BEIJING, March 9 (Xinhua) — China will promote digital smartness and greening of its transportation sector during the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030), Transport Minister Liu Wei said Monday.

In the next five years, China will focus on promoting the application of artificial intelligence in the transportation industry and will work to accelerate the development of smart highways, smart ports and smart shipping, Liu Wei said on the sidelines of the fourth session of the 14th National People's Congress (NPC) in Beijing.

According to the minister, the country plans to promote the development of zero-carbon transport corridors and stations as part of efforts to stimulate low-carbon development in the country's transportation sector. During the 15th Five-Year Plan period, China will expand the use of environmentally friendly transportation equipment, including vehicles and vessels powered by new energy sources, he noted.

Currently, 98.8 percent of China's expressway service areas are equipped with charging stations, Liu Wei said, adding that the country will focus on introducing high-power charging stations this year to ease the difficulty of finding charging stations and reduce waiting times.

Liu Wei announced that during the 15th Five-Year Plan period, China will implement projects to improve the efficiency of intercity travel in urban agglomerations, which will significantly increase the proportion of the population within them who will be able to get to work in an hour or less and then back home in the same amount of time.

The transportation sector plays a vital role in serving the population, Liu Wei pointed out, noting that on average, about 550 million parcels are processed daily across the country, meaning that each Chinese person receives an average of about three parcels per week. -0-

BEIJING, March 9 (Xinhua) — China remains highly vigilant and firmly opposes Japan's attempts to achieve a breakthrough on the Taiwan issue, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Monday.

He made this statement at a regular departmental press conference, responding to a question about the recent visit to Japan by Taiwan's top executive, Zhuo Rongtai. The Chinese diplomat stated that Zhuo Rongtai had engaged in provocative tactics in Japan aimed at achieving "Taiwan independence" and that his actions were utterly contemptible.

Japan will pay a heavy price for its indulgence in provocations and reckless actions, and responsibility for all the ensuing consequences must be borne by the Japanese side, Guo Jiakun concluded. -0-

The initiative of JSC DAAZ (a company of the OAT Group, part of KAMAZ) to build new drinking water supply networks is entering a new phase. A roadmap has been signed for the implementation of the construction project "Construction of Drinking Water Supply Networks on the Territory of the DAAZ Industrial Park in Dimitrovgrad, Ulyanovsk Region."

The work will ensure a stable water supply for residents of the IPP DAAZ, DIP Master, as well as the main consumer of HPW (more than 60% of the total consumption), Resurs LLC, which in turn provides heat to the population of the Pervomaysky district of Dimitrovgrad.

DAAZ JSC has launched an important initiative by developing a comprehensive project for the construction of water supply networks in Dimitrovgrad. The developed documentation is planned to be donated to the municipality free of charge for further implementation of this large-scale project. This strategic step is aimed at improving the reliability and quality of this vital public service for every city resident.

The existing water supply infrastructure requires systematic renovation. The construction project developed by specialists from JSC DAAZ provides a comprehensive approach to the construction of new domestic and drinking water supply networks.

Thanks to the joint efforts of JSC DAAZ and the city administration, residents of the DAAZ IPP, DIP Master, and OOO Resurs, which in turn supplies heat to the residents of the Pervomaysky District of Dimitrovgrad, will be able to count on a stable water supply and a reduction in the number of emergency situations. Transferring the completed project to the municipality is a conscious decision by the joint-stock company aimed at accelerating the process and attracting the necessary resources for full-scale implementation. This collaboration will effectively leverage the experience and capabilities of both parties to achieve the common goal of creating a modern and reliable water supply system. Work is expected to begin this summer.

"DAAZ has always recognized its significant role in the life of Dimitrovgrad," noted Elena Gavrilova, CEO of DAAZ. "Our history is inextricably linked with the city's development, and we bear a historical responsibility for maintaining the infrastructure that ensures a comfortable life for residents. The development of this project is our contribution to the future of Dimitrovgrad, a demonstration of our concern for the well-being of current and future generations. We are confident that working together with the municipality will enable us to achieve the best possible results."

BEIJING, March 9 (Xinhua) — China's producer prices continued to improve last month, with the decline in the producer price index (PPI) continuing to narrow, official data showed Monday.

In China, the PPI, a measure of wholesale producer price changes, fell by 0.9 percent year-on-year in February. The rate of decline was 0.5 percentage points slower than the previous month, according to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS).

According to the agency, the PPI rose by 0.4 percent on a monthly basis in February, maintaining the same growth rate as in January.

NBS statistician Dong Lijuan attributed the month-on-month increase in the PPI and the slowdown in the year-on-year decline to factors including the rising trend in international commodity prices, rapid demand growth in some domestic industries, and the effectiveness of macroeconomic policies.

China has seen month-on-month PPI growth for five consecutive months, Dong Lijuan noted, adding that this trend, especially in February, was driven by rising international prices of non-ferrous metals and crude oil, which led to higher prices in related domestic industries, as well as the development of computing power, which increased demand in some industries and caused a corresponding rise in prices.

Data released Monday also showed that China's consumer price index (CPI), a key measure of inflation, rose 1.3 percent year-on-year in February. Compared with the previous month, the CPI increased 1 percent. -0-

The brain-machine interface is included in the government's work report for the first time: what are the prospects for its development?

This year's government work report mentioned brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) for the first time, identifying them as a promising future industry. Proposals for the 15th Five-Year Plan also clearly outline the need for strategic planning for emerging industries and to promote BCIs as a new driver of economic growth.

Industry representatives believe that BCI, as a revolutionary human-computer interaction technology, is expanding its application areas from a key area of medical rehabilitation to the space industry, industry, everyday life, education, and other areas, gradually becoming a key technology capable of transforming many industries.

"China's BCI industry is at a critical juncture of accelerated technological breakthroughs, rapid ecosystem development, and gradual commercialization. China has already entered the top tier of global BCI developers," said Min Dong, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and Vice President of Tianjin University.

Min Dong noted that, technologically, China is already keeping pace with global leaders in the field of non-invasive BCIs, and even ahead of them in some segments. The technological gap in key components for invasive BCIs is rapidly narrowing. In terms of industry development, capital market interest in the sector continues to grow, and the entire production chain is gradually moving from laboratory research to industrialization.

Cheng Longlong, General Manager of CEC Cloud Brain Co., Ltd. (Tianjin), noted that the development of the BCI industry still faces several challenges, including a shortage of highly skilled personnel, barriers to interdisciplinary technology integration, and limited industrialization capabilities in some key areas.

Min Dong agreed with this assessment, stating, "BCI combines the most advanced theories and technologies from multiple disciplines, including medicine, computer science, electronics, mechanics, and materials science. Due to the long technological chain, any weak link could slow down the industrialization process."

Min Dong proposed to quickly establish a system of specialized disciplines necessary for the implementation of the national BCI strategy: from accelerating the development of discipline architecture at the highest level and creating a mechanism for joint training of personnel between universities and enterprises to improving the system for assessing specialists and incentive mechanisms for building a highly qualified team with extensive experience and interdisciplinary education.
