CANBERRA, July 31 (Xinhua) — For the Australian federal government, recognizing Palestine is a matter of "when, not if," Treasurer Jim Chalmers told ABC on Thursday.

"There are still a number of obstacles to recognizing a Palestinian state. For example, the treatment of hostages, their release, ensuring that Hamas plays absolutely no role," Chalmers said.

He made the statement shortly before Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced his country's intention to recognize Palestinian statehood at the 80th session of the UN General Assembly in September.

On Tuesday, foreign ministers from 15 countries, including Australia and Canada, issued a joint statement reaffirming their “unwavering commitment” to a two-state solution for Palestine.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is under pressure from his fellow party members to recognize Palestinian statehood, ABC reported Thursday. –0–

BEIJING, July 31 (Xinhua) — China's manufacturing sector weakened slightly in July due to seasonal factors, but the fundamental conditions for economic growth remained in place, new industries are gaining momentum and business confidence continues to strengthen.

China's manufacturing purchasing managers' index (PMI) stood at 49.3 in July, down 0.4 percentage points from June, data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) showed Thursday.

China's manufacturing industry has entered its traditional low season, with the situation further affected by abnormally high temperatures and natural disasters, including heavy rains and floods in some regions, said NBS statistician Zhao Qinghe.

Despite the overall decline, Zhao Qinghe noted that a number of sub-indices showed positive dynamics. The business activity index in high-tech manufacturing was 50.6, and in equipment manufacturing – 50.3, both indicators remained above the threshold separating growth and decline.

Market expectations have improved markedly. The business expectations index rose to 52.6, up from 52 in June. Particularly optimistic were sectors such as automobile manufacturing, railway equipment manufacturing and electrical equipment manufacturing, with their expectations indexes exceeding 55.

Other positive signals revealed by the data include steady growth in the manufacturing index, continued price recovery and stable growth in large enterprises. -0-

YINCHUAN, July 31 (Xinhua) — The China-Central Asia Cooperation Center on Desertification Prevention and Control was launched on Wednesday under the Forestry and Grassland Administration of northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. The establishment of the center is an important step in implementing the outcomes of the 2nd China-Central Asia Summit and is intended to contribute to the construction of the green Belt and Road.

As it became known, under the auspices of the center, 6 demonstration practice-oriented bases will be created, primarily concerning the establishment of production with the specificity of sandy terrain, the development of plant varieties adapted to the conditions of sandy soils and the improvement of territories subject to erosion. It is planned to implement practical cooperation in the relevant areas with the countries of Central Asia. Deepening cooperation in technology transfer, project implementation, professional training and in other areas, as emphasized, should lead to an increase in the overall potential for preventing and combating desertification.

Ningxia is the only provincial-level region in China that has the status of a model zone for preventing and combating desertification, which pays serious attention to international cooperation: 24 cooperation projects have been implemented to date. Experts from 72 countries and regions of the world and international organizations have become familiar with Ningxia's experience by personally visiting this Chinese region. It also periodically organizes international seminars on this issue.

WELLINGTON, July 31 (Xinhua) — More than 36,000 nurses, midwives and health care assistants across New Zealand began a 24-hour strike on Wednesday morning after talks with authorities over wages and recruitment ended in failure.

The wages offered by the New Zealand Ministry of Health are not satisfactory for nurses and staff shortages are becoming a serious problem.

According to national radio station Radio New Zealand, the country's Ministry of Health offered a 3 per cent pay rise over 27 months, while the New Zealand Nurses Organisation (NZNO) counter-offered a 5 per cent pay rise over two years.

Meanwhile, data obtained by NZNO from the New Zealand Ministry of Health shows that more than half of day shifts in hospital surgeries were understaffed last year.

NZNO chief executive Paul Goulter has accused the government of failing to meet urgent demands for staff to fill positions identified as essential to ensure safe staffing.

"NZNO has expressed concern about the chronic and ongoing staff shortages throughout the collective agreement negotiation process that began in September last year," Pg Goulter said.

However, life-saving services will continue to be provided. “The public can be assured that we have an agreement with NZNO to support life-saving services throughout the strike and our hospitals and emergency departments will continue to operate,” said New Zealand Health chief executive Dr Dale Bramley. –0–
