According to Jakarta Post, on July 11th, Indonesian President Joko Widodo signed a decree allowing the authorities to issue land use permits in the form of "development rights" in the new capital. Potential investors must first apply for a 95 year use permit from the Nusanda Authority in the new capital, and can then double the application period. This means that investors can receive up to 190 years of use rights. At the same time, licenses issued in the form of "construction rights" and "use rights" also adopt the same model, allowing investors to apply for two 80 year use periods. The Indonesian civil society organization Agricultural Reform Alliance stated that Indonesia has never issued land use permits with such a long term in the past. This move will have a long-term impact on the residents around Xindu and is no different from a disaster in the Xindu areaSelling in Daping. According to authoritative analysts, foreigners are not allowed to own land in Indonesia, so allowing foreign investors to rent land for a long time is one of the ways to bypass restrictions. Indonesian authorities hope to attract foreign investors to move in in this way, but the current problem is that there are still legal issues of unclear land ownership rights or overlapping ownership rights in the areas that Indonesia has included in Xindu, which are difficult to solve for either party. According to Agence France Presse, on July 16th, a source from Myanmar's Ministry of Security stated that anti-government militants launched two rockets at the capital city of Naypyidaw, with no casualties. This is a rare attack by armed militants on the power center of the Burmese army. Naypyidaw is located in the mountainous region of central Myanmar, north of Yangon400 kilometers, it is the newly established capital of Myanmar in 2005. Most of the senior officials and civil servants of the Burmese military government live in Naypyidaw, so the surrounding areas of Naypyidaw are heavily guarded and not often attacked by armed militants. In April of this year, the People's Defense Forces, formed by the anti military government, launched dozens of drones at targets in Naypyidaw, causing the airport to temporarily close. However, the military government claimed that the attack did not cause significant losses. Due to the disadvantage of the People's Defense Forces in terms of military equipment and personnel, armed militants rely on the use of drones for combat, converting commercial drones into weapons capable of dropping bombs in an attempt to win through asymmetric warfare. At present, the Myanmar military government has not commented on this incident. 02The South Korean Ministry of Defense claims that North Korea has buried mines in the demilitarized zone According to Yonhap News Agency, on July 17th, the South Korean Ministry of National Defense announced that the North Korean military's recent mine laying operations in the northern part of the Demilitarized Zone have caused more than 10 explosion accidents, resulting in several casualties. The South Korean Ministry of National Defense also stated that the accommodation environment for the North Korean military is extremely poor, with no rest days or shifts, and even requiring overnight work, averaging 12 to 13 hours per day. The South Korean Ministry of Defense is responding to the situation where the North Korean military has surrendered to the South due to harsh operating conditions, as well as the possibility of the North Korean military crossing the military demarcation line during operations. In addition, the South Korean Ministry of National Defense also stated that considering that North Korea's mine laying areas are located near rivers that run through the Korean Peninsula, such as the Imjin River, the Niigawa River, the Hwanghae River, and the Yeongbuk River, heavy rainfall may cause mines to flow into South Korean territory through these rivers. This may be one of North Korea's latest provocations, and South Korea is prepared to respond. 0140% of American chip manufacturers' business comes from China According to Reuters, data shows that 43% of the sales of American semiconductor equipment and service provider Applied Materials from February to April this year came from China, a year-on-year increase of 22 percentage points. At the same time, the proportion of Chinese sales by American chip manufacturer Panlin Group increased by 20 percentage points from January to March this year, reaching 42%. It is reported that the United StatesRestricting the export of chip manufacturing equipment used for manufacturing cutting-edge semiconductors in 2022 aims to curb the development of Chinese semiconductors. The US government also passed the Chip and Science Act in the same year, providing subsidies for chip research and manufacturing in the United States, which prompted Intel, Samsung Electronics, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company to decide to invest in the United States. However, overall, despite the US government's efforts to establish supply chains domestically, the dependence of American chip equipment manufacturers on the Chinese market is still increasing, with exports to China accounting for over 40% of total sales. Moreover, China holds a significant position in the global chip market, and the International Semiconductor Equipment and Materials Association predicts that,Global chip manufacturing equipment sales are expected to increase by 3.4% to $109 billion in 2024, with over 30% coming from the Chinese market. 01Six foreigners died from cyanide poisoning in a Thai hotel According to a comprehensive report from Bangkok, on July 17th, Thai police disclosed the progress of their investigation into the mysterious deaths of six Vietnamese people in a hotel room. The head of the Evidence Office stated at a press conference that cyanide was found in the thermos and six tea cups in the room. The staff responsible for dissecting the bodies also revealed that cyanide was found in the bodies of all six victims. The lips and fingers of the deceased were deep purple, indicating that they had suffocated, while cyanide poisoning can cause suffocation in important organs of the human body such as the nervous system and heart. It can be concluded that all six deaths were caused by cyanide. Previously,On July 16th, six deceased individuals were found lying in a room on the fifth floor of the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Ratchaprasong District, Bangkok. These three men and three women are between the ages of 37 and 56, all of whom are Vietnamese, with two of them holding US citizenship. There were no bloodstains or signs of struggle in the room, and there were no obvious bruises or wounds on the body. The surveillance route showed that no one entered or left the room, so authorities believe that the mastermind of the case is among these six people. At present, Thailand has contacted the Vietnamese Embassy and the Federal Bureau of Investigation to assist in the investigation. 02The amount of melting water on the Antarctic ice shelf is much higher than previously predicted According to Xinhua News Agency, researchers from the University of Cambridge and other institutions in the UK recently published an article in the latest issue of Nature Geoscience, stating that they trained machine learning models to analyze monthly records of surface meltwater on 57 Antarctic ice shelves from 2013 to 2021, as well as to draw maps of Antarctic ice shelf snow and mud. They found that in January, the hottest summer month in Antarctica, 57% of the meltwater on the Antarctic ice shelf existed in the form of snow and mud, which is snow soaked in water, while the rest existed in surface ponds and lakes. Researchers say that both snow and mud, as well as meltwater present in surface ponds or lakes, can affect the stability of ice shelves and lead to rising sea levels. However, in general, regional climate change models do not take into account this amount of melting water, which means that the amount of melting water on the Antarctic ice shelf is much higher than previously predicted, and the problems of global warming and sea level rise are even more severe than previously estimated. Recently, according to news from the United States,An international research team reconstructed a well preserved mammoth sampleThe 3D structure of mammoth chromosomes from 52000 years ago.It is reported that researchers areAfter testing dozens of samples over the course of five years, Yu was ultimately selectedAn exceptionally well preserved mammoth sample excavated in northeastern Siberia in 2018. The studied mammoth has 28 chromosomes, which is the same as the number of chromosomes in Asian and African elephants today. Researchers useYes, it isA species calledThe Hi-C method extracted DNA from skin samples behind the ears of mammoths, combined its relevant physical information with DNA sequencing to identify interacting DNA fragments, and successfully created an ordered map of the mammoth genome using today's elephant genome as a template,And establishedRelated chromosomes3D structure. Although the method used in this study depends on well preserved ancient samples, the researchers are optimistic that the method can also be used to study other ancient DNA specimens, among others.
