Source: Altermidya, used with permission Several groups led by Filipino fishers organized a sail mission towards the South China Sea (known locally as West Philippine Sea) on May 30 and 31 to challenge China’s four-month fishing ban.

Certes, les start-ups du géant asiatique restent loin derrière les mastodontes américains comme SpaceX, qui a effectué jeudi le quatrième vol test de sa mégafusée Starship - la plus grande du monde. Mais l'écart se réduit, car la Chine soutient désormais activement son secteur privé, qui lui permet de renforcer ses capacités, expliquent des experts ...
