Chinese President Urges Efforts to Step Up Anti-corruption Drive
 
Anchor:
Chinese President Xi Jinping is ordering ongoing8 and improved efforts in the fight against corruption across the country in 2015.
CRI's Qizhi has more.
Reporter:
Speaking at a meeting of the Party's Central Commission for Discipline Inspection9, the country's top anti-corruption body, President Xi praised the counter-corruption drive in 2014, calling it "effective".
During the past year, a number of senior officials, including security chief Zhou Yongkang, military leader Xu Caihou and political advisor10 Ling Jihua, were placed under investigation11.
President Xi says it shows the world that the CPC is not afraid of taking a "self-purifying" approach.
But he also warns that more work must be done to truly cure the ills of corruption.
"When it comes to investigating and the treatment of corruption cases, our attitude of zero-tolerance12 will not change. Our determination to use strong remedies to cure illness will not change. Our courage to rid our bones of poison will not diminish. Our standard of severe punishment will not loosen. If a case is exposed, we shall deal with it. We will deal with it no matter how many cases we come across."
He adds that the party will keep up the anti-corruption momentum13 with the aim of creating a strong sense of deterrence14.
He also notes that misconduct has not vanished and counter-corruption strategies are not perfect.
The President has stressed that discipline and rules are very important in the fight against corruption.
"Party members should obey disciplines and rules, and the authority and unity15 of the CPC Central Committee must be safeguarded at all times. Organizational procedures must be observed with Party members conferring with their superiors when handling major issues. Members must not overstep their authority and must obey the decisions of the Party. Members and officials must supervise their families and the staff working around them. They should not give tacit consent to anyone seeking illegitimate interests through their association."
In his speech, President Xi has also taken time to address the supervision17 of state-owned enterprises.
"We should intensify18 the CPC's leadership over state-owned enterprises, strengthen the supervision on their executives, do a good job during inspection tours and enhance audits19 and inspections20. State-owned assets and resources are the common property of all people of the country."
Xi Jinping says the war on corruption is far from over and the fight must continue.
For CRI, I'm qizhi.
 
 
10 Turks detained for helping terrorists fleeing China
 
Police in Shanghai have detained 10 Turkish nationals who allegedly provided assistance for terror suspects in Xinjiang.
According to the Beijing-based Global Times newspaper, 11 other people, including 9 terror suspects from Xinjiang, have also been taken into custody22.
The 10 Turkish detainees are accused of providing fake Turkish passports for terror suspects. The alleged21 terrorists were trying to leave China illegally through Shanghai Pudong Airport. Each of them had paid 60 thousand yuan for an illegal passport.
Audio and video materials related to terrorism were found among the suspects who were trying to leave China.
They had been bound for Syria, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.
The investigation is ongoing.
Meanwhile, authorities in Xinjiang have announced that people who buy fireworks and firecrackers for Chinese New Year will have to register using their ID cards.
A local official says this is to prevent terrorists from obtaining raw materials to make explosive devices.
Firework retail24 outlets25 will need to record the type and quantity of products purchased by each customer.
Earlier this week, police in Shule County in Xinjiang shot dead six attackers who attempted to detonate explosive devices attached to their bodies.
 
 
French MPs Extend Strikes on IS; PM Warns of 'High Risks'
 
France's lower house of parliament has approved extending French airstrikes against the Islamic State group in Iraq.
The vote comes days after the Paris attacks - the country's worst in decades.
France joined the United States in conducting airstrikes against the IS last year.
However, French law requires a vote on extending such operations after four months.
MPs were holding a parliamentary session dedicated26 to last week's violence.
They observed a minute's silence for the victims before singing the national anthem27, the Marseillaise.
Addressing the session, Prime Minister Manuel Valls says "high risks" remain in the country.
"Dear members of parliament, at no time should we lower our guard. And I want to say with gravity to the nation's representatives and through you to our citizens that not only the global threat is still present but also that serious and high risks remain, linked to last week events."
French police say as many as six members of the terrorist cell that carried out the Paris attacks may still be at large.
Amid the hunt for accomplices28, Bulgarian authorities say they have a Frenchman under arrest who is believed to have links to one of the Charlie Hebdo attackers.
The satirical weekly itself is defying the terror of last week by printing a new issue later today, with the cover featuring a crying Prophet Mohammed in a white turban and holding a sign that reads "I am Charlie" under the title: "All is forgiven".
 
 
Merkel joins march for tolerance and against growing anti-Islam protests
 
German Chancellor29 Angela Merkel has joined some 6,000 people in Berlin to promote religious tolerance and to commemorate30 the victims of last week's attacks by Islamic militants31 in Paris.
This happens after a new round of anti-Islam rallies launched by the group called Patriotic32 Europeans against the Islamisation of the West, in the German city of Dresden.
Angela Merkel, German Chancellor, warns against xenophobia, ahead of attending a rally for tolerance
"Excluding population groups due to their faith or their origin is not according to the values of our liberal state and not according to our constitutionally established values and it is inhuman33. Xenophobia, racism34 and extremism do not have a place here in this country."
The latest protest organized on Monday by the anti-immigration group drew a record 25-thousand supporters, with speakers citing the Paris attacks as proof of the danger posed by Islam.
Merkel has spoken out against the Group, accusing it of seeking to divide German society and capitalising on people's fears.
Germany has some 4 million Muslim residents, equivalent to about 5 percent of the population of 80 million.
 
 
Obama unveils a cybersecurity legislative35 proposal
 
U.S. President Barack Obama has unveiled a cyber security proposal to promote better information sharing between government and the private sector36.
He announced his plan one day after the Twitter and YouTube accounts of the US military command was hacked37 by a group claiming to back the Islamic State.
"Today I want to announce some additional steps. First we are proposing new cyber security legislation to promote the greater information sharing we need between the government and private sector. This builds and improves on legislation we've put forward in the past. It reflects years of extensive discussions with industry, includes liability protections for companies that share information on cyber threats. It includes essential safetguards to ensure government protects privacy and civil liberties even as we're doing our job of safeguarding America's critical information networks."
The White House hopes to build momentum for the legislative move at a cyber security summit slated38 for Feb. 13.
Obama has elevated cyber security to the top of his 2015 agenda and will send the legislation to Capitol Hill immediately.
 
 
Civilians40 Killed as Bus Hit by Shell in Eastern Ukraine
 
A passenger bus has been hit by a shell near a military checkpoint in eastern Ukraine, killing41 at least 11 civilians and wounding several others.
Among the dead are six women and a teenager.
Regional authorities loyal to Kiev say the bus had been passing a Ukrainian army checkpoint, putting it in the line of fire.
Leonid Matyukhin is the spokesperson for Ukraine's Anti-Terrorist Operation.
"At 1415, the checkpoint near Volnovakha was under shelling from Dokuchaivsk town, controlled by terrorists. As a result, a civilian39 bus, on its way from Zlatoustovka to Donetsk, was destroyed."
Bus routes in the area have now been suspended.
Rebels in eastern Ukraine have denied responsibility for the incident.
Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has condemned43 the attack
"Today's terrible tragedy near Volnovakha belongs to the events that stand out due to their cruelty even under strict standards of modern times. These events give the creeps."
Poroshenko says he will sign a decree later today on the next wave of mobilization against the rebels.
The incident is likely to deal the final blow to hopes that a short-lived and shaky cease-fire could take hold.
Diplomacy44 to end the conflict has also suffered a setback45.
A multilateral summit between leaders from Ukraine, Russia, Germany and France over the situation in eastern Ukraine has already been called off.
The meeting, originally planned for Thursday in Kazakhstan, was aimed at signing a peace document between Kiev and Moscow.
 
 
Egypt's Mubarak to Be Retried on Embezzlement46 Case

The former president has already been cleared over the killings47 of protesters during Egypt's 2011 uprising that toppled him.
The court overturned an earlier verdict, which had sentenced Mubarak to three years' imprisonment48 for embezzling49 nearly 18 million US dollars allocated50 for the renovation51 of the presidential palaces.

Japan, China hold maritime56 crisis talks in Tokyo
 
Chinese and Japanese defense57 officials have resumed talks on setting up a maritime crisis management plan to try to prevent clashes at sea.
These same discussions broke off in 2012 after the Japanese government's move to nationalize the Diaoyu Islands.
Working-level talks in Tokyo have seen the two sides agree to set up a hotline, use a common radio frequency for ships and planes around the islands, and hold annual meetings.
Teng Jianqun with the China Institute of International Studies says the talks are the right step to further defuse tensions around the Diaoyu Islands.
"I think China wants to maintain stability in the East China Sea, which will bring benefits to both countries. It's in no one's interest to escalate58 tensions regarding the Diaoyu Islands issue."
China and Japan reached an agreement in November to try to better-manage their disputes and improve ties.
That agreement was made ahead of a meeting between Chinese President Xi Jinping and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe during the APEC conference in Beijing.

Some accounts shut down masqueraded as public organizations or media groups, such as The People's Daily and inspection groups of the China Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and thus sent out fake information.
Other accounts were closed for selling counterfeit68 invoices69 and spreading information about gambling70 and guns.

Rail Merger Threatened by Insider Trading Allegations
 
Over to the Chinese stocks,
Shares of Chinese trainmakers CSR and SNR rebounded75 on Tuesday, after dipping during several consecutive76 days of trading amid claims of the two companies being involved in insider trading before the announcement of a merger.
At market close on Tuesday, CSR shares jumped 3.8 percent while CNR shares surged 4.2 percent.
The recent slide follows allegations in the media that more than 20 executives of the two companies and their relatives have traded shares during the six-month period prior to a trading suspension last October.
The two companies have both issued statements denying the insider trading accusations77, saying the trading involved investments made by individuals and therefore doesn't qualify as insider trading.
However, the final announcement of the merger plan, which took place two weeks ago, has sent the two companies' shares soaring over 30 percent, generating huge profits for those who had bought before the suspension.
It is not yet clear whether the securities regulator will launch an investigation into the matter.
For more on this, we are now joined live by Benjamin Cavender, Principal at China Market Research.

China December Trade Data Beats Expectations
 
The latest trade figures show that China's exports and imports exceeded market expectations in December.
Exports increased nearly 10 percent from a year earlier.
That's up significantly from the 4.7-percent growth in exports seen in November.
Meanwhile, imports dropped for a second consecutive month, declining by 2.4 percent.
The final numbers for the year mean exports rose more than 6 percent year on year in 2014, while imports gained by just under half a percent.
Zheng Yuesheng, spokesman for the General Administration of Customs, says this year's first quarter export growth still faces pressure.
"We think the negative factors that crimped trade performance in 2014, such as the weak global economic recovery, China's disappearing low-cost advantage, decreasing foreign investment in the manufacturing sector, and falling global commodity prices and so on will be sustained for a period of time. Those factors will continue affecting our foreign trade in 2015,"
Last year, the country's total export and import values expanded 3.4 percent year on year.
That is well below the government's initial target of 7.5-percent.
2014 is the 3rd year in a row where China's foreign trade volumes have missed official targets.

Japan to extend visa validity for Chinese tourists to boost consumption
 
Anchor:
Japan will further ease visa requirements for high-spending Chinese tourists in an effort to boost its weak consumption and slow economy.
CRI's Doris Wang has more.
Reporter:
Starting on January 19, the Japanese government will extend the validity of multiple-entry visas for Chinese tourists from three to five years. The tourists will also have unrestricted travel throughout Japan.
The move aims to attract more Chinese visitors, who are playing an increasingly important role in bolstering94 consumer spending and economic growth in Japan.
Hitomi Takahashi is the manager of a sales division at the branch of the Japanese cosmetic95 maker74 Shiseido company at the luxurious96 shopping district in central Tokyo Ginza.
She says:
"This shopping street brings together visitors from across the world and Chinese consumers account for more than 70 percent of them. We have Chinese salespeople97 in our shop and we also have several Chinese interpreters so that we can communicate with Chinese tourists."
The yen's slump98 to a seven-year low against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is also broadening the country's appeal globally.
Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry estimates that some 2.2 million Chinese visited Japan in the first 10 months of 2014, contributing more than a third of the total spending by foreign tourists.
According to the Japanese Tourism Agency, the average Chinese tourist spent about 2,000 U.S. dollars last year, more than three times as much as visitors of other nationalities.
Chinese tourists said the main appeal of Japanese products is their perceived superior quality and lower prices.
"I came to buy some electronics, including cameras and cellphones, and also clothes, items for daily use and cosmetic products because the exchange rate has dropped recently. Some of my friends go to school here and they often go back to China with bags of purchases. I think maybe the reason that people come here to buy is that prices in our country are higher."
The Japanese government plans to further expand the range of goods exempt99 from consumption tax for foreign tourists, possibly to include cosmetics100, food and alcoholic101 beverages102 in the next fiscal year. Analysts103 believe the move is likely to lure104 more foreign nationals and help buoy105 the recession-bit economy.
