After 20 years, the advantage of the marine economy has become the leading power-Zhejiang’s practice of prospering to the sea

  Hangzhou, Nov. 24 (Xinhuanet)-The length of coastline ranks first in China, and the number of islands ranks first in China. This is the natural advantage given to Zhejiang by the ocean, and it also makes the concept of coordinating land and sea and developing marine economy deeply rooted in Zhijiang.

  The vast East China Sea stands bravely at the head of the tide.

  "Give full play to the advantages of Zhejiang’s mountain and sea resources, vigorously develop the marine economy, promote the leap-forward development of underdeveloped areas, and strive to make the development of marine economy and underdeveloped areas a new growth point of Zhejiang’s economy", which is one of the important contents of the "Eighth Five-Year Strategy" made by the Fourth Plenary Session of the Eleventh Zhejiang Provincial Committee in July 2003. The Zhejiang Ocean Economic Work Conference held in August of the same year officially kicked off Zhejiang’s accelerated construction of a strong marine economy province.

  In the past 20 years, Zhejiang has anchored its goals, pursued the road of high-quality development of marine economy, and formed a good pattern of marine economic development with the construction of a world-class marine port as the guide, the construction of a modern marine industrial system as the driving force, and the strengthening of marine science and education and the construction of ecological civilization as the support.

  Prosperous to the sea, the blue channel expands its opening up.

  More than 1000 years ago, porcelain produced in Longquan, Zhejiang Province was at an important node of the Maritime Silk Road — — Wenzhou Shuomen ancient port changed ships to go to sea and go to the world; Nowadays, Brazilian iron ore, Australian wheat, Argentine corn, Yiwu small commodities and Ningbo mechanical and electrical products all meet in Zhoushan Port, Ningbo. At the side of the huge ship full of imported and exported goods in the middle of the night, steel machines and workers have a tacit understanding.

  The port is the hub connecting land and sea, and a series of blue passages on the sea have become the new growth pole of Zhejiang, a small province with land resources. The cargo ships, trucks and busy cranes coming and going show the pulse and surging power of the economy. In 2022, the cargo throughput of Zhoushan Port in Ningbo exceeded 1.25 billion tons, ranking first in the world for 14 consecutive years; The container throughput reached 33.35 million TEUs, ranking third in the world.

  Relying on the port and dock logistics, Zhoushan has established a large-scale grain and oil industrial base integrating various service functions such as bulk grain and oil transit logistics, warehousing and processing transactions.

  At the Laotangshan Phase III Wharf of Zhoushan International Grain and Oil Industry Park, the bulk carrier Yunlong Feng, carrying 63,000 tons of Brazilian soybeans, is unloading, slimming down and sailing into the Yangtze River for Taizhou, Jiangsu.

  Laotangshan Port Area is the largest grain entry port in East China and the throat of grain import in the Yangtze River Basin. At present, there are more than 40 grain and oil processing, warehousing and logistics trade enterprises in the park, with an annual grain processing capacity of 2.8 million tons. In 2022, the import grain transit logistics volume will reach 25 million tons, accounting for 17% of the national imported grain.

  From logistics to industry, the development of Zhoushan International Grain and Oil Industrial Park has become a microcosm of Zhejiang’s prosperity to the sea. According to statistics, Zhejiang’s total marine production increased from 58 billion yuan in 2002 to 1,035.5 billion yuan in 2022, with an average annual growth rate of 15.5%, and its marine economic strength ranked first in the country.

  In the past 20 years, Zhejiang has made full use of the advantages of port logistics, continuously enlarged the advantages of "sea", continuously accelerated the development of large ports, built large passages, developed large logistics, and formed Ningbo — Zhoushan deep-water port is the hub, Wenzhou, Jiaxing and Taizhou ports are the backbone, and the coastal port system, modern logistics system and industrial system closely related to port logistics are based on various small and medium-sized ports.

  In 2021, Zhejiang Province issued the "Fourteenth Five-Year Plan" for the development of marine economy, aiming to cultivate a modern port and shipping logistics service cluster with a level of 100 billion. By 2035, it will form a port-facing industrial cluster with great international influence and build a world-class strong port.

  Waterways are developing, and land is also being opened up. From Zhenhai, Ningbo to Zhoushan, Jintang Bridge, Xihoumen Bridge, Taoyaomen Bridge and Fuchimen Bridge are connected along the way, which makes Zhoushan change the history of "hanging an island on the sea".

  On December 29th, 2021, the main channel project of Ningbo Zhoushan Port was completed and opened to traffic. The construction mileage of Zhoushan Liandao Expressway reached 74 kilometers, spanning 8 islands, making it the longest Liandao Expressway and the largest cross-sea bridge group in China. At present, the construction of Ningbo-Zhoushan Railway is also under intense progress, and the completion of this railway will end the history of Zhoushan’s impassable railway.

  The land and sea corridor is "one connection and one hundred connections", and major infrastructure projects related to the overall situation have been completed one by one, and the cornerstone supporting the leap-forward development of the blue economy has become more and more stable.

  Stronger to the sea, the upgrading of traditional industries.

  In the southern waters of Zhoushan Archipelago, an island with a land area of 140 square kilometers — — Liuheng Island is experiencing the upgrading of the traditional marine economic industry.

  "Three of the top ten shipyards in the world are gathered in Liuheng Island." Yan Haibin, director of the Shipbuilding Industry Department of Zhoushan Economic and Information Bureau, said that ship repair is an important pillar industry in Zhoushan and a traditional marine economic industry. Zhoushan currently has the capacity to build 7 million deadweight tons and repair 3,000 ships of various types with an annual capacity of more than 10,000 tons. The number of ship repairs for five consecutive years accounts for more than one third of the country.

  However, the shipbuilding industry has always been burdened with the reputation of "3D" (Dangerous, Difficult and Dirty). "In the past, the oil pollution in the shipyard was relatively heavy, and the dust generated by the ship repair method of sandblasting and derusting was particularly high." Wang Junting, the head of Zhoushan Xinya Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., which ranks among the top in the world in 2022, said that transformation and upgrading is the only way to continue to be strong.

  All shipyards on Liuheng Island have challenged the traditional production and operation methods of ship repair, and comprehensively started the reform of sand blasting and rust removal alternative technology.

  Walking by the dock of Zhoushan COSCO Shipping Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., workers can be seen everywhere, either operating the handle or manipulating the crane truck. By controlling the ultra-high pressure water jet derusting equipment through the terminal, there is no rolling dust or pungent smell, and there is no large amount of residual iron sand at the dock bottom, so the dirt and rust attached to the hull of the ship plate are removed.

  "The transformation of operation mode has brought greater economic benefits, the unit operation efficiency has increased by nearly three times, and more than 42,000 tons of copper ore have been saved in one year." Zhou Jianhua, general manager of Zhoushan COSCO Shipping Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. said.

  In addition to the shipbuilding industry, traditional industries such as fishing, aquaculture, and port-based industries, which were originally born on the sea, have all ushered in industrial upgrading under the joint action of industrial structure transformation, scientific and technological strength support, and trade policy optimization.

  In the past, Zhoushan people who "eat the sea by the sea" often studied how to catch more fish in one net; Nowadays, Zhoushan people are thinking about how to maximize the value of a fish and tap new economic growth points of fisheries.

  In the workshop of Zhoushan Evergreen Ocean Food Co., Ltd., the original seafood raw material of about 4,000 yuan per ton was processed into peptide powder of 100,000 yuan per ton through protein peptide extraction technology, which was sold well in the consumer market of health care products.

  From longing for the economic benefits of "a net fish" to exploring the multiple added values of "a fish", this is the change brought about by the continuous promotion of marine economic development by the "Eighth Five-Year Plan", and the development of emerging marine industries is changing from "waves and flowers" to a surging trend.

  By the end of 2019, the first phase of Zhoushan Green Petrochemical Base, the single industry project with the largest investment in the world, was fully put into operation; On February 24, 2022, Endeavour, the world’s largest single-unit tidal power generator set, was successfully launched in Xiushan Island, Zhoushan, and the continuous operation time of LHD tidal power project remained the first in the world.

  In the past 20 years, the baton of developing marine economy in Zhejiang has been passed on, fully tapping "marine productivity", vigorously developing modern marine industries such as marine equipment, island tourism and offshore fishing, and starting a new engine for the development of blue economy.

  "In ‘ August 8th Strategy ’ Under the guidance of, we have gradually clarified the direction of adapting to local conditions and developing the marine economy. It is a long-term systematic project to realize all-round, multi-angle and full-chain transformation and upgrading. In the future, we will continue to anchor the positioning of the new highland of modern marine industry and fully promote the marine economy. A broader new world. " Sun Zhilong, secretary of the Putuo District Party Committee of Zhoushan City, said.

  Born to the sea, the sea and people are harmonious and build ecological beauty together.

  Driving through the "Moon Ring" Xuanmenwan Bridge in Yuhuan City, the wetland parks on both sides are sparkling, and 256 species of birds will live here, making it one of the best viewing spots for migratory birds along the East China Sea.

  In the 1970s, in order to get rid of the real dilemma of lacking arable land and fresh water, Yuhuan people almost completely relied on human resources to level half of the mountain, threw more than 520,000 square stones into the rapids, and built a dam connecting the island and the land. A 12-meter-wide dam has become an important channel to support the rapid development of local economy and society, making small island counties become the top 100 counties in China.

  However, the negative impact of the dam has gradually emerged: because the dam blocks the ocean currents, the eutrophication of the water in the bay has increased and the aquatic species resources have shrunk.

  It is imperative to withdraw the dam. In 2017, the Yuhuan Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government proposed a plan to build a bridge and remove the dam; In June, 2021, Xuanmenwan Bridge, which was built in parallel with the dam, was officially opened to traffic, and the two-way six-lane traffic greatly improved the traffic efficiency.

  Liu Shijin, a citizen of Yuhuan who participated in the dam construction survey that year, said that the dam was built for development in the past, but now it is withdrawn for longer-term development. "Leisure citizens and tourists can be seen everywhere along the wetland coast, and homestay camping is very prosperous." Statistics show that this year’s "May 1" and "Eleventh" holidays, the "upgraded" Xuanmen Bay Scenic Area has received more than 70,000 tourists.

  In line with the changing thinking of the times, Yuhuan story is not an isolated case in Zhejiang in the choice of improving the relationship between people and sea. At the end of 2020, the head of Lingni levee was demolished in Dongtou, Wenzhou to make way for migratory fish; At the beginning of 2022, Fenghua, Ningbo, cleared the beach and returned the mackerel to a stable home … … Along the coastline of more than 6,700 kilometers, the practice of harmonious development of human and sea is everywhere in Zhejiang.

  In July, 2020, Wenzhou Dongtou Blue Bay Renovation Action Project was selected as the only case of marine ecological restoration among the top ten cases by the Ministry of Natural Resources. The 302 islands in Dongtou are also continuously exploring the transformation channel of the "two mountains concept" in the blue sea.

  Chen Xuyang, director of Dongtou Branch of Wenzhou Ecological Environment Bureau, Zhejiang Province, said that not long ago, six financial institutions led by China Development Bank signed a loan contract of 2.3 billion yuan with Dongtou District of Wenzhou in 2023, marking the settlement of the first batch of EOD projects of marine ecological restoration in China (eco-environment-oriented development model), which solved the problems of financing difficulties in previous eco-environmental governance projects, and promoted industrial development through governance, which will further amplify the attraction of "sea gardens".

  From demanding space and resources from the ocean to building a harmonious concept of ocean development, Zhejiang has put ecological civilization construction in a prominent position, from point to point, land and sea linkage, taking hard measures, seeking practical results, strengthening law enforcement and supervision of sea islands, continuously organizing and implementing the "Blue Bay" rectification action and coastal protection and restoration projects, and building a blue ecological hard barrier.

  Since 2020, Zhejiang has taken the lead in establishing the first provincial comprehensive evaluation index system for marine ecology; Take the lead in controlling the total amount of pollutants entering the sea and piloting the marine ecological red line system; Implement the establishment of a global marine ecological construction demonstration zone & HELIP; …

  In order to protect marine ecology at a higher level, up to now, Zhejiang has formed "a book", "a picture" and "a table" of ecological risks at the provincial, municipal and county levels, comprehensively grasping the ecological background and forming a new pattern of marine ecological protection and restoration.

A Fangirl’s Romance pre-sale opens Vision Wei’s theme song exposure MV


1905 movie network news The film starring producer, director, special actor, special actor, special actor, special actor and friendship actor will be released nationwide on May 28th. The movie A Fangirl’s Romance released the theme song "Meet the Most Beautiful You" MV sung by singer Vision Wei, which once again increased the popularity before the film was released. On May 21st, the pre-sale in A Fangirl’s Romance has been started. On May 28th, I went to the cinema with my mother to feel my mother’s different youth.


Vision Wei, a powerful idol, sings with passion. 

NI YAN Zhou Dongyu meets the most beautiful love through memories.


The movie A Fangirl’s Romance finally released the theme song "Meet the Most Beautiful You" MV, and the powerful idol Vision Wei not only starred in the movie, but also sang this affectionate masterpiece. Once the MV went online, it touched many netizens: "The MV screen is so beautiful, I look forward to the movie!" "I got it! ! Ask for a movie! " In the MV, the love between Zhou Dongyu and Vision Wei, which transcends reality and memories, can be described as an appetite-raising, which fills the audience’s expectations for the film.


In the MV "Meet the Most Beautiful You", Vision Wei’s clean and affectionate voice tells the story, singing the deep love of two people that remains unchanged after 20 years. From the perspective of the heroine Gao Bei, the MV depicts the passionate love between the young Gao Bei (Zhou Dongyu) and the singer-in-residence (Vision Wei), which has never been forgotten even if they are separated. It also shows the deep love and helplessness of these two people for more than 20 years through Vision Wei’s gentle and tactful singing. The lyrics of the whole song are closely related to the theme of the movie and their emotional lines. "I can’t hear how noisy the world is, but my heart is still beating when I am sad."


A Fangirl’s Romance recalled her mother’s youthful love. 

Twenty-year-long memory and reality cross each other and cause emotional resonance.


The MV "Meet the Most Beautiful You" shows the helplessness and miss of young people’s impulsive and hot love because of the teasing of fate. In the MV, after Zhou Dongyu and Vision Wei were laughing at the seaside and kissing each other in the wooden house, the picture came to middle-aged Gao Bei (NI YAN) who went back to rehearse the lonely wooden house and looked out of the window. Gao Bei and her lover Tayu Lo were separated in the ups and downs of fate. In the 1990s, when mobile communication was underdeveloped, this miss was twenty years. Desperate and helpless in love are separated, which resonates with the audience with real emotional changes.


Different from previous films about mothers, A Fangirl’s Romance didn’t blindly portray the mother’s efforts and difficulties, but broke the rules of the identity of "mother". Instead, he chose to tell the story of a "sister-obsessed" mother, using her seemingly crazy experience in idolize to let her son find the story of her youth. This kind of setting will express the slightly heavy topic of maternal love easily and humorously, which is full of fun. It can be seen from the previews released before and the movie pictures released in the MV that there is not only the youthful and sweet interaction between Gao Bei and Tayu Lo when they were young, but also Gao Bei’s persistence in love and resistance to life after their separation. The passage of time and the joke of fate did not erase Gao Bei’s pursuit of life and love. Even if there is only one person, she will live a prosperous life. This is the difference between the movie A Fangirl’s Romance and family movies. I look forward to seeing you and your mother walk into the cinema on May 28th and feel the past of your mother’s youth.


A Fangirl’s Romance, starring NI YAN, Zhou Dongyu and Vision Wei, Peter, Jim and Guo Shutong, Amanda and Huang Jue, and Liu Xunzimo and Kodak, will be warmly released on May 28th.


After fighting for more than half a month, the rebel-held area in the Philippines has doubled.

Xinhua News Agency reported on June 13th that Philippine President Duterte ordered a 60-day martial law in Mindanao and other areas in the southern Philippines on May 23rd, and the country’s military and police are now fighting fiercely with the anti-government armed forces "Maute" and Abu Sayyaf, which are loyal to the extremist organization "Islamic State" (IS).

The Philippine military revealed that anti-government militants currently control 20% of Malawi, which is twice as much as the 10% mentioned last week. It seems unlikely that the government forces will end this encirclement and suppression in a short time. In addition, since the conflict broke out on May 23, the total number of casualties in Malawi conflict has exceeded 200, and tens of thousands of people have been displaced.

The rebel-controlled area of the Philippines doubled in half a month.

IS, through its propaganda agency Amaq, said that the Philippine military’s action to recover Malawi had "completely failed". It said: "IS militants currently occupy more than two-thirds of Malawi, and the military has become increasingly unable to control the situation."

Padia, a spokesman for the Philippine military, responded yesterday, calling the report by Amak News Agency "pure propaganda".

On June 3, in Malawi, Mindanao, southern Philippines, the Philippine Marine Corps searched along the street (Source: Xinhua News Agency)

Padia just said a week ago that the government forces have recovered 90% of Malawi, and 10% of the anti-government militants are in the city center.

So, how many places do IS militants control in Malawi?

For this question, the answer of West Mindanao Military Command Minister Javiz is: 20%.

He told Reuters: "Among the 96 neighboring districts in Malawi, militants control several commercial districts such as Marinao, Lulute, Mapandi and Pengolo, which account for 20% of the whole Malawi … This range is shrinking every day."

Former Commander-in-Chief of Philippine Army: Insurgents can still enter and leave Malawi at will.

The war in Malawi has entered its fourth week. Yesterday (13th) morning, guns continued to be heard in the city center, and the Philippine military constantly attacked militants with mortars and helicopter machine guns.

Malawi, a city with a majority of Muslims, originally had a population of 200,000. Most of the residents have fled since the armed elements of Ma Wude started the rebellion. The Philippine military estimates that there are still about 1,000 civilians trapped in the city.

Padia said that it is estimated that there are still about 100 militants fighting against government forces, which is much less than the initial 400 to 500 militants; However, due to the complex terrain in the downtown area where the militants are hiding, it is difficult for the government forces to attack, so it is too late to annihilate them all. "The security forces can’t fully attack because there may be civilians in the city, and the militants may use these civilians as human shields."

Biazon, former commander-in-chief of the Philippine Army, said in an interview with ABS-CBN, a Philippine TV station, on Monday (12th) that the main reason why government forces have been unable to regain control of Malawi is that the city’s borders control evacuation, and insurgents can enter and leave the city at will.

As of yesterday (13th), the war has killed 58 security forces and 26 civilians. However, Amak News Agency reported that at least 200 government troops have been killed, and many soldiers have abandoned their weapons and abandoned their posts to escape, so that militants can get weapons "supply".

The militants released prisoners to replenish their troops.

Malawi’s conflict lasted for a long time and the number of casualties exceeded expectations. Many reasons leveled the strength contrast between the two sides and escalated to a fierce battle.

Philippine government forces are not good at urban warfare, but pay attention to field operations, which are smooth with fire support, and often fall short of standards when fire support is insufficient.

Xinhua News Agency reporters have watched the joint exercises between the Philippines and the US military. The combat form is usually supported by rockets and heavy artillery, and the troops are in a state of surprise. However, in this Malawi conflict, in order to avoid causing a large number of civilian casualties, it is difficult for the Philippine government forces to use fire support such as heavy artillery, and even when using fire support, it is necessary to pay attention to prevent accidental injury to friendly troops. In the battle on June 1, the military accidentally bombed during the air raid, killing 11 government soldiers.

The militants are unscrupulous, and there are foreign armed men from Saudi Arabia, Chechnya and other regions, who are familiar with urban warfare. In addition, many members of Abu Sayyaf returned from Afghanistan and are also familiar with urban warfare.

Second, the military underestimated the number of militants. After Isnilon Hapilon and Mute occupied the prison in Malawi, they released the prisoners in the prison and got a lot of manpower to supplement them. In addition, the base of "Mute" organization is in South Lanao Province, where Malawi is located, which is very convenient for reinforcements. It is understood that Hapilon is the main leader of extremist organizations in Southeast Asian countries, and he is also the target of the State Council’s $5 million reward. At least 10 anti-government armed forces in the Philippines have formed an alliance, and Hapilon has served as the leader of the alliance.

Xinhua News Agency: There is hope for calm.

Xinhua News Agency said that although the conflict continued and caused heavy casualties, the situation in the southern Philippines was still different from that in the war-torn Middle East.

First of all,The cooperation between the two anti-government organizations and the Philippine government has made many people see the hope of resolving the conflict..

Under the government’s political offensive, the Moro National Liberation Front, as one of the two major anti-government armed forces in the southern Philippines, announced that it would send 2,000 troops to join the government forces in cracking down on Hapilon and Mute.

Another major anti-government armed force, the Moro Islamic Liberation Front, also cooperated with the government and acted as a neutral to mediate between the warring parties during the Malawi conflict.

Secondly, Xinhua News Agency reported that the Philippine military confirmed on June 10 that,The US military has been involved in the anti-terrorism operation in the Philippines.It provided "technical support and intelligence assistance" for the clean-up operations in the Philippines.

Screenshot of Philippine media reports

The Associated Press also reported on June 10th that the Philippine military had "called for help" from the US military, that the US ground troops had entered the urban area of Malawi, and that the US Navy’s P-3C patrol aircraft began to be stationed over Malawi. Mindanao, where Malawi is located, is a region with fierce ethnic and religious contradictions. Previously, the US military had deployed special forces in Mindanao for a long time to help the Philippine government control the regional situation.

However, there are still doubts about whether the US military will send ground troops. Philippine military spokesman Joe Al Herrera said at a press conference held in Malawi on the 10th that the US special forces provided "technical support" to the Philippine military, but did not participate in ground operations.

On June 6th, as part of the anti-terrorism assistance program to the Philippines, the US special forces handed over hundreds of weapons and equipment such as machine guns, pistols and grenade launchers to the Philippine Marine Corps, which also confirmed the activity of the US special forces in the southern Philippines.

In addition, the rapid rise of extremist organizations in the southern Philippines was also related to the political situation in the Philippines. At the end of former President Aquino III’s administration, the Basic Law of Bangsamoro, which was highly anticipated by many southern Muslims, failed to be passed in Congress, which angered many centrists and some moderate Muslims and led to the pursuit of armed independence of extremist organizations.

At present, the federalism promoted by the current Philippine President Duterte will give Muslims more rights and effectively attract them to adopt cooperative ways to solve problems.In view of the fact that the main forces in the southern Philippines have no action or will to intensify the conflict, it is difficult for Abu Sayyaf and Mut to fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the situation..

However, it IS worth noting that IS is increasing its investment in the southern Philippines. Indonesian Defense Minister Ryacudu said on the 4th that according to Indonesia’s information, there are about 1,200 IS members active in the Philippines.

Prevent Philippine terrorists from infiltrating Indonesia and plan to build more military bases on outlying islands.

Recently, the threat of terrorISm faced by Southeast Asian countries is increasing day by day. Countries are worried that IS, which was defeated by the United States-led Coalition forces in Iraq and Syria, may move to Southeast Asia and establish a new base in Mindanao, which will threaten the security of the whole Southeast Asia.

To this end, the Indonesian military and police have also stepped up their security alert.

According to Xinhua News Agency on the 11th, in order to prevent the infiltration of terrorists, Indonesia, a country of thousands of islands, announced on the 8th that it would build more military bases on outlying islands, including Morotai Island near Mindanao in the southern Philippines.

The Jakarta Post reported that Gato Nurman Tiyo, commander of Indonesian armed forces, said that the military would build a military base on Morotai Island in the northern part of Maluku province, aiming at preventing terrorists from fleeing into the country in the southern Philippines. He added that after the new military base is built, the equipment will be gradually transported there.

Indonesian antara News Agency quoted President Joko as saying that the construction of the military base on Morotai Island will be gradually advanced. Indonesia is building a military base on Grand Natuna Island in Riau Islands province. Zoco said: "At present, our focus is on the military base on Grand Natuna Island. After the completion of this project, we will focus on building the military base on Morotai Island."

The fuse of Malawi conflict

Xinhua News Agency reported that on May 23rd, local military and police in Malawi began to search for the leader of the anti-government organization Abu Sayyaf, Hapilon. Hapilon IS an important target on the State Council’s most wanted list and an important agent of IS in the southern Philippines.

To the surprise of the military and police, an arrest operation quickly escalated into a large-scale conflict: armed elements led by Hapilon occupied important institutions such as the municipal government, prisons, hospitals and churches, and kidnapped citizens as hostages; The Army’s 103rd Brigade barracks stationed outside Malawi were also attacked by the anti-government armed group Mute, an ally of Hapilon who had sworn allegiance to IS.

At the beginning of the conflict, militants occupied a considerable advantage, and even set up cards in the streets to intercept and kill local police. However, with the arrival of reinforcements from the Philippine government forces, the situation changed, the militants were gradually compressed into part of the city, and the exits of Malawi were blocked by government forces.

According to Philippine Defense Minister Lorenzana, the militants came from four organizations, of which 250 to 300 people participated in the war. Abu Sayyaf militants led by Hapilon are relatively capable, with 50 to 100 people; There are 80 reinforcements from two other rebels.

After 21 days of fighting, according to official statistics, 58 people were killed in government forces, 138 in militants and at least 20 civilians. At present, a small number of militants are trapped within three blocks by government forces, holding civilians hostage and dying.

Beware of carbon monoxide poisoning by "invisible killer"

  When the temperature drops suddenly, everyone may take a bath, burn charcoal to keep warm, eat hot pot and barbecue after closing the doors and windows, which may cause "carbon monoxide poisoning", which is often called "gas poisoning".

  Carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, so it is difficult to be detected. The common cause of poisoning is burning charcoal for heating in a closed or poorly ventilated room. When using gas to cook hot pot, barbecue or use gas water heater, the concentration of carbon monoxide in indoor air rises due to incomplete combustion and poor exhaust gas discharge.

  Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning

  In what aspects?

  Mild poisoning: there will be symptoms such as headache, dizziness, palpitation, nausea, vomiting and general fatigue. At this time, if you can open the window in time to ventilate and inhale fresh air, the symptoms will be alleviated and disappeared soon.

  Moderate poisoning: sweating, irritability, unsteady walking, pale skin, vague consciousness, always feeling sleepy, sleepy and weak, and gradually entering a coma. If effective measures are taken, it can basically be cured, leaving few sequelae.

  Severe poisoning: most of them are delirious, with clenched teeth, whole body twitching, incontinence, cherry red complexion, rapid breathing and pulse, rising blood pressure, arrhythmia, rales in the lungs, and possibly rising body temperature. Extremely critical patients can be in a deep coma, with weak pulse, irregular breathing, blood pressure drop, and high fever of 40 degrees Celsius. At this time, life is dying and the mortality rate is high. Even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will leave serious sequelae.

  Found carbon monoxide poisoning

  How to give first aid?

  After carbon monoxide poisoning, the poisoned person should be carried out of the room full of carbon monoxide, transferred to a ventilated and warm place to lie flat, and the collar and belt should be untied to facilitate his breathing and smoothness.

  When waiting for rescue, the unconscious poisoned person can tilt his head to one side to prevent the vomit from being inhaled into the lungs by mistake and causing suffocation.

  Prevention is the most important

  Now the country has entered a period of high incidence of carbon monoxide poisoning, and Chengdu CDC hereby urgently reminds you to be vigilant and do the following:

  When burning coal and charcoal indoors for heating, we must keep the air circulating. Remember to put out the fire before going to bed, burn out the coal and don’t cover it.

  Check the water heater and cooker at home to ensure the installation specification, and replace them in time if they are found to be damaged or leaking; Pay attention to keep good ventilation when taking a bath, and never let the water heater and gas stove burn empty.

  Do not use oil-fired generators for a long time in poorly ventilated rooms, garages, basements, etc.

  When driving an air-conditioned car for a long time, be sure to open the window for ventilation, and avoid sleeping in an idle state and a closed air-conditioned car.

  When eating hot pot and barbecue indoors, we should also pay attention to opening the window for ventilation. It is best not to use coal or charcoal to heat and cook hot pot.

  Pay attention to several misunderstandings

  1. If you don’t smell the smoke, you won’t be poisoned?

  Carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, and it may be poisoned before people realize it. Once they realize that they are poisoned by carbon monoxide, it is often too late. Although the poisoned person is conscious and wants to open the doors and windows to escape, his hands and feet are out of control, and he often cannot save himself effectively, which may eventually lead to coma or death.

  2. bank up won’t be poisoned with wet coal?

  Carbon monoxide is extremely insoluble in water, and water and gas are easy to form water-gas mixture at high temperature, which increases the risk of poisoning.

  3, there are gaps in doors and windows will not be poisoned?

  The specific gravity of carbon monoxide is smaller than that of air. If the gap between doors and windows is low, carbon monoxide is not easy to be discharged.

  4, carbon monoxide poisoning rescue will be fine?

  Carbon monoxide poisoning may cause sequelae of central nervous system, so we must adhere to the follow-up treatment and do not leave sequelae.

Major maintenance

1 major maintenance contents:

Major maintenance refers to the routine maintenance of replacing oil and oil filter, air filter and gasoline filter at the time or mileage specified by the manufacturer.

2 The necessity of major maintenance:

Major maintenance is based on minor maintenance. In addition to oil and oil filter, air filter and gasoline filter are added to the replaced skin care products. These two kinds of filter elements play the role of filtering dust in the air and impurities in gasoline respectively. The normal operation of the engine is based on the rational use of various skin care products. If the third filter of engine oil is not replaced in time after reaching the service life, it will have a bad influence on the engine performance.

3 major maintenance intervals:

Large maintenance is based on the existence of small maintenance. Generally, these two kinds of maintenance are carried out alternately. The interval varies from car brand to car brand. Please refer to the manufacturer’s recommendation for details.

4 items under maintenance:

1. Engine oil

Engine oil is the lubricating oil for engine operation. It can play a role in lubricating, cleaning, cooling, sealing and reducing wear of the engine. It is of great significance to reduce the wear of engine parts and prolong the service life.

2. Oil filter element

The oil filter element is a component for filtering oil. Engine oil contains a certain amount of colloid, impurities, moisture and additives; In the process of engine operation, the metal chips produced by the friction of various components, impurities in the inhaled air, oil oxides, etc. are all the objects of oil filter element filtration. If the oil directly enters the oil circuit without filtering, it will have an adverse impact on the performance and life of the engine.

3. Air filter element

When the engine is working, it will suck in a lot of air. If the air is not filtered, the dust in it will accelerate the wear of the piston group and cylinder. Larger particles enter between the piston and the cylinder, which will also cause serious "cylinder pulling" phenomenon. The function of the air filter element is to filter out dust and particles in the air and ensure that sufficient and clean air enters the cylinder.

4. Gasoline filter element

The function of the gasoline filter element is to provide clean fuel for the engine and filter out the moisture and impurities of gasoline. So as to optimize the performance of the engine and provide the best protection for the engine.

In a word, the maintenance of vehicles is very important, which can not only bring safety guarantee to the owners of vehicles, but also improve the residual value rate of vehicles. So don’t be afraid of trouble in vehicle maintenance.

The Middle East in 2016: Another Year in Danger

Conflict and turmoil are still the key words in the Middle East in 2016, and ethnic and religious contradictions are constantly intertwined with the game between big countries inside and outside the region. After the long-term turmoil in the Middle East, development and stability have become the common aspiration of countries and people in the Middle East, especially the desire of Arab countries to avoid chaos and seek governance is even stronger. People’s determination, avoiding chaos, seeking governance and development may be the hope of turbulent Middle East.

The situation in the Middle East in 2016 continued the basic characteristics of the interweaving of transformation and turmoil since the Middle East changed. On the one hand, the turmoil in the Middle East continues to deepen, spread and spill over, which is highlighted by the crisis of breaking diplomatic relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran, the deepening of the game between the great powers of the United States and Russia, the attempted coup in Turkey, the many large-scale terrorist attacks launched by the Islamic State in Europe and the Middle East, the difficult anti-terrorism struggle against the Islamic State, the stalemate in the political settlement of the Syrian issue, the rising Kurdish issue, the continued low oil prices, and the difficult transition of countries in the Middle East. On the other hand, the Middle East, which has experienced long-term turmoil, has also seen a chance to seek governance in chaos. From a regional perspective, despite the deepening of the game between big countries inside and outside the region, the consensus on politically solving regional hot issues such as the Syrian crisis, jointly coping with the terrorism and refugee crisis, and strengthening international cooperation against the "Islamic State" has been enhanced; From the national level, the transition process of the Middle East countries is still very difficult, but it is becoming the common aspiration of the countries and people in the region to be determined, avoid chaos and seek governance and development.

The game between the great powers of the United States and Russia has deepened.

But it did not move towards full-scale confrontation.

On the global strategic level, the fundamental reason for the continued deepening of the Middle East turmoil in 2016 lies in the adjustment of the Middle East strategy of the United States and Russia and the complex game between them. However, the relationship between them is in a state of limited confrontation, competition and cooperation, and it has not moved towards a large-scale comprehensive confrontation.

Overall contraction and controllable leadership constitute the basic characteristics of American Middle East strategy, which is the fundamental reason why the United States has relaxed its Syrian policy, eased its relations with Iran and limited its investment in cracking down on "Islamic State". While the United States is relatively retreating, Russia has stepped up its involvement in Middle East affairs by attacking the "Islamic State" militarily to help the Bashar regime in Syria, increasing its strategic investment in regional powers such as Iran and Egypt, and taking the Middle East as the main direction to break through the strategic dilemma after the Ukrainian crisis. The strategic situation of the United States retreating from Russia and the contradictions between the two sides around the Syrian crisis, the fight against the "Islamic State" and the struggle for regional power all complicate the regional hot issues and the differentiation and combination of regional forces, making the Middle East issue an important part of Medvedev’s so-called "new cold war".

But at the same time, we should also see that Russia’s strategic investment in the Middle East is still a limited investment based on local interests, and Russia does not yet have the strength and willingness to compete with the United States and the West for the Middle East in an all-round way. Therefore, the game between the United States and Russia in the Middle East is limited and controllable. There is still room for cooperation and interest exchange between the two sides on the Syrian issue and the fight against the "Islamic State", and the relationship between the two sides has not moved towards a comprehensive large-scale confrontation. The situation of US-Russian relations in 2016 shows that the two sides have had frequent interactions around the Syrian issue and the fight against the "Islamic State". The two sides even reached a ceasefire agreement on the Syrian crisis in September 2016, which shows that the two sides have a willingness to cooperate, but due to serious differences, the ceasefire agreement quickly fell through. Subsequently, the two sides vetoed each other at the UN Security Council in October, so that the draft resolutions on Syria proposed by France, Spain and Russia were not passed, which shows the deep differences between the two sides. Judging from the future development trend, the United States and Russia will fight for a political solution to the Syrian issue, crack down on the "Islamic State" and actively strive for regional powers, but the two sides will also carry out limited cooperation around regional hot issues.

The regional pattern continues to be unbalanced,

However, it is difficult for any regional power to dominate.

From the perspective of the pattern of the Middle East, the root of the current chaos in the Middle East lies in the drastic changes in the Middle East, the strategic adjustment of the United States in the Middle East, the sudden emergence of the "Islamic State" and other factors, which have made it difficult to rebuild the regional pattern and never form a relatively stable balance of power structure. In 2016, the imbalance of the pattern in the Middle East was further aggravated, which was highlighted by the continuous deterioration of the strategic environment of Turkey and Saudi Arabia, and the ambition of their great powers was continuously frustrated by internal and external difficulties.

First of all, the geopolitical, ethnic and sectarian confrontation between the two camps with Saudi Arabia and Iran as the core has become increasingly solid, but the confrontation between the two sides is more agent competition and has not moved towards a comprehensive direct confrontation. In the past few years, Saudi Arabia and Iran have launched a continuous agency competition around Bahrain, Syria, Iraq and Yemen. At the beginning of 2016, the crisis of breaking diplomatic relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran led to the openness and factionalization of confrontation between the two sides. The contradiction between the two sides was not a simple sectarian contradiction, but a superposition of three major contradictions: the geopolitical contradiction for regional dominance, the Arab-Persian contradiction, and the Sunni-Shia contradiction. The confrontation between the two sides presents a "new normal" of constant discord but not going to war, and the countries in the Middle East are gradually divided into Saudi camp, Iranian camp and middle camp. After the sanctions were lifted, Iran’s rising momentum became more and more obvious, but it was still difficult to get out of the predicament of long-term sanctions in a short time. For Saudi Arabia, although its status as a big country still exists, it has fallen into serious strategic anxiety due to the rise of Iran, the impact of low oil prices, diplomatic difficulties and the retrogression of Saudi-American allies.

Secondly, Turkey attacked from all sides based on multiple goals such as seeking great power status, competing for regional dominance, and solving the domestic Kurdish issue, but its great power ambition was seriously frustrated in 2016. In recent years, Turkey has made bad relations with Israel on the Palestinian-Israeli issue, wrestled with Iran on the Syrian issue, fought with the Egyptian Sethi regime on the Muslim Brotherhood issue, clashed with Iraq and Syria on the Kurdish issue, played a game with Russia on the Syrian issue and the fight against the "Islamic State", and even competed with Saudi Arabia on the issue of Sunni dominance and Islamic world dominance, and played more negative roles. In 2016, Turkey was deeply impacted by the attempted coup, the Kurdish issue, frequent terrorist attacks and other issues. With the early scenery of the "Arab Spring" no longer, Turkey’s diplomacy has become cautious and restrained.

Finally, the traditional regional powers have different powers, and their power restructuring is far from in place. Although the status of Egypt and Israel cannot be underestimated, it is difficult for them to make great achievements. Judging from the comparative situation of the five regional fulcrum countries, namely Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey and Israel, except for the above-mentioned Iran, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, Egypt’s status has greatly declined due to domestic turmoil and economic sluggishness, but the Sethi regime is seeking to revitalize Egypt’s status as a regional power. Israel’s security environment has been greatly improved, and its economic and scientific strength has made it an alternative stable country among the major powers in the Middle East. However, apart from adopting a more stubborn and conservative policy on the Palestinian-Israeli issue, Israel simply does not have the conditions and ability to lead regional affairs.

In short, in the current regional structure, the unfavorable position of major powers is further highlighted, and it is difficult for all parties to dominate regional affairs. Its positive impact is that the foreign strategies of major powers will tend to be cautious and rational, creating conditions for political solutions to regional hot issues; Its negative impact is that the continued imbalance of regional pattern will lead to the aggravation of regional disorder and seriously affect regional security and stability.

The transformation of Middle East countries is difficult.

But seeking development and stability has become the general trend.

Generally speaking, there are three types of countries in the Middle East: first, countries governed by chaos, represented by Egypt and Tunisia, whose overall situation is that although their situation has improved, their prospects are still not optimistic. To a large extent, they have only initially completed the task of maintaining national stability, but they are far from finding a suitable development path; Second, countries with persistent turmoil, such as Syria, Yemen, Libya and Iraq, are still in serious turmoil, and national reconstruction is seriously hindered; Third, most other Middle Eastern countries facing the pressure of transformation are solving long-standing problems through political and economic reforms and enhancing their national governance capacity.

The above three types of countries are all facing heavy transformation pressure. The important task of a country ruled by chaos lies in exploring the development path and development model. The key task of a country with serious turmoil lies in achieving stability at an early date, while the important task of a country facing transformation pressure lies in alleviating and releasing contradictions through reform and avoiding repeating the mistakes of the "Arab Spring" through development and transformation. For the first two types of countries, 2016 is still in a stalemate where transformation and turmoil are intertwined, and there is no new breakthrough; There are two noteworthy phenomena in countries facing the pressure of transformation, that is, Gulf Arab countries are actively promoting the transformation of national economic development, and the attempted coup in Turkey has exposed the profound pressure they are facing. However, from the perspective of the whole region, it is becoming the common aspiration of the countries and people in the region to be calm, avoid chaos and seek governance and development.

First of all, the GCC countries represented by Saudi Arabia, which are traditional energy powers, are actively exploring national transformation and trying to get rid of a single economic structure by implementing medium-and long-term economic plans. In 2016, Saudi Arabia put forward the "Vision 2030" plan, the United Arab Emirates formulated the "Strategic Plan 2021" and Qatar also formulated the "National Development Plan 2030", trying to get rid of dependence on oil and realize diversified economic development, but its prospects remain to be seen.

Secondly, the attempted coup reflects the deep-seated contradictions and crises in Turkey. In 2016, the slowdown in economic growth, frequent terrorist attacks, Erdogan’s forced presidential system, deepening diplomatic difficulties and the attempted coup all indicate that Turkey’s prosperity and stability in the past decade or so since the Justice and Development Party came to power are changing. At present, the contradictions between secularism and religion, state and society, authoritarianism and democracy, army and government, nation and religion, and nation and ethnicity constitute the main problems facing Turkey in the current transformation process. Turkey’s political, economic and social development has entered a period of profound adjustment and transformation, and may fall into the double predicament of economic recession and political turmoil.

Finally, after the long-term turmoil since the Middle East changed, development and stability have become the common aspiration of countries and people in the Middle East, especially the desire of Arab countries to avoid chaos and seek governance is even stronger. According to some opinion polls, due to the long-term political turmoil, extremism and terrorism, and the sustained economic downturn, both the Arab people and the intellectual elite have lost confidence in the so-called "Arab Spring" and are strongly eager for the country to achieve political stability and economic development. For example, a survey called "Arab Public Opinion Index" shows that the proportion of Arabs who have a positive attitude towards the "Arab Spring" has dropped from 61% in 2013 to 34% in 2015. According to the data of the Arab Youth Survey in 2016, 53% of Arab youth believe that stability is more important than democracy, while only 28% hold the opposite attitude. Therefore, people’s determination, avoiding chaos, seeking governance and development are increasingly becoming the common aspiration of countries and people in the Middle East, which may be the hope of turbulent Middle East.
