  • MIL-OSI Russia: Moscow Chamber Orchestra Musica Viva regularly organizes concerts for wounded SVO soldiers

    The Moscow Chamber Orchestra Musica Viva, subordinate to the capital’s Department of Culture, regularly organizes concerts and performances for wounded soldiers of the special military operation (SVO) at concert venues and in hospitals together with the charitable foundation “Our Power of Good”.

    The charitable foundation “Our Power of Good” was created in March 2023. Its task is to socialize disabled participants of the SVO, promote their involvement in the full life of society, and also help in acquiring the necessary skills taking into account the injuries received.

    The collaboration between the foundation and the Moscow Chamber Orchestra Musica Viva began on January 23, when 10 members of the SVO, including wheelchair users undergoing rehabilitation in the capital’s hospitals, attended a concert in the large hall of the Moscow Concert Hall “Zaryadye”. Then the wounded soldiers attended the orchestra’s performances in the Great Hall of the Moscow State Conservatory named after P.I. Tchaikovsky and the Concert Hall named after P.I. Tchaikovsky.

    The foundation’s wards heard such immortal masterpieces as the Requiem by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, The Four Seasons by Antonio Vivaldi, cantatas by Johann Sebastian Bach, works by Astor Piazzolla, and symphonies by Robert Schumann. In addition, outstanding Russian soloists performed for them: opera diva Vasilisa Berzhanskaya, laureates of international violin competitions Daniil Kogan, Ravilya Islyamova, and Elena Korzhenevich. The SVO participants became acquainted with the art of the Moscow State Academic Chamber Choir “Minin Choir”. Many of them were introduced to classical music for the first time.

    When wounded soldiers attend concerts of the Musica Viva orchestra, they meet the artists backstage and communicate in an informal setting. Music inspires soldiers, gives strength, heals not only physical wounds, but also the soul. At the meetings, words of gratitude are heard to the SVO participants for their bravery, fortitude and endurance. The musicians note that it is important for them to help people who risked their lives to defend the Motherland. The total number of SVO participants who attended the performances exceeded 300 people.

    In addition, since November 2023, the Musica Viva orchestra has been collaborating with the Central Clinical Military Sanatorium in Arkhangelskoye, performing for the SVO soldiers undergoing rehabilitation there. The first concert was held in the medical building, the second – in the institution’s club. According to military tradition, the soldiers greeted the orchestra with three cheers. The hospital management awarded the performances with certificates of gratitude and asked to prepare a special musical gift for the audience next time – the march “Farewell of Slavyanka”.

    For each member of the orchestra, performing for the defenders of the Motherland is a special honor. In this way, the artists contribute to the overall victory.

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    An engineering building with physical education and health facilities with a total area of over 16,000 square meters was built on the territory of the Newton Plaza technology park, a multifunctional complex that includes high-tech enterprises. This was reported by the Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Moscow Department of Urban Development Policy Vladislav Ovchinsky.

    The building is located at the address: 1st Nagatinsky proezd, building 10. It was built in the style of modern minimalism, so it blends in organically with the adjacent buildings of the technology park thanks to the use of similar facade materials.

    “The multifunctional complex consists of seven above-ground, two underground and one basement floors. It includes laboratories, sports and fitness and administrative premises. The complex building is connected to the existing building of the innovation and industrial complex by an above-ground passage at the level of the first floor and an underground passage at the level of the minus second floor. In addition, an underground passage to the prospective development near the northern border of the site is provided,” said Vladislav Ovchinsky.

    The engineering block contains laboratory and administrative premises, a control room, laboratories, laboratory utility rooms, technical rooms, a shared use center (coworking area), acoustic office cabins, auxiliary and technical rooms, and a balcony with a usable terrace.

    The laboratories will conduct tests of electronic systems of cars and issue conclusions based on their results. They also plan to check the acoustic systems of cars and motorcycles for compliance with sound quality and noise level certificates.

    The physical education and health block houses martial arts halls, functional training, group classes, fitness, a massage room and a hammam, as well as various service and administrative departments, tennis courts and a gym.

    Based on the results of the comprehensive final inspection, the Committee for State Construction Supervision of the City of Moscow (Mosgosstroynadzor) issued a conclusion on the compliance of the facility with the design documentation.

    “The engineering building was erected in five years, and throughout all stages of construction the committee monitored the progress of the work – a total of 29 on-site inspections were conducted at the site. Now the developer can prepare documentation to obtain permission to put the building into operation,” added the chairman of Mosgosstroynadzor

    Anton Slobodchikov.

    Earlier Sergei Sobyanin reportedon the completion of the construction of the first stage of the ZIL technology park, an investment priority project for the capital.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Universities – Do investors trust AI for stock market predictions? – UoA

    Source: University of Auckland (UoA)

    Despite the growing sophistication of artificial intelligence, investors prefer human expertise when it comes to stock market predictions, according to a new study. 

    The study, which involved 3,600 US participants, examined responses to S&P 500 stock predictions made by human analysts, AI systems and a combination of both.
    Researchers Dr Gertjan Verdickt (University of Auckland) and Francesco Stradi (KU Leuven), say the findings challenge the assumption that AI’s data-crunching prowess might automatically earn investor trust. 
    “We found that investors are more likely to believe human analysts first, followed by a combination of both human and AI,” says Verdickt, a finance lecturer at the University of Auckland Business School. 
    “AI-generated predictions are viewed with the most scepticism.”
    He says this result was somewhat surprising in light of recent developments in AI technology.
    “Previous studies have shown that AI can outperform human analysts, but it’s apparent that trust is a major issue.”
    The results also showed notable differences between genders, with women showing more openness to AI-driven advice than men. 
    “Men tend to be overconfident in their financial abilities, which may explain why they are more sceptical of AI,” says Verdickt.
    “Also, we have seen in other studies that women, on average, get different and often worse advice from financial advisers, such as recommendations for products with higher fees and less risk.” 
    The findings also show that investors with a deeper understanding of AI are more likely to trust its predictions. 
     
    Meanwhile, people who gave their political affiliation as Democrat, were more likely to trust AI-generated forecasts than Republicans.
    To explore whether using more familiar AI tools could boost trust, the researchers also tested whether investors would view the well-known large language model ChatGPT more favourably.  
    “Contrary to recent research suggesting familiarity enhances trust in technology, our results indicate that replacing ‘AI’ with ‘ChatGPT’ does not improve investor trust. In fact, we find that investors distrust ChatGPT-generated advice, perhaps even more than the generic ‘AI model’ we reference in our study.” 
    Verdickt says the findings show that technical effectiveness alone can’t gain investor trust.  
    “We are the first to study investors’ reactions to AI forecasts from a perspective of credibility and beliefs. Our findings show that financial institutions should approach AI integration cautiously and consider tailored communication strategies for different demographics.”

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Significant step forward for Pasifika justice in Aotearoa

    Source: Green Party

    The Green Party has welcomed news that MP Teanau Tuiono’s Member’s Bill has moved forward with unanimous support from the select committee. 

    “This is a significant step forward and a monumental milestone for Pasifika justice in Aotearoa,” says the Green Party’s spokesperson for Pacific Peoples, Teanau Tuiono.

    “Today, Parliament’s Governance and Administration Select Committee reported my Restoring Citizenship Removed By Citizenship (Western Samoa) Act 1982 Bill to the House for its second reading. 

    “Committee members were unanimous in supporting the primary intent of my Bill to restore citizenship to Samoans who had it taken from them by the New Zealand Government in 1982. 

    “This endorsement from the select committee is an encouraging sign for the journey that lies ahead in securing justice for our aiga Samoa. I want to acknowledge the community who came to the select committee to share their stories in both powerful and compelling ways.

    “My Member’s Bill will restore the right to citizenship for people from Western Samoa who were born between 1924 and 1949, fixing a cruel and targeted law rushed through by the Government in 1982 to deny New Zealand citizenship to Samoans. 

    “Earlier that year, the Privy Council found that because those born in Western Samoa were treated by New Zealand law as ‘natural-born British subjects’, they were entitled to New Zealand citizenship when it was first created in 1948. But that right was then taken away from them.

    “For those people still alive today who were New Zealand citizens and had this right shamefully removed at the whim of a Government forty-two years ago, this is another big step towards justice.

    “I’d like to thank members of the select committee for their consideration of my Bill and submitters for their contributions to this important discussion. We can make history by ushering this Bill into law,” says Teanau Tuiono.

  • MIL-Evening Report: The Australian government has introduced new cyber security laws. Here’s what you need to know

    Source: The Conversation (Au and NZ) – By David Tuffley, Senior Lecturer in Applied Ethics & CyberSecurity, Griffith University

    gerardaskes/Shutterstock

    The Albanese government today introduced long-awaited legislation to parliament which is set to revolutionise Australia’s cyber security preparedness.

    The legislation, if passed, will be Australia’s first standalone cyber security act. It’s aimed at protecting businesses and consumers from the rising tide of cyber crime.

    So what are the key provisions, and will it be enough?

    What’s in the new laws?

    The new laws have a strong focus on victims of “ransomware” – malicious software cyber criminals use to block access to crucial files or data until a ransom has been paid.

    People who pay a ransom do not always regain lost data. The payments also sustain the hacker’s business model.

    Under the new law, victims of ransomware attacks who make payments must report the payment to authorities. This will help the government track cyber criminal activities and understand how much money is being lost to ransomware.

    The laws also involve new obligations for the National Cyber Security Coordinator and Australian Signals Directorate. These obligations restrict how these two bodies can use information provided to them by businesses and industry about cyber security incidents. The government hopes this will encourage organisations to more openly share information knowing it will be safeguarded.

    Separately, organisations in critical infrastructure – such as energy, transport, communications, health and finance – will be required to strengthen programs used to secure individuals’ private data.

    The new legislation will also upgrade the investigative powers of the Cyber Incident Review Board. The board will conduct “no-fault” investigations after significant cyber attacks. The board will then share insights to promote improvements in cyber security practices more generally. These insights will be anonymised to ensure the identities of victims of cyber attacks aren’t publicly revealed.

    The legislation will also introduce new minimum cyber security standards for all smart devices, such as watches, televisions, speakers and doorbells.

    These standards will establish a baseline level of security for consumers. They will include secure default settings, unique device passwords, regular security updates and encryption of sensitive data.

    This is a welcome step that will ensure everyday devices meet minimum security criteria before they can be sold in Australia.

    A long-overdue step

    Cyber security incidents have surged by 23% in the past financial year, to more than 94,000 reported cases. This is equivalent to one attack every six minutes.

    This dramatic increase underscores the growing sophistication and frequency of cyber attacks targeting Australian businesses and individuals. It also highlights the urgent need for a comprehensive national response.

    High-profile cyber attacks have further emphasised the need to strengthen Australia’s cyber security framework. The 2022 Optus data breach is perhaps the most prominent example. The breach compromised the personal information of more than 11 million Australians, alarming both the government and the public, not to mention Optus.

    Cyber Security Minister Tony Burke says the Cyber Security Act is a “long-overdue step” that reflects the government’s concern about these threats.

    Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has also acknowledged recent high-profile attacks as a “wake-up call” for businesses, emphasising the need for a unified approach to cyber security.

    The Australian government wants to establish Australia as a world leader in cyber security by 2030. This goal reflects the government’s acknowledgement that cyber security is fundamental to national security, economic prosperity and social well being.

    Broader implications

    The proposed laws will enhance national security. But they could also present challenges.

    For example, even though the laws place limitations on how the National Cyber Security Coordinator and Australian Signals Directorate can use information, some businesses might still be unwilling to share confidential data because they are worried about damage to their reputation.

    Businesses, especially smaller ones, will also face a substantial compliance burden as they adapt to new reporting requirements. They will also potentially need to invest more heavily in cyber security measures. This could lead to increased costs, which might ultimately be passed on to consumers.

    The proposed legislation will require careful implementation to balance the needs of national security, business operations and individual privacy rights.

    On this World Post Day, we mark a historic milestone – the 150th anniversary of the Universal Postal Union.

    In times of war and peace, crises and upheaval, the international postal network has delivered — connecting communities and upholding the fundamental right to communicate.

    The UPU is also one of the earliest examples of multilateralism in action.

    Global cooperation helped guarantee a single postal territory worldwide – one that leaves no one behind by delivering messages, goods, and financial services to some of the most remote places on earth.

    Looking ahead, the UPU continues to leverage new technologies to provide essential services to humanity.  

    On this important day, let’s honour and celebrate the work of the Universal Postal Union to bridge distances and unite the world.

    L’UPU est l’une des premières illustrations du multilatéralisme en action.

    En travaillant main dans la main, les pays sont parvenus à faire du monde un territoire postal unique, concrétisant ainsi la promesse de ne laisser personne de côté en rendant possible la livraison de courriers et de colis, de même que la prestation de services financiers, jusque dans les lieux les plus reculés de la planète.

  • MIL-OSI Submissions: Universities – Swinburne Chancellor to call for bold leadership to tackle climate crisis at 2024 Swinburne Oration

    Source: Swinburne University of Technology

    Swinburne University of Technology Chancellor Professor John Pollaers OAM will use an address tonight to urge Australia’s business, government and academic sectors to step up and lead the charge in addressing the global climate emergency.

    Speaking at the 2024 Swinburne Chancellor’s Oration, Professor Pollaers will underscore that the time for incremental adjustments has passed and that Australia needs transformative leadership that prioritises long-term, strategic alignment of economic, societal and environmental goals.

    “This moment demands more than just managing the status quo. Leaders must rise to the challenge, setting aside short-term gains for a vision that secures not only Australia’s future but also our planet’s,” Professor Pollaers said.

    “Our research and education sector is a national asset, a strategic lever that, when fully harnessed, can propel Australia into a leadership position on the global stage. Becoming a renewable energy superpower is important, but our true potential lies in becoming a brainpower superpower.”

    “The opportunity for clean economic growth is within our reach, but only if we are bold enough to seize it.”

    “It will take every home, every business and every industry working together towards a more sustainable future. The scale of the response required is unprecedented.”

    The Chancellor will use his address at Swinburne’s Hawthorn campus to call on leaders across a range of sectors to act.

    “There’s a false narrative out there that somehow Australia is a powerless victim of this transformation, or too minor a player to make a difference, and there are even some who still question whether we need to act at all. We have to reject this. We have to make the choice to lead.”

    Moderated by esteemed journalist Beverley O’Connor, the Oration will feature a panel of international experts:

    Nicky Sparshott: Global Chief of Transformation, Unilever

    Julian Critchlow: Advisory Partner, Bain and Company and former UK Government Director General, Energy Transformation and Clean Growth

    Dan Cass: Co-Founder and Executive Director, Rewiring Australia

    Paul Gliding: Sustainability advocate and former Greenpeace International Executive Director.

  • MIL-OSI Submissions: Australia – Child rights organisation ChildFund, launch global online safety app

    Source: ChildFund

    Child rights organisation ChildFund have joined forces with The Girls and Boys Brigade to launch ChildFund’s global online safety app – Swipe Safe. ChildFund acknowledge the rapidly changing digital landscape and build an app that puts the power back in the hands of children and their parents.

    (Sydney, Australia).  In the countries in which ChildFund Australia works, the digital transformation of children’s lives has presented acute risks such as scams, cyberbullying, online grooming, and sexual, sexist, racist, or violent content. ChildFund has responded with the creation of the Swipe Safe program and app. The app serves to immediately strengthen children’s knowledge, skills and behaviours keeping them safe online.

    Swipe Safe has been beta tested in five separate phases, directly involving face-to-face training and app testing with tens of thousands of children in Timor-Leste, Papua New Guinea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Fiji and the Solomon Islands. The organisation has now teamed up with the Boys and Girls Brigade to launch the app in Australia.

    They have also been testing the app with families at the Girls and Boys Brigade who have provided local insights into the app. Stephanie Fett the Family Support Coordinator at the Boys and Girls Brigade spoke about how technology is transforming the lives of families the centre supports.

    “We’re seeing young people using phones from about eight years on and they haven’t developed that rational thinking until they reach 24 or even 25 [years of age]. So they are really unaware of the risks online, the natural reaction of parents is to take the phone away. This however struggles to build trust and openness with the parent making it exceedingly more difficult for them to protect their children online.”

    Stephanie elaborated that the app helped build greater trust between parents, carers and children, which is key to helping keep children safer online.

    “Parents need to work to build an open online relationship with children so they are comfortable with talking about their experiences online. The Swipe Safe app is a great tool to help facilitate this communication” [Click here for more on Swipe Safe].”

    ChildFund Chief Development Officer Corinne Habel was thrilled to launch the app in Australia and bring the insights that they have learned in overseas to home soil.

    “The Swipe Safe app is a unique online safety app that has been developed by global child protection specialists. Reports indicate that the volume of child sexual abuse material has increased by 87% in the last 5 years.

    SwipeSafe helps parents, caregivers, children and young people navigate an increasingly risky online space.  The online world is an exciting place for children to learn, play and connect, and we need to give them the tools to stay safe and understand and feel comfortable reporting harmful situations.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Sobyanin: Social coordinators provided 250 thousand services to hospital patients and their relatives

    MILES AXLE Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    The unique Moscow service “Social Service in Hospitals” has turned three years old. During this time, social coordinators have provided patients and their relatives with more than 250 thousand services. About this in his blog Sergei Sobyanin said.

    “When we launched this project, we had no doubt that it would definitely be in demand. There is little pleasant about going to the hospital: hospitalization, even planned, disrupts the usual way of life. Worrying about one’s own health is often mixed with other worries. When it comes to emergency cases, it is very easy to get confused,” the Moscow Mayor wrote.

    Hospitalized Muscovites face many questions. For example, how to tell relatives what happened if you don’t have your phone with you or it’s dead? Who will look after a small child? How to cope with household chores after discharge if you live alone? Hundreds of other questions arise.

    Previously, nurses and doctors had to deal with their solution. This took a lot of time, distracting them from their direct responsibilities. Now, in every Moscow adult and children’s hospital, specialized specialists – social coordinators – have taken on the solution of non-medical problems. They come to the aid of elderly or lonely people, patients with disabilities and low-mobility Muscovites, as well as everyone who, due to various circumstances, finds themselves in a difficult life situation.

    To contact social coordinators, you do not need to write an application. The specialists themselves meet new patients every morning, delve into their problems and begin to help. If necessary, they involve other departments and organizations of the city.

    “If necessary, social coordinators will help with home care services or round-the-clock care in the city’s social inpatient institutions. In children’s hospitals, they primarily provide consultations on various social protection services. For example, they advise how to contact the early assistance service if developmental peculiarities are detected,” Sergei Sobyanin noted.

    Despite typical situations, each case of helping patients is unique. Over the years of work, social coordinators have accumulated many successful stories.

    Stories of Help

    Thus, an elderly patient Antonina Ivanovna was admitted to the N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute of Emergency Care. Due to poor health, she did not have time to inform her relatives that she was hospitalized, and she did not have a mobile phone. And the woman did not take the necessary things with her. Social coordinators immediately came to the rescue: they connected her with her beloved grandson. The news that his grandmother was in the hospital took him by surprise, but the young man immediately said that he would bring everything necessary and would definitely visit Antonina Ivanovna. Now she is at home, and her relatives regularly come to visit.

    A patient named Valeria was admitted to the shock resuscitation department unconscious. She had been in a coma for a long time. When Valeria came to, the doctors asked social coordinators for help: they needed to establish her identity and find her relatives. At that time, the girl could not speak. The coordinators selected simple words and short questions, used letters of the alphabet, city maps, and caught her every move. In this way, they managed to find out the patient’s name and date of birth. After that, the coordinators began studying social networks, involved the police and the LizaAlert squad in the search. A week later, they found Valeria’s father, who had already lost hope of finding out where his daughter was.

    Tatyana Viktorovna came to the emergency room on her own. Doctors examined the elderly woman and, finding no reason for hospitalization, asked social coordinators to talk to her. During the conversation, it turned out that Tatyana Viktorovna had a passport, money, keys to the apartment and a train ticket from St. Petersburg. She assured that she had come to Moscow to see her children, but could not give either their address or phone numbers, and confused events and dates. Specialists came to the conclusion that the woman suffered from dementia. People with cognitive impairments often get lost. Social coordinators contacted the LizaAlert search service and with their help found Tatyana Viktorovna’s son, who, like her, lives in St. Petersburg. The man immediately went to Moscow to pick up his mother.

    Young mother Olga was walking with her two-year-old son on the playground when she suddenly began to lose consciousness. The woman was taken to the hospital with her child, but she did not have time to tell anyone about it. While doctors were providing Olga with the necessary medical care, social coordinators looked after the baby and contacted the woman’s husband. He came to the hospital and took his son.

    Help in alarming situations: social coordinators are now working in four more children’s city hospitalsAttention and care: social coordinators have been helping patients in the capital’s hospitals for two years

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: Business – OCR Drop Welcomed by Canterbury Businesses

    Source: Business Canterbury

    Canterbury businesses will welcome today’s further drop in the OCR following the Reserve Bank’s announcement to cut the OCR by 50 basis points to 4.75%. 
    Business Canterbury Chief Executive Leeann Watson says, “today’s further drop will provide a further boost to business confidence at a time when businesses continue to face increased financial pressure. We hope today’s announcement will continue to increase consumer confidence and demand, which have been at an all-time low.”
    “Since February 2023, when inflation and interest rates outpaced labour market constraints, cost pressures have consistently taken the number one spot in business concerns, according to Business Canterbury’s quarterly survey of over 450 businesses in Canterbury.”
    “Following the previous OCR announcement in August, we saw quite a significant improvement in expectations for both the Canterbury economy and individual business performance, a big turnaround from what we saw in the results from May.”
    “This optimism indicates that recent drops in inflation and interest rates are positively influencing the business operating environment, even as many companies continue to navigate the challenges of what has felt like an elastic band economy over the past few years.”
    “We hope to see further improvement in consumer confidence which saw a lift in September, although still net pessimistic, with spending remaining subdued in many areas. Over the three months to August, retail spending in Canterbury declined by just over 1% from the same time last year, a reduction of about $26 million, which businesses continue to be concerned about. We hope today’s further reduction will see further improvements in consumer confidence to help boost sales for businesses, off the back of an extremely challenging period.”
    “Today’s announcement is another positive step in encouraging an environment that supports economic activity, enabling businesses to concentrate on productivity, innovation, and growth.”
    “Canterbury businesses have shown incredible resilience over the past four to five years, and I’m confident that they will continue to thrive as we move toward a more optimistic economic future.”

    Business Canterbury, formerly Canterbury Employers’ Chamber of Commerce, is the largest business support agency in the South Island and advocates on behalf of its members for an environment more favourable to innovation, productivity and sustainable growth.

    MILES AXLE Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    Today, the capital’s food industry is represented by 290 enterprises employing over 60 thousand people. In the first eight months of this year, producers, with the active support of the city, increased the production of food and beverages. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry Maxim Liksutov.

    “Moscow’s industrial enterprises successfully provide residents with critically important goods: clothing and footwear, medicines, medical equipment, household chemicals, and food products. On behalf of Sergei Sobyanin, the city provides industrialists with comprehensive support, which is aimed at strengthening technological sovereignty and creating the necessary volumes of in-demand products. Thus, from January to August 2024, Moscow saw an increase in food production. In particular, the production of fish products more than doubled, meat and dairy products by 10 percent, bakery and flour confectionery by seven percent, and beverages by 16 percent. In addition, during this period, Moscow enterprises shipped food products worth more than 472.3 billion rubles, which is almost 20 percent more than the same period in 2023,” said Maxim Liksutov.

    From January to August, industrialists produced over 200.9 thousand tons of sausages, more than 53.8 million cans of fruit and vegetable preserves, about 27 thousand tons of cheese and cottage cheese, approximately 327 thousand tons of bread and bakery products, as well as almost 30 thousand cans of fruit and vegetable juices.

    Goods produced in the city are in demand both within the Moscow agglomeration and in other regions of the country, as well as abroad.

    “Based on the results of the first eight months of 2024, meat processing plants delivered goods to customers worth almost 106 billion rubles, and dairy plants – almost 60 billion. In addition, bread and bakery producers shipped more than 63 billion rubles. The volume of beverage deliveries amounted to 54 billion rubles and exceeded the results of January-August 2023 by 41 percent,” said the Minister of the Moscow Government, head of the capital’s Department of Investment and Industrial Policy

    Anatoly Garbuzov.

    Moscow is the largest industrial and scientific-engineering center of Russia. There are more than 4.5 thousand industrial enterprises in the capital, employing over 750 thousand people. Every year, 150 new technology companies open here and dozens of investment projects are implemented, providing the city with additional jobs.

    The capital has developed a set of measures aimed at increasing Moscow’s investment attractiveness for domestic industrialists and developing production. Comfortable conditions have been created for small, medium and large enterprises – today, manufacturers have access to more than 20 systemic and anti-crisis support tools.

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Rushing or delaying decisions is linked to anxiety and depression in young people – study

    Source: The Conversation – Africa – By Eugene Lee Davids, Associate Professor, University of Pretoria

    Each day we make thousands of decisions, starting with what to have for breakfast and what to wear. We make so many decisions that we don’t keep count.

    But it’s important to understand the way we make choices. This is because the approach we take can influence our mental health.

    Over the last eight years, I’ve been researching how young people (15-25) make decisions – especially decisions that have an impact on their mental health. Mental health is a major health and social concern, shaping the lives of young people globally.

    In a recent study, I looked at whether decision-making styles contribute to anxiety and depression among young adults in South Africa.

    One style of making decisions is to evaluate all the possible options and choose the one that would lead to the best outcome. This is called vigilant decision-making.

    The second approach is to make “rushed” decisions, or to put off making a decision.

    I found that vigilant decision makers typically had lower anxiety and depression symptoms. Young adults who put off or rushed their decisions had more anxiety and depression symptoms.

    In the total study group, 37.3% were at risk of a diagnosis for major depressive disorder and 74.2% were at risk for anxiety disorder. These risks were high because rushed or delayed decision makers made up a big share of the total group.

    Understanding the impact of decision-making on mental health helps us recognise whether our choices support or undermine emotional well-being.

    High stress levels

    My research study included 1,411 young South Africans from eight of the country’s nine provinces. They each completed an online questionnaire which measured how they made decisions together with their levels of anxiety and depression symptoms. The types of questions asked included how they would rate statements such as “I like to consider all the alternatives” or “I put off making decisions”.

    The young people in the study were in a stage of development called “emerging adulthood” – between the ages of 18 and 29. Young people in this age group experience high levels of stress and uncertainty, often because of their changing role in society. They are deciding which career path to follow or taking on more adult-like roles.

    Participants in the study were at a stage of life when they could easily develop a disorder. Many mental health disorders start to develop by the age of 15. But it is estimated that by age 25 close to 63%-75% of mental health disorders would be present.

    When a person has to make a decision, time plays a big role. It can influence whether the person uses a vigilant style or a rushed approach. And that approach, in turn, can reduce or create anxiety.

    For example, if a young person needs to decide what contraceptive to use, and they have the time do a thorough search of all the possible contraceptive options and are optimistic about finding the best one, they can arrive at a decision which will be the best for them. The young person is able to evaluate all the possible options without any stress or concern about time.

    But when a concern about time arises and it results in a more rushed decision, or when a decision is delayed for a later stage because of the pressure, it is likely to lead to an increase in anxiety and depression symptoms. The decision of what degree to pursue at university, while the deadline for applying is looming, is an example.

    In the study, an advanced statistical analysis technique was used to look at the links between styles of decision-making and anxiety and depression symptoms. Using this analysis technique I was able to predict which of the styles of decision-making were linked with the anxiety and depression symptoms among the young people in the study.

    Steps to take when making decisions

    Having time on your side often allows for better choices. So it’s worth looking at some useful steps when making decisions:

    1. Identify the problem or situation clearly.

    2. Brainstorm all the possible solutions or options available.

    3. Research the pros and cons of each solution or option.

    4. Determine which of the solutions or options would result in the best outcome for you, based on the problem or situation.

    5. Then, if you are still uncertain, you could consult someone you trust and who has made good decisions previously.

    These five steps are similar to the vigilant decision-making style.

    Looking forward

    Globally, there is a gap in our understanding of mental health among young people. Studying how they make decisions allows researchers to better understand how their choices shape their mental health. It’s then possible to develop programmes that support decision-making that leads to positive mental health outcomes.

    It’s even more important today, when big trends such as the impact of climate change and the (unsafe) digital world are affecting mental health.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Six Ivolga trains purchased for MCD-3 as part of infrastructure budget lending

    MILES AXLE Translation. Region: Russian Federation –

    Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

    This year, the city purchased six Russian Ivolga trains for the Moscow Central Diameters (MCD), including the most modern three-door Ivolga 4.0 trains. Infrastructure budget loans were used for these purposes, Maria Bagreeva, Deputy Mayor of Moscow, Head of the Moscow Department of Economic Policy and Development.

    The infrastructure budget lending program is being implemented within the framework of the federal project “Infrastructure Menu”. Funds are provided for a period of up to 15 years at a preferential rate of three percent per annum. The program is aimed at financing the creation of infrastructure facilities in the regions.

    “Loans are issued for important infrastructure development projects that help create conditions for business operations, improve the quality of life for citizens, and promote economic growth both in the regions and throughout the country. Moscow is using the opportunities of preferential infrastructure lending to upgrade the rolling stock of the Big Circle Line of the metro and the Moscow Central Diameters — the largest transport projects in the capital. Their implementation has increased the attractiveness of the city’s districts, contributed to the influx of investment into the Moscow economy, and created additional jobs,” said Maria Bagreeva.

    The total volume of infrastructure loans approved for Moscow is 106.72 billion rubles. The 2022–2024 limits have already been fully used. These funds were used to purchase 26 trains for the Moscow Central Diameters and 468 carriages for the Big Circle Line of the metro.

    “A modern and comfortable train is an important component of a comfortable trip. On the instructions of Sergei Sobyanin, we continue to gradually update the rolling stock on new diameters. From Zelenograd to Ramenskoye on MCD-3, only Ivolga trains are already running, we will fully complete the renewal of the train fleet on this diameter by the end of the year, and on MCD-4 we plan to do so in 2025,” said Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry

    Maxim Liksutov.

    Moscow is the country’s largest customer of trains. Concluding long-term contracts for the supply of modern rolling stock allows machine builders to plan work for several years ahead.

    About 50 thousand employees of 600 enterprises across the country are involved in the production of Ivolga 4.0. This composition is a domestic flagship, the localization level of which has reached 97 percent.

    The new generation train “Ivolga 4.0” has entered service on the MCD line – Sobyanin
