Ugandans view Mamdani’s NYC win as a ‘beacon of hope’ amid democratic struggle

Ugandans reacted with joy and of hope to the news that Kampala-born Zohran Mamdani had been elected mayor of New York City, amid a stormy democratic and rights environment in east Africa.

Mamdani, who was born in Uganda 34 years ago to a family of Indian origin, on Tuesday defeated former governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican Curtis Sliwa to become the city’s first Muslim mayor and the first of south Asian heritage.

He has lived in the US since he was seven years old. In his 20s, under the stage name Young Cardamom, he made music with Ugandan rapper HAB.

Many in Uganda had not heard of Mamdani before the election win or that a Ugandan had become the youngest mayor of New York City in more than a century.

But there was excitement and pride at Makerere University in the Ugandan capital, Kampala, where Mamdani’s father taught until a few years ago.

“Seeing Zohran up there, I feel like I can also make it,” psychology student Anthony Kirabo told Agence France-Presse (AFP).

“It makes me feel good and proud of my country because it shows that Uganda can produce some good leaders,” said the 22-year-old, adding that he hoped it might encourage more tourists to come to the east African country.

Mamdani’s win comes at a trying period for democracy in east Africa, where observers describe growing repression and violation of human rights in some countries.

Uganda’s neighbour Tanzania is reeling from bloody election violence last week in which hundreds of people were reported to have been killed in demonstrations against what protesters said was the stifling of the opposition after the exclusion of key candidates from the presidential ballot.

Some hoped Mamdani’s victory would provide a lesson for Ugandan leaders as the country readies itself for a potentially fraught general election in January, with Yoweri Museveni, the president who has ruled the country for 39 years, seeking to extend his grip on power into a seventh term.

Developments in the run-up, including the months-long detention of opposition politician Kizza Besigye, the passage of a bill to try civilians in military court and the abduction of two Kenyan rights activists, have turned the spotlight on what critics deem intolerance and authoritarianism by Museveni’s administration.

Joseph Sendagire, a 28-year-old procurement officer, told AFP he hoped Uganda would “borrow a leaf” from New York City’s mayoral election.

“Uganda should embrace a culture of free and fair elections, allow candidates to compete for whatever post we want in a fair manner, treat them equally, and then at the end of the day, may the best candidate win,” he said.

Robert Kabushenga, a retired media executive who is friendly with the Mamdani family, told the Associated Press that the win offers “a beacon of hope” for embattled activists and others in Uganda. The lesson is that “we should allow young people the opportunity to shape, and participate in, politics in a meaningful way,” he said.

Bobi Wine, Museveni’s main challenger, sent “hearty congratulations” to Mamdani.

“From Uganda, we celebrate and draw strength from your example as we work to build a country where every citizen can realize their grandest dreams regardless of means and background,” the 43-year-old wrote on X.

Joel Ssenyonyi, the leader of the opposition leader in the Ugandan parliament, told the AP he sees Mamdani’s victory as an inspiring political shift but somehow too distant for many Africans at home.

“It’s a big encouragement even to us here in Uganda that it’s possible,” said Ssenyonyi. “But we have a long way to get there.”

纽约新市长“叫板”特朗普:我知道你在看!

佐赫兰·马姆达尼(Zohran Mamdani)创造历史,当选纽约市首位穆斯林市长

(德国之声中文网)本周三(11月5日),34岁的佐赫兰·马姆达尼(Zohran Mamdani)创造历史,当选纽约市首位穆斯林市长。这次市长选举不仅关系到美国最大的城市,也恰巧是美国总统特朗普的家乡城市。而就在民主党人马姆达尼当选仅数小时后,他和特朗普就互相抨击了对方的政治方针。

“唐纳德·特朗普,我知道你正在看,我有四个字送给你:调大音量,”马姆达尼在他的胜选派对舞台上说道。“如果有人能向一个被唐纳德·特朗普背叛的国家展示如何击败他,那正是这座养育了他的城市。”

白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特(Karoline Leavitt)证实,特朗普当时确实在观看。

而特朗普对马姆达尼胜选不仅停留在观看,也迅速进行言语回击。周三,在迈阿密的一场商业会议上讲话时,他多次提到马姆达尼。

马姆达尼仅用一年时间,就从政坛新人到胜选纽约市长。支持他的选民以年轻人,有移民背景的人居多。

特朗普称马姆达尼是共产主义者

 

这位美国总统称,迈阿密“很快将成为那些逃离纽约共产主义人士的避难所”。

他说:“摆在所有美国人面前的决定再清楚不过了:我们要在共产主义和常识之间做出选择,”他还补充说,民主党人带来的是“一场经济噩梦”,而他的政策将提供“一场经济奇迹”。

特朗普11月5日参加迈阿密的一场商业会议,并多次提及纽约市长选举。

特朗普针对这位纽约新当选市长的尖锐言论并未结束,他暗示马姆达尼预示着一波民主党人涌入华盛顿。

特朗普说:“如果你想知道国会民主党人想对美国做什么,看看纽约的选举结果就知道了,他们的政党在那里任命了一位共产主义者担任这个美国最大城市的市长。”

另外,在接受美国广播公司福克斯新闻(Fox News)采访时,特朗普表示他愿意与马姆达尼对话,但强调这位新市长如果想取得成功,就需要尊重华盛顿——以及华盛顿对纽约的财政支持。

特朗普反复提及的“共产主义”针对马姆达尼在选战中做出的三点核心承诺。若能当选,他将让纽约的生活开销恢复到让大多数人可以承受的水平,包括给房租租金设上限,提供免费公交以及全民免费幼儿托管服务。

马姆达尼和妻子拉玛。拉玛·杜瓦吉 (Rama Duwaji)是叙利亚裔美国艺术家。

马姆达尼为何招致特朗普的怒火?

 

马姆达尼出生于乌干达,父亲是乌干达裔印度学者,美国哥大人类学教授。母亲是印度裔美籍电影导演,作品曾获奥斯卡提名。妻子拉玛·杜瓦吉 (Rama Duwaji)是叙利亚裔美国艺术家。马姆达尼在大学毕业后入籍成为美国公民。在选战中,他将自己塑造成反抗特朗普的化身,并将特朗普的反移民政策作为主要攻击议题。

马姆达尼在他的胜选之夜演讲中说:“纽约仍将是一座移民城市,一座由移民建立、由移民推动的城市,从今晚起,也将由一位移民领导。所以,特朗普总统,请听我说:想对付我们中的任何一个人,你必须先过我们所有人这道关。”

Great Barrier Reef may partially recover from 'grim future' if global warming stays below 2C

6 November 2025 at 10:11

The Great Barrier Reef has suffered mass bleaching events in recent years

The Great Barrier Reef is headed for a "grim future" and will suffer a "rapid coral decline" by 2050 but parts may recover if global warming is kept below 2C, a new study has found.

Researchers at the University of Queensland (UQ) used modelling to simulate the lifecycles of certain coral species and found that some were better at adapting to warmer oceans and could help new coral grow.

Reefs near cooler-water currents were also more resilient, giving a "glimmer of hope" to the natural wonder, which has suffered severe climate-induced heat stress in recent years.

The study warned that curbing carbon emissions was crucial to allow coral to recover and avoid a "near collapse" of the reef.

Dr Yves-Marie Bozec, who led the research, said the modelling of more than 3,800 individual reefs that make up the Great Barrier Reef looked at their "eco-evolutionary dynamics". This included how corals interact with each other, how they deal with warmer water and corals in naturally cooler areas.

"We ran all of those factors with the most up-to-date climate projections - and the news was not good," he said.

"We forecast a rapid coral decline before the middle of this century regardless of the emissions scenario."

The Great Barrier Reef is one of the world's most biodiverse ecosystems, stretching more than 2,300km (1,400 miles) off Australia's north-east coast.

It has suffered four significant marine heatwaves between 2016 and 2022, causing much of its coral to expel the algae which gives them life and colour - a process called bleaching, which is often fatal.

A recent report found that parts of the Great Barrier Reef had suffered the largest annual decline in coral cover since records began nearly 40 years ago.

Dr Bozec said some parts of the reef "may partially recover after 2050, but only if ocean warming is sufficiently slow to allow natural adaptation to keep pace with temperature changes".

"Adaptation may keep pace if global warming does not exceed two degrees by 2100. For that to happen, more action is needed globally to reduce carbon emissions which are driving climate change."

Dr Bozec said: "The window for meaningful action is closing rapidly but it hasn't shut".

Under the Paris agreement, almost 200 nations have pledged to limit global temperature rises to 1.5C and to keep them "well below" 2C above those recorded in pre-industrial times, generally considered to mean the late 19th Century.

Prof Peter Mumby, who also worked on the study, said they found "many reefs could persist under the Paris agreement target of two degrees of warming".

"However, higher emissions leading to faster temperature rises would drive most reefs to a near collapse," he said.

Prof Murphy said reefs in areas "where the water doesn't heat up so dramatically because it is well mixed, fared better than others" and reefs close to populations of corals that can regenerate were also healthier.

Identifying areas of the reef network that are more resilient will mean efforts to protect the reef can focus on "strategic parts" of the ecosystem, he added.

How caffeine can help you manage headaches and other tips

6 November 2025 at 10:45

Headaches are something almost all of us deal with at some point.

They can last from a couple of minutes to days and the pain can be sharp, dull, throbbing or stabbing and sometimes spread beyond your head to your scalp, face or even your neck.

Dr Xand van Tulleken, who hosts the BBC's What's Up Docs wellness podcast, knows the feeling all too well and says he gets headaches once a month or every six weeks and it "feels like someone's drilling into my eyeball".

While it's easy to panic about what might be behind a bad headache, Dr Katy Munro, a GP and expert at the National Migraine Centre, says it's rarely something serious.

"It's natural to worry that something is seriously wrong, but the chances of that are actually very small," she explains.

She advises that if it's your "first or worst headache, get it checked out by a doctor," but if you're getting a pattern of milder, recurring headaches, there are a few simple things you can try at home as well as seeing your GP.

1. How big was the impact on your day?

Dr Xand says understanding your own headaches can be surprisingly helpful as they often don't have a single cause so keeping a diary can help you spot patterns and triggers.

For some people, weather such as thunder and lightning could trigger it, while for others it might be sensitivity to light.

"The worst time for me is when we're driving in the autumn and the sun is low and the sun is flickering through the trees...it really aggravates," says Dr Munro.

It's worth noting down things like:

  • What you were doing when the headache started
  • What you ate or drank
  • How well you slept
  • The weather
  • For women, track your menstrual cycle, as headaches can be linked to hormonal changes

But, Dr Munro cautions that you shouldn't overdo it.

"I made the mistake of making mine very detailed, which was depressing. Instead keep it simple and maybe write a number from one to 10 to summarise the impact it had on your day.

"It's also useful to track how many crystal-clear days you have, not just the bad ones.

Your doctor can then review it to help identify patterns.

2. Use caffeine wisely

You might think that caffeine is something you should instantly avoid if you have a headache but Dr Munro says the truth is more nuanced.

In small, careful doses, it can make painkillers more effective if you are not having too much caffeine on a daily basis.

"Caffeine is a co-analgesic which means it can boost the effect of a painkiller," Dr Munro explains, but avoid it in the afternoon and evening as it can disrupt your sleep.

It's worth also thinking about your caffeine consumption more broadly - consuming lots of it every day can cause a caffeine overuse headache and if you suddenly stop, you might get a withdrawal headache.

3. Don't skip meals

What you eat and when may make a difference if you're suffering from headaches.

Dr Munro recommends following a diet similar to the Mediterranean one that is rich in protein, healthy fats and complex carbs which can help stabilise your energy levels.

You should avoid quick-release sugary snacks and definitely don't skip meals as that can be a common trigger.

Dr Munro says she found her headaches were helped by cutting out dairy and gluten, though that's not universal.

"I also found eating regularly and taking lunch to work made a difference," she says.

As well as thinking about food, Dr Munro says regular exercise, good sleep, stress management and staying hydrated can also help reduce headaches.

You should drink enough during the day so your pee is a pale clear colour and you don't feel thirsty.

4. Avoid painkillers with codeine

"There are lots of things, like painkillers or anti-nausea tablets, you can buy over the counter that may be helpful to manage headaches" says Dr Munro.

She cautions that you should avoid "anything containing codeine" as it can make some headaches occur more frequently and can worsen symptoms like nausea.

"Painkillers can work extremely well but it does depend on how severe your headache is.

"If they're becoming more frequent or intense, your GP can help you find a more suitable medication."

Make sure you don't regularly take painkillers on more than two days a week as this will reduce your risk of rebound headaches.

Why the battle still rages over land ownership in Scotland

6 November 2025 at 14:21

New land reform legislation has been approved by the Scottish Parliament

The question "who owns Scotland?" stirs up strong emotions.

This is not just about land. It deals with people, profit - and where power lies.

Scotland is unusual because it has one of the most concentrated patterns of land ownership anywhere in the western world.

Land reformers calculate that 421 individuals, corporations, asset management groups and foreign trusts own more than 40% of all the nation's rural land.

"It's shocking," said Dr Josh Doble, the director of policy and advocacy at Community Land Scotland.

"We are an international anomaly."

The Knoydart peninsula can only be reached by boat or a two-day hike

Lawmakers have been grappling with this issue for a long time but the pace of change has picked up since devolution in 1999.

The Land Reform (Scotland) Bill is the Scottish government's latest wide-ranging and controversial attempt to tackle the issue.

It aims to make community buy-outs easier, to provide tenants with more information about the management of their land, and to give ministers the power to break up some large estates at the point of sale.

SNP ministers say the law gives a voice to the voiceless, handing communities a greater say over their futures.

Opponents have called it an unworkable and unprecedented assault on private property rights. There has even been talk of "class war".

Sarah-Jane Laing of Scottish Land and Estates, which represents many large landowners, says the provisions within the act are being "driven by ideology".

She claims the Scottish government "want to see fragmentation and break up of estates as an end in itself" - an aim Ms Laing describes as "really damaging for people, jobs and nature".

Stephanie Harris said Knoydart had gone from strength to strength

The debate has its roots in the profit-driven clearances of the 18th and 19th centuries when landowners drove people from their estates to make way for sheep and cattle.

They know all about that in Knoydart in the west Highlands, a rugged peninsula accessible only by boat or a two-day hike.

In the 1850s, hundreds of Highlanders were violently evicted from Knoydart. Many were forced to emigrate to Canada.

It was one of the events which led to a public inquiry into conditions in the Highlands and, in 1886, to Scotland's first major land reform.

The Crofters Holdings Act was enacted by William Gladstone's Liberal government and granted security of tenure to small-scale tenant farmers known as crofters.

These days Knoydart is under community ownership. In 1999 locals bought up much of the land where they lived and worked and they now say the area is thriving.

The Old Forge in Inverie is the most remote pub on the British mainland

The peninsula is home to Great Britain's most remote pub, The Old Forge in Inverie, which is run by Stephanie Harris.

She told us that Knoydart had gone from strength to strength over the past 25 years.

"There's lots more people live here, there's lots of kids here now, there's more private businesses and community enterprises going," she explained.

"There's a lot more opportunities and the fact people still want to come here I think is showing that it's working."

Davie Newton was instrumental in much of that change, building and renovating a pub, shop, village hall and more while also helping to run the Knoydart Foundation which manages the land.

He said community ownership had led to the planting of 600,000 trees, the revitalisation of a hydro-electric scheme and the building of many new homes.

"As the community makes decisions over its own future, it gains confidence by making decisions and getting them right, it gains experience by making decisions and getting them wrong," he said.

The new Land Reform Bill aims to make it easier for other communities to follow in Knoydart's footsteps.

Local residents say there are now more opportunities in Knoydart

But clauses which will hand ministers powers to force the break-up of some big estates are deplored by many landowners and their representatives.

Sarah-Jane Laing said it was not true to say that "big is bad" when it comes to Scottish estates.

"It's almost impossible to deliver some of the peatland restoration, the river restoration - alongside building houses, bringing forward renewables, creating businesses - unless you have scale of ownership," she said.

Scotland's biggest private landowner is the Danish billionaire Anders Povlsen who is well known for his interest in "rewilding".

Ms Laing met us at a more modest but still fairly large landholding – Preston Hall Farm in Midlothian to demonstrate her point – that big can in fact be good.

The 650-hectare estate is home to a range of enterprises, from coffee roasters to picture framers to a pottery studio.

"It's the variety of things that are going on which makes it exciting to manage and run," said the landowner, Will Callander.

"To be blunt, we are not making big sums of money. We're not sitting here driving fast cars and living the high life.

"We live here, we work here, and we want to be surrounded by fun, exciting, happy people."

Dr Josh Doble of Community Land Scotland wants more radical reform

Mr Callander has concerns about the latest land reform legislation which has already generated some talk of legal action to challenge some of its provisions.

"Certainty is what we need," he said.

The new bill was supported by Labour and the Liberal Democrats but the Conservatives voted against, calling it unworkable and devastating.

The Scottish Greens abstained, saying it fell far short of what Scotland needed – and accusing the SNP of failing to stand up to landed elites.

Many land reform campaigners agree with the call for more radical reform.

Dr Josh Doble said Scotland had a rural housing crisis, growing inequality, depleted biodiversity and limited economic opportunities for local people.

"All of that stems back to the fact that we have a very small number of people who control what happens in those areas," he argued.

"If we had a much more democratic and equitable way in which land was shared amongst people, we would start to address those issues in an actually meaningful way."

Like many claims in this debate, that is hotly disputed.

Hundreds of years after they began, battles over land reform look set to rage on in 21st century Scotland.

郭台铭母亲逝世 享年100岁

6 November 2025 at 19:06

台湾鸿海集团创始人郭台铭在社交平台发文,悼念母亲初永真逝世。

郭台铭星期四(11月6日)在脸书写道,母亲郭初永真当天上午8时安祥辞世于台北医学大学附设医院,享嵩寿100岁。

郭台铭表示,他将遵从母嘱,不发讣告、不设灵堂、不办公祭。

据壹苹新闻网报道,初永真1925年出生于山东,1946年于青岛与郭台铭父亲郭龄瑞结婚,之后随夫赴台定居。当时经济环境困顿,身为一名警察的妻子,她在有限资源下拉拔多名子女成长。

初永真不仅辛苦持家,更是郭台铭创业路上的关键支持者。1974年,郭台铭创立鸿海时资金调度极为困难,第一笔创业资金10万元新台币(约4222新元),正是母亲标会所得。在母亲支持下,郭台铭创办的鸿海成为全球最大的电子代工厂,他也因此后来成为台湾首富。

郭台铭曾在2023年于脸书发文称,母亲是他的心灵支柱,即使工作再忙碌,只要有空档就会常伴母亲身边。他也将母亲在小时候常说的做人要和她的名字一样,“永远真诚”的教诲铭记于心。

内蒙呼和浩特在零基预算编制中清理252个低效无效项目

6 November 2025 at 18:05

修订版《党政机关厉行节约反对浪费条例》印发后,中国官方公布,内蒙古呼和浩特市在2025年零基预算编制中,清理低效无效项目252个,压减项目预算17亿元(人民币,下同,3.11亿新元)。

第一财经曾报道,零基预算是以零为基点编制的预算,不考虑部门单位往年预算情况。

中国财政部官网10月发文介绍,呼和浩特市被确定为内蒙古“加强财政资源和预算统筹”及“落实习惯过紧日子要求”专项试点地区。

文章称,呼和浩特方面坚决落实新修订的《党政机关厉行节约反对浪费条例》,进一步拓展过紧日子内涵外延,研究制定关于进一步强化预算约束落实习惯过紧日子要求的四方面20条具体举措,包括严控差旅、培训等支出标准,禁止超范围、超标准配置资产,严格控制政府楼堂馆所建设,强化资产共享和绩效结果运用等,系统推进支出压减和资金效益提升。

呼和浩特方面也将过紧日子作为预算编制长期坚持原则,在保障党政机关正常运转的基础上,呼和浩特市本级公用经费按定额标准压减20%,非刚性支出按上年决算数5%压减,腾出财力用于“三保”支出等方面。

在2025年零基预算编制中,通过“绩效+预算联审”机制,清理低效无效项目252个,压减项目预算17亿元,一般性支出同比减少1.3亿元,节约财力重点投向“三保”(保基本民生、保工资、保运转)支出及大事要事保障等关键领域。

文章称,呼和浩特方面严控“三公”经费(政府部门在购买使用公车、因公出国,以及公务接待方面的公共开支),2024年全市“三公”经费支出继续保持“零增长”。加强目标实现程度和预算执行情况监控,对偏离目标较大、效果实现较低的项目及时纠偏,2024年开展30个重点项目事中评价,收回低效无效资金5.3亿元,及时纠偏止损,避免闲置浪费。

呼和浩特方面也加强政府投资项目全生命周期管理,严控低效无效投资,对已形成的大额项目支出探索节约路径,将节省资金用于民生急需和重点领域。2024年以来完成财政投资评审项目148个,节约财政资金26.8亿元,核减率22.2%。

在不久前刚结束的APEC韩国峰会上,台湾代表林信义与中国国家主席习近平全程无互动

(德国之声中文网)中国外交部新闻发言人毛宁周三(11月5日)在例行记者会上说,“在一个中国原则下作为地区经济体参与APEC,遵循APEC有关谅解备忘录的规定和惯例,这是中国台北参与APEC的政治前提。在这个问题上,中方的立场是明确和坚定的。”

中国国台办发言人新任发言人张晗周三晚些时候也在北京表示,“作为明年亚太经合组织(APEC)活动的东道主,我们将按照一个中国原则和APEC有关谅解备忘录的规定和惯例处理台湾地区参会事宜。”

台湾APEC代表会晤美财长 美防长呼吁东盟对华立场坚定

APEC会议是台湾能够参与的少数几个国际多边会议之一。

2024年、2025年APEC領袖峰會台湾均由林信義擔任領袖代表出席

台湾外交部长林佳龙周三接受媒体采访时表示,去年APEC在秘鲁开会时,中国争取次年主办权以书面承诺,支持台湾平等参与,特别是出席者安全。他强调,中国对于台湾明年赴深圳参加APEC峰会附加了条件,在国际上违反了当时的承诺。台湾将捍卫自身权利,也会协调理念相近国家加以反制。

多年以来,台湾以“中华台北”的名义参与APEC峰会的活动,为避免政治敏感问题,台湾总统从不出席这个系列的活动。目前,APEC成员国中没有与台湾建立正式外交关系的国家。

中国上一次主办APEC峰会是在2014年,当时,两岸关系在马英九总统执政期内比当下缓和得多,马英九与北京签署了具有里程碑意义的《海峡两岸经济合作架构协议》(ECFA),为台湾经济带来收益。即使在民进党执政后,ECFA仍部分有效运作,台湾出口至大陆的产品仍享受关税优惠,其总量占台湾出口的约30%。

美国表态:台湾应充分平等地参与深圳APEC

在北京表达台湾只能在一中前提下参加明年的深圳APCE之后,美国国务院周三(11月5日)即表示,亚太经合组织APEC成员去年已达成共识,同意中国主办2026年年度峰会,并且APEC成员致力于确保全部成员平等参与APEC的所有活动。

美国国务院发言人指出,“美国坚持所有APEC成员,包括台湾(称为中华台北),应充分、平等地参与,这符合APEC的指导方针、规则和惯例,这也是中国在2026年主办APEC会议的申请中所确认的。”

他还表示,“我们最优先考虑的是美国公民的安全,我们将继续敦促中国落实安全安排和规程,以保障所有与会者在中国参加APEC会议时的安全。”
