June 8 marks both World Oceans Day and China's National Ocean Awareness Day. In Xiamen, East China's Fujian province, Chinese white dolphins are nicknamed "Mazu fish" after the revered goddess of the sea. Loved by local residents, they are protected through a simple principle: not disturbing them.
Today, the city government, local communities and research institutions work together to safeguard these "sea pandas" and the marine environment they depend on.

China has decided to extend visa-free entry for Russian citizens until Dec 31, 2027, a spokesman for the Foreign Ministry said on May 20.
The measures upgrade an earlier policy released in 2025 and are designed to make the process "more convenient, faster and easier" for foreign shoppers, according to an official notice.
