Regardless of the weather, twice a day, Mrs. Hai Tri stands by the signboard in the middle of the crowded lane to help students get home safely from school. The human 'mobile sign' The scorching, suffocating and dusty summer road of Hung Nhon (Hamlet 3, Tan Kien Commune, Binh Chanh District, Ho Chi Minh City) at 11pm does not keep Ms. Nguyen Thi Bach Phuong (Ms. Hai Tri, 62) from going out to offer students of Tan Kien Secondary School support as they struggle to cross the crowded roads. Grabbing her conical leaf hat, she rushes out onto the noisy lanes jam- packed with vehicles holding a sign: “Please stop for a second and let students cross the street". Whenever a large car approaches with no intention of slowing down, she points the board towards it to ask for giving roads. When she notices that the two lines of cars has slowed down, she graciously leads the students across until they are safe, she then motions for the drivers to move normally. Year after year, Ms. Hai … [Read more...] about 70-year-old woman acts as school crossing supervisor for free

What's new for Philips TVs in 2021? The electronics manufacturer has now unveiled its new 2021 TV range, which contains some big changes – as well as a continuation of what worked so well in previous years. The arrival of Mini LED is the most notable change, even if it shows Philips walking in step with the likes of LG with its new QNED range, and the new Samsung TVs that will be making use of the advanced backlight technology. Philips' is mainly known for its proprietary Ambilight projection system, though, which throws onscreen colors and shades onto the wall around the screen – and 2021 will see it return in earnest, with four-sided Ambilight coming to all 2021 OLED and Mini LED TVs. The company set a high bar last year, with the Philips OLED+935 , a high-end OLED TV with four-sided Ambilight and 70W of sound from audio specialist Bowers & Wilkins – as well as the competitively priced OLED 754 , which was the cheapest OLED TV in the UK when it launched. … [Read more...] about Philips TV 2021: every OLED, Mini LED and Ambilight TV coming this year

Tribute ritual is held to commemorate Hoang Sa soldiers. The event included a traditional offering ritual, the garlands and model wooden boats carrying soldiers and sailors out to sea. The traditional ceremony held annually for hundreds of years on the island is a tribute to the sailor-soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country and symbolize Vietnam’s sovereignty over the Hoang Sa (Paracel) archipelago. About 3-4 centuries ago under the Nguyen Lords’ mandate, 70 of the island’s best seafarers were chosen to safeguard their homeland’s maritime rights and explore the East Sea every year. In mid-sixteenth century, the Hoang Sa Flotilla was established to conduct marine patrol and control, exploit marine products and collect ship-wrecked cargoes floating to Hoang Sa and Truong Sa areas. Ly Son Island, a tranquil destination 30km off Quang Ngai Province's coast, is home to about 2,100 residents. Most make their living fishing, and farming garlic and spring onions. Ly Son … [Read more...] about Ritual commemorating soldiers of ancient Hoang Sa Flotilla held

Credit has not been effectively channeled into fields that contribute directly to economic growth and ultimately social prosperity, but to risky fields such as real estate, stock market or cryptocurrencies. The current low-interest rate environment as a result of monetary easing policy adopted by the Vietnamese government is channeling social capital into risky fields of real estate or stock market, instead of production and business activities.

Photo: Pham Hung Pham The Anh, chief economist at the Vietnam Institute for Economic and Policy Research (VEPR), told Hanoitimes in reference to the overheating of asset markets in recent months. “With a cheap money policy from the central bank, investors tend to stay away from business and production expansion, which seems to be riskier than betting on real estate or stock markets,” Anh noted.

The city’s authorities mull ways to further boost the night economy to revive the tourism industry.

Existing advantages A study on the development of night time industry in Hanoi, Danang and Ho Chi Minh City shows that economic activities in Vietnam are bustling from 7am to 5pm, according to Director of the Institute for Tourism Development Research Nguyen Anh Tuan. However, day light consumption only generates 30% of the tourism revenue. Meanwhile, the favorite time for tourists to dig deep into their pockets is from 6 pm to 3 am the next day and so the tourism sector earns 70% its revenue from night consumption, Tuan said. Since 2016, the Hanoi city government has allowed walking spaces around Hoan Kiem Lake and bars and … [Read more...] about Hanoi looks to boost potential of night economy

It had to face up to the reality that new regulations had appeared to hamper the low rake runners more than their high rake counterparts. However, while fellow low rake runner Aston Martin has continued to struggle to maximise its package in response to this, Mercedes has made clear progress with its car. For although the W12 has still been labelled a bit ‘knife edge’ by Lewis Hamilton, the car has noticeably got more stable as time has progressed – and that has drawn it closer to Red Bull. The team's development and setup focus has clearly been at the rear of the car, with the team evaluating two rear wing options during Imola’s Friday free practice sessions. Both had slightly different downforce levels but perhaps more importantly they sported different support pillar designs. This is not a new tactic for Mercedes, as it spent a good chunk of last season conducting similar tests in an effort to understand which trade off would suit their requirements for … [Read more...] about How Mercedes has turned the corner on its knife-edge W12
