China: Internet Search-Engine Algorithm to Ensure Workers’ Rights! (26.11.2024)

26/11/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

The statement emphasized the need to improve technical means to detect and identify fake accounts and malicious ranking manipulations, strictly regulating illegal activities that exploit ranking rules to manipulate lists and hype topics.

Besides content and information distribution, the campaign also focuses on the rights of workers and consumers involved in internet services.

The commission’s statement highlighted the need to prevent internet platforms from blindly pursuing profits at the expense of workers providing services.

The number of those workers surpassed 84 million in China as of 2023, according to the All-China Federation of Trade Unions. This group of workers includes food delivery riders, ride-hailing drivers and couriers.

Among them, there are 13 million food delivery riders. In recent years, these riders have often violated traffic rules to deliver food as quickly as possible, due to the requirement by food delivery platforms to deliver orders within a specified time, or face wage deductions.

The statement stressed the importance of preventing platforms from excessively reducing delivery times, which leads to more frequent delivery delays, traffic violations and accidents.

Hereford [1986]: Zen of the Wonky Table! (16.11.2024)

16/11/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

Eventually, “Phil G” left the college and moved down the road to become the “Rector” of St Barnabas Church (situated in College Road). He would invite myself and my friend (a Catholic Priest from Eire) for tea every Sunday afternoon for probably about six months (around 1986). He asked me about (Japanese) Zen Buddhism – and I lent him the book entitled “Zen Buddhism” by Christmas Humphreys [Unwin – 1984] (I have written on the many issues surrounding this man elsewhere). This book had casually come into my possession and became very popular amongst the Student Body at that time. As others wanted to borrow it – I bought up the subject of this book being returned whilst visiting the flat of “Phil G”. He initially said he did not know where it was and had a problem finding it.

China: Stay Away From Cults and Welcome a Better Life! (27.10.2024)

27/10/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

The term “Cult” refers to illegal organizations that use various means to defraud believers of their property or harm their lives, destroy families, and endanger society. Unlike normal religious beliefs, cults often control believers through brainwashing, inciting violence and other means, causing irreparable damage to believers. The country’s crackdown on cults is getting stronger and stronger, but there are still some people who are affected by cults, which not only harms themselves, but also brings great harm to their relatives and society around them.
