My brother sent this to me 😆
He thinks I would look fantastic as an elderly #Chinese man/sifu 🤣😂

My opinion - Foreign media in countries like #Australia, where this piece ran, shouldn't publish #Chinese government op-eds unless #China's state media publishes foreign diplomat op-eds.
#Reciprocity is a basic tenet of #diplomacy and should be enforced in the #digital and #media spaces.
I noticed this ownership seal said "university" so I was like "oh, I wonder which Chinese university this could be, let me look it up"
... Harvard. It says it's from the Harvard University Library. They have an official Chinese seal for stamping their Chinese manuscripts

I'm half-Chinese; specifically, my mom is from Hong Kong. Obviously, my child has this heritage as well. I'd like her to have some connection to Hong Kong and its culture. Do you have any recommendations?
For numerous reasons it is hard to spend time with my mom and ask her directly; my Chinese family doesn't live nearby. Off the top of my head the main practices I can hand down are food, like miso soup and wontons, and utensils, like chopsticks and ceramic soup spoons.

Isn't the 130 billion in the Russian Sovereign Wealth Fund just a debt owed to Ukraine because of the damage the russian invasion has inflicted on Ukraine? The EU is functioning as a jury and has found Russia owes this money as restitution to Ukraine. When a criminal, whether an individual or a nation, commits a crime - holding them accountable is not theft but justice. The EU is a great ally of Ukraine, but it is time for the perpetrator, not the EU, to pay. #Ukraine
@JeffreySmith @noelreports the point is, and I'm not saying I would make the same judgement, that belgium fears it may become more costly for Europe when losing trust on the international market. Consider you're a #chinese big company: do you invest your billions in #EU, knowing that your money may be confiscated when your government decides to invade Taiwan? This is the complication, which is significant. I'm happy I don't have to decide.
@thejapantimes
The #Taiwan_Strait itself is not "sensitive." It's the fragile #Chinese 🇨🇳 that are sensitive.
📦 This is not only via #Amazon, it's common practice, many many packages from #China I have checked are mislabeled either in content or price.
Has anyone else ever noticed that? If so from where did you order? Please let me know below ⬇️

Japan does not have an “immigrant” problem in the usual sense, as long-term foreign residents are largely law-abiding, integrated and the challenges lie with systemic issues, not with the people themselves. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2025/11/18/japan/avoid-xenophobia-tag-when-fixing-immigration/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #japan #sanaetakaichi #minorukihara #liberaldemocraticparty #japaninnovationparty #us #chinese #korean #xenophobia

China tested a new unmanned helicopter, the T1400. The helicopter is versatile and can change the capabilities of the entire global low-altitude flight industry.
What is known about its characteristics:
- flight time - 8 hours
- maximum payload - 650 kg
- ceiling - 6,500 meters
- operates at temperatures from -40°C to 55°C
https://global.chinadaily.com.cn/a/202511/02/WS6906ff36a310f215074b87b9.html
Noteworthy that the #Americans didn't have enough sense to "change the capabilities of the entire global low-altitude flight industry" by installing a remote control on their numerous versionS during the 64 YEARS that they have been manufacturing this "new" #Chinese design.
🤔😀
They have a version with global range and 15X the maximum payload of that #China RC model.🚁
