A 7.8 earthquake followed by a 7.5 aftershock hit southern Turkey near the Syrian border. There are 2,300 dead across the two countries and that will continue to rise as workers search through the rubble. Unfortunately most buildings in that area are built of brick and mortar, which don't have much defense against earthquakes.

The State of the Union address will be tomorrow at 21:00 EST.

Hong Kong started its national security trial. Two years ago many pro-Democracy leaders were arrested on conspiracy to commit subversion charges. This trial is being seen as how far Xi and the party's influence has taken control.

Over the weekend there was an incident over a balloon that originated from China. The US claims it had spy equipment, China said it was a civilian manufacture for weather monitoring purposes. The US waited for the balloon to traverse the country and eventually shot it down in the Atlantic Ocean, where the military is now going through the debris. It is unknown who is right at this point, but it was very large for a weather balloon (about two buses together, which is why the US didn't want to down it over land).

Dell is shedding 5% of its workforce. The Wall Street Journal has a thorough article listing all the recent layoffs since the beginning of the year.

A sixth police officer was fired for his involvement in Tyre Nichols' death. He was already under suspension, and is under consideration for criminal charges.

House Republicans voted to removed Representative Omar (D-MN) from the Foreign Affairs Committee. Omar is part of the "the Squad," a group of very progressive Democrats, who draw a lot of ire from Republicans. Omar has gotten criticism for anti-Israel/antisemitic remarks, which is what Republicans removed her for. 

At least 34 are dead in Somaliland. In the early 90s Somaliland said it broke away from Somalia, but that to this day hasn't garnered much international recognition. Every now and then there is still fighting over this dispute, and it seems this was one of them.

Israeli forces killed five in the West Bank during a firefight.

Pervez Musharraf, former military leader turned president of Pakistan, died at age 79. He led a coup in 1999 and a few years later held elections where he became president. His tenure was a very transformative time for Pakistan, both good and bad.

The form reached my inbox as part of routine paperwork, but I sensed a tinge of accusation. I had been invited to speak at a national laboratory. In order to access the facility, I was required to attest that I wasn’t a participant in a foreign talent recruitment program. China, my birth country, topped a short list of “countries of risk.”

I found the vigilance slightly amusing. I was going to give a talk! In a dash of mischievousness, I thought of scrawling over the form: “D-I-S-S-I-D-E-N-T!”

I have never liked the word “dissident” or claimed to be one, though others have labeled me as such. The point of the story is not that I��m special, but that I should have nothing to prove in the first place. No amount of public critique of Beijing’s policies or the personal cost dissent exacts can spare me from the extra scrutiny. As a Chinese person living in the US, I’m often treated as a potential spy before I’m seen as a human being.

Espionage was once considered antithetical to American individualism. The term invoked imperial European courts—the word spy originated from Old French, espie—and British secret agents, symbols of an old world that the young republic was trying to break away and distinguish itself from. The carnage of World War II shattered America’s isolationist proposition. Joining its newly founded clandestine services was lauded as patriotic. In the long shadows of the Cold War, the enemy agent in the popular imagination was someone hiding a Russian accent. Three decades after the fall of the Soviet Union, as China emerges as a new superpower and contests US hegemony, the face of foreign espionage in the West has become Chinese.

It’s not just that Chinese students and scientists are routinely depicted as puppets of Beijing and conduits of intellectual property theft. The tint of racialized suspicion has seeped into anything “made in China.” Communications equipment from Huawei and ZTE are lurking in the airwaves. TikTok is “the spy in Americans’ pockets.” US authorities deem Chinese-manufactured cargo cranes a possible national security threat; in the words of a former head of counterintelligence, “cranes can be the new Huawei.” The acquisition of American farmlands by Chinese firms has also been met with alarm: The properties could be used as a “perch for spying,” so the argument goes. When a Chinese high-altitude surveillance balloon flew across parts of the US before it was shot down over the Atlantic, the mass hysteria had less to do with the balloon itself—even the Pentagon acknowledged it posed minimal risk—and more to do with the state of the national psyche. The floating object was the materialization of a constant dread, the embodiment of an alien intrusion.

Each time an objectionable act becomes racialized, such as how “crime” is coded as Black and “terrorism” as Muslim after 9/11, the problem is not that every individual from the minority group is innocent but that the collective is regarded as uniquely guilty, and anyone who shares the identity is implicated by association. The ethnicization of espionage in the US as a distinctly Chinese threat is rooted in centuries-old Orientalism and reinforces racial stereotypes. The rhetoric is weaponized to expand state power and advance special interests. The illusion of protection by discriminatory means obscures fundamental questions about our relationships with technology and the state, as well as how to navigate between our intimate and communal selves. In a world of privatized commons and militarized borders, who sees or cannot be seen? For whose benefit, and to what end?

A prominent 19th-century science manual instructs that a person’s “faculty of Secretiveness” can be measured by how much the shape of the nostrils resembles that of a Chinese nose. Published in New York in 1849, the book asserts that the people of China “are the most remarkable people in the world for secretiveness.” This view, widely held at the time, was echoed by the American diplomat and travel writer Bayard Taylor, who claimed that “the Chinese are, morally, the most debased people on the face of the earth,” whose “character cannot even be hinted.”

As waves of Chinese migrants left a crumbling Qing empire for distant shores, their presence disrupted a fragile white identity based on native dispossession and the transatlantic slave trade. Moral panic ensued. Popular literature described the Chinese people as mysterious, with inner worlds as cryptic as their written script. The new arrivals were treated as an invading species, who were stealing jobs, spreading disease, and corrupting the body politic.

In 1912, the British novelist Sax Rohmer, a white man, invented a character who epitomized the West’s fears and fantasies about the Orient: Dr. Fu Manchu. The supervillain and mad scientist is “Yellow Peril incarnate.” Inspired by the works of Bayard Taylor, Rohmer described Fu Manchu’s face as inscrutable, an impenetrable mask concealing his evil plots. Ironically, in over a dozen film adaptations over the decades, the character has only been played by white actors.

The projection of one’s insecurities onto the other is always riddled with contradictions. In the West, the Chinese people are portrayed as both primitive—so they need to steal technology—and scientifically advanced, with superior spying capabilities. The Middle Kingdom is either hopelessly stuck in the past or already inhabiting the future, where an ancient wisdom bestows startling foresight. The only consistency in these conflicting prejudices is an othering stance. The people of China are regarded as so radically different they’re relegated to a different temporal plane, while the present belongs to the West.

During the Mao era, Western writers used the phrase “blue ants” to describe the Chinese population, in reference to the light navy uniforms of the time. This image of the Chinese people as faceless, mindless automatons has also shaped American perceptions of Chinese spycraft, most notably in the so-called “thousand grains of sand” theory. Proposed by FBI analysts in the 1980s, the metaphor goes like this: To gather intelligence about a beach, the Russians would send in a submarine and frogmen, the Americans would use satellites, and the Chinese would simply dispatch a thousand tourists, each collecting a single grain of sand. The theory has been refuted—Beijing’s intelligence operations are not so different from those in other countries and mostly rely on professionals—but not before it had been hailed as doctrine for decades and cast a distorting light on every Chinese visitor as a potential foreign agent.

This February, during the first hearing by the newly established House Select Committee on China, former national security adviser H. R. McMaster described the pervasiveness of Chinese industrial espionage in graphic terms: “If you bolt your front door, they’re coming through the window. If you bolt your windows and put up screens, they’re going to tunnel under your house.” According to the retired general, the “many vectors of attack” demanded “a holistic approach.” As I listened to the hearing, I wondered how many who had heard these words pictured an army of ants creeping through the cracks, sweeping up every grain of sand.

Three days before its debut hearing, the House Select Committee on China held a rally and press conference in Manhattan, outside a commercial building in Chinatown.

"This innocent-looking building that you see behind me has an unauthorized secret police station linked to the Chinese Communist Party," said Congressman Mike Gallagher, who chairs the committee. According to law enforcement officials and some human rights groups, the Chinese government operates dozens of overseas police outposts, including three in the US, which can be used to surveil local Chinese communities and suppress dissent. Weeks after the press conference, the FBI arrested two men associated with the office in Manhattan on charges of conspiring to act as foreign agents and destroying evidence. On the same day, the Justice Department also charged 44 individuals, believed to be based in China, on crimes related to online harassment and intimidation against Chinese nationals in the US.

I watched a video of the press conference. Members of the Chinese and Tibetan diaspora stood behind the congressional delegates. They held up signs that read “Condemn the CCP’s transnational repression.” But one item from the demonstration caught my attention: a pale balloon with a Chinese national flag sticker on one side, and three letters on the other, “SPY.”

I reckon that the choice of prop might have been tactical. By holding up a white party balloon, the protesters were trying to invoke a common angst over Beijing’s aggression. For those of us who have crossed oceans and political systems, to still live under the watchful eyes of the home government can be a profoundly lonely experience, not unlike that of being a racialized minority. In the words of a Chinese human rights activist who spoke at the rally, “This is the first time that the Chinese basic community feel that their grievance is heard by the American public.”

However, the emotional appeal from minority members for official intervention can inadvertently imperil the same communities in need of protection. By casting violations of civil liberties through the sweeping lens of national security, Washington’s hardened response helps fuel racial bias, which can easily mistake targets of transnational repression as its suspected perpetrators. The emphasis on legal status and political allegiance in immigrant communities normalizes the nation and its borders, and reinforces a Cold War binarism where China and the US stand as polar opposites.

In 2001, as a member of the Washington state legislature, Representative Cathy McMorris Rodgers blocked a bill that would replace the word “Oriental” with “Asian” in official documents. This March, at the highly anticipated congressional hearing featuring TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew, Rodgers, now chair of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, declared at the start, “We do not trust that TikTok will ever embrace American values.”

For the next five and a half hours, Chew, who is Singaporean of Chinese descent, tried valiantly to distance his employer as well as himself from ties to China. During his five-minute opening remarks, Chew mentioned his Singaporean upbringing, his education in the UK and the US, and that his wife was born in Virginia. In response to questions of whether TikTok or its parent company ByteDance is “a Chinese company,” Chew was evasive: “What is a company that is now global?”

Chew’s responses, packaged in notably Americanized English, did little to assuage skeptics on the committee. Many lawmakers believe the short-video app is a weapon in disguise, developed by a foreign adversary to poison American minds and extract Americans’ data. One piece of evidence, repeatedly cited to corroborate the claim that TikTok is de facto spyware, is China’s National Intelligence Law. Enacted in 2017, the legislation states that “all organizations and citizens shall support, assist, and cooperate with national intelligence efforts.”

The focus on the Chinese government’s subpoena power as a unique feature of its authoritarian system overlooks the many ways American companies cooperate with the state. Local and federal law enforcement routinely utilize access to social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook, private security cameras, and cell phone networks to criminalize and surveil, at times without proper authorization. The sweeps have been directed against migrants at the southern border, people seeking abortion services, and Black Lives Matter protesters. On the other hand, Chinese companies like Alibaba and Tencent have refused requests from state agencies to hand over customer data.

The caricature of an almighty Beijing with absolute control feeds into the age-old misconception that the Chinese people are submissive subjects devoid of individual agency, who can only act out of national loyalty or political coercion, but never for personal interest or financial gain like their counterparts in the West. While the ruling party of China is nominally communist and maintains a Leninist structure, the country has been an integral player in global capitalism for decades. Yet, during the TikTok hearing, the word “communist” is frequently uttered, not to inform but to exoticize. The tone is reminiscent of an earlier era, when the United States claimed the holy mantle to save the colored masses of the world from the red menace.

TikTok is not a product of communism but of surveillance capitalism. As China moves from the margins to the center of global capitalism, the panic over Chinese espionage is inseparable from the apprehension about the West in decline. History repeats itself as Florida and several other states pass or propose legislation restricting Chinese citizens from purchasing property, citing security concerns. Similar excuses were used for the “alien land laws” in the early 1900s that barred Chinese and Japanese immigrants from land ownership. The spying allegations against TikTok and other Chinese products are often hypothetical: It’s not so much about what the companies have done or even what they can do; China is used as a foil to project American fears and desires. After all, the US military and intelligence agencies are pioneers in surveillance technology and foreign interference. As it was in the aftermath of 9/11, a perceived threat is used to justify massive expansions of executive power, which also include the ability to monitor and manipulate, both at home and abroad. The Senate bill to ban TikTok has been aptly called a “Patriot Act for the internet.”

To continue operating in the US under ByteDance ownership, TikTok has proposed to store American user data exclusively on US-based servers run by Oracle. The plan, Project Texas, is named after the state Oracle is headquartered in. The software giant, proudly American, boasts clients that include “all four branches of the US military,” the CIA, and local law enforcement. It has also marketed surveillance tools to Chinese police. Without universal data protection standards, the mere imposition of a national border around data does little to mitigate risk or reduce harm; instead, the border only helps determine who has the right to exploit the data and commit harm.

Oracle is one of the largest data brokers in the world. In a report released in June, the US Intelligence Community acknowledged that commercially available information, which “includes information on nearly everyone,” has reached a scale and sophistication on par with targeted, more intrusive surveillance techniques. The private data market is loosely regulated and open to all. US spy agencies are among its countless clients.

“Everyone is being surveilled constantly, but it’s always ‘Shoot the balloon!’ and never ‘Unplug Alexa.’” This line, delivered by comedian Bowen Yang on Saturday Night Live, encapsulates the quotidian reality of mass surveillance and the hypocrisy in official responses. After capitalism has commodified just about everything that sustains life—land, water, health care, to name a few, its latest site of extraction is life itself: our time, attention, movements, and presence. All can be captured, converted into data, and traded as commerce.

For years, this virtually unfettered transaction has benefited US companies and is aligned with Washington’s agenda. China’s economic rise, coupled with Beijing’s belligerence, has shifted this calculus. As US authorities place more restrictions on the transnational exchange of money, goods, information, and people in the name of security, at times in conflict with the demands of capital, the two superpowers increasingly mirror each other in their paranoia and protectionist stance. The Chinese government recently revised its anti-espionage legislation. The new law, which went into effect on July 1, broadens the definition of spying, grants the state more power to inspect facilities and electronic devices, and further limits foreign access to domestic data. Citing the new legislation, China’s Ministry of State Security proclaimed in a social media post that “Counterespionage needs mobilization from all of society,” while FBI director Christopher Wray has repeatedly stated that a “whole-of-society” approach is necessary to fight against threats from China. In Beijing's propaganda materials alerting Chinese citizens of foreign intelligence activities, the spy is routinely depicted as a white man.

The bodies we inhabit are never ours alone. In the age of surveillance capitalism, the bounds of our private existence are endlessly encroached on by the richest and mightiest of interests, who also dictate the terms of extraction and exploitation. In this uneven battle, privacy is more than an individual right; it’s a form of communal care. An encrypted message requires effort and trust from both the sender and the receiver. The decisions we make about seeing or not being seen also configure the spaces we move in; they affect how others see and are seen. To reclaim our sovereign yet porous selves, we must reimagine space—physical as well as digital, social as well as legal—and interrogate its many borders: around nation, race, gender, class, property and the commons.

What if safety is achieved not by violent organs of the state but through their abolition? What if we reject the false binaries proposed by status quo powers and choose liberation? What if, instead of imprisoning our identities within predefined labels, we refuse to be categorized? What if we make ourselves illegible to convention, corrupt the code, glitch the mainframe, and disrupt the ceaseless flow of datafication? A secret language opens up pathways to fugitive spaces, where an uncompromised presence is restored and alternative futures are in rehearsal.

Sounding out the naval barge on Seneca Lake

By Jonathan Monfiletto

The next time you are driving along Seneca Lake, on State Route 414 along the eastern shore or – if you are traveling through Yates County – State Route 14 along the western shore, gaze into the middle of the lake and see if you find an interesting-looking platform floating on the surface. It shouldn’t be too hard to find, but you might wonder just what you are looking at.

This platform is, in fact, a barge anchored in the middle of Seneca Lake off the shore at Dresden. Indeed, the operation is officially known as the Seneca Lake Sonar Test Facility under the auspices of the Naval Sea Systems Command and the Naval Undersea Warfare Center of Newport, Rhode Island. Though it appears only civilian employees work there and no military personnel are stationed there, one could say this facility represents the only presence of the U.S. Navy existing in the Finger Lakes.

According to its website, the Seneca Lake Sonar Test Facility does just that – performing tests and evaluations of equipment to include sonar arrays and systems – and is known for its massive lift and power capabilities. Acoustic testing professionals carry out tests on systems and equipment of all sizes, even an entire sonar suite mounted in its sonar compartment.

Because it is a deep freshwater lake that is open all year, Seneca Lake is the Navy’s primary site for active instrumented calibration and testing. The fairly constant and predictable weather and water conditions of Seneca Lake also make it a choice testing site. It is known for its testing and evaluation of major projects that require relatively deep water with fixed underwater geometry and capabilities for heavy load-handling and electrical power.

Located about a mile and a half from the Dresden shore, the facility consists of two barges – the Systems Measurement Platform and the Remote Calibration Platform – that are the primary measurement and calibration resources. Two equipment-handling barges and numerous transport boats serve the facility, and there are machining and fabrication capabilities on the site to repair or manufacture the equipment and gear being tested.

The facility has been used by the Department of Defense, Department of the Navy, universities, foreign governments, state and local agencies, and private industry. And it has been a part of the Dresden landscape and lakeshore for more than 60 years.

It all began in November 1961, when the original barge – a converted oil tanker measuring 165 feet long and 36 feet long – arrived in Seneca Lake from Miami, via the inland waterway, Hudson River, and Barge Canal. During the heyday of the Cold War, as America furthered its research and development of anti-submarine warfare, the barge was purposed to test advanced sonar equipment designed to detect underwater craft. The barge was a key unit in establishing an anti-submarine acoustics research facility, headed by General Dynamics/Electronics.

The company leased a site at Dresden that provided 180 feet of lakefront – with construction of docking and service facilities to begin soon, according to an October 1961 newspaper article – along with a county road serving the property that would allow access to the facility throughout the year. Seneca Lake was chosen because its 600-foot depth makes it one of the deepest lakes in the country and – with the exception of the Great Lakes – the deepest lake with direct access to the Atlantic Ocean. It also has temperature gradients similar to those in the Atlantic Ocean, meaning sonar tests could be correlated to ocean conditions. The waves on the lake aren’t high enough to interfere with barge operations, and since the lake rarely freezes tests can be conducted throughout the year.

The original barge was equipped with a diesel-driven, 200-kilowatt generator to supply electric power to its electronic equipment, a capacity that was later increased to 400 kilowatts. The barge’s hulls had several ballast tanks, with water pumped out of or into the tanks to raise or lower the height of the deck above water.

Initially, the barge was designed to test then-recently-developed transducers weighing as much as 35 tons. These transducers convert electrical energy into acoustic energy, sending sound signals through the water that bounce off an intended target with an echo that can be recorded and analyzed. For test operations, the barge was to be manned by three engineers working under the direction of a manager.

In 1965, the Navy began leasing the Dresden Marina – with 4.5 acres of land and 900 feet of lakefront – for $20,000 per year with an option to buy the marina for $125,000. As a result of this move, owners of boats and crafts docked at the marina were forced to remove them from the marina and find new facilities to store them. Those with mobile homes located on the hill above the docks also had to vacate the premises. Another result was the Navy expanding its research facilities on Seneca Lake through an investment of $500,000. The improvements included completely fencing in the installation since much of its research work dealing with sound and sonar equipment is classified.

An undated newspaper article – handwritten with “1967,” though the exact date is unclear – indicates the Navy bought the marina a couple of years later for $166,000 and took it over outright. That year, Albert Gatthardt, of the Washington Naval Research Center, spoke before a jointing meeting of the Seneca Falls and Waterloo Rotary Clubs and detailed the history of the Naval Research Laboratory and its recent developments and improvements.

Alternately known as the Seneca Underwater Test and Evaluation Center, the facility was profiled in a July 1968 newspaper article on the occasion of the barge’s conversion from diesel power generated aboard to being powered by an electrical cable from the shore. The change permitted the barge – referred to in the article as DARIUS, though it is unclear what that stands for – to test the largest underwater sonar sound sources.

The following year, the Navy announced a $2.2 million expansion of the research facility on Seneca Lake, making it “the newest, largest, and best underwater research center in the country.” Plans called for using the existing barges plus a new systems measurement platform measuring 195 feet long, 120 feet wide, and 9 and a half feet deep, with a crane capable of lifting 200 tons. The expansion would continue the Navy’s research into sound transmission, travel, and reception underwater, light transmission and reception, underwater radio communications, development of new oceanographic tools and techniques, and underwater tests in the field physics.

As of February 1969, the facility employed eight permanent employees – a number expanded by 10 or 20 visiting technicians, engineers, and scientists. With the expansion anticipated to finish in the summer of 1970, plans called for 15 permanent employees with a capacity for 40 people visiting and working on the site.

By September 1970, work on the expansion had fallen behind but was mostly complete, and the facility continued testing equipment on Seneca Lake. More than 50 years later, the Navy still has a presence in the Finger Lakes, and it is one you can see from the road or the shore.

For the past few days @darthmelyanna has been sharing details about the infighting and incompetence behind the founding of the organization we now know today as USAG and boy does it make me want to know what other countries officials who had to deal with these clowns were saying.

Some fun facts:

The Amateur Athletic Union or AAU originally controlled gymnastics in the United States. As well as basketball, track, and a number of other sports. They controlled if an American athlete could compete in another country and if a foreign athlete could compete in the US. Among the traits of the AAU was that the bylaws of the organization had been written so the man in charge couldn't be fired or replaced and no one but that one individual was qualified to hold the job. Dictator for life.

And he ... didn't really respond to his mail either from US coaches/athletes or from foreign officials. When officials in New Zealand sent a request that some American gymnasts tour New Zealand 8 months went by before they had to write an American coach to find out if they were going to get an answer.

One of the things the AAU had done... or rather not done... was produce an english translation of the code of points. Americans were literally competing at Olympic events in a sport where they didn't have a rule book in their own language.

When they eventually did produce a translation the American gymnastics equipment manufacturer Nissen also produced a translation of the FIG code of points.

They didn't agree.

But that almost didn't matter because within the United States the different regions had their own individual judging standards. The Americans couldn't decide what scores should be between themselves. And because FIG was dealing with the AAU as the national governing body those coaches who broke off to form the USGF weren't getting FIG judges training.

So with all of this the Americans show up to the 1964 Olympic Games (presumably with their two different codes of points and several different judging standards) and decide that the US had been terribly underscored and that they were really the 3rd best team in the world even though they placed 9th. And are very mad at the AAU for not starting a diplomatic incident because the Americans didn't receive higher scores.

And that's all before we get into how much USGF really... really... loved apartheid South Africa.

I really hope she writes about this because I'm not covering even half the craziness.

Industry trend｜Another global tire giant announces the introduction of RFID

Recently, Giti Tire, a leading global tire manufacturer, announced a major innovation - the introduction of RFID technology in its European truck and bus (TBR) tire portfolio. Giti Tire has achieved accurate monitoring of the entire life cycle of tires by embedding RFID chips into the sidewalls of new products. This digital technology not only allows identification at the level of individual tires, but also ensures that all stakeholders and users can easily read relevant information throughout the life cycle of each tire. This information covers all aspects of tire manufacturing, logistics, original equipment manufacturers, distributors and wholesalers, fleet management, quality assurance, retreading and scrapping, providing strong data support for the full management of tires.

As a world-renowned tire brand, Giti Tire has multiple sales subsidiaries or offices around the world. Its products are sold in more than 100 countries around the world and have been recognized by domestic and foreign automobile manufacturers. Giti Tire has 5 major R&D and technology centers around the world, with more than 600 professional R&D personnel, and has reached close cooperation with many international research institutions and universities. These R&D forces provide solid technical support for Giti Tire's digital innovation. At the same time, Giti Tire is also vigorously building a retail service network around the world. The number of retail service terminals has exceeded 65,000, covering five continents, bringing convenient and professional tire solutions to car owners. According to the 2024 Global Tire Brand Value Ranking released by Brand Finance, a well-known British consulting company, Giti Tire's sales volume ranks ninth in the world. At the same time, Giti Tire is also the fastest growing tire brand in the world in 2024, with a growth rate of 19%.

The application of digital technology has not only improved Giti Tire's management efficiency and service quality, but also brought far-reaching impacts to the entire tire industry. Through the Tire Information Service (TIS) system, Giti Tire is able to organize and share tire-related data to create new services for safer and more sustainable mobile journeys. This system was created by the Global Data Service for Tires and Automotive Parts (GDSO), a non-profit association dedicated to the standardization, simplification and sharing of tire-related data.

The executive body and members of GDSO are composed of 12 manufacturers, who jointly advocate the definition and outline of global standards for tire data and global technical solutions for retrieving data from participating companies. As a member of GDSO, Giti Tire actively participates in open communication, shares the required tire information, and contributes to the digitalization of the tire industry.

The first batch of tires with RFID tags on the market include two new Combi Road products, Giti GSR237EVO and Giti GDR675EVO, which demonstrates Giti Tire's outstanding strength in technological innovation. In the future, Giti Tire will continue to launch more tire products carrying RFID chips to meet the needs of different customers.

Antonio Palummo, senior engineer of TBR Europe at Giti Tire, said: "Digitalization is a catalyst for the future development of the tire industry. The ability to track and share information is key to ensuring circularity and compliance with automation and sustainable environments." Through the GDSO platform, Giti Tire will work with other major tire manufacturers to promote the standardization and sharing of tire data to improve the way tire specifications are communicated between manufacturers and customers, improve accuracy, reduce the time required for tracking and reporting, and minimize the possibility of human error.

This would be a great addition to a metal car/toy collection.HISTORY:“The Hubley Manufacturing Company of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, one of the oldest and largest makers of toys in the United States, was founded in 1894 by John E. Hubley to manufacture equipment and accessories for electric trains. Financial difficulties forced Mr. Hubley to sell the entire stock in 1909. At this time the electric train business was discontinued and the cast iron toy business started. Among the first toys produced were a coal range, circus wagons and mechanical banks, all collector’s items today.Included in the 68,000 square feet of floor space in the Hubley plant were a die-cast room, warehouse, tool room, paint room and all the special assembly machinery. Besides making their cast iron toys, the company made castings for other companies in Lancaster which were without foundry equipment.By 1940 increased freight costs and foreign competition forced the company to look for other materials. During World War II scarcity of metal forced the company out of the toy business and into war-related items. After the Korean conflict ended and regulations on metal were suspended, cast iron toy production resumed.Following common manufacturing methods of the time, Hubley toys of the 1890s, and for a time thereafter, were cast in sand molds in two parts which were then riveted together to form the toy. All toys were designed by John Hubley, who had remained deeply interested in children’s playthings since the time he first made his own children’s wooden toys.In 1936 Hubley started casting in multiple cavity steel dies. Die castings were broken off, trimmed, and tumbled in revolving cylindrical machines. They were then taken to the paint department where they were given baked enamel or lacquer, air-dried paint finishes in various colors. At one time, a dozen girls were employed in the paint department. Portions of the earlier toys were hand painted and some were dipped.Each different toy was started on its own moving assembly line where parts were added, details sprayed on, oiling and inspection took place and the assembly completed. For example, a fire engine took shape on one line. It started as a red chassis. The rubber-tired wheels were added, followed by the spraying on of the radiator, bumpers and headlights. The driver was added, and the ladder, fire axes and other accessories followed. Near the end of the line, the toy was individually boxed and packed in a corrugated container. In 1949, due to union disputes, the foundry was closed. This was a difficult decision for the firm, since Hubley was one of the first companies to devote their entire factory to die casting.The Hubley Company maintained a designing department where ideas were conceived and developed for model forms. Design engineers kept up-to-date on the models and style changes by attending automobile shows and studying advertisements. Their designs changed when the larger counterparts changed. After items were conceived and models developed, the toys were analyzed for pricing. The more play features a model had, the more expensive it was.

The Make in India Campaign: A Game-Changer for India’s Economic Future

What does it take to transform a nation into a global manufacturing hub? The “Make in India campaign” seeks to answer that question by positioning India as a leader in the global economy. Launched by the Government of India in 2014, this initiative has evolved into a strategic mission aimed at fostering innovation, boosting skill development, and enhancing job creation in the country. With its focus on 25 key sectors, from automobiles to biotechnology, the Make in India campaign strives to turn the nation into a manufacturing powerhouse.

As global industries look for alternatives to traditional manufacturing giants, India presents itself as a promising contender, thanks to this robust initiative. However, to fully understand the potential impact of the Make in India campaign, we need to explore its objectives, achievements, and challenges in detail. Let’s dive into how this initiative is reshaping the nation’s economic landscape and why it holds immense significance for India’s future.

The Origins of the Make in India Campaign

The campaign was introduced on September 25, 2014, by Prime Minister Narendra Modi with a vision to make India a global manufacturing destination. The campaign aimed to increase the share of the manufacturing sector in India’s GDP to 25% by 2025. By encouraging both domestic and international companies to manufacture their products within India, the government sought to boost economic growth, attract foreign direct investment (FDI), and generate employment opportunities for millions of citizens.

Key Objectives of the Make in India Campaign

The Make in India campaign rests on four primary objectives:

Facilitate Investment: The campaign aims to make India an attractive destination for global manufacturers by improving infrastructure, streamlining regulations, and promoting a pro-business environment. Policies have been created to ease the process of starting and conducting business in India, thereby attracting foreign and domestic investments.

Foster Innovation: A core pillar of the campaign is encouraging innovation and research. This includes the development of new technologies, products, and services, which can give India a competitive edge in the global market.

Enhance Skill Development: With the aim to create a skilled workforce that can meet the demands of global manufacturers, the Make in India campaign aligns closely with other government initiatives such as Skill India. The focus is on upgrading the skills of the Indian workforce to ensure they are equipped for modern manufacturing jobs.

Protect Intellectual Property: The campaign emphasizes the need for robust intellectual property rights (IPR) to protect innovations and inventions. This helps to foster an environment where companies feel secure investing in research and development.

https://businessviewpointmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/2.1-Enhance-Skill-Development_-Source-brookings.edu_.jpg

Sectors of Focus: The Backbone of the Campaign

To maximize its impact, the Make in India campaign has focused on 25 key sectors, including automobiles, aviation, chemicals, IT and BPM (business process management), pharmaceuticals, and textiles. These sectors were chosen based on their growth potential and their capacity to attract investment and create jobs.

Automobiles: India is already one of the largest automobile markets in the world. The campaign aims to make it a global hub for manufacturing automobiles, from luxury cars to affordable electric vehicles.

Textiles and Garments: India has a rich tradition in textiles, and the campaign seeks to capitalize on this heritage to make India a leader in apparel manufacturing.

Pharmaceuticals: India is already known as the “pharmacy of the world.” The campaign aims to enhance the country’s role as a major producer of generic drugs, further boosting exports.

The Impact of Make in India on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)

One of the most significant achievements of the Make in India campaign has been its ability to attract foreign direct investment (FDI). Between 2014 and 2020, India saw a surge in FDI inflows, making it one of the top destinations for foreign investment globally. The government simplified the FDI process and allowed 100% FDI in many sectors, including railways, defense, and e-commerce.

The impact of these reforms was felt across various industries, with global giants like Apple, Samsung, and Foxconn setting up manufacturing units in India. The electronics and IT sectors, in particular, witnessed significant growth, leading to increased exports and job creation. The Make in India campaign has played a pivotal role in making the country an attractive destination for multinational companies looking to diversify their supply chains.

Employment Generation: A Crucial Outcome

The success of the campaign lies not only in attracting investment but also in creating millions of jobs for India’s youth. With a growing workforce and a large pool of engineers, technicians, and skilled laborers, India has become an ideal location for global manufacturers.

In sectors like electronics, textiles, and automobile manufacturing, the campaign has already created a significant number of jobs. Additionally, the focus on skill development through initiatives like Skill India has helped bridge the gap between industry requirements and the available talent pool.

Challenges Faced by the Make in India Campaign

Infrastructure: Despite improvements, India’s infrastructure continues to lag behind other global manufacturing hubs. Issues such as inadequate power supply, poor transportation networks, and outdated logistics systems can hinder the success of the Make in India campaign.

Regulatory Hurdles: Although the government has taken steps to streamline regulations, businesses still face challenges when it comes to bureaucratic red tape and lengthy approval processes. More needs to be done to ensure that the regulatory environment is conducive to business growth.

Global Competition: Countries like China, Vietnam, and Bangladesh offer stiff competition in terms of lower labor costs and better infrastructure. India needs to continue working on making its manufacturing ecosystem more efficient and cost-effective to remain competitive in the global market.

Environmental Concerns: As the campaign encourages industrialization, there are growing concerns about its environmental impact. Sustainable manufacturing practices need to be emphasized to ensure that India’s growth does not come at the cost of environmental degradation.

Government Initiatives to Boost the Make in India Campaign

To overcome these challenges, the government has launched several complementary initiatives to strengthen the Make in India campaign:

Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme: Launched in 2020, the PLI scheme provides financial incentives to companies engaged in manufacturing in key sectors. The scheme has been particularly successful in attracting investments in electronics, pharmaceuticals, and automobile manufacturing.

Atmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliant India): Announced in 2020, this initiative aims to reduce India’s dependence on imports and boost domestic manufacturing. The Atmanirbhar Bharat campaign complements the campaign by promoting local industries and encouraging self-reliance in key sectors.

The Future of the Make in India Campaign

As India continues its journey toward becoming a global manufacturing hub, the future of the campaign looks promising. The government’s efforts to attract investment, boost innovation, and create jobs are already yielding positive results. However, to fully realize its potential, the campaign will need to address the challenges related to infrastructure, regulatory frameworks, and sustainability.

India’s demographic dividend, combined with its strategic location and growing consumer market, makes it a strong contender in the global manufacturing race. The campaign, with its focus on building a robust manufacturing ecosystem, is well-positioned to propel the country into the next phase of economic growth.

Conclusion

The Make in India campaign has undoubtedly become a cornerstone of India’s economic transformation. With its focus on innovation, investment, and job creation, it is helping to build a more resilient and competitive economy. However, for the campaign to achieve its full potential, ongoing efforts to improve infrastructure, streamline regulations, and adopt sustainable practices will be critical. As global manufacturers look for new markets and opportunities, the Make in India campaign is poised to play a vital role in shaping India’s future as a global manufacturing powerhouse.

What Causes a Subaru Sambar Timing Belt to Wear Prematurely?

The Subaru Sambar is a compact kei truck that has gained popularity due to its versatility, reliability, and practicality. Like any other internal combustion engine, it relies heavily on its timing belt to function smoothly. The timing belt is responsible for synchronizing the rotation of the crankshaft and camshaft, ensuring that the engine’s valves open and close at the correct intervals. However, the timing belt is also a wear-and-tear component, and it can sometimes wear out prematurely. When a timing belt wears out too quickly, it can cause significant engine damage if not addressed. Understanding the factors that contribute to the premature wear of a Subaru Sambar’s timing belt is crucial for preventing costly repairs and maintaining the vehicle's long-term performance.

1. Poor Installation or Tensioning

One of the most common causes of premature timing belt wear is improper installation or tensioning. The timing belt needs to be installed with the right tension. If it's too loose, it can skip teeth on the gears, causing improper engine timing. On the other hand, if the belt is too tight, it can put excessive strain on the belt itself and other components like the pulleys and water pump.

Both over-tensioning and under-tensioning the timing belt can lead to increased friction, which accelerates wear. Additionally, incorrect installation can result in the belt not being aligned properly with the gears and pulleys, causing uneven wear over time.

Solution: It’s essential to ensure that the timing belt is installed by a professional mechanic with experience working on Subaru Sambar models. Proper tensioning tools should be used to achieve the correct belt tightness according to the manufacturer’s specifications.

2. Contaminants: Oil and Coolant Leaks

Contaminants such as oil or coolant leaking onto the timing belt are another significant factor contributing to premature wear. The timing belt is made of rubber and reinforced fibers, which can degrade when exposed to foreign substances. Oil leaks, for instance, can cause the belt to soften, lose its integrity, and eventually fail.

Coolant leaks are equally damaging. Coolant can cause the belt to swell, leading to poor alignment and excessive friction as the belt interacts with the pulleys. Leaks can originate from failing gaskets, seals, or the water pump, all of which can allow oil or coolant to come into contact with the belt.

Solution: Regular engine inspections are crucial to detect and repair oil or coolant leaks before they cause significant damage. Replacing worn gaskets and seals can prevent leaks, thereby protecting the timing belt from contamination.

3. Poor Quality Timing Belt or Components

Not all timing belts are created equal. Some aftermarket belts may be made from inferior materials or lack the necessary reinforcements to withstand the rigors of an engine's operation. Using a low-quality timing belt can lead to early failure due to poor resistance to heat, stretching, and wear.

The quality of related components, such as the tensioners, pulleys, and water pump, also plays a critical role in the overall longevity of the timing belt. If these components fail or are not functioning correctly, they can cause the belt to wear out prematurely.

Solution: When replacing the timing belt, it’s best to invest in high-quality components. Opt for a Subaru Sambar timing belt kit that includes all necessary parts made to OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) specifications or better. This ensures that the belt and all associated components are designed to last and function together seamlessly.

4. Driving Conditions and Habits

The driving conditions a Subaru Sambar is subjected to can also affect how long the timing belt lasts. Frequent stop-and-go driving, towing heavy loads, or driving in extreme temperatures can put additional stress on the engine, which in turn affects the timing belt.

High-speed driving or aggressive acceleration can cause the timing belt to experience more stress than it would under normal driving conditions. Over time, this increased strain can lead to faster wear.

Solution: Adapting to smoother driving habits and reducing aggressive driving behaviors can help extend the life of the timing belt. Additionally, regular maintenance is necessary if the vehicle is frequently used in harsh conditions or for towing, as these factors will necessitate more frequent timing belt inspections and replacements.

5. Environmental Factors

Environmental factors such as extreme heat or cold can also contribute to the premature wear of a timing belt. High temperatures can cause the rubber material in the belt to dry out and crack, while very cold temperatures can make the belt brittle, increasing the likelihood of a breakage.

In areas with high humidity or exposure to saltwater, such as coastal regions, rust and corrosion can form on the pulleys and other metal components. Rusty or corroded pulleys can lead to uneven belt wear as the timing belt rubs against the rough, uneven surfaces.

Solution: If your Subaru Sambar operates in extreme weather conditions or humid areas, regular inspections of the timing belt and pulleys are essential. If signs of rust or corrosion are found on any of the metal components, they should be replaced to avoid damaging the timing belt.

6. Lack of Maintenance and Ignoring Replacement Intervals

Every timing belt has a specific lifespan, usually measured in miles or years, which is recommended by the vehicle's manufacturer. Ignoring these replacement intervals or failing to perform regular maintenance can lead to the belt wearing out before its expected lifespan.

Over time, the material of the timing belt degrades, regardless of how well the vehicle is driven or maintained. If the belt is not replaced when recommended, it can fail unexpectedly, causing severe damage to the engine.

Solution: Follow the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule for the timing belt replacement. In the case of the Subaru Sambar, the timing belt typically needs to be replaced every 60,000 to 100,000 miles, depending on the model and driving conditions. Regular inspections can help identify signs of wear before the belt fails completely.

7. Damaged or Worn-Out Pulleys

The pulleys that guide and support the timing belt are critical to its longevity. If the pulleys become worn out or damaged, they can cause the belt to wear unevenly or slip. Worn bearings in the pulleys can also lead to increased friction, which accelerates belt wear.

Pulleys can develop wear patterns over time, especially if the timing belt has been used for a long period. This wear can be exacerbated if the pulleys are not replaced during a timing belt change, leading to premature belt failure.

Solution: When replacing the timing belt, it's important to inspect and replace worn or damaged pulleys and tensioners. Ensuring these components are in good condition will prevent uneven wear on the new belt and help it last as long as intended.

Conclusion

Premature wear of the timing belt in a Subaru Sambar can be caused by a variety of factors, including improper installation, contamination, poor-quality components, and driving conditions. To avoid premature wear, it’s essential to invest in high-quality parts, follow proper maintenance schedules, and address any potential leaks or issues early on. By taking these precautions, you can ensure that your Subaru Sambar's engine continues to run smoothly for years to come.

4 Essential Tips for Attending the Canton Fair

Being properly prepared beforehand will make the whole experience much more pleasant. Here are some essential tips to help you make the most of your visit:

Tip 1: Before You Book Your Trip

Which phase will the products you are interested in fall under? Make sure you book your trip at the right time.

Research Exhibitors-Identify Key Exhibitors: Use the fair’s website to find exhibitors that match your interests. Create a list of booths you want to visit and note their locations.

Are you going to need a guide and translator? Some of the exhibitors will speak English but a translator may be needed at times. There is also a big difference between Chinese culture and Western culture. It will pay you to learn what some of these differences are before you leave so you get the most out of the experience.

It’s a good idea to stay at least three to four days to get the most out of your trip – there is too much to see in even one or two days.

Pre-register online before you leave to make it easier when you get there.

WeChat is an extremely popular way to communicate in China due to restrictions on many forms of social media. Download the WeChat app and start getting to know it’s features.

Tip 2: When You Pack

You will need to pack comfortable clothes and shoes. Expect a lot of walking; comfortable footwear is a must. Consider the weather and the business setting.

Pack a couple of notebooks and also work out some generic questions you will ask prospective suppliers like what the minimum order quantities are, customizability, etc.

Make sure that you have either a bag on wheels or a backpack to take with you to the fair. You will receive a number of business cards, pamphlets, etc. throughout the day and these get heavy to carry after a while.

Have plenty of business cards made to take with you – this helps to convince exhibitors that you are a serious business person and many will want a business card if you ask for a brochure.

Tip 3: Know How to Get to and From the Fair

There are a lot of options when it comes to getting to and from the fair.

The cheapest and easiest is usually to take the hotel shuttle. Just make sure that you know what times they arrive and leave because they are very strict about keeping to schedule.

The metro system will take you just about anywhere you want to go but it is easy to get yourself lost. Learn the route you need to take and what stations you must get off at the upfront. Download a Baidu Map APP or Gaode Map App, just enter your destination, and the App will show you the metro route very clearly.

Taxis are relatively inexpensive but there have been reports of taxi drivers being less than scrupulous with tourists. This won’t always be the case but it pays to be on your guard.

Ride-hailing. DiDi is similar to Uber. In China, DiDi is the dominant ride-hailing platform and offers a variety of services tailored to local needs.

Tip 4: At the Canton Fair

Get too involved in conversations with the exhibitors you are interested. This is where your notebooks come in handy. Looking up information about the companies that you were interested in and do some more in-depth reading on the products you were interested in so that you can whittle down the list of people to speak to.

Network Effectively-Engage with exhibitors and fellow attendees. Look for scheduled networking events to meet other professionals.

The Role of Motor Rewinding in Uganda's Growing Industrial Sector

Uganda’s industrial sector is experiencing significant growth, fueled by advancements in technologies, infrastructure development, and increasing foreign investments. As industries expand, so does the demand for efficient and reliable machinery. One of the critical aspects that ensures the longevity and efficiency of industrial machinery is motor rewinding. At the forefront of providing these essential services, Mak General Services is recognized for offering the best motor rewinding in Uganda.
