Swieqi United Beat Birkirkara For First Triumph

Dec 9 2024

Last Sunday, Swieqi United beat Birkirkara, securing their maiden Super Cup victory.

This marks Swieqi’s second major honour after previously winning their 2023 domestic cup.

From the onset of the game, Birkirkara attempted to exploit spaces in the defensive setup of Swieqi, however the Owls took the lead from the opening stages of the match by turning their counter-attacking strategy to account.

Despite Birkirkara’s Charlene Zammit being named Assikura Women’s Super Cup Best Player, Zammit will have to skip next Friday’s crucial league game against Hibernians after being suspended for dangerous play during last Sunday’s match.

China Planning To Have 100,000 Flying Cars In Just 6 Years

Dec 9 2024

China is working on revolutionising the country’s urban transportation throughout the next 6 years with 100,000 electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicles (eVTOLs), in other words – flying cars!

The cities’ groundwork for this airborne transformation is currently in the works and the Chinese Low Altitude Economic Alliance stated that the majority of ground facilities, as well as air traffic networks, will be finalised in the next 2 to 3 years. This will allow the production and commercialisation of such vehicles in mass by as early as 2026.

The use of eVTOLs is already transforming areas such as environmental monitoring and grid inspections and widespread use for urban transportation, tourism, emergency rescue operations, logistics and agriculture is set to be revolutionising.

At present, these futuristic cars come at the price of £1 million, however by 2030 they’re expected to become more accessible in the luxury market
costing anywhere from £200,000 and £300,000. China’s economy is heading towards a “golden decade” as this sector is expected to grow to a staggering £326 billion by 2030.

Authorities and eVTOLs manufacturers are working on regulations to ensure safe operations and artificial intelligence and technology will be crucial for this. Experts explained that although this technology is there, companies and authorities are still working on integrating such vehicles into our air space.
