Tao Tsuchiya, Ambassador for TOKYO LIGHT 2026

Official Ambassador

The Committee is pleased to announce the appointment of actress Tao Tsuchiya as the official ambassador for TOKYO LIGHTS 2026. Widely supported across generations and known for continually taking on new creative challenges, Ms. Tsuchiya will help promote the event and will also appear at the Grand Finale on Sunday, May 31, 2026.

Tao Tsuchiya Comments: “My first encounter with TOKYO LIGHTS was in 2022. I was deeply moved by the experience, which felt as though I had traveled into another world, and since then my family and I have visited every year. It is a great honor to now take on the role of ambassador. Projection mapping and light art connect people and connect generations and perhaps may even connect us to the universe. I believe they hold limitless possibilities. I hope to share this experience with many people at the venue.”

Born in Tokyo on February 3, 1995, Tao Tsuchiya made her film debut in Tokyo Sonata (2008) and rose to national prominence after being cast as the heroine of NHK’s morning drama series Mare (2015). Since then, she has built a wide-ranging career across film, television, stage, and animation, with more than 37 starring works as of 2026. 

Five Themes of VISIBLE TOKYO

Under the concept of VISIBLE TOKYO, TOKYO LIGHTS 2026 presents five themes through which visitors can experience the city in light: Visible CITY, Visible NATURE, Visible HEART, Visible CONNECTION, and Visible IMAGINATION. Through these themes, the event seeks to visualize the many elements that shape Tokyo—its urban landscape, nature, emotions, human connections, and creativity—through the shared language of light.

Visible CITY expresses Tokyo itself through light, including the flow of the city, traffic, signs of human presence, and data.
Visible NATURE presents installations that evoke the breath of nature and the subtle movements of life.
Visible HEART features artworks that project emotions, memories, and lingering traces of feeling as light. 
Visible CONNECTION explores interfaces of light linking the city and nature, and people and the city. 
Visible IMAGINATION offers participatory and immersive expressions designed to stimulate creativity and inspiration.

Light Art Park

For a limited period, Light Art Park will transform Shinjuku Chuo Park into an immersive environment of light art. Under the artistic direction of Kenji Kohashi, who has led numerous international events and large-scale festivals including Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, artists from Japan and overseas will depict the “invisible Tokyo” through light.

Light Art Park is organized around four themes—Visible CITY, Visible NATURE, Visible HEART, and Visible CONNECTION. Throughout the venue, visitors will encounter works that give physical form to these themes, allowing them to experience the world of VISIBLE TOKYO as they walk through the park.

Human connection expands outward as ripples of light

This participatory installation by Beamhacker, known for interactive works combining light and mirrors, invites visitors to join hands with the human-shaped silhouettes arranged around the piece. As they do so, ripples of light spread outward in a chain reaction, and the installation becomes increasingly dynamic through communication and cooperation among participants.

Liquid Universe: Sōbō Chūfu — An Unclassifiable Entomologia of the Luminous Swarm / Visible CONNECTION / Chobo-no-Mori / Yoichi Ochiai / Japan

A new installation by Yoichi Ochiai, where the lights of nature and the city intersect.

Created for TOKYO LIGHTS 2026 by Yoichi Ochiai, this new installation brings together different forms of light found in nature and in the city—such as fireflies, bioluminescent organisms, and LEDs—within a four-meter pillar of light. Amid imagery continuously generated by computational nature, the work invites visitors to reconsider the boundary between the natural and the artificial.

Visible TOWER / Visible CITY / Fun More Time Hiroba / V_T / Japan

This tower-shaped installation visualizes the memories and everyday activities of people passing through the city as “memories of light.” During the day, it reflects the surrounding urban landscape and its visitors like a mirror; at night, AI-generated collages of the city’s memories appear on an LED display. Visitors may also walk through the sculpture itself and experience these “memories of light” at close range.  V_T:YAMACHANG / Kenji Kohashi / Naoya Murayama

INTER-WORLD/Co-cooner: Apparent motion of celestial bodies 
/ Visible NATURE / Hana-no-Mori / Akihito Okunaka / Japan

A legacy work from Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai that evokes the cycles of nature

This experiential work was exhibited as an official program of Study: Osaka Kansai International Art Festival 2025 at Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai. Through a soft sculptural form that amplifies natural phenomena created by the interaction of air, water, and sunlight, the work encourages visitors to reflect on how human beings are connected to the world. Visitors are invited to step inside and experience being enveloped by pods of changing light.

Additional Works and Open Call Program

In addition to the featured works above, Light Art Park will include a range of other installations, including Seeds of Light— Egg of Hope, first exhibited at Burning Man in the Nevada desert in the United States; Photosynthesis, in which FLIGHTGRAF, a headliner at one of Europe’s leading light festivals, depicts the breathing cycle of plants; and TOKYO Hyakka Ryōran, which likens Tokyo’s individuality to a giant blooming flower. Throughout the venue, visitors will encounter light-based expressions that resonate with both the city and nature.

As opportunities to present light art in public spaces in Japan remain limited, the event has also held an open call and will exhibit works by emerging artists and students selected through the screening process. Through these efforts, TOKYO LIGHTS 2026 aims to help foster a new generation of artists and creators working in light-based expression.

1minute Projection Mapping Competition

The 1minute Projection Mapping Competition is one of the world’s most established and prestigious international projection mapping competitions, originating in Japan since 2012.

In late April, EVM-based privacy infrastructure network Anubis Chain officially launched its global community co-creation initiative titled “Superman for All.” The program opens 600 ecosystem co-builder positions worldwide and introduces a tiered growth pathway alongside a closed-loop incentive mechanism.

As the Web3 privacy sector accelerates toward programmable compliance, the “Superman for All” initiative is expected to provide Anubis Chain with scalable growth momentum and sustainable competitive advantages.

Community-Driven Growth: The Key to Long-Term Public Chain Vitality

As competition across the Web3 industry continues to intensify, the long-term competitiveness of public blockchains is increasingly defined by factors such as developer activity, real user scale, liquidity depth, execution capability across market cycles, and overall ecosystem resilience.

Industry analysis indicates that developer activity and community engagement rates have gradually replaced simple follower counts as the core indicators for evaluating the long-term vitality of blockchain ecosystems.

It is widely acknowledged within the industry that while short-term financial incentives may attract users, they rarely guarantee long-term retention. Sustainable retention ultimately depends on the long-term opportunities created within the ecosystem, as well as users’ sense of cultural identity, community belonging, and participation in a shared mission.

This represents one of the most overlooked aspects of community-driven growth for public blockchains: users are often motivated not merely by financial rewards, but by alignment with the ecosystem’s vision, a sense of belonging within the community, and the fulfillment of contributing to a meaningful collective endeavor.

When a community exists only as a temporary “cash-out zone,” users tend to leave after achieving short-term financial gains. In contrast, blockchain ecosystems that achieve sustainable long-term growth are those that establish emotional and cultural connections extending beyond financial incentives. This is the true essence of community-driven growth.

The “Superman for All” Initiative Empowers Ordinary Users as Ecosystem Growth Drivers

As a major strategic initiative within the Anubis Chain ecosystem, the “Superman for All” program breaks away from traditional community operation models by positioning ordinary users as the core driving force behind ecosystem expansion.

The initiative’s definition of “superman” does not refer to individuals with extraordinary powers, but rather to people who are willing to step forward, take responsibility, and drive change.

To support this vision, the initiative introduces a carefully designed three-tier growth framework consisting of:

  • Brand Promotion Officers
  • Community Co-Creation Officers
  • Ecosystem Alliance Officers

Together, these roles form a structured ecosystem contribution system with clear progression pathways and expanding responsibilities.

Brand Promotion Officers focus on ecosystem outreach and awareness building, helping privacy-focused public blockchains break beyond niche audiences.

Community Co-Creation Officers focus on community governance and regional expansion, strengthening community cohesion and engagement.

Ecosystem Alliance Officers focus on strategic resource integration and participation in ecosystem decision-making, helping Anubis Chain connect with high-quality global resources.

By combining the three-tier growth structure with a closed-loop incentive mechanism, Anubis Chain aims to support participants as they evolve from ecosystem advocates into co-builders and ultimately ecosystem drivers.

The initiative is designed to cultivate a strong sense of belonging and cohesion while establishing a self-growing, self-organizing distributed growth network capable of supporting large-scale ecosystem expansion over the long term.

Today, competition among public blockchains has fundamentally shifted toward user acquisition capability. As technological gaps continue to narrow, the platforms capable of reaching larger numbers of ordinary users with lower barriers to entry will ultimately build irreplaceable competitive moats in ecosystem prosperity.

The 600 co-builder positions opened through the “Superman for All” initiative are expected to serve as the core “sparks” for Anubis Chain’s ecosystem expansion, continuously igniting enthusiasm for global ecosystem co-creation.

For this privacy infrastructure project that is actively building a dual barrier of “traffic scale and technological depth,” this ecosystem-focused strategy is only just beginning.

Applications are now officially open. Interested participants can apply through the official Anubis website or community channels.

In Web3, transparency has always been a defining feature. Every transaction is recorded on-chain, visible to anyone, and verifiable in real time. While this openness underpins trustless systems, it also creates an overlooked trade-off: the loss of financial privacy.

Today, as more users actively engage with DeFi and on-chain applications, this trade-off is becoming harder to ignore.

When transparency becomes overexposure

From token swaps to simple transfers, nearly every on-chain action leaves a public footprint. Wallet balances, transaction histories, and behavioral patterns can all be tracked—often without users fully realizing it.

For many, this level of transparency was once seen as a necessary compromise. But as the ecosystem matures, expectations are changing. Users are beginning to ask a different question:

Should participating in Web3 mean giving up control over your financial data?

Privacy: the missing layer of Web3

While infrastructure around scalability and interoperability has rapidly evolved, privacy remains one of the least addressed aspects of the user experience.

Historically, privacy tools have been complex, fragmented, or limited to niche use cases. As a result, everyday users—those simply swapping tokens or sending assets—have had little access to practical privacy solutions.

This is where a shift is beginning to take place.

Bringing privacy into everyday transactions

Coin98, a multichain wallet known for simplifying cross-chain interactions, is introducing Private Mode—a feature designed to bring privacy directly into two of the most common on-chain actions: swapping and sending.

Rather than treating privacy as an advanced feature, Private Mode integrates it seamlessly into the existing wallet experience.

With just a simple toggle, users can activate:

  • Private Swap: Helping reduce the visibility of transaction patterns. This also helps mitigate the risks of predatory bots and front-running by reducing the visibility of trading intent.

Private Send: Making transfers untraceable, ensuring your financial footprint remains your own.

Learn more about the product.

Designed for real-world usage, not just experts

One of the biggest barriers to privacy in Web3 has been usability. Many solutions require technical knowledge or involve multiple steps that deter mainstream adoption.

Coin98 takes a different approach: making privacy intuitive.

There is no need for additional tools, complex setups, or deep technical understanding. Users interact with the same familiar interface—only now with the option to choose when and how their activity is exposed.

As a result, privacy becomes part of the default user experience, rather than an afterthought.

A step toward user-controlled Web3

The introduction of Private Mode reflects a broader shift in how Web3 products are evolving—from purely transparent systems to more user-controlled environments.

Transparency remains essential for security and verification. But without privacy, users are left with limited autonomy over their own data.

By embedding privacy into everyday actions, Coin98 is helping to redefine this balance.

“Web3 has always been built on transparency, but users shouldn’t have to sacrifice privacy to participate. With Private Mode, we’re making privacy a seamless part of everyday on-chain transactions.”

As the conversation around privacy continues to grow, solutions that integrate seamlessly into existing user behaviors will likely play a key role in shaping the next phase of Web3 adoption.

Looking ahead

Privacy is no longer a niche concern—it is becoming a fundamental expectation.

And as more users enter the space, the demand for simple, accessible, and effective privacy tools will only increase.

With Private Mode, Coin98 positions itself at the forefront of this shift—bringing privacy not just to advanced users, but to everyday transactions across chains.


Explore Private Mode on Coin98 and take control of your on-chain privacy.

Tapes To Digital, a UK-based tape conversion service, provides digital transfer for VHS, VHS-C, Betamax, Video8, Hi8, Digital8, MiniDV, audio cassette and other legacy media formats. The company has completed conversions for more than 100,000 customers across the UK and Australia, with drop-off locations across Greater London, the South East, East of England, West Yorkshire and the West Midlands.

United Kingdom, 13th May 2026 – Tapes To Digital, a UK-based tape conversion service, offers digital transfer services for a wide range of legacy tape formats across the country. The company provides conversion for VHS, VHS-C, Betamax, Video8, Hi8, Digital8, MiniDV, MicroMV, U-Matic, Betacam and audio cassette tapes, alongside other media formats including vinyl records, reel-to-reel tapes, MiniDisc and DAT.

Magnetic tape, which has been a common format for home recordings since the 1970s, has a typical recommended storage lifespan of 20 to 30 years according to archival guidelines. Many tapes recorded during the 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s now fall within or beyond this period. Tapes To Digital provides households and organisations with a route to transfer the contents of older media into modern digital formats.

Playback equipment for older tape formats has also become harder to source in recent years. Production of new VHS recorders ended in 2016, and machines for formats such as Betamax, Video8 and MiniDV are increasingly available only through specialist suppliers.

“We work with customers across the UK who want to access old family videos, audio recordings and archive footage on modern devices,” said a spokesperson for Tapes To Digital. “Digital conversion provides a way to view, share and store content from formats that would otherwise require equipment that is no longer widely available.”

Tapes To Digital has completed conversions for more than 100,000 customers across the UK and Australia, processing over 10 million items of media to date. Customers receive their original tapes back alongside digital copies supplied on USB, DVD or via cloud storage. The company also provides repair services for tapes affected by mould, broken casings or sticky-shed syndrome prior to conversion.

All work is carried out in-house in the UK, with no tapes sent overseas. Drop-off locations are available across Greater London, the South East, East of England, West Yorkshire and the West Midlands. The company offers VHS to digital conversion and other tape transfer services with pricing from £15 per tape, with reduced rates available for larger volumes.

In addition to tape conversion, Tapes To Digital offers photo scanning, slide and negative digitisation, video editing, montage production, and floppy disk and Zip disk data recovery.

According to company data, more than 70 percent of annual revenue is generated from repeat customers. Women hold 80 percent of leadership positions, and members of the leadership team report tenures ranging from 8 to 25 years with the company.

Company Background

Founder and CEO Guy Dawson established Payless Promotions 25 years ago to serve organisations managing uniforms and merchandise across multiple sites. The company identified a market need among clients running multi-site uniform and merchandise programs, particularly the administration involved in approval workflows, order reconciliation, and consistency across locations.

“Our clients needed systems to reduce administration time and improve consistency across locations,” said Dawson. “That is what we set out to build over the past 25 years.”

The company invested in custom-built technology rather than off-the-shelf software, developing e-client portals, approval workflows, automated reporting tools, and API integrations for client use. According to company reports, clients using these systems have reduced internal uniform and merchandise administration time by up to 70 percent.

Client Sectors

Payless Promotions reports a client base that includes government departments, healthcare networks, ASX-listed enterprises, Aboriginal community organisations, education providers, and childcare operators. The company states that the majority of its revenue is generated from clients with multi-site procurement requirements where consistency and reporting are operational priorities.

Team and Leadership Tenure

The Payless Promotions leadership team consists of staff who have been with the company for periods ranging from 8 to 25 years. Women hold 80 percent of leadership positions across the business. The company reports that long staff tenure has supported continuity in client account management, with clients working with the same account contacts over multiple years.

Operations and Supply Chain

Payless Promotions operates direct supplier partnerships across Australia and China. The company maintains market-rate tracking processes to monitor pricing across its product catalogue and reports that this supply chain structure supports its lead time and pricing positions.

The product range includes promotional merchandise, custom workwear, hi-vis safety clothing, corporate and sports uniforms, school and healthcare uniforms, Year 12 jerseys, corporate gifts, and an eco-friendly and sustainable merchandise range. The full catalogue is available at paylesspromotions.com.au.

Compliance

The company maintains a Modern Slavery Policy and conducts supplier assessments that meet enterprise compliance requirements. It also provides carbon reporting for clients with net-zero reporting requirements.

Outlook

“We continue to invest in digital reach, platform development, and product range as we enter the next phase of operation,” said Dawson.

Dawson confirmed that he remains directly contactable by clients, with his direct number available on request.

Bry-Air MiniPAC stainless models MP-100, MP-350, MP-600, and MP-1200 are now available to order on a 5-week lead time for facilities operating under FDA 21 CFR Part 117, USP <800>, and ISO 14644.

United States, 13th May 2026US Cleaning Tools today expanded its stock of Bry-Air’s stainless steel MiniPAC desiccant dehumidifiers. The move follows growing orders from FDA-regulated food plants, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and ISO-classified cleanrooms.

The stainless MiniPAC range covers four capacities: MP-100, MP-350, MP-600, and MP-1200. Each unit uses Bry-Air’s silica-gel rotor to pull air down below 1% relative humidity. Refrigerant dehumidifiers cannot get there. The 304-grade stainless construction is built for daily wash-down and clean-in-place cycles, which is what FDA 21 CFR Part 117 and USP <800> environments actually require.

“Food and pharma operators keep hitting the same wall with refrigerant dehumidifiers. They bottom out around 35% RH,”

said Krenar Jaha, founder of US Cleaning Tools. 

“Below that, in a stainless wash-down environment, you have to go desiccant. Bry-Air built this line for exactly that situation, and we’ve seen orders climb noticeably since FDA enforcement tightened in 2024.”

Humidity control is one of the most common cGMP audit findings in pharmaceutical manufacturing, according to compliance reviews published by FDA inspectors. Excess moisture degrades active pharmaceutical ingredients, encourages microbial growth in spray-drying operations, and changes tablet hardness mid-batch. A single rejected batch can cost a manufacturer over $100,000.

Capacities run from 100 CFM up to 1,200 CFM. The smaller units fit dispensary cleanrooms and confectionery dry-rooms; the larger ones handle pharmaceutical lyophilization suites and lithium-ion battery dry rooms. Every unit ships with integrated PLC controls and an option for digital data logging where FDA audit trails are required. Stainless MiniPAC orders carry a 5-week build lead time; standard galvanized models ship within a week.

US Cleaning Tools is an authorized Bry-Air dealer. The team handles sizing, install guidance, and post-sale service across Bry-Air’s full industrial dehumidifier range.

About US Cleaning Tools

US Cleaning Tools (uscleaningtools.com) is a US commercial supplier of cleaning, restoration, and environmental control equipment based in Issaquah, Washington. The company stocks more than 700 products across 30 brands, including Bry-Air, Therma-Kleen, Tornado, and Nacecare. Customers include food and pharmaceutical manufacturers, restoration contractors, hospitality groups, and healthcare facilities. Standard catalog items ship within a week; engineered industrial systems carry standard manufacturer lead times.

About Bry-Air

Bry-Air is a global manufacturer of industrial desiccant dehumidification systems, headquartered in India with US distribution. Bry-Air units are used in pharmaceutical, food, lithium battery, defense, and chemical processing facilities worldwide.

New feature spotlights a memorable Vancouver dinner built around incredible views, beautiful sablefish, and a lemon pie worth ending with

Canada, 13th May 2026 — Robert Lawrence Vancouver has released a new restaurant review focused on Seasons in the Park Vancouver, highlighting a dinner experience that combined one of the city’s most scenic dining settings with a meal that fully lived up to the atmosphere.

The new feature centers on what made the evening feel complete: the setting, the food, and the way the entire night came together naturally from the first course through dessert. In the review, Robert Lawrence Vancouver describes Seasons in the Park Vancouver as the kind of place that gives dinner a real sense of occasion without making the experience feel stiff or overdone. Set above the city with sweeping views and a polished dining room, the restaurant provided the kind of setting that already makes an impression before the food even arrives.

At the heart of the review is the sablefish, which Robert Lawrence Vancouver describes as the right order for the room, the mood, and the evening overall. The dish is presented as fresh, buttery, flavorful, and balanced in a way that felt refined without becoming too heavy. Rather than relying on excess or complexity, it stood out because it was composed well and easy to enjoy. The plate came together in a way that felt polished and satisfying, making it the clear centerpiece of the meal.

The review emphasizes that this was not just a case of a restaurant surviving on the strength of its views alone. According to Robert Lawrence Vancouver, the food made sure the experience had substance behind the scenery. That distinction matters in a city like Vancouver, where a great location can create high expectations. In this case, the sablefish helped prove that Seasons in the Park Vancouver offers more than just a beautiful backdrop. The meal itself gave the evening real weight.

Dessert also played an important role in how the night came together. Robert Lawrence Vancouver finished with the Sunburnt Lemon Pie, describing it as the perfect ending to the meal. Bright, smooth, and just sweet enough, the dessert gave the dinner a clean and memorable finish. Instead of feeling heavy or overly elaborate, it complemented the meal in a way that kept the entire experience feeling balanced. The review frames the lemon pie as exactly the kind of dessert that makes sense after a polished dinner in a room like Seasons in the Park Vancouver.

That sense of rhythm is one of the strongest themes in the new feature. The review is not simply about one good plate or one striking view. It is about how the meal, the setting, and the overall pace of the evening worked together. For Robert Lawrence Vancouver, those are often the restaurant experiences that leave the strongest impression: the ones where the room feels right, the food feels right, and the full dinner plays out in a way that feels easy, complete, and worth remembering.

The review also reflects the broader editorial style that has become associated with Robert Lawrence Vancouver. Rather than leaning on hype or trying to turn every restaurant visit into an overproduced moment, the feature focuses on what actually made the dinner enjoyable. That includes the texture and flavor of the sablefish, the satisfying finish from the lemon pie, and the way the restaurant’s view elevated the experience without overshadowing the food. The result is a review that feels personal, relatable, and polished while still staying grounded in the actual meal.

Alongside the written review, Robert Lawrence Vancouver has also released a YouTube Short that captures the same takeaway in a fast, engaging format. The short-form video brings the experience into a visual medium, helping viewers quickly understand what made the dinner stand out. Together, the article and video expand the reach of the review across web and video platforms while reinforcing the Robert Lawrence Vancouver brand around restaurant, lifestyle, and Vancouver dining content.

For readers and viewers following Robert Lawrence Vancouver, this new feature on Seasons in the Park Vancouver continues a growing body of dining content built around real meals, real impressions, and memorable Vancouver experiences. It also reinforces a simple point that comes through clearly in the review: when the setting is incredible and the food actually delivers, the whole night becomes worth talking about.

What happens when a woman dies outraged at her husband? Death by Roses explores that question in a tenderly humorous dramedy that will be showcased by Explora Books at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair, held June 17–21 at the China National Convention Center (CNCC).

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 13th May 2026 – Mae Rose McElroy is a bitter woman, married to Art for 30 years. Through a spectacular series of events involving a dozen yellow roses, she ends up in the afterlife long before she’s ready. Outraged to be dead, she stomps into higher realms, ready to argue with God for her life back. However, she must first undergo a “Reflection” on her recent past, during which she is stunned to learn that a wonderful life and marriage were always within her reach.

With this new insight, Mae Rose is determined to find a way back. She violates the divine “No Meddling” rule with such panache that she is indeed returned to Earth—but with a catch. Her spirit takes up residence in the dying body of “Scary Mary” Broadmoor, a famous horror movie producer who is perfectly fine with dying, provided she is finally granted an Oscar for her terrifying cinematic legacy.

With two opinionated, controlling women sharing one body, the situation begs the question: Is this hell, or a second chance? As buried family secrets come to light on a global stage, everyone involved discovers the amazing power of truth, forgiveness, and the beauty of starting over. “A love story for the ages.” — Foreword Magazine

Death by Roses showcases Probst’s gift for blending the comic with the profound, drawing on a rich literary tradition of afterlife narratives—from Dante to Our Town—while firmly planting itself in a voice that is entirely her own.

Attendees of the Beijing International Book Fair are invited to discover Death by Roses at the Explora Books exhibit (Booth 5A.B14). The novel is also available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major retailers.

The President of Kazakhstan, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, has signed a decree on May 12 aimed at integrating artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into Kazakhstan’s secondary education system, as part of broader efforts to modernize education and strengthen the country’s human capital amid the rapid global development of AI.

Under the decree, the government is expected to approve by July 1, a comprehensive action plan for 2026-2029 focused on the large-scale introduction of AI into schools. The plan will include mechanisms for personalized learning, the development of digital infrastructure, teacher training, and the protection of students’ personal data, Akorda reported.

The document also provides for the use of recommendations by AI expert Kai-Fu Lee in practical implementation. By June 1, the government is to submit proposals for a pilot project in secondary education, with the initiative later expected to be scaled nationwide. The reforms are intended in part to reduce disparities in education quality between urban and rural schools.

As part of the pilot phase, schools are to receive the necessary technical equipment, including stable high-speed internet access, by Aug. 1.

The decree stipulates that national standards governing the use of AI in secondary education will be adopted by Sept. 1. By the same date, authorities are also expected to approve a continuous professional development plan for educators to ensure AI technologies serve as a supplementary teaching tool without replacing teachers’ professional roles.
