Jimmy Lai trial: key points from media mogul’s testimony on first day
Wed, 20 Nov 2024 16:01:48 GMT
Detained pro-democracy activist spoke for first time about charges against him under Hong Kong national security law
Jimmy Lai, the detained pro-democracy activist and media mogul who is the target of Hong Kong’s most high-profile national security case, took the stand in court on Wednesday. For the first time since he was detained in December 2020, Lai spoke publicly about the charges against him, for which he faces spending the rest of his life behind bars.
Four years after his arrest, the 77-year-old seemed older and not as strong as he used to be. His first words – swearing an oath on the Bible – were delivered hoarsely.

How to cook the perfect aloo bhorta
Wed, 20 Nov 2024 12:00:06 GMT
This traditional Bengali combination of sticky mashed spuds, onion, chilli and spices punches way above its weight. But is there a definitive version?
Bhorta is, Kolkata-native chef Asma Khan explains, the Bengali pronunciation of the Hindi word bharta, meaning mashed – it’s an important distinction, too, because, although spiced mashed vegetables, seafood or meat are found in many regions of the Indian subcontinent, bhorta is particularly dear to Bangladesh and the neighbouring Indian province of West Bengal.
Indeed, according to British Bangladeshi food writer Dina Begum, it’s the “quintessential soul food of Bangladeshi cuisine”, repopularised by post-independence efforts to rediscover the country’s culinary traditions and served with panta bhat, or fermented rice, at Pôhela Boishakh (Bengali New Year) celebrations each spring. Adiba and Arafat, the husband and wife team behind the Spice Odyssey website, write that: “In Bangladesh, a country marked by a huge chasm between the rich and the poor, the once austere mishmash of vegetables … has become the gamechanger – marking the return of the privileged to the food of their forefathers. The gradual incorporation of bhorta … as a celebratory food at home and abroad is a tale of how sharing common food as a ritual can become a marker of cultural and national identity.”

Bangladesh to seek extradition of ousted leader Sheikh Hasina from India
Mon, 18 Nov 2024 11:46:13 GMT
Interim leader Muhammad Yunus confirms plans to put former PM on trial accused of crimes against humanity
Bangladesh will seek the extradition of the former prime minister Sheikh Hasina to face trial on charges including crimes against humanity, the country’s interim leader, Muhammad Yunus, has said in a speech.
Hasina, whose autocratic regime governed Bangladesh for 15 years, was toppled in a student-led revolution in August. Since then she has been living in exile in India after fleeing the country in a helicopter as thousands of protesters overran the presidential palace.

Swedish police focus on Chinese ship after suspected undersea cable sabotage

Swedish police investigating the believed sabotage of two fibre-optic undersea cables in the Baltic Sea have said a Chinese ship off the coast of Denmark was “of interest” as Danish officials said its navy was shadowing a Chinese-registered cargo ship.
The ship, identified by Denmark as the Yi Peng 3, passed the two cables on Sunday and Monday about the time it is believed they were severed in a suspected malicious attack. The ship has been shadowed by a Danish navy vessel since it was located in waters between Sweden and Denmark.

My friend Joshua Wong is among those jailed in Hong Kong – the UK must stand up for these political prisoners | Nathan Law
Wed, 20 Nov 2024 15:25:15 GMT
I too suffered this repression. The harsh sentences handed down to democracy activists cannot go unchallenged
Joshua Wong, one of Hong Kong’s best-known pro-democracy activists, was sentenced to four years and eight months in prison on Tuesday. He received a one-third sentencing cut to that period by pleading guilty. Even so, coupled with other charges he faced for his peaceful participation in the 2019 democratic protests, he will be in prison until at least 2027.
I spent my formative years with Wong. We were both student leaders in the 2014 Umbrella Movement, and co-founded the now-dissolved youth-led political party Demosistō in 2016. He gave everything he had to support me in my bid to become the youngest legislator in Hong Kong the same year. In 2020, I departed the city; he remains. The pain of survivor’s guilt hits me every night.

Can a fluffy robot really replace a cat or dog? My weird, emotional week with an AI pet
Wed, 20 Nov 2024 10:00:01 GMT
Casio says Moflin can develop its own personality and build a rapport with its owner – and it doesn’t need food, exercise or a litter tray. But is it essentially comforting or alienating?
It looks faintly like one half of a small pair of very fluffy slippers. It squeaks and wriggles and nestles in the palm of my hand, black eyes hidden beneath a mop of silvery-white fur. It weighs about the same as a tin of soup. It doesn’t need to be fed or walked and it doesn’t use a litter tray; it’s guaranteed not to leave “gifts” on my doorstep. Which is just as well, because Moflin is about to become my pet.
Before I am entrusted with the welfare of Japan’s latest AI companion robot, I meet its developers at the Tokyo headquarters of Casio, the consumer electronics firm that launched it commercially this month, priced at 59,400 yen (about £300). “Moflin’s role is to build relationships with humans,” says Casio’s Erina Ichikawa.

However, he “hoped against hope” that Donald Trump would stop Beijing imposing its national security law on the city, and so sought to have Apple Daily’s coverage of the then president be less critical.

I Want to Talk review – Abhishek Bachchan is Mad Men-style ad man who declares war on cancer
Thu, 21 Nov 2024 04:30:36 GMT
A greater degree of setup would have given this story of a Don Draper type’s determination to beat a terminal diagnosis more dramatic heft
This drama starts promisingly enough, with a zippy, self-aggrandising voiceover introducing our protagonist Arjun (Abhishek Bachchan). He’s a Don Draper sort: works in advertising, at the top of his game, fond of walking along while throwing out pearls of wisdom and instructions to his team. “I want at least 17 seconds on the cheese pull,” he insists to a minion working on a pizza commercial. As in Mad Men, his homelife isn’t quite as assured, though he feels he’s doing a bang-up job, speaking proudly of being a weekend dad who shows up for his daughter when it matters. It’s clear, however, that pride goeth before a fall.
The fall in question here is a sudden cancer diagnosis, out of nowhere. Arjun is given 100 or so days to live. Being the kind of tenacious guy who refuses to see himself as a statistic, he determines that he will fight. Here the film begins to play into a narrative controversial in cancer-support circles: some find the idea of cancer as something that can be battled empowered. Others find it insulting, suggesting that if someone dies of cancer there is some element of not having fought hard enough, of having been a quitter in some way, rather than subject to an incurable and often deadly disease. Arjun is certainly of the view that he has been enlisted into a war that can be won through sheer force of willpower, and embarks on a series of surgeries.

Why disunity on the left spells trouble for Labour | Letters
Wed, 20 Nov 2024 16:58:00 GMT
A breakaway party of Labour leftists would only benefit the far right, warns Dr Anthony Isaacs. Plus letters from Andrew Shepherd, David Howard and Bruce Henderson
Andy Beckett correctly concludes that there is political space to the left of the Labour party (Meet the groups trying to create a new leftwing party – and channel the energy missing from Starmer’s Labour, 15 November). The question is whether there is electoral space. He notes the succession of new leftwing parties over the past 30 years, a few of which had some short-lived success, though the history of splits on the left goes back more than a century.
Nor is disillusion with Labour in power a recent phenomenon. The Guardian’s own Richard Gott stood for the Radical Alliance in the 1966 North Hull byelection. This was a chance to make a significant impact in a Labour marginal, with increasing opposition to the Vietnam war and the Wilson government’s majority hanging by a thread. In the event, there was a major swing to Labour, Gott taking less than 1% of the vote.
