DJI allays security fears after US issues warningployee holds t
Chinese drone manufacturer DJI said safety is at the core of everything the company does, and the security of its techn
ology has been independently verified by the United States government and leading US businesses.
The company’s statement came in response to an alert warning issued by the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
“We provide all our customers full and complete control over how thei
r data is collected, stored and transmitted. For government and critical infrastructure cust
omers that require additional assurances, we provide drones that do not transfer data to DJI or via the inte
rnet, and our customers can enable all the security steps DHS recommends,” the Shenzhen-based company said.

Different from the first several batches of tariffs that focused more on industrial and agricultural products, the most rece
nt 25 percent tariffs on Chinese imports target mostly consumer products, including sneakers, clothing and furniture.
Trump has, on his Twitter account, asserted that “there is no reason for the U.S. Consumer to pay the Tariffs”.
The open letter, however, said “there should be no misunderstanding” that US consumers pay for tariffs on products that are imported.
“As an industry that faces a $3 billion duty bill every year, we can assure you that any incr
ease in the cost of importing shoes has a direct impact on the American footwear consumer,” it said.
It is an “unavoidable” fact that as prices go up at the border due to transportation costs, labor r
ate increases or additional duties, the consumer pays more for the product, the footwear trade and business association said.
Ren said the current difficulties can spur China to devel
lop the electronics industry in a down-to-earth manner. Pouring in money is not enough to develop the s
emiconductor industry. Instead, talent, including mathematicians and physicists, is needed to grow the chip sector.
“Global talent is also needed. It is very difficult to rely solely on China’s independ
ent innovation to succeed. Why can’t we embrace the world and rely on global innovation?” Ren added.
Don’t fan nationalist sentiment,” Ren also warned. Currently, the attitudes toward Hua
wei are divided into two groups. One represents the genuine patriots who support Huawei, while the o
ther believes that Huawei has kidnapped the patriotic feelings of the entire society.
“We should stop others from shouting empty slogans and inciting nationalist sentiment,” Ren said.
From chips to its self-developed operating system, Huawe
wei has long been preparing for independent research and development in core technologies. It has the ab
ility to adjust to changes in the global market,” said Xiang Ligang, director-general of the Information Consumption Alliance.
Huawei has also made preparations with core chipsets. Existing st
ocks are thought to provide the company with a buffer of six months to a year, he said.
The root cause for the repeated twists and turns in the China-US trade talks lies, to a
great extent, in the United States’ serious deviation from, and disdain for, the objective laws of eco
nomics. The fact that China will never accept its unreasonable demands further complicates the matters for the US.
The US administration’s often competing and clashing objecti
ves－though many of them are understandable－cannot be realized simultaneously. For instance, the
US hopes to revive its industries and boost its real economy while maintaining the huge bubble in its financial market.
To make up for the increasing savings gap, the US need
eds to introduce and use more foreign capital, which will further enlarge
the trade deficit. Therefore, the US cannot simultaneously maintain a high growth r
ate, invest massively in infrastructure, reduce the trade deficit and restrict the inflow of foreign capital.
What is really questionable is that, despite its contempt for over-regu
lation of the economy, the US administration has been trying to impose regulations on int
ernational trade, even for its trade partners’ domestic economic management.
Results for US may be unsatisfactory
The US administration’s more often than not conflicting goals have
resulted in the trade conflicts with China and other countries. For instance, China’s exports to t
he US grew 11.3 percent and its trade surplus with the US increased to $323 billion in 2018, up 17.3 percent year-on-year.
This facial recognition app tells one panda from another
Having trouble discerning one furry panda from another? A facial recognition app will make it easy for you.
The app is developed by the China Conservation and Research Center for Giant Pandas
along with researchers in Singapore Nanyang Technological university and Sichuan Normal University.
The image analysis research kicked off in 2017. A database now contains about 120,000 images and 10,000 video clips of giant pandas.
Close to 10,000 panda pictures have been analyzed, marked and annotated.
Using the database, researchers are able to carry out automa
tic facial recognition on panda faces to tell one animal from another, the center said.

Also in Saturday’s call, Wang Yi urged the US to observe the one-China policy and the three joi
