World Aquatics Championships: China claim trio of golds to continue diving dominance

China swept both diving finals to secure three gold medals at the World Aquatics Championships in Singapore on Sunday, continuing their long-held dominance of the sport. There were two golds in the mixed synchronised 10-metre platform and another in the men's 1m springboard event. Zhu Yongxin and Xie Peiling, diving together at a major international meet for the first time, topped the mixed event with 323.04 points, finishing just ahead of North Korea's Choe Wi-hyon and Jo Jin-mi, who scored 322.98. The Chinese pair were ranked last out of 12 competitors after the first of five dives, but held steady to climb the rankings and took the top spot following their fourth dive. Neutral athletes Aleksandr Bondar and Anna Konanykhina claimed bronze with 311.88. 'This wasn't an easy win; it was a tough battle, and in the end, we won by just a tiny margin,' Zhu said. 'Looking back, I felt a bit nervous about how close it was. But ultimately, I'm really glad we managed to secure the victory.'

Spouses, children of top talent unhappy with life in Hong Kong: university study

Most of the spouses and children of top talent, mainly from mainland China, are struggling to adapt to life in Hong Kong and are feeling unhappy, a university study has found, with researchers calling for better support services from schools and communities. Hang Seng University last week published a cross-subject study that began last December and involved 1,000 people who arrived as dependents of those admitted under the Quality Migrant Admission Scheme, with many coming from across the border. The scheme, which was introduced in 2006, allows successful applicants to relocate to Hong Kong without a prior employment offer. But the recent study found that the dependents of such candidates, in particular children , reported low satisfaction overall with their lives in Hong Kong. According to the research, nearly 70 per cent of spouses and 85 per cent of children reported feeling dissatisfaction, with 30 per cent of youngsters saying they were 'very dissatisfied'. The study also found that education and learning were the areas that dependents attached the most importance to, yet more than 70 per cent of them felt that studying in Hong Kong was not the right choice.
