    Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said in Hong Kong on Friday that China is willing to work with Pakistan and like-minded countries to enhance the unique advantages of the International Organization for Mediation (IOMed).

    When meeting with Pakistani Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohammad Ishaq Dar, who attended the signing ceremony of the Convention on the Establishment of the IOMed in Hong Kong, Wang said that China is willing to work with Pakistan and other countries to provide voluntary and efficient new options for dispute settlement for all countries, and a new platform for maintaining peace, stability, fairness and justice in the global South.

    Dar said that China’s initiative to establish the IOMed was timely and represented an important contribution to strengthening the multilateral system. He noted that the recent informal meeting of foreign ministers from Pakistan, China, and Afghanistan in Beijing was a success. Pakistan decided to accept China’s mediation proposal and elevate its diplomatic relations with Afghanistan to the ambassadorial level.

    Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said that Pakistan’s move to upgrade its diplomatic ties with Afghanistan will help improve relations, enhance trust and strengthen cooperation between the two countries.

    China supports Pakistan in assuming the rotating presidency of the United Nations Security Council in July and contributing to international peace and security, Wang added.

    Vice premier urges top scientists to scale sci-tech peaks, boost China’s self-reliance

    BEIJING, May 30 — Chinese Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang on Friday called on academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) to pioneer breakthroughs in core technologies and cultivate talent to build China into a self-reliant sci-tech powerhouse.

    Authorities were tasked with refining support mechanisms to foster an innovation-friendly ecosystem.

    The event was attended by CAS leadership, academicians, and officials of related departments.

  • MIL-OSI Security: Two Foreign Nationals Indicted for Directing Interstate Stalking and Harassment Scheme and Conspiring to Procure Sensitive U.S. Military Technology

    Source: Office of United States Attorneys

    Richard G. Frohling, Acting United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, and Bilal Essayli, United States Attorney for the Central District of California announced that federal grand juries in Milwaukee, WI and Los Angeles, CA each returned indictments charging two foreign nationals, Cui Guanghai, 43, of China, and John Miller, 63, of the United Kingdom and a U.S. lawful permanent resident, with interstate stalking and conspiracy to commit interstate stalking (Los Angeles) and conspiracy, smuggling, and violations of the Arms Export Control Act (Milwaukee).

    “As alleged, the defendants targeted a U.S. resident for exercising his constitutional right to free speech and conspired to traffic sensitive American military technology to the Chinese regime,” said Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. “This is a blatant assault on both our national security and our democratic values. This Justice Department will not tolerate foreign repression on U.S. soil, nor will we allow hostile nations to infiltrate or exploit our defense systems. We will act decisively to expose and dismantle these threats wherever they emerge.”

    “The defendants allegedly plotted to harass and interfere with an individual who criticized the actions of the People’s Republic of China while exercising their constitutionally protected free speech rights within the United States of America,” said FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino. “The same individuals also are charged with trying to obtain and export sensitive U.S. military technology to China. I want to commend the good work of the FBI and our partners in the U.S and overseas in putting a stop to these illegal activities.”

    Allegations in the Eastern District of Wisconsin

    According to court documents, beginning in November 2023, Miller and Cui solicited the procurement of U.S. defense articles, including missiles, air defense radar, drones, and cryptographic devices with associated crypto ignition keys for unlawful export from the United States to the People’s Republic of China from two individuals (Individual 5 and Individual 6).   

    In connection with the scheme, Cui and Miller discussed with Individuals 5 and 6 ways to export a cryptographic device from the United States to the People’s Republic of China, including concealing the device in a blender, small electronics, or motor starter, and shipping the device first to Hong Kong. Cui and Miller paid approximately $10,000 as a deposit for the cryptographic device via a courier in the United States and a wire transfer to a U.S. bank account.

    Allegations in the Central District of California

    According to court documents, beginning in October 2023, Cui and Miller enlisted two individuals (Individual 1 and Individual 2) inside the United States to carry out a plot to prevent the Victim from protesting President Xi’s appearance at the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in November 2023. The Victim had previously made public statements in opposition to the policies and actions of the PRC government and President Xi.

    “The indictment alleges that Chinese foreign actors targeted a victim in our nation because he criticized the Chinese government and its president,” said U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli for the Central District of California. “My office will continue to use all legal methods available to hold accountable foreign nationals engaging in criminal activity on our soil.”

    Unbeknownst to Cui and Miller, Individual 1 and Individual 2 were affiliated with and acting at the direction of the FBI.

    In the weeks leading up to the APEC summit, Cui and Miller directed and coordinated an interstate scheme to surveil the Victim, to install a tracking device on the Victim’s car, to slash the tires on the Victim’s car, and to purchase and destroy a pair of artistic statues created by the Victim depicting President Xi and President Xi’s wife.

    A similar scheme took place in the spring of 2025, after the Victim announced that he planned to make public an online video feed depicting two new artistic statues of President Xi and his wife. In connection with these plots, Cui and Miller paid two other individuals (Individual 3 and Individual 4), approximately $36,500 to convince the Victim to desist from the online display of the statues. Unbeknownst to Cui and Miller, Individual 3 and Individual 4 were also affiliated with and acting at the direction of the FBI.

    If convicted, Cui and Miller face the following maximum penalties: five years for conspiracy; five years for interstate stalking; twenty years for violation of the Arms Export Control Act; ten years for smuggling.

    The FBI is investigating the case.  The United States is coordinating with Serbian authorities regarding the pending extraditions of Cui and Miller in Serbia.

    Assistant U.S. Attorneys Benjamin Taibleson for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, and David Ryan and Amanda B. Elbogen for the Central District of California, along with Trial Attorneys Leslie Esbrook and Menno Goedman of the National Security Division’s Counterintelligence and Export Control Section are prosecuting the cases, with valuable assistance provided by the Justice Department’s Office of International Affairs.

    An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Tertiary Education – Te Pūkenga continues strong growth in international education amidst ongoing sector change

    Source: Te Pukenga

    Thursday 29 May 2025 – Te Pūkenga continues strong growth in international education amidst ongoing sector change
    Te Pūkenga – New Zealand Institute of Skills and Technology continues its growth trajectory in international student numbers, with enrolments, revenue, and international partnerships, all increasing strongly.
    Te Pūkenga Chief Executive Gus Gilmore acknowledged the hard work of staff in achieving the results which include increases in international student numbers from 2,861 EFTS at the end of 2022, when polytechnics transitioned into Te Pūkenga, to 6,873 EFTS at year end 2024. At the same time, international revenue has increased nearly 60% from 2023 to 2025.
    “Despite ongoing changes and uncertainty for our staff including almost 18 months of working towards disestablishment of Te Pūkenga and working to stand-up new entities, our international student numbers increased almost 30% between 2023 and 2024. This year so far, we are growing at 10.5% compared to last year.”
    While international revenue was $187 million pre-Covid, it dropped to $47.5m million in 2022 post-pandemic. Te Pūkenga then accelerated the big task of building back from pandemic disruptions and border closures with revenue rebounding to $136 million in 2024. The 2025 forecast is $159 million.
    “To be within less than 15% striking distance of pre-Covid numbers given the massive change the sector has been going through is a testament to the hard work of our teams, the quality of our programmes, growing global recognition of the importance of applied learning, and the strength of our institutes of technology and polytechnic brands offshore.”
    International student growth is occurring throughout the country, including in the regions. This includes MIT up 25% (82 EFTS), Unitec up 20% (176 EFTS), Wintec up 44% (213 EFTS), Toi Ohomai up 13% (60 EFTS), NMIT up 30% (60 EFTS), and Ara up 16% (57 EFTS).
    “Our focus continues to be on the delivery of quality education for all our students while supporting our divisions to promote the New Zealand vocational education and training sector offshore. As part of this, we are working with government agencies and sector stakeholders on building a stronger New Zealand brand for applied learning globally, and addressing immigration challenges so we can reduce barriers for international students choosing New Zealand as their study destination of choice,” says Mr Gilmore.
    In addition, Te Pūkenga continues to actively expand and secure new institutional arrangements with partners from across the globe, including with international governments. These partnerships are critical pipelines for ongoing growth in student enrolments as well as broader education cooperation and sector resilience.
    “These arrangements lay the groundwork for sustained future growth through mutual academic collaboration, academic exchange and student mobility. Critically, they strengthen our standing and reputation as a vocational education and training partner and destination, contributing to the revitalisation of New Zealand’s international education sector and economy.”
    The large majority of international students across Te Pūkenga divisions come from Asia with India (49%), Sri Lanka (11%), and China (10%) the top three markets. We are also working to diversify student market sources.
    “International students make a significant contribution socially and culturally to our institutes, campuses and student body. The international connections and understanding they help build are invaluable for a small island nation dependent on international trade and investment.”
    The contribution of international student revenue to financial viability is increasingly more important as institutes of technology and polytechnic divisions are stood up as independent entities from January 2026.

  • MIL-OSI: KIS Finance Unpacks the Global Ripple Effects of Trump’s Presidency in “The Trump Legacy” Analysis

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    London, UK , May 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — KIS Finance has published a comprehensive article titled “The Trump Legacy: The Most Significant President,” offering a critical examination of the far-reaching effects of Donald Trump’s presidency on global economics, politics, and democratic institutions.

    The article delves into the consequences of Trump’s aggressive trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs at levels not seen in nearly a century, which have sparked unprecedented trade wars and economic uncertainty worldwide. It highlights the resulting volatility in the U.S. dollar, a decline in foreign investment, and the erosion of trust in American financial markets.

    Beyond economics, the piece explores the geopolitical shifts prompted by Trump’s foreign policy decisions, notably the retreat from traditional alliances and the inadvertent empowerment of rival nations like China. It also addresses concerns over democratic backsliding, citing instances of institutional undermining and the propagation of misinformation.

    “The Trump Legacy” serves as a crucial resource for understanding the lasting implications of Trump’s leadership on the international stage. It underscores the importance of informed analysis in navigating the complexities of contemporary global affairs.

  • MIL-OSI USA: With Over $42 BILLION In Vital Broadband Funding Still Held Up By Trump Administration, Leader Schumer, Ranking Member Cantwell, And Senator Luján Demand Admin Stop The Delays & Immediately Release The Funding Into American Communities; Senators Say 25 Million Americans Still Lack High-Speed Internet As Bipartisan Funding Lingers

    Washington, D.C. – Today, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), along with Commerce Committee Ranking Member Maria Cantwell (D-WA), and Senator Ben Ray Luján (D-NM), sent the following letter to Commerce Secretary Lutnick and President Trump demanding that the Commerce Department immediately release the $42 billion allocated for the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) Program.

    Today, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), along with Ranking Member of the Commerce Committee, Maria Cantwell (D-WA), and Ranking Member of the Senate Commerce Committee’s Subcommittee on Telecommunications and Media, Ben Ray Luján (D-NM), sent the following letter to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and President Trump demanding the immediate release the $42 billion allocated for the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) Program as part of the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. This program was designed to help our country on its path to creating universal access to high-speed internet – vital for remote work, education, job training and applications, telehealth, emergency services, and more. With the endless delays to get the crucial funding out the door and into American communities, 25 million people across our country risk going without access to the internet. 

    “States have spent years developing implementation plans under the BEAD program to reach every American with high-speed internet access. These plans reflect local needs, technical realities, and the bipartisan intent of Congress,” the Senators wrote. “States are ready to put shovels in the ground and have been waiting for months to get started connecting communities and building networks that will support the industries of tomorrow. Additional delays and onerous changes to the program at this stage threaten to further stall urgently needed deployment and leave communities behind.”

    The Senators also noted that beyond everyday applications of high-speed internet, this money is also essential to ensuring that America is able to maintain its competitive edge over countries such as China. Al systems – including data centers, chip manufacturing facilities and more – require access to power and internet. Without proper broadband networks in place, communities will not be able to house these job-creating facilities. Our government must work to ensure that all areas in our country – especially rural ones – are able to contribute to America’s innovative edge and technological dominance. Without BEAD funding getting out the door, these rural communities risk falling either further behind. 

    States have spent months developing plans to break ground and build high-speed, scalable, and reliable networks everywhere. The Trump administration should not throttle this process or delay it just to give more money to the world’s richest man. The Senators urge the immediate and swift release of all BEAD program funding.

    Dear Sec. Lutnick and President Trump,

    Congress created the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) Program as part of the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to finish the job of connecting everyone and building high-speed, scalable, and reliable networks everywhere. For six months, states have been waiting to break ground on scores of projects, held back only by the Commerce Department’s bureaucratic delays. If states are forced to redo or rework their plans, they will not only miss this year’s construction season but next year’s as well, delaying broadband deployment by years. That’s why we urge the Administration to move swiftly to approve state plans, and release the $42 billion allocated to the states by the BEAD Program. 

    Universal access to high-speed internet is essential for jobs, education, and telehealth—and also for the bandwidth-hungry innovation economy, from artificial intelligence and advanced robotics to smart manufacturing and semiconductor production. Further delay means 25 million Americans continue to wait for high-speed internet and the economic benefits it brings. It also means that we risk falling behind China, which is aggressively building out digital infrastructure to support its AI, advanced manufacturing, and semiconductor ambitions. 

    States have already developed plans to address these needs, and restarting or slowing down the process will only hold back progress. States must maintain the flexibility to choose the highest quality broadband options, rather than be forced by bureaucrats in Washington to funnel funds to Elon Musk’s Starlink, which lacks the scalability, reliability, and speed of fiber or other terrestrial broadband solutions.

    High-speed, reliable, and scalable connectivity is essential for jobs, education, and telehealth. It’s also the backbone for the advanced industries of today and tomorrow. AI systems require massive volumes of data and low-latency networks to operate effectively. Data centers, smart warehouses, robotic assembly lines, and chip fabrication plants all depend on fast, stable, and scalable bandwidth. If we want these job-creating facilities built throughout the United States, including rural areas, we must ensure the infrastructure—including high-speed internet networks—is in place to support them. If we want AI developed and deployed in the United States, if we want to win the race for semiconductor dominance, if we want the next generation of manufacturing jobs to be created here, then we must act now—and we must build the high-speed, high-capacity networks those technologies demand.

    States have spent years developing implementation plans under the BEAD program to reach every American with high-speed internet access. These plans reflect local needs, technical realities, and the bipartisan intent of Congress. States are ready to put shovels in the ground and have been waiting for months to get started connecting communities and building networks that will support the industries of tomorrow. Additional delays and onerous changes to the program at this stage threaten to further stall urgently needed deployment and leave communities behind. 

    We urge you to move forward with the submitted BEAD plans and deliver on the promise of the BEAD program without further delay. Every American and every community needs access to reliable, scalable, and high-speed internet if we are to remain the world’s innovation leader.

    LANZHOU, May 30 (Xinhua) — Chinese Vice President Han Zheng has called for eliminating disunity and misunderstanding through dialogue and communication to promote harmonious coexistence among different civilizations.

    Speaking at the opening ceremony of the 4th Dialogue on Exchanges and Mutual Learning among Civilizations in Dunhuang, northwest China’s Gansu Province, on Friday, Han Zheng said exchanges and mutual learning among different civilizations have injected strong impetus into the progress of human civilization and peaceful development throughout the world.

    “We should show mutual respect and promote mutual success, jointly advocate for respect for the diversity of world civilizations, promote each civilization to preserve its unique beauty, and all civilizations to create harmonious diversity together,” Han Zheng said.

    The Vice Chairman of the PRC pointed out that Chinese-style modernization, as a new form of development of human civilization and mutually enriching with other civilizations, brings unique wisdom to the development of world civilizations.

    China will firmly stand on the right side of history and on the side of human progress, adhere to multilateralism with other countries, actively implement the Global Civilization Initiative, and advance in-depth and practical cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative, Han added.

    The dialogue is attended by about 400 people, including political leaders, scientists, heads of international and non-governmental organizations from different countries.

    Delegates unanimously noted that China brings stability and certainty to the world through its own development. The global initiatives put forward by China, including the Global Civilization Initiative, not only promote mutual understanding and mutual learning among different civilizations, but also lay a solid foundation for building a new type of international order based on harmonious coexistence and mutually beneficial cooperation among all countries, the participants in the dialogue said. –0–

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Beijing hosts conference to mark 120th anniversary of American journalist E. Snow’s birth

    BEIJING, May 30 (Xinhua) — A conference dedicated to the 120th anniversary of the birth of American journalist Edgar Snow was held at Peking University on Friday.

    E. Snow was born in 1905 to an ordinary farming family in Missouri. In 1936, when China was engulfed in internal conflict and faced foreign aggression, E. Snow traveled to the remote headquarters of the Communist Party of China (CPC) in Shaanxi Province (Northwest China), where he conducted extensive interviews with top party leaders, including the late Chinese leader Mao Zedong.

    Snow’s own reporting resulted in Red Star Over China, published a year later. It provided not only the West but also China itself with a rare and authentic account of the Chinese Red Army, its leadership, and its unwavering commitment to improving the lives of the Chinese people.

    After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, E. Snow visited China three times and was warmly received by its top leaders. After his visits, he never ceased to worry about China, firmly supported the just cause of the Chinese people, and actively promoted the development of friendly relations between the PRC and the United States.

    Speaking at the opening ceremony of the conference, Fu Hua, director general of Xinhua News Agency, said that Snow was a sincere friend of the Chinese people, an envoy of China-US relations and a respected journalist.

    “Through his cross-border and cross-cultural journalism practice, E. Snow has provided the world with an accurate, multi-dimensional and comprehensive picture of China,” Fu Hua said.

    “The values embedded in Snow’s work—honesty, curiosity, courage in the face of political pressure—are values that need to be affirmed, renewed, even strengthened, to truly honor his memory,” said Samuel Colin MacLean, a relative of Snow and a fellow at Harvard’s Fairbank Center for China Studies.

    “E. Snow believed that only honest, unvarnished and uncensored communication could bridge the gap between our countries and prevent unnecessary conflicts,” noted S.K. MacLean.

    This year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. In this regard, Sun Hua, director of the Edgar Snow China Research Center at Peking University, noted that “Red Star Over China” played a key role in popularizing the CPC’s idea of forming a united front against Japanese aggression.

    Sun Hua explained that as a result of Snow’s work, teams of U.S. representatives, including military observers, went to northern Shaanxi to support China’s anti-fascist efforts. “Snow’s book not only helped unite the Chinese people, but also played an important role in mobilizing international support, including assistance from the United States and Britain,” he said.

    “Let us pass on the spirit of E. Snow from generation to generation, overcoming not only geographical distances but also ideological differences, promoting cultural and humanitarian exchanges and mutual learning between different countries and regions,” Fu Hua said.

    The event, jointly organized by Peking University and the Xinhua Research Institute, was attended by relatives and close friends of E. Snow, as well as experienced journalists and experts in E. Snow studies and international communications.

    During the event, guests discussed how China can focus on building a more effective international communications system, and thematic sub-forums discussed topics such as “Introducing the Real China to the World” and “Training Personnel and the Legacy of E. Snow’s Spirit.” –0–

  • MIL-OSI Security: Two Foreign Nationals Indicted for Plot to Silence U.S. Dissident and Smuggle U.S. Military Technology to China

    Source: United States Department of Justice Criminal Division

    Defendants Charged in Los Angeles and Milwaukee with Interstate Stalking, Arms Export Violations, and Smuggling

    Federal grand juries in Milwaukee and Los Angeles each returned indictments charging two foreign nationals, Cui Guanghai, 43, of China, and John Miller, 63, of the United Kingdom and a U.S. lawful permanent resident, with interstate stalking and conspiracy to commit interstate stalking (Los Angeles) and conspiracy, smuggling, and violations of the Arms Export Control Act (Milwaukee).

    “As alleged, the defendants targeted a U.S. resident for exercising his constitutional right to free speech and conspired to traffic sensitive American military technology to the Chinese regime,” said Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. “This is a blatant assault on both our national security and our democratic values. This Justice Department will not tolerate foreign repression on U.S. soil, nor will we allow hostile nations to infiltrate or exploit our defense systems. We will act decisively to expose and dismantle these threats wherever they emerge.”

    “The defendants allegedly plotted to harass and interfere with an individual who criticized the actions of the People’s Republic of China while exercising their constitutionally protected free speech rights within the United States of America,” said FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino. “The same individuals also are charged with trying to obtain and export sensitive U.S. military technology to China. I want to commend the good work of the FBI and our partners in the U.S and overseas in putting a stop to these illegal activities.”

    Allegations in the Central District of California

    According to court documents, beginning in October 2023, Cui and Miller enlisted two individuals (Individual 1 and Individual 2) inside the United States to carry out a plot to prevent the Victim from protesting President Xi’s appearance at the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in November 2023. The victim had previously made public statements in opposition to the policies and actions of the PRC government and President Xi.

    “The indictment alleges that Chinese foreign actors targeted a victim in our nation because he criticized the Chinese government and its president,” said U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli for the Central District of California. “My office will continue to use all legal methods available to hold accountable foreign nationals engaging in criminal activity on our soil.”

    Unbeknownst to Cui and Miller, Individual 1 and Individual 2 were affiliated with and acting at the direction of the FBI.

    In the weeks leading up to the APEC summit, Cui and Miller directed and coordinated an interstate scheme to surveil the victim, to install a tracking device on the victim’s car, to slash the tires on the victim’s car, and to purchase and destroy a pair of artistic statues created by the victim depicting President Xi and President Xi’s wife.

    A similar scheme took place in the spring of 2025, after the victim announced that he planned to make public an online video feed depicting two new artistic statues of President Xi and his wife. In connection with these plots, Cui and Miller paid two other individuals (Individual 3 and Individual 4), approximately $36,500 to convince the victim to desist from the online display of the statues. Unbeknownst to Cui and Miller, Individual 3 and Individual 4 were also affiliated with and acting at the direction of the FBI.

    Allegations in the Eastern District of Wisconsin

    According to court documents, beginning in November 2023, Miller and Cui solicited the procurement of U.S. defense articles, including missiles, air defense radar, drones, and cryptographic devices with associated crypto ignition keys for unlawful export from the United States to the People’s Republic of China from two individuals (Individual 5 and Individual 6).  

    In connection with the scheme, Cui and Miller discussed with Individuals 5 and 6 ways to export a cryptographic device from the United States to the People’s Republic of China, including concealing the device in a blender, small electronics, or motor starter, and shipping the device first to Hong Kong. Cui and Miller paid approximately $10,000 as a deposit for the cryptographic device via a courier in the United States and a wire transfer to a U.S. bank account.

    ***

    If convicted, Cui and Miller face the following maximum penalties: five years in prison for conspiracy; five years in prison for interstate stalking; 20 years in prison for violation of the Arms Export Control Act; and 10 years in prison for smuggling.

    The FBI is investigating the case. The United States is coordinating with Serbian authorities regarding the pending extraditions of Cui and Miller from Serbia.

    Assistant U.S. Attorneys David Ryan and Amanda B. Elbogen for the Central District of California, Benjamin Taibleson for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, and Trial Attorneys Leslie Esbrook and Menno Goedman of the National Security Division’s Counterintelligence and Export Control Section are prosecuting the cases, with valuable assistance provided by the Justice Department’s Office of International Affairs.

    An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

    ABUJA, May 30 (Xinhua) — The death toll from devastating floods triggered by heavy rains in Nigeria’s north-central Niger state has risen to at least 88, local authorities said on Friday.

    At least 67 more bodies have been recovered during ongoing rescue operations in Mokwa Local Government Area, bringing the death toll up from the previous figure of 21 reported on Thursday, May 29, according to Ibrahim Isah Hussaini, head of operations at the Niger State Emergency Management Agency.

    “Their numbers continue to grow. However, according to the latest count, 88 bodies have already been found,” he said during the rescue operation, adding that more people were still missing.

    Heavy rains that hit Mokwa late Wednesday flooded and washed away more than 50 residential buildings, some of which were occupied at the time, I. Isah Hussaini told reporters on Thursday.

    Earlier this week, the Nigerian Meteorological Agency issued a forecast warning of thunderstorms and heavy rainfall in the central part of the country, including Niger State. The agency said more rainfall was expected in the next 48 hours, with localized showers also possible in the southern region. –0–

  • MIL-OSI Canada: Remarks by Minister of National Defence David McGuinty at CANSEC 2025

    Source: Government of Canada News

    Check Against Delivery

    Vice-Chief of the Defence Staff, Lieutenant-General Kelsey, 
    Members of the Canadian Armed Forces, 
    International delegates, 
    Service members from our Allies and partners, 
    Members of the diplomatic corps, 

    Fellow parliamentarians, 

    And finally, industry partners,

    Good morning everyone, bonjour à tous.

    It’s a privilege to join you for this year’s CANSEC. My thanks to Christyn Cianfarani and everyone at CADSI for organizing this important event, and for bringing us together.

    It is especially an honour to be here as CANSEC is hosted in the electoral district I represent. I want to welcome you all to Ottawa South.

    Many of the companies in this room have a home in the National Capital Region. With over 10,000 workers, Ottawa’s defence sector is a major employer. We have talent working in all aspects of the industry from tech, aerospace, and manufacturing. This is my first major engagement as Minister of National Defence.

    Many of you are new faces—but I’m looking forward to getting to know you, and learning more about how your work strengthens Canada’s defence and security.

    Building a business is difficult. It comes with a lot of uncertainty and financial risk. Without you taking on that risk, we wouldn’t have the equipment and services needed to keep Canadians safe.

    So, thank you, for getting to work, thank you for employing Canadians, and thank you for growing our economy.

    For those of you here today in uniform…
    The people who commit their lives to service…
    Who take on the hardest tasks in the toughest conditions…
    Who are ready at the drop of a hat… 
    Who deserve the best from those of us who support them— 

    Thank you for choosing to serve Canada.

    I’ve been struck by the deep sense of shared purpose I’ve seen—across government and industry—to strengthen our defence capabilities, and ensure our people are equipped for today’s challenges and tomorrow’s threats.

    We have a clear direction, and we’ve made a decision. We’ve decided to act without delay, in close cooperation with our industry partners.

    The global security environment today is volatile and uncertain.

    Russia’s illegal and immoral invasion of Ukraine has stretched into a third, brutal year. China’s imperial ambitions are increasingly clear—in its military buildup and its assertive posture toward other international powers.

    And, states like North Korea and Iran continue to act as destabilizing forces in the Indo-Pacific and the Middle East.

    Canada is not immune to these threats.

    We face real challenges—both military and non-military—that demand an equally strong and coordinated response.

    This includes growing activity in the Arctic, where our competitors have shown little hesitation in challenging Canada’s territorial sovereignty.

    As well as the threats posed by emerging technologies that are changing the very nature of war.

    And we get it.

    We are moving quickly to ensure our military has the tools to defend our country and continent—while remaining an engaged, reliable partner abroad.

    And here is the key message: this work can only be done in partnership with you. 

    It is work that needs the full spectrum of equipment and services offered in this room—from quantum computing to shields to ammunition.

    A new government was elected some four short weeks ago, and having run on a platform to strengthen Canada’s sovereignty and security, your government is moving to take immediate and decisive action to rebuild Canada’s defence capacity, rearm the Canadian Armed Forces, and invest in the Canadian defence industry.

    The commitments we are making will support skilled and reliable jobs and stimulate growth in our communities across the country—including in more than 3,000 communities where the Canadian Armed Forces are present.

    Already, in Canada, defence accounts for two hundred seventy-six thousand direct and indirect jobs.

    Let’s be practical: we see this with the opening of the new B Jetty in CFB Esquimalt, which created close to 1,300 jobs during its construction.

    We see this in our Future Aircrew Training program, an $11.2 billion investment in training the next generation of Canadian aviators – which will create or maintain 3,400 jobs annually across Canada.

    We see this with our River-Class Destroyer project, which will sustain over 5,000 jobs over the next 15 years, many of them in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

    And by sourcing Canadian-made steel, aluminum, and critical minerals, we will multiply the economic benefits and strengthen local industries— like the aluminium industry in Québec.

    But that’s not enough. I share in your ambition to do more.

    Now is the time to scale up our production here at home. Now is the time for government and industry to work together.

    Now is the time for your government to invest in you—to capitalize on the immense and growing defence opportunities.

    Canada’s defence is bolstered by the strong relationships we have with our Allies and international partners.

    We have over fifty international delegates attending CANSEC this year – a testament to the high calibre of the Canadian defence industry.

    And as we strengthen these international ties, there will be opportunities for industry to help us deliver on shared priorities.

    In November, Canada and Australia signed an agreement to work together on researching emerging missile threats, with a focus on countering hypersonic weapon systems.

    And, earlier this year, Prime Minister Carney announced further cooperation with the Australians—investing over six billion dollars in a partnership to develop advanced Over the Horizon Radar capabilities.

    After all, the Canadian Arctic belongs to Canada.

    I want to increase the work our defence industry does with our Allies and partners.

    My promise to you is that I will be: 

    Unafraid to carry the flag of the Canadian defence industry around the globe. 

    Unafraid to champion the innovative and class leading technology of Canadian companies. 

    Unafraid to help you compete on the world stage.

    Our defence industry is world-class.

    Innovative, highly skilled, and globally competitive.

    Yet we need to better harness what you bring to the table.

    In previous engagements between National Defence and industry, many of you raised concerns—about friction points, timelines, and the need for clear, consistent guidance.

    I want to reassure you that your comments have been heard.

    Our forthcoming Defence Industrial Strategy will put your insights into action.

    We’ll build a secure, resilient industrial base that supports long-term defence goals.

    Canada has planned to triple defence spending from 2014 levels by 2030—but, your government is moving to accelerate this.

    Your government will invest more to acquire the necessary equipment the CAF needs to be successful in carrying out its missions.

    We’re also taking real steps to improve how we buy, maintain, and upgrade our equipment. That includes streamlining our requirements and speeding up delivery—so CAF members get the tools they need, faster.

    And we’re moving toward a more regular, ongoing approach to defence planning. One that helps us stay on top of global threats, track our progress, and fix gaps before they grow.

    I don’t need to remind you that the world is changing fast—and this new approach will help us keep up. It will also give more consistency and predictability to our industry partners.

    Having a strong, well-equipped military, supported by a strong defence industrial base, is top priority for me, for the Prime Minister, and for your government—as demonstrated by the PM’s appointment of Canada’s first-ever Secretary of State for Defence Procurement, Stephen Fuhr.

    And as your government promises to do more, we ask that you do more.

    We simply cannot afford to wait a decade for the capabilities we need today.

    We need you to help us meet our ambitious timelines.

    Canadians have a legacy of mobilizing quickly when times get tough.

    During the Second World War, we went from just six ships to the third-largest navy in the world.

    We can—and we will—recapture that same innovative spirit.

    By procuring new equipment we can meet modern challenges.

    But, we need people.

    We need soldiers, aviators, and sailors.

    The people that make up the Canadian Armed Forces are our greatest asset. Without them, we wouldn’t be able to accomplish anything we set out to do.

    Last fiscal year, we surpassed our recruitment goals, bringing in over 6,700 new Regular Force members.

    That’s a 55% increase from the year before.

    And we will build on this success and grow our recruitment numbers even further.

    We’re going to do that by making it easier to serve, by building more housing units on bases, by expanding access to childcare, by providing better training, better equipment, and meaningful opportunities for career growth.

    And by building a culture rooted in dignity, inclusion, and respect for everyone who serves.
    We ask a hell of a lot of our military members and their families. 
    We ask them to be apart for extended periods of time. 
    We ask them to carry out dangerous missions. 
    In fact, we ask them to put the safety of others before their own—in defence of peace, freedom, and democracy.

    That is a lot to ask.

    And no matter the task, they carry out their duties with the utmost skill, dedication, and professionalism.

    To the Canadian Armed Forces members listening: you are simply second to none.

    To conclude we’re ready to work with you to bring this vision for defence, and for Canada’s defence industry, to life. In fact, no government can do this without you.

    Without your risk taking.

    Without your creativity.

    Without your entrepreneurship.

    Our cooperation will ensure our Armed Forces members have everything they need to protect our country and those who call it home.

    And reaffirm Canada’s position as a reliable and valuable partner on the international stage.

    We are seized with the urgency of this task—and I know you are too. Our country is calling on us to take on this responsibility in the defence of Canadians, their security and sovereignty.

    Thank you. Merci.

  • MIL-OSI USA: Warner, Colleagues Call on DHS to Prioritize Cybersecurity, Reestablish Cyber Safety Review Board

    US Senate News:

    Source: United States Senator for Commonwealth of Virginia Mark R Warner
    WASHINGTON – U.S. Sen. Mark R. Warner (D-VA), Vice Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, joined by U.S. Sens. Ron Wyden (D-OR), a member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), both members of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs, wrote to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem urging her to reestablish the Cyber Safety Review Board (CSRB) after the Trump administration dismissed members earlier this year.
    The CSRB, established in 2022 under President Biden, convenes cybersecurity experts from across multiple government agencies and the private sector to investigate serious cybersecurity breaches and make recommendations for businesses, government agencies, and individuals to better protect themselves. In January of this year, the board was disbanded.
    The senators wrote, “The CSRB played a vital role in U.S. national security carrying out post-incident reviews and providing information and making recommendations to improve public and private sector cyber security. Therefore, we urge you to swiftly reconstitute the Board with qualified leaders to shape our nation’s cyber response.”
    In their letter, the senators highlighted the key work that CSRB has done to investigate some of the most serious cyber incidents our country has faced, including Salt Typhoon, a breach believed to be perpetrated by the People’s Republic of China (PRC) that compromised U.S. and global telecommunications infrastructure.
    “Against the backdrop of repeated insistence by this Administration on the need to leverage private sector and external expertise in government, the decision to dismantle this successful collaboration between the federal government and the private sector is particularly confounding,” the senators continued. “The CSRB has spearheaded crucial fact-finding efforts following cyber incidents, and developed recommendations and reports reflecting lessons learned following some of the most serious cyber incidents of the past few years, such as the Microsoft Exchange Online intrusion, the SolarWinds hack, and most recently (until the CSRB’s dissolution) the Salt Typhoon campaign against U.S telecommunications infrastructure.”
    The senators concluded, “As we have said before, inadequate cyber security practices put our economy, our national security and even lives at risk. The January dismissal of CSRB members, and continued uncertainty about the future role of the Board, has undermined cyber defense preparations for public and private entities across the United States. In this age of great innovation, we cannot afford to see our private or public systems compromised by malicious actors. You have had more than four months to reestablish this Board to conduct this critical work – DHS leadership and CISA must work together to immediately reinstate the Board as a crucial part of America’s cyber defense infrastructure.”
    A copy of letter is available here and text is below.
    Dear Secretary Noem:
    We write to you today with regard to the need to act to reestablish the Cyber Safety Review Board (“CSRB” or “Board”). As members of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence or the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, we extremely concerned with ensuring that America’s intelligence community, law enforcement agencies, state and local governments, and businesses have access to the best tools and resources to prepare for, and protect themselves against, ongoing cyber threats facing our nation. The CSRB played a vital role in U.S. national security carrying out post-incident reviews and providing information and making recommendations to improve public and private sector cyber security. Therefore, we urge you to swiftly reconstitute the Board with qualified leaders to shape our nation’s cyber response.
    As chartered, the CSRB is composed of 20 standing members, with additional members appointed on a case-by-case basis for the purpose of specific investigations. All members bring expertise from both the public and private sector, and are to be selected on the basis of significant professional and technical expertise and regardless of political affiliation. This structure serves to create a body with a deep well of cyber security capabilities and knowledge that can conduct thorough reviews of cyber incidents and provide trusted, fact-based recommendations on how businesses, individuals, and agencies across all layers of government can better protect themselves.
    When building cyber security capabilities, the software and IT ecosystem benefits tremendously from transparent, accessible, and rigorous research and forensics. Against the backdrop of repeated insistence by this Administration on the need to leverage private sector and external expertise in government, the decision to dismantle this successful collaboration between the federal government and the private sector is particularly confounding.
    The CSRB has spearheaded crucial fact-finding efforts following cyber incidents, and developed recommendations and reports reflecting lessons learned following some of the most serious cyber incidents of the past few years, such as the Microsoft Exchange Online intrusion, the SolarWinds hack, and most recently (until the CSRB’s dissolution) the Salt Typhoon campaign against U.S telecommunications infrastructure.  
    These comprehensive and incredibly fact-intensive investigations have provided invaluable transparency and lessons for the wider software and IT sectors. For instance, the CSRB’s review of the 2023 Microsoft cyber incident, recently cited by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard when presenting the Annual Threat Assessment at the March 25, 2025 SSCI open hearing, identified several operational and strategic lapses that contributed to this intrusion, with recommendations around authentication, logging, and public communication around security incidents that benefited the entire ecosystem.
    As we have noted, the CSRB had been actively investigating potentially the most expansive and impactful cyber security breach in U.S. history: the unprecedented compromises of U.S. and global telecommunications infrastructure by threat actors associated with the People’s Republic of China, widely referred to as “Salt Typhoon.” However, the CSRB’s investigation into the Salt Typhoon compromises of U.S. telecommunication firms, launched in 2024, was effectively terminated on January 20, 2025 and is depriving the public of a fuller accounting of the origin, scope, scale, and severity of these compromises. It is essential that the U.S. develop a complete and thorough understanding of the factors that contributed to the success of these intrusions – including clear root-cause analyses of each successful penetration – and present key recommendations for the telecommunications sector to better protect itself against similarly complex and large-scale compromises by future threat actors.
    As we have said before, inadequate cyber security practices put our economy, our national security and even lives at risk. The January dismissal of CSRB members, and continued uncertainty about the future role of the Board, has undermined cyber defense preparations for public and private entities across the United States. In this age of great innovation, we cannot afford to see our private or public systems compromised by malicious actors. You have had more than four months to reestablish this Board to conduct this critical work – DHS leadership and CISA must work together to immediately reinstate the Board as a crucial part of America’s cyber defense infrastructure.
    Thank you in advance for your prompt attention to this important issue. It is our hope that we can work together to continue developing a robust cyber security infrastructure that protects all Americans.
    Sincerely,

  • MIL-OSI USA: Hawley Urges DOJ to Investigate Chinese Automotive Company for National Security Breaches, Export Violations

    US Senate News:

    Source: United States Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo)
    Today, U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, urging the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate TuSimple Holdings – a Chinese autonomous trucking company – for potential violations of U.S. export controls, unauthorized transfers of sensitive technology to the People’s Republic of China, and any associated breaches of national security.
    In the letter, Senator Hawley wrote, “According to recent investigative reports, TuSimple systematically shared proprietary data, source code, and autonomous driving technologies with Chinese state-linked entities, in blatant disregard of a 2022 national security agreement with the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS). These reports also revealed communications from TuSimple personnel inside China requesting the shipment of sensitive Nvidia AI chips and detailed records showing ‘deep and longstanding ties’ with Chinese military-affiliated manufacturers. To date, TuSimple has not faced serious consequences for sharing American intellectual property with China.”
    He continued, “If the reports about TuSimple are accurate, they represent not just a violation of export law, but a breach of national trust and a direct threat to American technological leadership.  The American people deserve to know how and why a supposedly U.S.-based company was allowed to serve as a conduit for the transfer of sensitive innovations to the Chinese Communist Party.”
    Senator Hawley concluded, “I urge the Department to act swiftly and without hesitation. Any individual or entity found to have violated our laws must be held fully accountable.”

    May 28, 2025
    The Honorable Pam BondiAttorney GeneralU.S. Department of Justice950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NWWashington, DC 20530
    Dear Attorney General Bondi,
    I write to urge the Department of Justice to open a formal investigation into TuSimple Holdings Inc., a Chinese autonomous trucking company, for potential violations of U.S. export controls, unauthorized transfers of sensitive technology to the People’s Republic of China, and any associated breaches of national security.
    According to recent investigative reports, TuSimple systematically shared proprietary data, source code, and autonomous driving technologies with Chinese state-linked entities, in blatant disregard of a 2022 national security agreement with the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS)[1]  These reports also revealed communications from TuSimple personnel inside China requesting the shipment of sensitive Nvidia AI chips and detailed records showing “deep and longstanding ties” with Chinese military-affiliated manufacturers. To date, TuSimple has not faced serious consequences for sharing American intellectual property with China.
    If the reports about TuSimple are accurate, they represent not just a violation of export law, but a breach of national trust and a direct threat to American technological leadership.  The American people deserve to know how and why a supposedly U.S.-based company was allowed to serve as a conduit for the transfer of sensitive innovations to the Chinese Communist Party.  I urge the Department to act swiftly and without hesitation. Any individual or entity found to have violated our laws must be held fully accountable.
    As you conduct your investigation, please consider the following questions:
    1. Did TuSimple provide protected information to Hydron, Foton, BAIC Group, or any other affiliated Chinese entity?2. What steps has the Department of Justice taken to ensure that Bot Auto—a new, Texas-based self-driving truck company staffed with former TuSimple employees and backed by Chinese capital—does not engage in similar behavior?3. What activities were covered by TuSimple’s national security agreement with CFIUS?4. What were the infractions of this agreement for which TuSimple paid a $6 million settlement?5. Are “national security agreements” an adequate mechanism for controlling high-risk companies with known ties to the Chinese Communist Party?
    Thank you for your attention to this matter.
    Sincerely,Josh HawleyU.S. Senator

  • MIL-OSI Asia-Pac: Mediation convention signed

    Source: Hong Kong Information Services

    A signing ceremony for the Convention on the Establishment of the International Organization for Mediation (IOMed) was held today as it was revealed that Hong Kong has been chosen as the IOMed’s home.

     

    The IOMed will be the world’s first intergovernmental international legal organisation dedicated to mediation.

     

    CPC Central Committee Political Bureau Member and Foreign Affairs Minister Wang Yi signed the convention on behalf of China. Representatives from 32 other countries also signed it.

     

    Addressing the ceremony, Mr Wang said that as an innovative step in international rule of law, the IOMed has great significance in the history of international relations.

     

    He stressed that its establishment is an actualisation of the principles of the United Nations (UN) Charter and an example of a civilisational belief in harmony, while epitomising inclusiveness in the rule of law.

     

    Outlining that the IOMed will be headquartered in Hong Kong, Mr Wang said the city’s handover is in itself a success story that exemplifies peaceful settlement of international disputes. The success of the “one country, two systems” principle has created brighter prospects for prosperity and stability in Hong Kong, he added.

     

    Mr Wang said he looks forward to all parties working together to ensure the IOMed plays a positive role in peacefully resolving international disputes to create a brighter future for humanity.

     

    Chief Executive John Lee, as well as senior representatives from more than 50 countries, and from the United Nations and other international organisations, attended the ceremony.

     

    Chief Secretary Chan Kwok-ki, Financial Secretary Paul Chan, and Secretary for Justice Paul Lam were also present.

     

    Mr Lee expressed his gratitude to the central government for allowing Hong Kong the honour of housing the organisation’s headquarters, adding that Hong Kong has a well-respected legal system and world-class legal and dispute resolution professionals.

     

    “The IOMed will provide a pathway for countries – regardless of culture, language and legal system – to resolve international disputes based on mutual respect and understanding. This is increasingly important amid mounting geopolitical tensions.”

     

    This afternoon’s Global Forum on International Mediation involved discussions of topics including mediation of disputes among countries and mediation of international investment and commercial disputes.

     

    Guest speakers emphasised that Hong Kong has unique features that allow it to build bridges between different legal traditions.

     

    United Nations Commission on International Trade Law Secretary Anna Joubin-Bret said: “It combines the background and the expertise in both civil and common law, and it is the only jurisdiction that has these two features, and that is exactly what mediation needs.”

     

    Former President of Slovenia Danilo Türk remarked that Hong Kong is a place of innovations in multiple ways, including technology, trade, and now also diplomacy.

     

    “I think that that is a really very good choice. Hong Kong is already established as one of the global centres of communication, of everything, of every form of communication. And to add this dimension would enrich Hong Kong and would enrich also the processes of mediation.”

     

    Executive Director of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Institute for Peace & Reconciliation I Gusti Agung Wesaka Puja, said he expected the IOMed to collaborate with other regional organisations, including ASEAN, in finding solutions to conflict situations within the region.

     

    “I think Hong Kong and China have a lot of experience on the trade issues, on economic issues, and of course we expect that IOMed will also deal with the political and security issues in the future.”

     

    Meanwhile, Asian Academy of International Law Founder Member and Co-Chairman Teresa Cheng said she believes housing the headquarters in Hong Kong will raise the city’s international profile by allowing it to play a leading role in mediation efforts.

     

    “For example, capacity building, running conferences, bringing experts in to discuss certain issues. And all these will attract foreigners coming to Hong Kong and thereby knowing Hong Kong and learning themselves how good Hong Kong is, and therefore be able to bring that view back to their hometown.”

     

    Witnessed by forum guests, Mr Lam signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Minister of Commerce of Cambodia Cham Nimul, to strengthen co-operation between the two places on issues relating to dispute avoidance and resolution.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SHANGHAI, China, May 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GDS Holdings Limited (“GDS Holdings”, “GDS” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: GDS; HKEX: 9698), a leading developer and operator of high-performance data centers in China, today announced the closing of its previously announced underwritten registered public offering of 5,980,000 American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), each representing eight Class A ordinary shares, par value US$0.00005 per share (the “Primary ADSs Offering”), at a public offering price of US$24.50 per ADS (the “Primary ADSs Offering Price”), and reflecting the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase 780,000 additional ADSs.

    GDS received net proceeds from the Primary ADSs Offering of approximately $141.6 million, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. The Company received all of the net proceeds from the Primary ADSs Offering and plans to use such net proceeds for general corporate purposes, working capital needs and the refinancing of its existing indebtedness, including potential future negotiated repurchases, or redemption upon exercise of the investor put right, of its convertible bonds due 2029.

    The Company also announced today by separate press release the closing of an offering of 2.25% convertible senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of US$550 million due 2032 (the “Notes”) in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which amount reflects the exercise in full by the initial purchasers of their option to purchase an additional US$50 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (collectively, the “Notes Offering”).

    The Company also announced today by separate press release the closing of a separate registered public offering (the “Delta Placement of Borrowed ADSs”) of 6,000,000 ADSs (the “Borrowed ADSs”), at a public offering price of US$24.50 (which is the same public offering price as the Primary ADSs Offering Price), that the Company lent to an affiliate (the “ADS Borrower”) of an initial purchaser in the Notes Offering in order to facilitate the privately negotiated derivative transactions entered into by some holders of the Notes for purposes of hedging their investment in the Notes. The Company also entered into an ADS lending agreement (the “ADS Lending Agreement”) with an affiliate of the initial purchaser of the Notes Offering (such affiliate being the “ADS Borrower”), pursuant to which the Company lent the Borrowed ADSs to the ADS Borrower. The ADS Borrower or its affiliate received all of the proceeds from the sale of the Borrowed ADSs and the Company did not receive any of those proceeds, but the ADS Borrower paid the Company a nominal lending fee for the use of those ADSs pursuant to the ADS Lending Agreement. The activity described above could affect the market price of the Company’s ADSs otherwise prevailing at that time.

    Nothing contained herein shall constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, including the Primary ADSs, the Notes or the Borrowed ADSs, nor shall there be any offer or sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The Primary ADSs Offering and the Delta Placement of Borrowed ADSs were made only by means of separate prospectus supplements and accompanying prospectuses pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

    J.P. Morgan, BofA Securities, Morgan Stanley and UBS Investment Bank acted as joint book-running managers, and China Galaxy and Guotai Junan International acted as financial advisors, for the Primary ADSs Offering.

    The Company filed an automatic shelf registration statement on Form F-3 with the SEC.

  • MIL-OSI: GDS Announces Closing of Offering of American Depositary Shares in connection with the Delta Placement of Borrowed ADSs

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SHANGHAI, China, May 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GDS Holdings Limited (“GDS Holdings”, “GDS” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: GDS; HKEX: 9698), a leading developer and operator of high-performance data centers in China, today announced the closing of a previously announced registered public offering of 6,000,000 American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), each representing eight Class A ordinary shares, par value US$0.00005 per share (the “Delta Placement of Borrowed ADSs”), at a public offering price of US$24.50 per ADS (the “Delta Public Offering Price”), which the Company lent (such loaned ADSs, the “Borrowed ADSs”) to an affiliate of the underwriter in the ADS offering (such affiliate, the “ADS Borrower”) pursuant to an ADS lending agreement with the ADS Borrower (the “ADS Lending Agreement”).

    The ADS Borrower or its affiliate received all of the proceeds from the sale of the Borrowed ADSs. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the Delta Placement of Borrowed ADSs but received from the ADS Borrower a nominal lending fee, which was applied to fully pay up the Class A ordinary shares underlying the Borrowed ADSs. The Company believes that the Borrowed ADSs will not be considered outstanding for the purpose of computing and reporting its earnings per ADS under the current U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and, therefore, the Company believes that no dilution will occur as a result of the Borrowed ADSs.

    The Borrowed ADSs were sold concurrently with the pricing of the Notes Offering (as defined below) and the Primary ADSs Offering (as defined below). The Company was informed by the ADS Borrower that it or its affiliates intends to use the short position resulting from the Delta Placement of the Borrowed ADSs to facilitate privately negotiated derivatives transactions related to the Notes. The activity described above could affect the market price of the Company’s ADSs or the Notes otherwise prevailing at that time.

    The Company also announced today by separate press release the closing of an offering of 2.25% convertible senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of US$550 million due 2032 (the “Notes”) in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), which amount reflects the exercise in full by the initial purchasers of their option to purchase an additional US$50 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (collectively, the “Notes Offering”).

    The Company also announced today by separate press release the closing of a separate registered public offering (the “Primary ADSs Offering”) of 5,980,000 ADSs (the “Primary ADSs”), at a public offering price of US$24.50 per ADS (which is the same public offering price as the Delta Public Offering Price), and reflecting the exercise in full by the underwriters in the Primary ADSs Offering of their option to purchase 780,000 additional Primary ADSs.

    Nothing contained herein shall constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, including the Borrowed ADSs, the Notes or the Primary ADSs, nor shall there be any offer or sale of the securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The Delta Placement of Borrowed ADSs and the Primary ADSs Offering were made only by means of separate prospectus supplements and accompanying prospectuses pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

    The Company filed an automatic shelf registration statement on Form F-3 with the SEC. A preliminary prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus describing the terms of the Delta Placement of Borrowed ADSs were filed with the SEC. The prospectus supplement for the Delta Placement of Borrowed ADSs was filed with the SEC. The Delta Placement of Borrowed ADSs was made only by means of the prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus.
