Unmanned delivery car An unmanned delivery car with 5G wireless technology hit the roads in the city of Nanjing, capital of East China’s Jiangsu Province, over the weekend. The white mini car, with a height of about 0.5 meters, was launched in Jiangbei New Area by Suning Logistics, a subsidiary of Chinese e-commerce giant Suning to support the company’s smart retail service. The car’s self-driving performance has been greatly improved, allowing it to pass traffic lights on its own and at a faster speed, with a normal average operating speed of 8 km/h, and up to 15 km/h. It can also detect obstacles 100 meters away and avoid them. Anti-violence rally More than 470,000 people gathered on Saturday in a rally held at Tamar Park, Admiralty of Hong Kong, to voice their demand for peace and stability in Hong Kong. Waving the Chinese national flag and the flag of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and holding signs with slogans written including “Stop Riots,” “Anti-violence” and “Save Hong Kong,” the crowd was enthusiastic and impassioned despite the rain.
