manager turned the tide, and it made crazy in the 5G era | ) Cao Xingcheng’s vicious judgment on the development of the industry can be seen as early as more than ten years ago. This person is easy to read history, happy and elegant, and is best at playing Go. His commercial methods seem to be a big deal, but in fact, he calculates accurately and does everything step by step. In 1995, the United States regained the world’s first throne in semiconductors, and South Korea rose against the trend. Although Japan was particularly defeated, the global semiconductor industry entered a new cycle of tight production capacity. It is the best time for UMC to announce its full venture into foundry. In order to compete with TSMC, which has been running for eight years, Cao Xingcheng immediately thought of a differentiated strategy that is deeply tied to customers. From July to September, Cao Xingcheng united 11 IC design companies from the United States and Canada. Under the huge capital operation of up to 3 billion US dollars, the three major foundries of Liancheng, Lianrui, and Lianjia were established. , Suddenly became a tendency to lean on the corner. This kind of group style of big investment, big territory, and interest binding has since become UMC’s fist style. In the following two years, UMC continued to make moves, mergers and acquisitions, shareholdings, factories, going to sea, and digging for customers. They were pressing everywhere, and it was almost out of breath to catch up with TSMC. According to media reports, in June 1997, TSMC announced that it would spend NT$400 billion to expand its production capacity, and UMC immediately announced an additional NT$500 billion to invest. In August, UMC’s 8-inch wafer foundry, Lianrui, was officially put into operation. The next month’s production capacity rushed to 30,000 wafers. The prospects were so good that the general manager of UMC Xuan Mingzhi was interviewed by Taiwanese media in early October. Confidently announced to reporters-“UMC will kill TSMC within two years!” However, just a few days later, in a two-and-a-half-hour-long fire, the brand-new Lianrui factory was equipped with tens of billions of equipment and tens of thousands of crystals that were still being processed on the production line. Round, all torch. It is said that the fire was caused by the accidental construction of UMC’s contractors. At that time, the entire Hsinchu Park was covered with black smoke clouds, and the fire tongue burned the walls of the brand-new factory building. According to statistics after the event, this sudden fire caused UMC to directly lose tens of billions of NT dollars, and orders of more than 2 billion yuan could not be executed. What’s more serious is that UMC therefore missed the excellent market of semiconductor global recovery, and the loss was immeasurable. Success requires strength, contacts, and even a little bit of luck. The sky does not follow people’s wishes, but Cao Xingcheng wants to change his fate against the sky. Beginning in 1998, UMC started a new round of mergers and acquisitions. During this period, UMC successively acquired a 15% stake in Hetai Semiconductor and jointly invested US$3.6 billion with Infineon to build a new plant in Singapore. In 1999, Cao Xingcheng relied on his superb capital operation ability and amazing negotiation skills, and at an ultra-low price of 400 million New Taiwan dollars, the 16 billion assets of Japan’s Nippon Steel Semiconductor Company were acquired, which shocked the entire semiconductor industry. In the same year, Cao Xingcheng announced again that UMC would merge with its four UMC Tigers (Liancheng, Unirui, Unitech, and Hetai) to form the “UMMC Group”. The combined UMC not only occupied more than 40 global foundries in one fell swoop. % Of the market share, its output value directly rushed to the world’s third, second only to Intel and TSMC. In addition to the two-pronged approach of production capacity and scale, UMC has also made rapid progress in technology. Historically, it was the first manufacturer to introduce a copper process to produce wafers, the first to produce 12-inch wafers, and the first 65nm chip. The technology gap with TSMC has been shortening, approaching the world’s number one. In the two blitz battles in 1997 and 1999, UMC lost one and the other lost. Time came to 2001. With China’s accession to the WTO, 9.6 million square kilometers of market space opened up, and massive semiconductor demand flooded into the market. Cao Xingcheng, with a keen sense of smell, immediately realized that this was the overtaking opportunity that UMC had been waiting for for many years. “ The battlefield to compete with TSMC is none other than Mainland China. “Cao Xingcheng said excitedly. However, at this time, the Taiwan authorities have been strictly controlling local chip manufacturers to invest in the mainland on the grounds of avoiding the outflow of advanced technology and job opportunities. In order to grab this piece of fat that was delivered to the mouth, in April 2002, UMC bypassed the Taiwan authorities and quickly reached a cooperation with Shanghai Belling and announced a joint investment in the construction of an 8-inch wafer fab in Zhangjiang, Shanghai. In November, UMC cleverly used the curve investment method to form a joint venture with Wuxi Shanghua Semiconductor to build an 8-inch wafer fab “Hejian Technology” with a $1 billion investment. However, in the second year, TSMC obtained the qualification to invest and build factories in the mainland approved by the Taiwan authorities, but UMC’s approval was delayed. The above-mentioned cooperation can only be carried out in the form of “under-the-table cooperation”. If all goes well, UMC will fight with TSMC in their last life and death battle on mainland China. But just like the factory fire that caught off guard in 1997, fate once again made a little joke on Cao Xingcheng. In 2004, the result of the election of the leader of China’s Taiwan region was announced, and Chen Shuibian took office. For many years, Cao Xingcheng has always advocated that the mainland and Taiwan should coexist peacefully. In this election, it is natural to oppose Chen Shui-bian’s various measures. Cao Xingcheng has an outspoken personality and has always spoken boldly in public. He did not comment in the unexpected world, and naturally he did not take this matter to heart. Who would have thought that on February 15, 2005, on the afternoon of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the “Taiwan Inspection Department” suddenly dispatched more than 120 celebrities and horses to conduct a lightning surprise inspection of the residences and offices of several UMC executives , And stated that UMC is suspected of providing illegal support to China Hejian Technology. Since then, the protracted and sensational “Heship Case” on both sides of the mainland has officially kicked off. Cao Xingcheng was interviewed by the media after the outbreak of the “Hejian case”, source: CRNTT After UMC was searched by the authorities, Cao Xingcheng issued open letters to employees and the media several times. His words became sharper and sharper. He pointed out that the search was a misguided action by the public power. He even named the National Taiwan Jiaotong University where the prosecutor Chen Ronglin was studying. The Science and Law Institute is sponsored by its competitor TSMC. For more than a year after that, UMC was procrastinated again and again by this case, and fined again and again. Cao Xingcheng’s refusal to accept defeat only resulted in greater suppression by public power agencies. The Taiwan authorities deliberately established the “Heship Case” as a typical case of restricting cross-strait economic and trade cooperation, and continued to harass UMC up and down. In December 2005, UMC’s stock price plunged, and the company was clouded and misty. On December 29, 2005, just two days before the new year, Cao Xingcheng finally surrendered. In order to preserve the UMC, for which he has devoted 20 years of hard work, Cao Xingcheng announced in an open letter that he would resign as chairman and director and cut all ties with UMC. One year later, the Hsinchu District Court in Taiwan ruled that the prosecutors against UMC did not find out the situation in detail, nor did it have a professional unit appraisal. The court could not adopt evidence as evidence, UMC was not guilty, and Cao Xingcheng was not guilty. However, after this battle, UMC completely lost its position to compete with TSMC for the global leader. In 2018, it announced that it would abandon the investment in advanced processes below 12nm and focus on mature markets. From 1995 to 2005, UMC and TSMC have been fighting for 20 years and launched a blitzkrieg three times, but every time UMC is about to catch up with TSMC, it will always be blocked by other factors. This is not good luck, but it is also because UMC has natural shortcomings in the fields of standardization and internationalization. Compared with UMC, TSMC’s management is much more “foreign”, and most of them not only have doctoral degrees from overseas universities, but also There is no shortage of executives from international chip giants. Since then, Cao Xingcheng devoted himself to art collection, and never dealt with commercial affairs. Cao Xingcheng concentrated on art collection in his later years, regardless of commercial sources. Picture: Wuzhen Cultural Lecture Hall At the time of the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008, Cao Xingcheng also auctioned off his collection of Qianlong pen holders and donated money to the earthquake-stricken areas in Sichuan. 2. Sluggish and bloated, “big company disease” budding In 2005, his old rival Cao Xingcheng retired, and Zhang Zhongmou, who was much older than him, had already planned to retire. At this time, TSMC’s second enemy quietly appeared. However, this enemy does not come from the outside, but from the growing volume of TSMC itself. As UMC was caught in the quagmire of the lawsuit, seeing that the general situation was over, in May of the same year, 74-year-old Zhang Zhongmou officially resigned from the CEO position and handed TSMC to the “prince” Cai Lixing, who was personally trained by him. He retired and went home to serve flowers. Make tea and spend your retirement leisurely. Cai Lixing, source: TSMC Cai Lixing is relieved. This Cornell University materials engineering postdoctoral fellow joined the company when TSMC was established only two years ago. He led the creation of the first 8-inch factory in TSMC’s history. He was a great minister of TSMC’s early expansion of territory and Zhang Zhongmou’s confidant love. will. Although a full 20 years younger than Zhang Zhongmou, Cai Lixing and Zhang Zhongmou not only have similar experiences, but also have similar personalities and growth environments. Cai Lixing was born in a bureaucratic family. His father Cai Tong_ was the chairman of the “Taiwan Stock Exchange”, while Zhang Zhongmou’s father was the Finance Director of Yin County, Ningbo City, and his mother was a descendant of Xu Shidong, a famous book collector in Qing Dynasty in Ningbo. In addition to school and work experience, the two are most similar to each other in character and behavior. Zhang Zhongmou acts rigorously, has a strong style, and requires perfection in everything; Cai Lixing is even more “iron-blooded and strong.” In the industry, he runs the factory as a leader. Once the goal is set, the mission will be achieved without obstacles. Since defeating UMC and winning a beautiful technology battle on the 0.13 micron copper process, TSMC has gradually embarked on the fast lane of development. At this time, Zhang Zhongmou thought that he could safely hand over power to Cai Lixing, so he retreated to the second line. However, within two years of his birthday, the flames of war once again burned to his door. As TSMC has invested more and more in technology research and development, how to maintain profit margins while still attracting customers has become TSMC’s most troublesome thing. The situation in the harvest year is acceptable, but once the disaster year comes, the pressure on TSMC will suddenly increase. In 2007, the subprime mortgage crisis swept the world, and the semiconductor industry was not immune. In the context of the global financial tightening, TSMC has had to cut prices year after year and its gross profit margin has fallen all the way to get an order in the hands of customers whose wallets are getting tighter and tighter. In order to further reduce costs and increase gross profit, under the auspices of CEO Cai Lixing, TSMC has not only suspended the procurement of advanced 40nm technology and equipment, but also adopted extremely aggressive layoff measures-the bottom 5% of the employees in the performance ranking were directly dismissed and not retained. Any leeway. At the same time, when the market gradually recovered and the foundry capacity began to appear short, TSMC increased prices in response to “persuade” many old customers. According to Taiwanese media reports, at that time a major TSMC US customer stated that he could not accept the decision to increase prices and began to cultivate the second and third foundry suppliers to prevent another single supplier from being stuck in the future. Neck, and had to accept the price increase. All this, Zhang Zhongmou saw in his eyes and anxious in his heart. Today’s TSMC has grown from a small fab with less than a few hundred people to a behemoth with more than 20,000 employees and businesses all over the world. The flow of personnel, project management, and technology inheritance have all become problems on the road to development. In April 2009, Zhang Zhongmou, who has been decentralized for a long time, rarely appeared at TSMC’s annual business conference. He criticized harshly throughout the entire process, even saying “Tighten your skin! If this goes on, TSMC will die.” All the executives were silent. As the situation continued to ferment, in June of that year, Zhang Zhongmou stepped in strongly, not only publicly announcing the re-hiring of all laid-off employees, but also personally removing Cai Lixing’s CEO title, entering the “cold palace” and changing to the general manager of the new business organization. Zhang Zhongmou announced the removal of Cai Lixing’s CEO position. Picture source: Business Weekly 78-year-old Zhang Zhongmou re-emerged and once again carried the banner of TSMC. After the return, the first thing Zhang Zhongmou did was to declare that the previous layoffs were invalid. TSMC’s door will be opened for all employees who wish to return. And not only is it not layoffs, TSMC will also increase its personnel R&D investment, spending $1 billion in R&D funding, and there is only one condition, “spend it out as soon as possible”-you know, TSMC’s total revenue in 2009 was only 90. One hundred million U.S. dollars. Technology upgrades, customers return, and people’s hearts are united again. In particular, the Gate-Last technology that TSMC has invested heavily in research and development has overwhelmed its competitors and has become a key node for the company to dominate the industry in the 28nm process. Zhang Zhongmou’s return has strangled TSMC’s “big company disease” in its infancy. Cai Lixing is not incapable-a few years later, he will airborne the position of co-CEO to save another Taiwanese chip manufacturer from the brink of life and death, and he has achieved great success. It’s just that Zhang Zhongmou’s “Day 1” “We are only 30 days away from bankruptcy” and the sense of urgency that first-generation entrepreneurs like Zhang Zhongmou have, as well as the “paranoia” of rejecting public opinion, ignoring financial performance, and sticking to our own opinions, are all occupations It is difficult for managers to possess. This battle is almost a narrow victory. If it is later, TSMC is about to usher in the most powerful opponent in its life, a behemoth with a wealth of enemies-Samsung. 3. The Giant Samsung and the “rebel” Liang Mengsong Samsung is the largest conglomerate in South Korea. This large-scale company founded and controlled by the Lee family for nearly 90 years has nearly 100 subsidiary companies involved in many fields such as electronics, medical care, life, finance, construction, and hotels. Especially in the electronics industry, Samsung Group’s tentacles extend all the way up and down the industrial chain, including multiple key components such as screens, batteries, lenses, sensors, etc., relying on technology monopoly to make huge profits. Moreover, the Samsung Group’s acting style is very “Korean”, and my country’s mobile phone and TV industries have been squeezed by it. During the 1985-1987 Japan-U.S. trade war, Japan and the U.S. fought in the semiconductor field. Samsung made a profit and hollowed out Japan’s memory chip talents in one fell swoop. In the next few years, it will rapidly reduce market prices, with strong capital strength. Overcoming its opponents, it became the number one in the memory chip market in 1993 and the number one in the flash memory chip market in 2003, and has been dominating the market ever since. The smoke on the Japanese battlefield has not yet cleared, and Samsung has aimed at the next victim. According to a 2013 report by Taiwanese media “Today”, during the 2008 global subprime mortgage crisis, Samsung’s top management after many conspiracies finally decided to target Taiwan, China, the rising IT star. In order to seize the market share of Taiwan, Samsung has formulated a meticulous “Kill Taiwan (Eliminate Taiwan)” plan, which targeted the Taiwanese electronics industry and dumped the market. In the past few years, it has gradually crushed Taiwan’s electronics industry. The storage, panel, and mobile phone industries are triumphant along the way. And the lucrative foundry, naturally, can’t escape Samsung’s clutches. Due to the high investment in early-stage technology of the foundry, the smart Samsung did not have a head-on conflict with TSMC as soon as it came up, but cleverly chose the segment of the high-end market. Huang Chang-kyu, president and CEO of Samsung Electronics’ semiconductor business unit, also repeatedly emphasized in an interview with the media that Samsung’s foundry is mainly for high-end chip products, which is not the same as TSMC’s positioning. In 2009, it was a turning point for everything. During this year, three major events occurred: 1. The 78-year-old Zhang Zhongmou returned to TSMC and removed the “prince” Cai Lixing, and put on the CEO shirt again. 2. The “Hummingbird” mobile phone chip jointly developed by Apple, Samsung, and Intrinsity is available and produced by Samsung. This mobile phone chip is the proud work of Apple and Samsung. With it, Apple has produced the first generation iPad and iPhone4 that shocked the world, and Samsung has launched its famous smart phone, the Galaxy S i9000, which has become popular all over the world. . (For details, please refer to Apple’s Thirty Years of Core Manufacturing | Core Journey) Samsung’s foundry business also broke through the $400 million mark in one fell swoop. 3. Liang Mengsong, the backbone of TSMC’s technology, ran away in anger, was successfully poached by Samsung and came to South Korea. In Taiwanese media reports for many years since then, Liang Mengsong has been dubbed the title of “Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company’s No. 1 Traitor.” In this battle, the joining of Liang Mengsong instantly knocked the balance of strength between TSMC and Samsung. Liang Mengsong is a Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the University of California, Berkeley. His tutor is Hu Zhengming, the inventor of the FinFET, who is world-famous in the semiconductor industry and has continued his life for TSMC for 20 years. In TSMC’s 16 years, Liang Mengsong led the team to lay a lot of key technical challenges, not only has a strong technical research and development capabilities, but also has a deep industry Know-How. According to Liang Mengsong’s colleagues, he was a technical madman, strong, demanding, quick-tempered, and outgoing and hot-tempered, and he liked to go it alone. This was common in the raging remarks of Liang Mengsong’s angry remarks from the CEO of SMIC last year. To this day, Liang Mengsong still retains the angular technical arrogance of an engineer, and he has a strong love and perseverance for advanced technology. Fang Shuhua, the former chief legal officer of TSMC, once lamented, “(Liang Mengsong) he has a kind of obsession. He thinks that the most advanced technology can be reused.” This is why, when TSMC’s R&D vice president was changed in 2006, Liang Mengsong found that not only was he not promoted to R&D vice president, but was transferred from the front line of advanced technology R&D and arranged to be responsible for the mature process production line of the “Beyond Moore” program. The reaction was extremely fierce, and even angrily denounced it as “overhead”, “demotion” and “freezing”, and finally ran away in anger. At this time, the eagerly awaited Samsung is eager to open its arms to welcome Liang Mengsong’s arrival. The annual salary of hundreds of millions of Taiwan dollars and the chartered delivery of special planes to and from get off work are only basic operations. More importantly, Samsung has given Liang Mengsong absolute control and broad development space, allowing him to focus on advanced technology with peace of mind. After Liang Mengsong, Huang Guotai, Xia Jinqiu, Zheng Junlong, Hou Yongtian, Chen Jianliang and other old units of TSMC have also been successfully poached by Samsung, forming a strong “Taiwan team” within Samsung. In just a few years, Samsung’s foundry technology has advanced by leaps and bounds. The foundries are seeing the key technology nodes of 45nm, 32nm, and 28nm being overcome by Samsung one by one, and the gap with TSMC is getting smaller and smaller. In 2009, Samsung’s foundry business was only US$400 million; in 2010, this number surged to US$1.2 billion, and in 2013 it reached an astonishing US$3.95 billion. The speed of its rise is staggering. By the time TSMC sensed the danger and began to sue Liang Mengsong with a competition agreement, it was already a bit late. At this time, under the leadership of Liang Mengsong, Samsung, all the way to triumph, made an extremely bold decision-skip 20nm, march directly to 14nm, rush to the world’s first 14nm before TSMC, and declare war head-on. In 2015, TSMC launched the 16nm process, but Samsung completed 14nm mass production half a year ago, and successfully snatched the $1 billion Apple A9 order that should have belonged to TSMC. At the same time, it grabbed a huge order for Qualcomm chips. No two, so brilliant. Taiwan media’s report on Liang Mengsong, source: Sanli Finance and Economics Channel With backward manufacturing processes and loss of customers, TSMC’s stock price began to collapse. Credit Suisse, CLSA, and other brokers that have always been optimistic about TSMC, began to downgrade TSMC’s investment rating. At the Falun Dafa Conference on January 15, 2015, Zhang Zhongmou reluctantly admitted, “Yes, we are a bit behind when asked by analysts.” This is the biggest crisis that TSMC has faced since its establishment-in the past few decades, it has never been so significantly behind in advanced manufacturing processes. At this time, Zhang Zhongmou is 84 years old, and the world is full of doubts. Will TSMC still win this battle? The answer is yes. In order to launch a technical battle, TSMC followed Foxconn’s example and implemented a 24-hour three-shift R&D system. The basic salary of the participants was increased by 30%, and the dividend was increased by 50%. All the staff were red-eyed, and there was only one goal-to defeat Samsung. After Cai Lixing, TSMC’s treatment plant was already known for its “iron blood”. Under the high pressure of this chicken blood, it has burst out astonishing combat power. Not only did the 16nm process yield linearly increase, it also opened 10nm at the end of 2015. Sample delivery certification of the process. At the same time, TSMC also carried out a protracted lawsuit against Liang Mengsong. Even if Liang Mengsong repeatedly emphasizes that he has not leaked TSMC’s core secrets and “absolutely abides by the non-competition regulations”, it is useless. The major “presiding courts” in Taiwan, China, have made their stand on the team clear from the beginning. The presiding judge of the second instance, Xiong Songmei, even bluntly said, “(Taiwan) can have several large companies? If we don’t protect them (TSMC) ), who do you want to protect?” Just as Liang Mengsong was overwhelmed by the litigation, Samsung’s 14nm process was also the first to run, and there were obvious problems with yield and power consumption control, and even the iPhone6s “chip gate” incident, which caused Apple’s subsequent A9 additional orders to flow back to TSMC. In hand. Since then, Liang Mengsong has been troubled by litigation and said goodbye to Samsung, and was invited to join SMIC in 2017 as the CEO. In this round, TSMC once again narrowly won. However, to this day, Samsung still has not given up on the pursuit of TSMC. In 2016, Korean media reported that Samsung promised Qualcomm to carry the Snapdragon 830 chip in its Galaxy S8, provided that Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 830 orders will be produced by Samsung. In 2019, Samsung desperately lowered prices, rushed to order TSMC, and has successfully won orders from Nvidia. Li Zai F (second from left) visits the Dutch ASML factory in Eindhoven.

The two parties further discussed cooperation in 5nm, 3nm, and even more advanced processes. opportunity. The gunpowder has not stopped, and the war continues. end Looking back at TSMC’s 40 years of ups and downs, these three major battles happened to divide TSMC’s growth into three stages. In the early stages of growth, the Yuliang dispute between TSMC and UMC just promoted the explosion of the first generation of foundry technology. UMC’s aggressive “arms expansion competition” has accumulated a rich material foundation for TSMC’s future global dominance. In the mid-growth period, as the corporate organization became bloated and the “big company disease” quietly breeded, TSMC promptly killed it in its budding state and was not bound by financial statements. It strengthened the foundation of technology and established the long-term development of TSMC. The cultural foundation. In the later stages of its growth, when TSMC truly stood on the global stage, facing the wealthy and powerful chaebol giants, it not only re-cleared the research and development system, but also used international political relations to the point of success, leading the foundry industry in Taiwan to succeed. After Samsung’s “precision blasting”, we are on the road to global hegemony. Sometimes you should be most thankful for your enemies.

Dizziness with the road of a hundred zigzag turns in China There are dozens of roads in the world that make drivers tremble just by looking at the photos. Some of them were built with the remaining pebbles, slippery and crisscrossed on the cliffs and dangerous passes. Panlong in Xinjiang, China is one of them. ‘Panlong’ is the name of a winding mountain road known locally as the ‘highland sky road’. Located at an altitude of 4,200 meters, the road is nestled in the Pamir Plateau, the Kunlun Mountains, Taxkorgan District, Tajik, Xinjiang, China. Seen from the satellite map, the winding path was like a giant dragon hovering in the highlands. The 36 km long road creates a beautiful scene but is also extremely dangerous The winding road defies every silk steering wheel Located at an altitude of 4,200 meters, the path looks like a dragon flying in the middle of the plateau With spectacular views and hundreds of winding turns, this is probably the dream of those who love to drive. Of course only silk drivers are brave enough, reckless to drive on this winding road. When coming to this area, visitors can admire the magnificent scenery of the surrounding high mountains. The mountain views make a trip along this path truly a memorable experience. That beauty is compared to a rose with thorns, giving the driver the opportunity to challenge himself. The 36-kilometer long road allows mountain farmers and herders in the area to pass through Pamirs. The road connects the town of Tashkurgan county with another town nearby. To make travel easier and promote economic and social development in the region, Tajik will continue to improve its infrastructure. The Chinese authorities have approved a project to build an airport in the district.

According to the North Dakota Highway Patrol (NDHP) Twitter post, Sheets was praised for his professionalism and safety while driving the Peterbilt heavy-duty truck. It is known that this village driver started his driving job in the 1950s before turning to work as an auto mechanic. By 1974, Mr. Sheets returned to the trucking business and has remained in the business ever since. Currently he has more than 25 years working at a shipping company in Salt Lake City, Utah. The NDHP post quickly caught Mr. Sheets’s public attention. Share with Transportation Nation Network After being tested by the patrol, Sheets said they offered to take pictures and post them on social media. He was very surprised because he was noticed by many people. Without a computer or social media, he was informed by his family about his popularity after the photos were posted on Facebook and Twitter. The driver will turn 89 in August and he wants to continue working as a truck driver.

Therefore, according to Mr. Truong Duc Hai, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Vien Dong Pearl Company (specializing in organizing this special tour in Ho Chi Minh City), “the caravan model is more and more popular after the pandemic because both safe in health, ensuring disease prevention and fighting, and suitable for short-term travel trends, close distances by small groups and families “. Covid-19 is also the warning that Mother Nature sends to humans, when the environmental abuse, the environment has gradually become out of control. Therefore, trauma, trauma, loss after the pandemic has caused visitors to put higher requirements on the itinerary to experience, no longer purely play and relax, but have to find things of value, meaning and possibility. contribute positively to the community, preserve the landscape at the destination. With small cars, the caravan journey easily takes visitors to remote, dangerous but new and attractive destinations that large passenger cars cannot reach. There, guests will have different experiences about the lives of indigenous residents, learn about the quintessence of history – culture – cuisine – community activities … in strange lands, ethnic minorities are living along the S-shaped strip of land. In addition, this is an opportunity for members to combine tourism activities with charity programs – market research – investment promotion. , promote … practical, meaningful and effective. Participating in a caravan journey, visitors have the opportunity to drive by themselves, with a professional guide to share detailed and attractive destination information. Safety is absolutely guaranteed, when the tour has a guided car and tailgate with the libero supporting media and technology (if the group has more than 15 vehicles). Mr. Phung Gia Tuan, Caravan Vietnam Company, explained: “In order to be safe, the caravan must know how to distribute and arrange vehicles properly. For example, drivers who are young, weak and unfamiliar with the terrain must be sorted into the car. The middle position, which is attached to the front and back cover for peace of mind to move and not to break the link between the vehicles together.The team leader will adjust the appropriate distance between members depending on the terrain, weather or the level of danger of each downhill road. Vehicles are warranted, maintained and checked thoroughly before rolling. ” In addition, the organizer must prepare vehicle repair equipment, basic human first aid and necessary support plans when an incident arises. The pre-station process must be done periodically, to capture any changes from roads to local traffic arrangement regulations on the itinerary to have full information for tourists or adjust the route accordingly. safety. Tourism model towards sustainable development Restoring responsible tourism, taking sustainable tourism development as a direction. Develop different tourism products with economic efficiency criteria – local tourism development – preserve and promote historical cultural values ​​- join hands to protect the environment. That is the goal that the Hanoi Travel Association and the VGREEN Sustainable Tourism Club aim to, when shaking hands with the National Museum of History to design a series of VGREEN Caravan programs, which are recently launched. Attractive tours always have a starting point from the museum campus, where members are provided with initial historical knowledge and then have the opportunity to dissect each layer in the historical sedimentary bed of thousands the year of building and defending the country of the Vietnamese people along the way. Taking history as a starting point, making it a thread throughout the journey of discovery, this promising handshake demonstrates Covid-19’s “flexible – adaptive and effective” effort to overcome storms. VISTA Hanoi member travel businesses. An impressive start and receiving positive reviews from travelers was the caravan tour Northwest – Flowering season .

Mr. Phung Quang Thang, Vice President of VISTA cum President of VGREEN Club said: “Sustainable and responsible tourism helps businesses to participate in improving their image, better business, minimizing risks from objective impact This type of product has been responded by both domestic and foreign tourists, especially in the current period.With the locality that owns the destination, people are directly involved in exploiting the product, have the opportunity to eradicate hunger and reduce poverty thanks to a sustainable income source and thereby develop a true community-based tourism model “. The list of VGREEN “labeled” caravan tours is still very long, with many interesting routes inviting “travelers” to go. Not only linking travel businesses, in the direction of “if you want to go far, you have to go together”, the club also implements a series of professional training activities for the implementation team, such as organizing the workshop “Tour operation skills. Caravan “or provides specialized skills in ensuring safety, preventing and combating epidemics, protecting relics – heritage, reducing plastic waste, supporting communities in tourism … All to welcome, build building and developing an optimal tourism model with unlimited potential in the “post-Covid-19” recovery phase.

COVID-19 patients must share a bed at Lok Nayak Jai Prakash Hospital, New Delhi, India. Photo: Reuters Are there oxygen scarcity in hospitals? The current emergency scarcity is not because India has run out of oxygen. The main problem is that the oxygen does not get to the hospital in time. The delay was due to the very remote location of the oxygen production facilities, the large redistribution network and partly due to the government’s “bad scheme”. Over the course of the past week, several hospitals in the capital New Delhi, which are incapable of meeting a large demand for oxygen, have called for an urgent supply of oxygen. However, at the same time, the epidemic situation in the neighboring New Delhi states such as Uttar Pradesh and Haryana was also very bad, the number of hospitalized patients was overloaded, making factories have to give priority to meeting demand. local bridge. Therefore, hospitals in the capital have to order factories further from the industrial zones in the east of India. Why is the oxygen delivery delayed? Industrial oxygen production plants that serve the Indian capital are located in seven different states. Some factories are more than 1,000 kilometers from New Delhi. A vehicle transports oxygen outside an oxygen plant in Ghaziabad, a suburb of New Delhi, India. Photo: Reuters Due to the flammable nature of this material, all shipments of liquefied oxygen must be transported in special storage tanks, with detailed transportation plans to ensure timely deliveries, the source bear the name said. Over the past few days, as the interstate medical oxygen scramble in India worsens, some local authorities have disrupted the oxygen delivery to meet their local needs. before. As a result, Delhi received only 177 tons of pure oxygen on April 21, instead of 378 tons as allocated. However, some local sources said that hospitals in New Delhi have ordered without including the time to transport oxygen across many states by land. “It won’t happen if states plan and order two to three weeks earlier,” the source said. The Delhi government also did not respond to the plan to buy oxygen. Does India have enough oxygen production capacity? Medical personnel check oxygen tanks at a temporary quarantine facility in New Delhi. Photo: Bloomberg India’s daily production capacity can amount to at least 7,100 tons of oxygen, including for industrial purposes. This is enough to meet current demand. This week, the Government of India has decided to allocate 6,822 tons of liquid oxygen per day to the 20 states most affected by the COVID-19 epidemic. This is larger than the total demand of the localities with 6,785 tons, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Office said. On April 12, the amount of oxygen required by the health sector was only about 3,842 tons, just over half of the allotted oxygen, when the cases had not yet risen sharply. According to the Office of the Prime Minister of India, the oxygen capacity of India has increased by 3,300 tons in just a few days thanks to the shift of production of steel mills and industrial units to the medical sector. What will India do to deal with the oxygen crisis? Relatives funnel a victim who died of COVID-19 in a cemetery in New Delhi. Photo: Reuters. The government has mobilized Indian cargo ships to transport oxygen tanks from the factory to locations in most urgent need. In partnership with industrial gas corporation Linde India (LIND.NS) and many other companies, India is also using Air Force cargo jets to deliver empty tanks to production plants. Then, these tanks are refilled again and returned by road. In addition, the Indian armed forces are importing 23 mobile oxygen production machines from Germany to prepare for a worse situation. Many other industries are also reported to be supporting pure oxygen in hospitals. India’s multidisciplinary Tata group has imported 24 specialized containers for the transportation of liquid oxygen. An employee dismantles the oxygen tank from the car down to feed it into an oxygen pump plant. Photo: Reuters The government also issued an order to convert argon and nitrogen storage tanks for medical oxygen transportation. However, experts predict that India will face an increasing trend of daily cases in the next few weeks. Therefore, the country will have to increase production and distribution of these special types of medical supplies in the coming days.

More than 1.2 million black transactions over 2 years The work started in mid-2010, Ross Ulbricht, born in 1984, obtained a master’s degree at the University of Pennsylvania, USA, majoring in Computer Science but passionate about free economic theory. In February 2011, Ross and his two friends Jones and Smedley gave birth to the Silk Road website with the statement: “I create a model so that everyone can experience firsthand what we have. trading rights… ”. However, the things Ross sold for sale on the Silk Road site are murderous things. It includes heroin, cocaine, fentanyl, amphetamine, meth, marijuana, ecstasy … Customers who want to log into this website are required to buy an account and pay a monthly fee. After buying, Silk Road will provide them with a software that hides all information each time they log in to avoid the tracking of authorities such as the FBI, the US Drug Prevention Agency ( DEA). The average person who goes to the Silk Road site will only see it advertising about 10,000 products such as clothes, art works, books, cigarettes, jewelry … with public terms, such as “no sale or purchase. anything that has a malicious or deceptive purpose, including child pornography, stolen credit cards, weapons … ”but in fact, 70% of all goods sold online are drugs. Grouped with titles: Stimulants, hallucinogenic drugs, drug precursors, meth, opium, ecstasy, psychotropic drugs and steroids. Besides, there is also a fake driver’s license, but only members with access can access this “market”. Also to avoid being tracked, Silk Road’s server was located in Reykjavík, Iceland, while Ross took his alias (nickname) as Dread Pirate Roberts. All transactions on the Silk Road site are made with Bitcoin virtual currency, not cash. Ross Ulbricht, the owner of Silk Road. In June 2011, information about Silk Road began to appear in the press, making it famous, leading to increasing traffic. In this situation, an American senator, Mr. Charles Schumer, asked the FBI and DEA to close it. The collapse of Silk Road began in February 2013, when an Australian national cocaine and MDMA (ecstasy) dealer became the first person to be convicted for crimes directly related to Silk Road. While searching the man’s home, the police discovered files on his laptop that proved he bought drugs from Silk Road. In December 2013, Australian police cooperated with DEA ​​to arrest another New Zealander when he had just received 15 grams of methamphetamine purchased on Silk Road. The FBI obtained 11.02 Bitcoins – equivalent to $ 814 at the time. According to the FBI and DEA, based on collected data, from February 3, 2012 to July 24, 2012, an estimated $ 15 million in transactions were made on Silk Road. “A significant increase in volume from $ 30 million to $ 45 million in a short period of time won’t do,” Nicolas Christin, a Silk Road researcher, said in an interview with the Global Economic news site. I am surprised. The buyer and seller make all transactions in the virtual currency Bitcoin in the form of Mr. A, for example, placing an order for Bitcoin at an investment channel – of course it is legal. Then, Mr. A sold to Mr. B – it is also legal but in fact, the Bitcoin A sold to B is the amount to pay to buy drugs. Silk Road holds A’s Bitcoins through B’s account until A receives the goods. However, by the time A transfers Bitcoin to B, Silk Road will activate a hedging mechanism that allows B to retain the value of Bitcoin relative to the USD. Any change in Bitcoin price that occurs in the process of not being delivered to A, Silk Road is not responsible ”. According to the FBI and DEA, from February 6, 2011 to July 23, 2013, there were 1,229,465 completed transactions on the Silk Road website with the participation of 146,946 people, of which 30% came from the United States. followed by UK, Australia, Germany, Canada, Sweden, France, Russia, Italy and the Netherlands. The rest about 27% did not declare their address. Also during the 60-day period from May 24 to July 23, 1,217,218 messages were sent through Silk Road’s own system. The ecstasy sells on Silk Road for 0.69 Bitcoin 1 gram, but requires an account to log in. Make billions of dollars by selling drugs through the web At 3:15 p.m. on October 2, 2013, Ross Ulbricht, the founder of Silk Road, was arrested while in the Glen Park library, San Francisco city, California on charges of buying, selling, transporting narcotics, money laundering, illegally entering computer networks. Initially, the FBI seized 26,000 Bitcoins from Silk Road accounts, equivalent to $ 36 million (as of 2013). Near the end of October, the FBI collected an additional 144,342 Bitcoins, worth $ 87 million. The capture of Ross is also not easy because Silk Road operates on the hidden operating system, The Onion Router. First, FBI computer experts discovered Ross’s email address on the Gmail website. In those emails, a number of files were sent to a person named Altoid. From there the FBI knew that Altoid had once posted an article on a forum about the virtual currency Bitcoin, asking experts in the field to email him at an address. Following that address, the FBI found it linked to multiple Gmail accounts. Youtube and Linkedin all share the same destination, Silk Road. And because every time online, Ross uses the VPN protocol to conceal his location, so the FBI has to apply for a court order, requiring the internet provider to publish Ross’s VPN. It leads to an internet cafe in San Francisco and eventually a library in the Glen Park neighborhood, where Ross was arrested. Ross’ trial began on January 13, 2015 in Manhattan Federal Court. During the interrogation, Ross admitted he had founded the Silk Road website but he said that he transferred the admin rights to someone else shortly after Silk Road was born. In defense of Ross, the lawyers assumed that the nickname Dread Pirate Roberts was actually Mark Karpeles, and Karpeles used Ross to commit illegal acts. However, Judge Katherine B. Forrestra ruled, dismissing all of these excuses During the second week of the trial, the prosecutor presented documents and chat logs from Ross’s computer, proving he directly managed Silk Road using BitTorren software to conceal all manipulations. on the Silk Road site for both drug dealers and buyers. When the FBI arrested Ross, his personal computer was still running the software. Silk Road drugs sent to buyers by mail were seized by the FBI. On February 4, 2015, a jury convicted Ross of seven offenses, including “continuous participation in a criminal business, drug trafficking, intentional concealment of income, money laundering and trespassing. illegal computer entry ”. Ross was sentenced to life in prison without parole. It is worth noting that during the trial, Judge Forrest received death threats multiple times. On a website called The Hidden Wiki, someone posted Judge Forrest’s personal information, including his home address and social security number. Ross’s attorney Joshua Dratel stated that he and his client “strongly condemned anonymous posts concerning Judge Forrest”. “Ross has nothing to do with the site, and his The Hidden Wiki posts do not reflect his opinion,” Dratel said. In a letter to Judge Forrest prior to his sentencing, Ross said his actions through Silk Road were an expression of liberal economicism, and: “Silk Road was created to give everyone the right to their own choices, “but Ross also admitted” made a terrible mistake, ruined a lifetime. ” On May 29, 2015, a jury of the Manhattan Federal Court ruled that Ross had to serve 5 sentences, including 2 life sentences without parole, Ross was also confiscated $ 183 million. On May 31, 2017, the Court of Appeal rejected Ross’s appeal and the Supreme Court also refused to review Ross’ case. Parallel to the Ross trial, the court also brought to the trial two federal agents who secretly investigated Silk Road. One of these two is Carl Mark, a DEA employee, and the other is agent Shaun Bridges. Both took Ross’ money for falsely reporting Silk Road activities. Among the more than 130 suspects arrested by the FBI for drug trafficking and money laundering, there is Dutch drug dealer Cornelis Jan “Maikel” Slomp, 23, who was accused of buying and selling drugs on a large scale through the site. web Silk Road and sentenced to 10 years in prison. Another, Steven Sadler, was sentenced to five years in prison. In addition, there are two Silk Road administrators Andrew Michael Jones and Gary Davis with the nicknames “Inigo” and “Libertas”, both of which were also sentenced to prison. Shortly after Silk Road collapsed, on the Internet, there suddenly appeared a website Silk Road 2.0, operated by the nickname “Defcon”. On February 13, 2014, Defcon announced that $ 2.7 million in Silk Road 2.0’s escrow accounts had been stolen, but he promised to return the full amount to the account holders. On November 6, 2014, the FBI arrested Blake Benthall, who ran Silk Road 2.0 under the name “Defcon” with an Englishman, Thomas White, who started the website Silk Road 2.0 but information about the arrest. only announced by the FBI in 2019. Yet, in order to “follow” the Silk Road brand, in January 2015, Diabolus Market launched the Silk Road Reloaded website with features similar to Ross’ Silk Road. but it was also taken down by the FBI. On November 3, 2020, FBI agents specialized in currency tracking discovered 2 transactions with a total of 69,370 Bitcoins, worth about $ 1 billion at that time, made from a related address. Silk Road website. Investigation results showed that this Bitcoin belongs to an individual with the nickname “X”. who bought Bitcoin from Silk Road before it collapsed. According to the FBI, they are still investigating this address to see if it is a new generation Silk Road, or just the remaining issues of Silk Road.

Road 20 Quyet Victory begins at milestone 0 in the South of Xuan Son ferry, Son Trach commune, Bo Trach district, Quang Binh, crosses the top of Truong Son at parallel 17020 at km65 of the Vietnam-Laos border. When passing Lung Bang, the road 128 meets the shortened section connecting to Road 9, which is a focal point in the legendary HCM highway system. At exactly 17:00 on the 30th of the Lunar New Year of the Horse, 1966 the first explosion that opened the way was exploded. With more than 8,000 TNXP soldiers with a fleet of vehicles, engines and mines, breaking the completed road at a record speed, clearing the traffic on April 27, 1966. The road was named Duong 20 Quyet Victory because most of the officers and soldiers who opened the way were in their 20s. Milestone number 0 of the legendary 20 road. Photo: Xuan Nha Realizing the importance of this route, the American enemy raided them frantically. Right from Xuan Son ferry, the first point entering the road became a coordinates of fire, a bomb bag of the United States. Ferry A is Xuan Son ferry and ferry B is Nguyen Van Troi ferry located near Phong Nha cave and 4km apart, becoming two key points of fierce attack. During the day, L19 aircraft will scout and observe along the river bank. At night, C130 aircraft release parachute lights and flares all night to find targets to attack. The most severe was in May 1967, losing pain in the battlefield of the South, so the American enemy attacked more and more to cut the way for our aid. At Xuan Son ferry, they allowed aircraft to carpet bombs, drill bombs, time bombs, cluster bombs, and magnetic bombs day and night to plow to paralyze the banks. At other points on the road there was no moment of peace. The old Xuan Son ferry, now a residential ferry. Photo: Xuan Nha After a series of fierce bombs on the road, there were TNXP soldiers who rushed to patch the road for traffic for the South. Hundreds of soldiers fell in places such as: Km 0, Dong Tien slope, Tra Ang underground, Ba Thang slope, Khe Diem. In such fierce points as in the A-corner, the enemy destroyed 3,020 games (with 270 B52 matches). Following the A-line is the Ta Le underground and the Phu La Nhich pass with the length of 8km (ie the ATP key point) the enemy hit more than 10,000 times (2,450 times B52). One day, they mobilized 93 airplanes (8 B52 turns) to drop bombs on ATP. Nearly 200 officers and soldiers fell for this route to be clear. Death to clear the road In May 1967, the US imperialists sprayed bombs, making Xuan Son ferry blocked. Faced with the urgent situation of destroying the traffic bomb for the ferry terminal, Corporal Vo The Chon voluntarily opened a blood road. At 10:00 a.m. on May 16 (lunar calendar), everyone bowed their heads, wiped tears for peace for Corporal Chon during the live chorus ceremony before he stepped onto a canoe in the middle of the Son River to destroy the magnetic bomb. . The man in his 20s drove a canoe and plunged into the bombing field from the school. The canoe circled around, then two times after that there were loud explosions, ripping Son’s line with sky-high columns of water. After those loud explosions there was a silence and then all burst into the cheering applause of his comrades welcoming Corporal Chon. That brave man from Ly Hoa village has successfully completed the task. Even that night, 300 cars hurriedly passed the ferry in time to reach the South. Trang Ang intersection, street 20. Photo: Xuan Nha At Km 16 + 200 on Road 20 there was not a single day to stop the roar of enemy aircraft and the sound of bombs. Nearby, km 16.5 there is a rocky cave that when the plane crashes or raids 8 girls TNXP often runs into shelter. Since then, the warrior brothers often called this cave the eight-female cave. And that same stone cave has become the cave of fate of 8 people. In the afternoon of November 14, 1972, when it was discovered that B52 was spreading carpets, 8 TNXPs from Team 163, Ban 67 were on duty on the road (including 4 boys and 4 girls) ran back to the cave to shelter. An anti-aircraft artillery platoon consisting of 5 soldiers also maneuvered the battlefield near the cave entrance to organize a counter-force. A series of crazy bombs of the American enemy crushed the road, killing the gun squad on the spot and knocking down the cave where 8 TNXPs took refuge, trapping the soldiers in the cave. Or believe that, immediately combat forces in the area all came to the rescue. knowing that the soldiers in the cave were still alive, but because the cave’s boulders were too heavy, all vehicles and tractors did not budge. The blasting plan was not accepted because the pressure of the mines would immediately kill the soldiers in the cave, revealing the target for the enemy aircraft to return to attack. Finally, the teammates had to prolong the life in the cave by bringing the milk porridge into the cave through the tunnel through the rocks. Eight harsh days, the soldiers struggled with life deprived of oxygen in the cave. On the ninth day, the people standing outside the cave entrance choked when they came out of the cave with a girl’s faint “bruise” call. Then 8 TNXPs in the cave sent greetings to life at the age of 20. They are: Tran Thi To 18 years old, Le Thi Mai 20 years old, Do Thi Loan 20 years old, Le Thi Luong 19 years old and Nguyen Van Hue 20 years old, Nguyen Van Phuong is 20 years old, Nguyen Mau Ky is 20 years old, Hoang Van Vu is 20 years old. All are from Hoang Hoa, Thanh Hoa. Historical relic of Eight-year-old cave. Photo: Xuan Nha Road 20 now runs in the heart of Phong Nha – Ke Bang world natural heritage. This road has been upgraded to become the transportation lifeline of the people of Thuong Trach and Tan Trach communes of Bo Trach district, Quang Binh. These are two communes inhabited by 5 ethnic groups including Ma koong, Sach, Muong, Ca Rai and A Rem. On this road there are two ranger stations stationed at km27 and km39 to protect the national forest of Phong Nha – Ke Bang. Currently, the road plays a very important role in the lives of ethnic minorities living on the road, but it also has enormous historical significance in a legendary road.

Roadmap well prepared According to the registry centers in Ho Chi Minh City, the number of cars produced from 1999 to 2008 failed to register much. One of the reasons is due to the pre-existing registration roadmap, so people are aware of car maintenance and care during use. In addition, cars currently operating on the streets in Vietnam are not large and instead of using 10-20 years as before, car owners only use about 5-10 years to have the need to change new cars. . Mr. Tran Van Chu, branch director of the 5003V Registry Center, said that people had prepared and cared for cars in advance, so the fact that the car produced from 1999 to 2008 applies level 2 emission standards. it was too sudden for them to panic or worry. On a professional perspective, the director of another center shared that nowadays people also ride a lot of new cars, so the new emission standards are being met. According to this position, the good is not 100% of the cars are qualified, but with the current threshold, most cars do. In particular, the care and maintenance is one of the issues that greatly affects the emission standards. This director analyzed further, it is possible to compare emissions like using the stove for cooking, if you want to smoke out well, you must have a good source of ingredients. If wet firewood is used, the haze of the sky, likewise, poorly maintained engine and exhaust, not changing filters, or not cleaning the exhaust pipes will affect the exhaust gas. “As for a diesel engine, it doesn’t matter how to burn it, but being sprayed with black smoke is not good. Sometimes the exhaust or exhaust is clean, but the engine’s source (gasoline, oil) is not up to quality, ”- emphasized this taste. According to the Vietnam Registry Department, gasoline-powered vehicles from 1999 to 2008 accounted for 5.5% of the total number of sleds registered. Photo: THY NHUNG Tighten the emission test to protect the environment According to data provided by the Vietnam Registry Department, the number of vehicles produced from 1999 to 2008 failed to register too much. Specifically, from the beginning of 2021 to the end of April 19, for gasoline-powered vehicles, there were 13,121 sleds out of a total of 541,390 vehicles registered. Particularly, this type of vehicle has a production life from 1999 to 2008, accounting for 5.5% of the total number of registered sleds. As for diesel-powered vehicles, there are 36,278 sleds out of a total of 460,878 registered vehicles. Likewise, the number of cars produced between 1999 and 2008 also accounts for 12.7% of the total number of sleds registered. According to the Registry Department, the inspection of emissions in the automobile inspection started in 1999 in Vietnam. Currently, regulations on emission standards and emission measurement procedures for automobiles are regulated in Decision No. 16/2019 of the Prime Minister and National Standard TCVN 6438: 2018. . Accordingly, any vehicle may not meet the regulations on emissions in the technical safety inspection and environmental protection of motor vehicles in traffic if the vehicle is not inspected and maintained. regularly according to the manufacturer’s instructions and regulations. “The application of the new emission standard is part of the roadmap to raise the emission standards and tighten the inspection process for motor vehicles in Vietnam. Accordingly, this will contribute to reducing environmental pollution caused by transportation, contributing to creating a better living environment, protecting the environment, and protecting people’s health ”- Mr. Dang Tran Khanh , Deputy Head of Motor Vehicle Inspection Department, Vietnam Registry Department, said. According to Mr. Khanh, people should check and maintain their cars regularly, in accordance with the regulations and instructions of the manufacturer and before going to the inspection. In addition, it is also important to use a vehicle that conforms to its design specifications, without overloading the design load. From 2022, cars must meet 5 emissions standards Circular 06/2021 of the Ministry of Transport promulgating national technical regulations on level 5 emissions for new manufactured, assembled and imported cars takes effect from January 1, 2022. This Technical Specification specifies emission limits, tests and test methods, requirements for the management and organization of level 5 emissions checks in quality control, technical safety and protection. production and assembly automobile environment and new imported cars. Accordingly, the types of cars applied in this regulation include cars with at least four wheels, classified as low-standard-volume cars and high-standard-volume cars (explained in the circular. ). Tricycles with a self weight greater than 400 kg (considered cars according to TCVN 6211: 2003) are tested for exhaust gas according to QCVN 04: 2009 and QCVN 77: 2014. This Regulation does not apply to the following types of cars: Cars designed and manufactured to run on all types of terrain and roads that do not belong to the road traffic system; electric cars (cars that use electricity only as the driving force).

India is facing the worst Covid-19 outbreak in the world in recent weeks. An ambulance carrying patients queued for admission to the state Covid-19 hospital in Ahmedabad City, Gujarat state, April 22. (Photo: AP) Medical staff assist in bringing patients of Covid-19 into hospital in Ahmedabad City. (Photo: AP) Last Friday, hospitals in the capital New Delhi signaled for help to the government when the supply of oxygen was only enough to use for a few hours. (Photo: AP) India’s hospital system falls into a shortage of hospital beds and medical oxygen when there are hundreds of thousands of new infections every day. This South Asian country can produce at least 7,100 tons of oxygen / day, including the amount of oxygen for industry. In theory, with the above mentioned output, India could meet the current oxygen demand. The main problem is that medical oxygen is not delivered in time to the hospital to save the patient. This delay stemmed from the location of the production units and distribution systems. (Photo: AP) Medical staff removed the patient from the scene of the fire at Vijay Vallabh Hospital for Covid-19 treatment in Virar, near Mumbai, April 23. Thirteen patients died from the incident. (Photo: AP) People queue for medical oxygen refills in New Delhi. On April 21, at least 24 people with Covid-19 disease in western India died after running out of oxygen supplies supplied to their breathing apparatus. (Photo: AP) To address the serious shortage of medical oxygen, the Indian government has mobilized the country’s railway industry to organize high-speed trains that carry oxygen from steel mills to areas where the epidemiology is most critical. Over the past 24 hours, these special trains have transported nearly 150 tons of oxygen. (Photo: AP) The government also uses Indian Air Force cargo planes to transport empty containers to production centers. After being filled with oxygen, the tank will be transported to localities by road. The Indian armed forces are importing 23 German oxygen-producing mobile devices. In addition, the government has ordered the conversion of argon and nitrogen storage tanks into oxygen tanks. According to experts, in the coming days, the number of cases in India will continue to increase strongly, the country will have to solve two problems of oxygen production and distribution simultaneously. (Photo: Xinhua) According to the latest statistics, the state of Maharashtra accounts for 27% of India’s 2.5 million Covid-19 cases that have not been cured and 33% of India’s more than 190,000 deaths.

In just three days, the area had two landslides. Notably, the landslide point at the Gold Sand Hill project continued to pour a huge amount of red sand on Huynh Thuc Khang Street, Mui Ne Ward, Phan Thiet City. This is the second time in just three days that a huge amount of red sand from this real estate project has poured into the street. At 22:30 a.m. on April 23, Mr. Nguyen Van Phong, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee was directly present at the scene directing to resolve the problem. Mr. Phong asked not to let traffic jams happen and mobilized a white motor at night to release the amount of sand to fill the road surface. As PLO reported that on the night of April 20, after a heavy rain, sand from this Gold Sand Hill project collapsed onto the road, stretching about 200 meters long and up to 1 meter thick, completely cut off traffic in the section. this way. Mud and sand also spilled into some neighboring houses, causing two cars and a motorcycle in circulation to be buried by sand nearly half of the car body. The operators had to run away from their possession. According to people witnessing the incident, around 23:00 on April 20, water and sand flowed into some houses on the opposite side, the red sand flood also made the seafood restaurant of Mui Ne fishing village affected. heaviest because it is located at the sand spillway. Mr. Nguyen Van Phong (left), Vice Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee directs the settlement of the problem. Mr. Ngo Tien Ninh, owner of a seafood restaurant in Mui Ne fishing village, said this is the fourth time the restaurant has been affected by the sand spill incident from the project on the hill. The representative of the GoldSand Hill Villa project said that the cause of this incident was that at the end of the project there was land occupied by people, so it was impossible to build a technical drainage connection. In addition, through construction, the Company also proposed to relocate more than 100,000 m3 of sand recovered but not yet resolved. It is known that, after the incident on the night of April 20, Mr. Nguyen Duc Hoa, Vice Chairman of Binh Thuan Provincial People’s Committee sent an urgent dispatch to the Department of Construction to preside and coordinate with relevant units to conduct a physical inspection of the area. Goldsand Hill Villa project. At the same time, comparing all design documents, construction permits, construction items … to determine the cause of landslide, sand spillage on Huynh Thuc Khang street. The Provincial People’s Committee also requested the Department of Construction to coordinate with the Company to completely handle the incident, not to let the incident happen as recently. Implementation results are reported to the Provincial People’s Committee before April 26. The landslide road was covered with sand and the traffic was opened. The official letter of the People’s Committee also assigned the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to review all the documents that the Company proposed to move away from the project about 105,000 m3 of salvaged sand to soon guide the Company to follow the procedures as prescribed, no. prolonging the time to store the aforementioned sand mass in the project area when the rainy season is coming, creating the risk of land landslides, affecting the safety of the people in the area. The Provincial People’s Committee also assigned the responsibility to the Chairman of the City People’s Committee of Phan Thiet to inspect and strictly handle organizations and individuals involved in the land encroachment, obstructing the construction process, causing insecurity and order. ; soon hand over the site to the investor to connect the technical and drainage system. In particular, the above urgent dispatch also stated: “This, the Provincial People’s Committee has directed the People’s Committee of Phan Thiet City from September to 2020, but until now it has not been resolved completely. This is the main cause leading to the above landslide incident. In case of need, the People’s Committee of Phan Thiet City needs to have a plan to send a construction security force in the project area. Implementation results report to the Provincial People’s Committee before April 26 “. Immediately after the urgent direction of the Provincial People’s Committee, Binh Thuan Construction Department set up a team to inspect the infrastructure works of the project. Accordingly, infrastructure works such as leveling, traffic, pavement, water supply, rainwater drainage, wastewater, electricity supply … have been completed, in accordance with the approved design and planning documents. However, the investor has not completed the connection of the rainwater drainage system with Huynh Thuc Khang street, and there is no safety solution, so it focuses on a large flow when there is heavy rain. This causes landslides, damages technical infrastructure works and affects the environment and activities of people in the project area. On April 23, the Inspector of the Department of Construction made a record and issued a decision to sanction the investor with the amount of VND 25 million on the act of organizing the construction of works violating the regulations on quality control of construction works, damage to technical infrastructure works.

The idea called “Tiger leap” implies that through computerization, Estonia, or at least education, will have a strong leap in the future. Sincerely introduce the shares of former Estonian President Toomas Hendrik IIves about the success stories of Estonia in transforming the number of countries at the Vietnam Development and Reform Forum 2020. From Silicon Valley Let me begin by giving a paradox. For the past 3 years, I have lived in the middle of Silicon Valley, which is considered the center of innovation in information technology of the world. Within a 12 km radius of my Stanford office, you will find the headquarters of Tesla, Apple, Google, Facebook, Palantir and Youtube. There are also countless other commercial companies and services that earn a few billion dollars less than that. It is precisely considered the center of the digital revolution that in less than three decades has completely reshaped the world, a world that anyone had lived in previous periods could not recognize. Nearly all of these companies provide us with services used every day, from morning to night, while almost no one remembers 20 years ago none of these companies were born, if away. a little more, just 30 years ago, at the end of the Cold War would seem like a fantasy. Former Estonian President Toomas Hendrik IIves: Estonia needs a digital transformation, and the way to do it is through schools. However, when I live in the heart of Silicon Valley, if I need to enroll my child in school or get a driver’s license or have any interaction with the governmental level, local state, the country is most likely to be. I had to drive directly to the government office, wait or stand in line for hours. Then, fill out forms and applications by hand, stand in line to submit them, followed by weeks of waiting for results to be processed. In short, unlike the digital-life miracles that we live with our smartphones and the applications installed on them, public services and administration facilities are hardly different from those of years. 1950 and 1960. This is true in most of the world today, not only in developing countries but also in many of the richest, most “advanced” countries. To the case of Estonia How did Estonia go into the digitalization of government and why? This is a matter of developing economics, catching up with the West. In 1938, the final year before World War II, Estonia and its northern neighbor Finland were considered to have the same GDP per capita. Neither of the two countries is particularly rich, but the level of development is very close to each other. On the contrary, in 1992, the first year after Estonian independence was restored, Finland’s GDP per capita was approximately $ 24,000, while that of Estonia was only $ 2,800, a difference of eight times. . Furthermore, as is the case in all developing countries, Estonia faces a Zeno paradox about the quick Asin who has to keep up with the slow tortoise that left first. In this paradox, like Asin, Estonia will never catch up because that tortoise or the Finns, more broadly the developed countries of the world, they are ahead no matter what Estonia does. The solution to catch up lies in converting the number of countries. That inspiration came from my own life, from the fact that I understood the big leap in technology, that was the first internet browser. I was fortunate to learn computer programming at an age no one expected to learn to code at that time – 1969 when I was 15 in an experiment by a math teacher, who was studying for a PhD in teaching. teaches mathematics at Columbia University. Fifty years ago, learning to code involved hiring a standalone typewriter running a punch tape, a large telephone modem that had to attach a telephone receiver to a 10cm-wide vacuum pad, and then connected to a large memory computer (the central computer) located about 30 miles away. Even so, a small group of high school students all learned to program in Basic. Estonia’s solution lies in converting the number of countries Then, in college, I saw on a bulletin board an ad about programming for a computer in my lab for 10 hours a week. I applied and was quickly seated in front of a coffee table-sized box. It was the PDP-8, the first commercially available small computer, used in laboratories in the 1970s and so named because of the maximum memory capacity of 8 kilobytes. Today, this number is the size of a blank email. Because of this limitation, all instructions must be written in Assembler, a hexadecimal (hexadecimal) programming language with all instructions written in alphanumeric code. However, with my high school programming knowledge, it was not an insurmountable challenge for me. Twenty-five years after learning programming and desperate about how Estonia could catch up with Western Europe, I came up with the idea that if I could learn to do it as a high school student, then All children can and should learn to use a computer. Second source of inspiration A second inspiration for the digitization of Estonia came in 1993, when the first web browser, Mosaic, was born. Mosaic cost about 29.95 USD in 1993, you actually have to go buy this browser in a store and install it on your computer using floppy disk. As a computer geek, I did this. However, what surprised me when I finally got this browser up and running is that there is something new, very different, but at the same time very promising, when all the countries, rich or not poor as the United States, Finland, Estonia, Germany, and Japan are all in the same position, starting on a level playing field. That’s when Estonia needs to do digital transformation, and the way to do it is through schools. While the Internet is still in its infancy, you can still see it working anyway. Right then, I knew that although it would take time, it would take off and dominate our lives. It was only four years after Tim Berners Lee, the father of the worldwide network (www), invented the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol, the “http” symbol you see before. all Internet sites and what allows the Internet to function. Certainly the West already has a system of highways, interstate highways and a developed infrastructure in general, but the Internet will be everyone’s future, but it won’t give anyone the edge for half a century. development that Estonia did not have. At least if Estonia quickly boarded this train. Luckily, Estonia had a wise Education Minister at the time of 1995, Dr. Jaak Aaviksoo, who was willing to take risks, who pushed the government to approve the proposal to include computers in all schools. Tiger dance From these two sources of inspiration, I have proposed to the government a start to digitization. Knowing that this will take years, and based on the pace of learning to code by me and my previous classmates, I think it’s best to start with young people first. I suggest that Estonia start by making computers and computer instruction accessible to all students. The idea is called “Tiger leap”, to imply that through computerization, the country of Estonia, or at least education, will have a strong leap in the future. Luckily, Estonia had a wise Education Minister at the time of 1995, Dr. Jaak Aaviksoo, who was willing to take risks, who pushed the government to approve the proposal to put computers in all schools, connect all of them together. This idea was not approved by everyone. The Federation of Teachers was fiercely opposed to computers in schools, that they would destroy education. In nearly a year, not a single issue of the teacher union weekly has not had a strong rebuttal to this idea. Indeed, for most of the next 20 years, opposition parties seem to have chosen digital transformation as a matter of criticism. However, the government has implemented this policy, using a 50-50 counter-financing mechanism in which local governments are willing to pay half the price of computers to be paid by the central government for the remaining 50%. Three years later, in 1998, all schools in Estonia had a computer lab with an internet connection. Not long after, the banks noticed the success and reputation of the project and decided to participate. It’s pure and simple self-interest: Every tiny village has at least two bank buildings with staff, an increasingly expensive but simply unsustainable way. Along with some government funding and the strong participation of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), banks have launched a program to ensure every village has e-banking located at Internet access is also provided to government offices or city libraries. In addition, the banks have supported a training program for the elderly and rural residents to learn how to use computers for online banking transactions.

However, the new administration’s policy toward China in the US has not yet removed the shadow of its predecessor, has not escaped the misunderstanding in perception of China and has not found the right way to conclude. delivery with this country. He gave 5 points on how to view the Sino-US relationship from a strategic perspective, wanting the US to perceive objectively and to deal with China’s development; to work together with China to find a new way to peacefully coexist and win cooperation together; respect and tolerate the path and regime that China chooses; practice authentic multilateralism and stop interfering in China’s internal affairs. The Chinese Foreign Minister reaffirms that the country’s development and reassurance are “not meant to replace or defeat anyone” and that it needs equality. “Either China or the US is successful does not mean the other side fails,” he said. Separating from the world’s second largest economy and facing China’s 1.4 billion people, it not only does not help the US in resolving the conflicts faced, but also confuses the world ” . According to Mr. Vuong Nghi, the key to properly handling the relationship between the two sides is “whether the US can accept the peaceful rise of a major country with a social regime, cultural history and a period of time. develop differently or not “. China welcomes President Biden’s administration to return to multilateralism, said Wang Yi, but said that true multilateralism is “not allowed to confront the new group under the banner of multilateralism. , do not set up closed factions under the guise of multilateralism “. The Chinese Foreign Minister also reaffirmed that Beijing will “respond legally” when “national sovereignty and national dignity are threatened and violated”. He called on the two countries to go beyond the inevitable view that “conflict is bound to arise between emerging and current powers”, beyond ideological differences and social regimes, beyond thinking. Cold War and group confrontation, actively seeking ways to live peacefully and win cooperation between the two great powers./.

Three years have passed since the selection, and now I look at this street again. East Street to the east is across the street from Taikoo Li Business District. There are as many as 164 hot pot restaurants, which continue to be crowded. To the north is Dongsheng Street. Barbecue is spread all over the street, full of the taste of the market; Lan Kwai Fong to the south is not drunk or not, and the lights are brilliant. Only the Palladium Street in the middle grows naturally. Outside the quiet residential area, there is an existence that integrates fashion, literature and art with firewood, rice, oil and salt.

The smartest street-Daxue Road

Mr. Liushahe once said: “The five major cultural landmarks in Chengdu, I think they are the Old and Young City, Huaxiba, Thatched Cottage, Wuhou Temple and Chunxi Road. The other places are all city scenes, but Huaxiba is a humanistic atmosphere.”

Unlike other streets, Daxue Road in Huaxiba always reveals a bookish atmosphere.

Whether it is the West China Campus of Sichuan University, which is one year older than Tsinghua Academy, or the West China Hospital of Sichuan University, which is a top medical leader in China, the literary atmosphere and “study hegemony” temperament here are becoming stronger and stronger.

In March of this year, Huaxiba, as one of the important components of the “Nine Squares” in the “Eight Streets, Nine Squares and Ten Views”, also opened a new chapter.

People can see the history of Huaxiba through the “River of Time and Space” at the foot, through the MG animation of Huaxi Story House, immersive multimedia corridors and other means, they can see the humanistic stories and academic achievements of Huaxiba, and the English wall on the roadside The Sichuan dialect is translated into one sentence in English, which is agile and interesting.

The most mixed street-Mengchaiwan

For the old Chengdu people, Mengchaiwan carries too many memories, old teahouses, Sichuan theaters, swimming pools, state-owned factories… But with the rapid development of the city, the old streets and alleys here are all quiet.

When everyone thought it was going to continue to disappear, it turned red in surprise and realized a wave of overtaking in curves.

In the past, the office building of the Old Chenghua IRS was transformed into an urban public space integrating Mengchaiwan Story House, Geometry Bookstore, and small theater;

Feng shui expert Phung Phuong said, according to the opinion of many people, the house is located at a junction, there is a road that crashes straight into the bad, very bad soil. The killing intent from the road straight into the house makes the family members easily die and get sick. It is because of this mentality that the houses at the junction, especially the houses in the alleys in the inner city area, have more difficulty in dealing. However, is this completely correct? According to feng shui experts, the above conception of human has many points that need to be reconsidered. To consider disaster or happiness, we need to rely on many factors: Correlation between the house and the straight line Small, big house: not worrying. Small big street: direct killing intent like “swallowing” the house. Correlation between the passing line and the straight line If the crossroad is larger, it will reduce the radiation pulse, the straight line will hardly impact the killing intent on the house. Is there any work in the straight line? The good and bad of this project will have a big impact on the air flow at that junction. For example, a spacious street, clean house, greenery, dignified road, this is a good intersection (Minh Duong intersection). But if there are landfills, barns, wasteland, and industrial zones, it will create impurities and dust that will have a very bad effect. Length of intersection The greater the traffic density, the greater the danger of direct collision, the flow of vehicles will be a weapon that penetrates into the house, called radiofrequency. So in fact, there are many works at the junction that are still peaceful and convenient, only in a few cases with killing intent, but there will still be a way to dispel the violence. * Information is for reference only.

With the federal government canceling an agreement related to the Victoria State’s “Belt and Road” initiative, Australia-China relations are worse than ever (Photo: Multidimensional). According to the news site Multi-Dimensional (Dwnews) April 23, citing AFP on the same day, said US State Department spokesman Ned Price on April 22 announced his solidarity, claiming that Australia is facing China’s “forced diplomacy”. , said the Australian government had made its own decision, but because it suffered greatly from Beijing’s actions. “We will continue to stand side by side with the Australian people as they are the leaders facing the coercive actions of the People’s Republic of China,” Ned Price told reporters. Mr. Ned Price, spokesperson for the US State Department (Photo: Dong Phuong). Australia has shown that these “Belt and Road” agreements are inconsistent with Australian foreign policy. China warned that Australia’s withdrawal from the agreement would seriously damage the relations between the two countries. According to previous reports, the Australian government announced on April 21 that it would cancel Victoria’s four foreign agreements, including two related to China’s “Belt and Road” initiative. These two agreements were signed between the Victorian government and China’s National Development and Reform Commission. One of them is a memorandum of understanding signed in October 2018 and the other is a framework agreement signed in October 2019. The Chinese Embassy in Canberra criticized the move as an “unreasonable provocation”. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Uong Van Ban also responded saying that China expressed strong resentment and firmly opposed it, had “strict relations” with Australia and China reserved the right to respond. more in-depth on this. Australian Foreign Minister Marise Penn announced the cancellation of two agreements related to “Belt and road” Victoria signed with China (Image: Reuters). In this case, Australian female Foreign Minister Marise Payne replied: “This plan is very relevant to the national interests of Australia. This action (canceling the two agreements) to ensure consistency in foreign relations. We are all over Australia and it certainly is not aimed at any country. ” She expressed Australia’s efforts to contact China and “requires all governments around the world to respect our government’s decision-making authority”. On April 22, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison also stated that the cancellation of the related agreement was because the federal government did not want the agreements signed by other authorities to go against Australia’s foreign policy.

On the Chinese side’s response, the news site Multidimensional give details: At a regular press conference of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs taking place on the afternoon of April 22 in Beijing, a reporter asked: “Recently, the Australian government announced the rejection of the cooperation agreement” The Belt and Road “was signed by the Victorian government with the National Development and Reform Commission of China. Please ask what China has to comment on this? “. Mr. Uong Van Ban, spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China replied: “Australia’s Victoria has decided to cooperate with China within the framework of the“ Belt and Road ”initiative to improve the welfare of the people. people from both sides. This is inherently a mutually beneficial affair. The Australian Government has unreasonably vetoed the “Belt and Road” cooperation agreement signed between the Victorian Government and China; arbitrary interference undermines normal exchanges of cooperation, seriously harms China-Australia relations and mutual trust. Mr. Uong Van Ban said, “China expressed strong resentment and strongly opposed it and had strict relations with Australia, China reserved the right to make a deeper response to this.” China urged Australia to give up Cold War thinking and ideological stereotypes, treat Sino-Australian cooperation objectively and soberly, and immediately correct mistakes. make mistakes, change directions, do not go further on the wrong path, do not make the China-Australia relationship that is in serious difficulty worse. ” Mr. Uong Van Ban: China expressed strong resentment and strongly opposed it and has strictly interacted with Australia, China reserves the right to give deeper reactions (Photo: Orient).

Framework for the “Belt and Road” initiative was signed between China and the Victorian government. “Australia’s move is yet another irrational provocation against China,” said the Chinese embassy spokesman. It once again shows that Australia is not sincere in improving China – Australia relations, which will definitely cause more damage to the bilateral relationship, the country will definitely carry stones for its feet “.

Sheet Canberra Times published an article saying that Australia’s actions “made China ache” and that Victoria’s was seen as “against the interests of the country” in the eyes of Canberra officials.

Nineth News Network Marise Penn, based in South Australia, revealed that Marise Penn went to Sydney to speak after announcing the cancellation of the deal, saying that the Australian side is still in contact with China.

For example, Roland Rajah, the lead economist at Lowy Institute, an Australian consulting organization, published an article on April 22 in the newspaper. The Century and Sydney Morning Herald “Why does our economy accept the veto of the agreement related to the Belt and Road initiative”, saying that Beijing’s sanctions against Australia are still limited to a relatively small scope, for example such as barley, beef, copper ore and coal. China will not cut off purchases of major Australian commodities such as iron ore and natural gas. After large commodity trade between China and Australia continued and small items shipped to other exporters, Australia was able to recover under Chinese “sanctions”.
