On the fourth storey of a haemodialysis centre in the Chinese city of Guangzhou, chronic kidney disease patients have formed a community to stitch clothes to make a living. Many of them lost their jobs after being diagnosed with end-stage renal disease, or uraemia. Unable to afford kidney transplants, they will need dialysis treatments three times a week for the rest of their lives. Baoshutang Haemodialysis Centre co-founder Dr Xie Qiang said the factory is a beacon of hope for his patients.

Two people, including a Chinese national, have been rescued 10 days after a glacial collapse caused a catastrophic flash flood disaster on the China-Nepal border. Lu Haitao, a Chinese national, became trapped in a 225-metre tunnel at the Upper Trishuli-1 Hydropower Project in Rasuwa district. He was rescued on Saturday by the Nepalese army. Aside from showing mild signs of hypothermia, Lu had no visible injuries and his vitals were stable. Another survivor, 64-year-old Chandra Shrestha, was found alive in the debris of her partially buried home. She was airlifted to a hospital in Nepal’s capital, Kathmandu, for treatment.

A decade ago, Starbucks Malaysia launched an ambitious experiment to create meaningful career opportunities for the nation’s deaf community. The initiative evolved from offering entry-level jobs into establishment of the world’s first Starbucks Signing Store in Kuala Lumpur. Now, deaf employees are even able to build long-term careers and advance to management roles. As the pilot project changed lives, the concept was expanded to 26 stores around the world. But despite the programme’s success, major communication and educational barriers remain for disabled people hoping to enter the mainstream workforce.

Since Hong Kong’s handover in 1997, the government has sought to transform the city’s education system from a colonial system focused on memorisation and exam pressure, and towards a more holistic development meant to foster lifelong learning. But decades on, competition has only grown stronger among Hong Kong’s young students, extending beyond the confines of the classroom and into their extracurricular activities. What are the factors driving this competition and what is being done to ease pressure on pupils?

After six decades of supplying restaurants across Hong Kong with high-quality, locally made fish balls, Kau Kei Food Factory is now also selling directly to customers – at a fraction of the price. Owner Anita Lee pivoted the business in 2025, opening Kau Kei’s first retail outlet in Mong Kok. The move was to let customers buy its signature fish balls without the restaurant mark-up, and to raise the brand’s profile in the heart of the city.
