On January 28, Neil Ferguson, a famous historian at Oxford University, wrote in the Sunday Times that Jack Ma's universal globalization provides a better rebuttal to "America First". "Jack Ma has his own answer: e-commerce is not for large companies and developed countries, but for developing countries, young people and small businesses. We should not let 60,000 large companies in the world control global trade. We should empower 6 million, 16 million, and 60 million companies through technology and policies. Alibaba wants to make this happen." (Source: Blue Whale TMT)

3. The takeaway e-commerce industry implements a "plastic restriction order"

A large amount of garbage generated by new business formats such as express delivery and takeaway has attracted social attention. 18 representatives jointly proposed a proposal to improve plastic restrictions and control white garbage. The proposal proposes that Beijing's economic development level has long reached the level of developed countries. Referring to the experience of other developed countries and the current production costs of environmentally friendly and biodegradable plastic bags, the cost of forcibly using biodegradable and environmentally friendly plastic bags in supermarkets, shopping malls, markets and other commodity retail places, as well as takeaway and some e-commerce industries is completely acceptable. Therefore, it is recommended to conduct in-depth investigations and research within the city of Beijing as soon as possible, and to pass local regulations as soon as possible to implement a more stringent "plastic restriction order".
