The dragon boat culture in Diejiao dates back to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), and has been practiced for over 500 years. More than a traditional sport, it embodies Lingnan Water Town folk beliefs and clan culture. Diejiao's dense, narrow, winding waterways require dragon boats to "drift around bends," creating a rare "dragon boat drifting" stunt—known as "water Formula 1"—that rivals traditional racing in visual thrill.

Each dragon boat needs more than 40 people in tight coordination: helmsmen read water flow and angles by experience, while rowers adjust balance on the spot. Narrow channels and sharp turns risk capsizing or collisions, testing teamwork. Watch today's "C-bend" race!

At the Shangri-La Dialogue, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth framed China as an "imminent threat" and urged Asia to boost defense spending by 5 percent, distance from China – their top trading partner, and host more U.S. troops.

CGTN anchor Xu Qinduo counters: Should Asian countries really sacrifice prosperity to help "Make America Great Again"?

The Asia-Pacific region deserves real leadership – one that unites, not divides. Zero-sum games won't bring peace; cooperation will.
