Hanoi, September 9

Southeast Asia’s top diplomats held their annual talks through videoconferencing on Wednesday to discuss the immense crisis wrought by Covid and rising tensions in the South China Sea amid the escalating rivalry between Washington and Beijing.

When the territorial conflicts were discussed, “concerns were expressed on the land reclamations, activities and serious incidents in the area,” the ministers said in a draft communique. — AP

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
