SEOUL, Aug. 13 (Xinhua) — A national think tank in Korea on Tuesday left its 2025 Asian economic growth forecast at 0.8 percent, reflecting instability in the construction industry.

According to the Korea Development Institute, real gross domestic product (GDP) adjusted for inflation will grow by 0.8 percent in 2025.

That's unchanged from estimates released three months earlier, with real GDP forecast to grow 1.6 percent in 2026.

The still-low growth outlook is due to a sluggish construction sector and worsening trade conditions due to the imposition of US tariffs.

Investment in construction is expected to fall 8.1 percent this year, 3.9 percent below forecasts released three months earlier.

In volume terms, goods exports are forecast to grow 1.2 percent this year after growing 6.4 percent last year.

Forecasts for private consumption and fixed capital investment for 2025 were revised upward by 0.2 and 0.1 percent, respectively.

The current account surplus is projected to reach $106.2 billion in 2025 and $91.2 billion in 2026.

The consumer price inflation forecast was set at 2.0 percent for 2025 and 1.8 percent for 2026.

The number of jobs is expected to increase by 150,000 this year and by 110,000 next year. –0–

International Summer in Peterhof: Foreign Students Discover Russia's Pearl

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

During the summer language and cultural camp, foreign students of our university went on an excursion to Peterhof, the famous residence of Russian emperors and one of the most impressive palace and park ensembles in the world. Students from nine countries took part in the trip: India, Zambia, Burundi, Kenya, Ethiopia, Angola, Guinea-Bissau, Cameroon and Cambodia.

From the first minutes of visiting the Grand Peterhof Palace, the students were immersed in the era of luxury and grandeur of the Russian Empire. They saw the state rooms decorated with gold, crystal and paintings, and also learned about the lives of the Russian tsars.

After the tour of the palace, the students went to explore the famous parks of Peterhof. In the Upper Garden, they were greeted by well-kept alleys and symmetrical fountains, and in the Lower Park, a stunning view of the Gulf of Finland and the Chess Mountain cascade. The culmination was the legendary Samson fountain, symbolizing Russia's victory in the Northern War.

But the real surprise for the participants were the famous Peterhof joke fountains! Unprepared for such a fun challenge, the students all fell under the streams of water secretly beating from under the ground. Everyone got wet, but this only added to the laughter and joy.

With friends and our teacher Elizaveta, we went on an amazing excursion to Peterhof! It was my first encounter with this amazing place. It exceeded all expectations. Our guide took us around the palace and told us its history so fascinatingly that time flew by. I really enjoyed it — the excursion was truly interesting and memorable! — shared Dos Santos Pereira Danilson from Guinea-Bissau.

This trip is not just an excursion, but part of a larger summer camp program, where students study Russian, participate in master classes, and get acquainted with Russian culture. The university continues to organize such events, strengthening international ties and creating opportunities for intercultural dialogue.

The staff of the Research Laboratory "Laser and Additive Technologies" of the Institute of Metallurgy and Metallurgy of the St. Petersburg Polytechnic University completed a key stage of R&D within the framework of the delivery of a technological complex for laser powder cladding for the LLC "UK "KER-Holding".

Engineers from the Research Laboratory "LiAT" of the Institute of Metallurgy and Metallurgy of the St. Petersburg Polytechnic University completed the practical part of the project aimed at transferring laser surfacing technologies for the restoration of gas turbine engine components, and conducted acceptance tests of the previously delivered laser powder surfacing technological complex.

The work was carried out as part of the second stage of R & D. The main objective was to implement and test laser cladding modes on two types of parts and control samples, including components made of heat-resistant nickel superalloys. The focus of the project was the restoration of the SGT-300 first-stage nozzle blades and the first-stage working blades of the Taurus 60 gas turbine engine.

All stages were accompanied by a full technological cycle: coordination of sample geometry, fluorescent testing for cracks, development of technological instructions, design and manufacture of equipment.

Mikhail Kuznetsov, Head of the Research Laboratory "LiAT" of the SPbPU Institute of Metallurgy and Metallurgy, noted: The laboratory staff successfully carried out acceptance tests of the laser cladding complex and demonstrated the applicability of the developed technologies taking into account the specifics of real production conditions. At the next stage, it is planned to equip the complex with a sealed chamber.

Long-term cooperation with UK KER-Holding LLC is one of the examples of how scientific developments of the Scientific Research Laboratory LiAT of IMMiT SPbPU find real application in industry. This is an important step towards the introduction of import-substituting technologies in the field of aviation and power engineering.
