The PRC’s Compute Push Goes Global
Executive Summary: The People’s Republic of China (PRC) is pushing its domestic computing ecosystem overseas despite U.S. export controls constraining access to high-end AI chips. Chinese firms have laid the groundwork for physical deployments of domestic hardware while pursuing “Token going global” (Token 出海), in which compute remains in the PRC while serving overseas clients. China’s compute crunch is uneven.

Drills and Experts Suggest Beijing Favors Blockade on Longer Timeline
Executive Summary: The People’s Liberation Army increasingly emphasizes blockade scenarios in its exercises and drills, signaling a strategic shift in Beijing’s approach to a military contingency in the Taiwan Strait. Policy elites and current and former military officials corroborate this shift but largely project any military action as unlikely before 2027, citing economic challenges and geopolitical risks.

Opinion: Marry young
For ages, people have searched for ways to make their lives more fulfilling —the foremost method: relationships. Nowadays, relationships take all kinds of lengths, forms and labels. Scariest label of them all? Marriage. People seem to greatly desire but also fear its gifts and burdens. But what if the secret to a richer, more resilient life together isn’t waiting until you’re fully established, but daring to grow side by side from the start?
Opinion: Pages of perfection
What’s the last book you read? Was it “Harry Potter” by J.K. Rowling? Maybe a Colleen Hoover romance or a Stephen King thriller? Or perhaps you’re immersed in the fantasy worlds of Sarah J. Maas? While these popular authors have undeniable appeal, there’s something missing in today’s literary landscape that’s all too often overlooked: . But why do these works seem to gather dust on the shelves? Truth be told, people don’t seem to see the value of classic books. And it’s tragic.
Opinion: Humanity’s futile obsession with predicting the future
Humanity was convinced for millennia that all swans were white. But with the sudden discovery of a single and rather unremarkable black swan, everything was turned upside down in an instant. Just as we firmly believed all swans were white, we also tend to firmly believe we can predict the future — even though there will always be that unforeseen black swan. Just take a look at history.
Opinion: The death of pop
What country song was at Billboard’s number one for six straight weeks? Who wrote it? Even two years ago, you would not have guessed that Post Malone, a hip-hop and trap superstar, would write a country song and take number one on Billboard for almost two whole months. But he did. The fact of the matter is this: change or die. OK, this may be a heavily exaggerated version of adapt or fall behind, but nevertheless, it’s absolutely true, especially in the modern music industry.
Opinion: Get on board with board games
In our age of digital entertainment, board games might seem outdated. But there’s something about playing games with cards and pieces that can’t be replaced by screens and buttons. Time and time again, my first year of college has been littered with the phrase: “What should we do?” Whether I’m with people I’ve known for years or people I’ve just met, it can feel impossible to come up with something engaging and entertaining to do. Then, one day, I was introduced to the game One Night Werewolf.
Taiwan’s Aging Society Poses a National Security Threat
Next year Taiwan is projected to enter a rare club: that of the super-aged societies. The island nation, along with Japan, Germany, Portugal, Greece, France, and Italy, will have people over 65 years of age comprise more than 20 percent of its population. This is compounded by the fact that Taiwan has seen three straight years of net population decline.

Xi Jinping’s Ideologization of the Chinese Academy
Under Xi Jinping, Beijing has sought to strengthen ideological and political education in universities throughout China. More robust emphasis on ideology in Chinese universities has come hand-in-hand with the development of a higher education system characterized by increasing insularity, exemplified by turns away from global rankings, less emphasis on English-language course instruction, and new regulations that hamper international research collaboration.
There Is No Consensus on American Decline in Beijing - Tribune Content Agency
Western writing on China is rife with commentary and analysis suggesting that there is an established consensus among Chinese policy elites and academics that the United States is in a state of perpetual decline. This analysis accurately diagnoses increasing confidence in China about Beijing’s material capabilities and technological prowess, and often passes for conventional wisdom.

Western writing on China is rife with commentary and analysis suggesting that there is an established consensus among Chinese policy elites and academics that the United States is in a state of perpetual decline.
How US-Japan-S Korea can deter China on Taiwan

Political Drivers of China’s Private Sector Demise
Beijing has recently introduced a blitzkrieg of regulatory measures targeting industries ranging from video games and financial technology to food delivery and education (Tuzhixi, July 27, 2021). The introduction of these regulatory measures has had profound implications on China’s economic trajectory. China’s tech giants have lost more than a $1 trillion in value — equivalent to the entire economy of the Netherlands — since measures were first imposed (Reuters, June 16, 2023).

Decapitation strike scenarios and the prospects of an airborne invasion are widely discussed by analysts, scholars, and policy practitioners in both the US and Taiwan.

Asia Defense | Security | East Asia As Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia move to deepen relations with Taiwan, they also have a lot to offer in terms of civil defense cooperation. In recent years the Baltic states — Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia — have moved to demonstrate solidarity with Taiwan as China ramps up military coercion in the Taiwan Strait. While such solidarity has largely been symbolic or economic in nature, there are a number of lessons Baltic states can provide Taiwan in defense.
