SHANGHAI/SINGAPORE – China's central bank ramped up liquidity injection when rolling over maturing medium-term policy loans for the fifth consecutive month on Monday, while keeping interest rate unchanged, matching market expectations. The People's Bank of China (PBOC) said it was keeping the rate on 170 billion yuan ($24.75 billion) worth of one-year medium-term lending facility (MLF) loans to some financial institutions unchanged at 2.75 percent from the previous operation. In a Reuters poll of 29 market watchers conducted last week, all participants expected no change to the MLF rate, while 23 forecast fund offerings would exceed maturity.

KUALA LUMPUR, May 22 — The High Court has today dismissed Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng's bid to defer his payment of RM2 million damages in a defamation lawsuit he lost, pending appeal. Lim was previously ordered by the High Court in March to pay RM2 million in compensation and RM250,000 costs to MonSpace (M) Sdn Bhd and its founder, Datuk Seri Jessy Lai. Lim's lawyer Guok Ngek Seong said Judge Datuk Akhtar Tahir rejected the stay application on the grounds that there are no special circumstances to suspend the judgment.

Cancer Council WA's LiveLighter® program has launched a new campaign to help people eat well on a budget, following research* which found that almost eight out of 10 people surveyed had recently taken action to reduce the cost of food bills. Cancer Council WA Food and Movement Programs Manager, Ainslie Sartori, said with the rising cost of living, the aim of the Boost Your Budget campaign is to support West Australian adults to make healthy snacks and meals at home. "We know from our research that people are eating out less and preparing more food at home, they are buying less meat, and choosing cheaper versions of food, so the Boost Your Budget campaign offers money-saving tips and resources for at home and the supermarket," Ms Sartori said.

Researchers are more likely to pen scientific papers with co-authors of the same gender, a pattern that cannot be simply explained by the varying gender representation across scientific disciplines and time, according to joint research from Cornell and the University of Washington. Mining a digital corpus of 560,000 published research articles over a 50-year period, the research team observed consistent gender homophily - the tendency of authors to collaborate with others who share their gender. While this observation by itself is not new, the researchers went further, using novel methods to rule out seemingly logical explanations - like a field's gender balance, say, or a field's authorship norms for writing research papers.

After several weeks of public hearing, the Senate Blue ribbon committee established the direct complicity of corrupt officers of the Bureau of Immigration in human trafficking and 'VIP escort services' of international fugitives in and out of the country. At the same time, it plunged the Bureau into the public's lowest esteem. And the employees, now laughingstock of the 'yearbook meme', have become highly demoralized. These all happened under the watch of long time BI employee now commissioner Norman Garcera Tansingco who worked as chief of staff of former commissioner Marcelino Libanan from 2007 to 2017.

NSW Department of Primary Industries (NSW DPI) will undertake a new risk-based approach to all new emergency zoning in the ongoing fight against the destructive Varroa mite. NSW DPI Deputy Director General - Biosecurity and Food Safety, John Tracey said the National Management Group has endorsed a proposal from NSW that zoning distances could be different depending on the individual risk of each infestation. "The Response has 14 months of experience understanding levels of risk for Varroa mite spread, and as we have recently demonstrated in the almond pollination sites in southern NSW, a different approach can be effective," he said.
