[The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor will be extended to Afghanistan] Recently, the Chinese Foreign Minister and the Pakistani Foreign Minister met in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan. During the conversation, China and Pakistan jointly issued a statement that the Belt and Road Initiative and the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor will be extended to Afghanistan. Prior to this, the Taliban in Afghanistan had already made such applications when they met with senior officials from both China and Pakistan. According to previous assessments, once the Belt and Road Initiative and the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor are settled in Afghanistan, billions of dollars in infrastructure funds will be brought in, especially the construction and improvement of Afghanistan’s railway network and highway system, which will be greatly relieved. At the same time, once the infrastructure project is confirmed, it is very likely that Chinese companies will undertake the construction, which can increase many jobs for local Afghans.

• [Zhongjin Lingnan Semiconductor Substrate Project to Mass Produce by 2026]
• Zhongjin Lingnan's performance in the first quarter of 2026 was impressive, with significant year-on-year growth in revenue and net profit. The company's annual production of 860000 high-purity semiconductor substrates project is progressing smoothly, with construction starting in 2023. Currently, it has entered the trial production stage and is expected to officially enter mass production in the second half of this year. The total investment of the project is 424 million yuan, covering three major categories of gallium arsenide, indium phosphide, and germanium. Relying on independent core technology, after production, it will fill the gap in domestic high-end substrate production capacity, break the overseas monopoly, and become a new performance growth point for the enterprise.Editor/Gong Ziwei
