Top NewsVictory Day Parade Held at Moscow's Red SquareAnchor:
A massive military parade marking the 70th anniversary of victory in the Great Patriotic4 War has been staged on Red Square in Moscow.
Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping, together with twenty other leaders of nations and international organizations, attended the event.
CRI's Luo Wen reports.
Reporter:
Among the many celebrations held in Russia commemorating5 the Great Patriotic War, the Red Square military parade is the most eye-catching event.
Saturday's event was the biggest one held in Russia in decades, with over 16-thousand soldiers taking part in the procession and around 200 units of military weaponry and equipment on display.
Russian President Vladimir Putin says the history of WWII is still appeals to people's minds and vigilance.
"In the 1930s, the enlightened Europe did not see a deadly threat from the Nazi8 ideology9 from the very beginning. And now, 70 years after, the history is again appealing to our minds and our vigilance. We should not forget that the ideas of racial superiority and exclusiveness led to the bloodiest10 war."As the famous Russian song "Katyusha" played in the background, China's honour guard marched in strict formation.
The team includes 112 uniformed soldiers from the three services of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA).
It is the first time for Chinese soldiers to participate in Russian Victory Day parades.
Military units from nine other countries, all in 70-strong formations, also joined the procession.
The troops were followed by the mechanized column, showcasing the legendary12 T-34 medium tank and the Su-100 self-propelled gun.
The flyover13 wrapped up the parade with 143 aircraft from 12 military airports flying over Red Square.

Chinese President's attendance at Russia military parade 'significant': researchersAnchor:
Many Russian researchers have spoken highly of Chinese President Xi Jinping's attendance at the military parade in Moscow.
CRI's Sophie Williams reports.
Reporter:
Vladimir Petrovsky, principal researcher at the Institute of Far Eastern Studies at the Russian Academy of Sciences, says President Xi's attendance is of great significance.
"Xi's trip to the parade in Russia has crucial symbolic15 and practical meanings. His arrival could remind people all over the world not to forget the important role China played during World War II. China and the former Soviet16 Union were allies in WWII, both countries had made great sacrifices and contributions for the victory of that war."He adds that celebrations for the victory of the Second World War could greatly help educate the youth of the two countries to learn from and remember history.
Sergey Lukanin, acting17 director of the Institute of Far Eastern Studies, says the Victory Day Parade is not meant to be targeted at any other country.
"It's not some kind of 'muscle show', and it's not against any country. China and Russia want to show that they both have the ability to guard their national interests."The military parade is part of the commemoration events held in Russia for the victory of Russia's war against the Nazis19 during the World War Two.
After the parade, President Xi walked with other leaders to the nearby Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to lay red flowers in salute6 to the soldiers who sacrificed their lives in the war.
In the meantime, around 300 thousand people marched through central Moscow on Saturday, carrying portraits of relatives who fought in the Second World War.

Chinese President Honors Russian VeteransAnchor:
As the two main battlefields in the fight against fascism in World War II, China and Russia each suffered heavy casualties.
Seventy years on, a Russia veteran recalls his experience of mutual22 cooperation with the Chinese people in the fight against Japanese aggression23.
Reporter:
88-year-old veteran Schudlo Taras Georgievich is one of the over 1.5 million the Soviet troops who assisted China during World War II.
Georgievich recalls that Chinese people's selflessness really motivated them.
"Transportation was the most difficult thing then. So was the supply of water and food. What I want to say is local Chinese people helped us a lot. It's fair to say that they were supporting us with marvelous devotion. They were actually very poor at the time, and would eat corns or sorghums only. "Georgievich has been invited many times to China in the past years due to his deep friendship with Chinese people.
His room is housing many souvenirs from China, including a TV set as a gift from Chinese leaders in 2005, the 60th anniversary of victory in the world anti-fascist war.
Georgievich says he and his veteran buddies25 want to do what they can for the friendship between China and Russia.
"Nowadays, we veterans are still doing our utmost to tell Russian people about the development of China, to let them know the actual China, Chinese soldiers, normal Chinese people, and the Communist Party of China."During his visit to Russia, Chinese President Xi Jinping has chaired a special event to thank for the contribution of the Russian veterans who helped China in fighting against Japanese invaders26 in the 1930s and 40s.
Xi Jinping spoke14 highly of the veteran's contribution to China and to the global fight against fascism.
"Upon the 70th anniversary of the victories in China's War of against Japanese Invasion and the war against fascism, I really feel excited to meet you here in Moscow. Many of you once participated in the battles to help liberate27 Chinese cities like Changchun, Shenyang, Mudanjiang and Dalian, making a great contribution to the victory of the Chinese people in the Sino-Japanese war."China and Russia suffered the biggest number of casualties among their nationals of all countries involved in the World War II, respectively over 35 million and 27 million.
For CRI, this is Luo Bin.
Interview with Belaruian President ahead of Xi's VisitBelarusian President says his country is ready to become a hub for the China-initiated28 Silk Road Economic Belt project.
Alexander Lukashenko made the comment ahead of Chinese President's state visit.
"We are modernizing29 the railways, highways and other infrastructures31 with China's help. Nowadays, transportation is very convenient in Belarus, which is an important guarantee for building the Silk Road Economic Belt. But more importantly, our country can be the hub for the economic belt which passes through Kazakhstan and Russia. So it needs a logistics platform, and Belarus can play this role. We can build this platform together."The Silk Road Economic Belt was proposed by China in 2013, aiming to bring together Asia and Europe with closer trade and cultural ties.
The Belarusian President also applauded China's upcoming commemoration this September of the 70th anniversary of the end of its war against Japan.
Xi Jinping is schedued to start a two-day visit to Belarus later on today.
Second Wanted Economic Fugitive Returned to ChinaAnchor:
Another suspect on China's "100 most wanted economic fugitives32" list has been repatriated33 from Singapore to China.
Analysts34 say the case is likely to set a precedent35 for future cases of repatriation36 and assets confiscation37 for criminals fleeing abroad.
CRI's Xie Cheng explains why.
Reporter:
"Running away to a foreign country is really a bad experience. I can't have any inner peace. I often wake up in the night, worrying about being captured by police. It's awful. I feel relieved to come back. I'll cooperate and confess to my crimes."Li Huabo is the first on a recent list of 100 wanted economic fugitives to be repatriated from abroad.
A former local official in east China's Jiangxi Province, Li was suspected of embezzling38 94 million yuan, around some 15 million US dollars.
He also funnelled39 29 million yuan through Singaporean banks before fleeing to the country in 2011.
In the following year, he was sentenced to 15 months behind bars by a Singaporean court for "dishonestly accepting stolen property" and then was repatriated after serving most of the sentence.
Media reports suggest that Chinese anti-graft officials were attending the trial as witness.
Besides coordinated40 law enforcement, China and Singapore have also been jointly42 working on the confiscation of Li's illegal assets.
Chinese anti-graft authorities have also begun to confiscate43 his illegal gains in abstention.
Huang Feng is the director of research institute of international crime law at Beijing Normal University.
He says the move is an unprecedented44 practice.
"Previous cases involving the seizure45 of illegal gains mainly direct at defendants46 who are dead. This is the first case to seize fugitives' illegal gains transferred overseas."The money includes 5 million Singapore dollars in assets, which has already been frozen by the Singaporean government.
Meanwhile Singapore has already returned a total of 182,000 Singapore dollars of Li's assets directly to the county government that Li used to work for.
Huang Feng says it is highly possible that the all the money can be returned to China in the end.
"I think there's a high possibility for the Singaporean procuratorial organs to acknowledge China's decision, especially when Chinese officials initiated the confiscation procedure, they have fully47 considered the conditions and terms required by relevant Singaporean law ."The expert says if successful, it'll set a very meaningful precedent for the confiscation of illegal gains transferred overseas.
Without an official number, Chinese economic fugitives have been accused of transferring hundreds of millions of dollars in illegal gains overseas.
The confiscation of the transferred assets has been highlighted as a priority for the government's current anti-graft campaign.

Keeping Safe on Road is for EveryoneAnchor:
China's Ministry48 of Public Security has urged drivers against road rage, releasing data showing a rise of nearly 4 percent in road-rage related incidents so far this year.
The caution comes on the backdrop of a recent case which saw an outraged49 male driver in the southwestern city of Chengdu beat another driver, claiming that her sudden lane change forced him to brake suddenly and frightened his one-year-old child in the back seat.
Reporter:
A video that shows the owner of a red Volkswagen dragging a female out of a red Hyundai sedan, before throwing her to the ground and kicking her face repeatedly has shocked everyone who watched it.
After being detained, the violent driver surnamed Zhang, told the police that he assaulted the woman after she changed lanes abruptly50 scaring his baby in the car. The baby's head hit the window during the incident.
Zhou Wenhui is an expert with the Road Traffic Safety Research Center of China's Ministry of Public Security.
"The father might have not used safety seat because a safety seat could fasten securely the baby's head and both shoulders. Compared with an adult, a baby has his or her head much heavier. Thus encountering an emergent brake might not be a big problem for an adult passenger but would severely51 injure baby's head."In fact, the rate of child restraint use is extremely low in Chinese cities.
According to a 2013 report from China's Maternal52 and Child Mortality Surveillance System, injuries, including road traffic accidents, are now the third most important cause of death in children under five after newborn and infectious causes in China.
To prevent tragedies among children at pedestrian crossings, Greg Smith, a road safety engineer with the International Road Assessment53 Program, explains the benefits of erecting54 speed humps for running vehicles.
"To be honestly, in Europe is same situation that can occur as well. Even if vehicles commonly stop at pedestrian crossings, there will be time when drivers make mistakes. So the idea is that they physically55 build a speed hump at the crossing, if the vehicle does have that point, it must do so as slow speed."Greg Smith now works with the Ministry of Transport research institute of highways to establish a road assessment program in China.
Based on his experience of working in China, Greg Smith proposed strong enforcements of traffic rules and laws.
"This is where some of the challenges particular to China and some of the Asian countries coming in. China has very good legislation about using the pedestrian crossings. Vehicles must yield to pedestrians56 when they using them. Unfortunately that doesn't always happen. So this is where the overlap57 between the Ministry of Public Security and Ministry of Transport becomes very important. You get the enforcement and infrastructure30 design working together to make a safer situation for children."He made the statement at a UNNICEF-launched salon58 in Beijing this week, calling attention to be paid to improving safety for children to reduce road accidents related death.

Epidemic prevention and reconstruction61 in NepalAnchor:
Two weeks into the aftermath of the devastating62 earthquake which hit Nepal on April 25, epidemic prevention and control work has entered into a crucial period.
CRI's Min Rui has more.
Reporter:
Medical experts say up till now, no epidemic disease has been detected, but there is still a high possibility of epidemic outbreaks.
The Chinese medical team has conducted sample surveys in Kathmandu on food and drinks as well as risk assessment to prevent and control possible epidemic outbreaks.
Head of the Chinese medical team Lu Lin says drinking water is a major problem and more disinfection work is still needed.
"Drinking water is a major problem as its safety has not been guaranteed. According to our detection, more disinfection work is still needed in many respects to ensure that water is safe to drink."In a joint41 effort with Nepalese Health Ministry, Chinese medical workers have completed more than 130 water sample analyses, and conducted surveys in 33 key affected63 areas.
Nepalese people spoke highly of Chinese medical team as they have provided food and tents in addition to medical services to many displaced residents.
Some local Nepalese also volunteered to assist in the work of the Chinese medical team.
"We are volunteers here. We took the Chinese medical team to the most-affected and smelly area, where many bodies were found. Local residents appreciated the help provided by Chinese people and thanked the team for conducting epidemic prevention work there."As for what will happen next, head of the Chinese medical team Lu Lin introduces the three different phases of quake relief work.
"Quake relief work usually comes in three phases - the first phase is emergency medical rescue; the second phase is disease prevention and control; and the third one is restoration and reconstruction. Our work has entered into a crucial period to prevent epidemic outbreaks after the earthquake."On Friday, Nepal's Prime Minister Sushil Koirala vowed64 to restore and reconstruct all damages within two years.
He also said the government would provide soft loans up to 25 thousand U.S. dollars for the reconstruction of private homes.

Sci&Tech (Sunday)Weekly Sci-TechAnchor:
Turning now to the news and events in science and technology from the past week.
A new kind of nuclear power plant is under construction in southeast China. A group of Chinese and American scientists claim they may have found the answer to the aging problem that besets82 human beings. And the United Arab Emirates is planning to send a probe to Mars.
Let's catch all the latest with CRI's Wenjie.
Reporter:
China has begun building a nuclear power station in Fujian province using a domestically-developed third-generation reactor83 design.
Xing Ji, general designer of Hualong One, says the project has new technologies to ensure the safety and efficiency of the plant.
"We've applied84 an airplane crash shell on the nuclear power unit, which will protect the unit from any malicious85 crash from large commercial planes. Meanwhile, we can secure a safe shutdown of the reactor and ensure its safety function after a plane crash since we've placed a nuclear safety system on each side of the reactor building."The nuclear project also features an advanced fuel management system to increase power generation by 5-10 percent.
Xing Ji said the homegrown facility will grant China more competitiveness in the global market for nuclear energy and technology.
"The technology has passed the nuclear safety assessment by the IAEA, which will improve our influence on the international nuclear market and the recognition from more potential users. Next, we will continue to enlarge our market internationally, and further exploit the market. We plan to introduce Hualong One technology to developed countries."Hualong One reactor technology has been jointly designed by two nuclear power giants, China General Nuclear Power Group and China National Nuclear Corporation.
Construction will be completed by the end of 2020.
////////////////////Some exciting news from the life-science field.
A group of Chinese and US researchers may have found the answer to the aging process in human beings.
Scientists say the disorganization of heterochromatin, a tightly packed DNA86 type, is a key driving force of human stem cell aging.
The findings could lead to methods of preventing and treating age-related diseases such as cancer, diabetes87 and Alzheimer's disease.
Aging is mainly caused by damage to DNA, which is difficult to reverse.
However the new findings suggest reversing the damage is possible.
Scientists are now working to delve88 into a compound to interrupt the human aging process and reduce cases of geriatric diseases.
////////////////////A group of Chinese and British researchers have developed a self-cleaning paint that can withstand contact with substances such as oil, even after being scratched or scuffed89 with sandpaper.
The new coating was made from titanium dioxide nanoparticles and can be applied to clothes, paper, glass and steel.
The coating was devised by University College London researcher Yao Lu and his supervisor91 Claire Carmalt.
Yao Lu said he got inspiration from the water-resistant properties of plants.
"I am quite interested in self-cleaning coatings in nature, such as those found in some plants species. We put water on superhydrophobic plants, and they don't get wet. Instead the water will form drops and then roll off or just bounce away and leave the surface dry and clean."The researchers say that having completely water-resilient surfaces allows water to roll over the surface, acting like miniature vacuum cleaners, picking up dirt, viruses and bacteria.
The biggest challenge for the widespread application of this new coating is to make it tough enough to withstand everyday damage.
The study also involved researchers from Dalian University of Technology in China and Imperial College London in the UK.
///////////////////Engineers in central China's Hubei province are working to develop a 3D navigation system based on the country's Beidou Navigation Satellite System.
A number of vehicles have been travelling the streets of Wuhan to collect 3D data.
"Currently the cars are using two-dimensional navigation. But in the future it will move towards three-dimensional nav. The navigation will become real-view. When you use it, you feel like you are driving on the road. I think this is the most promising future of three-dimensional maps and mobile measuring tech applications."The engineers will process all the information including coordinates93 and images before putting them into mobile data terminals.
The terminals could also be designated to different groups according to their demands.
/////////////////Chinese computer anti-virus firm Qihoo 360 is suggesting market differences are the main reason behind the firm being censured94 by three different testing organizations for allegedly cheating on some of its international evaluations95.
Three separate labs in Austria, Germany and the UK have stripped Qihoo of all its international certifications and rankings for this year.
This comes after the labs discovered Qihoo sent them different software programs which aren't available to consumers.
Qihoo vice-President Qu Xiaodong says the company's antivirus software is based on multi-engine architecture, meaning it works differently in overseas markets compared to China.
"We use different engines for 360 security products in various markets. 360 is an antivirus software with multi- engines. In the Chinese market, we are using the QVM engine based on cloud technology which is more suitable given the market rules."In admonishing96 Qihoo, the three labs say they're also going to increase their scrutiny97 of the company in any future testing.
Qihoo 360 is a Beijing-based antivirus software producer.
It reported revenues of 1.4-billion U.S. dollars in 2014.
/////////////////////The United Arab Emirates is planning to send an unmanned probe to Mars in 2020 to study the atmosphere of the Red Planet.
Sheikh Mohammed, Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE, says the mission will provide inspiration to Arabic countries facing conflicts.
"This mission to Mars is really for the hope of the Arab world and sending them a message to say you can be better. You can improve your country. You can reach where you want."Sarah Amiri, lead engineer on the project, says the main scientific mission is to collect data on Mars' climate and atmosphere.
"Our project also aims towards sending a probe there. That is actually very significant to the science community. It provides the first holistic98 picture of the Martian atmosphere with all of the dynamics99 and all of the layers that happen over there. It also studies the rates of hydrogen and oxygen escape and the reasons for that into space. This is a significant contribution and this is the first time that such data is available to the wider science community and the wider Mars community."The probe is expected to arrive by 2021 to coincide with the 50th anniversary of UAE's foundation.
Nearly 100 scientists attended the event and will be working on the project.
But officials have not said how much it will cost.
