Standoff bit for iphone

Sun Juanjuan, a white-collar worker in Shanghai, had been using an iPhone X for more than three years before buying an iPhone 12 immediately after Apple Inc unveiled its first smartphones with 5G connectivity in October. "I have been waiting for Apple's 5G smartphone for a long time. When the iPhone 12 was unveiled, I decided to buy one immediately. I love the green color so much," Sun said. Consumers like Sun are pushing sales of Apple to new highs in China. The United States tech giant raked in its highest ever revenue in China in the fourth quarter, driven by the popularity of its iPhone 12 series. Apple said its China revenue came in at $21.31 billion in the three months ended Dec 26, up 57 percent from a year earlier. Apple CEO Tim Cook attributed the strong performance to "more than an iPhone story", adding that its other products also contributed a lot, but he also highlighted that the iPhone 12 was crucial in fueling phone upgrades.

Army Chief Gen Manoj Naravane on Wednesday said the disengagement in Pangong Tso (lake) was a ‘win-win’ situation for both India and China and it was still a long way towards de-escalation. China had been in the habit of making small incremental moves like in the South China Sea that were not challenged but the Ladakh Standoff had shown that this strategy would not work with India and “every move will be met resolutely”, he noted. Also read: Antony calls disengagement with China a ‘surrender of rights’ “China has been in the habit of creeping forward and making very small incremental changes, where each change by itself was not very big or worthy of a very strong reaction. Because of these small incremental moves which were never contested it has been able to achieve its aims without firing a shot or without any loss of life. What has happened in the South China Sea is a very glaring example of that,” Gen. Naravane said at a webinar organised by Vivekananda International ... » Learn More about India-China | Disengagement a win-win situation, says Army Chief

How would you like to study out of a beach house today? Or amidst horses at a farm? Or at a plant nursery? Sounds baffling? Raaji Naveen and Naveen Mahesh, the founders of Beyond8 in Chennai, vouch that this is an effective way of teaching children. For them, the whole of the city is a learning space. There is no one centre. The couple is a believer and practitioner of heutagogy, which means self-determined learning. Though Chennai has a lot of alternative schools, there is no heutagogical high school, says Raaji. This led them to introduce this concept of education in Chennai last year. Students can get started on this after they complete Class VIII. “It’s an alternative to school. They can have a full time learning that helps them live meaningfully and learn things that they love,” says Naveen. NIOS, ICGSE/AS & A Levels, and GED (Common Core) are the only curricula that they currently offer. In school education, quite a bit is determined for students by those in ... » Learn More about Heard of heutagogy education? Chennai-based Beyond8, an alternative to school, tells you what it is

South Korean President Moon Jae-in said on Monday that his government is eager for talks with Japan to improve relations following years of bitter feuding over historical grievances, adding that those unresolved issues should not stand in the way of developing “future-oriented” ties. “There have been times where issues of the past weren’t separated from those of the future and became intermingled with each other. This has impeded forward-looking development,” Mr. Moon said in a nationally televised speech commemorating the anniversary of a 1919 Korean uprising against Japanese colonial rule. “The Korean government is always ready to sit down and have talks with the Japanese government,” he said. South Korea and Japan have been struggling to repair relations that sank to their lowest point in decades in 2019 following South Korean court rulings that ordered Japanese companies to pay reparations to Koreans who were forced to work in their factories during World War II.
