El primer día de 2021, a las 10 a.m., un equipo de voluntarios compuesto por escritores, artistas, miembros de la Liga de la Juventud Comunista y ciudadanos comunes acudió al Puente Zhanqiao (uno de los destinos turísticos más buscados en Qingdao) para distribuir unas cajas misteriosas a los transeúntes. La ceremonia de lanzamiento del programa que habían planeado realizar allí, se canceló debido a las precauciones contra el COVID-19. Sin embargo, esto hizo que la entrega de estos regalos fuera más sorprendente.

«El regalo es tan exquisito y creativo. Me ha conmovido la sincera bienvenida de la ciudad», dijo la señorita Wang de Shenzhen.

También expresaron su gratitud y bendiciones a la ciudad cinco jóvenes de Tai’an y Liaocheng de la provincia de Shandong, Datong de la provincia de Shanxi, Liangshan de la provincia de Sichuan y Chaohu de la provincia de Anhui, que vinieron a estudiar en universidades de Qingdao después de pasar el examen nacional de ingreso a la universidad de 2020.

Se sabe que el programa atrajo a 100 escritores, artistas, curadores de exposición y estrellas de cine, nativos de Qingdao, a grabar videos cortos como patrocinadores de la ciudad. En sus videos, sostienen las cajas de regalo azules en las manos para presentar el programa a los espectadores.

Los receptores pueden encontrar diferentes obsequios en las cajas misteriosas. Puede ser un libro sobre la cultura y las costumbres populares de la ciudad, un boleto para un museo local o una hermosa postal diseñada en base a la obra grabada en madera, titulada My Qingdao, creada por Jiang Yongjie, artista oriundo de Qingdao, especialmente para el programa. Además, cada uno de ellos podría obtener una manzana Hongri, una especie típica de Baoshan (Qingdao).

Qingdao, una ciudad en pleno desarrollo, preparará más obsequios especiales para darles más sorpresas tanto a los ciudadanos locales como a los invitados procedentes de otros lugares del país y del mundo.

On the first day of 2021, at 10am, a volunteer team consisting of writers, artists, Communist Youth League members and ordinary citizens walked onto the Trestle Bridge (one of the most sought-after tourist destinations in Qingdao) to distribute the mystery boxes to the passersby. The program’s launching ceremony was originally scheduled to take place there, but was canceled due to the precautions against COVID-19. However, this made the gift-giving more surprising.

«I’ve received gifts from my family, lover and friends, but it was the first time that I received a gift from a city. What’s a special love confession!» said a young tourist from Shanghai.

«The gift is so exquisite and creative. I’ve been moved by the city’s sincere welcome,» said Miss Wang from Shenzhen.

Five young people from Shandong province’s Tai’an and Liaocheng, Shanxi province’s Datong, Sichuan province’s Liangshan and Anhui province’s Chaohu, who entered a university in Qingdao after the 2020 national college entrance exam, also expressed their gratitude and blessings for the city.

It is learnt that the program attracted 100 Qingdao-native writers, artists, exhibition planners and movie stars who are living in and outside Qingdao to make short videos as endorsers for the city. In their videos, they hold the «blue gift box» in their hands to introduce the program to the viewers.

Different recipients could find different gifts in the mystery boxes they got. It might be a book about the city’s culture and folk customs, a ticket for a local museum, or a beautiful postcard designed based on the wood engraving picture titled «My Qingdao» created by Qingdao-born artist Jiang Yongjie for the program. Besides, each of them could get a Red Run apple, a specialty of Qingdao’s Baoshan Town.

It is reported that the «Gift from Qingdao» program is expected to become an annual campaign in Qingdao in the future. The city in robust development will prepare more gifts to give more surprises to both local citizens and guests from other places.

Luna Global Networks Applauds Congress Enacting Law to End Anonymous Companies Undermining National Security

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Luna Global Networks applauds Congress overriding the President’s veto on the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for FY 2021. On Jan. 1, the US Senate overrode the President’s veto on the NDAA. This historic anti-corruption legislation ending anonymous companies in the United States passed by both Chambers of Congress is now law.

Illicit trade, which includes a convergence of…

Illicit trade, which includes a convergence of numerous trafficking, smuggling, financial and cyber crimes, fuels a multi-trillion-dollar illegal economy globally every year. While the COVID-19 pandemic has brought economic malaise to most sectors, the illicit economy is booming. This is especially true across e-commerce marketplaces that are generating tremendous prosperity for scammers, fraudsters, kleptocrats, organized criminals, terrorists, and other threat networks.

Fortunately, the newly-enacted law will attack a critical vulnerability of this illicit economy: anonymous shell companies. This will level the playing field for many legitimate businesses and industries across the country that get harmed, for example, by counterfeiters and online criminals. Included as part of the NDAA — which President Trump had inexplicably vetoed — is the Corporate Transparency Act, which will modernize our nation’s anti-money laundering rules and help law enforcement identify the true, or «beneficial» owner of a company at the time of its formation. Such data will help US officials fight corruption, organized crime, and terrorism.

«Through the use of anonymous shell companies, criminals have avoided detection in ways that have financed other threats and harmed American consumers, including through the sale and trafficking of counterfeit medicines from India and China worth hundreds of millions of dollars including those used to treat breast cancer, cholesterol, high blood pressure, and other serious health conditions; knock-off parts across the Pentagon’s supply chains that have cost the US military tens of millions of dollars and put our soldiers at risk; and other contraband that finance insecurity that undermines US foreign policy and national security interests,» said David M. Luna, CEO & President of LGN.

Terrorist groups also manipulate anonymous shell companies to finance their infrastructure, operations, and campaigns of terror in the US and internationally. Oligarchs do as well, including those aligned with adversarial countries that are conducting massive cyberattacks against our government and private sector as reported in recent weeks.

Congressional leadership in overriding the president’s veto and enacting this important legislation into law helps to not only protect our businesses and keep consumers safe and healthy, but will also give our law enforcement agencies the authorities and tools needed to protect our homeland, markets, and communities against determined bad actors and threat networks.

David M. Luna, former US diplomat and national security official, is President and CEO of Luna Global Networks & Convergence Strategies LLC.

Semiconductor Industry Applauds NDAA Enactment, Urges Full Funding for Semiconductor Manufacturing and Research Provisions

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) today applauded Congress for enacting the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), legislation that includes Title XCIX, «Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors for America,» which authorizes federal incentives to promote semiconductor manufacturing and federal investments in semiconductor research. SIA represents 98 percent of the U.S. semiconductor industry by revenue and nearly two-thirds of…

«Enactment of the NDAA will help propel U.S. economic growth and cement America’s position at the forefront of semiconductor innovation, which is critical to the game-changing technologies of today and the future,» said Bob Bruggeworth, President, CEO, and Director of Qorvo and SIA Chair. «The next step is for leaders in Washington to fully fund the NDAA’s domestic chip manufacturing incentives and research initiatives. Doing so will make America one of the world’s most attractive places to produce this foundational technology.»

The provisions authorized by the NDAA must still be funded through appropriations made by Congress. SIA and the Boston Consulting Group released a study in September finding robust federal incentives for domestic semiconductor manufacturing would reverse the decades-long trajectory of declining chip production in America and create as many as 19 major semiconductor manufacturing facilities, or fabs, and 70,000 high-paying jobs in the U.S. over the next 10 years. A separate SIA report released in June found federal funding for semiconductor research generates an outstanding return on investment for taxpayers, with each additional dollar invested adding $16.50 to U.S. gross domestic product.

«The semiconductor provisions in the NDAA will strengthen the U.S. economy, our national security, and our leadership in chips and the many technologies they enable,» said John Neuffer, SIA president and CEO. «We applaud the leadership and dedication of the provisions’ champions in Congress, a bipartisan group led by Sens. Cornyn, Warner, Cotton, and Schumer in the Senate and Reps. Matsui and McCaul in the House. Now it’s critical for leaders in Washington to put these provisions into action by fully funding them, and we stand ready to work with policymakers to make that a reality.»

CGTN: Después de un 2020 «extraordinario», ¿cuáles son las expectativas de Xi Jinping para 2021?

PEKÍN, 1 de enero de 2021 /PRNewswire/– 2021 está tocando a la puerta: un año que marca el inicio del nuevo Plan Quinquenal de China y el centésimo aniversario de la fundación del Partido Comunista de China (CPC).

<p title="El presidente chino Xi Jinping pronuncia el…

¿Cuáles son las expectativas del presidente chino Xi Jinping para 2021, especialmente después de los logros que tan duramente consiguió su país en 2020?

Se puede encontrar indicios en su discurso de Año Nuevo.

2021: «Esforzarse es el único camino para avanzar»

China entrará en una nueva etapa de desarrollo para construir un país socialista moderno de manera integral en 2021, ya que los líderes del CPC han adoptado propuestas para formular el 14º Plan Quinquenal y los objetivos a largo plazo.

«El camino que tenemos por delante es largo; esforzarse es el único camino para avanzar», afirmó Xi en su discurso, en el que pidió que se establezca un nuevo patrón para acelerar el desarrollo, con la plena implementación de un desarrollo de alta calidad, a la vez que se busca profundizar aún más la reforma y ampliar la apertura.

Al superar la prueba del virus, los principales líderes de China establecieron las prioridades económicas para 2021 en la Conferencia central de trabajo económico celebrada en diciembre, que destacó que China mantendrá sus macropolíticas consistentes, estables y sostenibles en el 2021, con una implementación continua de una política fiscal proactiva y una política monetaria prudente.

En 2021, el país dará un firme primer paso hacia la construcción del nuevo paradigma de desarrollo en el que el mercado tanto nacional como extranjero se refuerzan mutuamente, a la vez que el mercado interno se mantiene como un pilar fundamental.

Mientras tanto, el presidente destacó la necesidad de seguir trabajando arduamente para promover la vitalización rural, ya que el país ha logrado un éxito decisivo en la erradicación de la pobreza extrema en 2020.

En los próximos cinco años, se realizarán esfuerzos para consolidar los logros en la lucha contra la pobreza y promover plenamente la estrategia de vitalización rural, de acuerdo con los principales objetivos de desarrollo social y económico propuestos por el Comité Central del CPC para el 14° Plan Quinquenal (2021-2025).

Más información:
China está decidida a terminar con la pobreza absoluta en el 2020, ¿cuál es el próximo paso?

Xi señaló en muchas ocasiones que mantener el liderazgo del partido es la garantía más fundamental para alcanzar todos estos objetivos.

En su discurso de Año Nuevo, Xi describió al partido como una nave gigantesca que conduce a China hacia adelante de manera constante al alero de las expectativas de la gente y la esperanza de la nación, y destacó la importancia de «la aspiración original».

El CPC fue fundado con una aspiración original: la misión de buscar la felicidad para el pueblo chino y el rejuvenecimiento para la nación, y ha mantenido su compromiso con la filosofía de desarrollo centrada en el pueblo.

Xi indicó que la aspiración original del CPC es aún más firme 100 años después.

2020: «Extraordinario» en varias áreas

Al mirar el año 2020, el presidente describió el año como una «obra épica contra la pandemia» y dedicó gran parte de su discurso a destacar la guerra de todo el pueblo chino contra la COVID-19.

«La grandeza se forja en lo ordinario. Los héroes provienen del pueblo. ¡Cada persona es notable!», señaló Jinping antes de expresar su apoyo a todos los infectados por el coronavirus.

En septiembre, tres destacados profesionales del área médica recibieron el título honorario nacional de «Héroe del Pueblo», mientras que un total de 1.499 personas, 500 grupos, 186 miembros del CPC y 150 organizaciones de nivel primario del partido recibieron elogios por su labor en la lucha contra la epidemia, a la vez que otros 14 miembros del partido fueron premiados de manera póstuma.

Recordando a los profesionales médicos que hemos perdido por el coronavirus

Mientras tanto, China ha participado activamente en varias reuniones mundiales para proporcionar a la comunidad internacional soluciones y experiencias, como la cumbre virtual del G20 acerca de la COVID-19, la cumbre de la Asociación de Naciones del Sureste Asiático (ASEAN), con China, Japón y Corea del Sur (ASEAN más tres o APT) sobre la COVID-19, y una reunión especial de ministros de Asuntos Exteriores de ASEAN y China sobre el brote.

El presidente Xi también analizó los logros de China en varias áreas.

China es la primera economía del mundo en lograr un crecimiento positivo en 2020, y se espera que su PIB alcance un nuevo nivel de 100 billones de yuanes. Según el presidente, China ha visto una buena cosecha en la producción de grano durante 17 años consecutivos.

En ocho años, bajo el actual estándar, China ha erradicado la pobreza extrema para los casi 100 millones de personas afectadas que viven en las zonas rurales, y los 832 condados empobrecidos han salido de la pobreza, agregó.

China ha logrado avances importantes en exploraciones científicas, como la misión a Marte Tianwen-1, la sonda lunar Chang’e-5, y el sumergible tripulado en aguas profundas Fendouzhe. Jinping afirmó que la construcción del Puerto de Libre Comercio de Hainan está avanzando vigorosamente.

El presidente también evocó los inolvidables recuerdos de 2020, incluidas sus inspecciones de 13 regiones a nivel provincial, el cuadragésimo aniversario de la Zona Económica Especial de Shenzhen y sus llamadas telefónicas con amigos de la comunidad internacional para combatir la pandemia.

Boeing Delivers Trio of 777 Freighters to Qatar Airways Cargo

EVERETT, Wash., Jan. 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Qatar Airways Cargo took delivery of three Boeing [NYSE:BA] 777 Freighters as the airline continues to build its cargo division with the world’s largest and most capable twin-engine freighter. The milestone also marks the 200^th 777 Freighter to be delivered.

The triple delivery comes as air freight is playing a pivotal role amid the COVID-19 pandemic – including transporting newly approved vaccines – and is projected to increase more…

The triple delivery comes as air freight is playing a pivotal role amid the COVID-19 pandemic – including transporting newly approved vaccines – and is projected to increase more than 4% over the next two decades.

With the arrival of the trio of 777 Freighters, Qatar Airways Cargo now operates 24 of this airplane model along with two 747-8 Freighters. As one of the leading air cargo carriers in the world, Qatar’s dedicated freighter fleet serves more than 60 freighter destinations worldwide via its world-class Doha hub and also delivers freight on the belly-hold deck of passenger aircraft to an extensive network.

«With the arrival of these new freighters, we are injecting more capacity in the market which is very much required during the pandemic. The added capacity will also enable us to support the logistics around the COVID-19 vaccination, which is projected to be one of the greatest logistical challenges for the industry,» said Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker. «With our investments in innovation and fleet, we are able to fulfill our customers’ logistical requirements and facilitate the continuity of global trade.»

The 777 Freighter can fly 4,970 nautical miles (9,200 kms) and carry a payload of 224,900 pounds (102,010 kg). The airplane’s long range translates into significant savings for operators like Qatar Airways Cargo as fewer stops reduce landing fees, congestion, cargo handling costs and delivery times.

«During these challenging times, Qatar Airways Cargo has been transporting humanitarian relief and medical goods to those in need, and we are proud that their growing fleet of 777 Freighters is supporting such a commendable effort,» said Ihssane Mounir, senior vice president, Commercial Sales and Marketing, The Boeing Company. «We deeply appreciate our long-standing partnership with Qatar Airways and their confidence in the 777 Freighters as the backbone of their expansive global air cargo operations.»

The 777 Freighter is now Boeing’s top selling freighter. Customers from around the world have ordered 242 777 Freighters since the program began in 2005, including a record 45 units in 2018. Boeing, the market leader in air cargo aircraft, provides more than 90% of the dedicated freighter capacity around the world, including new production and converted freighters.
