MANILA Authentic Texas Rangers Jersey , Sept. 26 (Xinhua) -- The Asian Development Bank (ADB) predicted Tuesday the Philippine economy to grow 6.5 percent this year as robust domestic demand, including higher public investments in infrastructure and the government's socioeconomic agenda-push growth higher.


In an updated Asian Development Outlook (ADO) 2017, the Manila-based bank said infrastructure Authentic Toronto Blue Jays Jersey , social programs and tax reforms that the government will implement will help fuel the country's economy.


ADB said the Philippine gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to rise from the 6.4 percent in April forecast to 6.5 percent. GDP growth in 2018 will accelerate to 6.7 percent through increased public investment and household consumption.


"The concerted effort by the Philippine government to improve public project implementation is bearing fruit, as public investment programs help drive continued economic expansion," said Richard Bolt Cheap Chicago Cubs Jersey , ADB country director for the Philippines.


"A strong focus on infrastructure investment and implementation of tax reform will see the country continue its growth momentum through 2018," he added.


The Philippine economy expanded by 6.4 percent in the first half of 2017.

LONDON， Aug. 8 (Xinhua) -- The University of Oxford Monday announced that its researchers had achieved a quantum logic gate with record-breaking 99.9 percent precision， reaching the benchmark required theoretically to build a quantum computer.


The team achieved the logic gate， which places two atoms in a state of quantum entanglement and is the fundamental building block of quantum computing， with a precision substantially greater than the previous world record， according to the university.


Quantum entanglement is a phenomenon that occurs when two particles stay connected， such that an action on one affects the other， even when they are separated by great distances. This mechanism is at the heart of quantum technologies.


""The precision of the gate is a measure of how well this works: in our case， 99.9 percent precision means that， on average， 999 times out of 1，000 we will have generated the entangled state correctly， and one time out of 1，000 something went wrong，"" said Professor David Lucas from the University of Oxford， who is one of the authors of the study.


Quantum computers， which function according to the laws of quantum physics， have the potential to dwarf the processing power of today's computers， able to process huge amounts of information all at once.


A quantum computer is a machine that processes information according to the rules of quantum physics， which govern the behavior of microscopic particles at the scale of atoms and smaller， said Dr Chris Ballance from the University of Oxford， another author of the study.


Quantum technology is a complex area， but one analogy that has been used to explain the concept of quantum computing is that it is like being able to read all of the books in a library at the same time， whereas conventional computing is like having to read them one after another， according to the University of Oxford.


""Achieving a logic gate with 99.9 percent precision is another important milestone on the road to developing a quantum computer. A quantum logic gate on its own does not constitute a quantum computer， but you can't build the computer without them，"" said Professor Lucas.


The study is carried out by researchers from the Networked Quantum Information Technologies Hub， which is led by the University of Oxford， and has been published in the journal Physical Review Letters.

BEIJING, April 9 (Xinhua) -- China reiterated construction and maintenance works on some islands and reefs in the Nansha Islands fall within its sovereignty on Thursday.


China has indisputable sovereignty over the Nansha Islands and their adjacent waters Cheap Baltimore Orioles Jersey , said Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying, noting the construction works were reasonable and lawful, and not directed against any country.


China's purpose is to perfect the functions of those islands and reefs Cheap Atlanta Braves Jersey , and improve the working and and living conditions of its personnel stationed on those islands, said Hua at a routine press briefing.


She said the construction and maintenance works will enable China to further safeguard its territorial sovereignty as well as maritime rights and interests.


They will also help China to fulfill its international responsibilities in the areas of maritime search-and-rescue, disaster prevention and mitigation Cheap Arizona Diamondbacks Jersey , marine research, meteorological observation, environmental protection Cheap Boston Red Sox Jersey , navigation security and fishery production.


Hua reiterated China's adherence to a peaceful development path and defensive national defense policy.


"We are in favor of solving disputes with directly concerned countries through negotiations and working with ASEAN countries to jointly safeguard peace and stability of the South China Sea," she said.


Hua said some countries had taken double standards regarding the construction works of China and other related countries in China's Nansha Islands. She did not name a specific country.


"We hope countries concerned would honor their commitments of not taking sides on the South China Sea issue, and do more to help regional peace and stability Cheap Chicago White Sox Jersey ," said the spokesperson.


After reclaiming the islands and reefs of Nansha Islands, their functions will become integrated and comprehensive, she said Cheap Cincinnati Reds Jersey , adding that they will not only serve necessary needs of military defense, but are more for civil demands.


The South China Sea is far from the continent and dotted with shipping lanes and fishing grounds, she said Cheap Cleveland Indians Jersey , adding that the area has been strongly affected by the monsoon climate, which cause frequent shipwrecks.
