A Chinese Douyin blogger known as “旅拍人像邱SIR” (Travel Portrait Photographer Qiu SIR), who was traveling in Nepal when a landslide struck the Gyirong border crossing, is feared to have been caught in the disaster. His account has not been updated since he posted his last video on August 25. Large numbers of users concerned for his safety flooded the video’s comment section with possible clues and messages hoping for his safe return, but the comments were quickly wiped.

After one of his friends posted a video seeking information about his whereabouts, its comment section was also cleared, while some related videos were deleted altogether. According to his friends, at around 10:00 a.m. on August 26, Qiu separated from his travel companions and drove alone toward China from a location less than two kilometers from the Gyirong border crossing. The landslide struck approximately 40 minutes later. Based on this timeline, it is believed that he may have been waiting to clear customs on the Nepalese side of the crossing when the disaster occurred.

In addition, all 11 members of a project management team called “Tibet Tianlu” went missing following the landslide. Their whereabouts remain unknown.

“CCP ‘Stability Maintenance’ Goes Abroad: Chinese Workers in Kyrgyzstan Confined During Xi Jinping’s Visit (2026.08.30–31)”

From August 30 to 31, multiple Chinese-funded construction sites in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, suspended work due to Xi Jinping’s visit to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit. Video footage from the scene shows caution tape blocking the entrance to a construction site operated by China Hengyu Construction in Bishkek. According to workers, they will not be allowed to leave the site until the summit concludes on September 2. Other online sources said that at some construction sites, workers have been prohibited from going out even where work has not been forcibly suspended.

“Xi’an Residents’ Boycott of SEG Continues for Two Months, Foot Traffic Drops 70% (2026.08.08–31)”

As of August 31, the “Boycott SEG” campaign launched by residents of Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, has continued for a full two months. In an effort to win back customers, SEG has reportedly invested hundreds of millions of yuan and repeatedly rolled out large-scale promotions and discounts, yet foot traffic at the shopping mall remains sharply down. According to multiple local residents, current foot traffic at SEG has fallen by at least 70% compared with peak levels. Even on weekends and public holidays, the once-packed mall is now noticeably less crowded. The prolonged decline in customer traffic is also putting enormous pressure on businesses inside the mall. Some merchants say their sales have dropped sharply and that they are “struggling to hold on.” Two months on, the “Boycott SEG” campaign has not quickly faded away like many similar protests. Instead, it has persisted to this day, making it a rare example in China in recent years of a sustained collective consumer boycott.
