The cost of clearing the epidemic and preventing the epidemic is high in China, CCP is studying epidemic prevention "in line with international standards"

Chinese Communist Party experts say they are studying new anti-epidemic policies in order to "align with the international standards." Critics pointed out that the "zero-covid policy" has reached a dead end, and Beijing will give up sooner or later but it may not be until after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.
European and American countries are liberalizing their epidemic prevention policies and gradually turning to "coexistence with the virus". However, the CCP still insists on "zero-covid tolerance". This policy seriously affects the economy and people's livelihood but it is regarded as a treasure by the authorities and is widely publicized.
However, a forum held by Renmin University of China on 15 February 2022 claimed to have been working on "new ideas" for the authorities.
According to Lugang media reports, the theme of the forum is epidemic prevention policies. Liu Yuanchun, vice president of the National People's Congress, said in an online speech that he hopes to "open up some new ideas for our government and the people" when "the turning point of the epidemic is coming".
Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said in his speech that with the relaxation of epidemic prevention measures in Europe and the United States, Beijing is faced with the choice of whether to change the "clearing" policy.
He said that if they continue to persevere, private enterprises and self-employed individuals will face enormous pressure to survive. But if it is completely released, "it is initially predicted that many people will be infected and die."
Wu Zunyou said that many teams in China are studying prevention and control measures that are neither different from the current "dynamic clearing" nor completely "flattening", trying to ensure the control of the epidemic and at the same time "in line with the international standards."
However he also said that such "measures have not yet come out."
Previously, Shi Shan, a commentator, analyzed in the program "Is there a mistake" that the CCP has tied the apparently unsustainable "zero-covid" policy to its political goals, which has actually put itself into a huge predicament. In the end, Beijing can only be forced to give up the reset, but it must wait for the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China at the end of this year, and this year is enough time to cause great damage to the CCP economy.

During the recent Singapore Airshow 2022, the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) and ST Engineering Aerospace signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) through a PPP (Government-Private Partnership) model. Together they will promote the development and application of unmanned aerial vehicle technology in Singapore.
Under the MoU, the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore and ST Aerospace will jointly identify and determine the maturity of new technologies for unmanned aerial vehicles, such as autonomy and connectivity, and assess their value and feasibility to operate in Singapore. Through data sharing, joint trials and technical research, this collaboration will also facilitate the development of technical standards required for the safe introduction and operation of these new technologies. The two sides will also jointly enhance Singapore's unmanned aerial vehicle engineering and technical capabilities through technical exchanges and training programmes.
It is understood that the MoU builds on the earlier collaboration between the CAAS and ST Engineering Aerospace to research and develop new concepts, procedures and technologies to enable unmanned aerial vehicle operations beyond visual range operations (BVLOS), and develop a regulatory framework for the safety oversight of such operations in Singapore. Since then, the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore has authorized 34 routes for low-risk over-the-horizon operations, some of which ST Engineering Aerospace is using for routine flight operations to help the Public Utilities Board (PUB) observe water quality, monitor its six water activities such as fishing and boating in reservoirs.
