Man of the match? Try machine: China's T1 takes the pitch for robot world cup
BEIJING, Aug 3 — On a football pitch in Beijing, 'T1' is practising shots and taking up positions. T1 is no ordinary player, however, but a gold medal-winning humanoid robot training for the first World Humanoid Robot Games, taking place in Beijing from August 15. T1 is part of a race to take the lead in humanoid robotics, as China looks to become more self-sufficient in advanced technologies. The Games will bring together teams from more than 20 countries for events ranging from track and field to dance and martial arts, as well as practical applications such as industrial handling and medical services. Chen Penghui, a member of Tsinghua University's Hephaestus team, works on a computer next to T1 humanoid robots developed by Booster Robotics, at a football pitch in preparation for competitions at the inaugural World Humanoid Robot Games, at the National Speed Skating Oval in Beijing August 1, 2025. — Reuters pic T1 and its two teammates, fielded by Tsinghua University's Hephaestus team, made history for China last month by winning gold in the 'Humanoid, adult size' category of the 28-year-old RoboCup Humanoid League in Brazil. 'The Chinese government is actively promoting humanoid robot development,' said Zhao Mingguo, Chief Scientist at Booster Robotics, maker of the T1. 'To advance technology, the government is actively organising competitive events, and this sports games is one such experience.' While some may dismiss such events as gimmicks, industry experts and participants see them as a decisive spur to advance humanoid robots toward practical real-world deployment.

'Playing football is a testing and training ground for ... helping us refine our capabilities,' Zhao said. And just as in real life, moving on from the training ground is often a challenge.

But the performance of humanoid robots still depends to a great extent on environmental variables such as the surface and hardness of the ground and the gradient of any slopes, according to Hephaestus's Chen Penghui. It wouldn't be the first time a football team had visited a new venue and bemoaned the state of the pitch. — Reuters

FGV delisting process to begin on Aug 28, says Anwar

(Bernama pic) KUALA LUMPUR : Felda can begin to independently determine the direction of FGV Holdings Bhd after the company's delisting from Bursa Malaysia, which will begin on Aug 28, said Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim. He said Felda, its cooperative and settlers, could then fully focus on the agency's original mission of safeguarding the rights, returns, and interests of the settlers. 'We can proceed with the delisting starting Aug 28. This means Felda is no longer bound. It can decide its own direction and provide assurances to the Felda Cooperative so that the benefits and interests of the settlers remain the top priority,' he said at an event here today. Anwar said he and Felda chairman Ahmad Shabery Cheek and colleagues would ensure Felda receives clear guidance from the government to make sure FGV returns to Felda's original mission. FGV informed Bursa Malaysia on Tuesday that Felda had acquired 91.73% of the company's total issued shares. FGV's shares are expected to be suspended from trading five market days after the offer for all remaining shares closes on Aug 15.

RM100,000 for each Felda village for project of their choice
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim visits a stall at the 2025 Mega 3D Carnival. (Bernama pic) KUALA LUMPUR : Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has announced an allocation of RM100,000 for each village under the Federal Land Development Authority (Felda) to implement development projects of their choice. He said the approach of allowing villagers to choose their preferred projects is in line with the government's aspiration, which emphasises consultation and community empowerment. 'I have prepared the allocation, with each Felda village receiving RM100,000 to decide which project they want to implement. 'This is not Felda management deciding what project to undertake. Want to buy a tractor? Build a fish pond? Purchase a drone? You decide what you want; I'm providing RM100,000 for each village,' he said when launching the 2025 Mega 3D Carnival at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre here today. Also present were deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, communications minister Fahmi Fadzil and Felda chairman Ahmad Shabery Cheek.
