Chinese Navy Issues Angry Warning to US Plane in South China Sea - Audio Recording
The Chinese navy repeatedly warned the U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon plane to leave airspace around disputed islands in the South China Sea. "Foreign military aircraft, this is Chinese navy. You are approaching our military alert zone. Leave immediately," a Chinese naval officer warned the U.S. plane in tense radio exchange, "Your action is unfriendly and dangerous. Please go away quickly."
U.S. Sailors assigned to Patrol Squadron (VP) 45 conduct flight operations aboard a P-8A Poseidon over the Spratly Islands in South China Sea, May 20. VP-45 is on deployment supporting U.S. 7th Fleet operations in the Pacific.

After 92 years, Japan’s ‘rajio taiso’ stretching exercises still a hit daily routine for millions
Subscribe to our YouTube channel for free here:
https://sc.mp/subscribe-youtube
A Japanese broadcast tradition known as rajio taiso started in 1928, when the Postal Life Insurance Bureau of Japan’s Ministry of Communications established a national exercise programme to improve people’s health. The state-run insurance firm took a cue from US insurance companies which sponsored fitness programmes on American radio during the 1920s. The broadcasts became wildly popular as they aired on Japan’s public broadcaster NHK. Nearly a century later the stretching exercises are still performed by millions every day. Many tuned in during the coronavirus pandemic while remote working, to stretching routines featured several times a day on radio as well as television and YouTube.
