NANNING, Dec. 6 (Xinhua) — China on Friday launched a new high-speed railway section to a southern city bordering Vietnam, a major step aimed at boosting cross-border tourism and strengthening regional ties.

This 81-kilometer section between the cities of Chongzuo and Pingxiang in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (GZAR, southern China) is part of the Nanning-Pingxiang high-speed railway. Trains on this section have a design speed of 250 km/h. The Nanning-Chongzuo section was commissioned in December 2022.

With the opening of the new East Siberian Railway section, the entire route will be fully operational, improving the efficiency of passenger travel from Nanning (the administrative center of the State Charitable Autonomous Region) to Pingxiang, a key border city. The total travel time between the two points will now be reduced to 75 minutes.

The faster rail route is expected to boost tourism demand. Some travel agencies are already offering international weekend tours for travelers looking for short getaways.

Experts believe that the full operation of the high-speed railway will also strengthen regional connectivity and provide more effective support for the development of the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area. -0-

HONG KONG, Dec. 5 (Xinhua) — The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) government strongly condemned some politicians in the U.S. House of Representatives for attempting to use the so-called "resolution" to make absurd and factually distorted comments on Lee Zhiying's national security case and his detention conditions.

As a SAR government spokesperson noted, the Hong Kong authorities reiterate that since the trial of Lee Zhiying is still ongoing, it is inappropriate for anyone to comment on this case in an attempt to obstruct the judiciary from performing its functions independently, as doing so may constitute obstruction of justice.

The official representative recalled that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is an inalienable part of the People's Republic of China – a local administrative region that enjoys a high degree of autonomy in accordance with the implementation of the "one country, two systems" policy and is directly subordinate to the Central People's Government.

The SAR administration once again strongly calls on relevant US policymakers to distinguish facts from delusions, respect international law and basic norms of international relations, and immediately stop interfering in Hong Kong's affairs, which are China's exclusively internal affairs, he concluded. -0-

Beijing, December 5 (Xinhua) — China's new $100 million in aid to Palestine is intended to help improve the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip and alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian announced on Friday.

The diplomat made the statement at a regular departmental press briefing when asked to elaborate on China's intention to provide aid aimed at alleviating the humanitarian crisis and post-conflict reconstruction in the Palestinian enclave.

On December 4, at a joint media meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced that China would provide $100 million in aid to Palestine to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip and support its recovery and reconstruction. Furthermore, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, in turn, sent a message of gratitude to Xi Jinping.

As Lin Jian recalled, Xi Jinping also announced that China and France will work together to achieve a comprehensive, just and lasting solution to the Palestinian issue as soon as possible.

Noting that more than two years have passed since the latest round of conflict in Gaza, which triggered an unprecedented humanitarian crisis, Lin Jian stressed that China is deeply concerned about this issue.

He noted that since the beginning of this confrontation, China has provided numerous shipments of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip through the UN, Egypt, Jordan and other channels, which has been welcomed and highly appreciated by the Palestinian Authority and the Palestinian people.

According to Lin Jian, the Chinese President called the Palestinian issue a test of the effectiveness of the global governance system and called on the international community to face the root cause of the issue head-on, demonstrate responsibility, and take decisive action to address historical injustice and uphold fairness and justice.

China firmly supports the just cause of the Palestinian people to restore their legitimate national rights and will continue to work tirelessly with the international community to promote the implementation of a comprehensive and lasting ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, alleviate the humanitarian situation in the enclave, and achieve an early political settlement of the Palestinian issue based on a two-state solution, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman concluded.
