HANGZHOU, Sept. 15 (Xinhua) — The Panama-flagged cargo ship "Forest Glory" left Wenzhou Port in east China's Zhejiang Province for Dubai on Monday, carrying 400 Chinese-brand new energy vehicles (NEVs).

The vessel's departure marked the official launch of the new sea route from Wenzhou to the Middle East, which is also the first dedicated route opened by the Wenzhou Port Authority for the transportation of assembled vehicles on NIE by ro-ro.

The ship will stop in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, southern China, before arriving in Dubai. The journey will take about 23 days in total.

The opening of the new route will further increase the cargo turnover of Wenzhou Port, expand the network of foreign trade routes passing through it, and support the export of domestically produced automobiles to the NIE.

In the first half of 2025, China's NVEH exports soared 75.2 percent year-on-year to 1.06 million units, according to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers.

Over the past decade, Chinese automobiles on the NIE have been exported to more than 70 countries and regions around the world. -0-

The Tale of the Viennese Waltz: The White Hall Opened the 20th Concert Season

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The musical festival “Strauss Gala” marked the beginning of the new concert season in the White Hall – the 20th in its modern history.

You enter the assembly hall and are involuntarily surprised by its size… The hall is all white with a stucco ceiling, with huge windows in two rows, wide ceilings pouring in waves of light. Along three walls stretch choirs supported by light balustrades, – wrote the newspaper "Birzhevye Vedomosti" on October 2, 1902.

The history of the hall and the history of the university are common. The ceremonial opening of the Polytechnic Institute on October 1, 1902 took place in the White Hall. Many historical events took place there – from speeches of the country's political leaders to creative evenings of famous poets and actors. Permanent concert activity in the White Hall began 100 years later. On September 1, 2005, the hall opened after restoration with a concert by Vladimir Spivakov and the Moscow Virtuosi Orchestra.

"This performance became a kind of standard for all subsequent concerts in the White Hall," says Boris Kondin, head of the Directorate of Cultural Programs and Youth Creativity at SPbPU, who took charge of this work 20 years ago. "Since then, the White Hall has maintained an atmosphere of grandeur and is famous for unforgettable concerts of Russian and world stars, masters of culture and art."

On the opening day of the 20th season, guests of the White Hall were greeted by an exhibition of historical photographs, which showed how the hall had changed over the course of a century of its history.

The State St. Petersburg Symphony Orchestra "Classica" presented the audience with a double gift – a concert in honor of the 20th anniversary of the beginning of the new history of the hall and the 200th anniversary of the birth of Johann Strauss Jr. The Viennese "waltz king" Johann Strauss spent many years in his beloved St. Petersburg of the second half of the 19th century, leading the orchestra at the Pavlovsk Music Station and delighting the public, including the imperial family, with brilliant concerts.

And now, in our days, immortal waltzes, polkas and marches have filled the White Hall with the grace and atmosphere of a ball.

"Strauss's music is best suited to create a festive mood and open the anniversary concert season," said the orchestra's conductor, Maestro Alexander Kantorov. "I congratulate the team and the audience of the White Hall, and wish to continue to delight connoisseurs of great classics with such celebrations of music and inspiration!"

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

At the opening, students had a unique opportunity to communicate with the 2GIS team, receive individual consultation, and also take part in a drawing of cool prizes. The new coworking area for study and relaxation is located in the NSU academic building in the 2nd block on the 2nd floor. It is equipped with a marker board, where you can write down and visualize your ideas, solve problems, and much more. This is also the first coworking space at NSU with a TV, which is available to all students – it can be used, for example, to rehearse a report.

— We looked at other areas of colleagues in your university and, of course, when creating the design project, we took into account, first of all, the needs of students: as many sockets as possible and the possibility of privacy. We added a little comfort in the form of small sitting areas, or green holes, as we call them, — shared Victoria Kostenko, 2GIS employer brand promotion specialist. Another interesting feature of the area is pillows in the form of popular emojis from the Friends on the Map app. In March of this year, the university hosted a lecture by NSU graduate, head of the 2GIS product marketing department Semyon Koltsov, who spoke about the creation of this function. With the help of Friends on the Map, you can track the location of friends and family, plan meetings in general chats and much more.

— 2GIS is a well-known company not only in Russia, but also in the world. Its head office is located in Novosibirsk, and many graduates of Novosibirsk State University work in the company. NSU and 2GIS are close friends: the company actively supports the initiatives of our university, and NSU, in turn, supports 2GIS events.

The result is a very bright and beautiful coworking space, equipped with electrical outlets, comfortable chairs and tables, as well as a recreation area, which is important. Judging by the number of students who are there all the time, they really like it, – said Svetlana Dovgal, Director of the Career Development Center (CDC) of NSU.

NSU and 2GIS have been fruitfully cooperating for a long time. The company takes an active part in the "Career Days" event organized by the NSU Career Development Center. Students have the opportunity to go on a tour of the 2GIS office by registering in advance at the Career Development Center. This fall, NSU will also host a lecture by the company's experts "Testing in IT: Modern Approaches and Career Opportunities."

BEIJING, Sept. 15 (Xinhua) — The successful election of the 8th Legislative Council of the Macao Special Administrative Region (SAR) on Sunday is another important achievement in fully implementing the principle of "Macao ruled by patriots" and advancing high-quality democracy in line with local conditions, a spokesperson for the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council said Monday.

This election was the first to be held after the regional government amended the Legislative Council Election Law in 2024. The revised law improved and streamlined the selection criteria and candidate screening mechanisms, further promoting the principle of “Patriots governing Macao.” It also streamlined procedures at all stages of the election to ensure that it is conducted in a fair, impartial, open and honest manner.

The elections were marked by broad public participation, high voter enthusiasm and an unprecedentedly large number of people who took part in the voting, the agency representative noted.

The all-round qualities of the newly elected deputies have been widely recognized by the Macao public. “Each of them has their own strengths, making them a well-structured team, and their overall qualities can be said to be at the highest level in history,” he emphasized.

The office expressed its hope and confidence that the new legislature will firmly adhere to its original aspiration of loving the country and Macao, conscientiously and firmly safeguard national sovereignty, security and development interests, uphold the constitutional order and administrative leadership system of the Macao SAR, and fully support the Chief Executive and the SAR Government in governing the region in accordance with the law.

He called on the new legislators to diligently fulfill their duties and promote proper diversification of Macao's economy, accelerate the construction of the Guangdong-Macao Deep Cooperation Area on Hengqin Island, maintain social harmony and stability, improve people's living standards, and promote better integration of Macao into overall national development.

He also shared his expectations that they will also make greater efforts to build a powerful country and rejuvenate the Chinese nation, contributing to ensuring the sustainable and long-term practice of the “one country, two systems” policy with Macao characteristics. -0-
