"The’ mysterious gas’ that destroys the ozone layer comes from China." Recently, the Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA), a British-based NGO, reported that in the polyurethane foam (PU) industry, there are still enterprises in China that illegally produce and use trichlorofluoromethane (CFC-11).

According to the staff of the Foreign Cooperation Center of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the Ministry of Environmental Protection pays great attention to this matter and is currently organizing a series of scientific research and inspection in all aspects.

As early as 2007, the former Ministry of Environmental Protection issued the Announcement on Prohibiting the Production of Perfluorocarbons (CFCs), which stipulated that any enterprise was prohibited from producing and using 15 substances, including CFC-11.

It has been banned for more than ten years. Where did the "accusation" in the EIA report come from?

Existing but not mainstream.

Polyurethane foam, especially polyurethane rigid foam composite, has been in great demand in recent years because of its good thermal insulation effect, moisture-proof and anti-corrosion, and low cost. At present, China has become the largest producer and consumer of rigid polyurethane foam in the world.

CFC-11 is a foaming agent added in the production of rigid polyurethane foam.The reporter contacted a number of foaming agents, material suppliers or manufacturers online and offline, and they admitted that it is "cheaper" to sell fluorine-containing foaming agents.

Many interviewees admitted that the illegal acts discovered this time "may cause a passive situation in China’s international performance".

The reporter learned that China formally joined the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer (London Amendment) in June 1991. Accordingly, China polyurethane foam industry has completely eliminated CFCs in 2010. "In the industry, CFC-11 is not allowed to be used." Li Jianbo, Deputy Secretary-General of China Polyurethane Industry Association, told the reporter that the state has provided a variety of alternative products and technical solutions for each CFC substance. "China is in the second stage of phasing out HCFC-141b, a substitute for CFC-11, which damages the ozone layer by one tenth of the former".

In May, 2007, the former Ministry of Environmental Protection issued the Recommended Catalogue of Ozone Depleting Substances (Revised). There are more than 10 kinds of CFC-11 substitutes, which are used as refrigerants and foaming agents in different products such as household appliances, heat preservation pipes and tobacco processing.

According to Wei Ke, an associate researcher at the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, since the implementation of the plan for more than 10 years, the iteration of alternative technologies has been rapid, and the refrigerants are relatively mature. For example, household appliances such as air conditioners and refrigerators are fluorine-free products. However, in terms of foaming agent, the alternatives are transitional. "Although the ozone depletion value (ODP) of some alternatives is 0, the greenhouse effect value (GWP) is very high, and the world is gradually freezing and decreasing."

"There are difficulties in the transition stage." Meng Qingjun, deputy secretary-general of China Plastics Processing Industry Association, admits that hydrocarbon technology has security risks and is difficult to approve; The technical performance of water is poor and the cost is high; There are also some technologies that have been included in the control targets and are not encouraged to use because of the greenhouse effect. In addition, polyurethane foam production enterprises are mainly small and medium-sized enterprises, with fierce competition and insufficient technology, capital and management capabilities. "But difficulties cannot be used as an excuse for a few enterprises to use CFC-11."

"In the process of substitution, with the rising cost, improvement of equipment, improvement of technical specifications and safety requirements, enterprises without social conscience will continue to adopt low-cost and environmentally unfriendly substances." Li Jianbo said.

However, after participating in the relevant investigation organized by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, Li Jianbo thinks that the EIA investigation is also biased. Most illegal enterprises that produce and use CFC-11 are "underground factories", which is definitely not the mainstream in China. However, this illegal behavior must be severely cracked down.

Ozone "killer"

In the 1920s, after the invention of HCFCs, they were considered as "a very perfect substance as a foaming agent and a refrigerant".

Sun Yang, a researcher at the Institute of Atmospheric Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, told the reporter that under general conditions, the chemical properties of chlorofluorocarbons are very stable, among which CFC-11 is easy to compress and liquefy, with high latent heat of evaporation, low toxicity, nonflammability and low cost. Widely used in polyurethane foam foaming agent, air conditioning refrigerant, cosmetics, pesticide aerosol, fire extinguishing agent and other products.

When the foaming agent is trapped in the polyurethane foam in the gas state, the polyurethane foam has the least heat and cold transmission. "Polyurethane foam foamed with CFC-11 has the best thermal insulation performance." Sun Yang said.

After several decades, scientists have found that the ozone layer "hole" and the greenhouse effect are becoming more and more serious, and the reason is the emission and enrichment of chlorofluorocarbons from human activities.

Because the CFCs gas emitted by human beings is very stable, it hardly decomposes in the troposphere. When it diffuses to the stratosphere, when it is exposed to ultraviolet radiation from the sun, a photochemical reaction of carbon-chlorine chain breakage will occur, and the generated chlorine atom will be used as a catalyst, resulting in the conversion of ozone into oxygen. "One chlorine atom can destroy about 100,000 ozone molecules, and the emission of CFCs gas causes ozone to be continuously consumed, thus making the stratosphere lose its ability to absorb ultraviolet rays." Sun Yang said.

The destruction of the ozone layer means that the ultraviolet rays of the sun reaching the surface are enhanced. This will seriously harm people’s skin and eyes, damage people’s immune system, and do harm to food production and animals and plants.

Wei Ke also said that CFCs have a long life span in the atmosphere. "It can always exist in the stratosphere, and it can only be removed from the atmosphere through various circulation in the stratosphere and finally to the ground, and this process is very slow."

Let the offenders lose more than they gain.

After the incident was disclosed, China Plastics Processing Industry Association issued the "Initiative on Consciously Resisting Illegal Foaming Agents" to encourage employees to take cracking down on CFC-11 as their own job.

Li Jianbo believes that relying on inspectors can cure the symptoms, not the root cause. "To truly solve the problem, we must establish a credit mechanism, implement the main responsibility of enterprises, and make the offenders unprofitable, or even lose more than they gain, from being forced to resist in the past to being a conscious behavior of enterprises."

In Wei Ke’s view, this is a corporate interest-driven behavior. He believes that it is necessary to strictly enforce the law, check the production process and product acceptance of enterprises, increase publicity, and enhance the self-discipline of the whole industry.

"China has been on the road of zero ODP and low GWP substitution." Meng Qingjun said that it is an established choice for the polyurethane foam industry to choose environmental protection technology, but at the same time it will inevitably bring new problems, which need not only technical research by enterprises, but also shared by downstream users and consumers.

On June 22 this year, Northwestern Polytechnical University issued a "Public Statement" saying that the school was attacked by overseas cyber attacks, and then the Xi ‘an police officially filed an investigation. The China National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center and 360 Company jointly formed a technical team to participate in the technical analysis of the case, and on September 5, the first "Investigation Report on Northwestern Polytechnical University’s Cyber Attacks by NSA in the United States" was released. The investigation report pointed out that the source of this cyber attack was the specific intrusion action office under the National Security Agency (NSA). Today (27th), the technical team released the investigation report on related cyber attacks again. The report revealed that during the cyber attack on Northwestern Polytechnical University, the Office of Specific Invasion Action (TAO) built a (so-called) "legal" channel for remote access to the core data network of infrastructure operators in China, and achieved the infiltration control of China’s infrastructure.Details > >

　　A number of evidences show that the National Security Agency (NSA) is behind the scenes.

　　The investigation report revealed that the Office of Specific Invasion Operations (TAO) under the National Security Agency (NSA) exposed a number of technical loopholes and made many operational mistakes in the process of cyberattacks on Northwestern Polytechnical University. Relevant evidence further proved that the behind-the-scenes attack on Northwestern Polytechnical University was the NSA.

　　The investigation found that when using tipoff activation command and remote control of NOPEN Trojan, the Office of Specific Invasion Operations (TAO) under the National Security Agency (NSA) must operate manually, and the actual working time of network attackers can be analyzed from the attack time of these two tools.

　　First of all, according to the big data analysis of related cyber attacks, 98% of cyber attacks on Northwestern Polytechnical University are concentrated between 21: 00 and 4: 00 am Beijing time, which corresponds to 9: 00 to 16: 00 EST, and belongs to the domestic working time in the United States. Secondly, there was no cyber attack on Northwestern Polytechnical University on all Saturdays and Sundays in the United States. Thirdly, by analyzing the unique holidays in the United States, it is found that the "Memorial Day" in the United States has three days off, and the "Independence Day" in the United States has one day off. During these four days, the attacker did not carry out any attack and theft. Fourth, after a long period of close tracking of the attacks, it was found that all cyber attacks were silent during the Christmas period. Judging from the above working hours and holiday arrangements, those who attack and steal secrets against Northwestern Polytechnical University are unscrupulous and undisguised in their activities according to the schedule of working days in the United States.

　　Du Zhenhua, Senior Engineer of National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center:TAO’s cyber attack on Northwestern Polytechnical University shows that the technical complexity is relatively high, the attack cycle is relatively long, and the workload of manual operation is relatively large, so under such conditions, the probability of human error is relatively high. Then these mistakes can be used by us to analyze the attribution. According to the attribution analysis, for example, the instruction string leaked in the accident this time, as well as some characteristic strings in the code, then the characteristics of this natural language reflected by it are in line with the characteristics of this English-speaking country.

　　During the long-term tracking and reverse osmosis of network attackers, the technical team found that the attackers have the following language characteristics: First, the attackers have the habit of using American English; Second, the internet devices associated with the attackers are all equipped with English operating systems and various English-language applications; Third, the attacker uses the American keyboard for input.

　　360 company network security expert Bian Liang:For example, we caught it once. During the attack, its command to send a script was wrong, wrong, and wrong. Then, this tool will prompt the attacker, and if something goes wrong, it will return the error information to the attacker to give him a hint. This information includes the attacker’s current operating system environment, which actually exposes that the attacker’s related information is the US War Office (TAO).

　　The technical team found that at 5: 36 on May 16th, 20 ××× Beijing time, the cyberattacker used the springboard machine located in South Korea (IP: 222.122. ××××××) and attacked Northwestern Polytechnical University again with the NOPEN Trojan. When trying to invade and control a network device after the third-level infiltration of the intranet of Northwestern Polytechnical University, there was a human error when running the upload PY script tool, and the specified parameters were not modified. After the script is executed, an error message is returned, which exposes the working directory and the corresponding file name of the attacker’s online terminal. From this, it can be known that the system environment of the Trojan control terminal is Linux system, and the corresponding directory name "/etc/autoutils" is the special name of the directory of network attack weapons tools of the specific intrusion action office (TAO).

　　The error message is as follows:

　　Quantifier follows nothing in regex; marked by <– HERE in m/* <– HERE .log/ at https://news.cctv.com/2022/09/etc/autoutils line 4569

　　The technical team found that 16 of the 41 different cyber attack weapons used in the attack on secrets of Northwestern Polytechnical University were completely consistent with the TAO weapons exposed by the "shadow broker" in 2016; Although 23 tools are not exactly the same as those exposed by the "shadow broker", their genetic similarity is as high as 97%, and they belong to the same type of weapons, but their related configurations are different; The other two tools can’t correspond to the "Shadow Broker" exposure tool, but they need to be used together with other cyber attack weapons tools of TAO, so these weapons and tools obviously have homology and belong to TAO.

　　360 company network security expert Bian Liang:Every program developer or author will have his related habits, for example, it is similar to our writing style, and he won’t easily change this habit in a day or two, so the program is the same. There are many such logics in it, and its algorithm includes its data structure, so we will grasp this habit through our analysis and make a comprehensive comparison to find out whether it belongs to such an attack weapon of the same type or the same family and gene.

　　The comprehensive analysis of the technical team found that in the tens of thousands of cyber attacks against targets in China, especially the thousands of cyber attacks launched against Northwestern Polytechnical University, some weapons used in the attack process were implanted with Trojans before the "shadow broker" exposed NSA weapons and equipment in 2016. According to NSA’s behavior habits, the above weapons and tools are likely to be used by TAO employees themselves.

　　NSA invades China’s infrastructure-related equipment and steals user privacy data.

　　It is understood that the technical team conducted forensic analysis on the traces of cyber attacks suffered by Northwestern Polytechnical University and the on-site environment through relevant technical means, and judged the attack methods and time of the specific intrusion action office (TAO) under the National Security Agency (NSA), and disclosed typical cases of related cyber attacks.

　　1. Steal key sensitive data such as password and operation record of remote business management account of Northwestern Polytechnical University.

　　According to the investigation report, the specific intrusion action office (TAO) under the National Security Agency (NSA) installed a sniffing tool "drinking tea" in the operation and maintenance management server of Northwestern Polytechnical University, and secretly sniffed and stole the remote maintenance management information of the operation and maintenance management personnel of Northwestern Polytechnical University for a long time, including the password of the network boundary device account, the access rights of business devices, the configuration information of routers and other devices.

　　The technical team found that the types of network equipment sniffed by Northwestern Polytechnical University include fixed Internet access network equipment (routers, authentication servers, etc.), core network equipment (core routers, switches, firewalls, etc.), and also important equipment (data service platforms, etc.) of communication infrastructure operators, including account number, password, equipment configuration, network configuration and other information.

　　At 6: 52 on December 11th, 20××× Beijing time, TAO used the proxy server (IP: 130.54 .××××××) located in Kyoto University of Japan as an attack springboard, illegally invaded the "telnet" management server of the operation and maintenance network of Northwestern Polytechnical University, uploaded and installed the NOPEN Trojan, and then controlled its intranet monitoring and management server in cascade. Both of the above servers had been installed with "tea drinking" sniffing in advance. TAO remotely controls the Trojan to retrieve and download the compressed and encrypted monitoring record file, and then clears the trace and exits. Stealing data includes the management account number, password, device configuration, network configuration and other information of routers and core network devices (core routers, switches, firewalls).

　　2. Steal the configuration files and log files of network equipment operation and maintenance in Northwestern Polytechnical University.

　　The specific intrusion action office (TAO) under the National Security Agency (NSA) of the United States has long attacked and invaded the network operation and maintenance management server of Northwestern Polytechnical University, secretly stealing network equipment operation and maintenance configuration files and log files.

　　At 10: 41 on October 11th, 20××× Beijing time, TAO invaded and controlled an intranet server of Northwestern Polytechnical University through a proxy server located in Korea (IP: 210.115 ××××××). At 10: 48, after two lateral moves, TAO invaded another intranet server, accessed the regular task configuration scripts in a specific directory, and retrieved 14 configuration files for regular tasks. Subsequently, these 14 files were stolen at one time, which can be used to perform regular cleaning, backup, power check and other operations.

　　3. Infiltration control of China infrastructure core equipment.

　　The specific intrusion action office (TAO) under the National Security Agency (NSA) of the United States used the password of the stolen network equipment account to enter the service network of an infrastructure operator in China as a "legitimate" status, control the related service quality monitoring system, and steal the user’s private data.

　　At 22:53 on March 7th, 20××× Beijing time, the Office of Specific Invasion Operations (TAO) of the National Security Agency of the United States attacked and controlled the service server of an infrastructure operator in China through the attack agent 148.208××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

　　At 15:02 on the same day, TAO saved the queried user data in the directory of the attacked server/var/tmp/.2e434fd8aaee73e1/ERF/out/f/,and then packaged it and sent it back to the attack springboard. Subsequently, the attack traces such as infiltration tools and user data uploaded during the process of stealing secrets were quickly removed by special tools.

　　Du Zhenhua, Senior Engineer of National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center:TAO used many kinds of cyber weapons in this attack against Northwestern Polytechnical University, specifically, such as acid fox, so it belongs to a typical loophole-breaking weapon. Through this middleman attack, it can deliver other cyber weapons to the victimized host in the intranet, such as anger spraying and never disclosing such persistent control weapons. It can further attack and penetrate the intranet according to this control instruction sent by TAO remotely, and move horizontally. It can deploy weapons like sniffing and stealing secrets. By sniffing and stealing weapons like drinking tea, it can steal more remote management host account passwords.

　　360 company network security expert Bian Liang:Drinking tea is a weapon, which is similar to a spy in our war. It can eavesdrop on our traffic data in the network. Through the monitoring of network data, it can steal sensitive data and information related to us, just like there may be a third party listening through the wall when we are chatting.

　　According to the analysis of the technical team, the Office of Specific Invasion Operations (TAO) under the National Security Agency (NSA) of the United States used the same combination of weapons and tools to "legally" control the telecommunications infrastructure networks in no less than 80 countries around the world. The technical team cooperated with the partners in Europe and Southeast Asian countries, successfully extracted and fixed the samples of the above weapons and tools, and successfully completed the technical analysis, which is planned to be released to the public in due course to help the world jointly resist and prevent the network penetration attack of NSA.

　　Maintaining network security is the common responsibility of the international community.

　　After continuous hard work, the technical team successfully locked in the target node, multi-stage springboard, main control platform, encrypted tunnel, attack weapon and original terminal that launched the cyber attack on Northwestern Polytechnical University by the Specific Invasion Action Office (TAO) under the National Security Agency (NSA), found the identity clues of the attacker, and successfully identified the true identities of 13 attackers.

　　According to the report, the National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center and 360 Company jointly formed a technical team to participate in the technical analysis of this case. The technical team received the full support of partners from some countries in Europe and Southeast Asia, and comprehensively restored the overall profile, technical characteristics, attack weapons, attack paths and attack sources of the related attacks, and initially identified that the related attacks originated from the specific intrusion action office (TAO) of the National Security Agency (NSA). This series of research reports will provide reference cases for countries around the world to effectively discover and prevent TAO’s follow-up cyber attacks.

　　Professor Zuo Xiaodong, School of Cyberspace Security, School of Public Affairs, University of Science and Technology of China:Because the network attack is cross-border, it is extremely difficult to trace the source of the network attack, both technically and procedurally.

　　Experts say that cyberspace is the common home of mankind, cyber attacks are a common threat facing the whole world, and maintaining network security is the common responsibility of the international community. In response to such cyber attacks, it is even more necessary for relevant countries to work together to find out who is behind the scenes.

　　On September 8, Yang Tao, Director of the Department of American Studies of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, made solemn representations to the US Embassy in China on the cyber attack and theft of secrets by the United States against our Northwestern Polytechnical University.

　　Yang Tao pointed out that a few days ago, China National Computer Virus Emergency Response Center and 360 Company released an investigation report on the cyber attack carried out by the subordinate departments of the National Security Agency in China, and the relevant facts were clear and the evidence was conclusive and sufficient. This is not the first time that the US government has carried out cyber attacks and stolen sensitive information against China institutions. The actions of the United States seriously infringe on the technical secrets of relevant institutions in China and seriously endanger the security of key infrastructure, institutions and personal information in China, and must be stopped immediately.

The dragon boat festival is coming, red pomegranate flowers are full of mountain village.

The poet ate two jiao zong zi, and the Gao Guan was on the Mugwort.

Today is June 3, 2022,

The fifth day of May in Renyin year.

Another year of Dragon Boat Festival.

Green mountains and green waters are full of warehouses.

Dragon Boat Festival, the memory of song and rain changes across tang style, has experienced the changes of the Chinese dynasty, with the heroic dragon boat race and the noise of fishing drums contending, as if it were an ancient girl, swaying from the reeds, touching Tsing Yi, leisurely walking towards us.

In midsummer, the sun is shining in the afternoon, the mountains are green and the birds are singing.

On the Dragon Boat Festival, when you climb high and look far, or watch the dragon boat race on the river, or taste the holiday food all over, I only hope that the time will be quiet and live up to the long years.

01

Dragon Boat Festival Source

Dragon Boat Festival is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month every year.

According to the Records of Jingchu’s Years, it is recorded that it is midsummer when the sun is on the mountain in midsummer, and it is midsummer in May. Its first afternoon is the day when it is sunny to climb the mountain in the sun, so the fifth day of May is also called Duanyang Festival.

In addition, the Dragon Boat Festival is also called the Noon Festival, the May Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, and the Bathing Orchid Festival. Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional cultural festival popular in China and other countries in the Chinese character cultural circle.

There are many explanations about the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival. The most famous one is in memory of Qu Yuan, a doctor of Chu State.

According to legend, the king of Chu listened to rumors and exiled Qu Yuan, who advocated anti-Qin.

After the state of Qin invaded the capital of Chu, desperate Qu Yuan threw himself into the Miluo River with a big stone in his arms.

It is this feeling of home and country that makes Qu Yuan remembered for a long time.

In addition, the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival also includes Wu Zixu’s outspoken coachable, and Cao E, the filial daughter of the Eastern Han Dynasty, who threw herself into the river to die for her father.

Dragon Boat Festival is a festival full of poetic and patriotic traditions, whether it’s doctor Qu Yuan of Chu who doesn’t want to drag out an ignoble existence or Wu Zixu who speaks bluntly about coachable.

This kind of quality of standing up for the rise and fall of the country, being steadfast and unyielding is our most extensive spiritual sustenance for the Dragon Boat Festival, and it has also painted the background color of the Chinese nation’s feelings about home and country.

Dragon Boat Festival Customs

Throughout the ages, people use zongzi, dragon boat, calamus, wormwood, angelica dahurica and realgar wine to make the festival flourish.

Writer Wang Zengqi said: "Folk custom is a collective lyric poem of a nation."

Yes, no matter how busy a person is on weekdays, as long as it comes to festivals, he will become affectionate and romantic, and even his pace will slow down a lot.

Festivals of our Chinese nation are as colorful as spring flowers, which are dotted with plain life and make our days lively and fragrant.

offer sacrifices to ancestors

Sacrificial rites play a supreme role in the Five Rites of China. Rites of past dynasties and official rites and music all take the ritual ceremony as the first place in accordance with the Zhengshuo Zhou system. Sacrificing Qu Yuan, a patriotic sage, on the Dragon Boat Festival is a sign of respect, a feeling and a memory.

dragon boat race

In ancient times, Chu people were reluctant to give up their sage Qu Yuan’s death by throwing himself into the river, and many people rowed to catch up and save. They scrambled to catch up with each other and disappeared when they reached Dongting Lake.

After that, I will row a dragon boat on May 5th every year to commemorate it. Dispel the fish in the river by rowing dragon boats, so as not to eat Qu Yuan’s body. The habit of racing is prevalent in Wu, Yue and Chu.

dragon dance

Dragon dancing, also known as "playing with dragon lanterns", comes from people’s worship of dragons. In Chinese’s mind, dragons are auspicious spirits and masters of weathering rain.

In ancient times, dragon dances were performed during festive festivals. Later, this custom has continued to this day and has become an activity of Chinese traditional folk culture. Up to now, people will still pray for peace and good luck in the form of dragon dancing at the Dragon Boat Festival.

Eating zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival

People in Jingchu cooked glutinous rice or steamed rice cakes and threw them into the river on May 5th to offer sacrifices to Qu Yuan. Many people love to wrap red dates in zongzi, which is homophonic as "early middle school", meaning that children who are studying can win the first prize early.

You must cook eggs in the pot where zongzi is cooked, and if possible, you should cook some duck eggs and goose eggs. After eating sweet zongzi dipped in sugar, you should eat eggs dipped in salt.

It is said that eating boiled eggs in the Dragon Boat Festival in May will not cause sores in summer; Put the duck eggs and goose eggs cooked in the zongzi pot in the sun at noon for a while before eating, so that you won’t have a headache all summer.

Peixiangnang

Wearing sachets is also one of the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival. Legend has it that it means to ward off evil spirits and drive away plague. The sachet contains cinnabar, realgar and fragrant medicine, and it is wrapped with new silk cloth, which is full of fragrance, and then tied with five-color silk threads to form a rope, which can be made into different shapes.

In ancient times, sachets were also used as a symbol of life-saving and good luck.

Because sachets are hand-sewn, each stitch and thread contains a lot of deep affection. It is a sincere intention to give them as gifts. Nowadays, sachet has become a unique folk handicraft of Dragon Boat Festival.

Hanging wormwood and calamus

A folk proverb says, "Willows are inserted in Qingming Festival, and Ai is inserted in Dragon Boat Festival". It’s midsummer, the climate in the north and south is hot and humid, snakes and scorpions are infested, epidemics are prevalent, and people are threatened by the harsh living environment. It is everyone’s wish to look forward to the smooth and safe life, which is also the initial reason why the Dragon Boat Festival is highlighted.

On the Dragon Boat Festival, calamus and moxa sticks are inserted into the door eyebrows; Acorus calamus, Folium Artemisiae Argyi, Liuhua, Bulbus Allii, and Dragon Boat Flower are hung in the hall in human form or tiger shape, and can also be made into garlands as ornaments to ward off evil spirits.

Dragon Boat Festival is also a "health festival" handed down from ancient times. On this day, people sweep the courtyard, hang mugwort, hang calamus, drink realgar wine and light cinnabar to sterilize and prevent diseases. These activities also reflect the fine traditions of the Chinese nation.

Dianzhusha

Put cinnabar on children’s foreheads during the Dragon Boat Festival, which means that children are healthy and safe. Painting the word "Wang" on a child’s forehead symbolizes expelling disasters and plagues for the child, symbolizing happiness and auspiciousness.

Style dance

The origin of style dance can be traced back to the ancient East in the Neolithic Age. People found a tall fig tree in the forest, peeled it, tied colorful ribbons at one end of the tree and decorated it with garlands.

The other end stands on the ground, and everyone wraps the trunk with ribbons according to certain dance steps and rhythms. When the music is over, the trunk becomes a beautiful style.

Later, people danced stylized dances to worship tree gods and grain gods to celebrate agricultural harvest and the coming of spring. Colorful ribbons represented colorful blessings.

Bolt five-color silk thread

Ying Shao’s "Custom Pass" records: "On May 5th, people tied their arms with multicolored silk, named Long Life Silk, one who continued life silk, one who ordered soldiers to fight, one who ordered five colors silk, and one who ordered Zhu Suo to fight soldiers and ghosts, so that people would not get sick."

It is said that children wearing five-color lines can avoid the harm of snakes and scorpions; Throwing it into the river means letting the river wash away plagues and diseases, so that children can be safe and healthy.

It is also said that on the first rainy day after the Dragon Boat Festival, cutting off colorful threads and throwing them in the rain will bring you good luck for a year.

Dragon Boat Festival Message

A lifetime, a few years in a hurry.

Only cherishing every day of life is the best awe and respect for life.

Cherishing every festival is the inheritance and promotion of a traditional culture, the love of an ancient custom and custom, and the precipitation and feelings for a special day.

In fact, every festival has an extraordinary experience, which will have a special meaning.

The reason why we continue these festivals year after year is a kind of remembrance, a kind of yearning, that is, to remember the past, be grateful for everything we have today and love life better.

In the Dragon Boat Festival, a festival with long thoughts, let’s slow down and feel the calmness and comfort of life. Let wandering souls and tired hearts rest and comfort; Let life be more warm and happy, and the days are more and more happy and sweet!

A leaf of rice dumplings, wrapped in continuous feelings, a handful of wormwood, inserted with longing and expectation!

Today’s Dragon Boat Festival, I hope everyone can taste the sweetness of time. Peace and well-being in midsummer days.

Click [Like], I wish you flowers in your skirt, and the years are clear and affectionate. May this world be prosperous, everything be smooth and healthy!

　　　　Moderator: The 62nd session of the UN General Assembly ended in mid-September, and the so-called proposal of "Taiwan Province’s joining the UN" was rejected. However, the Taiwan Province authorities’ action of "joining the UN" did not stop, and they kept making strange moves. The Taiwan Province authorities stipulated that tens of thousands of private letters on the island should be stamped with the propaganda seal of "Taiwan Province’s entry into the United Nations" from October 5th, which caused some people to protest, believing that this action violated civil liberties. In addition, the examination questions of middle school students in Taiwan Province have also been used by the education authorities to make a big fuss. The examination questions about the content of "joining the league" have caused headaches for students and embarrassed teachers. So, how many tricks did the Taiwan Province authorities come up with to promote its referendum on joining the United Nations? What kind of dissatisfaction has caused the people? Today, we invite two current affairs commentators from Taiwan Province to discuss this topic through satellite connection. One is Mr. Li Jiannan, a commentator on current affairs, and the other is Professor Zheng Youping from Taipei University. Hello, guys.

　　　　Li Jiannan: Good host, ladies and gentlemen.

　　　　Zheng Youping: Good host, everyone.

　　　　Moderator: First of all, let’s learn about the relevant situation through a short film.

　　　　Recently, the Taiwan Province authorities have resorted to unscrupulous means to promote the referendum on joining the United Nations, which has aroused strong dissatisfaction among the people of Taiwan Province.

　　　　According to media reports in Taiwan Province, since October 5th, the Taiwan Province authorities have asked the postal department of Taiwan Province to select tens of thousands of letters each day with the stamp of "Taiwan Province’s entry into the United Nations" in both Chinese and English. This makes Tao Weiji, an American who teaches in Taiwan Province, very dissatisfied.

　　　　Tao Weiji: "This is a private letter, not a letter from a government agency. Then it seems that you are putting this sentence in my mouth. I think this is not acceptable. "

　　　　According to the requirements of the Taiwan Province authorities, there are 300 post offices in Taiwan, and each post office has to post 200 mails with the stamp of "Joining the United Nations" every day. It is hoped that 60,000 people all over the world will receive such letters every day. Such propaganda techniques have been criticized by representatives of the Kuomintang public opinion.

　　　　Representative of the Kuomintang (KMT) public opinion: "The foreigner of the referendum on joining the United Nations seems to regard it as a joke, so we hope that the post office should stop."

　　　　It is understood that this policy led by the Taiwan Province authorities will last until the end of December this year. At present, some lawyers have encouraged the public to file charges against this violation of people’s freedom of speech.

　　　　The Taiwan Province authorities not only stamped a postmark on private mail promoting "Taiwan Province’s entry into the United Nations", but even added "Taiwan Province’s entry into the United Nations" to students’ examination questions. For example, in the question bank of the website of Taiwan’s education authorities, "What kind of goals will joining the United Nations help achieve?" Such a topic.

　　　　Such a topic appeared in the examination questions, which aroused the doubts of teachers and students at school.

　　　　(In the same period) Taiwan Province students: "If they speak on their own, they will be terrible, and then they say that they are local feelings, you should respect others first."

　　　　Teacher Taiwan Province: "Our teacher’s task is to describe the current situation in society to students. As for comments, it is not convenient for us to participate in political things in class."

　　　　Taiwan Province authorities even used the water and electricity bills as a tool to promote "joining the United Nations". Many people in Taiwan Province reported that the water and electricity bills received in September and October were all printed with the propaganda stamp of "Taiwan Province’s joining the United Nations", which caused many people to resent and criticized the Democratic Progressive Party authorities for squandering people’s hard-earned money.

　　　　The person in charge of Taiwan Province CNPC also revealed that in September, they received an official document issued by the administrative department and economic department of Taiwan Province requesting to cooperate with the promotion of the referendum on joining the United Nations, stipulating that more than 600 directly operated gas stations in Taiwan Province will post the slogan of joining the United Nations from October, and from November, the slogan of joining the United Nations will also be printed on the invoices of gas stations.

　　　　A few days ago, the propaganda of the so-called "referendum on joining the United Nations" by the Taiwan Province authorities by hook or by crook has been met with constant resistance from Taiwan Province society. On October 17th, representatives of the Kuomintang Taipei public opinion came to Chen Shui-bian’s office and demanded to remove the advertising signs erected in front of the office building to promote "Taiwan Province’s accession to the United Nations". They thought that these billboards were illegally erected and should be removed.

　　　　(In the same period) Wang Zhibing, a representative of the Kuomintang Taipei public opinion: "Since the end of August, it has been an illegal object."

　　　　In response to the Taiwan Province authorities’ unscrupulous propaganda of the "referendum on joining the United Nations", more and more people in Taiwan Province began to show disgust.

　　　　Moderator: Ladies and gentlemen, as we have just seen from the information in the short film, the Taiwan Province authorities now require the postal department to stamp more than 60,000 private envelopes with the seal of "Joining the Union" every day, which has already aroused the dissatisfaction of a foreign teacher who works in Taiwan Province, saying that it has violated people’s freedom of speech. Professor Li, what do you think of this matter? Personal letters have become publicity materials for Taiwan Province authorities to join the United Nations. Is this reasonable and legal?

　　　　Li: It can be completely unreasonable, unreasonable and illegal. First of all, we know that freedom of speech has two levels, one is freedom of speech and the other is freedom of not speaking. The freedom of speech includes pros and cons. For example, I have written about your "referendum" in the newspaper long ago. I said that "referendum" is a fake topic, and I am totally opposed to "referendum", but I can only vote in newspapers and in places where I can express my freedom of speech. Then you stamped the postmark today, so many people objected. Why did he force this? You violated freedom of speech. Second, there are many people he doesn’t want to express, so you also infringe on his freedom of speech.

　　　　The second point we want to talk about is that private letters are private documents in law, and letters from government agencies are called official documents. In the same way, the government has no right to interfere with private documents, because it is an expression of consciousness in law, an expression of my mind, and it has legal effect. If you speak in this way, you will violate freedom of speech and consciousness in law.
Moderator: But now, although some people express strong indignation and opposition, the relevant departments of Taiwan Province authorities say that this practice will not be changed, and the propaganda stamp of "joining the United Nations" will still be stamped. Professor Zheng, what consequences do you think this may bring?

　　　　Zheng: Democratic Progressive Party’s practice is obviously an abuse of political power and an arrogance of power. What he represents is that once I can seize power, I will abuse it with me from now on, and no one is allowed to say more. The absurdity of Democratic Progressive Party’s abuse of power and arrogance of power in the referendum on joining the United Nations today is not limited to the stamp. In many other cases, whether it is water and electricity bills, invoices of PetroChina gas stations, or in various organs, he has to put up flags or require public vehicles to be affixed with stickers. All this reflects that Democratic Progressive Party has no so-called "administrative neutrality" at all. Democratic Progressive Party is not only arrogant in power, but also disrespects the neutrality of the administration. He even forces these civil servants in the administrative organs to do something that goes against their own beliefs or their own political positions. This is completely in line with what Mr. Li said just now, and Democratic Progressive Party’s practice is a serious violation of freedom of speech.

　　　　In 1977, in New Hampshire, the United States, there was a ridiculous move. At that time, the state government forced the so-called slogan "Give me liberty or give me death" on the license plates of all passenger cars. At that time, some people protested and said, why do I have to accept your slogan "Give me liberty or give me death"? Do I have the freedom to say that I should not put such a stamp on my car? As a result, the lawsuit went all the way to the Federal Supreme Court, and the judgment made by the Federal Supreme Court was very interesting. He said that the constitutional provisions on freedom of speech not only gave people the right to speak freely, but also guaranteed people’s freedom of speech. Therefore, the Federal Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the New Hampshire government was unconstitutional. Ladies and gentlemen, the United States is a country that attaches great importance to freedom of speech. If the precedent of the Supreme Court of the United States cannot give us any enlightenment, then you in Democratic Progressive Party are really blind and deaf. To put it bluntly, this practice is a bit like fascist dictatorship. To put it bluntly, Democratic Progressive Party totally refuses to listen to people’s opposition.

　　　　Moderator: Let’s look at it again. When the Taiwanese education department recently announced the examination question bank for middle school students, it was also found that even the current affairs examination for junior high school students in Taiwan Province appeared such a topic as "What kind of task will Taiwan Province strive to return to the United Nations?" Both teachers and students criticized that this topic was too pan-politicized. How do you come to see teachers and students? Why are you dissatisfied with this way of setting questions?

　　　　Li: You should know that education has its professional ethics and one of its professional knowledge. If you are in charge, you only consider politics, but not its educational ethics and majors, then this is a complete violation of an education policy. The second question I want to ask is, what is the correct answer? Your correct answer is, is your topic really as effective as your government said? Will you have more negative effects? Let’s say a jingle. I’ll sort it out and say, "Referendum is a fake issue, and no one in the world will dump you, making Taiwan Province more isolated."

　　　　Zheng: Democratic Progressive Party used his power and his ideology to infiltrate every corner of Taiwan Province society. That is to say, today’s society in Taiwan Province has become a highly politicized environment, and there is almost no pure land in this environment. We always think that as a teacher, we all think that education and students’ classrooms are the last pure land. If there is no political interference in the campus, what hope will there be in Taiwan Province society? Unfortunately, in the past few years, in order to promote his "going to China", and even this year, they want to promote the absurd move of "joining the League", and they began to use education, using textbooks and exam questions in the church to brainwash students.

　　　　Many parents told me that this practice is to ask students to choose sides. Do you want students to start to divide blue and green in the classroom at such a young age in junior high school and high school? What is even more ridiculous is that in a junior high school in Taipei, a history teacher once asked a question a while ago. He said, Who has made no contribution to the democratization of Taiwan Province? His answer is for you to choose, including Jiang Zhongzheng, Jiang Jingguo, Lee Teng-hui and Chen Shui-bian. There are 36 children in the class, and 30 children tick Chen Shui-bian without thinking. As a result, the teacher is furious and says that the standard answer should be that Jiang Zhongzheng is not Chen Shui-bian, but the students disagree. Even junior high school children have to face political pollution like this in history class. Of course, many parents are very distressed. Many parents are helpless, that is to say, we can’t see the Yangtze River and Yellow River in history textbooks and the history of China today, and we can’t see such beautiful literature as "Red Cliff Fu", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Tang Poetry and Song Poetry" in China’s past dynasties in literature textbooks. So what is the connotation of Taiwan Province culture in the future? It was Democratic Progressive Party who extended a black hand to education in order to achieve his political goals.

　　　　Moderator: We have noticed that Xie Zhiwei, the news director of Taiwan Province, has come forward in response to the dissatisfaction of Taiwan Province people. He said that this "joining the United Nations" is not a policy of Democratic Progressive Party, but a policy of the authorities, so the authorities have the right to do so. What is the meaning behind his remarks?

　　　　Zheng: What’s the meaning behind this remark? It’s very simple, because now everyone knows all kinds of absurd actions you are doing. Your biased attitude is, in fact, firstly, a violation of "administrative neutrality". You have seriously violated all the administrative organs. You can’t interfere or participate in these issues in the "election and strike law". For example, this time, some people say that their post office violated the provisions of Articles 13 and 52 of the Referendum Law. Article 13 stipulates that the administrative organ shall not use any form to handle or entrust a referendum on various issues, that is, referendum issues. Administrative organs are not allowed to use any funds or mobilize government employees at all levels. If you violate Article 52 of the Referendum Law, the head of an administrative organ and his related personnel must be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of more than six months and less than three years. Therefore, the Taipei District Inspection Office said today that if anyone comes to report, the Taipei District Inspection Office will investigate this matter.

　　　　Moderator: According to your observation, what are the main aspects of Taiwan Province authorities’ propaganda and infiltration in promoting Taiwan Province’s entry into the United Nations this year? What are the main means?

　　　　Li: Then his methods can be roughly divided into three types. The first one is to switch from export to domestic sales. For example, he took the statue of Mazu to the United Nations and paid for some heads, because some overseas students who had been caught said how much they would pay to attend that activity, and then they took it back to Taiwan Province through this lens, giving people the feeling that many international people supported us. Just like this time, Xie Zhiwei accompanied Chen Shui-bian to those countries, and those countries simply couldn’t understand what he said. He was singing a gossiping song there, and this was also broadcast back.

　　　　The second method is overwhelming, and he does everything he can. Government vehicles have to be posted, and government officials have to post that "referendum on joining the United Nations". Now, like today’s newspaper in my hand, this is today’s newspaper. You can see that the water and electricity tariffs in the middle are also posted. This just shows that this is an absurd authority. Even worse is the headline above. What’s the headline above? He is guilty of forging documents, and he is suspected of forging documents. Why? Some old people went to collect the gold for respecting the elderly, and then he tricked these old people into putting their seals on the signature of the referendum on joining the United Nations. This is a crime of stealing seals in Taiwan Province. If you don’t tell this old man, you will use his seal to steal seals. This is a crime of forging documents, but he is lawless. Not only did he violate the referendum law, but he even violated the criminal law, forging documents and so on.

　　　　Moderator: Well, thank you today, Mr. Li, and also thank you, Professor Zheng, for your analysis of the tricks used by the Chen Shui-bian authorities to promote the "referendum on joining the United Nations" recently. Thank you. Thank you for watching. See you next time.
