TopEnvoy: China Needs to Continue Diplomatic Mission in SomaliaA Chinese envoy on African affairs has said that there are actual needs for China to continue its diplomatic mission in Somalia despite the restive situation in the country.
Ambassador Liu Guijin made the remarks after Sunday's blast at a hotel in Mogadishu left at least 15 people dead, including a Chinese national.
"Somalia is in great need of reconstruction5 following more than 20 years of conflict. China used to have a sound relationship with the country. The Somali government has expressed hope that China can resume those Chinese-aided projects launched before the war, when conditions are right. There are always risks, but in terms of the development of bilateral6 ties, the needs for us to stay are real."The international community has strongly condemned7 the suicide attack.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry9 says it will pay close attention to the situation in Somalia following the suicide bombing and step up security accordingly.
Measures are also being worked out to protect the safety and interests of Chinese organizations and people in Somalia.
Meanwhile, according to a Somali intelligence officer, a German of Somali origin is suspected to have been the suicide bomber11 of the attack. The male bomber was believed to be from the city of Bonn.

Beijing Bid Team Makes Final Push ahead of IOC VoteThe International Olympic Committee's executive board meetings have started in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Two of China's most celebrated13 figure skaters Zhao Hongbo and Shen Xue, who are also the Beijing bid's ambassadors, are trying to convince the IOC that Beijng should be given hosting rights of 2022 Winter Olympic Games.
Zhao Hongbo says being able to host the 2022 Games will demonstrate the consistent development of winter sports in China.
"We attended four Olympic games in various cities when we were athletes, including Nagano, Salt Lake City, Turin in Italy and Ottawa in Canada. We have experience the proudness of the host cities to open their arms and welcome the athletes from all over the world. To be able to host the 2022 Games, it will demonstrate the consistent development of the winter sports in our country, we are really all looking forward to it."The couple also faced some tough questions about air pollution and a lack of snow.
Shen Xue says efforts should be made to reduce air pollution no matter Beijing can win the bid or not.
"I think we should improve the air quality not just for the bid of the 2022 Games, this is a fundamental request of our regular Chinese people. So no matter we can win the bid or not for the Games, we should make effort to reduce the air pollution and improve the quality of the environment as this is the basic need of our people. "The gold medalist pairs came out of retirement14 to win gold at Vancouver in 2010, then retired15 again.
The final vote will be held on July 31 to determine which city will host the 2022 Winter Games, Beijing or Almaty, Kazakhstan.
South Korea declares end to Mers epidemicAnchor:
South Korea's Prime Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn has declared a "de facto end" to the outbreak of the Middle East Respiratory Sysdrome.
He also apologized for the government's slow response during the initial stages of the outbreak.
Cri's Poornima Weerasekara reports.
Reporter:
The announcement by South Korea's Prime Minister Hwang Kyo-ahn declaring an end to the Mers outbreak in the country comes more than two months after the first case was reported,when a South Korean man who had visited Saudi Arabia, returned after being infected.
Twelve people remain hospitalised receiving treatment for MERS, but only one of them is still testing positive for the virus.
But Hwang says there had been no new infections for 23 days.
"Considering various situations such as the concentrated surveillance on 15 hospitals were all lifted, no new patients were diagnosed with MERS for 23 straight days and the last person under quarantine was released, the government and health workers appraised17 that the nation should start to feel safe (from MERS)."The South Korean government has been heavily criticized for its slow initial response that allowed the crisis to snowball into the largest Mers outbreak outside Saudi Arabia, killing18 36 people and infecting 186 in total.
At its peak nearly 17,000 people were in quarantine after evidence emerged that lax policies at a few top medical institutions had exposed hundreds of patients to the virus.
The Prime Minister apologized for the government's initial failure to enforce quarantine procedures. He promised that the government would implement19 reforms to fix the shortcomings in the country's health care system that came to light during the crisis.
But Hwang says South Koreans should now focus on getting back to their normal lives that had been disrupted.
"Now South Korean people should be relieved from their anxiety of MERS and normalise their cultural and leisure activities and return to their daily routines such as schools (opening)."Thousands of schools were closed and all outdoor gathering20 and cultural events were canceled.
The outbreak dealt a major blow to South Korea's economy, knocking second-quarter growth to its worst in more than six years.
Tourism numbers dropped by 40 percent and South Korea is now eager to repair lingering negative perceptions.
Last week, the South Korean government approved a 9.8 billion dollar stimulus21 package to help the struggling economy.
Some experts see today's announcement by the South Korean government as a hasty step taken to prevent the country's economy from bleeding any further.
The World Health Organisation22 says it is not ready to declare an end to Mers in South Korea.
The WHO says it needs 28 days without a new infection - twice the incubation period of the virus – before it will make the announcement.
The first case of Mers emerged in the Middle East in 2012. The virus is linked to the same family of coronaviruses that triggered the deadly outbreak of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome23 (SARS) in 2003.
Despite today's announcement that South Korea is now rid of Mers, the public health system would continue to be on high alert.

Pyongyang is not interested in dialogue to unilaterally freezing or giving up nukesNorth Korea's Ambassador to China says Pyongyang is not interested in dialogue to give up its nuclear ambitions.
Ji Jae Ryong made the comments during a news conference held at the North Korean Embassy in Beijing on Tuesday.
The comments come just one day after U.S. envoy for six-party talks Sydney Seiler suggested the recent deal with Iran could set an example for solving North Korea's nuclear issue.
But Ji said North Korea's situation could not be compared with that of Iran's.
"The situation of North Korea is totally different to Iran. We are a nuclear state, both in name and reality. As a nuclear state, we have our own interests in a nuclear program."North Korea has conducted three nuclear tests and called itself a nuclear weapons state.
The United States and five world powers reached a historic deal with Iran earlier this month that will limit Iran's nuclear capabilities25 in exchange for lifting sanctions from the US, EU and UN.
North Korea is also sanctioned by the three parties for procuring26 equipment related to its nuclear and ballistic missile programs.
Talk To Be Held for Greece's Third BailoutTechnical experts from Greece's international creditors27 are now in Athens now for talks that will pave the way for the country's third bailout.
Greece's deputy finance minister Dimitris Mardas says his office is ready to provide support to the team.
"As you know, we are the support office to the negotiating team. We are following the developments and we will give the information that they need on how to best go with the process."After passing two packages of measures through parliament, Greece is now on course to begin talking to the European Commission, the ECB and the IMF, as well as the euro zone's rescue fund and the European Stability Mechanism29 (ESM) for a three-year-loan worth up to 86 billion euros to keep Greece in the euro zone.
The talks are designed to clear the path for high-level talks between Greek ministers, senior European Union and International Monetary30 Fund officials later this week.
They will be focused on issues like pensions and labour market reforms.
Expert: Obstacles Remains31 for TPP DealPacific Rim16 officials are set to meet in Hawaii for talks that could make or break the Trans-Pacific Partnership32 deal.
The meeting is to run from today to Friday on the island of Maui, with high hopes of a pact33 to conclude the TPP negotiations35.
But experts are warning that the toughest issues have been left until last.
Joshua Meltzer, with the Brookings Institution, says the United States and Japan are facing political challenges going into the talks.
"The United States has got some particular demands on strengthening intellectual property rights. But at the same time, in order to achieve that, it's going to have to be prepared to provide new market access opportunities into sectors37 in the U.S. economy that have traditionally been fairly closed. For Japan the focus has been on removing a range of barriers to exports, particularly of a range of agricultural products as well as for automobiles38."Failure to agree this week will endanger an already tight timeline to get a deal through the divided U.S. Congress this year, before the 2016 presidential campaign dominates the stateside agenda.
A six-week battle over U.S. legislation to streamline39 the passage of trade deals through Congress finally ended in late June, sparking a rush of negotiations to ready ministers to take the tough decisions needed to wrap up the talks.
Thailand Continues Working to Solve Human Trafficking: Thai PMThai Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha says that Thailand will continue its work on tackling human trafficking.
The statement comes on the heels of the U.S. State Department's annual Trafficking in Persons report has kept the country on its lowest rank for a second year.
Prayuth says Thailand is working to solve the situation step by step.
"We will continue to do whatever work we have to. This is the matter of following international rules. There were a lot of problems in the past which we are solving step by step; to amend41 the laws, continue to monitor operational practices by authorities and (carrying out) punishments against authorities (involved)."The annual report comes days after Thailand indicted42 72 people, including fifteen state officials, over suspected links to human trafficking.
Their arrests comes as a result of what Thai police called their biggest-ever investigation43 into human trafficking.
India's Former President DiesIt's being reported that former Indian president Abdul Kalam, died on Monday at the age of 83.
Kalam died from cardiac arrest in a hospital in the north-eastern city of Shillong, capital of Meghalaya state.
Indian Finance Minister Arun Jaitley says the country lost one of its most inspirational people.
"Dr. Kalam was not merely the President but he was to every Indian a role model and an ideal citizen. Everything about him was positive. He thought well, he had positive ideas, his contribution as a scientist, his contribution as a president was unparalleled. He has left a void for all of us."Kalam was considered the father of India's missile programme.
He served as the country's 11th president, from 2002 to 2007.
He became a national folk hero after helping46 oversee47 nuclear tests in 1998 that solidified48 India's status as a nuclear weapons state.
Libyan court sentences Gaddfi's son Seif to deathA Libyan court has sentenced to death Seif al-Islam Gaddafi, son of the former leader Muammar Gaddafi.
The court also ordered eight other senior figures of the former regime put to death on the same day.
Some local media called the ruling controversial, saying the court was under pressure of Islamist forces.
Libya's Ministry of Justice earlier denounced the trials set by the court on Seif, as well as 37 other of Gaddafi's former close officials.
But Justice Minister Al-Mabruk Ghraira Omran called on the international community not to accept the verdicts.
China's FTZs Develop Well on TrackAnchor:
China's four free trade zones have seen rapid development since being established.
As CRI's Luo Wen reports, thousands of enterprises have registered in these pilot zones that boast streamlined services and preferential policies.
Reporter:
In April, China approved the expansion of the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone and the setup of three similar zones in Guangdong, Fujian and Tianjin.
At a recent press conference, Lv Jinzhou with Tianjin Airport Economic Zone spoke highly of the FTZ's role in helping attract foreign enterprises.
"After establishment, the Tianjin FTZ has signed agreements with Airbus on the building of an A330 completion and delivery center and with Bombardier over the setting up of a maintenance plant. Currently, a series of new agreements are under negotiation34."Lv Jinzhou says the attraction of FTZ is mainly rooted in innovative50 policies and a sound business environment.
As of the end of June, China's central authorities and the governments in Shanghai, Tianjin, Fujian and Guangzhou have enacted51 around 100 policies to bolster52 the development of these zones.
Meanwhile, the number of items included in the negative list for investment in these places has been further reduced from 139 to 122.
Vice49 Commerce Minister Wang Shouwen says the way the FTZs operate and their efforts to improve business environment have been recognized by investors53.
"Free Trade Zones are expected to lead the country's opening-up move and become a 'test field' for new reform measures. Policies already adopted in FTZs aiming to push forward with opening-up in more sectors have attracted enterprises from both here at home and abroad."Official figures show that about 20-thousand companies registered in the FTZs in Guangdong, Tianjin and Fujian between April and June, while in the Shanghai FTZ, the first of the kind that opened around two years ago, 21 thousand firms were set up in the first half of this year.
Tang Wenhong from the foreign investment department of the commerce ministry says great efforts have been made to streamline services and simplify administrative54 approval procedures at the FTZs.
He adds that besides the efforts to facilitate investment, the four FTZs have also made remarkable55 progress in financial innovation.
"Shanghai has accelerated the compiling of a plan for building itself into an international financial hub and expanding cross-border use of the RMB. In the first five months of this year, cross-border RMB settlement in the city exceeded 140 billion yuan, or 23 billion US dollars, accounting56 for over 26 percent of the city's overall settlements, while the cross-straits RMB settlements in the Fujian FTZ will reach 36 billion yuan very soon."According to a master plan issued by the State Council, China's cabinet, the four zones will develop in specific directions.
The Guangdong FTZ is required to help widen the cooperation between the mainland, Hong Kong and Macao and the Tianjin FTZ should boost the integration57 of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
The Fujian FTZ is asked to pilot programs for deepening cross-straits cooperation, while the Shanghai FTZ is tasked with exploring new horizons for the country's opening-up and reform.

Early Prevention A Key in China's Fight Against HepatitisAnchor:
The World Health Organization (WHO) is marking the fifth annual World Hepatitis Day today, with the theme "Prevent Hepatitis. Act Now".
As CRI's Victor Ning reports, events in China and around the world will raise awareness58 and understanding of viral hepatitis.
Reporter:
In China, an estimated 90 million people carry the Hepatitis B virus, while 28 million of them suffer from the disease chronically59. Most patients were infected with the virus during childhood. In line with the theme of this year's World Hepatitis Day, Lei Zhenglong, Deputy Director of China's Center for Disease Control, says early prevention and vaccinations61 are priorities in the country's fight against the disease.
"We believe Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B vaccinations are the most economic and effective ways to prevent the diseases. We need to maintain a high vaccination60 coverage62 rate to ensure a strong public immunity63 barrier."China expanded its immunization programs to include Hepatitis B vaccinations in 2002, providing free shots for all new-born babies. Since then, about 200 million children have received the vaccinations, bringing the coverage rate to 95%. Statistics show that the infection rate of the disease among Chinese children has dropped significantly since the measure took effect.
Many newborns in China are infected by their mothers who carry the Hepatitis B virus. China began addressing the issue in 2010 by offering these babies injections of hepatitis B immune globulin, in addition to the regular vaccinations. This added measure has been shown to prevent 97% of babies born to infected mothers from contracting the virus.
In recent years, severe side effects and even deaths brought on by Hepatitus B vaccinations in China have caused some worries about the safety of the preventative measure. Addressing these concerns, Wang Huaqing, Deputy Director of the National Immunization Program at China's Center for Disease Control and Prevention, says the public needs not to worry about the safety of the vaccinations.
" We have been monitoring the side effects of the Hepatitis B vaccinations since 2005. Most negative effects were due to hypersensitivity in individual cases. Occurrences of anaphylactic shocks are extremely low, less than the rate of one in a million. Both global and our national monitoring results show that Hepatitis B vaccination is among the safest of all available vaccinations."The upcoming World Hepatitis Day will be marked in China with free seminars, testing clinics and other events hosted by health institutions across the country. According to the World Hepatitis Alliance, co-coordinator of the World Hepatitis Day with the WHO, 157 countries participated in the event in 2014. The date of 28 July was chosen to honor the birthday of Nobel Laureate Professor Baruch Samuel Blumberg, who discovered the hepatitis B virus.

CIRC Issues New Guideline to Regulate Internet Insurance BusinessAnchor:
The China Insurance Regulatory Commission, the country's insurance watchdog, has issued a guideline to regulate the internet insurance business.
CRI's Yu Yang reports.
Reporter:
The new guideline clearly defines the qualification and regulations of the internet insurance businesses.
Dean of School of Insurance with Central University of Fiance and Economics Hao Yansu says rules need to be set up to regulate the new business.
"Currently, there are over 80 insurance companies in China. Most of them have their own online platforms to sell products. There are also a few independent online insurance companies. As more and more insurance companies launch their websites, more social capital will enter the internet insurance business. Thus rules need to be set up to ensure the effective operation of this business."According to the guideline, only legally registered insurance companies and professional insurance agencies can sell products online.
Customers are expected to transfer money directly to a certain account designated by the insurance institute. Third party payment platforms are not allowed to be involved in this process.
Hao Yansu says setting up the entrance threshold means that the "disorderly growth" of internet insurance would be prevented.
"The financial industry needs to be strictly98 regulated. Those intermediary agencies which are not filed with the supervision99 department are not allowed to sell insurance products. A special license100 is required."The guideline also requires that insurance institutes should present information about insurance products and services in clear and understandable language on the internet platform.
Professor of insurance policy at Beijing Technology and Business University Wang Jinxu says the regulation aims to protect consumers' legal rights.
"Whether consumers are informed of real conditions or not remains a problem for insurance products sold online. These regulations are greatly needed to avoid disputes."The regulation is set to come into effect this October.
Statistics show that the revenue of internet insurance stood at around 86 billion yuan in 2014, a growth of 195% compared to 2013.

Central bank to maintain policy despite inflation fearsChina's central bank said it will maintain prudent101 monetary policy in the second half of this year.

Pork accounts for 2.9 percent of the consumer price index.
CPI rose only 1.3 percent in the first half of the year.
Dismissing the concerns, the central bank said the consumer price has steadied at a low level and the outlook is stable.

Boston pulls out of bidding to host 2024 OlympicsAnchor:
The U.S. Olympic Committee has nixed Boston's bid to host the 2024 Summer Olympics, just hours after Mayor Martin Walsh said he would not "commit" to a deal that makes city taxpayers116 vulnerable to the costs of hosting such a large-scale event.
CRI's Luo Bin reports.
Reporter:
Boston's bid to host the 2024 Olympics is officially over, after the city and the U.S. Olympic Committee severed117 ties after a board teleconference on Monday.
The bid soured within days of its beginning in January and failed to get - and keep - the support of key Boston politicians.
Boston Mayor Marty Walsh says he would not be pressured into signing the contract that puts the city on the hook for any cost overruns.
"This is a commitment that I cannot make without assurances that Boston and it's residents will be protected. I refuse to mortgage the future of the city away. I refuse to put Boston on the hook for over-runs and I refuse to commit to signing a guarantee that uses tax payers' dollars to pay for the Olympics."No Boston Olympics Co-Chairman Chris Dempsey led the citizen's charge to kill the bid.
"Well it's certainly hard when you're dealing118 with a bid that requires building the three most expensive Olympic venues110 from scratch. And Boston's 2024 plan was always a costly119 bid, that required a lot of building of sporting infrastructure120."There are only seven weeks left before the cities have to be officially nominated.
The decision has thrown the bid process - and hopes that the USA will host another Olympics - into doubt.
However, the US Olympic Committee says the federation121 wants to stay in the race. Los Angeles has been touted122 as the likely alternative host city.
