Medical Marvel: China's "Folded Boy" Stands Tall After Groundbreaking Spinal Surgeries
A touching tale has run rampant on Chinese social media. A 21-year-old Chengdu student nicknamed the "folded boy" has finally walked upright after spending years slouching under the weight of a 120-degree curvature of his spine due to acute ankylosing spondylitis.
Within over 10 months, the Third People's Hospital of Chengdu surgeons performed four very complex osteotomy procedures—repairing his cervical, thoracic, lumbar spine, and hips. His triumphant power to lie flat and stand once more has won millions, trending on hashtags like #FoldedBoyStandsStraight on Weibo and Douyin.
China Flexes Muscle with Dual Aircraft Carrier Drills in the Western Pacific
In an exhibition of sea power, China has confirmed that its Shandong and Liaoning carriers recently conducted combat training exercises in the Western Pacific. The exercises included early-warning systems, night-time flight take-offs, defense drills against strikes, as well as coordination among carrier groups.
These exercises are under the PLA's growing emphasis on regional readiness and have brought international attention and neighboring nations' worry, primarily Japan and the Philippines, as tensions rise in the Indo-Pacific region.
"It's Complicated": China Open to Border Talks with India Amid Long-Standing Dispute
While in the middle of continued attempts at resolving the India-China border tensions in the Himalayas, Beijing has now described the situation as "complicated" but has shown willingness to conduct delimitation talks on certain conditions. This follows recent military-level dialogue and a general attempt by both sides to diffuse tensions following a series of face-offs in the recent past.
While China asks for phased and strategic de-escalation, India hedges, asking for full disengagement and LAC demarcation clarity.
