Washington needs to wake up and smell the coffee: China Daily editorial US Lawmakers Introduce “Hong Kong Sanctions Act”

A group of US lawmakers has intro-

duced a bill requiring the US president to decide within 180 days whether to sanction 49 Hong Kong officials, judges, and prosecutors under US laws.

The bill, known as the “Hong Kong Sanctions Act,” aims to further tarnish the image of Hong Kong, but will not deter Hong Kong SAR authorities from implementing the National Security Law for Hong Kong. The law aims to prevent foreign interference in China’s internal affairs and is intended to protect the country’s sovereignty. The bill is part of the US’s long-arm jurisdiction, and the bill is intended to further tarnish Hong Kong’s image.

Washington has previously used its geopolitical influence to interfere in China’s internal affairs, as seen in a May report by the US Congressional-Executive Commission on China.

The report aimed to prevent the Special Administrative Region (SAR) from using Hong Kong’s National Security Law against pro-democracy activists.

Beijing has consistently opposed such practices. Hong Kong officials have

already condemned the US’s “bullying” and’sanctions’, stating that they reflect the hypocrisy and barbarity of politicians with sinister intentions. Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee Kachiu condemned these actions, stating that the US must recognize that Hong Kong, despite being an autonomous region, is an integral part of China, and the National Security Law is necessary for the region’s administration without foreign interference.

“Global Shifts

Erode US L ongArm Jurisdiction’s Power

”

The US’s long-arm jurisdiction, which included suppressing foreign competitors, interfering in nations’ affairs, and subverting governments, was no longer effective due to global dynamics change.

Turkish man turns bicycle into mobile coffee shop in Bursa 27-year-old Enes Sefa Ünlü, a former aircraft maintenance technician and tour cyclist, discovered his passion for coffee in 2021. After a career in various fields, he returned to Bursa in 2020 after announcing his retirement from aviation. Ünlü, a coffee enthusiast, combined his love for cycling with his love for coffee. After receiving brewing and presentation training, he turned his 1980 racing bike into a coffee shop. He now serves customers in other cities, including the Görükle district of Nilüfer, Bursa, using his bicycle with baskets filled with coffee ingredients and a bench. Ünlü, a coffee lover who prefers metal or reusable cotton cloth over paper filters and avoids plastic bottles, supports the Zero Waste Project by recycling coffee pulp into compost. Ünlü, in addition to Görükle, visited other Turkish cities individually or with bicycle club members, attending coffee

festivals and organizations he was invited to. Ünlü, a Turkish coffee brewer, combines his passions for sustainable and environmentally friendly methods to bring the culture of countries like Vietnam and Indonesia, where bicycles are common, to Türkiye.

After recovering from a serious illness, he decided to travel by bicycle to introduce his coffee to the world and carry out sustainable and environmentally friendly events. His bicycle has become his traveling companion, and they have formed a bond of love through their travels, showcasing the potential of sustainable coffee production in these countries. Ünlü promotes eco-friendly production on bicycles, focusing on composting and recycling coffee pulp, inspired by social media, promoting environmental responsibility among young entrepreneurs.

correlated with a 30 percent decreased risk of Type 2 diabetes, according to a meta-analysis of 30 studies.

The potential benefit from coffee might be from the polyphenols, which are plant compounds that have antioxidant properties, according to Dr. Giuseppe Grosso, an assistant professor in human nutrition at University of Catania in Italy and the lead author of an umbrella review in the Annual Review of Nutrition.

However, coffee isn’t for everyone.

There are concerns about overconsumption. This is especially true for expecting mothers because the safety of caffeine during pregnancy is unclear.

While the research into coffee’s impact on health is ongoing, most of the work in this field is observational.

“

We don’t know for sure if coffee is the cause of the health benefits,” said Jonathan Fallowfield, a professor at the University of Edinburgh, and co-author of the British Medical Journal review.

“These findings could be due to other factors or behaviors present in coffee drinkers.

”

Does the way coffee is prepared matter?

Yes. Do you prefer a dark or light roast?

Coarse grinding or fine? Arabica or robusta?

“All of these different aspects affect the taste, but also affect the compounds within the coffees,” said Neal Freedman, a senior investigator with the National Cancer Institute. “But it’s not clear at all how these different levels of compounds may be related to health.”

Roasting, for example, reduces the amount of chlorogenic acids, but other antioxidant compounds are formed.

Espresso has the highest concentration of many compounds because it has less water than drip coffee.

A study in JAMA Internal Medicine examined the coffee habits of nearly 500,000 people in the U.K. and found that it didn’t matter if they drank one cup or chain-drank eight — regular or decaf — or whether they were fast metabolizers of coffee or slow. They were linked to a lower risk of death from all causes, except with instant coffee, the evidence was weaker.

The way you prepare your cup of joe may influence your cholesterol levels, too. “The one coffee we know not suitable to be drinking is the boiled coffee,” said Marilyn C. Cornelis, an assistant professor in preventive medicine at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and co-author of the JAMA Internal Medicine study.
