Taiwan scientific research: Pu'er tea mouthwash can prevent tooth decay

Reporters : Wang Yuan and Yang Shumian / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2021/09/09/a103211855.html



It is scientifically proven that tea soup can prevent tooth decay. The natural farming method developed tea powder, and the two results will be published in Elsevier, an international journal, in October.



The mouthwash made from Pu'er tea swishes back and forth in the mouth. The biotech team found that there is an extra cellulite in Pu'er tea, which can inhibit the formation of biofilm and prevent tooth decay.

Zheng Yuxian, a biomedical technology practitioner, said, "There will be a cool tea fragrance in the mouthwash, and then there will be sweetness."

Zeng Zhizheng, a professor at the Institute of Biotechnology at Chung Hsing University, said, "Tea is often known to contain caffeine, catechins, and Pu'er's unique cellulite. I tested all three of them and found that it will prevent us from tooth decay. It’s not that it killed the tooth decay bacteria, it actually prevented it from forming biofilms."

Under the impact of imported low-priced tea, Professor Zeng guided tea farmers to transform into health-care products. He also freeze-dried the tea leaves using natural agricultural methods to make instant pure tea powder for people who have no habit of drinking tea, thereby increasing the output of Taiwan’s tea. It also opened a new way for tea farmers.

Lin Huifen, a biotech practitioner, said, "It is completely natural, and it will dissolve completely immediately after flushing it down."

Zeng Zhizheng said, "We will not charge the medicine, and its unit price will be higher than usual. It is good for their own health, so he hopes to expand this industry slowly and make the organic Sijichun more and more. More, so that Taiwan’s tea can be sustainable."

The Tea Industry and Academia Alliance cooperated with biomedical technology companies to develop the first domestic Pu'er tea mouthwash and natural farming tea powder based on Taiwanese tea. The results will be published in Elsevier in October 2021.

China CDC and Prevention: CCP China has completed preclinical studies on inactivated vaccines against Delta variant
 

The reporter learned from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention today (9th) that CCP China has completed preclinical research on an inactivated vaccine against the Delta variant (Covi72).

In response to the delta variant of SARS-CoV-2, China CDC has carried out the research and development of inactivated vaccines.

Wu Guizhen, Chief Expert of Biosafety at the China CDC and Prevention, said, "We have successfully isolated several Delta strains from clinical samples imported from Guangdong, Shanghai, Beijing and other countries with a relatively large number of epidemics. Through three consecutive generations of cloning and purification, the vaccine strain selection and identification and the establishment of a three-level seed bank have been preliminarily completed, and now it has been prepared from the laboratory to the production workshop before large-scale production."

Each vaccine research and development unit has also carried out research on broad-spectrum or multivalent recombinant protein vaccines against different variants of covi. Research and development of adenovirus vector vaccines and nucleic acid vaccines against Beta and Delta strains have been carried out. Some units have completed experiments on animal effectiveness and safety were carried out. 

Experts said that although my country's inactivated vaccines are still effective against Covi72, new coronaviruses are still emerging new mutations. We still need to be prepared, even if the virus mutates severely in the future, it completely escapes the preventive effect of existing vaccines. It can also produce new vaccines quickly and on a large scale.

Jilin University: Smokers are more likely to be obese
 
Reporter : Tang Feng, China Science News /  http://news.sciencenet.cn/htmlnews/2019/3/424020.shtm

Smoking may not only harm your lungs, but it may also come with a "swimming ring". Recently, a study published in "Science Reports" pointed out that compared with non-smokers, smokers have a larger waist circumference, although their BMI (Body Mass Index) may be lower than that of non-smokers. The results of these studies indicate that smoking may cause abdominal fat accumulation, even if the weight is not increased.

Jin Lina of Jilin University and colleagues analyzed the data of 16,142 smokers and non-smokers from Jilin Province to explore the relationship between smoking and obesity. Smokers are defined as smoking at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime and still People who smoke. Compared with non-smokers, smokers have a smaller BMI and a smaller waist circumference. However, further analysis showed that with the same BMI, the waist circumference of smokers was larger than that of non-smokers. With the growth of waist circumference, the correlation between waist circumference and smoking will become stronger, especially for women. This may mean that the larger a person's waist circumference, the stronger the impact of smoking on him/her, and women with larger waist circumferences need to quit smoking.

It is reported that all the participants in the study are from Jilin Province. The proportions of overweight, obesity and smoking in this province are 32.3%, 14.6% and 39.1% respectively. These figures are much higher than the national average. Therefore, Jilin Province is more suitable for studying smoking. The relationship with obesity. However, the researchers also reminded that since all results are from population data from the same province, they may not be fully generalized to other populations.

Moderna is developing a single-dose vaccine that combines covid and flu boosters

On 9 September 2021, Moderna announced that it is in the early stages of developing a single-dose vaccine that protects against both flu and covid.

Moderna’s chief executive, Stéphane Bancel, said in a news release. “Today we are announcing the first step in our novel respiratory vaccine program with the development of a single dose vaccine that combines a booster against COVID-19 and a booster against flu.”

Moderna’s current mRNA vaccine is being administered as a double-dose vaccine, with a second shot required two weeks after the first for full immunity.

The vaccine encodes or teaches cells to make harmless the “spike protein” found on the surface of the coronavirus, according to the CDC.

Human immune systems recognize the spike protein as harmful and build antibodies to fight it, thereby protecting against future infection.

Moderna’s combination vaccine will require only a single shot and use mRNA technology to encode covi spike proteins as well as hemagglutinin glycoproteins, which bind the flu virus to infected cells.
The vaccine is designed to be a booster for those who have received an initial vaccination.

CCTV host Dong Qing was criticized as a "double-faced person". The report is not simple in two points

Since Zhao Wei's incident, there have been several incidents in a row recently, showing that Xi Jinping's authorities have become more and more explicit about Jiang Zemin's forces. The CCP’s inner-party struggles are all secret fights. This is different from American politics. Many of them are open. Even if the CCP is fighting behind the scenes, they will pretend to be nonchalant in front of the stage, and then suddenly announce the results. It's going to be a big surprise.

Such things happen constantly. Therefore, if the CCP suddenly announces that some old political elders from the previous dynasty, or their right-hand men, have fallen from the horse, don’t be overly surprised.

On 5 September, the mainland media "China News" published an article reporting that Chinese netizens bombarded CCTV host Dong Qing, saying that she not only hosted programs of traditional Chinese literature, but also had a son of American nationality, who was a "double-faced person." .

There are two points in this report that are not simple. The first is not simple, it is the Chinese Communist Party’s media, which directly criticizes the CCTV host for political criticism, which is by no means casual and unreasonable; the second is not simple, it is the so-called "netizens" cited in this media report. Not simple. Sometimes I also browse the "Weibo" on the mainland and look at the message area on Weibo. I find that many real mainland netizens are very smart and know the truth about the Communist Party more or less.

Last week, Hu Xijin posted an article on Weibo, denying Li Guangman’s article and negating the "Second Cultural Revolution." Many "understandable people" left comments below, mocking Hu Xijin. Everyone believed that, regardless of whether they accepted it or not, the "Second Cultural Revolution." It is actually happening in the actions of the CCP.

But why there are always so-called "netizens" who always feel that they are insincere or insincere or insincere in what they say. I suspect that these "netizens" are actually the CCP. The "net army", dressed as a "netizen", will lead the way in the comment area and in civil discussions.

So for Dong Qing, the family members who have American nationality, who speak anti-American and go to the United States physically, there are many, and there are a lot of high-ranking party officials. They are all like this. They may have permanent residences in different countries. Resident status, even a passport. For example, Huawei princess Meng Wanzhou. After she was arrested in Canada, the country's CBC TV revealed that Meng Wanzhou has seven passports!

What about Meng Wanzhou herself? During her house arrest in Canada, she often spoke out in public about loving the motherland and wishing the motherland a happy birthday. According to the logic of the so-called "netizens", since you are so patriotic, why did you get seven passports and buy a luxury house in Vancouver, Canada with your husband and children? Isn't this also a "double-faced person".

Just to say, this kind of thing is everywhere in the Chinese Communist system, and netizens with a little wisdom will not deliberately use this to spray. So I very much suspect that most of the CCP’s cyber army is doing this deliberately, and then it is quoted by the party media and self-produced and sold. This has its purpose. First, it is in line with the trend of the CCP to promote nationalism, and second, Dong Qing's background may provoke the CCP authorities.

Dong Qing is 47 years old. She joined CCTV in 2002 and hosted the CCTV Spring Festival Gala for more than ten years. There are many CCTV's more prominent programs, all hosted by her, and she is also a well-known host in the mainland. But her background is not simple.

Not to mention, it is said that from April to May 2020, Dong Qing’s husband Mi Chunlei was continuously exposed by Lu Media, exposing his fortune, saying that he was closely related to Zeng Xianbo, the actual controller of Furi Motor Company. . Zeng Xianbo had a special relationship with the Ling Jihua who was sacked in December 2014 and participated in the plot against Xi Jinping's coup d'etat, and was later investigated.

In January 2015, Jiemian News, a subsidiary of Shanghai Poster Industry, broke the news that Zeng Xianbo was under investigation, involving his attempt to help Ling Jihua's wife Gu Liping escape to Japan, but failed. Gu Liping was eventually caught in Qingdao. There are many intersections between Zeng Xianbo and Gu Liping. More news pointed out that Dong Qing's husband had "business" dealings not only with the Ling Jihua family, but also with the Shanghai Gang.

Dong Qing, after the fall of the Deputy Minister of Public Security of the Communist Party of China in 2020, reported that she was once taken away by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and was considered Sun Lijun's mistress. Sun Lijun’s fall from the horse was accused of participating in the "Inverted Xi coup," and his backstage leaders were Jiang Zemin and Zeng Qinghong. The Ling Jihua we mentioned just now was once a party of Bo Xilai, and he has a close relationship with Zhou Yongkang. In other words, Dong Qing and her husband have ties to all members of the "Inverted Xi coup" group.

Today, Ling Jihua, Bo Xilai, Zhou Yongkang, Sun Lijun and others have all fallen, but there are also two Jiang Zemin and Zeng Qinghong families. Therefore, Dong Qing was targeted by the Chinese Communist Party media again, which is very intriguing. Everyone knows that the CCP has always had an infighting tactic called "cut skirts", which is to start from the periphery of key figures, and then gradually touch the core.

However, some friends may disagree, thinking that Dong Qing is just a small pawn at best, maybe not even a pawn. What is the use of the CCP's use of her. However, she is useless by herself, but a lot of similar people have had an accident, which shows that it is indeed famous.

Kong Qingdong was banned on Weibo. The authorities frequently used Mao Zuo to operate. What kind of medicine did he sell?

There is a well-known "Mao Zuo" on the mainland called Kong Qingdong. He is a professor of the Chinese Department of Peking University. His public statements often show extreme hatred of the so-called Western capitalist liberal ideas. His speech and behavior are often incompatible with "Peking University professors". Above, because of his remarks, it is often "not marginal." But logically speaking, such a character should be in line with the appetite of the CCP authorities who are now pursuing Western culture, right?

However, people discovered that Kong Qingdong's Weibo was suddenly "banned" recently. The last update was on 25 August but the specific remarks are still unclear to the outside world.

But taking a look at Kong Qingdong's past, everyone will find that he is really well-deserved for being named "Mao Zuo". In 2010, Kong Qingdong touted North Korea’s system of “main ideology” and publicly expressed his yearning for North Korea’s system; in 2012, Kong Qingdong, who could not understand the situation, also publicly shouted for Bo Xilai, who had fallen from the horse and was “singing red and fighting black” in Chongqing. Even said that the arrest of Bo Xilai by the authorities was a "traitor traitor" approach. After the fall of Bo Xilai, the mainland internet spread a list of Bo Xilai's plans to be promoted after the successful coup. There was "Kong Qingdong" in it, and Bo planned to let him be the "Minister of Propaganda." Wang Lijun, who fled the US consulate, also supported Mao Zuo Kong Qingdong before breaking up with Bo Xilai. This group of guys had close contacts. Friends who were familiar with the situation know that before Bo Xilai's fall, Kong Qingdong and others were in China. In the public opinion circle, the performance is very high-profile and arrogant, and now it has disappeared a lot.

From this point of view, the ban on Kong Qingdong may be related to his previous background, and secondly it may also be related to the CCP’s recent "Second Cultural Revolution" and Kong Qingdong's tendency to make Mao Zuo comments.

Xi Jinping "backdoors power" and Liu He shouts to support "private enterprises" to reflect the state of mind

I analyzed with you in the program in June this year that Xi Jinping was "walking a tightrope" between Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping. Don’t dare not to be left, nor to be too left. We must keep the Communist Party’s painting skin to defend power, but also dare not let the real Communists of Mao Zedong’s era control public opinion, because that would bring turmoil, madness, rebellion and rebellion. Subversion is inherent in the genes of the Communist Party, and Xi Jinping cannot control it, so he uses the Communist Party's nondescript to maintain his rule.

On May 12 this year, the authorities arrested Mao Zuoists in various places on a large scale, fearing that they would engage in related activities and in turn threaten Xi Jinping's rule. This is why, while speeding up his left turn, Xi Jinping also asked all major party media of the CCP to republish Deng Xiaoping’s theory from June 4 to 7 this year. The only standard.

I think this is the same explanation. Hu Xijin posted on his personal WeChat and Weibo last week, denying the "Second Cultural Revolution", but did not dare to mention the word "Cultural Revolution" throughout the article for fear of encountering the taboo of the authorities. It can also explain why the Vice Premier Liu He of the Communist Party of China made a high-profile statement on September 6 to support the development of the private economy, and the policy guidelines of the authorities will not change. It seems to be putting out the fire for the "Cultural Revolution 2.0". In fact, the above examples all reflect the current state of mind of the Xi Jinping administration: desperately turning to the left in the situation and continuing to pretend to be; on the surface, use the dead skin of the Communist Party to frighten People are actually borrowed to build Xi Jinping's own dictatorship.

Xi Jinping is now using the empty shell and evil sign of the Communist Party to consolidate power. What he needs is not the "Communist Party". What he needs is "power", absolute power. Whether you desperately turn left or the second Cultural Revolution, you all used the scary "costume" of the Communist Party in acting, because it is easy to use, and the mainland people still fear this "costume" and Xi Jinping is using it to grab it. The "nutrients" in all areas of society required by the dictatorship. The spirit of the Communist Party has long since dissipated. Those Mao Zuo foolishly thought that Xi Jinping was going to resurrect the Communist zombies. They put on zombies and went out of the city to greet the new Lord of the Red Dynasty. They were beaten to death by chaotic clubs. These people really guessed what Xi Jinping meant wrong.

In fact, to some extent, the Communist Party has long since died. The red dignitaries in the past, now under the leadership of Xi Jinping, are just "gangsters" wearing the hat of the Communist Party and being as wicked as the Communist Party. In the Mao era, many people were deeply deceived and obsessed by the so-called communist ideals. Now, except for a few foolish Mao Zuo, no one believes them. Those Communist theories have long become purely "communist cult theoretical tools for compulsory brainwashing of the people." ".

However, after all, Xi Jinping still inherits the Communist Party's mantle. The CCP system is still going on. The bad and evil things it has done in history, including the past and the present, will all be liquidated.

This is the "Kong Qingdong" mentioned by Mao Zuo just now. All these are personal opinions. So let's get back to the point, that is, now that Xi Jinping's authorities are targeting Jiang faction more and more, there are some signs of this. The current situation of Dong Qing and Kong Qingdong is part of it, which is not very eye-catching. Let's talk about another character below, so we have to mention "Zhao Wei".

Zhao Wei "missing" has more wealth than Ma Yun? She knows too many things about Jiang faction

People have been chasing Zhao Wei’s affairs recently, but Zhao Wei herself is still "evaporating from the world". Her IG account, after deleting a few of the latest posts at the end of last month, as of September 7th, the above is still It's just a photo updated on 23 July, and the description of the account is still the mysterious three words "hahaha".

In the previous program, we analyzed Zhao Wei’s intricate political and business relationship with everyone, showing that she has an extraordinary relationship with Zeng Qinghong’s younger brother, Zeng Qinghuai. She and her husband Huang Youlong also have business dealings with Xiao Jianhua, who launders money for Jiangpai. , And the suppressed Jack Ma, the relationship is also very good. Behind her, she was involved in such a large network of relationships, and now it has been reported that key figures in this network have been "suicided."

The overseas media "Watch China" published an exclusive news on September 6, citing the insights of "Yang Guang", the chief author of Hong Kong's former "Sentinel" magazine. Yang Guang said that he has been working as a media in Hong Kong for many years, and he knows the entertainment and political circles of the mainland and Hong Kong very well. He said that the entertainment industry is full of corruption, and many people help evil forces do bad things. For the sake of money and fame, everything Can do it. He said that Zhao Wei is not an ordinary entertainer, and she has great power ambitions, and even revealed that Zhao Wei and Huang Youlong have more wealth than Ma Yun. This seems to be the first time I have heard of it. Yang Guang went on to say that Zhao Wei was still a key figure in the connection between the Jiang faction and the Western leftist predator "Soros". If something goes wrong with Zhao Wei, a lot of things may be shaken out.

Xi authorities and Soros "confronted" Jiang faction worried that Zhao Wei's speech indiscriminately killed people?

It also happens that recently, the American financial crocodile Soros frequently published articles in mainstream media such as the Wall Street Journal or the Financial Times, criticizing Xi Jinping, saying that Xi Jinping is the most dangerous enemy of the "open society." The Chinese Communist Party's official media "Global Times" also recently issued a response to Soros, denoting "global economic terrorist", "the most evil person in the world", "Son of Satan" and other titles to describe Soros. Soros has a very bad reputation in the Western conservative camp, and people's perception of him is really similar to the "titles" of the Global Times.

Soros strongly supports the leftist movement in the West, but why is the artillery focused on Xi Jinping now? On the contrary, Yang Guang’s revelations above show that the Jiang faction of the CCP has contacts with Soros. Moreover, the "Global Times" mentioned in an article as early as 2016 that it linked Soros with the Jiang faction, and questioned Soros's cooperation with the Jiang faction to create financial chaos for the Xi authorities.

Then Yang Guang broke the news that Zhao Wei, who threaded the needle between Jiang’s family and Soros, would definitely be afraid of her talking indiscriminately if Xi Jinping’s authorities were in the hands of Jiang Zemin and Zeng Qinghong’s family, and that the CCP’s National Security Bureau often used torture to extract confessions. I saw that some people broke the news about the torture of political prisoners interrogated by the CCP’s State Security Department. "The CCP has a lot of tricks to consolidate people. So now that Zhao Wei has been out of contact with the outside world for so long, I really don't know what the situation is. If it has been controlled by the Chinese Communist Party's National Security, it may experience terrible things. Now someone in the mainland has broken the news that after Zhao Wei was arrested, Jiang faction was worried that the next key figure would be confessed, and that it was already killing people.

Zhao Wei was completely banned by the authorities on the evening of August 26, while Jin Renqing, the former finance minister of the Chinese Communist Party, was burned to death in a fire at her home on August 27. On August 31, a report pointed out that Jin Renqing was an important figure in the Jiang faction. Jiang Zemin even thought about promoting him as prime minister. In 2007, Jiang Zemin transferred more than two billion U.S. dollars to Switzerland to help Jiang do this. The character is Jin Renqing, and the money used is the so-called CCP’s treasury. The news broke that on the evening of the 27th, Jin Renqing, who was 1.8 meters tall, was burnt to only 1.2 meters in the fire. Before his death, a member of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection informed him and committed suicide.

Xi is exploring the details of Jiang’s family, Zhou Jiangyong’s fall from the horse and Zhao Wei’s incident

So, why did Jin Renqing die just after Zhao Wei's accident? The news said that Zhao Wei had entered, and she confessed that she had formed sisters with Fan Bingbing and Ruby Ruby, and that the godfather of the three was "Jin Renqing". Yang Guang, the media person we mentioned earlier, also said that Zhao Wei and Jin Renqing were burned to death in an accident. The two incidents are linked together. They are even related to people such as Ma Yun and Wu Yifan. It was Xi Jinping who did it for him. Find out the Jiang family's "powerful circle" in the entertainment and political circles.

Even many recent cases are related. For example, it is now reported that on 21 August, Hangzhou Municipal Party Secretary Zhou Jiangyong fell from the horse, confessing the relationship between Ma Yun and Zhao Wei. Ma Yun opened the way for Zhao Wei in officialdom. Then on August 26, Zhao Wei was banned, and on the 27th, the golden man celebrated the fire. die. In these cases, in chronological order, some internal connections can really be seen.

According to the current information, Zhao Wei's background is bigger than we thought, even transnational.

In China, Zhao Wei is the matchmaker in the entertainment industry to liaise with Ma Yun and a group of politicians, and also helps Jiang Zemin and Zeng Qinghong's family to launder money. Abroad, "rumors" refer to Zhao Wei cooperating with the Clinton family in the United States, and also to provide economic and financial intelligence to Clinton and other deep-seated government forces in the United States. In November 2016, a big V on the mainland Weibo pointed out that the CCP is outside Saudi Arabia. Hillary Clinton was the second largest foreign funder in the presidential campaign. The CCP’s largest personal political donation came from Zhao Wei, a "little swallow." "This statement is mutually corroborated by different sources.

The publication of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection starts with Zhao Wei capital, and the party media all brush and block "Old Jiang"

On 6 September, the Chinese Communist Party’s Political and Legal Affairs Commission’s “Legal System Daily” also started Zhao Wei and published a report entitled "Investigation on the Chaos of the Capital Market in the Showbiz and Investment Scams Disrupted by Crazy Capital", naming Zhao Wei and her husband Huang Youlong’s capital in the past 20 years. layout. It is said that Zhao Wei has been in the capital market since 2000. In 2002, he established Beijing Prince Culture Communication Company; in 2003, Zhao Wei, who was only 27 years old, became one of the ten largest shareholders of Chongqing Road and Bridge Company. In response, I didn't understand investment, but my family was taking care of it. In 2015, after Zhao Wei's holding of Tang De Film and Television went public on the A-share market, the market value soared 150 times, and Zhao Wei instantly benefited 120 million yuan.

"Legal Daily" stated that Zhao Wei has built her own business empire and has invested in Ali Pictures, making money with Jack Ma "being good news," and she has also been called "female Buffett." There are many similarities between the initial information about Zhao Wei and the breaking news about Zhao Wei, which makes people feel that Zhao Wei's background is indeed unusual.

So, if Zhao Wei is indeed controlled now, Xi Jinping's authorities can get quite a lot of domestic and foreign intelligence from her, and even the situation between the Jiang family and Soros can be grasped. Recently, Soros scolded Xi Jinping. Some media even secretly praised Jiang for relegating Xi. It was suspected that the Jiang faction was operating behind the scenes and counterattacked Xi Jinping.

On the contrary, the propaganda machinery controlled by Xi Jinping's authorities has apparently deliberately "blocked" Jiang Zemin in recent days. For example, on 6 September, both the People's Daily and Xinhua News Agency published articles on "fighting floods," but Jiang Zemin, who was in office during the Yangtze River flood in 1998, did not mention a word. This may have something to do with the current political situation. The Jiang faction has all the troubles, and overseas Jiang faction forces are also ready to fight back. The tide of the CCP's internal fighting has begun to be unable to stop it, and gradually, more and more will overflow. Let the outside world know.

Japanese study: Vaccines encounter Mu mutant, only 1/7 of their protection


Research by the Japanese medical community has found that the neutralizing antibodies produced by the human body through vaccination against covid are only as good as the original strain against Mu mutant (Covi21), about 1/7 left.

According to a report by the Central News Agency, Mu mutant of covi were first discovered in Colombia, South America, and Japan has confirmed two cases in airport quarantine since June this year.

Japan’s TBS TV station reported that a research team composed of Associate Professor Sato Yoshi from the Institute of Medical Science of the University of Tokyo and others found that the neutralizing antibody that inhibits the activity of the virus through vaccination and other methods found that compared with the original virus strain, When facing Covi21 with antibodies, the protective power is only about 1/7.

The Yomiuri Shimbun reported that the protection of the vaccine against Mu mutants is even lower than that of Delta and Beta mutants.

TV Asahi reported that when Sato studied the effects of neutralizing antibodies on the original strain and mutant strains, it was found that the neutralizing antibody had the worst protective effect against Covi21 compared to other mutant strains.

But Sato also emphasized that in addition to triggering neutralizing antibodies, vaccines can also improve "immune system memory" and "cellular immunity", so it's not that vaccination is completely useless.

Mu mutant, also known as B.1.621, was first discovered in Colombia in January, and it is one of the five “mutants to watch out for” listed by the WHO.

According to the latest WHO epidemiological report, Covi21 is listed as variant requiring attention because "Mu variant has a series of mutations that may have immune escape characteristics", and further research is needed.

Beautiful bird echoes like a baby



A lyrebird, a species endemic to Australia, is kept in an Australian zoo. Named Echo, it has talent in imitating a baby's cry. It has driven visitors and netizens crazy since the video footage on the bird went viral on The New York Post. 

Lyrebirds are usually shy and difficult to approach. They either sound alarm, seek cover and freeze. Little visual information about its behaviour was rarely documented. 

Echo is an exception.

A giant “Ladder of Heaven” appeared in Shenyang twice. Netizens: Connecting heaven and earth, spectacle!

Reporter : Luo Tingting  / Editor: Wen Hui / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2021/09/10/a103212566.html



In Shenyang opposite Shenyang Expo and Khos Hotel is a tower-like beam of light escalating down from a mushroom of light. The local weather bureau could not explain the phenomenon logically.

A few days ago, a rare “spectacle” was discovered in Shenyang. A huge, unknown beam of light appeared above a shopping mall. The people at the scene were shocked by this strange scene and shot them with their mobile phones, and the video went viral on the Internet. Netizens exclaimed "Heaven and earth are connected, wonders!"

The mainland media "Ran News" reported on 9 September 2021 that at 6.45 pm on 7 September, a rare spectacle appeared in the sky above the shopping mall near the Hunhe River in Shenyang. A huge beam of light shone from the sky. There are many horizontal lines in the beam of light, and it looks like a "ladder" inserted into the sky from a distance.

Many passersby used their mobile phones to take pictures of this spectacular and bizarre scene, and the video was circulated on Weibo. Netizens exclaimed, "This is obviously an alien spacecraft." "Heaven and earth are connected, wonders!" "This was a matter of Manchu civil and military discussions in ancient times."

In response to this anomaly, the chief meteorologist of the Shenyang Meteorological Bureau said that this is the Tyndall effect, and the water vapor shows bright white light bands after being irradiated. But it was questioned by netizens: "The Meteorological Bureau is afraid that the explanation is not unreasonable, so I made it up." "The brick family's explanation is full of nonsense, and the controlled tool man deliberately conceals the truth. The topic of aliens has been suppressed by big data. It's hard to see relevant information." "Seeing is believing, what experts explain is not the only answer!"

On 7 September, a giant "ladder" appeared in the sky in Shenyang, and the video went viral on the Internet. Meteorological experts called this a natural phenomenon, which was refuted by netizens. 

"Ran News" combed and found that on 14 September 2020, a similar anomaly appeared in the sky in Shenyang. The video taken by netizens showed that multiple unidentified flying objects appeared above the same shopping mall, and beams of light were shooting towards the ground. 

Netizens commented, "Watching the video seems to be at the same location last year this year. How could this be a natural phenomenon?" "It's still in the same place twice????? This is definitely the water drop detector launched by the Trisolaran!!! The door of the tunnel!"

Cats can detect cancer and human changes


Animals’ sense of smell is often much more sensitive than humans. Regardless of environmental or human changes, even though there are only minor abnormalities, fury animals can sometimes detect early. 

A woman in the United States keeps a pet cat named Oggy. It usually has a good relationship with the woman but one day it suddenly laid on her left chest and kept meowing, making the woman feel quite puzzled. One day after she was unwell, she found out that she was diagnosed with stage III breast cancer by accident. She finally figured out why Oggy would perform these strange behaviour.

According to comprehensive foreign media reports, Kate King-Scribbins, who lives in St. Paul, Minnesota, saved the pet cat Oggy 15 years ago and also raised 2 cats and 2 dogs with her husband. Among all the pets, Oggy likes to snuggle next to Kate the most, but gradually she realizes that Oggy’s behavior has become a little abnormal. Suddenly, it particularly likes to lie on her left chest and make calls, even though she tries to squeeze Oggy and pushed it away but Oggy still insisted on lying near her left chest and not leaving.

It was not until Kate was awakened by a burst of severe pain one morning that she accidentally touched a lump in her left chest. After a doctor's diagnosis, she was diagnosed with "stage III breast cancer." It was then that Kate suddenly understood that Oggy’s peculiar behaviour a while ago turned out to be for a reason, and said gratefully, “Before the diagnosis of breast cancer, I reviewed the changes in Oggy's behavior. I really believe that Oggy was reminding me. Pay attention to the increasing danger in my body.” At the same time, the doctor also discovered that Kate had a very rare genetic mutation that not only caused breast cancer, but also caused hereditary diffuse gastric cancer. She also underwent double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery and had her stomach removed in 2019.

The report pointed out that Oggy continued to do the same behavior during Kate's chemotherapy, and she stopped paying attention to her left chest until after she had undergone mastectomy. 

Kate went on to say, "It would be great if I could realize what Oggy wanted to tell me. I think if it can speak, it will definitely say that I am stupid, and pointed out that it has been trying to tell me that there is cancer growth in my body over the past few months. The question also keeps suggesting that I have to go for a checkup as soon as possible.” 

Kate further sighed and said that if she noticed Oggy’s abnormal behaviour and listened to its opinions, she might be able to detect her cancer earlier.

In the end, Kate also revealed that cancer is always a part of her life. In addition to creating who she is today, she will always thank her family, friends and pets for their company. In addition, she also realizes that many cancer patients who are like family members will continue to carry out breast cancer treatment and participate in a clinical study in the future.

Myanmar's "parallel government" declares war on the military government, 7 clashes exploded on the first day

Reporter : Zheng Gusheng / https://www.ntdtv.com/gb/2021/09/09/a103212333.html / Image : Web Screenshot



The Myanmar military government overthrew the democratically elected government and launched a brutal suppression in the country. Myanmar people generally suspect that the Chinese Communist Party regime supports the coup behind the scenes. A few days ago, Myanmar's "National Unity Government" (NUG) officially declared war on the military government, which means that a civil war has begun. It is reported that seven armed conflicts occurred on the first day of the declaration of war.

Du Keke, a Burmese in Taiwan, revealed to Radio Free Asia that NUG made 13 appeals, including that administrative personnel appointed by the military should leave their posts immediately, members of the security forces joined the NUG, and ethnic minority troops on the border attacked the military and the people. He repeated NUG's advice, "Don't go out to work. Don't go out to school. Don't travel to avoid innocent casualties."

Du Keke said that the military government’s terror suppression for seven months has caused thousands of people to be killed or arrested, arousing public outrage. The NUG that declared war has been supported by more than 80% of Burmese people, who are determined to fight for democracy.

According to Chen Qiming, a Burmese in Taiwan, the Burmese have been unable to wait for foreign aid and decided to launch a civil war to overthrow the dictatorship. The NUG issued lottery tickets to Burmese abroad in August, with the goal of raising 500 million U.S. Dollars for military training and weapons purchases. The National Unity Government announced that the fundraising has exceeded the standard.

Mr. Yang, a Burmese Chinese from Yangon, revealed that on the day the unity government declared war, armed conflicts occurred in seven provinces at the same time, including PDF (People’s Defense Forces), KIA (Kachin Independence Army), KNU (Karen National Union), etc. The national armed forces and the unity government cooperate.

After the Myanmar military government coup, the local people suspected that the CCP secretly supported the coup, so they went to the CCP's embassy in Myanmar to protest.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin confirmed on 31 August 2021 that Sun Guoxiang, Special Envoy for Asian Affairs, visited Myanmar from 21 to 28 August 2021 to meet with the military leader Min Aung Hlaing. This is the first special envoy of the Chinese Communist Party to visit Myanmar after the military coup.

Chen Shanlin, director of Taiwan’s Association for Foreign Relations, pointed out that the CCP’s intervention in Myanmar is to obtain resource benefits. In the past, regardless of whether the Burmese military, the resistance army, or the frontier national army, most of the weapons were bought from the CCP. The attitude of the CCP is that whoever is obedient will support more. The Myanmar government will help the rebels less if it is obedient. The Myanmar government will support the army if it is not obedient. Therefore, most people in Myanmar hate the CCP, including the military government.

Residents panic over China's Jiangsu Tianwan nuclear power plant accident


On Wednesday (8 September 2021), the National Nuclear Safety Administration of the Communist Party of China announced that Unit 6 of the "Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant" had abnormal conditions at around 7 am on 27 August.

According to the report, the detection instrument of Unit 6 of the Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant in Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province flashed and issued a “level 2 alarm for the air γ dose rate in the air inlet of the control room”. After the inspection, the operator said to the outside that the other standby detection instrument of the unit showed no abnormality, and the radioactivity level measured on the spot was normal. Therefore, it was judged that the detection instrument was faulty and an alarm was sent by mistake.

This is the second accident in just over two months since the Continental Nuclear Safety Administration announced on June 7 that the Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant Unit 6 had an abnormal opening of the high-pressure regulating valve of the steam turbine, which triggered the shutdown of the unit.

Although the accident was officially defined as an accident, the usual non-disclosure and concealment practices when various incidents under the Chinese Communist Party took place have caused the nearby residents to panic about the safety of the Tianwan Nuclear Power Plant.

New study: Pro-communist Internet disinformation campaign encourages Americans to take to the streets to protest


A recent research report in the United States pointed out that a pro-CCP online group consisting of hundreds of fake accounts, in addition to continuously expanding its power in the virtual world and promoting the CCP’s influence In addition, it is also trying to influence the real society of the United States.

A new study released by the US cybersecurity company FIREEYE on 8 September 2021 found that hundreds of fake accounts in a pro-CCP network had a coordinated action. In addition to using Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, they used Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. The scope also involves 30 social media platforms and more than 40 online forums; in addition to English and Chinese, the languages ​​used include Russian, German, Spanish, Korean and Japanese.

The report said, "These findings indicate that the behind-the-scenes participants of the movement have greatly expanded their online activities and are trying to build influence on as many platforms as possible to reach a wider variety of global audiences."

This pro-communist fake account network was initially discovered to discredit Hong Kong’s anti-Chinese democracy movement. After that, they launched a network of fake information propaganda that the new crown virus originated from the United States. Racist discussions encouraged Americans to take to the streets to protest.

John Hultquist, vice president of Mandiant Threat Intelligence, a subsidiary of FireEye, said that such activities are “almost certainly supported by the government, or directly through the government. Institutions, either through third-party contractors".

Gordon Chang, a well-known American expert on CCP China, said, "We have seen many examples of Beijing (the CCP) mobilizing people to spread their ideas. Beijing is not only trying to control narratives within China, but also narratives abroad."

Former U.S. Deputy National Security Adviser Matthew Pottinger commented, "One of the party’s (CCP)’s latest weapons is the use of U.S. social media platforms. In the past few years, Beijing has flooded U.S. platforms with public and covert propaganda. , And expand (effect) through its agents and cyberbots. These propaganda are not only whitewashing Beijing’s policies, but also exacerbating social tensions within the United States and other target countries."

North Korean military parade is abnormal, Kim Jong-un appears slim but does not see "the world's strongest weapon"

On 9 September 2021, North Korea held a military parade for the 73rd anniversary of its founding in Pyongyang.

Kim Jong-un attended and presided over the event, but did not speak. Even so, he is still one of the focuses of most attention. Wearing a light-colored suit and tie with the same color, he looks slimmer than he was a few months ago.

Another point that has attracted attention from the outside world is that North Korea has not displayed missiles or other important weapons to put pressure on the U.S. government.

Many people still remember that before Bi came to power in January this year, North Korea showed off its so-called "world's most powerful weapon"-submarine-launched ballistic missiles at the military parade. But the photos of the parade this time showed that the scale of the weapons they displayed was reduced, and only conventional weapons such as multiple rocket launchers and tractors carrying anti-tank missiles were released.

In addition, Kim Jong-un inspected mainly the Red Guards and Social Security Army, the emergency epidemic prevention column responsible for the prevention and control of the epidemic, the Ministry of Health column, the Red Youth Guards, and the mechanized column composed of motorcycle and tractor units.

Yang Moo-jin, a professor at Seoul Korea Studies University and a former South Korean government adviser, said that Kim Jong-un reviewed the military departments that were "not too provocative." Send diplomatic messages."

So, how did North Korea suddenly change its style?

Hong Min, a senior researcher at the Korea Unification Research Institute, analyzed that the North Korean people are now suffering from the covid epidemic, and public grievances may continue to accumulate. Therefore, the North Korean regime "feels the necessity of establishing domestic unity."

The CCP navy will appear at the door of the United States? Analysis: That's a dream

At the same time when North Korea is rarely low-key, Hu Xijin, the editor-in-chief of the mouthpiece media "Global Times" on the CCP's side, is very high-profile, and came out again to shout and scream.

On the 8th, the USS Carl Vinson Strike Group (VINCSG) sailed into the South China Sea, and the Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Benfold also sailed to the waters near Mischief Reef in the Spratly Islands. The outside world believes that the United States is challenging the so-called "Maritime Traffic Safety Law" of the CCP, supporting freedom of navigation, and working with allies to maintain an international order based on rules.

However, the PLA military jumped on the same day and said that the U.S. military had "intruded illegally" without their "approval." Hu Xijin also followed the direction of the wind and sent out a related commentary video late in the night. The same text was published on the "Circle Time" on the 9th.

Hu Xijin claimed that what the United States did was a "blatant provocation" and that the CCP "will inevitably take countermeasures." How to counter it? He urged that the Chinese Communist Party's warships must speed up to appear in Guam and Hawaii, threatening that "in the not too distant future, the United States will definitely see the People's Liberation Army appear on its doorstep."

Hu Xijin also claimed that if the United States does not change its behaviour in the South China Sea, "China and the United States will have an accident in the South China Sea sooner or later," and the CCP's warships must be prepared to "win the United States when a large-scale military conflict breaks out."

Hu Xijin's clamor, even Weibo netizens couldn't help but ridicule. Someone left a message saying, "This mouth is "invincible in the world"" and "The old Huzuijiao has won." Some people also said, "Don't brag, it's like this at the door, and go to Hawaii. What courage the Taliban gave you?"

Others said, "Is it territorial waters? Just hit it, not just don't call it! It is said that according to the maritime convention, artificial islands cannot be built. Everyone is doing this. Isn't it a mess?"

"Here we are buying a lot of U.S. bonds. Most of the central bank's storage is in U.S. dollar assets, and gold is also in the United States. Can you release the data on the children of cadres who go to the United States? Why did the Tianjin talks open the first item on the U.S. list? What about Chinese officials and their family members going to the U.S. for visas? There are indeed, but not all, people who have been brainwashed by (you). Let’s wash and sleep."

Hu Xijin dared to say these words in the public, is there any credibility?

Epoch Times columnist Wang He stated that the CCP’s bullying and militarization in the South China Sea violates the United Nations Law of the Sea. The United States does not recognize it. That’s why it has "freedom of navigation" to challenge. The United States maintains a "rule-based" approach. International order".

In addition, the CCP is vigorously building a "blue water navy," which is a type of navy that can extend its maritime power to ocean and deep sea areas and has expeditionary combat capabilities. Apart from the United States, they are the only regime under construction with two aircraft carriers. However, it will probably take 20 years to catch up with the current level of the United States. Now I want to be on an equal footing with the US Navy. That is a dream, that is, brainwashing the people and cannot be taken seriously.

Does the CCP want to "govern global human rights" and export evil values?

Here, Hu Xijin, the mouthpiece of the CCP’s military, has to fight to the door of the United States under his own unreasonable circumstances. On the other hand, the CCP actually proposes to participate in "improving the global human rights system."

On 9 September, the State Council Information Office of the Communist Party of China issued the "National Human Rights Action Plan (2021-2025)", claiming to "fully and actively" participate in global human rights governance in these five years, and to "deeply participate in the work of the United Nations human rights mechanism to promote Build a more fair, just, reasonable and inclusive global human rights governance system, and jointly build a community with a shared future for mankind."

Many friends feel unbelievable when they hear this. The CCP’s own human rights record is messed up, and it is often condemned by democratic countries. The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics will be boycotted by countless governments and NGOs around the world because of human rights issues. CCP officials have also been sanctioned by European and American countries for serious violations of human rights in Hong Kong, Xinjiang and other places. Now, the CCP has jumped out and said that it wants to manage global human rights issues.

Some people may take this as a joke, but smile back. Since the Chinese Communist Party officially put forward this plan, it is definitely not just talking about it. There is a deep purpose behind it.

Current affairs commentator Tang Jingyuan analyzed that the CCP’s purpose is very simple. It is to seize the right to speak, interpret and even define major issues in the international community. This is part of the CCP’s attempt to replace the United States and rebuild a new world order.

The CCP now redefines or interprets key global issues such as human rights, democracy, and globalization in the name of "cultural differences" or "Chinese characteristics." Under this interpretation, the CCP’s group extermination behavior in Xinjiang has been distorted. The cruel persecution of Falun Gong and other religions has also become the government's care for the people.

Now, the CCP not only plays this trick on its own, but also exports and promotes this set of "characteristic values" to the international community through the United Nations, and finally allows the world to accept this set of evil values ​​led by the CCP, making it a "universal standard." ", occupies a dominant position in the ideological field.

Beijing to provide 200 million RMB of food and vaccines for the Taliban

At present, the CCP seems to talk very much about its "humanity" to the Taliban.

On 8 September, the Chinese Communist Party’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi participated in the first meeting of the foreign ministers of Afghanistan’s neighbors and promised to provide Afghanistan with 200 million yuan worth of food, winter supplies, vaccines and medicines.

Wang Yi claimed that the CCP decided to donate 3 million doses of vaccines in the first batch and provide more epidemic prevention and emergency supplies; after security conditions permit, China is also willing to support the peaceful reconstruction and economic development of Afghanistan.

At the same time, he did not forget to accuse the United States, saying that the United States and its allies are the "initiators" of the Afghan issue, and "it is more obligated than any country to provide economic, livelihood, and humanitarian assistance to the Afghan people."

Could it be that this is part of the CCP’s “global human rights” plan?

Epoch Times columnist Wang He believes that the CCP’s approach is to win over the Taliban; the second is to disguise humanitarian aid and seize the public opinion; However, due to the pressure of international public opinion, the CCP is also avoiding the issue of recognition of the Taliban regime. The Taliban’s appetite for the CCP seems to be very large, and may not be satisfied with the CCP’s statement. The relationship between the CCP and the Taliban remains to be seen.

On 7 September, the Taliban announced the establishment of an interim government in Afghanistan, and the cabinet members are all high-ranking Taliban members. Among them, the new interim prime minister, Mullah Mohammad Hassan Akhund, one of the founders of the Taliban, was blacklisted by the United Nations; Acting Interior Minister Sarajuddin Haqqani (Sarajuddin Haqqani) is wanted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

TikTok scandal: Pushing sex and drug videos to minors

Next, let's look at a scandal involving the international version of TikTok.

Among TikTok's approximately 100 million monthly active users, teenagers are the largest group. According to the company's data, in 2020, minors accounted for more than a quarter of users. So, how does TikTok "manage" these users?

On 9 September, the Wall Street Journal published an investigative article accusing TikTok of pushing and selling drug and pornographic content to underage users.

The article said that "Hua Ri" has registered dozens of automatic accounts between 13 and 15 years old to understand what TikTok shows to young users. These robot accounts can browse the "For You" video stream of the entertainment platform at will. This highly personalized video stream is generated by algorithms, and the content can be said to be endless.

"Hua Ri" analyzed the videos received by these accounts and found that TikTok can quickly lead minors into a bottomless pit full of sex and drug content.

For example, the company posted at least 569 videos related to drug use to an account registered as a 13-year-old, involving cocaine and methamphetamine addiction, as well as promotional videos for online sales of drugs and paraphernalia. Other experimental accounts have also received hundreds of similar videos.

Another account is set to "interest in multiple categories," TikTok has pushed hundreds of Japanese movies and TV cartoons to it, many of which are sex-related themes.

In addition, TikTok also showed these underage accounts more than one hundred promotional videos from paid pornographic websites and sex shops, as well as thousands of content marked as "for adults only." Sometimes, the creators of the videos made it clear that they don’t want children to watch their videos, but TikTok still pushed these videos.

In total, at least 2,800 videos "for adults only" were pushed to the minor accounts created by "Hua Ri".

This is not the first time that TikTok has been exposed to such scandals. In July this year, “Business Insider” (Business Insider) survey found that the platform automatically recommends content surrounding eating disorders; in early June, a Dutch non-profit organization, the Netherlands Market Information Research Foundation (SOMI), represented thousands of parents on TikTok filed a lawsuit claiming that it "failed to protect the safety of children and violated European advertising and privacy rules."

Myanmar National Unity Government: Declaration of war necessary as international pressure fails

Image : Daw Zin Mar Aung, the Foreign Minister of National Unity Government, Myanmar

Myanmar’s shadow National Unity Government (NUG) calls on Tuesday for a war against the military regime have generated mixed reactions.  Its Foreign Minister Daw Zin Mar Aung argues that the declaration of war on the Myanmar Junta is necessary as international pressure on the regime to stop killing civilians and arrest activists has failed.

The majority of Myanmar people, who have endured the regime’s atrocities such as arbitrary killings, arrests and indiscriminate shootings, heartily embraced the announcement of ‘the nationwide revolt’ but the international community was not impressed.

Reactions from the UK and U.S.: Refrain from escalation of violence, engage in dialogue to end violence

On Tuesday (7 September 2021), the UK’s ambassador designated to Myanmar, Pete Vowles, tweeted that “the UK supports peaceful efforts to restore democracy in Myanmar. We strongly condemn the junta’s coup and brutality; we call on all parties to engage in dialogue”. This means that the UK, which has supported the anti-regime movement since the coup, does not support the NUG’s call for a war to topple the junta. Echoing what the UK said, the US embassy in Yangon told The Irrawaddy that they encourage “all sides to be peaceful and to avoid an escalation of violence”, while continuing to push the regime to end all violence.

The NUG’s Foreign Minister Daw Zin Mar Aung has her say on the reason behind the declaration of war, and offers her views on the international response and the controversial ceasefire request made by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) special envoy for Myanmar.

The reason for announcement of a nationwide defensive war and all-out revolt against the Junta

Daw Zin Mar Aung says, "The [acting] president’s speech encourages the existing resistance movement to step up the momentum of its activities. Actually, the people have been acting in self-defense in their respective regions since before the NUG’s call for a war. The official announcement on Tuesday was a consequence of the diplomatic failures we have seen, because the international pressure and sanctions [on the regime] have proved to be ineffective in the seven months since the coup. So the call is an alert to the existing revolutionary movement."

NUG: Use all means to restore democracy to Myanmar

Some countries have asked why NUG announced the war declaration against the military regime. She replied, "We have people who are continuing the peaceful protests under the leadership of the strike committees, as well as the Civil Disobedience Movement (CDM) against military rule. The CDM and the non-violence movement aren’t stopping, while our political efforts [to get recognition and to reject the military regime] via international pressure and diplomatic channels will continue. But these efforts are not enough. Therefore, we have to put some momentum into the resistance movement. This is not a shift from a non-violent movement to violence. It is just that we will use all possible means to restore democracy".

NUG's position on dialogue with the Myanmar Junta

Every experienced person focused on peace building and conflict studies knows that there have to be pre-conditions before dialogue can happen. A period of time is needed. A change in political circumstance is needed before dialogue can happen. Such conditions and changes need to come first. Until then, NUG should not be pressured to hold dialogue.
The international intervention is sluggish. It took four months to appoint an ASEAN special envoy. During those four months, the number of civilian deaths and civilian arrests rose from the hundreds to the thousands. They could not even pressure the military’s State Administration Council to allow the ASEAN special envoy to visit Myanmar. The Burmese are too frustrated. Members of the NUG have a responsibility to reflect the Myanmarr peoples’ voices and sufferings. Their call for a war is the Burmese's response to the depressing lack of action by the international community.

ASEAN special envoy did not talk to NUG
Daw Zin Mar Aung said the envoy did not directly talk to NUG about the proposed four-month ceasefire. As far as they understand, the ASEAN special envoy is trying to visit Myanmar and has requested to meet all relevant stakeholders, including detained State Counselor Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and President U Win Myint, strike committees, ethnic groups, the Committee Representing Pyidaungsu Hluttaw and the NUG. That has been ASEAN’s five-point consensus and NUG understand that ASEAN is trying to implement it.
Regarding the call for a ceasefire [until the end of this year], it is totally dependent on the regime as they are the ones who have been shooting civilians. People would not need to respond with defensive acts if the regime stopped attacking them. Daw Zin Mar Aung said, "Our peoples’ actions in self-defense are the result of the military’s attacks against civilians and treating them as if they are an enemy on the battlefield. The junta has the sole responsibility and it must hold its fire."

PDFs follow civilian code of conduct while Myanmar Junta treat the people as enemies
The NUG’s Defense Ministry has strictly instructed all the People’s Defense Forces (PDF) to follow its code of conduct. That is also publicized to make sure that the PDF’s under the NUG’s command abide by those instructions. I think people will not worry [about the NUG’s announcement on war]. They all know who is indiscriminately shooting passers-by, children and pregnant women. The reason the PDF’s were formed was because of the military’s aggressive actions. Instead of protecting the public, the military is treating the people as the enemy.

PDF is changing Myanmar's whole security industry with the aim of protecting civilians

Targeting civilians is not the policy of the NUG or the PDF’s. Professional armed forces do not go on killing sprees and commit indiscriminate attacks. The PDF’s are the first step towards changing Myanmar’s whole security sector, which has been in ruins for decades under previous military regimes as well as the current one.

Myanmar people excited about war against Myanmar Junta

Regarding the NUG’s call for a war, Daw Zin Mar Aung says, "I think the people are excited rather than worried. They have been waiting for this day and some have said that the NUG’s declaration should have come earlier." 

The NUG has no responsibility for the instability in Myanmar. The coup leaders create the instability in the country by seizing power and overthrowing the civilian government on 1 February 2020.

Yangon bombings on 9 September 2021, no casualties reported

Source : Myanmar Now / Image : EPA



Tensions are high in Yangon as multiple bomb blasts in the former capital triggered panic and tightened security on 9 September 2021.

 

Two explosions were reported in the city’s Sanchaung Township, where residents said that an unidentified man tossed a bomb into a military vehicle patrolling near the intersection of Bargayar and Baho Roads at around 4 pm.

 

The incident occurred near a market with heavy pedestrian traffic. No details regarding casualties were available at the time of reporting.

 

“People on the street told me there was shattered glass on the road. I didn’t go to the place where it happened,” said one woman who spoke to Myanmar Now.

 

According to residents and media reports, soldiers stormed into the area and nearby neighbourhoods soon after the blast.

 

“[Soldiers] told shopkeepers in the market to close their businesses, and people were running all over the place,” the woman said.

 

About two hours later, another explosion was reported near the intersection of Baho Road and Zeyawaddy Street. Two residents told Myanmar Now their apartments were shaken by the blast. 

 

According to the BBC’s Burmese-language service, the second explosion was caused by a bomb detonated by junta soldiers after they discovered it while securing the area.

 

The military has deployed soldiers throughout Sanchaung Township and in neighbouring areas following the incidents on Thursday, according to residents.  

 

The exiled news outlet DVB has reported that a number of young people, including a food delivery worker, were detained during searches conducted in the areas hit by the blasts.


So far, no group has claimed responsibility for the bombings.

 

A few hours earlier, in eastern Yangon’s Dagon Seikkan Township, a bomb went off outside a municipal office, residents said.

 

A coalition of urban guerrilla groups that calls itself the Anti-Fascist Armed Force claimed responsibility for that attack. 

 

A member of the coalition said his group also attacked two military vehicles in North Dagon Township with bombs. Myanmar Now could not verify this claim.

 

The attacks on Thursday come two days after Myanmar’s shadow National Unity Government (NUG) declared the start of a “resistance war” against the junta that seized power in February 2020.

 

Since then, the regime has increased its presence in the streets, stopping vehicles and pedestrians in an effort to track down suspected anti-junta insurgents.

 

It has also ordered homeowners and landlords in Yangon and other cities to provide ward administrators with detailed information about all residents living on their properties.
