A Thousand Reasons by Li-Yi
During the signing of the phase one agreement, President Donald Trump talked excitedly for an hour as if celebrating a victory. Liu He, the vice-premier sent to sign it on behalf of China, read aloud President Xi’s letter, “We have a thousand reasons to make China-US relations work and not a single reason to disrupt it.”
Looking back at all the official statements from Chinese media in the last two years, have they not been accusing the US of supporting Hong Kong rioters and Hong Kong independence as well as interfering in the presidential elections in Taiwan? The US passed the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act, the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act and Taiwan Allies International Protection and Enhancement Initiative (TAIPEI) Act all against China. The Americans even sold arms and ammunition to Taiwan. Should there not actually be a thousand reasons to destroy China-US relations and not a single reason to make it work? How would the slaves who listened to their Chinese masters and protested against the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act in front of the Consulate General of the United States interpret Xi’s statement? Would they consider it to be humiliating the nation and forfeiting sovereignty?

Hubei visitors are said to have spat in Macau hotel rooms and floors to take revenge on being discriminated
Editor’s note: The Macau Government is tracking Hubei visitors who are now in Macau, and enforced the Hubei visitors to stay in detention camp even if they do not have pneumonia symptoms; or let them return to Mainland China by themselves. With effect from 27 Jan, any visitors from Hubei or non-Macau residents who have visited Hubei within 14 days have to provide medication proof to ensure that they are not infected with Wuhan coronavirus.

2. The Venetian #Macau colleagues claimed that they are checking in the hotel to see if there are any visitors from Hubei staying. When they found that there was a group of #Hubei visitors in the hotel and asked them to leave, those Hubei guys spat in Room 217! It is insane!
3. It sucks!
4. StarWorld Hotel CCTV showed that some customers intended to take lift and stopped by every floor of the hotel and spat on the floor because they thought that they have been discriminated.

Chinese Communist Party leader Urges the World to Implement Controversial #HealthCode
According to China state broadcaster, Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping called on the world during the G20 summit for the implementation of a health code.
In Hong Kong alone, the Health Code proposal has sparked controversy for its potential infringement of privacy and freedom and issues with the collection and the storage of personal data by the authorities.
On November 19, 2020, Xi also said at the Apec CEO Dialogues that China must rely on a growth model driven by innovation while continuing to deepen so-called supply-side reforms.
Xi also said globalisation is "irreversible" and that China will not engage in "de-coupling".
Throughout 2020, China has come under criticism, particularly from the US, for the coronavirus outbreak.
