Guiyu

From the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin 貴嶼 /贵屿 (Guìyǔ).

In Guiyu Township, Chaoyang County, Guangdong, the average yield for potato is 9.75 t/ha and for winter sweetpotato yield is about 17.25 t/ha.

1996, Charles S. Gitomer, Potato and Sweetpotato in China: Systems, Constraints, and Potential, Lima, Peru: International Potato Center, →ISBN, →OCLC, page 56:

Following up news articles and e-mails from mainland China, BAN was directed to an e-waste processing area known as Guiyu on the Longdong River near the city of Shantou in the northeast [of] Guangdong Province, four hours by car from Hong Kong. In the course of three intensive days in and around Guiyu's four villages, the small investigative team witnessed firsthand what passes for recycling of e-waste in Asia.

2002, Jim Puckett, 5:35 from the start, in Exporting Harm: The High-Tech Trashing of Asia, spoken by Mary Ryan, Basel Action Network, →OCLC:

On a recent morning in Guiyu, in Guangdong province, hundreds of men squatted in concrete-block sheds, sifting through computers and printers and breaking them into scrap with their bare hands.

2003 February 24, Peter S. Goodman, “China Serves As Dump Site For Computers”, in The Washington Post, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2023-10-01:

The residents of Guiyu, including children, make their living sorting, dismantling and burning computer parts or bathing them in nitric and hydrochloric acids to recover precious metals.

2008 January 12, Jon Mooallem, “The risk-filled afterlife”, in The New York Times, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2023-03-14, International Business:

On seemingly every street, laborers sit on the pavement outside workshops ripping out the guts of household appliances with hammers and drills. The roads in Guiyu are lined with bundles of plastic, wires, cables and other garbage.

2013 May 30, Ivan Watson, “China: The electronic wastebasket of the world”, in CNN, archived from the original on 2013-05-31:

GUIYU, China (Reuters) - The dizzying stench of burning plastic still drifts through the alleys, workshops and warehouses of Guiyu, the southern Chinese town that has long symbolized China’s role as the main recycler of the world’s waste.[...]In the 2000s, Guiyu became a symbol of the environmental devastation caused by recycling hazardous waste with little regulation after being singled out by groups like Greenpeace and featuring in a string of international media reports. Trash is still the mainstay of Guiyu’s economy, but hundreds of recycling businesses have been consolidated or shut completely in recent years and authorities are now cracking down on smuggled waste, further starving small and polluting businesses of supplies. “Although the dismantling of old electronics is the leading industry in Guiyu, we should say it was more a profession than an industry,” said Zheng Jinxiong, vice chairman of a government commission tasked with running the recycling industry park, set up on the edge of town.

2018 January 23, David Stanway, “China trash town's cleanup bolstered by import ban”, in Reuters, archived from the original on 2019-12-24:

For a long time, Guiyu in China was considered the world's biggest electronic trash dumping ground.

2018 February 14, Harald Franzen, “China cleans up electronic recycling”, in Deutsche Welle, archived from the original on 2018-02-15, Environment:

Before writing his debut novel, The Waste Tide, a 2013 eco-thriller about a workers’ uprising in a futuristic dump called Silicon Isle, Chen spent time in the southeastern city of Guiyu, one of the world’s largest dumping grounds for electronic waste, observing migrant workers toil in the toxin-laden trash.

/kɐu̯³⁵ t͡sɐn⁵⁵/

Ferlus (2012b) and Pain (2020) propose that 九真 (OC kuˀ-cin) transcribed *k.cin, a local autonym which is reflected in Puoc [Term?] (ksiːŋ muːl) & Thavung [script needed] (ktiːŋ²) meaning "human being, people", the latter from Proto-Vietic *kciːŋ, which consists of prefix *k- and *ciɲ (“leg, foot”); thus, "human beings" are "(those who are) on foot, those who stand on their feet."
Pain further suggests that "Cửu Chân might therefore have been inhabited by some ancestors of the Southern Vietic Thavung - Aheu."

Tingri

As we approached Tingri, the valley widened out and bent round to the South. Tingri itself was situated on the side of a small hill in the middle of a great plain, from which, looking to the South, was visible the wonderful chain of snowy peaks, many of them over 25,000 feet in height, which extends Westwards from Mount Everest. We crossed the Ra-chu—a tributary of the Bhong-chu, partly by bridges and partly by fords ; it was split up into a number of small and very muddy channels that took their rise from the Kyetrak Glacier. Tingri was to be our first base for reconnoitring^([sic – meaning reconnoitering]) the Northern and North-western approaches to Mount Everest.

1922, C. K. Howard-Bury, “From Khamba Dzong through Unknown Country to Tingri”, in Mount Everest: The Reconnaissance, 1921, Longmans, Green and Co., →OCLC, →OL, page 70:

Tingri lies at the edge of a vast plain. There are great views of the Himalayan giants to the south, assuming there's no cloud cover. Everest, or the uppermost part of it, is visible to the far left, but from this distance it doesn't look like a mammoth. However, Cho Oyu, straight ahead, looks stunning. It's worth taking a short hike to the south of Tingri for better views; another viewpoint is from the top of the hill above the village, where there are some old fort ruins.

2006 August, Michael Buckley, Tibet (Bradt Travel Guides), 2nd edition, Globe Pequot Press, →ISBN, →OCLC, →OL, page 200:

From there they would literally walk off the map, following a route that in seven days promised to reach Tingri Dzong, the Tibetan military garrison and trading depot that had long been anticipated as the base for the initial explorations of the northern approaches to the mountain.

2011, Wade Davis, Into the Silence: The Great War, Mallory and the Conquest of Everest, The Bodley Head, →ISBN, →OCLC, →OL, page 208:

Climbers say that China seems committed to avoiding the mistakes made by the Nepal government by issuing too many permits and increasing traffic. According to reports, China issued permits to only 22 Chinese nationals this year, out of the total 180 permits issued, in a bid to control traffic. The Chinese are also trying to boost their domestic tourism with a new mountaineering center in Tingri.
