China-South Asia Expo to bolster regional cooperation

 

The 8th China-South Asia Exposition is being held from July 23 to 28 in Kunming, capital of Yunnan province. 

BEIJING — The 8th China-South Asia Exposition, which opened on Tuesday and will close on Sunday in Kunming, capital of Southwest China's Yunnan province, is jointly hosted by the Ministry of Commerce and the Yunnan provincial government.

It is one of the most important events for economic and trade exchanges between China and South Asian nations this year, said Vice-Minister of Commerce Li Fei at a news conference in Beijing on July 9.

The expo was first held in Kunming in 2013, the year when China first put forward the Belt and Road Initiative. Li said that over the past 11 years, China and South Asian countries have deepened practical cooperation in various fields, and maintained a sound momentum of development in economic and trade exchanges, delivering benefits to all people involved.

The expo features industries with great potential for cooperation with South Asian countries, including green energy, modern agriculture, medical care as well as culture and tourism, Liu Yong, vice-governor of Yunnan, said at the news conference.

In terms of exhibitor registration, nearly 2,000 companies have registered to participate in the exhibition, of which nearly half are overseas companies, covering all countries in South Asia and Southeast Asia, according to Yang Mu, head of the Department of Commerce of Yunnan.

To accommodate the exhibition needs of enterprises from South Asian nations, an additional South Asia pavilion will be set up at this year's expo, Yang said, adding that organizers have also invited over 2,300 buyers to facilitate business deals at the exhibition.

This year's expo also features a pavilion for the coffee industry, which highlights Yunnan's reputation as China's leading coffee producer, Yang said.

Chinese research team creates tiny, wireless brain sensor

Image
  Chinese researchers have developed a sesame seed-sized, biodegradable and wireless brain sensor that could potentially transform the way brain conditions are monitored in patients with head injuries or tumors. The conventional method used to measure intracranial pressure, temperature and other brain health barometers is inserting a wired sensor into the brain. Implantation and removal of the device require surgery, and openings left in the skin during monitoring increase the risk of infection. To address these problems, researchers at Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan, Hubei province, along with those from Tong Ji Hospital in the city and Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, created a cubeshaped wireless sensor measuring 2 millimeters on each side. The tiny tube can be injected under the skull through a needle and operated through an external ultrasound probe, eliminating the need for invasive operations and preventing infections. Because the implant is

On Monday morning, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for the first time delivered four college admission letters issued by the South China University of Technology to the hands of four students in the Chinese city of Guangzhou. The drone trip took about 30 minutes, covering 25 km, forming a new scenario for China's UAV application. "I was amazed to see my admission letter sent by a drone. It was like a movie scene coming to real life," said Wang. Guangzhou Post, the drone operator, has been delivering college admission letters for over 40 years, handling about 550,000 letters annually. "In the future, more students can experience technological advancement with their

Humanoid robot industry gains momentum, boosting China's economy

SHENZHEN - In an automotive factory, silver humanoid robots stride along assembly lines, conducting tasks once performed exclusively by humans -- from car scanning to seatbelt inspection and affixing labels onto vehicles. This is not a scene from a sci-fi movie, but a collaboration between UBTECH, a Shenzhen-based robotics firm, and Chinese electric carmaker NIO, highlighting the rapid advancement in China's humanoid robot industry. As competition intensifies among manufacturers, humanoid robots are increasingly being integrated into various sectors, with industrial applications leading the charge. Earlier this month, UBTECH announced it would work with FAW-Volkswagen, one of China's earliest joint venture automakers, to develop an unmanned car factory. This initiative aims to deploy UBTECH's industrial humanoid robot, Walker S, at FAW-Volkswagen's plant in East
