The U.S, Britain and South Korea warned of a global cyber espionage campaign. This campaign is being conducted by North Korean hackers. Reportedly, the hackers are attempting to steal classified military secrets to support Pyongyang’s banned nuclear weapons programme. Joint notice from US, UK and S. Korea warned that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea was using state-backed attackers. This was done to further the regime’s military and nuclear ambitions#northkorea #hacker #us

China’s electric vehicle market is struggling with overproduction and difficulty selling cars. In response, Chinese manufacturers are trying to increase exports to address the issue. However, data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers on July 10 shows that China exported 86,000 electric vehicles in June, a 13.2% drop from the previous month. This marks the third consecutive month of declining exports since March. This trend indicates growing resistance in Europe, which has significantly raised import tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles.#chinaobserver

#chinainsights Recently, we saw on Douyin many incidents where many businesses fled with customers’ advance money, right? This is the reality in our industry. 40% of the stores and factories are on the verge of closure and bankruptcy, and 60% of the factories have no work to do. So, please keep an eye on your money and avoid being cheated of both money and goods.

On July 3, someone on social media revealed that Hangzhou East Railway Station, once touted as one of Asia’s largest high-speed rail stations, has experienced platform subsidence just 11 years after its opening. The platform has sunk to the point where there is a 30-centimeter gap between the train and the platform, forcing passengers to “jump down” from the train, risking falls if they’re not careful. Images show a stark contrast in the height difference between the platform and the train compared to 2018.#chinaobserver

Is Beijing escalating South China Sea territorial claims with areas claimed by Vietnam in the same way as with the Philippines, except that Hanoi chooses to keep the incidents off the international radar? At the beginning of July, China appeared to be holding a rare twin carrier exercise in the South China Sea with the Shandong aircraft carrier and at least eight warships, according to satellite imagery. They were also spotted about 50 miles northeast of Woody Island in the Paracels, an archipelago previously held in part by Vietnam until China seized all in a naval battle in 1974. Taiwan also claims the territory. China’s “monster” coast guard ship has several times this year patrolled Vietnam’s oil fields in the Spratlys, most recently in June. And in March, Beijing redrew its coastal baseline in the Gulf of Tonkin between Vietnam and China, a move that breaks with an agreement reached by Hanoi and Beijing in 2000. How is Vietnam handling these moves by China and will it take a stronger stance toward its more powerful neighbor? We also take a look at cooperation between Vietnam and the Philippines and whether the two South China Sea claimants can stand together against Beijing’s increasingly assertive behavior.

Remember those huge quarantine facilities China built? Well, they no longer need them and have started to tear them down. The material used to build them is being broken down and sold for scrap. This is such a waste and terrible for the environment. China is definitely not the leader in green initiatives!

On June 20, China’s Military Commission issued a document titled “Measures on Insisting on Struggling Hardly and Building the Army Diligently and Thriftily to Improve the Quality and Efficiency of Army Construction.” It mentions that “the mindset of living on a tight budget is to be maintained, and careful budgeting is to be done” and that the military needs to improve “the effectiveness of the military system and the efficiency of making use of national defense resources.” What does this mean?

Another subway collapse in China! Hopefully nobody was injured.

China has employed a new tactic in its legal war against Taiwan.

Can you believe it? China’s most advanced VT4 tank has turned out to be such a disappointment on the international market that even Nigeria was seriously let down. In 2019, Nigeria made a significant purchase of 35 VT4 main battle tanks from China. Sounds impressive, right? These tanks, touted as “3.5 generation” advanced tanks, failed to fire during military exercises, leaving Nigerian generals wide-eyed in disbelief. If it takes half an hour to fire a single shell in real combat, the enemy would have likely turned us into barbecue by then.Nigeria’s military leadership was frustrated with the situation. The expensive “god tank” they bought turned out to be a flop. Within less than two years, numerous issues emerged, forcing Nigeria to seek alternatives, eventually turning to Russia’s T-90 tanks.#chinaobserver

If this were true, China’s stealth bombers should have already been deployed, but they remain unseen. This clearly indicates that China’s stealth coatings are far from effective.During the Sino-Indian border dispute, two J-20 fighter jets, which are claimed to have stealth capabilities, were flying near the China-India border. However, they were easily tracked by India’s Su-30MKI, showing that the stealth coating was hardly effective.#chinaobserver

This is really disturbing!

U.S. public pensions have poured over $60 billion into China. But some states are rolling out laws to buck the trend. Some Chinese companies are putting on American shells after U.S. regulators accused them of aiding Beijing. Experts say one goal is to keep their U.S. operations running, while some say that allowing them to exposes loopholes in U.S. enforcement. Top officials warn more sanctions on China are coming from both the United States and NATO, as concerns loom over China’s support for Russia’s wa
