一 | A US federal grand jury has indicted one current and one former Department of Homeland Security (DHS) worker in connection with an alleged scheme to silence critics of the Chinese government, in which a total of five people were involved, according to the Justice Department.,The indictment revealed on Thursday that DHS employee Craig Miller and Derrick Taylor, a retired DHS agent working as a private investigator, are accused of accessing and providing information about Chinese activists from a restricted government database to two more defendants, who then used the records to target the victims.,Beijing Says China Ready to Work With US Partners on Improving Bilateral Relations30 October 2020, 11:47 GMT,US prosecutors claimed that Fan “Frank” Liu, Qiang “Jason” Sun, and Matthew Ziburis perpetrated a campaign to “spy on, harass and discredit” dissidents living in the US and to crush criticism of Beijing.,According to the prosecutors, an unspecified artist in California was among the “dissidents” allegedly targeted by the defendants. The prosecutors argued that Ziburus posed as a dealer interested in buying the painter’s artwork, and secretly installed surveillance cameras and GPS devices at the artist’s studio and in his car. The defendants purportedly planned to destroy the dissident’s artwork.,Referring to the indictment, Matthew Olsen, Assistant US Attorney General for National Security, pledged that he and his colleagues “will defend the rights of people in the United States to engage in free speech and political expression, including views the PRC [People’s Republic of China] government wants to silence.”,“As charged, these individuals aided agents of a foreign government in seeking to suppress dissenting voices who have taken refuge here. The defendants include two sworn law enforcement officers who chose to forsake their oaths and violate the law,” Olsen added.,The remarks followed the Chinese Foreign Ministry describing the US as “the biggest threat to world peace, stability and development.” Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijan told reporters that “the relevant US politician has been playing up the so-called China threat to smear and attack China.”,“We urge this US official to have the right perspective, see China’s developments in an objective and reasonable manner, and stop spreading lies and stop making irresponsible remarks," Zhao stressed.,He referred to FBI Director Christopher Wray earlier delivering a speech at the MI5 building in London, where he warned of the "complex, enduring and pervasive danger" that China purportedly poses to both the US and the UK.,China Against Defining Relations With US as 'Competition'7 October 2021, 08:24 GMT,Wray said that the Chinese government “poses an even more serious threat to Western businesses than even many sophisticated business people realize,” arguing that the "danger" from China is "complex and growing.”,“The Chinese government is trying to shape the world by interfering in our politics, and those of our allies. All of that is to say – China poses a far more complex and pervasive threat to businesses than even the most sophisticated company leaders realize,” the FBI director pointed out.,He spoke after America’s National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC) accused China of seeking to “exploit US subnational relationships to influence US policies and advance PRC geopolitical interests.”。 (ECNS) — From artificial intelligence reshaping the workplace to the rapid growth of industries such as integrated circuits, aerospace and biomedicine, Chinese students studying abroad are facing an increasingly diverse set of choices about what comes after graduation — and where they want to build their future. Those questions were at the center of a recent gathering of representatives from Chinese student associations at overseas universities, held at the headquarters of the Western Returned Scholars Association (WRSA) in Beijing. Discussions ranged from career opportunities in China to the role students can play in fostering greater understanding across cultures. One practical question ran throughout the event: How can young people with international experience make the most of new opportunities emerging in China? Xu Chen, executive director for campus and international business at Zhaopin.com, described the changing workplace as moving from a “human-driven” model toward “human-AI collaboration” and, increasingly, an “AI-driven” one. Artificial intelligence is not simply changing existing jobs, he said. It is also reshaping the skills employers value, making the ability to work effectively with AI and apply professional expertise to real-world problems increasingly important. China’s changing industrial landscape is opening up new possibilities as well. Xu pointed to integrated circuits, aerospace, biomedicine, high-end equipment manufacturing, industrial software and intelligent connected vehicles as areas offering strong prospects. Emerging fields such as quantum technology, biomanufacturing, hydrogen energy and nuclear fusion could create further opportunities. For Chinese students studying abroad, these trends are creating new links between the skills and perspectives they acquire overseas and the needs of fast-growing industries in China. But careers were only part of the conversation. Another recurring theme was how students living and studying overseas can help bridge cultural gaps through everyday interaction. At a roundtable on cross-cultural communication, returned graduates and representatives of Chinese student associations discussed how students can help their international peers gain a more nuanced understanding of China. Representatives from student organizations in six countries also shared experiences of campus life, community-building and exchanges with local students and communities. Sun Xinglun, vice president of the Association of Chinese Students and Scholars at Yale, said meaningful communication does not always require grand narratives. A celebration of a Chinese festival, a campus cultural event or even an everyday conversation with a classmate can provide a window into China. Rather than simply explaining China to others, students can begin with subjects their peers are genuinely interested in and draw on their own experiences of studying and living abroad. Such personal exchanges can make cross-cultural communication more natural and relatable. Chinese student associations are also taking on broader roles on overseas campuses. Beyond helping new arrivals adjust to university life, many organize academic events, career programs, cultural activities and community initiatives that bring Chinese students into closer contact with their universities and local communities. In doing so, students are not simply participants in campus life. Their experience of moving between languages, social environments and cultural perspectives can put them in a unique position to connect people who might otherwise have few opportunities to interact. For many participants, studying abroad is therefore about more than earning a degree. It is also about learning how different societies work, understanding different ways of thinking and becoming comfortable communicating across cultural boundaries. Whether they eventually return to China or continue their studies and careers overseas, those experiences can become an asset in an increasingly interconnected world. The program also included sharing sessions on overseas study experiences and employment trends for graduates returning to China. Participants later visited an exhibition tracing the more than century-long history of the Western Returned Scholars Association and the experiences of generations of Chinese who studied overseas before returning to contribute to the country’s development. 。
