[Photo/VCG] BEIJING -- Historians across the Taiwan Strait are working on the second book of a serial study on the war against Japanese aggression during the World War II, according to the Revolutionary Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang (RCCK) Central Committee which held a seminar here on Sunday. The book may be titled The Yangtze River and Anti-Japanese War and will soon be published, said the Central Committee of RCCK, one of the non-communist parties in the mainland, which sponsored the writing and publishing of the book. The first book, titled The Great Wall and Anti-Japanese War, was published in 2016, also sponsored by the RCCK. While working on the two books, the museums, archives, witnesses and their families across the Strait actively contributed and historians from the two sides tried their best to reconstruct the history objectively and comprehensively, said Zheng Jianbang, executive vice chairman of the RCCK Central Committee, at the seminar on how to engage young people across the Strait in the historical study of the war against Japanese aggression. He hoped that the two sides would value the spiritual legacy left by the ancestors and enhance mutual trust through this collective memory. Young people from Taiwan should learn more about this part of the history so that they could carry on the task of the older generation and work for the national reunification and rejuvenation, said Yok Mu-ming, chairman of Taiwan-based New Party, at the seminar. cheap custom silicone wristbands free shippingcustom awareness wristbandssilicone wristbands edmonton1 inch wide silicone wristbandsbracelets with sayings customize

[Photo/Xinhua] HANGZHOU - More Chinese universities have joined a program that encourages the recycling of cardboard used for packaging billions of items dispatched after the country's annual shopping spree on Nov 11. According to the Cainiao Network, Alibaba's logistics arm, more than 100 universities across China have set up recycling points on campus for students to recycle cardboard boxes. China's e-commerce operators dispatched 1.35 billion items after the Singles' Day shopping bonanza, up by 25.12 percent year on year, according to the State Post Bureau. Nearly 20 percent of consumers were aged under 23, according to Alibaba. Each year, the number of packages has been almost doubling at universities, said Pu Hao, head of a Cainiao distribution center for Zhejiang University City College (ZUCC) in Hangzhou, which joined the program earlier this year. Pu said the center has handled more than 6,000 packages per day in the days following Nov. 11, doubling the number during off-peak season. Around half of students recycle their boxes, and I expect the number to grow in the future, Pu said. According to Cainiao, a total of 5,000 recycling points had been set up in communities in and around 200 Chinese cities for Single's Day this year. In the future, these recycling points will be permanent and the company will offer incentives such as online credit to consumers for encouraging an environment-friendly lifestyle, Cainiao said.
