Truck on track a minute before Taiwan train arrival
The truck which collided with a Taiwanese express train last week killing 50 people slid onto the tracks only around one minute before the accident happened, the government said on Tuesday, as it released dramatic footage of the impact.The packed train carrying almost 500 passengers and crew slammed into a truck near the eastern city of Hualien on Friday, causing it to derail and the front and middle parts to crumple. It was the island's worst rail accident in seven decades.The truck had slid down a sloping road from a building site onto the tracks just outside a tunnel. Officials suspect the truck's brakes were not properly applied and are investigating the manager of the site.Young Hong-tsu, chairman of Taiwan's Transportation Safety Board, said they had reconstructed how the truck had ended up on the rails, tracking its movements down the dirt road before it slipped off a bank and landed on the railway line, its front end facing the oncoming train.Young showed recovered footage taken from inside the driver's cabin as he desperately tried to slow down before hitting the truck at the entrance to the tunnel, causing the train to de-rail."How much time was there between this truck sliding onto the track and it hitting the Taroko express? Actually it was only a little bit more than one minute," he said, referring to the name of the train.Young said the driver had no time to properly slow the train and avoid the accident as he had only seconds to react, the truck being on a bend and not visible until it was too late.In a screenshot from the footage, the truck is clearly seen straddling the track, with leaves and branches sticking out of its front from when it slid down the wooded bank.The victims included two Americans and one French national.Young said Taiwanese authorities had been in touch with the US National Transportation Safety Board and France's transport safety body to see if they were interested in helping with the investigation.

China intensifies Xinjiang propaganda push as global backlash grows
China has intensified claims that it faced a serious “terrorist” threat in Xinjiang as Beijing remained locked in a stand-off with western capitals over its sweeping security clampdown on Muslim minorities in the region. CGTN, the international arm of China’s state broadcaster, aired the final episode in a four-part documentary series that sought to justify the government’s policies by blaming international terrorist groups for violence in the region.
Western politicians and international scholars of Xinjiang have argued that Beijing’s claims of a “terrorist” threat are exaggerated and are lack of evidence for orchestrated attacks in the region.

China Takes Aim at ‘Illegal’ Club for Foreign Correspondents
China slammed a Foreign Correspondents’ Club of China (FCCC) as an “illegal organization,” broadening its attack on journalists whose reports differ from the government’s official line. While Beijing has long described the FCCC as illegal, the rebuke as a whole was longer and more detailed than in the past.
The BBC’s China correspondent John Sudworth recently left Beijing for Taipei. That followed criticism from the government over the broadcaster’s recent coverage. The BBC News Press Team said in a statement that his reporting “exposed truths the Chinese authorities did not want the world to know.”
The Communist Party-backed Global Times characterized Sudworth’s work as biased.

The world is not a game of monopoly - whoever get their first to claim the place? No. And China is not every paying lol.
The world doesn’t work like that and the world cannot play to China’s rule book! With some weaker countries may not have the army or firepower to protect themselves, the international community need to get together to help protect not only these countries, but the order of the world!

What a shameless piece of propaganda. No doubt #CCP would like the world to see #Xinjiang as an all-singing, all-dancing happy wonderland, but the world knows that the truth is far from that. This white-washing is simply not going to work, if anything, it just highlights how CCP is scrambling to cover up its humanitarian crimes.
