Guardians of Cona Lake: A Family’s Devotion to Nature across Generations

BEIJING, July 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from China.org.cn on wildlife rangers in Xizang:


Guardians of Cona Lake: A Family’s Devotion to Nature across Generations

Nestled at an altitude of 4,650 meters in the heart of the Selincuo National Nature Reserve in Xizang, China, Cona Lake is one of the highest freshwater lakes in the world. Spanning nearly 300 square kilometers, the lake sustains a rich biodiversity and is revered by local residents as a sacred site.

The wildlife rangers, dedicated to preserving Cona Lake’s pristine beauty, can often be seen patrolling its shores, ensuring the protection of both the lake and its surrounding ecosystem. Among them is Pema Tsering, who carries forward a legacy of environmental stewardship begun by his father, Samtsi.

In the 1980s, long before official wildlife ranger programs were in place, Samtsi took it upon himself to patrol and protect Cona Lake, driven by a deep reverence for the land and its lifeforms. “Back then, there was no such title,” Pema recalls. “My father simply believed the mountains, the lakes, and the animals were our friends. Every life, no matter how small, carries the quiet strength of the snow and water.”

Today, Pema serves as a member of the ranger team, and Samtsi, now retired, continues to walk the lakeside—often accompanied by his grandchildren. Their bond spans three generations, each instilled with the belief that protecting nature is both duty and blessing.

Under the Selincuo Reserve’s management, the ranger team has grown more structured, combining fixed and flexible patrol routes and involving community volunteers to curb illegal hunting and habitat damage. “Environmental protection isn’t a task for one group,” says local Party Secretary. “It’s a shared responsibility to preserve our homeland for the generations to come.”

As the Qinghai-Xizang Railway winds past, mirrored in the lake’s glassy surface are not just snow peaks and migratory birds, but the enduring spirit of guardians like Samtsi and his family—quiet stewards of a vibrant, living landscape.

Revolutionizing Cleanliness in High-Tech Industries and Processes
In sectors like automotive, electronics, aerospace, and medical manufacturing, even microscopic contaminants can compromise adhesion in critical processes such as bonding, coating, printing or sealing. Traditional cleaning methods often rely on solvents or wet-chemical treatments, but HydroPlasma® delivers a chemical-free, sustainable alternative using only compressed air, electricity, and water. This advanced technology not only enhances cleaning efficiency but also supports environmentally responsible production.

How HydroPlasma® Works: Science Meets Sustainability
HydroPlasma®‘s patented process injects water into a plasma jet, where it ionizes into a highly reactive cleaning stream. A precision nozzle directs this stream onto surfaces, dissolving residues with a detergent-like effect—no harsh chemicals required.

Unlike conventional methods, HydroPlasma®:

  • Removes previously stubborn contaminants (e.g., fingerprints, inorganic residues)
  • Preserves delicate substrates with a cooling effect that prevents thermal damage
  • Boosts surface energy for improved wettability in downstream processes

Complementing Openair-Plasma® for Unmatched Flexibility
While Openair-Plasma® remains ideal for light organic contaminants (dust, oils), HydroPlasma® extends capabilities to challenging inorganic residues. Together, they offer a VOC-free, scalable cleaning suite for industries demanding zero-compromise cleanliness.

Applications Across Industries
HydroPlasma® integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, including automotive manufacturing, electronics, and precision optics. Its gentle yet powerful cleaning is ideal for:

  • Automotive: Ensuring flawless coating adhesion and structural bonding
  • Medical Devices: Meeting sterile surface standards
  • Aerospace: Preparing critical components for coatings

Sustainability at the Core
By eliminating solvents and reducing waste, HydroPlasma® helps manufacturers cut carbon footprints while maintaining workplace safety and process reliability.

What is Openair-Plasma®?
Plasma is also known as the fourth state of matter, alongside solid, liquid and gas. When additional energy is added to a gas, it becomes ionized and enters the energetic plasma state. Whether plastic, metal, glass or paper, plasma technology is used to change the properties of the surface according to the requirements of the process.

Vietnam Launches NDAChain, the National Blockchain Platform to Accelerate Digital Data Infrastructure by 2026

NDAChain, Vietnam’s National Blockchain Platform, has been launched to serve as the trusted, transparent, and secure verification layer for the country’s National Data Center, paving the way for a more reliable digital economy.

HANOI, Vietnam, July 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In a significant step toward building a secure, transparent, and scalable national digital ecosystem, Vietnam has officially announced the deployment of NDAChain, its national blockchain platform. Developed by the National Data Association and operated by the Data Innovation and Exploitation Center (under the National Data Center, Ministry of Public Security), NDAChain is positioned as the foundational layer of data verification for government and private sector systems.

NDAChain addresses long-standing challenges of centralized data models such as vulnerability to cyberattacks, poor scalability, and limited global integration by offering a decentralized layer of trust for critical national systems, including e-government, finance, healthcare, logistics, and education.

Vietnam has chosen a hybrid data architecture that blends centralized and decentralized components. NDAChain acts as a protective layer for the nation’s live data, critical to our digital society and economy,” said Mr. Nguyen Huy, Head of Technology at the National Data Association.

Why a National Blockchain?

With a population of over 100 million and a rapidly accelerating digital transformation, Vietnam is generating data at exponential rates. The National Data Center is designed to be the central repository for citizen and national data. However, protecting this data from forgery, leakage, and misuse demands a next-generation layer of verification.

Blockchain, known for its immutability, transparency, and decentralized nature, provides an ideal mechanism for authenticating and tracing data origin especially in high-stakes, cross-sectoral interactions.

How NDAChain Works

NDAChain is a Layer 1 permissioned blockchain featuring a consortium of 49 public-private validator nodes, operated by state agencies and major enterprises such as the National Data Center, Ministry of Public Security, SunGroup, Zalo, Masan, MISA, Sovico, and VNVC.

Each validator node includes: A distributed ledger for transparent transaction records; Smart contracts for automating processes; Identity verification modules integrated with Vietnam’s VNeID and other national identity systems.

The entire platform runs on a Proof-of-Authority (PoA) consensus protocol, enhanced with Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP) for security and capable of processing up to 3,600 transactions per second, with low latency and high scalability.

From Digital Identity to Product Traceability

Beyond its use in digital government, NDAChain also powers NDA DID, a decentralized identity solution that enables citizens to verify the identity of counterparties during transactions, service access, or digital contract signing. Through the NDAKey application, users can verify identities in seconds – helping prevent scams and impersonation.

In addition, NDAChain is integrated with NDATrace, Vietnam’s national platform for product identification, authentication, and traceability. Each product is issued a unique identifier (UID), compliant with GS1 standards and compatible with the EU’s EBSI system. This enables Vietnamese businesses to join global supply chains and build consumer trust with verified product origin.

Vision to 2026: A National Data Ecosystem

By the end of 2025, NDAChain will be fully integrated into the National Data Center and gradually expanded to local governments and universities by 2026. The next phase will focus on workforce development, international collaboration, and building Layer 2 applications tailored for various sectors.

Thanks to its open architecture and pro-integration policies, NDAChain is not only a national technology infrastructure but also a launchpad for startups, tech firms, and private organizations to develop digital services. These may include identity wallets, anti-counterfeit solutions, traceability platforms, or digital notarization services across verticals.

NDAChain In The National Ecosystem
NDAChain In The National Ecosystem

From Vietnam to the World

More than 50 countries have launched national blockchain platforms, including BSN (China), EBSI (EU), and Klaytn (South Korea). Vietnam’s approach stands out by combining public-private collaboration, adherence to international standards (W3C DID, GDPR), and deep integration with national data systems, reflecting a long-term vision for data infrastructure and digital economic development.

“NDAChain is more than a technological platform – it represents Vietnam’s aspiration for digitization, integration, and sustainable growth,” a representative from the Data Innovation and Exploitation Center emphasized.
