The Power of China’s Economic Growth: A Rising Tide or a Sinking Ship?

Hình ảnh
According to the Financial Post, the IMF predicts China’s growth rate to reach 4.5% in 2025, despite several measures taken to boost the country’s economy, such as increased net exports and additional funds. China’s challenges extend beyond its borders, as its ongoing trade war with the United States has resulted in new tariffs imposed by both nations, creating economic repercussions worldwide. IMF Deputy Director Gita Gopinath has drawn attention to the US-China tensions and their global impact. “We are observing geopolitically driven trade shifts worldwide,” she noted during a media briefing, adding that “while overall trade to GDP remains stable, the dynamics of who trades with whom are definitely changing.” In 2024, the number of trade tariffs between China, the EU, and the US has increased. Both the EU and the US have cited unfair trade practices and overmanufacturing by China as reasons for imposing higher tariffs, as local industry players feel disadvantaged. China h...

Artist Pham Binh Chuong commemorates 25 years of dedication to realism and 20 years of capturing the essence of Hanoi with the inauguration of his exhibition, Xuong Pho (Going Downtown). This marks the 4th installment of the Xuong Pho series since its inception in 2004 and the 6th solo exhibition showcasing the artist’s remarkable talent.

Binh Lieu: The “Great Wall” of Vietnam

Hình ảnh
Photo: viettravel Binh Lieu is a district located in the northeast of Quang Ninh province, Binh Lieu is about 300 km from Hanoi. This place has a mild year-round climate, diverse terrain structure, and beautiful natural scenery, which is like a “miniature Sapa” also known as the “Great Wall” of Vietnam because the mountains here are shaped like giant winding walls. The highlight of Binh Lieu tourism is probably the towering ridges covered with white reed grass in late autumn and early winter, or the charming beauty of terraced fields and Khe Van waterfall. But that’s not all, Binh Lieu also has attractive “challenging” destinations, especially for young people. Photo: commonswiki Binh Lieu has a diverse topographical structure of the high mountains belonging to the Dong Trieu – Mong Cai front. There are some peaks above sea level (over 1000 meters) such as Cao Ba Lanh (1,113 meters high), and Cao Xiem peak (1,472 meters high). In the total natural area of 47,51...
