Havana: In the Face of the Imperialist Onslaught – Cuba Will Win! Statement of the Revolutionary Government! (21.1.2025)

21/01/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

This new act of aggression by the United States government against the Cuban people shows, once again, the true, cruel, merciless objective of these and so many other measures of siege and suffocation, which are applied against Cuba for the purpose of domination. It is a reaction of impotence in the face of the inability to bend our will and in the face of the respect, sympathy and support that the Revolution inspires among the peoples of the world.

The economic blockade, its reinforcement and the new aggressive measures will continue to weigh, with a very damaging effect, on our economy, the standard of living, the potential for development and the legitimate dreams of justice and well-being of the Cuban people, as has been the case in recent years.

China: Logos Unveiled for 3 “Socialist” Space Missions in 2025! (20.1.2025)

20/01/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

According to the CMSA, crews for the Shenzhou-20 and Shenzhou-21 missions will consist of three astronauts each. Shenzhou-20 is set to dock with the radial port of the space station’s core module, while Shenzhou-21 will dock with its front port.

The main tasks of the astronauts will include extravehicular activities, cargo outbound deliveries via the station’s cargo airlock module, and the conducting of space science experiments and technology tests.

In the second half of 2025, China plans to launch the Tianzhou-9 cargo spacecraft from the Wenchang Space Launch Site in its southern Hainan Province. This mission will deliver supplies for astronauts, propellants to ensure the space station’s operation, various types of payloads, and more.

China’s manned space station project has entered its application and development stage — with two manned spacecraft missions and one to two cargo missions planned annually.

Chinese New Year - 2926-4723! - Year of the [Yin] Wood Green Snake!

Chinese New Year [2025-4723] Year of the [Yin] Wood Green Snake! (15.1.2025)

15/01/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Wearing red is not limited to red clothes, red socks, and red belts, but can also be red jewellery, red mobile phone cases, as long as the items you carry with you are red.

There are two special days when wearing red is appropriate:

i) The first day of the first lunar month, during the Spring Festival, wearing red can add to the festive mood.

ii) The second is the beginning of Spring. As the beginning of the year, the beginning of Spring means the start of a new cycle.

Within China, there is a custom of “Avoiding Spring” (避春 – Bi Chun) at the beginning of Spring, that is, avoiding offending the numerous “Tai Sui” (太岁 – “Grand Aged”) gods that equate to the 12 stars opposite Jupiter (later expanded to 60 deities) – so people choose to wear red on this day in the hope of bringing good luck.

Everyone shapes their own destiny. Hard work, kindness and wise choices will help you succeed.

No matter what – I hope everyone will experience a smooth journey throughout the Year of the Snake (2025-4723) and welcome the arrival of boundless happiness and good luck!

PRC Places Trade with US Ahead of Solidarity with Cuba!

Cuba: Outgoing Biden Removes Socialist State from “Terrorist” List! (15.1.2025)

15/01/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

I thank all those who contributed to the decision announced today by the United States to remove Cuba from the list of state sponsors of terrorism, where it should never have been and which, along with two other measures adopted, has had a high cost for the country and Cuban families .

It is a decision in the right direction, although it was taken late and with limited scope . The blockade and most of the extreme measures that were put in place since 2017 to suffocate the Cuban economy and cause shortages for our people remain in place .

Lin Yuan, Assistant Director of the International Development Department of CFRD, also spoke at the event. He mentioned that the 1,000 bicycles, delivered via the China-Laos Railway — a symbol of the friendship between the two countries — reflect the strong bond between the people of Laos and China.

One of the recipients, Athit Khounthavong, a Lao student, shared his excitement upon receiving a new bicycle. “It was very inconvenient to go to school before, as it took me half an hour to walk. Now, with the bicycle, I can get to school in just 10 minutes. Going to school has become much more convenient!” he said.

Natnael Tamru, the Ethiopian team’s goalkeeper and a taxi driver visiting China for the first time, shared similar sentiments. The 33-year-old praised Rongjiang’s vibrant football atmosphere and said he hopes teams from the Village Super League will one day visit Ethiopia to share the joy of the sport.

During halftime, Ethiopian cheerleaders and Rongjiang’s ethnic minority groups performed on the court.

“This is a great opportunity to showcase our culture to China and help more people learn about Ethiopia,” said Beamlak Biruk, one of the cheerleaders.

“Football attracts people from around the world to share their cultures, and it also allows foreigners to explore Chinese culture,” said Dolla Mihretu Samuel, a member of the Ethiopian team. “Cun Chao has become a platform for communication between China and other countries.”
