A Clean Cyberspace

March 1
A regulation on network information management released by the Cyberspace
Administration of China went into effect on March 1. The regulation is aimed at meeting
people’s demand for a better cyberenvironment and safeguarding their legitimate rights and
interests.
The regulation prohibits content and service providers, users and platforms from engag-

of network governance in accordance with the law has reached a new level.
The regulation requires content providers on the Internet to avoid producing, copying or

are encouraged to release positive content. Platforms should improve their systems of user

not follow the regulation.

and development of drugs. It is open
and transparent in information commu-
nication and international cooperation.
The decisive measures adopted inside
China also contributed to global health
security.
Today, even some developed coun-
tries have disadvantages in equipment,
technologies and personnel. They should
enhance their understanding of global
health governance. When COVID-
was announced as a public health emer-
gency of international concern, it was
hoped that countries would act in a co-
ordinated and concerted manner rather
than create fear and blockades.
From this perspective, the COVID-
outbreak provides an important chance
for proactive global health governance,
although it is an unprecedented chal-
lenge. Seeing the increased number of
cases, countries and regions should real-
ize the urgent need to strengthen global
cooperation and improve capacity for
emergency management and risk pre-
vention. Fighting shoulder to shoulder is
the best option.


Chinese Olympic and world swimming champion Sun Yang was handed an eight-year
ban as the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) upheld the World Anti-Doping Agency’s
(WADA) appeal on February 28.
Sun won two gold medals at the London Summer Olympics in 2012. Born in 1991 in
Zhejiang Province, east China, he is the world record holder in the men’s
1,500-meter freestyle and the Olympic record holder in the men’s
400-meter freestyle.
Sun was found guilty of refusing to cooperate with sample collec-
tors during a controversial visit to his home by the international testing
company IDTM on September 4, 2018. He had argued that the doping

Immediately after he received the news, S un said he would appeal
to the Swiss Federal Tribunal against the decision.
