Csbuzz CS Mobility Monthly Newsletter-China Monthly CS Mobility World War II CSbuzz ISE0017I2015.10-12 CS Mobility Monthly Newsletter-China China V-Day Parade – 3rd September 2015 This year China’s Victory Day Parade will be held on September 3rd, 2015, instead of the usual parade on National Day (October 1st). There are separate parades in Beijing and Guangzhou, but Beijing will be the major part. This is the first parade after Xi Jinping succeeded to General Secretary of the Communist Party of China and Paramount leader in November 2012. China joined the 2015 Moscow Victory Day Parade, and Russia will join China’s in return. China announced that there will be a lot of new weapons shown on the parade including J-20 and J-15 jet fighters, DF-41 ICBM, type 99 Main Battle Tank. Nearby countries such as Russia, Mongolia and South Korea will attend the parade. The President of Republic Of Korea, Park Geun-hye will attend the parade followed by the Re-opening Ceremony of the Former site for the ROK Temporary Government located in Shanghai, China which was first opened during World War II. Single’s Day Festival – 11th November 2015 Singles’ Day Festival on November 11th (11/11) is a popular celebration for young Chinese people who are single. The date is chosen for the connection between singles and the number ‘1’. On this day, young singles organize parties and Karaoke to meet new friends or try their fortunes. It has become the largest online shopping day in the world, with sales in Alibaba’s sites, Tmall and Taobao at US$5.8 billion in 2013 and US$9.3 billion in 2014. Singles’ Day or Bachelors’ Day originated from Nanjing University in 1993. These college students have since graduated, and carried the university tradition into society. Singles’ Day has been largely popularized in the internet era and is now observed in several regions outside China as well. The holiday was initially only celebrated by young men, hence the name, “Bachelors’ Day,” but is now widely celebrated by both genders. For breakfast on Singles’ Day, singles often eat four Youtiao (deep-fried dough sticks) representing the four “ones” in “11.11” and one Baozi (steamed stuffed bun) representing the middle dot. Although this date is meant to celebrate singlehood, the desire to find a spouse or mate is often expressed by young Chinese on this date, and other love-related issues are discussed by the Chinese media. In addition to meaning ‘single,’ the four ‘ones’ of the date can also mean ‘only one’ as in ‘the only one for me.’ Some people will use this date and this meaning to tell their special someone that they are the only ‘one’ in their heart, and 2011 (11.11.11) saw an above-average number of marital celebrations in Hong Kong and Beijing. As more people join in the celebration of this holiday, it has become a great opportunity for companies targeting younger consumers, including restaurants, Karaoke, and online shopping malls. CONSIDER IT SETTLED Diving in the Philippines - By Petra Zienteck (Part 1) Living in China has one big benefit for us divers – the greatest dive sites are only a few hours flight away! During our time in Beijing we travelled to the Philippines for great dives sites – which we continued when we came to live in Shenzhen, which makes the travel even easier. As it’s only a 2.5 hour flight from Hong Kong to Cebu, my husband and I began the joyful habit of weekend dives “just around the corner”! We get to discover dive sites in the Philippines and to explore the little islands, enjoying the beauty above and below the water and feeling welcomed by the friendliest, warmhearted people. This made us want to come back over and over again. In 2006 we made our first trip to the Philippines, and ended up in Puerto Galera, a German dive resort with limitless diving throughout the week, exploring the underwater wrecks, coral gardens and walls. We also took day trips to the mountains and glistering waterfalls which had us falling in love with this country. In 2007 we visited Boracay. Then it was a beautiful, little-known island with breathtaking beaches. Nowadays it has become more crowded, but the dive sites are awesome. We did the Advanced Open Water training there, including current dives, orientation dives, night dives and wreck dives. The most exciting dive was the one at Yapak Reef: a blue water dive into crystal clear, deep blue water down to 40 meters. We encountered a whole new world down there: Out of the blue, suddenly a beautiful coral garden on the edge of a huge wall spread out in front of us, the wall underneath us falling down hundreds of meters into the deep ocean. From that moment, I was captured by the fascinating underwater world that no one would expect from just watching the waves above. When we moved to Shenzhen years later, we found fellow addicts within my husband’s work group and started the project “Weekend Divers” in 2012. We would take the 1.30 a.m. flight from Hong Kong to Cebu and arrive in the early morning hours, taking a taxi/van and boat to the dive site, catching as much sleep as possible during the journey and start our dive after a good breakfast at the resort. This became our dive weekend routine for at least four weekends last year. The mandatory day of rest before the return flight allowed us to explore the world above the sea, each time discovering beautiful places and relaxed routine of the day. Our first dive-weekend took us to a little island called Malapasqua: Beautiful white beaches, turquoise waters, the resort right on the beach, and only a few other people with us. The real treasure of the island lay underneath: With an early morning dive (meeting at 4am!) we were able to dive with the famous thresher sharks of that area. They were returning from their early morning hunt from the depths of the sea to the shallower waters of the cleaning station. We watched as the smaller fish cleaned the noble hunters. We were in awe when the smoothly moving hunters circled us, elegantly waving their amazing long dorsal fins. More about our dive weekends next time… **Before making any travel arrangements, it is advisable to check with your Embassy for Travel Advisories. CONSIDER IT SETTLED Cultural pieces This first part in our look at Cantonese opera is an excerpt from the volunteering association, Shenzhen Asian Culture Society’s publication, co-written by Albert So, Founder, Fong Yuen Academy of Chinese Classics & Derek Walters, Fellow, Royal Asiatic Society; Author and Composer. If you would like a soft copy of the full article, please email Caroline at caroline.rugaba@cs-,mobility.com Cantonese Opera The particular Chinese form of performance involving music and acting, known as ‘ju’ is commonly translated as ‘Chinese opera.’ The Chinese expression ‘Pear Garden’ refers to the whole concept of Chinese opera and the various professions and skills involved in it. Chinese opera has several distinctive types, usually depending on the region from where they originate. Perhaps the best known type is Beijing Opera (or Jingju in short), although this is still officially referred to as Peking Opera, Peking being the earlier Romaniza- tion for Beijing. Many other styles of Chinese Opera have been nationally recognized as examples of an ‘intangible cultural heritage’. One such is Zaju (‘mixed’ opera’) from Northern China, a form popular during the Yuan Dynasty (ca. 1280 AD) but recorded centuries earlier. Another style is Kunqu 崑 崑 (Songs from the Kun mountain) from Kunshan close to the Suzhou region and popular during the Ming Dynasty (ca. 1400). It is one of the oldest types of Chinese opera still performed today. Huju, 崑 崑 from the Shanghai region (Hu be- ing an alternative name for Shanghai) flourished during the Qing dynasty (ca. 1750). Then there is of course Cantonese Opera, which since 2009 has been additionally recognized as ‘an intangible heritage of culture and humanity’ by the United Nations. Yueju [ 崑 崑 ] Cantonese opera, is popular not only in the southern regions of China, such as Guangdong, Guangxi, Hong Kong, and Macau, but also further afield in south-eastern Asia, particularly Singapore and Malaysia. Today, in cities through- out the world which have a significant Cantonese population, for example Vancouver B.C., Toronto, San Francisco, and Lon- don, there is a growing interest in Cantonese opera. Contrary to a popular assumption that Cantonese opera is merely a succession of songs, the reality is that the art form encompasses literature, music, acting, singing, drama, cos- tume, martial arts, and acrobatics. Of course, there are occa- sional ‘concert performances’ which consist only of the musi- cal content, but essentially, the nature of Cantonese opera is the relation of historical tales through various kinds of stage performance while at the same time expounding the philoso- phy, traditions and culture of ancient China. In Hong Kong, the narratives of Cantonese operas are set in historical times, such as the Song or Ming Dynasties. In Guangzhou there has been a trend towards portraying modern events in contemporary settings - virtually stage dramas which are sung instead of being spoken – but these have not proved to be popular in Hong Kong. There are generally two types of plays of Cantonese opera, namely Mun (Putonghua Wen) and Mo (Wu) [. Here, “Mun” refers to actors playing in an intellectual, polite or cultured manner while “Mo” refers to those playing in a martial way, holding swords, riding on horses and fighting against enemies.

  • Chinese Lantern Festival February 21St 2008 the Lantern Festival Or
    Chinese Lantern Festival February 21st 2008 The Lantern Festival or Yuanxiao Jie is a traditional Chinese festival, which is on the 15th of the first month of Lunar New Year. The festival marks the end of the celebrations of the Chinese New Year. Chinese started to celebrate the Lantern Festival from the Han Dynasty (206 BC - 221 AD). Like most other Chinese festivals, there is also a story behind the Festival. It is also believed that the festival has Taoist origins. This is a festival for people having fun. On the night of the festival, people go on streets with a variety of lanterns under the full moon, watching lions or dragon dancing, playing Chinese riddles and games, and lighting up firecrackers. There is really a lot of fun for the young and the old. The festival is not well celebrated in the US, though you may find celebrations in some Chinese communities. Yuanxiao (glutinous rice ball) or Tangyuan is the special food for the Lantern Festival. It is believed that Yuanxiao is named after a palace maid, Yuanxiao, of Emperor Wu Di of the Han Dynasty. Yuanxiao is a kind of sweet dumpling, which is made with sticky rice flour filled with sweet stuffing. And the festival is named after the famous dumpling. Yuanxiao is sticky, sweet and round in shape, symbolizing family unity, completeness and happiness. You can find Yuanxiao in oriental food stores. If you enjoy cooking, here is a recipe of Yuanxiao for you. Ingredients 4 1/2 cups (500 g) sticky rice flour butter 7 oz (200 g) black sesame powder 7 oz (200 g) sugar 8 oz (250 g) 1 tsp wine Methods 1.

  • Food in China.Pdf
    Food in China Each region of China has its own type of food. Chuan food is hot and spicy; Beijing cooking is done with a lot of meat and vegetables (including the most famous Chinese dish of all, Peking Duck); Cantonese traditions include dim sum and delicacies like shark's fin soup; Shanghai cuisine is prepared with plenty of seafood and oil. Drinks Soft drinks abound in China, both foreign brands and local. You can also buy bottled water everywhere. Other than tea, soft drinks, or bottled water, beer is your best bet. Chinese beer is generally quite good, Qingdao being the best-known brand, and almost every town has its own brew which varies from watery-but-incredibly-cheap to not-bad-and-incredibly- cheap. Beware of Chinese "wine" which is actually powerful grain alcohol. Popular Dishes Jiaozi. Dumplings. These are popular all over China, and come fried, steamed or boiled, and are stuffed with just about everything. Traditionally, families make and eat jiaozi for the Chinese New Year or Spring Festival. Making jiaozi is a social event with a group of people stuffing the dumplings together, the idea being that many hands make light work, and the result is all the tastier for your having participated in the preparation! You can order a plate of jiaozi in a restaurant, or you'll find them served in little snack food joints, often in soup (jiaozi tang). Baozi Steamed buns stuffed with a variety of fillings. These are great snacks that you'll find all over China in various different sizes and varieties.

Received 17 April 2020; Accepted 26 May, 2020 This study compared the structural and rheological properties of native (GB0), 12 h (GB12), 24 h (GB24), 36 h (GB36), 48 h (GB48) and 72 h (GB72) germinated glutinous brown rice starch to improve the market value of glutinous rice through germination. The proportion of A chains (DP 6-12) increases and the proportion of B1 chains (DP 13-24) decreased with germination time. Interestingly, we observed that the total proportion of B2 and B3 chains decreased, but was recovered after germination at 36 h. The effect of germination on the distribution of amylopectin length results in a decrease in relative crystallinity, gelatinisation temperature, gelatinisation enthalpy and pasting viscosities. In this study, we found that GB12 starch gel has the weakest thermal stability and its shear resistance is more difficult to retrogradation; while GB36 has the highest chain association (retrogradation) which is induced by cooling. Key words: Glutinous brown rice, germination, starch, structural properties, rheological properties. INTRODUCTION Glutinous rice commonly referred to as sticky or waxy retrogradation.

However, differences in the results of reconstructions exist even when people are using similar documents. In order to address this issue, 14 published temperature series by different studies were analyzed for coherence and mutual consistency. The analyses on their temporal fluctuations indicate that for the individual time series (standardized) on the 10-years time scales, 57 of the 91 correlation coefficients reach the significance level of 99%. The spatial patterns among the different time series also show high coherency. In addition, consistency also exhibit when comparing the reconstructions with other available natural climate change indicators. Above information was subsequently used to synthesize the temperature series for the last 500 and 1000 years.

Therefore, this study mainly aimed to provide investors with new strategies in buying ETFs of the indices, which not only avoided the instability of individual stocks, but were also able to get a high profit within weeks. Famous theories like Gann theory and the Elliott wave theory suggest that as part of the nature, market regulations and economic activities of human beings shall conform to the laws of nature and the operation of the universe. They further refined only the rules related to specific timepoints and the time cycle rather than the traditional analysis of the complex economic and social factors, which is, to some extent, similar to what the Chinese traditional culture proposes: that every impact on and change in the human society is always attributable to changes in the nature.
