Top News China evacuates8 last batch of citizens from Yemen The Chinese government has temporarily closed its embassy in Yemen, evacuating9 all the staff due to the worsening security conditions there. A Chinese navy vessel10 is taking a batch of 38 Chinese nationals in Yemen, along with 45 Sri Lanka nationals, to Djibouti. Another Chinese naval11 vessel will evacuate7 9 other Chinese citizens and one Japanese citizen from another location in Yemen. Eight other Chinese citizens who had originally stayed behind in Yemen have also left on-board a Pakistani vessel. Over 600 Chinese citizens have now been moved out of Yemen amid the fighting there between the Shiite Houthi rebels and forces loyal to exiled President Abd Raboo Mansour Hadi. Those forces include an international Sunni-backed coalition12 led by Saudi Arabia. At least 53 killed in 24 hours of fighting in Yemen Over 50 people have been killed over the past 24-hours in intensified13 fighting in Yemen between the Houthi rebels and pro-government fighters in the port city of Aden. Explosions have been rattling14 homes in the suburbs of Aden, which is one of exiled Yemeni President Abd Raboo Man?ur Hadi's last strongholds. Saudi air strikes have been targeting Shiite-Houthi rebels for almost two weeks. At the same time, humanitarian15 aid flights meant to carry medical supplies into Yemen are being held back because of logistical problems. The Red Cross says it's been unable to find a cargo16 plane to ship some 48-tonnes of medical supplies into the country. The Red Cross is also calling for a 24-hour ceasefire in Aden. Russia has also been pressing the UN Security Council to support calls for a "humanitarian pause" in the air strikes. However, the Saudi side is suggesting there will be no let-up for the time being. Brigadier General Ahmed Asseri speaks on behalf of the Saudi-led coalition. "At the moment, Aden is being targeted for the most part by campaigns coming in from Dale'a, Shabwah and Hodaydah. There is consistent support to the coalition strikes from tribes in and around Aden. The air strikes are ongoing18 and the objectives are clear. At the moment these militias19 have one of two choices: they remain within their military camps, in this manner they would fall under the air strikes, or they can go out towards Aden, then again they will become a clear target for the coalition forces air strikes." Abd Raboo Mansour Hadi was forced to flee Yemen two weeks ago, as the Houthi's advanced on Aden. They are supported by troops loyal to former President Ali Abdullah Saleh, who was ousted20 in the Arab Spring protests. UN official says situation in Palestinian refugee camp in Syrian capital 'beyond inhumane' The United Nations is describing the situation in an embattled Palestinian refugee camp on the outskirts21 of Damascus as "beyond inhumane." This is the refugee camp which has been over-run by Islamic State militants22. Palestinian fighters and members of the so-called Free Syrian Army have been battling the militants. The camp itself is home to some 18-thousand people, one-fifth of whom are children. Chris Gunness is with the UN Relief Agency. "We have not been able to send any food or any convoys23 into the camp since the current round of fighting started. And of course that means that there is no food, there is no water and there's very little medicine. The situation in the camp is beyond inhumane. People are hold up in their houses, there is fighting going on in the streets. There are reports of aerial bombardment. This has to stop and civilians24 must be evacuated25." The fighting in Yarmouk began on Wednesday after the Islamic State group muscled into the camp. It's said to be the group's first major attack near the heart of the Syrian capital. People living in Yarmouk had already been enduring desperate conditions before the attack, including a lack of food, medicine and water. The conflict in Syria, which has entered its fifth year, has claimed the lives of more than 200-thousand people. It's also displaced millions of others. 300 Kidnapped Kurds in Syria freed by Islamist rebels Islamist rebel fighters have released some 300 Kurdish men who had been taken captive in northwest Syria. Reports say the men were seized from buses travelling from the town of Afrin to the city of Aleppo. Initial reports suggest a splinter faction26 known as Jaysh al-Islam, or the Army of Islam, took the hostages, who were later released as part of a prisoner swap27. These reports have not been confirmed. Meanwhile, Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi says his government is planning to work more tightly with Kurdish authorities to help liberate28 the northern province of Nineveh in Iraq from the Islamic State. "There's a small group attempting to attach itself to the (Shi'ite fighters known as) Hashid Shaabi and attack civilians and their belongings29 and offend the Hahsid Shaabi. Our measures include the arrest of these people and presenting them to court and indeed, we have done so in Tikrit, where we have arrested a few of those people and presented them to court." A timetable for a plan to retake Nineveh hasn't been laid-out. The provincial31 capital, Mosul, is a key target for Iraqi forces hoping to clear the country of Islamic State fighters. It's expected the assault on Nineveh could begin within the next few weeks. The university attack: a devastating32 blow to Kenya's tourism and education Anchor The local service industry in Kenya is already starting to feel the pinch from last week's deadly attack on a university campus by al-Shabaab militants which left close to 150 people dead. CRI's Wang Mengzhen has more. Reporter Hotels along Kenya's coast, as well as game park reserves, say they're already starting to see tourists cancelling trips. The damage is expected to become clearer later on this Tuesday. This is when European tour operators return to work after the Easter holiday. Mohammed Hersi is the chair of Kenya's Coast Tourism Association. "The status of the tourism industry, especially at the coast, is not good at all. The persistent34 advisories35 even on non-essentials is not helping36 us at all and the recent attack may not have happened in Mombasa but happened in Garrisa where we lost many young people which is very unfortunate that equally paints the destination in a negative picture." As a vital part of the national economy, Kenya's tourism industry has already been in a decline since 2013 when al-Shabaab militants stormed an upscale shopping mall in the capital Nairobi, leaving 67 people dead. Since then, repeated al-Shabaab attacks have prompted travel warnings by countries like Britain, the United States and Australia, among others. In response, Mohammed Hersi says many hotel staff have decided37 to take pay cuts as deep as 50-percent to avoid being laid off completely. "For us to survive, many hotels have sent staff on unpaid38 leave, some are actually laying off people, others are retrenching39 and some are actually taking pay cuts." At the same time, hundreds of Kenyans have begun a three-day blood drive for those injured in the attack on Garissa University. "I came here today to donate blood for our brothers and sisters who survived in Garissa, some have lost their lives, but the blood will go a long way to help them recover quickly." Four years ago, Garissa University College opened its doors as northern Kenya's first university. However, the university has been shut down after the attack. It's future remains40 uncertian. For CRI, I am Wang Mengzhen. Japan releases review results of new textbooks Japan's Ministry41 of Education Ministry has released a review of new textbooks to be used in junior high schools next school year. The nex text books include revised expressions about Japan's war-time past. The new texts include changes to the language surrounding the Nanjing Massacre42, which critics say softens43 the impact of what the Japanese army did. The textbooks also change previous language connected to territorial44 disputes and the use of sex slaves, or so-called "comfort women" by the Japanese Military during the war. Yang Bojiang is the deputy director of the Institute of Japanese Studies with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. "An important revision connected to the 'comfort women' issue is an addition that states there is no evidence that these women were 'forced'. That's very close to the official stance of Prime Minister Abe's administration." Yang Bojiang also says the timing45 of the review by the Japanese Education Ministry should also be noted46. "This year marks the 70th anniversary of the end of WWII and Japan's defeat in the war. The Japanese government wants to take a pre-emptive move so that they will not lose the moral ground. But I believe such efforts will be in vain." Japan's relations with China and South Korea continue to be frayed47 over both territorial and historical disputes. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is expected to release a new statement connected to Japan's wartime past to mark the 70th anniversary of the end of the war, which many critics believe will include a watering-down of Japanese atrocities48. Rand Paul unveils slogan ahead of U.S. presidential campaign announcement U.S. Republican Senator Rand Paul has revealed his new campaign slogan ahead of his official announcement that he's going to be seeking the Republican nomination49 for President. The Libertarian candidate's campaign slogan is going to be "Defeat the Washington machine. Unleash50 the American dream." The Kentucky Senator has also pitched himself as a "different kind of Republican" in a new video he's released. Rand Paul is due to formally enter the GOP presidential race at a rally in Louisville, Kentucky later on this Tuesday. He will join Texas Senator Ted3 Cruz as the only two official candidates who have signed on for the race so-far. Polling has Rand Paul with around 8 percent supporting among GOP voters. This is well-behind the party's leading potential candidate Jeb Bush, who has 21 percent support, even though he has yet to officially enter the race. China Vows51 Cooperation with Lancang-Mekong River Nations The Chinese government says it's working on plans to increase cooperation with the five countries along the Mekong River. The pledge is part of the "One Belt and One Road" initiative. China, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam are the countries which lie along the Mekong. The pledge has been made at a meeting among senior officials from Mekong River countries at a meeting in Beijing on Monday. Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi. "It's best advantage is that it can help countries in the Indo-China Peninsula develop fast, which will also be good for ASEAN's development. Actually the area is included in the 'One Belt and One Road', and this mechanism52 is one part of the combination of 'One Belt and One Road' and local development strategies." The meeting has also laid out plans for a foreign ministers' meeting among Mekong River countries later this year in Beijing. Trade volume among the six countries along the Mekong exceeded 150-billion U.S. dollars in 2013. Collective bribery53 case under investigation54 in Zhanjiang, Guangdong province Anchor A court in the city of Zhanjiang in Guangdong is preparing to hand down sentences to some 3-dozen people convicted in a bribery scheme connected to the city's department of motor vehicles. The details from CRI's Qi Zhi Reporter A total of 40 people have been convicted in a bribery scheme which involved people having to pay some 600 yuan each to pass their drivers exam. The courts have heard the would-be drivers would pay the money to their driving instructors55. The instructors would then pay kickbacks56 to the local department of motor vehicles. Those convicted include the head of Zhanjiang's department of motor vehicles, as well as a number of officials with the department, as well as a group of driving instructors. Reporter Lan Fen30 works at a local TV station, and covered the story after it broke in 2013. She says it appears the bribes57 were a poorly-kept secret in Zhanjiang. "What surprised me is the unspoken rule of passing the driving test by offering money was known by virtually everyone locally. One driver told us that when signing up for a driving school, bribes for the examiners were added to the tuition fee. Even if they knew the money was meant for something illegal, the drivers couldn't refuse. If the driver didn't offer the extra money, they would have to take their driver's test again. But if they did pay the money, even if their driving skills weren't good enough to pass, they would still get their license58." So far, over 21-million yuan has been returned as part of the investigation. The chief of the Zhanjiang Department of Motor Vehicles, Liang Zhihong, has already been handed a 10-year sentence. Yue Shenshan, a Beijing-based lawyer, says harsh punishment is possible for some of the others convicted, who are still awaiting their sentences. "These examiners have already been removed from their posts. This is part of their administrative59 punishment. However, this doesn't mean they will be spared from criminal punishment. It will all depend on their individual circumstances." Under the current laws, anyone convicted of taking a bribes worth over 100-thousand yuan faces sentences ranging from 10-years in prison to the death penalty in certain cases. For CRI, I'm Qi Zhi. News Solutions to Meet Difficulties of Chinese Dairy Farmers Anchor Dairy farmers in the northwestern Chinese region of Ningxia are being offered a new opportunity to help them survive amid the massive downturn in milk prices. CRI's Qian Shanming has more. Reporter A new program being launched in Ningxia will allow local farmers to lease out their cows to large-scale dairy cooperatives. This will allow them to draw rent from the animals without being forced to slaughter60 their herds61, as a number of small-scale dairy farmers have been forced to do to survive. Wu Yanhu with an animal husbandry station in Ningxia says not only will the farmers benefit from not having to worry about milk prices, but the milk the cows produce on the large-scale farms is likely to be of much better quality. "We do cellular62 testing on the conditions of both the cows and the milk they produce. We've found that cows belonging to private farmers lag behind due to the tougher environment the cows are raised on, as well as a lack of proper breeding skills." Many of the large-scale milk producers in China are also reluctant to purchase milk from independent producers because of such concerns. Yan Jianguo is the president of a Chinese dairy producer. "We like to buy milk from pastures which have between one to three thousand cows. This way we know the pasture is our base throughout the entire management chain, from feeding to milking to the pasturization of the milk. We are in-charge of it all." On top of the new cooperative program, authorities in Ningxia are also setting aside 90-million yuan to help local farmers increase their competitiveness. For CRI, this is Qian Shanming. Biz Reports Anchor First, a quick look at the closing numbers across North America and Europe. Reporter U.S. markets ended higher on Monday, as an unexpectedly weak jobs report released last week gave investors some relief that the Federal Reserve will move more slowly in raising rates. Friday's disappointing jobs report, which came out while the market was closed for Good Friday, has spurred concerns about weak US economic growth in early 2015. The US Labor63 Department has reported that only 126-thousand new jobs were added last month. This is well below economists64' estimate of 245-thousand. Seperate reports suggest most market participants now see the Federal Reserve waiting until December to deliver a rate hike. A strong rebound65 in oil prices also provided some upward strength to the markets. U.S. oil prices leapt more than 6-percent on Monday as traders reassessed how quickly Iran could increase exports after its preliminary nuclear deal. At market close, Both the Dow Jones and the S&P 500 gained 0.7 percent. The Nasdaq Composite Index went up 0.6 percent. European markets were closed Monday for the Easter Holiday. Trading of trainmaker's shares resumes today Trading of China's newly merged66 train makers67 will resume today on the Shanghai Stock Exchange. This after the China Securities Regulatory Commission approved the merger68 of CSR and CNR last week. CSR and CNR's merger has also been cleared by Chinese anti-trust authorities. Shanghai Stock Exchange to allow multiple trading accounts The Shanghai Stock Exchange is set to allow individual investors to open multiple trading accounts with different brokerage firms. The new scheme will replace the current rules which only allows investors to have one trading account. The existing rule came into place back in 1998 to curb69 the illegal selling of investors' trading accounts among brokerage firms. The new scheme will maintain rules that stop brokerage firms from selling their customers' trading account without prior consent. China's A-share market is back on an upswing after years of sluggish70 investment enthusiasm. Xiang'eqiang default on corporate71 bond A publically-traded Chinese restaurant has confirmed it's going to default on a corporate bond payment due today. The Beijing Xiang'eqing Group, which offers cuisines72 from Hunan, Guangxi and Guangdong has confirmed it is unable to pay some 40-million US dollars it owes for both mature bonds and interest payments on outstanding ones. In making the announcement, the Xiang'eqing says its still hoping to raise money from third party sources. Chinese high-end restaurants have taken a hit over the past year after the government launched its campaign to curb spending on banquets. Xiang'eqing is listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. Call-in with Gao Shang Oil Price Rebounds73 Oil futures74 climbed more than a dollar a barrel on Monday after Saudi Arabia raised its prices for crude sales to Asia for the second month running. The move made by Saudi Arabia, the world's largest crude exporter, is being seen as a signal of improved demand in the region. Saudi Arabia has been maintaining its output, and had been slashing75 its sales prices to generate more market share in Asia. The Saudi ability to raise prices for April and May is suggesting its strategy could be working. For more on the rebound in oil prices we are joined on the line by Gao Shang, analyst76 with Guantong Futures. Questions: 1, What impact will the Saudi sale price increase have on the overall Asian market? Will other suppliers increase their prices? 2, What level are China's strategic crude supplies at right now? How much do Chinese refiners need right now to keep going? 3, Where do you see global crude oil prices heading over the next few months? back anchor: Gao Shang, analyst with Guantong Futures. Price of burial site matches realty costs The vice33 mayor of Beijing is defending the high prices found in the city's burial plots, saying they are unavoidable. Vice mayor Dai Junliang has made the comments while responding to criticisms in the Ministry of Civil Affair's so-called "Green Book" on Funeral Services released this year. The "Green Book" notes price of burial sites in Beijing now averages over 40-thousand yuan per square meter. Prices can go as high as 80-thousand yuan per square meter in the four inner districts in the city. The "Green Book" suggests close to 90-percent of the costs for a funeral service in Beijing is the plot itself. China should set up housing bank to aid property market: official An official with the Ministry of Housing is calling for the establishment of a national housing bank to help assist the property market. Zhang Qiguang, head of the supervision77 department with the government's national housing fund is calling for a stand-alone financial institution to take over from the current system. Zhang suggests the bank could then offer low-interest loans to help middle and low income families afford houses. He suggests this could help to optimize78 the use of the current housing fund, as well as stimulate79 the sluggish housing market in the long-term. The housing fund, which collects capital by taking a chunk80 of an employee's salary, offers urban residents lower rates than those of commercial banks. However, it is a complicated procedure to borrow from the fund, meaning much of the capital ends up sitting unused. US not guaranteed preferential trade in Cuba The Cuban government is warning potential US investors they are not likely to be given preferential trade status, despite the lifting of trade restrictions81. Cuban Investment Minister Rodrigo Malimerca is being quoted saying US firms are only likely to get the same treatment as other international investors in the Cuban economy. But in making the statement, Malimerca does admit Cuba is looking forward to an influx82 of US money into the Cuban economy. Since announcing plans to normalize ties between the U.S. and Cuba late last year, American private sector83 interest in Cuba has been on the rise. A number of US delegations84 have already visited Cuba. Before the trade embargo85 was established in the 1950's, US business interests in Cuba were wide-spread. Germany owes Greece 278.7 bln euros in WWII reparations: Greek deputy FinMin A leading Greek finance official is suggesting the German government still owes Greece hundreds of billions of euros in reparations for World War II. Speaking at a Greek parliamentary committee set up to establish the roots of Greece's current economic woes86, Greek Deputy Finance Minister Dimitris Mardas has suggested the German government owes Greece 307 billion US dollars. He says they've come up with the figure by reviewing archives. A number of Greek politicians have been suggesting the German government still owes Greece massive amounts of money to repay the costs of the war on the Greek economy. Greece's newly-elected Leftist government has revived an old campaign to seek war reparations from Berlin for WWII Nazi87 crimes and an occupation loan. Berlin has refuted the suggestions as inflammatory, saying its reparations for Greece became a non-issue after Germany paid Greece about 60 million euros back in 1960. However, Athens argues that money only covered compensation for victims of Nazi crimes, but not for the destruction on Greece's economy during the occupation. Headline News China evacuates last batch of citizens from Yemen The Chinese government has temporarily closed its embassy in Yemen, evacuating all the staff due to the worsening security conditions there. A Chinese navy vessel is taking a batch of 38 Chinese nationals in Yemen, along with 45 Sri Lanka nationals, to Djibouti. Another Chinese naval vessel will evacuate 9 other Chinese citizens and one Japanese citizen from another location in Yemen. Eight other Chinese citizens who had originally stayed behind in Yemen have also left on-board a Pakistani vessel. Over 600 Chinese citizens have now been moved out of Yemen amid the fighting there between the Shiite Houthi rebels and forces loyal to exiled President Abd Raboo Mansour Hadi. Those forces include an international Sunni-backed coalition led by Saudi Arabia. 19 injured after flung off recreational facility in China Nineteen people have been injured, one critically, after being flung off an amusement park ride in Hunan.

Their conditions remain unclear. Over 400 firefighters are on the scene battling the fire in the city of Zhangzhou. This is the second accident at the same facility in the last 20-months. The factory itself produces an industrial chemical used for making fiber88 and plastics. Mass grave sites in Iraq under excavation89 Iraqi forensic90 teams have begun excavating91 12 suspected mass grave sites thought to hold the corpses92 of as many as 17-hundred soldiers massacred last summer by Islamic State militants. The mass killings93 last June of Shi'ite soldiers at a former U.S. base outside Tikrit has become a symbol of the brutality94 of the Islamic State. Images of Shi'ite soldiers being machine-gunned in the hundreds were posted online by the jihadists last summer. The forensic teams are now able to access the site after the Islamic State was driven from Tikrit earlier this month. Shanghai Stock Exchange to allow multiple trading accounts The Shanghai Stock Exchange is set to allow individual investors to open multiple trading accounts with different brokerage firms.

Anchor A rapid influx in the number of Chinese people looking to travel to the Antarctic is generating calls for new rules and guidelines to be laid out to protect both the people who travel there, as well as the highly-sensitive ecosystem96. CRI's Yu Yang has more. Reporter Ushuaia is the southernmost city in Argentina. As the jumping off point for Antarctica and the Southern Ocean, it welcomes over 100,000 visitors from all around the world every year. According to the International Association of Antarctica Tour Operators, 3,328 Chinese nationals visited the Antarctic continent last year, a ten-time increase from a decade ago. At the same time, the growing number of tourists flocking to Antarctica brings concerns about the fragile ecosystem there. Valeria Dreiser is an analyst from Academy of Tierra del Fuego in Argentina. She said related institutions and travel agencies have developed strict rules to restrict tourists' behavior, in a bid to protect the environment of the continent. "Tourists must wear clean rubber boots for all landings; they are not allowed to touch penguins97 or walk beyond the designated areas; they cannot walk alone; No one can leave his/her personal belongings on the continent, nor can he/she take anything away, including stones." Besides man-made rules, nature also sets boundaries for tourists. They need to be ready for sea-sickness, dry weather and high levels of UV radiation. Wang Li has just concluded her tour to the South Pole. "Sea-sickness is sometimes unavoidable, especially when you travel across the strong gusty98 westerlies between 40 and 60 latitudes99. I brought fresh ginger100, anti-sick patches that I placed on the skin behind the ears, pills, refreshing101 oil, peppermint102 oil and almost anything else I can think of, but I still felt very uncomfortable." Another torture for tourists is the unexpected dry weather. In fact, the Antarctic is the driest continent on Earth partly due to its scarce annual precipitation. Furthermore, the level of UV radiation in Antarctica is very high because the sea, ice and snow reflect more sunlight. "I wasn't aware of the two driest places in the world until I arrived in the South Pole. One is the Sahara desert, the other is Antarctica. The dryness there is beyond imagination. Be sure to take along sun lotion103 and moisturizer before the journey, and drink lots of water during the trip." Last but not the least, the Antarctica tour comes with high levels of uncertainty104. Everything is subject to weather and the state of the sea therefore the schedule could be changed at a moment's notice. So if travelers want to take a close look at the South Pole, they need to be both patient and well-prepared. For CRI, I'm Yu Yang. Sports Chinese Star Hurdler Liu Xiang to Announce Retirement105 China's Olympic 110m hurdles106 gold medallist and former world record holder107 Liu Xiang is expected to announce his retirement today. It's been 900 days since Liu pulled out of the 2012 London Games 110m hurdles with a blown Achilles tendon. Liu's coach, Sun Haiping, hinted at the athlete’s retirement in February, saying that the runner's Achilles was still hampering108 his performance. According to Liu's team doctor, the runner can manage only a 13.5-second time if he returns, which can not guarantee his qualification for top races. The runner's 17 commercial sponsorships are also due to expire this month. Liu became China's first male Olympic champion in athletics109 when he won the 110m hurdles at the 2004 Summer Games. Liu set the previous world record at 12.88 seconds Switzerland in 2006.
