Opinion | How MAGA become TikTok's unlikely ally

Many people will remember that back in 2020, the Trump administration attempted to ban viral social media application TikTok via an executive order. The botched effort to force its sale failed after it was countered by a legal challenge, yet as we see with the recent congressional bill this has hardly settled the mass hysteria and unsubstantiated paranoia pertaining to the platform.

Opinion | Improving recycling support to realize green living style

The Financial Secretary pointed out in his Budget Speech recently that green development is the "base color" of high-quality development.

In particular, it has ignored the problem of insufficient recycling support, which has been emphasized by various sectors of the community.

The TikTok Merry Go Round is back. Republican politicians have never quite got past their mass hysteria over the viral Chinese social media application and their demented obsession with banning it.

Opinion | Come on, Ambassador Burns, take a Viagara or two

I am getting worried about your health. You never seemed to smile. Since coming to China as US ambassador, you have been wearing a permanent scowl. From time to time, you spout fantastical theories about the China Threat. Only the other day, you swore that the US would never accept living in a world dominated by China, with its Chinese values. China dominating and ideologically brainwashing the world? You are living in Alice's Wonderland. China is no monster, and the US is no saint.
