“In fact, it is the U.S. that invented the weaponizing of the global information space,” the spokesperson said, adding that the relevant centre of the U.S. State Department which concocted the report is engaged in propaganda and infiltration in the name of “global engagement.” It is a source of disinformation and the command centre of “perception warfare.”
On this occasion, Comrade Thongloun Sisoulith welcomed and highly appreciated the visit and work in Laos PDR of Comrade Liu Chien Shao (along with his delegation) – who sent a warm message to Xi Jinping, General Secretary, President of China – as well as appreciated the bilateral cooperation between Laos and China in the past. This includes the coordination of the Foreign Relations Committee of the Communist Party of China – which has contributed significantly to enhancing the friendship and strategic partnership. This comprehensive and stable relationship has lasted for a long time according to the four- directions between the two parties – the two States and the people of the two ‘Socialist’ nations, as well as creating a Laos-Chinese destiny partnership with high standards, high quality and a higher level of cooperation.
The early Buddhist groups in China mirrored that of the extant Confucian scholiastic system – often forming around married laymen – with disciples taking the surname of the teacher as their ‘Dharma-Name’ and essentially becoming an extension of his family.

“When we had the opportunity to see the water project here, we were very impressed,” he said, adding that Nicaragua can learn from China’s experience in this respect.
Campbell, who arrived in China in May as the Nicaraguan ambassador, has since visited not only Xinjiang but also Shandong and Hebei provinces, as well as Yiwu city, Zhejiang province. He intends to visit all 34 provincial-level regions in the country.

Regarding individuals who are coerced or deceived into engaging in espionage activities abroad, the Counter-Espionage Law has explicitly outlined measures for education and rescue.
