Huawei CFO

Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Le Yucheng summoned U.S. Ambassador to China Terry Branstad on Sunday and Canadian Ambassador to China John McCallum on Saturday to lodge* solemn representations and strong protests against the detention of Meng Wanzhou, a senior executive of Huawei Technologies Co., by the Canadian authorities at the unreasonable behest of the United States.

Le said the detention of Meng, who was transferring flights in Vancouver, Canada at the request of the United States is a severe violation of her legitimate rights and interests. “Such a move ignores the law and is unreasonable, unconscionable* and vile in nature,” said Le in the statement.

‘Morality class’

Gender experts and major media platforms criticized a “morality class” for teenage girls in East China insisting that if women change boyfriends, their hands and feet will decay and need to be amputated* finally, and that women are inferior to men.

In a widely circulated video posted by Pear Video on Saturday, a family summer camp in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, allegedly teaches students, most of whom are teenagers, moral principles that women should obey.

Physicist dies

Shoucheng Zhang, a Chinese-American physicist with Stanford University, died at the age of 55 on December 1, according to Digital Horizon Capital, a Silicon Valley-based venture capital fund he co-founded.

Zhang reportedly committed suicide because of depression. Zhang was identified as one of the top candidates for the Nobel Prize by Thomson Reuters in 2014 for his work on quantum* effects. Zhang was also a member of the U.S. National Academy of Science and an academician at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Officials fired

Several senior officials with the education and examination management authorities in Zhejiang Province were punished last week after the weighting of scores in the college entrance examination’s English test sparked widespread discontent and challenges from examinees and teachers.

Chen Guangsheng, deputy secretary-general of Zhejiang’s Provincial Government, told a news conference that two officials had been removed from their posts. (SD-Agencies)
