‫شبكة تلفزيون الصين الدولية (CGTN): وعود الصين لها شأنها، فهي دولة تفي بالتزاماتها

بكين، 18 مايو، 2021/PRNewswire/ — قال كونفوشيوس منذ أكثر من ألفي عام “Yan Bi Xin Xing Bi Guo”، وهي عبارة تعني أن: “على المرء أن يفي بوعوده وأن يكون عازمًا على أداء عمله”.

ولقد أكد الرئيس الصيني شي جين بينغ على ذلك قائلاً: “تؤكد الحضارة الصينية على ضرورة الوفاء بالوعود عند النطق بها، وعندما يتعلق الأمر بأشخاص غير أمناء، فإن المصداقية تكون موضعًا للشك”.

حافظت الصين على تطبيق هذه المقولة طوال عملية التنمية، وكانت الخطة الخمسية التي اتبعتها الدولة خير مثال على الوفاء بالالتزامات.

وعود تم الوفاء بها

تمثل الخطة الخمسية خطة يتم إنشاؤها كل خمس سنين منذ 1953، وهي ميزة رئيسية في نظام الحوكمة في الصين، وتعمل على وضع أهداف النمو وتحديد سياسات التنمية. باستثناء الفترة بين 1963 و1965، كان إجمالي ما تم وضعه 13 خطة، والأهم من ذلك أنه تم تنفيذها.

وتعد معركة الدولة ضد الفقر مثالاً على ذلك. كان إنقاذ جميع سكان الريف من الفقر بحلول 2020 ضمن أهداف الخطة الخمسية الثالثة عشر في الصين (في الفترة من 2016 إلى 2020). بعد انقضاء ثمانية أعوام من العمل، تم إبعاد جميع سكان الريف الفقراء في الصين، البالغ عددهم ما يقرب من 100 مليون شخص، عن خط الفقر في عام 2020.

كما حافظت الصين على التزاماتها كذلك فيما يخص الشؤون العالمية.

حددت قمة كوبنهاجن في 2009 هدفًا للصين لتحققه بحلول 2020، وهو استهلاك الطاقة غير الأحفورية بنسبة 15 بالمئة، ما استتبع خفضًا بنسبة 40 إلى 45 بالمئة من كثافة الكربون مقارنةً بالعام 2005. إن إحصائيات الصين للعام 2019 بلغت 15.3 بالمئة و48.1 بالمئة على التوالي، ما يعني أن البلاد تجاوزت الأهداف قبل الموعد المحدد وحققتها.

مقارنة بالعام 2005، انخفضت انبعاثات الاحتباس الحراري لكل وحدة من الناتج المحلي الإجمالي بنسبة 48 في المئة بحلول 2019 في الصين، وفقًا لوزارة البيئة، محققةً التزام الصين بأهداف 2020 قبل الموعد المحدد.

الخطة الخمسية الرابعة عشر في الصين: وعود جديدة يجب الوفاء بها

تشرع الصين في 2021 في خوض مرحلة جديدة تخص التحديث الاشتراكي، وذلك خلال الخطة الخمسية الرابعة عشر (في الفترة من 2021 إلى 2025).

يتعيّن تحقيق أهداف ملموسة خلال السنوات القادمة، والتي تتضمن عدم تخطي معدّل البطالة الذي يتم تسجيله في المناطق الحضرية نسبة 5.5 بالمئة، وتحقيق نمو سنوي بنسبة 7 بالمئة في الإنفاق على التنمية والبحوث.

كما وعدت الدولة بخفض استهلاك الطاقة لكل وحدة من الناتج المحلي الإجمالي بنسبة 13.5 بالمئة وخفض انبعاثات ثاني أكسيد الكربون بنسبة 18 بالمئة بهدف إقامة اقتصاد أخضر وتمهيد الطريق لتحقيق الهدف طويل الأمد المتعلق بانبعاث الكربون بحلول عام 2030.

قال شي في خطابه في قمة القادة بشأن المناخ في أبريل: “تسعى الصين إلى خفض انبعاثات ثاني أكسيد الكربون قبل 2030 وتحقيق التحييد الكربوني قبل 2060”.

وفي ظل هذه الخطط الطموحة، ينبغي ألا تتوقف الجهود الحثيثة للوفاء بالوعود.

كما أشار شي قائلاً: “خلال مدة الخطة الخمسية الرابعة عشر، علينا التمسك بفلسفة تركز على السكان وتمكّنهم من حصد ثمار التنمية. علينا بذل مزيد من الجهود لتحسين معيشة الشعب، وخلال ذلك ينبغي التشجيع على التنمية عالية الجودة. كما ينبغي إيلاء مزيد من الاهتمام بسبل المعيشة التي عادةً ما تحوز اهتمام السكان بشكل أكبر، وذلك من خلال اعتماد المزيد من التدابير المحددة وإنجازها واحدًا تلو الآخر، كما ينبغي العمل بجد سنة بعد سنة حتى يشعر شعبنا دائمًا بالرضا والسعادة والأمان”.

Bybit to Launch Ether Futures Contract

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 18 May 2021 – Cryptocurrency exchange Bybit has announced today it will launch Ether futures contract on May 20, further diversifying its offerings of the leading altcoin.

ETHUSD0625 will start trading on May 20 at or after 10AM UTC if liquidity conditions are met; ETHUSD0924 will start trading on May 24 at or after 10AM UTC if liquidity conditions are met. Ether futures will not require funding fee; so as long as the contracts are valid, traders can hold their positions free of charge.

The previously announced Bybit Cloud Mining, a mining-as-a-service (MaaS) product that gives users instant access to ETH mining from as little as $100, will arrive with ETHUSD0924 on May 24.

“As the Bitcoin price continues to stagnate, traders and investors are increasingly looking towards alternatives,” said Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit. “We are pleased to launch our new Ether futures contract as rising retail and institutional demand paves way for a new alt season. Ether futures contract and Bybit Cloud Mining join our existing ETHUSD and ETHUSDT perpetual contracts in the ETH product lineup, and will create new opportunities for our clients, whether they are looking to hedge their positions or to further capitalize on future price movements of ETH.”

ETH, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has seen its price explode 20-fold over the last 12 months, four times that of Bitcoin during the same period. The Ethereum gas fee has stabilized after April 15’s Berlin Upgrade, even as the upcoming EIP 1559 (London) fee market overhaul, expected in July, promises further gas cost reduction and a deflationary monetary policy.

INVNT Appoints Director of Business Development in EMEA To Support Brands as In-Person Experiences Return

Experienced hire will secure new business, nurture existing EMEA-based accounts, and drive agency and client growth

LONDON, UK, May 18, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — INVNT. The global live brand storytelling agency® has appointed Peter Clarke as Director of Business Development. Clarke joins from Smyle Creative, where he held the role of Client Relationships Manager for six years, and prior to that, was the Head of Business Development and Marketing at Pumphouse Productions.

Throughout his 30-year career Clarke has successfully developed and maintained meaningful relationships with brands including BT, EE, Diageo, Thomas Cook TUI, and Rolls Royce. This is thanks to his strategic and pro-active approach, which ensures the delivery of personalised, results-driven campaigns for clients across a range of sectors.

With 11 years’ specialist experience in the event and experiential industries across EMEA, Clarke brings an in-depth understanding of – and passion for – the ever-evolving hybrid, virtual and in-person event landscape to the role. He has helped clients achieve their goals across large-scale in-person conferences, exclusive VIP experiences, award-winning virtual events, and more.

Based in the UK, Clarke’s remit spans the entire EMEA region, and he will form an important part of the agency’s fast-growing global sales team.

This latest appointment – and INVNT’s continued growth – has been prompted by the success of recent projects – which have been recognised at awards such as the Virtual Events Institute’s (VEI) Virtual & Hybrid Event Awards – and ongoing work with brands including Samsung, SAP, PepsiCo, Merck MSD, Microsoft and Pfizer.

Claudia Stephenson, Managing Director, INVNT EMEA said: “Given the momentum we’ve experienced in EMEA in recent months, it’s evident that brands here are interested in our unique thinking and approach. They know that boundary pushing creativity and a commitment to challenging the status quo are essential to engaging virtually fatigued viewers, and we’re perfectly placed to develop strategic solutions that help them create meaningful connections with their audiences.

“Now as we emerge from the pandemic, Peter will play a pivotal role in ensuring we continue to deliver on clients’ expectations in a post-pandemic world. Leaning on his combined business development and strategic marketing experience, he will challenge clients to re-think and re-position their brand and offering, connect them with their most important audiences, and drive ROI. We’re so excited to have him on board!”

Scott Kerr, Chief Sales Officer of INVNT’s parent company, [INVNT GROUP] explained: “With more and more brands seeking interconnected global campaign solutions, Peter will help us to create seamless synergies for our clients across borders, while also ensuring regional executions account for the unique nuances of local markets.

“Peter’s extensive knowledge of not only events but the wider marketing sector makes him perfectly equipped to share our GROUP portfolio offering – which includes brand strategy, culture consulting, and branded content – with clients, resulting in greater ROI for their businesses. Our global sales team has experienced immense growth over the last 12 months, and we’re looking forward to having Peter join us on our continued journey to success.”

Clarke added: “I’m thrilled to be joining INVNT EMEA and their global sales team during this rapid phase of growth for the agency both in the region and around the world, as we enter a promising new era for the events industry. We’re all aware of the power and potency of face-to-face experiences, and I’m looking forward to working with the company’s creative minds to develop hyper-personalised hybrid and in-person event and marketing campaigns for brands and organisations in the region.”

مع نظام S3 Passenger الذي تستخدمه شركات وOUIGO وThalys/IZY وEurostar التابعة لشركة SNCF حظيت SNCF بالفعل بإمكانات تجارية محسنة ووقت محسن للتسويق وقوة النظام. بحلول نهاية عام 2023، فإن SNCF ستستخدم نظام S3 Passenger لخطوط TGV /inOUI وLyria وAlleo (TGV / ICE فرنسا- ألمانيا) وSVI (TGV فرنسا إيطاليا).”

وأضاف فوتر كاسزي، عضو مجلس إدارة Sqills والمؤسس المشارك: “نحن فخورون جدًا بأن S3 Passenger يغطي أكثر من 95% من متطلبات SNCF غير الاعتيادية. فهو يؤكد مكانتنا كمنصة الحجز الرائدة في العالم لمشغلي النقل العام”.

بحلول عام 2023، سوف ستخدم جميع علامات SNCF التجارية S3 Passenger كمنصة للمخزون والحجز وإصدار التذاكر. وقد أثبتت SNCF أنها عميل واسع المعرفة مبتكر للغاية ويتحلى بتفكير مستقبلي. سنعمل معًا لضمان تلبية الاحتياجات المستقبلية لشركة SNCF وعملائها أيضًا من خلال البحث والتطوير المستمر وتحسينات المنتج لضمان بقاء S3 Passenger على أعلى مستوى طوال مدة الاتفاقية.”

ويتابع فوتر كاسزي قائلًا: “إن الطلب المتزايد على رحلات السكك الحديدية بسبب المشاركة البيئية المتزايدة يعني أن المشغلون يحتاجون إلى معيار تجاري وتقني للاستفادة من الوقت القصير حتى السوق ونهج مرن يعتمد على التكوين فضلًا عن التخصيص، اعتمادًا على الخبرة التجارية من Sqills وجميع العملاء في مجتمع S3 Passenger. في عام 2021 وقعت Sqills بالفعل عقودًا مع ثلاثة عملاء جدد للنقل العام بما في ذلك السكك الحديدية السويدية (SJ). بحلول عام 2025، من المتوقع أن تقوم منصة S3 Passenger بمعالجة أكثر من 500 مليون قطاع ركاب سنويًا.

باعتبارها الشركة الرائدة عالميًا في حلول المخزون وحجز التذاكر والحجز، تتمتع Sqills بمكانة فريدة لمساعدة المشغلين على تحقيق أهدافهم.”

Ascensia Launches the GlucoContro.online Diabetes Management and Analytics Platform

BASEL, Switzerland, May 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Ascensia Diabetes Care, a leading global diabetes care company, has today announced that it has launched GlucoContro.online, a browser based diabetes management and analytics platform that enables data driven care for people using one of the meters in the CONTOUR^® blood glucose monitoring portfolio. Through a single platform, people with diabetes (PWDs) can access their diabetes data online and share it with their healthcare providers (HCPs) and caregivers through dedicated web Apps.

GlucoContro.online - Connecting the Dots in Diabetes Management

Using GlucoContro.online makes gathering, accessing and sharing blood glucose data straightforward for PWDs. The easy-to-use and intuitive cloud-based platform, opens directly in the browser and provides a simple wizard for data download. For those using one of the connected meters in the CONTOUR^® portfolio it gathers data directly from the CONTOUR^®DIABETES app or CONTOUR Cloud. It also provides the option for those not using a connected meter to share their data via a cable, which requires a simple single step installation, with no forced restart and the appropriate devices are found automatically. Once the data has been downloaded, the platform allows users to conveniently view data, generate reports and share them across their care team.

For HCPs and caregivers, GlucoContro.online allows them to easily view data, such as blood glucose measurements, insulin dosing, food and activity by simply opening a user profile on the platform, once the user has granted them permission.

In addition, the platform incorporates industry leading innovations and other features that address some of the challenges and concerns that HCPs and PWDs have experienced with existing platforms. These include the ability to instantly onboard patients through QR codes or a simple one-click invitation; the option for PWDs to store data in their own personal cloud drive or offline storage; and the ability to generate easy-to-read color coded charts and reports to speed up and make it easier for HCPs to analyze the data, alongside interactive aggregations or groupings.

Rob Schumm, President at Ascensia Diabetes Care commented: “Simplifying and improving the lives of people living with diabetes through innovative solutions is at the heart of all we do at Ascensia and the GlucoContro.online platform is a step towards achieving that. It has been borne out of clearly defined unmet needs from both healthcare professionals and people with diabetes. From its simple installation through to the functions that enable quick and easy access and analysis of data, it provides a valuable and uncomplicated way to share and use blood glucose and other data to help clinicians and people optimize their diabetes management.”

The platform, which has been piloted in Spain and KSA over the last six months, will be available in Slovenia, Italy, Poland, UK and Ireland by the end of Q2 and in Romania, Czech Republic, Serbia, Portugal, Bulgaria and Bosnia by the end of Q3, 2021. The long-term goal is to offer GlucoContro.online in all the 58 markets where the CONTOUR^®DIABETES app is available for download, subject to technical requirements being met.

GlucoContro.online is the outcome of a collaboration between Ascensia and SdNcenter, a Polish-based company specialized in delivering high-tech healthcare and integration solutions for enterprise customers worldwide. Through this cooperation is has been possible to build a platform which has the scalability to handle data from over 150 million patients, 10,000 clinics and 100,000 HCPs. It has also been designed to be able to collect additional data from other devices in the future, such as FitBit, Apple Health, Google Health and Smart Scales.
