As the key venture under the Sino-Singapore (Chongqing) Strategic Connectivity Demonstration Project, the third government-to-government (G-to-G) cooperation project between China and Singapore, the International Land-Sea Trade Corridor (ILSTC, previously known as the Southern Transport Corridor), has raised high expectations since it was officially launched in September 2017.1 The corridor seeks to reduce transaction costs for businesses by providing them with connectivity options, including highway, river, railway, and air links, to promote cooperation in the priority sectors of financial services, aviation, logistics and transport, and ICT. The ILSTC has made some progress over the last two years, with the two countries expanding the breadth and depth of their cooperation, including connecting more transportation lines and increasing the scale of freight transport. Official statistics show that as of 30 June 2020, the ILSTC has been extended to 234 ports in 92 countries and regions around the world, including Singapore.2 With a steady increase in the participation, the construction of the ILSTC appears to have gotten off to a good start, although there remain a number of key challenges.

PurposeThis paper explores the relationship between digitalization and green supply chain (GSC) activities in the manufacturing industry, using Huawei as a case study.Design/methodology/approachA qualitative case study approach was employed, involving in-depth interviews, document analysis and direct observations. Data were analyzed using thematic coding aligned with the resource-based view (RBV) framework.FindingsThe study identifies three key digitalization capabilities – governance, value creation and connection – that enable sustainable practices through mechanisms such as perceptive, decision-making, and responsive processes. These capabilities facilitate GSC activities by enhancing operational efficiency, resource optimization and stakeholder collaboration.Originality/valueThis research contributes to the understanding of how digitalization enables sustainable practices in manufacturing. It offers a conceptual framework and empirical evidence that bridge theory and practice, with implications for organizations, policymakers and society.

The rumors that Lenin was a "German spy" first appeared in Petrograd after the February revolution in Russia. During the Soviet period, the "Sisson documents" (papers) were fabricated in the United States and other Western countries, and other evidence was sought that Lenin was allegedly an "agent" of the German government. However, all the evidence presented were convincingly refuted. V. I. Lenin's "German spy" case was discussed again during the collapse of the Soviet Union and in post-Soviet Russia. In some Russian media, political and academic circles, this "case" was reproduced in various forms, but new materials and new evidences were not found.
