What to know about a potential deal to keep TikTok running in US
Less than a month after extending a deadline to ban TikTok for the third time, President Donald Trump told reporters late Friday night that, 'We pretty much have a deal,' on TikTok — but he did not offer details. The details and timing of a potential deal are not clear. TikTok did not immediately respond to messages for comment on Monday. Emarketer analyst Jeremy Goldman said while TikTok is 'reportedly planning' a U.S. version of its app to comply with legal restrictions, the platform — if it launches without the original TikTok algorithm — 'risks losing the very personalization that drives user engagement.' In other words, TikTok just isn't TikTok without its algorithm. 'And getting millions to download a new app is no small feat, to say the least,' Goldman added. Here's what to know about where TikTok stands in the U.S. following Trump's comments. Extensions continue Though he has no clear legal basis to do so, Trump has continued to extend the deadline for TikTok to avoid a ban in the U.S. This gives his administration more time to broker a deal to bring the social media platform under American ownership. It is not clear how many times Trump can — or will — keep extending the ban as the government continues to try to negotiate a deal for TikTok, which is owned by China's ByteDance. While there is no clear legal basis for the extensions, so far there have been no legal challenges against the administration. Trump has amassed more than 15 million followers on TikTok since he joined last year, and he has credited the trendsetting platform with helping him gain traction among young voters. He said in January that he has a 'warm spot for TikTok.' TikTok stays for now For now, TikTok continues to function for its 170 million users in the U.S. Tech giants Apple, Google and Oracle were persuaded to continue to offer and support the app, on the promise that Trump's Justice Department would not use the law to seek potentially steep fines against them. Americans are even more closely divided on what to do about TikTok than they were two years ago. A recent Pew Research Center survey found that about one-third of Americans said they supported a TikTok ban, down from 50% in March 2023. Roughly one-third said they would oppose a ban, and a similar percentage said they weren't sure. Among those who said they supported banning the social media platform, about 8 in 10 cited concerns over users' data security being at risk as a major factor in their decision, according to the report. Trump said Friday that on Monday or Tuesday, the U.S. would take the proposal to Chinese leader Xi Jinping or one of his representatives. The president said he thinks they 'probably' need China to approve the deal but he wasn't sure they needed to. When asked whether he was confident China would approve the deal, Trump said, 'I'm not confident but I think so.' He said that for the U.S., 'we make a lot of money if the deal goes through.' Who wants to buy TikTok? Wednesdays Columnist Jen Zoratti looks at what's next in arts, life and pop culture. Although it's unclear if ByteDance plans to sell TikTok, several potential bidders have come forward in the past few months. Aides for Vice President JD Vance, who was tapped to oversee a potential deal, have reached out to some parties, such as the artificial intelligence startup Perplexity AI, to get additional details about their bids, according to a person familiar with the matter. In January, Perplexity AI presented ByteDance with a merger proposal that would combine Perplexity's business with TikTok's U.S. operation. Perplexity had no comment on Monday. Other potential bidders include a consortium organized by billionaire business executive Frank McCourt, which recently recruited Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian as a strategic adviser. Investors in the consortium say they've offered ByteDance $20 billion in cash for TikTok's U.S. platform. And if successful, they plan to redesign the popular app with blockchain technology they say will provide users with more control over their online data. Among the possible investors are the software company Oracle and the investment firm Blackstone. Neither company immediately responded to messages seeking comment on Monday.

Hainan emerges as China's premier international medical tourism destination
HAIKOU, July 5 (Xinhua) -- Nestled in the coastal town of Boao in south China's Hainan Province, the Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone is rapidly becoming a leading hub for health and innovation in China, drawing increasing attention from around the world. Hailed as China's sole "medical special zone," the pilot zone is home to over 30 top-tier domestic and international medical institutions. Thanks to special policy support, the medical zone has introduced 485 advanced medicines and medical devices approved overseas but not yet available in the domestic market, benefiting over 130,000 patients. Plagued by growing lumps on his chest and back that interfered with his work, Canadian figure skating coach Mark Batka chose to undergo surgery during a four-day wellness trip to the pilot zone. "In Canada, it is more expensive, and also it takes time to book it. And I was here, so I thought I would give it a try and I was very happy and I think it went very well," he said. Mark is just one of many international visitors who have benefited from the medical zone's services, which go beyond world-class treatments to offer a holistic experience, ranging from premium health check-ups and a fusion of traditional Chinese and Western therapies to cultural activities like incense appreciation, tea ceremonies and calligraphy. The Boao Yiling Life Care Center, a premier integrated medical service provider within the medical zone, offers a wide range of services like health management, disease prevention, specialized treatments, rehabilitation, and mental wellness. Janet Wong, who is part of the Canadian wellness tour group with Mark, said she was astounded by the high-end health check-up she received at the life care center. "We were so amazed right from the start when we arrived," she said, adding that the treatments were excellent and the medical check-up was incredibly thorough. "In some ways, it does feel like a vacation," said Stephanie Wing See Yau, another member of the Canadian group, praising the center as a truly top-notch facility. "It's very impressive how they put all these treatments in one place," she said, noting that it's refreshing to see a focus on overall wellness, not just physical, but mental as well. She described the medical tour as a great experience and said she would definitely recommend it to her friends. As part of its push to become the "capital of medical tourism," the pilot zone has launched 25 specialized routes tailored to diverse needs, from traditional Chinese medicine and chronic disease management to luxury diagnostics and cosmetic rehabilitation, gaining growing popularity worldwide. It has also become a key platform supporting Hainan's efforts to build an international hub for tourism and consumption. In 2024, the pilot zone attracted over 410,000 medical visitors, up 36.76 percent year on year. So far this year, the medical zone has already welcomed 188,300 medical tourists from countries including Canada, Spain, Russia, Uzbekistan and Cuba. Kareldus Agas, director of International Tourism Promotion, Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy of Indonesia, was deeply impressed by the comprehensive services in Lecheng after experiencing health projects featuring traditional Chinese cultural activities like calligraphy and Chinese cupping. He said Lecheng offered not only cutting-edge medical services but also a seamless blend of relaxation, wellness and spiritual healing, creating a truly remarkable experience. Even without the need for medical treatment, he expressed a strong desire to return, simply to enjoy the unique sense of relaxation it provides. The medical zone has established partnerships with over 180 pharmaceutical and medical device companies from 20 countries, ensuring access to advanced international medical services for both domestic and international visitors, said He Ying, an official with the medical tourism department of the Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone Administration. He added that the zone will continue to strengthen its service platforms and international reception capabilities, with the goal of becoming a world-class medical tourism destination. As part of its broader economic strategy, China is building Hainan into a Free Trade Port and aims to transform the province into a globally influential tourism and consumption destination by 2035.
