The most anticipated Mercedes-Benz Pakistan Fashion Week (PFWDOHA) began with glitz and glamour here at the Doha Marriott Hotel, Qatar. Showcasing the latest bridal, prêt & formal trends, the two-day event was all set to showcase never-seen-before trends. The mega fashion event was organized by Rahat Mansoor, Founder & CEO PFW DOHA in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz. PFWDOHA endeavours to promote Pakistan’s seasoned and aspiring fashion talent both on the domestic and international platform.
The two-day fashion extravaganza, Mercedes Benz-Pakistan Fashion Week Doha (PFWD) gathered a large multicultural audience for an array of designer clothes by some of the most prominent brands from Pakistan’s thriving fashion industry.
Featuring some of the leading labels such as Deepak Perwani, Zainab Chotani, HSY, Ali Zeeshan and Emran Rajput, the two-day fashion event concluded in Doha on Friday, showcasing collections of more than a 20 designers from Pakistan
Hosted by renowned Pakistani TV host, Ayesha Sana, the bigger and better second season of the PFWD brought before the Doha audience celebrities from Pakistan’s showbiz industry. Imran Abbas, the young TV and film actor, alongside top models from the industry walked the ramp for the grand finale of the show.
“This year’s show pulled even bigger an audience and people came in good numbers on both days. The house remained packed and this is bigger an audience then we were expecting,” Rahat Mansoor, the CEO of PWFD, said at the conclusion of the show.
“And the audience is a mix of members of different expatriate communities besides the local Qatari nationals. This shows that Pakistani designer’s clothes and brands are getting popular here as well,” suggested Rahat.
Pakistan’s top designer Deepak Perwani opened the show on the first day while designer Ali Zeeshan’s collection closed the day one. On Day two Zainab Chottani open the show while top designer Hassan Sheharyar Yasin, popularly known as HSY, concluded the show with a grand finale on the last day.
Some of the prominent & upcoming designers participating in the show from Pakistan were Ishtiaq Afzal, Maria Rao, Ghazo Collections, Samina Shahjani, High Street by Saima Asim, Madiha Gohar, Noman & Bhiya, Tasneem Sadaf, Fashion Factory by Amna Farhan, Iqra by Iqra Saqib, Riwaj by Pink, PH Design, and D&F by Deepak & Fahad. The event was Choreographed by Imran Kureishi from Pakistan
The show was an improvement upon and a bigger event that it’s last year’s inaugural season. Particular focus was given to the hosting of the event and PFWD this year invited Ayesha Sana who did a “wonderful job”. Besides, the organization was professionally handled, Rahat Mansoor added
“We had arranged for confirmation of participation from our guests who were invited and accordingly the seating arrangement was made so that nobody faces any inconvenience. And this is a very important aspect of organization as nobody would want to go through any trouble on their weekend, especially when they are coming to see such a grand show,” said Rahat.
The quality and variety in the selection of designers remained a key factor that added freshness to the event and managed to pull big crowds on both days of the show. Rahat said the young designers were carefully selected after a lengthy process.
However, the upcoming designers were selected after their profiles and products were vetted during a rigorous selection process. Rahat said Pakistani fashion designs are fast gaining popularity locally.
“Wearing designer clothes is very popular in Pakistan and I think it is equally so here in Doha. It is an international market and local authorities are doing a very good job in promoting and encouraging the local fashion scene,” said the PFWD CEO.
“Pakistani designers and their products are admired all over the world and they are very popular,” she added.
Rahat said that the biggest difference between last year and this was the branding. “Now, it is branded as a Mercedes Benz show and I think there are only three Mercedes-Benz brandings in the world such as Milano, US and Paris; and now the fourth is PFWD,” she said.
She thanked the title sponsors of the event, Mercedes-Benz whose executives were happy with the turnout & execution. The event was attended by a number of diplomats, top Qatari businessmen and women and VIPs from different communities.
The event was powered by ChenOne, official travel partner Mytrip, The make-up and grooming was done by Glam & Glitz, Hum Network as our official Media Partner, while City Exchange Trinity among other sponsors & partners, Our official PR of the event was handled by the PR department of HUM Network Ltd.

With the objectives to promote Pakistani fashion line to the rich international, Qatari community residing in one of the richest county in the world; and vice versa for the Designers to enjoy the exposure of Qatar’s untapped market” said Mrs. Rahat Mansoor, CEO and the Chief organizer of Pakistan Fashion Week Doha.

TEXT OF STORY
Kai Ryssdal: That music can only mean one thing. Time for your comments about our coverage. First up this week, Michelle Brown from Menlo Park, Calif. She pointed out, as many of you did, that our history of the GI Bill, and how it helped a lot of Americans move up into middle class, only told half the story.
MICHELLE BROWN: Whole swaths of the population, particularly black servicemen returning from the war, were denied those services due to unjust banking and realtor practices. This means that their descendants do not benefit from the accrued wealth that your guest described.
Commentator Justin Wolfers did not so much describe as argue last week that we really do need another economic stimulus package. Justin laid out his logic. Robert Welles of Cupertino, Calif., lays out his.
ROBERT WELLES: When I heard Justin Wolfers argue that we need another stimulus I was reminded of the quote, “The beatings will continue until morale improves.” Honest, confidence-building leadership would produce better results than the discredited placebo of stimulus.
Sears is looking for a little stimulus to its sales. So, as we pointed out, it’s selling some Christmas merchandise now. Marlene Athie of Rockland, Md., says she’s still out looking for summertime stuff.
MARLENE ATHIE: I decided to replace my tatty old sunshade over my table on the deck. Much to the mirth of the employees at my local Home Depot, who wondered why I would be looking for such a thing now. All their stock had been sold. Christmas in July indeed. I’ll buy my new umbrella in December next time.
We did a different kind of retail story last week, about a different kind of retail. Walk-in health insurance stores. Florida Blue, a store operated by Blue Cross Blue Shield where customers can get help buying health coverage.
One critic we quoted in our story said the stores won’t do anything to make insurance easier to afford. But we didn’t ask Blue Cross about that, and we should have. Mark Wright is with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida.
MARK WRIGHT: Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Florida created the Florida blue stores to assist people in making affordable health-care choices. The stores are intended to provide personal service primarily to individuals of small group customers to either find a plan that will help fill their needs or help customers with their service issues.
Some of you took issue with our story on movie tax credits. We told you about how the credits Massachusetts gives film companies weren’t really paying off. But there were some complaints that we didn’t put enough emphasis on the amount of indirect business movies bring with them.
Joe Maiella is president of the Massachusetts Production Coalition.
JOE MAIELLA: There’s no other sector of the Massachusetts economy that is performing as robustly as film production. Income generated from motion-picture making in Massachusetts has increased from $6 million to $676 million through 2008.

Bidding for the extremely rare “Celebration Apple I” being auctioned by CharityBuzz closed today and while the lot failed to break the record for the most amount paid for an Apple I computer, the winning bid nearly topped $1 million dollars.
Cult of Mac’s David Pierini traveled to KansasFest to meet Apple fans intensely devoted to the Apple II computer line. The machine turns 40 next year.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It’s rare we hear the term personal computer anymore. Yet personal is the only word to begin to understand KansasFest and a small but feisty community of preservationists who love the Apple II line of computers.
The 28th fest concluded Saturday and within the event’s first hour, attendees were already making plans to attend next year, the 40th birthday of the Apple II.
An incredibly rare and unique Apple I computer is set to hit the auction block next week, and it could break the record for the most money ever paid for one of Jobs and Woz’s first computers.
CharityBuzz revealed today that it will auction off an original Apple 1, with 10 percent of the proceeds going to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Because the circuit board on the item up for auction is rare even among the 60 or so surviving Apple 1 computers left in existence, it could pull in more than $1 million.

The UK car market ground to a halt in April, with new vehicle sales plunging by 97% to the lowest level since the end of the second world war because of the coronavirus lockdown.
Figures from industry body the SMMT show only 4,321 cars were registered, the lowest monthly level since 1946, this was compared with 161,064 sales in the same month last year.
The Society for Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) said that of the registrations made last month, 70% were by companies buying for their fleets. The cars would most likely have been on order before the lockdown, said Mike Hawes, SMMT chief executive. “If you are told to close all your car showrooms for the entirety of April it’s no surprise sales are almost non-existent,” he told the BBC. Many of the 4,000 cars sold last month were needed to support key workers and for those who had a pressing need for them, an SMMT spokesman said.
The lockdown began on 23 March. Sales for that month fell by 44% compared with 2019, the biggest fall since the financial crisis, before the almost total freeze in April. The majority of the cars sold in April were to fleet buyers who already had them on order, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) which produced the figures.
The UK car market was already being squeezed before the pandemic, with confusion over fuel types following emissions-cheating scandals that prompted a consumer and political backlash against diesel cars. Brexit uncertainty also held sales back in recent months.
The government is considering how to ease the pandemic lockdown without allowing the disease to spread again, but there are concerns that even a gradual easing of restrictions will do little to spur car sales once more, amid surging unemployment.
To add to motorists worries, Volkswagen’s procurement boss said reduced volumes had made components more expensive, adding to financial pressures for manufacturers which are running production lines at lower speeds to allow physical distancing by factory workers.

Research shows that simple scents can increase retail sales
Since shopping on the internet is easier now than ever, you may have gotten comfortable buying gifts in your pajamas. An experiment conducted by Washington State University and Switzerland's University of St. Gallen found that scents in stores can make people more likely to take their Christmas shopping off-line. Eric Spangenberg, Dean of WSU’s College of Business, says the study will help retailers make in-store shopping more enjoyable.
“Often times the merchandise isn’t differentiated at all,” Eric Spangenberg says. “We’re buying Ralph Lauren, Nautica or Polo that can be in any number of stores. Really the retailers are looking for differential advantage by creating an environment that’s more pleasant, and that people want to spend time in; that they want to re-visit.”
The study’s key finding is that simple scents, like cinnamon, are more effective at getting people to open their wallets than more layered, complex scents. Writing in the Journal of Retailing, the researchers said that cash register receipts and customer interviews reflected a significant bump in sales when an uncomplicated scent was in the air. They say that's because simpler scents are easier for the brain to process, freeing customers to focus on shopping.

The Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA), the nodal agency for the National Programme on Organic Production (NPOP) has suspended the accreditation of two certification agencies and withdrawn NPOP certification of an exporter for “major non-compliances”.
According to decisions made by the sub-committee of the National Accreditation Body (NAB), managed by APEDA, penalties have been imposed on six certification organisations and an exporting firm has been placed in the “high-risk category” for six months.
The sub-committee met on November 23 and the decisions were conveyed in an APEDA communication dated December 9, a copy of which is available with businessline.
As per the sub-committee decision, the accreditation of Reliable Organic Certification Organization (ROCO) and Baltic Testing India Pvt Ltd for one year and three months, respectively, for major non-compliances and violation of NPOP. A fine of ₹5 lakh each has been imposed on both companies.
ROCO is a Bengaluru-based firm launched in 2018. Baltic Testing is a subsidiary of Denmark-based Baltic Control Ltd.
The NAB has also pulled up Karnataka and Rajasthan organic certification agencies. While a penalty of ₹1.5 lakh has been imposed on Karnataka State Organic Certification Agency, Rajasthan State Organic Certification Agency will have to pay ₹1 lakh for “non-compliances and lapses” in the certification process under NPOP.
A “pecuniary penalty” of ₹5 lakh has been imposed on Aditi Organic Certification Pvt Ltd and SGS India Pvt Ltd for “major non-compliances in the certification process under NPOP”, while CU Inspections India Pvt Ltd has been penalised ₹2 lakh for the same violation.
The sub-committee also decided to issue a warning letter to Ecocert India Pvt Ltd for lapses in certification process. In 2021, Aditi Organic, CU Inspections and Ecocert had been found violating the compliance orders in 2021 by APEDA.
The NAB decided to withdraw NPOP certification of Elite Green Pvt Ltd apart from penalising it ₹5 lakh for NPOP non-compliance and violation.
While placing RPM Exim Pvt Ltd in the high-risk category, the NAB has ordered consignment-based testing of organic sugar it ships out of the country.
‘Seek bank guarantees’
According to trade analyst S Chandrasekaran, since some of the companies such as Aditi Organic, CU Inspections and Ecocert have been found to be repeat offenders, an improvement in the process is required to ensure the offences do not recur.
“The government should make use of technology such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, besides tapping data to tackle such offences. APEDA is doing things with noble intentions but unless and until authorities learn to tap the latest technology and use organic Aadhaar, its efforts may be in vain,” he said.
The Centre should raise the penalty manifold since the current amount is meagre and cannot be a deterrent. “Also, the agencies should be asked to provide bank guarantees. Companies such as Ecocert and CU Inspections, which are Europe-based, have not been found fault by the EU because of the regulations there. We need to bring in such regulations here to ensure strict compliance,” the analyst said.

BANDUNG, Indonesia, Dec. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Social commerce from Indonesia, Evermos, and modest fashion brand Ria Miranda announced plan for a business cooperation to elevate local made moslem wear or modest fashion products to be able to generate positive impact on the national economy. The collaboration commitment is manifested in the launch of the brand Dale by Ria Miranda on Evermos' platform and ecosystem. The announcement was made in the RiaMiranda Annual Show held in Jakarta on Thursday, December 1, 2022. Ghufron Mustaqim, CEO and Co-founder of Evermos, at The 10th RiaMiranda Annual Show Ria Miranda, Creative Director of RiaMiranda Brand remarked, "In the 10th RiaMiranda Annual Show this year, I am sharing the stage with some of my fellow entrepreneurs under a number of collaboration and cooperations that aim to give a boost to the Moslem wear industry in Indonesia." Ghufron Mustaqim, CEO and Co-Founder Evermos pointed out, "The Indonesian people spend up to $6.09 billion every year on hijab and modest clothing products. Unfortunately, we found in our research at the World Economic Forum that only 25% of these products are made locally. This indicates a great opportunity to optimize the local industry in order to boost the national economy." "Through collaboration with RiaMiranda as one of the leading brand in the modest fashion industry, we want to inspire more local hijab brands to continue creating and innovating including through adoption of technology. We expect to see more local products reigning in the domestic moslem wear market," added Ghufron Mustaqim. Pandu Rosadi, CEO of RiaMiranda Brand said, "Market competition continues creating new challenges. With this in mind, we need to leverage on the digital transformation that is happening almost everywhere. Joining Evermos is part of our digital strategy. Evermos provides end-to-end support for the brands, serving as value chain enabler and retail enabler at the same time. I am confident that Evermos will be the platform that will bring local brand to a new level." "Among the support we expect to gain from Evermos is the assistance in connecting brands with hundreds of thousands of Evermos' active resellers across Indonesia. This system allows everyone to own a business by reselling product available on the Evermos platform, including the highly potential modest fashion products that are regaining its traction in 2022," added Pandu Rosadi.

The similarities of vision and belief between Ria Miranda and Evermos, which are to do business that not only creates financial benefit but also strong impact, make a good foundation for a harmonious synergy. "We build this brand with the dream of creating and sharing a lot of virtues. We embedded this vision and bring it along with us in every cooperation and collaboration that we do. We always give a serious thought to the impact that we create on our surroundings. When deciding on doing a collaboration with Evermos, we made sure that we have similar vision and mission with Evermos," explained Ria Miranda.

Globalnewsonline: Guidance from Jiang Mingcheng: Guarding Against Telecom Fraud
NEW YORK, Dec. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is a report from Globalnewsonline: Recently, Mr. Jiang Mingcheng listed some precautions against telecom fraud. In particular, he disclosed the techniques of many telecom frauds in other areas outside Taiwan and pointed out some aspects that Taiwan people need to pay attention to. Mr. Jiang mentioned that Taiwan people must understand the techniques that are rampant in other areas outside Taiwan to avoid various telecom risks. Pay attention to high-pay calls outside Taiwan. Taiwanese enterprises need to protect IP PBXS. The very mention of telecom fraud carries a picture of incoming high-pay calls with 0204 at the start. Basically, this is paid voice service provided by the second type of carrier through the platform of the first type of carrier. At present, other numbers starting with 0208 and 0209 also fall into this category. In the past, there were also disputes over charges caused by high-pay calls in Taiwan, which have gradually died down. The reason for their gradual disappearance, mentioned by Mr. Jiang, is that in the first 20 seconds of a call-free period, Taiwan operators are required to announce the charges of high-pay calls according to law, such as the maximum charge of 100 yuan per minute and 500 yuan per call. If the user wants to listen again, he or she must hang up and call again. Mr. Jiang pointed out that if you search IPRN on the Internet, you will find many high-pay call operators in other areas outside Taiwan. Their common feature is that once they register to get a cellphone number, they will cancel the bill with the registered caller when someone calls the number. Mr. Jiang pointed out five types of telecom fraud: first, hang up once the cellphone rings; second, send a text message, claim that there is something urgent and please call back. The first two are tempting you to call back. Third, infect your cellphone with a virus and then manipulate it to make calls; fourth, impersonate the SIM card holder to get the number and make calls through SIM-jacking; fifth, hack PBX devices for cellphone exchange. Taiwanese companies should pay special attention to the fifth one. Mr. Jiang pointed out that some enterprises, especially those using IP PBX devices, may forget to set the password, or use a preset password, so that after hacking, operators with an ulterior can make high-pay calls. In other areas outside Taiwan, another technique has attracted attention and brought great losses, which is IRSF. Mr. Jiang said that this kind of high-pay calls takes advantage of the time difference of account splitting and telecom providers analyzing LOG anomalies, and geopolitical relations. It seems that this fraud technique is quite sophisticated. The following is a scenario to illustrate how the IRSF works. A call from Taiwan to Germany needs to be transferred across many telecom providers, and in every transfer, a part of the cellphone bill in other areas outside Taiwan will be paid to others. If one link goes wrong, you will be transferred to a high-pay call that keeps playing music. Pay attention to whether the 2G function is turned off, as well as the risk of SMS authentication. In addition, other telecom fraud techniques in other areas outside Taiwan include small account transfers, SIM BOX, pseudo base stations and so on. In the case of pseudo base stations, there is little impact on Taiwan so far, as Taiwan has terminated 2G mobile network services. As a reminder, you can check whether the cellphone has turned off the 2G network function because some cellphones are still configured to receive 2G messages. Mr. Jiang pointed out that these are only part of telecom fraud, and there are many other aspects that need to be guarded against, especially when it comes to money. Follow Jiang Mingcheng to learn more precautions against telecom fraud.

Epic film's industry-leading CGI underscores global vision of producer Louis Koo's One Cool Group HONG KONG, Dec. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- "Warriors of Future", the groundbreaking science-fiction action film produced by Hong Kong's One Cool Group, debuted on Netflix on 2 December 2022 in an epic boost to the international profile of Hong Kong and Asian filmmaking. The Asian blockbuster immediately scored big, standing at number 5 in the FlixPatrol ranking of top Netflix movies yesterday. Hailed for its soaring vision and superlative production values, "Warriors of Future" is the highest-grossing Asian film in Hong Kong box office history. Having cost more than US$56 million to make – an unprecedented budget for a Hong Kong movie – with cutting-edge, industry-leading visual effects painstakingly perfected over six years of production, it reaped a total of US$109.8 million following its release in Mainland China and Hong Kong this summer. "Warriors of Future" is the brainchild of Hong Kong film legend Louis Koo, a screen veteran of more than 100 local movies since 1994, who launched film production and distribution company One Cool Group in 2013. Starring a respected Hong Kong acting triumvirate of Koo, Sean Lau and Carina Lau, its highly anticipated global release on Netflix headlines the streaming giant's new slate of Chinese-language content. Koo's labour of love is one of the finest Asian sci-fi movies to join Netflix's impressive collection of international film titles, and an English-dubbed version will enable it to reach a wider global audience. "From an early age and throughout my film career, I have always wondered when we can produce a sci-fi film that is original to Asia," says Louis Koo, Executive Producer of "Warriors of Future" and founder of One Cool Group. "I'm proud and thrilled that this has been realised. With "Warriors of Future" screening on Netflix and reaching beyond Asia to an international audience, it's a step towards the goal of reactivating the glory years of Hong Kong cinema." While lavish CGI productions are invariably huge hits in Asia, "Warriors of Future" breaks the mould on two fronts – as an Asian-made success story and a futuristic tale. Sci-fi dramas are rarely produced in the region due to the technical challenges and cost of realising their epic scope. An impassioned fan of sci-fi films and collector of robot memorabilia, Koo invested time and resources into the project. In his directing debut, special effects master Ng Yuen-fai of "Bodyguard and Assassins" and "The Storm Warriors" fame guided the film from initial cinematography in 2017 through state-of-the-art post-production to its premiere on 15 August 2022 as the 46th Hong Kong International Film Festival opener. Championing the sci-fi genre in Asia, "Warriors of Future" is the most visual effects-heavy Hong Kong film to date and provides a computer-generated imagery showcase that Asian filmmakers can be proud of – its heroic save-the-planet scenario unfolds across a circa-2055 cityscape rendered entirely in CGI. One Cool Group's computer graphics arm, FATface Production, is a leader in the field. Its Asian film work has earned accolades at the Asian Film Awards and the Taiwan-staged Golden Horse Awards. It is also steering the profession into the future through pioneering Artificial Intelligence techniques. The Netflix airing of "Warriors of Future" is another milestone in the international footprint of One Cool Group, which in less than 10 years has evolved from a local film production company to a major player in Asia and beyond. Expanding from its Hong Kong headquarters, it has established subsidiaries in Mainland China, Thailand and South Korea and invested in global animation – collaborating with Sony Pictures Animation on Hollywood projects like "Vivo" and "The Mitchells vs. the Machines", and also projects from US independent film producers. In August 2022, it launched the Warriors of Future NFT through OneCool Collective, a Web3 project in partnership with Hong Kong-based Asian brand tech group Gusto Collective that aims to unlock the limitless potential of the entertainment industry in the digital age. Powered on the Ethereum blockchain, this debut NFT collection provides the spark for a global OneCool community that will empower Entertainment and Movie IPs through Web3 integration. Reflecting OneCool Collective's innovative and disruptive digital spirit, this first series of 10,000 unique 3D avatars of futuristic soldiers has a pioneering interchangeable mechanism that allows holders to swap weapons, body armour, arms, helmet and background among the virtual collectibles they possess, with each interchange reflected in real-time in the NFT marketplace. Through these avatars, collectors can also experience combat in the Warriors of Future mobile game. In the physical world, One Cool Group's international standing was raised further through the 2022 Oscar nomination of "The Mitchells vs. the Machines", which it supported both financially and through its production prowess. Koo served as Executive Producer of the animated sci-fi comedy that also collected multiple gongs at the 49th Annie Awards. Over the past six years, One Cool Group has been involved in 80% of the films released in Hong Kong. In 2020 it produced 10 local features in a bold move to revive a Covid-ravaged film industry and nurture new Hong Kong talent. A raft of services assures the Group's status as a leading film enterprise in Asia. Its motto, 'Thrive through Creativity. Strive for Diversity', unites a fast-growing team of more than 300 film professionals based at its Hong Kong headquarters and affiliated offices in Mainland China, Thailand and South Korea. Joining its renowned computer graphics division within a diversified portfolio are four post-production companies, including sound and editing, artist management ventures as well as film financing, casting, promotion, distribution and cinematic equipment rental activities. "My vision for "Warriors of Future" was to show the world what Hong Kong filmmakers can achieve with first-class CGI and production values," says Louis Koo. "One Cool Group will continue to push boundaries in technical achievements and Web3 so that the Hong Kong entertainment industry remains an international force in the future." About "Warriors of Future" "Warriors of Future" is the highest-grossing Asian film in Hong Kong box office history. It premiered at the Hong Kong International Film Festival in August 2022 and reaped a total of US$109.8 million from theatrical release in Mainland China and Hong Kong. Produced by Louis Koo's One Cool Group and directed by special effects master Ng Yuen-fai, the science-fiction blockbuster cost US$56 million – an unprecedented budget for a Hong Kong movie. Its cutting-edge, industry-leading CGI was created by One Cool Group subsidiary FATface Production over a three-year post-production period. It will be released internationally on Netflix on 2 December 2022.

From Cuju to World Cup: One football dream
BEIJING, Dec. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A news report from China.org.cn on the World Cup and China's football development: &amp;nbsp; The quadrennial FIFA World Cup is in full swing in Qatar. A few days into the event, audiences worldwide have already witnessed some big upsets. But upsets are nothing new to us, since uncertainties have always been one of the charms of football — nothing is impossible as long as one tries hard. In this World Cup, Team China didn't qualify. But on the opening match, three Chinese teenagers served as the FIFA flag bearers. The 3 young football players are currently training outside China, and like they said, standing on the pitch of the World Cup has made them even more determined to fight for Team China in this phenomenal event one day. Bet you didn't know that China is the cradle of ancient football. In "Zhanguoce", a collection of anecdotal histories from the Warring States period (475-221 BC), there was a description of the ancient city Linzi in today's Shandong province, saying it's "rich and abundant, and that only few of its people couldn't taju." Taju, also known as Cuju, is the archaic term for "football". Cuju was trendy for over a thousand years in ancient China; however, in Qing Dynasty (1636-1911), the sport lost its popularity. After modern football was introduced to China, the country established its national football team, founded the Chinese Football Association, joined FIFA, and competed in numerous international football matches. While the Chinese women's national football team has maintained a stellar CV, including a runner-up at the FIFA Women's World Cup, the men's national football team has failed to qualify for five FIFA World Cups. Competing in the World Cup has been a longstanding wish of all avid football fans in China, and despite the challenges, the Chinese people have remained passionate and hopeful for the future of China's football. In 2015, the Overall Plan for Chinese Football Reform and Development was issued, providing a macro roadmap for the sport's development. Besides the focus on professional players in the national teams and football clubs, cultivating a community vibe for football also became an important task. Currently, over 30,000 schools in China are qualified as characterised campus-football schools; by 2025, this number is estimated to reach 50,000. In July, 2022, the first China Youth Football League opened, where young football players from professional football schools and normal schools compete on the same pitch. It means teenagers no longer have to choose between school work and football — they can do both. Apart from schools, quite a lot of companies and other organizations in China have also established their own amateur football teams, so that people could play football for recreation. What's more, football pitches are no longer rare in China: In residential complexes in Beijing, in the countryside of Guangxi, and along the snowy mountains of Tibet, green pitches and football fanatics running back and forth are everywhere to be seen. The increasing number of football fields has guaranteed the development of the game. With this atmosphere, one has reason to believe the spectacle where "only few couldn't play football" will reappear before long. In matches, people represent their own nations. But their love for football and displays of sportsmanship unite all peoples. Hope China truly enjoy the football and develop football along with other parts of the world.

CGTN：China, EU aim to strengthen ties in the face of global challenges
BEIJING, Dec. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- China and the European Union (EU) on Thursday called for further developing their comprehensive strategic partnership as the world faces various challenges. "The more unstable the international situation becomes and the more acute challenges the world faces, the greater global significance China-EU relations take on," Chinese President Xi Jinping said to visiting President of the European Council Charles Michel. "The EU is ready to become a reliable and predictable cooperation partner for China," said Michel, who is the first leader of the EU institution to visit the country after the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC). Keeping the right perception, properly managing differences On promoting the development of China-EU relations, the Chinese president first stressed the importance of keeping the right perception. There are no strategic differences or conflicts of fundamental significance between China and the EU, Xi said, adding that China does not seek dominance or hegemony, and the country has never tried to export its system and will never do it in future. China supports the EU's strategic autonomy and supports a united and prosperous Europe, he said. Noting that it is only natural that the two sides have different views on some issues, Xi called on the EU to maintain communication and coordination in a constructive way. Before Michel's visit, Xi had in-person meetings with several leaders from EU countries, including French President Emmanuel Macron, on the sidelines of the 17th Group of 20 Summit in mid-November. German Chancellor Olaf Scholz also visited China in November. During his talk with Scholz, Xi had underscored that China always regards Europe as a comprehensive strategic partner, supports the strategic autonomy of the EU and wishes Europe stability and prosperity. Michel told Xi that the EU stands ready for an in-depth discussion with China on important issues concerning various aspects of EU-China relations "in the spirit of mutual respect and candor." The EU pursues strategic autonomy and stays committed to building its own capacity and pressing ahead with European integration, he stressed. The EU upholds the one-China policy and respects China's sovereignty and territorial integrity and will not interfere in China's internal affairs, he said. Promoting cooperation, strengthening coordination The Chinese president called for joint efforts with the EU in strengthening macroeconomic policy coordination, seeking greater complementarity in market, capital and technology, and working together to nurture new growth drivers in digital economy, green development and environment protection, new energies, and artificial intelligence. China welcomes the EU's participation in the Belt and Road cooperation and the Global Development Initiative for greater synergy with the EU's Global Gateway strategy, Xi said. When meeting Michel and Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, via video in April, Xi had called for seeking greater synergy between their development strategies and exploring more complementarity between China's new development philosophy and paradigm and the EU's trade policy for open strategic autonomy. Michel stressed strengthening communication to address energy crisis, climate change, public health and other global challenges, saying that the EU will work with China to take forward the process toward an EU-China investment agreement. Despite the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, China and the EU have maintained vigorous economic cooperation — China overtook the U.S. to become the EU's largest trading partner last year, with bilateral trade volume hitting a record high of $828.1 billion. China and the EU are the second and the third largest economies in the world, with their share of global GDP standing at 18.5 percent and 17.8 percent, respectively, in 2021, according to the World Bank data. The two sides also exchanged views on the Ukraine crisis. Xi said a political settlement of the crisis best serves Europe's interests and the common interests of all countries in Eurasia, stressing that China supports the EU in stepping up mediation efforts and playing a leading role in building a balanced, effective and sustainable security architecture in Europe. China will remain on the side of peace and continue to play a constructive role in its own way, he said. https://news.cgtn.com/news/2022-12-01/Xi-holds-talks-with-European-Council-President-Michel-1fpcvVrf30s/index.html

Sony Music France Partner With KMS to Launch 'First-Ever' Fully Immersive IMAX-Certified Film of Iconic Rock Band Indochine's 'Cen
Released in 450 movie theatres in France, Central Tour in Cinema also screens in nine countries around the world Filmed with 22 IMAX certified cameras through the "Filmed for IMAX" program, Central Tour in Cinema harnesses the same immersive technology used with films such as Dune, Doctor Strange & The Multiverse of Madness and Top Gun: Maverick PARIS, Dec. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sony Music France and joint venture partner KMS announced the launch of co-production 'Central Tour in Cinema': a film showcasing iconic French rock band Indochine's 40th anniversary concert, held in the spring of 2022 to a sold-out and record-setting audience of more than 400,000 fans in five of France's biggest stadiums. Indochine’s ‘Central Tour in Cinema’ Sony Music France has supported Indochine since the band was first formed. Founded in 1981 Indochine quickly became a national and global success with songs like "L'aventurier" and "Canary Bay". Four decades on, and several generations of fans later, Indochine has sold 13 million of albums worldwide, with plans for more collaborations to come. Captured with 22 IMAX certified cameras, the launch of Central Tour in Cinema means Indochine are the first band ever to offer a concert filmed and broadcasted with IMAX technology and screened in cinemas in nine countries around the world. Thanks to the technology of IMAX certified digital cameras and state-of-the-art post-production work, the brightness, colorimetry and contrast are enhanced for unparalleled results of realism and precision on the big screen. The sound, powerful and vibrant, is customized for an optimal spread. The scale of the IMAX screens guarantees a total immersive experience that rivals the spectacular live show. Through the "Filmed for IMAX" program, IMAX cameras must be associated with the unique IMAX postproduction process. Among the first films in the new "Filmed for IMAX" program are Dune, Doctor Strange & The Multiverse of Madness, and Top Gun: Maverick – and now Indochine's Central Tour In Cinema. "We are very proud that the IMAX system has chosen us to be the firsts," said Nicola Sirkis, Founder of Indochine and KMS. "This system offers a full immersive experience, a way to be as close as possible to us in our show. The image quality is insane. We have literally never seen a concert filmed like that." "Indochine are simply iconic in my eyes," said Marie-Anne Robert, Managing Director, Sony Music France. "They're the gold standard of innovation. They're constantly changing things up, stepping out of their comfort zone, and giving us things we've never seen before. And not only that: they're icons in the unconditional respect they have for their fans. All the teams here at Sony Music France are so proud to have Indochine on our roster, and we can't wait to help the band build new projects like this one." "IMAX continues to be a global destination for fandom of all kinds, and Indochine is a perfect example of how we're creating unique and immersive entertainment events on the international stage," added Megan Colligan, President of IMAX Entertainment.

CGTN: How do China, Laos promote building of human community with shared future?
BEIJING, Dec. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Since its launch in December 2021, the China-Laos Railway, a landmark project connecting Kunming in southwest China's Yunnan Province with the Lao capital Vientiane, has demonstrated its advantages and favorable effects in passenger and freight transportation. According to the Laos-China Railway Co., Ltd. (LCRC), a joint venture based in Vientiane and responsible for the operation of the railway's Lao section, so far, the Lao section of the China-Laos Railway has shipped a total of around 2 million tonnes of goods, most of which are cross-border goods, and has carried 1.26 million passengers. Meeting with visiting Thongloun Sisoulith, general secretary of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party Central Committee and Lao president, Chinese President Xi Jinping Wednesday said that with joint efforts, the two sides have made the China-Laos Railway a road of development, happiness and friendship for the people of the two countries. Xi said this not only brings great benefits to the people of the two countries, but also provides a model for the building of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and promoting the building of a human community with a shared future. Mourning Comrade Jiang Zemin's death Xi began by telling Thongloun that Comrade Jiang Zemin passed away earlier in the day in Shanghai after all medical treatments had failed. Comrade Jiang was an outstanding leader enjoying high prestige acknowledged by the whole Party, the entire military and the Chinese people of all ethnic groups, a great Marxist, a great proletarian revolutionary, statesman, military strategist and diplomat, a long-tested communist fighter, and an outstanding leader of the great cause of socialism with Chinese characteristics. He was the core of the CPC's third generation of central collective leadership and the principal founder of the Theory of Three Represents, Xi stressed. Thongloun expressed his deep condolences on the death of Comrade Jiang, saying that this is a great loss for the CPC and Chinese people, and his Party and Lao people feel the same way. Calling Jiang a close friend to the Lao side, Thongloun said Jiang's visit to Laos in 2000 played an important leading role in the development of Lao-Chinese relations, as Jiang proposed the principle of long-term stability, good neighborliness, mutual trust and comprehensive cooperation. Xi and Thongloun Wednesday reiterated that the two sides firmly uphold this principle and vowed to uphold the spirit of being good neighbors, friends, comrades and partners. Win-win cooperation In April 2019, China and Laos signed an action plan to jointly build a community with a shared future. Since then fruitful cooperation results have been achieved and the China-Laos Railway is a vivid example. Xi told the Lao president that China will encourage more Chinese enterprises to invest in Laos, welcome more high-quality products from the Lao side to enter the Chinese market, and continue to provide assistance to the Lao side to alleviate the current difficulties it faces. He added the two sides should continue to expand exchanges and cooperation in science and technology, education, culture, tourism, health, youth and other fields as well as promote people-to-people bonds. Nowadays, China has become the second-largest trading partner and the country with the largest foreign direct investment in Laos. According to the Chinese Foreign Ministry, as of February 2022, China has invested a total of $13.27 billion in various types of investments in Laos. Within its capacity, China has provided assistance to Laos in the form of non-reimbursable assistance, interest-free loans or preferential loans in the fields of materials, complete project assistance, personnel training and technical support. China is the mainstay China is willing to deepen coordination and cooperation with the Lao side within the framework of Lancang-Mekong Cooperation and China-ASEAN cooperation, promote the common values of humanity and jointly maintain world peace, stability, development and prosperity, Xi noted. Thongloun said that under the complex changes the world is experiencing, China is the mainstay of maintaining world peace and stability and is committed to promoting common development and building a community with a shared future. https://news.cgtn.com/news/2022-11-30/Xi-holds-talks-with-Lao-president-1fnZjFTRH1K/index.html

Scarlet Nexus has just launched and we loved it. Check out our review right here. We've been quite excited for Scarlet Nexus for some time so it's finally time to ask some questions about its launch. We've already clarified which starting character you should pick so it's time to figure out everything else.
Although Xbox have really blown us out of the water with their E3 conference and recent Game Pass acquisitions, you may not be so happy with the news of Scarlet Nexus. Here's what you should know.
Is Scarlet Nexus Coming to Xbox Game Pass?
While it would be great to see it, we have got to the release date and it didn't come. Saying this, we knew it wouldn't weeks ago due to a conversation with a PR.
Over at VGC, Andy Robinson reached out to a PR who told them "We have no plans to bring Scarlet Nexus to Xbox Game Pass at this time and are excited for its launch on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and PC on June 25"
Why It Could Come Later
While this confirmed it wasn't coming just yet, this doesn't mean it won't come at some point. Bandai Namco's last action RPG Code Vein, arrived just a few months ago to the service on PC.
This is about a year and a half after its official release way back in September 2019. Maybe we could see Scarlet Nexus on Xbox Game Pass some time in 2022 or 2023. We will update here as soon as we find out any more information on Scarlet Nexus in the future. Hopefully, we will see it arrive.
