Amid Covid-19 surge in China, Japan and South Korea have announced fresh curbs for travellers from China.
South Korea has imposed visa restrictions, testing requirements apart from limiting flights for travellers from China.
Meanwhile, Japan has made COVID-19 tests for all passengers arriving from China a must as an emergency measure against surging infections there

China to resume passport issuance for tourism to citizens from this day

The announcement on Tuesday adds to abrupt changes that are rolling back some of the world's strictest anti-virus controls as President Xi Jinping's government tries to reverse an economic slump.

China says it will resume issuing passports for tourism in another big step away from anti-virus controls that isolated the country for almost three years, setting up a potential flood of Chinese going abroad for next month's Lunar New Year holiday.
The announcement on Tuesday adds to abrupt changes that are rolling back some of the world's strictest anti-virus controls as President Xi Jinping's government tries to reverse an economic slump.
Rules that confined millions of people to their homes kept China's infection rate low but fuelled public frustration and crushed economic growth.

The latest decision could send free-spending Chinese tourists to revenue-starved destinations in Asia and Europe for Lunar New Year, which begins on January 22 and usually is the country's busiest travel season. But it also presents a danger they might spread COVID-19 as infections surge in China.
Japan, India, South Korea and Taiwan have responded to the wave of infections by requiring virus tests for visitors from China.
China stopped issuing visas to foreigners and passports to its own people at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020.
The National Immigration Administration of China said it will start taking applications from January 8 for passports for tourists to go abroad.
The agency said it will take applications to extend, renew or reissue visas but gave no indication when they might be issued to first-time applicants.
China will &ldquo;gradually resume&rdquo; admitting foreign visitors, the agency said. It gave no indication when tourist travel from abroad might resume.
The changes will &ldquo;create better conditions for orderly cross-border travel" and "bring more benefits to global economic development,&rdquo; said a foreign ministry spokesman, Wang Wenbin.
China will &ldquo;work with all countries&rdquo; to &ldquo;restore safety and stability to global,industrial and supply chains and promote world economic recovery&rdquo;, Wang said.
Health experts and economists expect the ruling Communist Party to keep limits on travel into China until at least mid-2023 while it carries out a campaign to vaccinate millions of elderly people. Experts say that is necessary to prevent a public health crisis.
During the pandemic, Chinese with family emergencies or work travel deemed important could obtain passports, but some students and businesspeople with visas to go to foreign countries were blocked by border guards from leaving.
The handful of foreign businesspeople and others who were allowed into China were quarantined for up to one week.
Before the pandemic, China was the biggest source of foreign tourists for most of its Asian neighbours and an important market for Europe and the United States.
The government has dropped or eased most quarantine, testing and other restrictions within China, joining the United States, Japan and other governments in trying to live with the virus instead of stamping out transmission.
Japan and India have begun requiring virus tests for travellers from China. South Korea tests all visitors with elevated temperatures. South Korea says anyone who tests positive will be quarantined at home or in a hotel for a week.
South Korean officials said possible additional measures for arrivals from China will be announced on Friday.
US officials, speaking on condition of anonymity to relate internal discussions, said Washington is considering taking similar steps.
Taiwan on Wednesday announced visitors from China will be tested starting January 1.
On Monday, the Chinese government said it would scrap quarantine requirements for travellers arriving from abroad, also effective from January 8.
Foreign companies welcomed the change as an important step to revive slumping business activity.
Business groups have warned global companies were shifting investment away from China because foreign executives were blocked from visiting.
The American Chamber of Commerce in China says more than 70 per cent of companies that responded to a poll this month expect the impact of the latest wave of outbreaks to last no more than three months, ending in early 2023.
The government has stopped reporting nationwide case numbers but announcements by some cities indicate at least tens and possibly hundreds of millions of people might have been infected since the surge began in early October.
Experts have forecast 1 million to 2 million deaths in China through the end of 2023.
Also on Monday, the government downgraded the official seriousness of COVID-19 and removed it from a list of illnesses that require quarantine. It said authorities would stop tracking close contacts and designating areas as being at high or low risk of infection.&nbsp;

China successfully launches cargo spacecraft for its space station in orbit

The cargo craft is expected to conduct a fast-automated rendezvous and docking with the space station combination.

China successfully launched its cargo spacecraft Tianzhou-5 on Saturday to deliver supplies for its space station, the construction of which is expected to be completed this year.
The Long March-7 Y6 rocket, carrying Tianzhou-5 which blasted off this morning from the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site in the southern island province of Hainan has successfully entered its designated orbit, the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) said.
It declared the launch a complete success, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
The cargo craft is expected to conduct a fast-automated rendezvous and docking with the space station combination.
Earlier, on October 31, China launched the second lab called Mengtian module to be part of its Tiangong space station taking its construction into the final stage. According to an earlier announcement by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASTC) the low-orbit space station construction was expected to be completed this year.

Two batches comprising three astronauts were flown to the space station, the main module called Tianhe on a six months mission to complete the construction. While one set of astronauts returned, another set of three astronauts is currently based in Tianhe to complete its construction.
Once ready, China will be the only country to solely own a space station and will be a competitor to the NASA-led International Space Station (ISS) which is a collaborative project of several countries including Russia.
Observers say the CSS may become the sole space station to remain in orbit once the ISS retires in the coming years.
The significant feature of China's under-construction space station is its two robotic arms, especially the long one over which the US has previously expressed concern over its ability to grab objects including satellites from space.
With a larger door, Mengtian is capable of releasing miniaturised satellites into space. "Astronauts can install the small satellites on a payload transfer device, depressurise the airlock cabin, and then convey them out of the cabin," said Meng Yao, a designer of Mengtian.
"The robotic arm outside the space station will grab the satellites and then catapult them in specified directions," Meng was quoted as saying by Xinhua news agency.&nbsp;

Typhoon Hinnamnor: flights grounded in South Korea as 'strongest storm in decades' approaches 

The country will start to feel the full force of Hinnamnor, the strongest global storm this year, by early on Tuesday, AP reported.&nbsp;
&nbsp;

As South Korea braces for the worst storm in the decades, hundreds of flights were halted on Monday and more than 200 people evacuated after Typhoon Hinnamnor approached the southern region.&nbsp;
Heavy rains with winds of up to 290 kilometres per hour lashed the nation. The typhoon is expected to make a landfall near the mainland city of Busan.
The country will start to feel the full force of Hinnamnor, the strongest global storm this year, by early on Tuesday, AP reported.&nbsp;
Moreover, government officials have raised concern about potential huge damage from flooding, landslides and tidal waves triggered by the typhoon.&nbsp;
The typhoon is making a landfall just weeks after capital Seoul and nearby regions were pounded by heavy rainfall that unleashed flashfloods and killed at least 14 people.
Prime Minister Han Duk-soo has called for proactive efforts to evacuate residents in areas vulnerable to flooding.
In wake of the situation in South Korea, officials have asked all schools in Busan and nearby southern regions to remain closed or switch to online mode on Tuesday.&nbsp;

China Eastern flight MU5735 went into a near vertical nosedive less than an hour before it was meant to arrive at Guangzhou, with flight tracking showing the plane plummeting to the ground at an almost 90-degree angle.
The Wall Street Journal cited unnamed officials as saying that the flight information recorded in the black box suggested inputs were made to cockpit controls that put the plane in a fatal plunge.The Boeing 737-800 jet, data recorded by flight tracking service FlightRadar showed, dropped from 29,000 feet to the ground in less than two minutes.
A preliminary report by China’s aviation regulator released on April 20 found no problems with the aircraft or the cargo. The Chinese report did not establish a cause for the crash.
The WSJ cited its sources as saying that there is also a possibility that someone else on the plane could have broken into the cockpit and deliberately caused the crash.
