Cleaner, smarter, big data: the PLA’s bet on ‘sunshine’ military recruitment

The Chinese military is mining big data to get better recruits and stamp out corruption in the march towards its centenary next year. As part of an overhaul called “end-to-end sunshine” recruitment, the People’s Liberation Army has been commanded to use data-driven systems across the the enlistment process to build a military “focused on war readiness”. The orders came this month from the general offices of the Central Military Commission and State Council and mark a renewed push to eradicate...

Don’t take Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s ‘sex’ scandal at face value

Don’t take Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s ‘sex’ scandal at face value

“I thought spooks were supposed to be stealthy,” the uncouth, flatulent anti-hero Jackson Lamb complains in the hit British spy series Slow Horses as an annoying underling loudly enters his rundown office building, known to fans as Slough House. I have no idea if Alice Huang, the alleged love interest of billionaire Jensen Huang – who resigned as Nvidia CEO on Thursday – is really a Chinese Mata Hari. My own knowledge of espionage is confined to reading John le Carre and Robert Ludlum, and...

Why Japanese DJ who survived spiked-drink ordeal in Hong Kong keeps apologising

When Mao Hamasaki, also known as DJ Mao, took to the social media platform X earlier this month to recount the ordeal of consuming a spiked drink in Hong Kong, her comments were accompanied by an apology, leaving many local social media users perplexed. “They said, ‘You are the victim, why do you keep apologising and taking the blame’, making it sound like I’m putting the fault on myself. But that is honestly just how we [Japanese] talk,” she said. “People in Hong Kong are much more direct. They...

China holds 80% of world’s underwater data centre patents as computing energy demands grow

China owns 80 per cent of the world’s underwater data centre patents, giving it a decisive lead in critical technologies, according to a two-decade study of global patents in the field. The findings reveal a shift away from the West in the race to build future green computing infrastructure, as China transforms from an early follower into the dominant force in subsea data technologies. “China holds competitive edges in engineering-oriented technologies such as modular construction and in situ...

Fishing on a Single Breath

Fishing on a Single Breath

Modern fishing technology continues to advance. But on the island Zhaoshu Dao, fishermen Feng Jiahui and Xu Mingwen still practice an age-old skill: diving into the reefs on a single breath. Learned through years of experience and passed down through generations, this traditional way of fishing is becoming increasingly rare. How long can it survive?

The Sea We Call Home — Part Three: Dive Deep into the Reef

No air tanks. Just one breath. On the island Zhaoshu Dao, fishermen Feng Jiahui and Xu Mingwen dive six or seven meters into the reefs to find their catch. It is a skill learned through years of practice and passed down through generations. But fish are becoming harder to find, and fewer young people are choosing to learn the traditional method. What happens to a way of life when the next generation moves on?

Midterm losses could give Trump a quest to emerge from Apec summit as a winner

When G7 leaders gathered at the French resort of Evian-les-Bains in June, Donald Trump arrived late but wasted no time in grabbing the spotlight. With a cheeky declaration, “I am the boss”, the US president drew a ripple of awkward laughter from around the table. Months earlier, in his September 2025 address to the UN General Assembly, he told the gathering that “your countries are going to hell”. His lengthy speech blended boasts about his own record with sharp criticism of allies’ policies,...
