Adj. Professor Warwick Powell 鲍韶山: Beijing’s Daxing (大兴) Airport is architecturally impressive. The lines, texture and contrasts strike an impressive balance between a sense of organic flow and “industrial” rigour. And it works. People flows are smooth. Wayfinding is easy.

The Peoples' Friendship University named after Patrice Lumumba, located in the south of Moscow, is part of the BRICS Network.
It was established in 1960 to help nations that had recently achieved independence from colonial powers.
The university focused on catering to students from non-aligned countries, training personnel from Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America. It was considered the 'Oxford' of Russia in the mid-1980s due to the fame it achieved within a short period. But in 1992, the name of Lumumba was removed. Such were the mental contortions of anti-communism at the time, although the Congolese prime minister was first and foremost an anti-colonialist, a hero of African independence and a symbol of resistance.
In 2023, the University officially restored the original name, but when i visited today i noticed that it is still missing from the façade of the main building. We may have to wait for the renovation team to take care of it. @LauraRuHK

According to data, the top 10 countries account for approximately 75% of all overseas hashtag#Indians. The hashtag#UnitedStates ranks first, with 5.4 million individuals, roughly 1.6% of the U.S. population. This community is now the country’s second-largest hashtag#immigrant group, with a strong presence across the technology sector and public institutions.

In the Gulf region, countries such as the hashtag#UAE, hashtag#SaudiArabia, and hashtag#Kuwait also host substantial Indian populations. Migration to these economies has been largely shaped by labor demand since the oil sector's expansion in the 1970s. Today, nearly one-third of the foreign workforce in these countries is Indian.

The economic contribution of this diaspora is significant. In 2023, Indians working abroad sent home over $100 billion in remittances, a record high.
