I Live in HK EP13 | Welcome to Irfan's caravanserai: Where the Silk Road still lives on—in Hong Kong Born in Turkey's ancient Silk Road region of Cappadocia, Irfan Karabulut grew up believing the Silk Road was more than history—it was part of his identity. Today, in Hong Kong, he has found a new way to keep that spirit alive, turning a centuries-old tradition of welcoming travellers into breakfast gatherings that bring strangers together. This is the story of how one man's lifelong journey along the Silk Road led him to call Hong Kong home.

Opinion | China's green resolve is its strongest shield when the oil routes close

Opinion | China's green resolve is its strongest shield when the oil routes close When the Strait of Hormuz turned turbulent earlier this year and the arteries of the global oil trade were constricted, economies dependent on imported crude were thrown into visible anxiety. China, by contrast, has faced what the International Energy Agency has described as the most severe supply disruption in history with striking composure. In my view, that composure is no accident of fortune. It is the logical outcome of more than two decades of determined electrification and energy transition.

Opinion | Knowledge is hard currency: Academic strength will underwrite HK's long-term prosperity The QS World University Rankings 2027, released on 18 June, 2026, brought a cascade of good news for Hong Kong's higher education sector. Five of the city's universities held firm in the global top 100. University rankings are not vanity trophies to be hung on a wall and admired; they are a concrete measure of a city's competitiveness, watched closely by students, parents, employers and investors the world over. Academic strength is the engine of the knowledge economy, and its contribution to Hong Kong's future manifests in at least four dimensions.

Opinion | Japan's 2026 defense white paper: Washington's proxy project in the Indo-Pacific On August 4, Japan's Ministry of Defense released its 2026 Defense White Paper. At nearly 600 pages, it is the longest edition ever published. Far from a routine security update, the document marks another deliberate step in Japan's transformation from a postwar pacifist state into a heavily armed forward base serving American containment strategy against China. What is presented as "defense" is in reality the systematic dismantling of remaining postwar restraints and the deeper integration of Japan into a U.S.-led military architecture aimed at containing China's rise.

Journalist's View | There's no such thing as a 'Caotai Team' — It's just another way to encourage innovation On May 25, Chinese novelist Yu Hua posted a short video on social media titled "What Is a Caotai Team?"

Journalist's View | Five observations from the Hong Kong Sevens at 50 Marking its 50th anniversary, the Hong Kong Sevens once again proved it is far more than a rugby tournament.
