Welcome to another episode of the GT Podcast with Mulan - a one-stop shop for the Global Times' take on top China and global news.

In today's podcast:

China has called for immediate cease-fire in the Gaza Strip at a series of diplomatic activities, including the arrival of an Arab-Islamic delegation to Beijing.

Although China's economy faces downward pressure, a growing number of renowned Chinese economists and international organizations are upbeat on growth momentum in 2024.

China and the US are facing bilateral tensions, but friendship and cooperation in various areas have continued, as shown in a recent trip by US mayors to China.

Being an ally of the US has not been advantageous to the Philippines, either economically or militarily, according to a former Philippine presidential spokesperson.

The oratorio Émigré - a cowork by the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra and the New York Philharmonic - in Shanghai offers warmth and light.
