Inside a shopping mall in the capital Kuala Lumpur, June 1. (Photo: Reuters) The Malaysian Government’s strategy to bring the country out of the Covid-19 crisis consists of four stages and specific criteria. Accept economic damage to flatten the epidemic curve Malaysia began implementing a nationwide blockade order from June 1, after the number of daily cases exceeded 9,000 cases and put tremendous pressure on the health system. Restrictive measures will be extended until June 28. In a televised speech on June 15, Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin said that the nationwide blockade order had helped Malaysia “flatten the curve” of the epidemic and avoid falling into a tragedy. During the lockdown, the Malaysian economy suffered about one billion ringgit a day (about $243 million). Most businesses have to close, except for some essential service and economic sectors. However, Malaysian Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin said that “light will be at the end of the tunnel” when it comes to speeding up vaccinations. Yassin announced the recovery plan as the number of Covid-19 cases in Malaysia continues to decline and an additional 16 million doses of the Covid-19 vaccine have been secured to the country by the end of July. National Recovery Plan in four phases Prime Minister Yassin announced a four-stage National Recovery Plan with three specific indicators to use as a basis for deciding whether to lift restrictions and if so, when. Each phase will be implemented based on the average number of cases per day, the capacity of the public health system and the population vaccination rate. Malaysia is in phase one of this plan. The number of new Covid-19 cases in the country remains high, the public health system is in a very critical situation, the vaccination rate is low, and the nationwide movement control order is in effect. In stages, restrictions on economic activities and the social sector will be further eased. The nationwide movement control order took effect from June 11. (Photo: AP) Malaysia will move to phase two of the plan if the daily number of new cases falls below 4,000 cases per day, the vaccination rate reaches 10%, and the intensive care units operate at “moderate” capacity. If in phase one, only essential services are allowed to operate, all fields and social activities are banned, then in phase two, there will be some more economic sectors such as manufacturing industry The output is allowed to operate up to 80% capacity. However, social activities and interstate travel are still not allowed. The government wants to bring the country into phase two as early as next July. Malaysia will enter phase three when the daily number of cases falls below 2,000 cases per day, the health care system operates in a more comfortable state and at least 40% of the population receives two doses of the Covid-19 vaccine- 19. All economic sectors will be allowed to operate, except for those considered high risk such as at nightclubs, pubs, event centers, spas and beauty salons. “All economic sectors will be operating at 80% capacity, similar to the second phase. And social activities such as education and some sports activities may resume in stages,” Yassin said. He expressed hope that Malaysia will move to phase three as early as the end of August. The fourth phase will take place when the daily number of cases is less than 500 cases/day, the health system and intensive care beds operate at a safe level, at least 60% of the population is fully vaccinated. “Based on the predictions of the National Covid-19 Vaccination Plan, this transition is expected to be implemented as early as October 2021,” Prime Minister Yassin said. At that time, all economic sectors will be back to work, more social restrictions will be lifted and interstate travel and domestic travel will be resumed. To date, Malaysia has recorded more than 667,876 cases of Covid-19, of which more than 4,000 have died and nearly 594 thousand have completely recovered. Malaysia recorded more than 5,000 new cases on almost all days from May 19 to now. Currently, Malaysia ranks third in Southeast Asia, after Indonesia and the Philippines, in the number of Covid-19 cases.

Possessing a magnificent beauty by the construction of nature, Tu San alley is majestic and proud between heaven and earth. In 2009, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism classified this area as a scenic relic of Vietnam, Nho Que River was honored as one of the unique tectonic valleys of Vietnam. Panoramic view of Tu San alley seen from above. Every view of Nho Que River is so beautiful that it attracts visitors With a cliff height of 800m, a length of 1.7km and a depth of nearly 1km, Tu San alley is known as the deepest canyon in Southeast Asia, a unique wonder in the Dong Van rock plateau. The road down the alley is also enough to challenge the health of each visitor. From the car and motorbike stop, visitors have to walk 800m down to the marina. In October, the way down will have beautiful buckwheat flowers Visitors going from the boat side will usually ask for the help of local people at a cost of 30,000-50,000 VND. Or, choose to ride a motorbike uphill 8km long for 100,000 / way. Currently, the lakebed area of ​​Nho Que 1 Hydropower Plant has 40 boats registered as passenger transport services. This service provides a stable source of income for houseboats and creates jobs for people here. Since the date of Nho Que hydroelectricity, which prevents the river from flowing so fast, there is a kayak rental service for visitors to swim and admire the view of Tu San alley for about 300,000 VND. Visitors can buy a group boat ticket for 100,000 / person, if renting the whole boat is 500,000 / trip for the journey to see Tu San alley for about 1 hour. For large groups of tourists, the rental price for a boat is from 500,000 to 700,000 depending on the size of the boat. Tu San Canyon is the deepest river canyon in Vietnam.

In the midst of the majesty of the natural mountains and forests, from afar, Tu San Canyon with Nho Que river looks like a green thread, crossing the back of the pass.

The company is interested in planting large timber trees. The tropical monsoon climate is a favorable condition for Vietnam to exploit the largest natural wind source in Southeast Asia. With the potential for average wind speeds of more than 10m/s, Vietnam’s territorial waters are in the top 10% of windiest places on the planet. Some wind power plants are rushing to be completed, in parallel with that is promoting afforestation, greening bare hills, bringing more sustainable growth to localities. Energy source to protect the environment Currently, energy generated from fossil fuels accounts for about 67% of the energy supplied to the world, but is polluting the environment with carbon dioxide emissions. Producing wind power with a 20-year-old turbine generates renewable energy (RE), with no carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. According to calculations by the European Wind Energy Association (EWEA), the potential for wind power installed in Europe by the end of 2007 with a total capacity of 56.5 GW, will avoid the emission of 90 million tons of CO2 to the environment per year. year. This is equivalent to 45 million cars on the road. In addition to being able to cut CO2, wind power also avoids toxic chemical waste such as mercury and other chemicals that pollute the environment. Using wind power will not deplete or destroy natural resources, but also ensure good use of resources from wind potential. According to the United Nations (UN’s Emissions Gap Report 2020), success in managing the transition to green energy will help developing countries take the leap beyond high-emission technologies. CO2, which underpins richer nations. Vietnam with about 97 million people and 6.5-7% GDP growth has seen energy consumption more than double since 2010. Access to reliable, cost-effective energy sources will be a factor. important for sustainable economic growth. Wind Turbine No. 1. Working together for the program “one billion trees” In the orientation and planning of renewable energy development, Nhon Hoi 1 Wind Power Plant and Nhon Hoi 2 Wind Power Plant invested by FICO Binh Dinh Energy Joint Stock Company as an investor are being built at Phuong Mai mountain, area. Nhon Hoi economy, Binh Dinh province. This is one of the areas assessed to have the largest wind power potential in the country. Nhon Hoi 1 Wind Power Plant has a capacity of 30 MW, surveyed, researched and invested on an area of ​​about 175 hectares, with a total investment of more than VND 1,321 billion. Nhon Hoi 2 Wind Power Plant Project has a capacity of 30 MW, surveyed and researched on an area of ​​about 201 hectares, with a total investment of more than 1,249 billion VND. As of May 2021, the factory has basically completed the infrastructure and safe transportation of super-heavy equipment. Compared with other renewable energy sources such as solar power, after installing wind turbines, the area where the wind turbines are located is still used for farming or other agricultural and forestry activities. Mr. Huynh Van Luan, Deputy General Director of FICO Binh Dinh Energy Joint Stock Company, said that the Nhon Hoi Wind Power Plant site is refurbishing the infrastructure and landscape, accelerating the speed of afforestation. The whole project is expected to be completed by the end of August. Due to the steep rocky and windy terrain, Phuong Mai mountain has no large trees, mainly naturally growing low shrubs. The afforestation project of FICO Company invests in afforestation of large timber trees on the entire Phuong Mai mountain, phase 1 of the project to plant 40 hectares of forests will be implemented from April 2021 by Anh Vu Seed Company Limited. Due to the hot season, priority should be given to afforestation in favorable locations first. Plant breeding work and planting site are also actively preparing for mass planting starting from August this year. The selection of plant species must also take into account factors that are suitable for the rocky terrain and harsh sea breezes at Phuong Mai mountain, therefore, the company will research plants suitable for natural conditions, soil, Abundant native trees create lush green forests. Also according to Mr. Huynh Van Luan, afforestation is difficult, care and protection of forests is even more difficult. “In order to implement the project effectively, we have taken into account detailed plans, such as care procedures, pest control, and weed clearance. Particularly for the Phuong Mai mountain afforestation project, the company will prioritize using local workers right from the stage of planting to tending, managing and protecting forests … “, Mr. Luan affirmed.

Thailand Thailand is the first country to announce the national costume. It seems that to avoid the possibility of matching the national costume with Laos, Thailand has published an image of the national costume for the competition. Miss Universe from the end of 2020. Representative of Laos at the competition Miss Grand International 2020 took place earlier this year, also selected the image of Siamese fish in the national costume contest. The set Trirong Anongnat Suphanmacha of Thailand’s representative to attend Miss Universe this time was created with the inspiration of Mrs. Suphan Macha in the epic series Ramayana . Suphan Macha transforms into a Siamese fish, Thailand’s iconic animal with magical colors. The three colors of the Thai national flag are cleverly incorporated into the colors on the swaying fins. Siamese fish also known as Warriors of the Siam River ( River Fighter of Siam ), known by the Vietnamese as “Thai fighting fish”, is the national aquatic animal of Thailand with a history of more than 100 years and is world-famous. Indonesia The Indonesian representative’s national costume is inspired by the Komodo dragon, the heaviest lizard on Earth, and is said to be “the creature with the last connection to prehistoric dinosaurs”. Komodo dragons can only be found on the islands of Indonesia, so it is understandable that the representative of this country chose Komodo for the national costume. The outfit is even illuminated at the neck and gloves thanks to the LED system mounted inside. Laos The representative of Laos brought to Miss Universe the 69th time an extremely expensive costume, the cost of making it set This item amounted to nearly 280 million VND. The costume shows a lot of beauty and rich culture of Laos, from famous landmarks (mounted on umbrellas), to the four-headed god in the Lao New Year story. Malaysia If talking about the level of “hacking” then perhaps no Southeast Asian country can compare with the national costume of Malaysia. The representative of this country brought to Miss Universe a 45kg 2-in-1 national costume called Kampungku, with the image of 2 meticulously and elaborately built houses. The first house is quite simple, reminiscent of childhood memories of Malaysians. Miss Malaysia will step out to greet the audience for a while and then return to the house, rotate 180 degrees to flip to the second house, and during this time, she must also change her outfit as quickly as possible. body, then walked out in a completely different dress. This second home is inspired by the beauty of the sunset and Malaysia’s Sarawakia heritage. Malaysia’s national costume design this time received great admiration and encouragement from domestic and international fans. And if Miss Malaysia wins the Best National Costume award of Miss Universe The 69th time is no wonder. Cambodia The Cambodian representative brought to Miss Universe this time an outfit called “Khmer Puppet” ( The Khmer Puppet ), the costume is handmade, beaded extremely sophisticated, showing the unique tradition of the Khmer. The national costume of Miss Cambodia this time is highly appreciated, praised for being much better quality than previous international competitions. Myanmar According to the previous official announcement, Miss Myanmar brought a very special costume to the 69th Miss Universe. The outfit with the image of a doll. PyitTineHtaung , which means “no matter how hard you try to push me down, I will still get up”. This is also a meaningful message to mention the spirit of the current Myanmar people, they will not give up no matter how confusing the country’s situation is. However, it seems that due to the loss of luggage, Miss Myanmar appeared in the contest with a completely different national costume, she was holding a board. Pray for Myanmar (Please pray for Myanmar ) onto the stage. Philippines The representative of the Philippines decided to hide the national costume until the end, not revealing any pictures until the official Miss Universe national costume contest. However, before that, the details of the outfit were also revealed by Miss Philippines to the media. Inspired by the logo of the Miss Universe Philippines pageant with the blue and red colors of the national flag, plus an image of a woman reaching for the stars. Compared to the costumes of the representatives from Southeast Asia, Miss Khanh Van’s Coco Em is also considered extremely sophisticated, however, the color is somewhat faded when performing on stage. .

Although Indonesia still ranks 5th globally in the number of ransomware attacks detected, it has dropped from 1,158,837 cases in 2019 to 439,473 cases in 2020. This downtrend also also appeared in other countries in the region including Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia and Thailand. China remains at the top of the list for the number of ransomware cases globally in both 2019 and 2020. Meanwhile, Brazil and Russia have swapped the 2nd and 3rd place in the rankings, with Brazil currently ranked 2nd by 2020. “When I look at the statistics for individual ransomware groups, I find that this trend is in line with an overall drop in the number of detected cases,” said Fedor Sinitsyn, security researcher at Kaspersky. This is mainly due to the decrease in the number of cases involving WannaCry. This group makes up a significant portion of all the ransomware discovered to date, although for more than three years these have not been supported by the “originator” and exist only as one. “zombie” “. One of the most persistent cyber threats facing small and medium businesses in the region is still ransomware, malicious code designed to infect the computers of organizations and individuals, and encrypting data. Data inside and block access to the computer. The attackers will then request a fee from the victim in exchange for re-activation of the system. Ransomware attacks may be on the decline, but Kaspersky has been warning businesses of all sizes in every sector about the increasing activity of Ransomware 2.0, also known as ransomware. have purpose. Mr. Yeo Siang Tiong, General Manager of Kaspersky Southeast Asia commented: “We should not be optimistic that the number of detected ransomware cases has decreased. Since last year, we have noticed a number of changes to this threat. The ransomware teams are now more concerned with quality than quantity. This means that instead of randomly and passively waiting for an unsafe user to bite, the attackers are now actively hunting for victims ”.

Assoc.Prof.Dr. Ngo Duc Thanh, Hanoi University of Science and Technology. (Photo: Bich Lien) That is shared by Assoc. Ngo Duc Thanh, Hanoi University of Science and Technology – a young scientist who has just received the nomination for the Ta Quang Buu Prize in 2021 announced by the Ministry of Science and Technology. Sincere and full of enthusiasm of the scientist who met us, Assoc.Prof.Dr. Thanh said: Global climate change (CC) is a contemporary challenge that humanity is facing. Many human and computational resources are focused by the world to make future climate change scenarios under different assumptions. In 2012, at an international conference in Vietnam led by Assoc. Ngo Duc Thanh co-organized, Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiments (Southeast Asia) project coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiments (Southeast Asia) was established with the goal of sharing computational resources, human resources and promoting research for Southeast Asia. As soon as CORDEX-SEA was initiated, Assoc. Ngo Duc Thanh and his colleagues have embarked on research on simulating extreme temperature and precipitation factors for Southeast Asia. The study focuses on a number of climatic factors for the entire Southeast Asia region such as the number of heavy rainy days, the number of consecutive rainy or no rainy days, the number of days when the temperature is too hot or too cold … The program helped him to be named in the list of nominees for the Ta Quang Buu Award in 2021 – the project “Evaluation of the ability of the RegCM4 model to simulate the extreme indicators of rain and temperature in the CORDEX-Southeast. ASIAN”. According to Assoc. Ngo Duc Thanh, there are currently many models with different parameter configurations that can be used to calculate future climate change for the global as well as for individual regions such as Southeast Asia. However, different models will give different errors in different countries, regions, and times. During more than 4 years of implementation, Assoc. Ngo Duc Thanh and international colleagues conducted 18 simulation experiments to find the most suitable and optimal model configuration capable of representing the extreme climatic factors of rain and heat. area. 18 experiments were also ranked, from which the most optimal set of model parameters were selected, serving the long-term climate change projection until the end of the 21st century. After being announced, the work received the attention of the research community inside and outside the area. By providing the most optimal model parameters for long-term simulation experiments in Southeast Asia, the work is extremely important, helping to save significant resources and computation time. planning future climate change for the entire region. Initial research results are positive, but things have not stopped. Assoc.Prof.Dr. Ngo Duc Thanh said that, along with the results obtained, many big questions were re-opened: What is the cause of the difference in rainfall increase and decrease in different regions of the region? How do changes in the rain temperature regime affect extreme phenomena such as floods, droughts, hot weather …? However, the thing that Assoc. Ngo Duc Thanh feels most confident and confident that it is the handshake association of international scientists. Never before has the inter-country cooperation in the field been so extremely challenging as meteorology and climate change have been so closely coordinated. Talking more about the success of the project, Assoc.Prof.Dr. Thanh said: This is not only an honor for each individual scientist but also an opportunity for the field of meteorology / climate to be “quietly” and Picky learners, workers get more attention from society. Concerned about this field has not been concerned by many people, he expressed: There are very few young people interested in studying this field because this is also a challenging issue. “In recent years, each course has only recruited very few students, leading to this industry often scored relatively low, while the industry is in need of people who are good at math, physics and computer science.” In addition, during his work, he witnessed “inflows of people coming and going” in a number of hydro-meteorological research units, partly due to working conditions and inadequate income. living did not attract them. “We need the push to create a team of high-quality meteorologists that can be dedicated and passionate about the industry. That way can meet the needs of the society, solving practical and urgent problems such as forecasting natural disasters or researching climate change ”, Assoc.Prof.Dr. Thanh shared. /. The Ta Quang Buu Award is awarded annually by the Ministry of Science and Technology to honor scientists who have outstanding achievements in basic research in the fields of natural sciences and engineering. In 2021, together with TS. Bui Minh Tuan, Assoc. TS. Ngo Duc Thanh, a famous meteorologist was nominated for the “Main Award” category of this award. The Awards Ceremony is expected to be held on May 18 – Vietnam Science and Technology Day.

In particular, the number of attacks on Vietnamese enterprises fell sharply, from 536.6 thousand cases in 2019, to 204.7 thousand cases in 2020. This pulled Vietnam’s ranking to 11 worldwide. , improved from the 7th place in 2019. In Southeast Asia, Singapore remains the country with the least number of detected attacks, ranking 78 globally. However, out of six Southeast Asian countries, Singapore is the only one experiencing an increase in the number of ransomware infection attempts. Number of detected cases increased from 2,275 in 2019 to 3,191 in 2020. Number of attacks on SMEs detected by Kaspersky in Southeast Asian countries. Although Indonesia still ranks 5th globally in terms of the number of ransomware incidents detected, the country has dropped from 1,158,837 cases in 2019 to 439,473 cases in 2020. This downtrend also coincides with export. currently in other countries in the region including the Philippines, Malaysia and Thailand. China remains at the top of the list for the number of ransomware cases globally in both 2019 and 2020. Meanwhile, Brazil and Russia have swapped the 2nd and 3rd place in the rankings, with Brazil currently ranked 2nd by 2020. Ransomware is designed to infect organizations and individuals’ computers, encrypt the internal data and block access to the computer. The attackers will then request a fee from the victim in exchange for re-activation of the system. Ransomware attacks may be on the decline, but Kaspersky has been warning businesses of all sizes in every sector about the growing activity of ‘Ransomware 2.0’, also known as software. targeted extortion. In the new method, the criminals do not ask for ransom to unlock the data, they threaten to publicly disclose the data they hold, adding pressure to the victims to pay the ransom to protect their reputation. .

There are obvious differences in fares for rail and trams in Southeast Asian countries and many European countries.

How is the fare of the train tickets of countries?

Singapore Urban Railway consists of two train systems, the rapid-run MRT, for the main transport links and the LRT for short-distance travel. However, Singaporeans often refer to these two systems collectively as the MRT.

Singapore MRT was inaugurated and operated the first line in 1987, now becoming the second most popular means of transportation in the lion island nation, only after buses. This system is serving more than 3 billion passengers per year and is still being upgraded and expanded.

MRT fares in Singapore are quite cheap. For adults, the price will depend on the length of the trip, falling in the range of 0.42 USD-1.67 USD (9,000 VND – 38,000 VND).
