China's 'inaction' eroding leverage
China has been able to do little more than stand back and watch as war between its key partner Iran and Israel harms its hard-fought leverage in the Middle East, say analysts. Beijing has sought to frame itself as a mediator in the region, facilitating a 2023 rapprochement between Saudi Arabia and Iran and portraying itself as a more neutral actor in the Israel-Palestinian conflict than its rival the United States. And its position as the largest purchaser of Iranian oil has served as a crucial lifeline for Teheran as its economy is battered by crippling international sanctions. But as Israel and Iran engaged in an unprecedented exchange of attacks and the US struck key targets on Iranian soil in the past week, Beijing has offered little beyond calls for de-escalation. "Beijing has offered Teheran no real help — just rhetoric that paints China as the principled alternative while it stays safely on the sidelines," said Craig Singleton, senior China fellow at the Foundation for Defence of Democracies think tank. China, he said, "sticks to rhetoric — condemnations, United Nations (UN) statements, talk of 'dialogue' — because over-promising and under-delivering would spotlight its power-projection limits". "The result is a conspicuously thin response that underscores how little real heft China brings to Iran when the shooting starts." China — alongside its "no limits" partner Russia — has long been a key backer of Iran, deepening ties in the wake of the US withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action nuclear deal in 2018. President Xi Jinping described relations as "strategic" in a 2023 meeting with Iran's then-president Ebrahim Raisi, and backed Teheran in its fight against "bullying". Liu Qiang, a retired Chinese senior colonel, was even more explicit in an article on the academic website Aisixiang this month. "Iran's survival is a matter of China's national security," said the director of the Academic Committee of the Shanghai International Centre for Strategic Studies. Beijing, he insisted, must take "proactive measures" in light of the recent war to ensure that Teheran "will not be broken by the military conflict" or "jointly strangled by the US and Israel". Analysts say Beijing's ties with Teheran are central to its efforts to ensure a regional counterbalance against both the US and Israel as well as the Gulf States. "Iran fits into Beijing's broader campaign to counterbalance US-led hegemony and to a lesser extent Nato (North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) encroachment," said Tuvia Gering, non-resident fellow at the Atlantic Council's Global China Hub. Those efforts have gone into overdrive following blows to other "Axis of resistance" players since the start of the Gaza war — the collapse of Bashar Al-Assad's rule in Syria and the degradation of Hamas and Hizbollah in fighting with Israel. "Beijing has sought to prevent a total unravelling of Iran's regional role," said Gering, pointing to Chinese efforts to resurrect the nuclear deal. China condemned recent US strikes on Iran and called for parties in the region, "especially Israel", to de-escalate. And it has called for a political solution to help a declared ceasefire hold. Fighting last month between India and Pakistan saw Beijing furnish its long-time allies in Islamabad with state-of-the-art military gear. Analysts don't expect China to extend the same courtesy to its comrades in Teheran, given the risk of direct confrontation with the US. "Iran needs more than statements at the UN or missile components," said Andrea Ghiselli, a lecturer at the University of Exeter. "It needs air defences and fighter jets, which are things that China could provide but would require much time to be put into use — not to mention the likely extremely negative reaction by Israel and, especially now that it directly involves the US," he added. The US has urged China to use its influence on Iran to help deter its leaders from shutting down the Strait of Hormuz, a vital route for oil and gas. But Ahmed Aboudouh, an associate fellow with the Chatham House Middle East and North Africa Programme, was sceptical that Beijing has the leverage. "China's position in the Middle East after this conflict" has been badly affected, he said.

Destini secures two agreements to overhaul electric train components from SMH Rail
KUALA LUMPUR: Destini Bhd 's indirect subsidiary, Trovon Malaysia Sdn Bhd, entered into two agreements to undertake overhaul works on electric train components of 58 train sets operating on the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) Line 1 (Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line). In a Bursa Malaysia filing today, Destini said that Trovon Malaysia entered into two sub-contractor for the supply of parts agreements with SMH Rail Sdn Bhd on June 3, 2025. It said the company would undertake the overhaul of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) and brake caliper equipment fitted to 58 Inspiro platform electric train sets. The contract amount was not disclosed in the filing. The works are scheduled to run over a 20-month period from June 2025 to January 2027. Destini said the agreements mark a significant expansion of Trovon's role in the regional railway maintenance and component overhaul sector. "Trovon has secured two concurrent scopes with SMH Rail, which cover HVAC and brake caliper overhauls for the MRT Line 1 (Sungai Buloh-Kajang Line), reflecting SMH's confidence in Trovon's ability to deliver rolling stock component reconditioning and upgrades. "This engagement strengthens Trovon's position as a technically capable and locally embedded subsystem maintainer,' it said. Destini noted that the project aligned with the Malaysian Rail Supporting Industry Roadmap 2030, which encourages greater local content and reduced dependency on foreign original equipment manufacturers. "By executing this scope locally with Malaysian engineering and project management capabilities, Trovon contributes meaningfully to the national objective of creating a sustainable and self-reliant rail industry ecosystem,' the company added. Destini stated that the agreements are expected to contribute positively to the company's earnings for the financial year ending June 30, 2025, and throughout the duration of the project. - Bernama
