China: Humanoid Robot Beats – Usain Bolt’s – 100-Metre World Record Time! (24.8.2026)

24/08/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Let’s face, a “robot” is basically a car manifesting its fast manoeuvrability via “two-legs” – instead of wheels. A standard car, depending upon the skill of the driver, should be able to easily beat the fastest of humans. A human-body lacks the mechanical ability to accelerate from 0-60mph in five-seconds – on the grounds that it has not been an evolutionary necessity. The idea that an artificial machine, just because it has been given the moulded externality of a “human-shaped body” – does not mean it has any genuine relationship (or connection) to a “biologically-functioning” human-body. What is the difference between a “robot” and a “drone”? Answer – the ability to “flight”. And that’s about it. What’s next – parachuting? Rock-climbing? Diving? It is an interesting gimmick and I suspect the CPC might be using ths technology to intimidate the US by proxy – as these “funny little fellows” might be used as expendable infantry soldiers in a future war of self-defence against US aggression.

Chinese Ambassador to the DPRK Wang Yajun, some other Chinese diplomats, and an official in charge of external affairs at the DPRK railway ministry came to the platform of the station to greet the passengers arriving on the train.

Extending a warm welcome, Wang described the resumption of the rail link as “a good development the peoples from both countries have been looking forward to and a significant event in bilateral relations.”

China State Railway Group Co., Ltd. announced Tuesday that international passenger trains connecting China and the DPRK would begin operating in both directions on Thursday.

The services will connect Beijing and Dandong with Pyongyang, helping facilitate cross-border travel and boost economic, trade and cultural exchanges between the two countries, the Chinese railway operator said.

China: US Should Follow UN Resolution 2758! (1.10.2025)

01/10/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The resolution states that the restoration of the lawful rights of the People’s Republic of China is essential both for the protection of the UN Charter and for the cause that the UN must serve under the charter.

Recalling these words, the position paper said the UN is at the centre of the post-World War II international order.

Any attempt to challenge the resolution constitutes not only a challenge to China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, but also a challenge to the authority of the UN and the international order, it said.

Warning that “flagrantly reversing the course of history is absurd and highly dangerous”, the paper said the status of Taiwan as a part of China’s territory has never changed and shall never change.

Master Zhao Ming Wang & Disciples - Beijing

Beijing: Qianfeng Daoism Seeks World Heritage Site Designation! (10.9.2025)

10/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

From what I have seen from the photographs and footage Western travellers have shown me – Master Zhao lives near the Great Wall of China – and always seems to take his guests to this wonderful location. The Zhao Family Home is situated near (or on the boundary with) the mountainous areas of rural Beijing. Daoist “neidan” practice, as well as Taijiquan, is often practiced in these beautiful environs. Of course, Daoist practice is both “easy” and “difficult”. However, if a curious person is interested in Daoist practice, a good place to start is by reading the Dao De Jing (Tao Te Ching) – or “Way Virtue Class”. This may be coupled with the practice of any form of Taijiquan (or internal martial arts – such as Bagua Zhang/Quan or Xinyi-Xingyi), etc. Much progress can be made in a foundational manner until more specific instruction can be gained from a qualified Daoist Master.

China: Authentic Footage – PLA Great Victory March! (5.9.2025)

05/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The PLA also liberated Hainan in 1950 (during April-May) – a sizable island off the coast of South China. After mere months in power, the CPC (via the dedicated might of the PLA) also took on (and defeated) the capitalist West when it invaded North Korea between (1950-1953). Without the development of the PLA by Mao Zedong – there would have been no Socialist Revolution in China. Ordinary Chinese men and women – who have studied the work of Mao Zedong – constitute the “Iron Wall” that is the PLA! Even President Trump stood-up and saluted whilst watching the March on a large TV screen erected in the Oval Office of the White House!
