Top NewsWar on drugs in Yunnan and XinjiangAnchor:
This year's Day comes amid the growing challenge authorities are having on the front-lines in China's border areas to stem the flow of drugs into this country.
CRI's Xie Cheng has more.
Reporter:
The southwestern Chinese province of Yunnan is on the front-line in the Chinese government's fight against drug trafficking.
It lies on the edge of the so-called Golden Triangle.
This is a mountainous and remote area covering parts of Laos, Thailand and Myanmar, and is one of the two largest areas in Asia where opium5 is produced.
A report released this week by the Chinese government is describing the Golden Triangle as the overwhelming source for the heroin7 and methamphetamine which is currently sold in China.
Figures in the study from the State Council show the amount of drugs confiscated8 in Yunnan have risen 5-fold over the past year.
Zhang Genquan is with the local police in city of Tengchong, which lies along the border with Myanmar.
"Although Myanmar has been trying to forbid opium planting, the business still widely exists."Border police also have to deal with logistical challenges in the region, as smugglers will use winding10 mountain paths to transport their goods across the border, making it extremely difficult to police.
It's believed upward of 90-percent of all the drugs which enter China do so through the Tengchong area.
This month alone, upward of 130-kilograms of illegal drugs have been seized in the region.
But the Golden Triangle isn't the only problem area in China.
Asia's 2nd largest heroine producing area is the so-called Golden Crescent, which covers parts of Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Much of what is produced in that area makes its way into China via its northwest Xinjiang region.
But local authorities in Xinjiang say they've been noting a change recently, with more people becoming hooked on non-opiates, such as methamphetamine.
Yang Suqun is the deputy chief of the local anti-drug force in Xinjiang.
"So far in 2015, we have solved 351 cases involving synthetic11 drugs and seized 119 kilograms of crystal meth, which is a nearly 100 percent rise year on year, and far exceeds the amount of heroin we seized in the same period last year."Official figures show around one-in-five known drug users in Xinjiang are hooked on meth.
On Thursday, President Xi Jinping took part in a meeting in Beijing to honor those trying to fight the battle against drugs on the frontlines.
The President says the drug situation along the borders is a problem for the whole of China.
"The antidrug work concerns our nation's security, prosperity and people's well-being12. We must fight the tough battle with a steadfast13 mind and solid work and there would be no rest until a sweeping14 victory."For CRI, I'm Xie Cheng.
Seized drugs burnt in Southeast AsiaAuthorities in Myanmar have torched a huge cache of seized narcotics15 in the outskirts16 of Yangon to mark anti-narcotics day.
Over 150-million U.S. dollars worth of illegal drugs have been torched.
It included opium, heroin and methamphetamines.
A recent report from the United Nations suggests the total area of land in Myanmar under cultivation17 for opium stabilized18 last year.
Myanmar's government has been taking steps to try to eradicate19 opium production, including introducing alternative cash crops for poppy farmers.
At the same time, 7 tonnes of confiscated drugs have also been incinerated in the outskirts of Bangkok in Thailand.
China criticizes US human rights record in annual reportAnchor:
The Chinese government has released a new report on the state of Human Rights in the United States.
The new study by the State Council is coinciding with the annual Human Rights report released by the US State Department.
Reporter:
China's report states the US side continues to make analysis of the human rights situations in numerous countries around the world, while showing no regret or intention to improve its own human rights record.
Chang Jian, Deputy Director of Nankai University's Human Rights Research Center, says that in releasing the report, the US government is using human rights as a tool to try to advance its own international political agenda.
"The report is always giving credit to courtiers that have consistent values with the United States, but then attacks others which do not have the same values. Generally, the report is negative when it comes to China's human rights. Although China has made improvements in its human rights record in recent years, the report just ignores them. The biggest problem here is that US is using human rights issues as a tool for its political ambitions. This is not a good thing for global human rights development."Liu Huawen with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences says what the US is doing is "behind the times" and "unwelcome", and should be abandoned.
"On the one hand, the US cannot face up to its long-standing20 problem with gun violence, police brutality21 and racial discrimination. Internationally, it delays the approval of the United Nations "International Covenant22 on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights", as well as the "Convention on the Rights of the Child." The US always has a complicated attitude when it comes to the UN human rights mechanisms23. On the other hand, each year it releases a report on the human rights situations of other countries, and views itself as a judge or vigilante, ignores thee achievements made in those countries and judges and criticize others, causing a lot of resentment24."The Chinese report points out that US authorities executed a Mexican citizen in April of last year without granting him access to consular25 assistance.
The Chinese side notes this should be viewed as a violation26 of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations.
China's report also notes the US has been caught spying on several countries around the world.
It lists the interception27 of phone conversations of 35 world leaders, the stealing of encrypted information of government organs in other countries and the collection program of mobile phone messages across the globe.

China, Russia to boost media cooperationAnchor:
Chinese and Russian media outlets28 are promising29 an increase in cooperation, with a focus on the development of both new and traditional media.
The pledge has been made at a China-Russia Media Forum30 underway in the Russian city of St. Petersburg.
CRI's Qi Zhi reports.
Reporter:
The China-Russia Media Forum is focusing on how to improve international communication in the era of all media.
Participants will also discuss the media's role in promoting the integration31 of the two countries' development strategies and boosting new-media exchanges and cooperation between China and Russia.
Liu Qibao, head of the Publicity32 Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, is leading the Chinese delegation33 at the forum.
He has called for Chinese and Russian media to cooperate more closely to advance the two countries' relations.
"As China-Russia relations have been making great strides, media organizations of both sides should deepen exchanges and center their cooperation on the two countries' major strategic blueprints34, initiatives and projects, so as to jointly36 boost the China-Russia comprehensive strategic partnership37 of coordination38 and facilitate the integration of China's Silk Road Economic Belt initiative with the Russia-led Eurasian Economic Union framework."Also attending the forum is a CRI delegation led by Director General Wang Gengnian.
On the sidelines of the forum, Wang and Dmitry Kiselyov, President of Russia's international news agency Russia Today, have signed a supplement to the cooperation agreement between the two news organizations.
Under the new deal, CRI and Russia Today will deepen cooperation in such areas as program and information exchanges, joint35 reporting projects and new media development.
During President Xi Jinping's visit to Russia in May, the two countries decided39 to launch a "China-Russia Media Exchange Year" from 2016 to 2017.
As part of the program, CRI and Russia Today have agreed to launch a joint reporting project in areas covered by China's Silk Road Economic Belt initiative.
Wang Gengnian says it's part of a broader project in China-Russia media cooperation.
"During the 'China-Russia Media Exchange Year', CRI will take the initiative in elevating the media cooperation between the two countries. Topping our agenda will be a round-table meeting of the Media Council, a Silk Road-themed joint reporting project and a new episode of our joint project 'Hello, China'. We hope to demonstrate the concrete results of the bilateral40 media cooperation through the multi-media platform."For the past 10 years, CRI has been striving to promote China-Russia cultural exchanges through media cooperation.
It has so far established cooperative partnerships41 with five state-level media outlets in Russia.

Billions Embezzled42 by China's Lottery43 Managers: AuditorsAnchorA new audit44 has revealed some 17 billion yuan, or nearly 3-billion US dollars, raised through China's lottery system has been embezzled or misused45 by lottery managers and retailers46 for close to 3-years until this past October.
CRI's Niu Honglin has the details.
ReporterAccording to the report published by the National Audit Office, the "problematic" money constituted more than a quarter of the lottery funds reviewed in the audit.
Authorities say irregularities included embezzlement47, fraud, illegal subsidies48 for staff, and procurement49 of fancy offices.
Yu Lin, deputy head of the Department of Social Security Audit, details how the offenders50 mishandled the money.
"In order to get money from the lottery fund, some departments even came up with fake welfare investment projects, things such as orphanages51, rehabilitation52 centers, or nursing homes. Some of the money ends up going unused, while some is embezzled, to purchase things like cars. "According to China's Regulations on Lottery Management, the money raised through lotteries53 is divided into three parts: the jackpot for lottery winners, lottery management expenses and fees paid to sales distributors, and funds handed over to the state for social welfare causes.
63 billion yuan worth of unauthorized online lottery sales spanning 17 provinces, where online distributors are paid 20 to 60 percent higher than regular ones by local departments, have been uncovered.
Yu Lin says such unauthorized online lottery selling doesn't follow regulations.
"Under the current managing system, the amount of lottery management expenses and social welfare funds a province or a region get is related to the total lottery sales amount. Online sales break the geographical54 limits, allowing distributors in one province sell tickets to buyers all around the country, as a result obtaining money that should have belonged to other provinces."Wang Xuehong with the Chinese Public Welfare Lottery Study Institution, Pecking University, says a lack of supervision55 is part of the reason why unauthorized online lottery sales' are so rampant56.
"Lottery departments in as many as 17 provinces had been offering direct online channels to their customers, reflecting the country's saggy57 regulation and supervision on the issue. We should have restrained it from the very beginning, but we didn't. So this is part of the reasons for the problem."The audit covered a total of nearly 230 provincial58 and municipal-level lottery sales organizations, and nearly 5000 projects funded by lottery sales.
The NAO says 14.5 billion yuan of misused funds have been recovered, as of the end of May, while authorities are investigating 90 cases of suspected violations59.
China's nationwide lottery sales in 2014 totaled 382 billion yuan, or nearly 62 billion US dollars.

S. Korea passes new law to curb60 MERS outbreakSouth Korean authorities have announced tough new laws designed to try to curb the current MERS outbreak.
Under the new law, people infected with the virus who are found to have lied to investigators61 about how they came into contact with the virus can face fines of close to 20-thousand US dollars and a possible prison sentence of up to 2-years.
The new legislation also restricts the movement of infected people and allows for the closure of contaminated facilities.
Offenders who refuse to follow orders face similar punishments.
The legislation comes as South Korea's government faces criticism for failing to stop the MERS outbreak, which has now become the largest ever outside Saudi Arabia.
Two new fatalities62 have been reported this Friday, bringing the total number of dead to 31.
At the same time, a doctor at the Samsung Medical Center in Seoul has also been confirmed with the virus, bringing the total number of infections in South Korea to 181.
Around half of all infections in South Korea can be traced to the Samsung Facility, which is one of the country's premier63 medical centers.
At the same time, a South Korean man who was undergoing treatment at a Chinese hospital in Guangdong after being diagnosed with MERS late last month has now been released from hospital.
Defying the advice of doctors to stay at home, the 44-year-old flew to Hong Kong on May 26th, a day after his father was diagnosed with MERS in South Korea.
He then entered Huizhou City via Shenzhen and was tested positive for MERS on May 29.
He's the only confirmed MERS case in China.
Europe Agree to take in 60,000 asylum65 seekersThe European Council has come to an agreement to distribute the thousands of migrants that have landed in Italy and Greece this year evenly among member states.
An additional 20-thousand migrants currently living outside the European Union in places such as Turkey will also be allowed in.
But in making the decision, the European Council has decided it will not mandate66 the exact number of migrants each country will have to take.
European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker says the slow pace of making the decision is a sign of concern for the EU.
"The fact we took hours to agree about the system to be set up obviously shows that Europe is not living up to the values it promotes in each and every occasion when it speaks abroad."In making the decision, Hungary and Bulgaria have been deemed as countries with a special status, meaning they will likely have to accept less migrants than other EU member countries.
The anti-immigration Hungarian government has been threatening to shut off its borders, while Bulgaria can't afford to accept an influx67 of migrants at this time.
In making the announcement, the European Union says around 40-thousand migrants currently in Italy and Greece are going to be relocated by the end of 2016.
But at the same time, the European Union is warning any migrants who don't qualify legally to stay in Europe will be repatriated70 back to their country of origin.
This comes amid the massive influx of refugees which have been landing on European shores this year.
Israel blasts Palestinian submissions72 to ICCThe Israeli government is blasting new Palestinian submissions to the International Criminal Court.
The Palestinian Authority has delivered a string of allegations of war crimes to the ICC, the first time since it was granted membership to the ICC earlier this year.
The allegations are connected to last year's conflict in the Gaza Strip.
Emmanuel Nahshon with Israel's Foreign Ministry73 says the move is merely a stunt74 by the Palestinian side in its attempt to gain recognition as a separate country.
"We believe that it's a manipulation, it's an attempt to politicise the work of the ICC by presenting documents which have absolutely nothing to do with the judicial75 work of the ICC and we are certain that the prosecutor76 will perfectly77 understand it and will not accept any of this Palestinian manipulation."At the same time, the Israeli side has accused the Palestinians of war crimes, including directing rocket fire into civilian78 territory.
However, Israel has not made submissions of its complaints, nor can the ICC compel evidence from the Israeli side, as the country is not a member of the International Criminal Court.
The Palestinian submission71 to the ICC appears to be drawing strong support from people living in Palestinian territories.
"We don't only need financial support, we need their full support. So, now that we've taken this step, we hope to continue to pursue it. And people [the Palestinians] also need to be ready to handle the results of this step. That's what we hope from everyone."50 days of fighting between Palestinian forces in the Gaza Strip and Israeli forces left more than 21-hundred Palestinians dead.
Over 70 Israelis, mostly soldiers, were also killed in last year's conflict, which lasted for 50-days.
Possible French beheading; hundreds of civilians79 killed in IS raidsAuthorities in France are reporting a possible terrorist attack in the country's southeast.
Local reports are suggesting a suspect, who is said to be in custody81, may have beheaded someone at a factory in southeastern France.
Initial reports are suggesting it may be an attack by an individual associated with the Islamic State.
Meanwhile, the Islamist militant82 group is being blamed for the deaths of around 150 civilians in the city of Kobane in northern Syria over the past 24 hours.
The group launched its attack on the border community with Turkey on Wednesday in an apparent retaliation83 for losses this past week at the hands of Kurdish forces.
Hollande condemns84 violent French protests against UberFrench President Francois Hollande is condemning85 the rioting which broke out during a taxi driver protest in Paris on Thursday.
Around 3-thousand taxi drivers blocked access to the city's two main airports, protesting Uber.
The protests turned violent, with Taxi drivers setting fire to vehicles and clashing with Uber drivers, blocking access to Charles de Gaulle and Orly airports, as well as preventing cars reaching train stations around the country.
Francois Hollande says the level of protest is unacceptable.
"There is unacceptable violence; unacceptable in a democracy, unacceptable in a country like France; unacceptable even though it's a matter - it is true - that can engender86 anger for those facing unfair competition, especially for taxis, this UberPop group that doesn't respect any rule."But at the same time, Hollande says he wants to see the use of Uber made illegal across Europe.
The service has been illegal in France since January.
However, the ban on Uber has been difficult to enforce, and the ride-sharing app continues to operate in France.
Taxi drivers claim Uber is unfair, as it matches passengers with private drivers at prices lower than those of traditional taxis.
French woman accused of suffocating87 8 newborn babiesA French woman has gone on trial, accused of murdering 8 of her newborn children over the course of decades.
51-year old Dominique Cottrez claims she thought the children were products of a long, incestuous relationship with her father.
However, DNA88 testing later revealed the children were fathered by her husband, rather than her father.
Rodolphe Costantino, a lawyer for a French group which advocates on behalf of children, says this case is still presenting a unique challenge for prosecutors89.
"I think there are two pitfalls90 in this case anyway because, instinctively92 these kind of cases brings two things. Either it is a compassionate93 act so she would be a victim; or on the contrary, an instinctive91 act so we would just have to take into consideration the horror of the crimes she has committed and which make her a monster. I think that between the two, there is a balanced measure to find. That's what we'll try to do during the trial."It's believed the defendant's obesity94 hid the fact she was pregnant from her husband and existing family.
The killing95 of the 8 children has been described as the worst case of infanticide in modern French history.
She faces life in prison if found guilty.
It's expected it may take a week for the courts to render a verdict in the case.
1st Commercially Available Personal Jetpack to Go on Sale in 2016Anchor:
In a page out of the world of "James Bond" books and films from the 1960's, the developer of the world's first personal jetpack says their product is poised97 to go on sale sometime next year.
CRI's Sophie Williams has more.
Reporter:
The Martin Jetpack is to priced at around 200-thousand US dollars.
It's been in development over the last 35-years by then-university student, New Zealander Glenn Martin.
Testing in New Zealand of the initial prototype in 2011 saw a manned jetpack successfully fly a thousand metres off the ground before landing with the help of a parachute.
The upgraded version, the P12, has been made public at this year's now-concluded Paris Airshow.
The Martin Aircraft can fly for more than 30-minutes at up to 74-kilometres per hour.
It can reach altitudes of up to a thousand metres.
It can carry weights of up to 120-kilograms.
Martin Aircraft chief executive Peter Coker is designed with protections to ensure the pilot remains safe in the event something goes wrong.
"This is built around safety from the start. Reliability98 is the most important element of it. We have safety built into the actual structure itself. Very similar to a Formula One racing99 car, and finally what we actually have is a new ballistic parachute that is the basis of recognising the way that we can be as safe as we possibly can. It opens at very low altitude and actually saves both the aircraft and the pilot in an emergency."Part of their promotion100 in Paris this past week included allowing people to use a simulator to experience the feeling of flying your own jetpack.
Coker says it was very popular.
"The idea of having a simulator on the show is really to allow people to experience what the jetpack can actually do. It actually flies the same as the jetpack, so it's an opportunity for members of the public to see what that experience is all about."Liu Ruopeng, who is the chair of Kuang-Chi Science, one of the companies helping101 develop the personal jetpack, says his company's investment is helping build -quote- "a dream".
"Jetpack is the machine that can really allow people to fly freely and allow people to really use the machine to rescue, search, and save people's lives, and it's very non-disruptive. It's not like helicopters, which is very bulky, and it's not like a car, which cannot fly."First deliveries of the first Martin Aircraft jetpack are scheduled for the second-half of next year.

Chinese tourists make record high visits to Thailand in Jan-MayNew stats show Chinese tourists made a record 3.3 million visits to Thailand between January and May this year.
This is one-quarter of all foreign tourists entering the country through the period.
The rise in the number of Chinese tourists is also creating a rise in the number of travel complaints among Chinese tourists, as more and more of them are said to be being targeted by thieves and unscrupulous travel companies.
China's ambassador to Thailand, Ning Fukui, says they're hoping the Thai authorities will do more to try to prevent this.
"Thailand should be taking more active measures to prevent people from being cheated. At the same time, we'd like to see Thai authorities offer better package tours to ensure Chinese tourists can enjoy better services."Thai tourism authorities estimate around 6-million Chinese nationals will visit Thailand this year.
Chinese travel to Thailand has been on the rise in recent years, in part because of cheaper costs, as well as the popularity of the Chinese film "Lost in Thailand," which sparked renewed interest in the country.

Headline newsChina issues report on U.S. human rightsChina has published a report on human rights in the United States.
It was released today by the Information Office of the State Council.
In response to a recent US report which examines the human rights situation in many other countries, the Chinese report says Washington shows no regret for its own human rights record.
It says the United States, while claiming to be a human rights defender104, saw no improvements in its own existing human rights issues, but reported numerous new problems.
The report also says the U.S. violated human rights in other countries in a brazen105 manner, and was given more "red cards" in the international human rights field.

Peru striker Jose Paolo Guerrero notched142 a hat trick to send his team into the semi-finals of the tournament on Thursday with a 3-1 win over Bolivia.
Bolivia converted a penalty to avoid a shutout late in the second half, but it was too little too late, and Peru advanced.
They will next face hosts Chile in the semis.
Peru coach Ricardo Gareca on the upcoming clash:
"Chile is a team that you deserve maximum attention and focus during the 90 minutes. These are opponents that take you to that level. We will have time to analyse them. But, as I said, every game we have to improve."This is Peru's second-straight Copa America semi-final showing.
The National Basketball Association 2015 draft has come to a close.
Former Guangdong Southern Tigers guard Emmanuel Mudiay was the seventh pick of the new class, being tapped by the Denver Nuggets.
When asked if his time in the Chinese Basketball Association helped with his game, Mudiay says this:
"Definitely. You're out there playing with grown men. You're out there playing with a shot clock and basically NBA rules. That's really what it is. The only thing is the three-second rule probably is the only thing that's different about the China League, CBA League. But as far as playing with grown men, the physicality over there is ridiculous; it's like playoff basketball. So that's one thing that really helped me, and I feel like I do have an advantage coming in and playing a professional type of basketball thing already."Minnesota got the first pick and predictably chose center Karl-Anthony Towns, who helped Kentucky get to this year's final four on a 38-game win streak144.
Point guard D'Angelo Russell followed Towns to the stage, as he was selected second overall by the Los Angeles Lakers.
Choosing third was the Philadelphia 76ers and they selected Jahlil Okafor, a 6-foot-11, 270-pound center from the national champion Duke Blue Devils.
The first European player picked in the draft came up next, as the New York Knicks selected Latvian forward Kristaps Porzingis.
Croatia's Mario Hezonja rounded out the top five, as the forward was selected by the Orlando Magic.
Satnam Singh made history as the first Indian-born player to enter the NBA, after he was chosen by the Dallas Mavericks145 as the 52nd pick in the 2nd round of the draft.
