Top NewsFlaperon Officially Identified as from Boeing 777: Malaysian MinisterAnchor:
Malaysian authorities say they've confirmed a piece of airliner4 debris found on Reunion Island, east of Madagascar, is part of a Boeing 777.
This is the same aircraft used on missing flight MH370, which disappeared last year.
CRI's Luo Wen reports.
Reporter:
Malaysian Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai says French authorities, together with aircraft maker5 Boeing, the US National Transportation Safety Board and a Malaysian team are looking into whether the debris, known as a flaperon, belongs to MH370.
If the serial6 number on the flaperon confirms that it is from Flight MH370, it would represent the first physical evidence the plane went down somewhere in the Indian Ocean.
The debris may also be able to provide some indication as to what exactly happened to the flight itself.
Using sophisticated tools, investigators7 will be able to analyze8 the flaperon to try to glean9 more information about the causes of the crash, such as whether its shape corresponds more to a mid-air explosion or a crash into the ocean.
Meanwhile, more metal debris, including what might be an airline hatch, have also been found washed up on Reunion Island.
French authorities, which administer the small island, say its too early to determine what the new debris is.
Questions have been raised about how debris from MH370 could make it all the way to Reunion Island, which is roughly 4-thousand kilometers away from where searchers believe the plane went down on March 8th of last year.
However, Zhang Wei with China Academy of Civil Aviation Science and Technology, says there is a good chance the materials found washed up on Reunion are from MH370.
"In theory, all of the debris from crashed planes can be recovered. The only factor is time itself. The movement of ocean currents follows along certain known principles. The currents flowing in the Indian Ocean could take parts of MH370 along them, eventually washing them up on the island."Some have been suggesting a detailed10 search around Reunion Island should be conducted.
However, Zhang Wei notes the Malaysia Airlines flight didn't have enough fuel to make it anywhere near Reunion Island.
The Malaysian government has sent several teams to Reunion to search for more debris and to assist in the investigation11 in France.
Malaysia's goverment is also asking for help from aviation authorities in the vicinity of Reunion in the hope of finding more clues to the missing aircraft.
Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 disappeared while on March 8th of last year shortly after taking off on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on-board.
Two thirds of the passengers were Chinese nationals.
Investigators say they believe someone onboard shut off all the plane's external communication devices and identification equiptment, then directed the flight into the southern Indian ocean off the west coast of Australia.
Malaysian authorities have refused to say who they suspect may have done this, but have cleared any of the passengers from suspicion.
This has focused most speculation14 around either the pilot or co-pilot of the flight as being responsible for the flight's disappearance15, as only someone with intimate knowledge of a Boeing 777 could have turned off the flight's transponders.

China plans expanded serious illness insuranceThe Chinese government has confirmed its working on plans to try to expand the serious illness insurance plan to cover more people in the country.
The State Council has issued a statement, saying the insurance should be able to benefit all urban and rural residents covered under the basic health insurance program by the end of this year.
Serious illness insurance in China has so far been used only on a trial basis.
The idea is to prevent people from being dragged into poverty because of medical costs associated with emergency procedures.
Right now the current scheme covers around 700-million people, which is around half of China's population.
Escalator safety major issue in ChinaAnchor:
There are growing concerns in China about the safety of both escallators and elevators in this country following a pair of recent accidents which left two women dead.
CRI's Min Rui has more.
Reporter:
The latest fatal elevator accident took place a week ago on a cargo18 lift in the province of Jiangsu.
A young woman was killed after she suddenly became stuck in the gap between the lift and the platform.
The preliminary investigation suggests she was killed after the elevator's brakes failed.
Chen Danjian is one of the investigators from the city of Hangzhou who is looking into what happened.
"The elevator failed to stop and dragged the victim along with it as it went up. Our preliminary assessment19 is the accident may have been caused by brake failure. As for the cause of the failure, we will still need to identify it using technical analysis before coming to a full conclusion."This was the 2nd accident involving people-moving devices in China this past month.
On July 26th, just a day before the elevator accident in Wuxi, a woman was killed after falling into a gap at the top of an escallator at a shopping mall in the city of Jingzhou in Hubei.
Security camera video, which found its way online, shows the 31-year-old woman briefly20 clinging to the edge of the gap while holding her young son out to be rescued by a mall staff member.
The child was pulled to safety.
However, his mother was later found dead under the escalator.
The two incidents have created a new wave of concerns about escalator and elevator safety in China.
Stats from the China Elevator Association show more than half of all accidents involving elevators and escalators are connected to maintenance and repair neglect.
Zhang Huaiji, an engineer with the Shenzhen Institute of Special Equipment Inspection21 and Testing, notes many of the elevators put into service after 2003 are reaching the end of their service life.
At the same time, he says the growing number of escalators and elevators being put into service in China is creating too heavy a workload22 for the limited number of inspectors23 available.
"There are too many elevators. Shortages of professional staff are very severe in some places. A technician sometimes has to double or triple his workload to keep up."The heavy workloads24 and low wages have also begun affecting retention25 rates for elevator maintenance technicians, putting their numbers here in China below international standards.
China's rapid urbanization over the past decade has seen the number of elevators and escalators put into service increase by a rate of around 20-percent a year.
Official analysis from China's State Administration of Quality Supervision26, Inspection and Quarantine show there are currently around 150-thousand elevators and escalators currently in-service which are over 15-years old.
Around 5 in every 100 elevators or escalators inspected in China are found to have some type of problem.

World's longest rail route boosts trade between China and EuropeAnchor:.
Observers on both sides of the world's longest rail route are moving to defend the costs associated with sending shipments from eastern China to Spain's capital, Madrid.
Cri's Poornima Weerasekara has more.
Reporter:
The longest rail link in the world, dubbed27 the "silk road express," connects the industrial hub of Yiwu on the East coast of China with the Spanish capital Madrid.
The link, first established late last year, is part of the Chinese government’s plans to create a "21st century Silk Road" and boost trade with both Central Asia and Europe.
The first direct freight train from China to Madrid carrying Christmas paraphernalia28 arrived in December.
Since then, there have been three more round trips from Yiwu to Madrid.
The journey, spanning over 8-thousand miles cuts across eight different countries, which has created logistical issues, as the cargo has to be moved on to different trains three different times along the route because of incompatible30 rail gauges31 in different countries.
Still, Analyist Mario Esteban with the Elcano Royal Institute, a Spanish think-tank, says sending material along the line still poses fewer security risks than using sea routes.
"Most of the trade between China and Europe goes by the sea because is cheaper, even though it takes a bit more of time. What's the problem? This long sea route passes by very sensitive strategic areas, such as strait of Malacca or the Gulf32 of Aden."Another issue is cost.
Sending goods on the route costs around 5-thousand US dollars per container, which is more expensive than shipping33 by sea.
Still, Zhang Ruizhi, a top manager at a Chinese Import-Export firm, says sending non-perishables by train still makes economic sense.
"The time it takes to ship is much faster than traditional sea shipping. The train takes approximately 18-21 days. Compared with sea shipping, it's about twice the speed of shipping by sea. Although it's longer than air transport, but the cost of shipping by train is far more economical. As a result we chose to import our goods by train."It is also more environmentally friendly than road transport, which would produce 114 tonnes of CO2 to shift the same volume of goods, compared with the 44 tonnes produced by the train – a 62% reduction according to analysts35.
The rail link connecting China to Spain is one of several rail connections between China and Europe.
Another route runs between Chongqing and the German trading hub of Duisburg five times a week.
There is also a rail link between Beijing and Germany's second largest city, Hamburg, which has cut down transportation times to just 20 days.
China is the European Union's biggest source for imports, and is China's largest trading partner.
The Chinese government plans to invest billions of dollars more in the future through the Asian Infrastructure36 Investment Bank to create more infrastructure projects through Central Asia.
For Cri I'm Poornima WeerasekaraFormer Peacekeeper Recalls Tough Days in HaitiAnchor:
Today we bring you our third in a series of reports about the Chinese military's involvement in UN peacekeeping missions.
In this edition, CRI caught up with a female officer who served two different tours in Haiti, which has played host to the largest number of Chinese peacekeepers since China began sending its troops out under the United Nations banner.
CRI's Xie Cheng has more.
Reporter:
Peng Xiaoliang has served twice as a duty officer for the police unit attached to the Chinese peacekeeping missions in Haiti. Her team was responsible for curbing37 crime, protecting human rights and rebuilding local law enforcement capabilities38.
Tough already, but they were also caught in a devastating39 earthquake in 2010, during her second deployment40 in the country. More than 300-thousand people were killed, including 102 UN staffers. Eight of them were Peng Xiaoliang's fellow officers in the Chinese team.
Five years have passed. The memory of the disaster is still fresh in mind"The earthquake brought more work. Under the pressure of exhaustion41 and sadness of losing friends, I felt I was pushed to an extreme both physically42 and emotionally. When I saw the corpses43 of my colleagues being sent back home, I fainted."After the quake, Peng Xiaoliang and her team lived and worked in makeshift tents for over four months. They worked day and night with other international aid agencies and the local government to rebuild Haiti.
Peng Xiaoliang says this experience has taught her lifelong lessons.
When she was first deployed44 in Haiti from December 2007 to August 2008 her team had to face one of the fiercest riots in the country's recent history.
In April 2008, a protest over hunger and rising food prices broke out in the southern countryside in Les Cayes and soon the unrest engulfed45 the whole nation, including the capital, where officer Peng Xiaoliang and her team was stationed. It was the most dangerous accident she encountered during this mission.
"Our military barrack in Port-au-Prince was assaulted by groups of rioters. One of the duty posts was hit by a volley of bullets. Even the bullet-proof glass protecting the post had cracked with two bullet holes in it. To be honest, I was very worried and frightened as most of the anti-riot police forces were in Les Cayes."But the team, along with other UN peacekeeping forces, was able to bring the situation under control within 10 days without sustaining any casualties themselves.
Officer Peng now serves as the deputy director of the Frontier Inspection Station in south China's Foshan city. She says her peacekeeping experience helps her serve better in her current post.
"The Peacekeeping experience has helped me understand my own abilities and it reminds me to serve the people at all times. Wherever we are, we need to stick to ethical46 standards."The Chinese police force wrapped up its peacekeeping missions in Haiti in 2010. But several Chinese police teams are still deployed in other parts of the world to maintain stability.
This year, China sent its first police team to Cyprus, expanding its commitment to UN the peacekeeping mission there.
Since China first sent its police unit to East Timor in 2002, a total of 2138 police officers have been deployed in nine missions over the past 15 years.

John Kerry restarts the dialogue with Egyptian officialsU.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has begun talks with Egyptian officials as part of his current trip to the country.
His trip is focused mostly on securing supportin the region for the continued fight against the Islamic State.
Speaking in Cairo, Kerry says keeping young people from embracing extremist ideologies48 is one of their goals.
"We all know that defeating terrorism requires a long term strategy. Border security and law enforcement actions are a significant part of the equation. But even the larger imperative49 is to persuade and prevent young people from turning to terror in the first place."Kerry's time in the region is also meant to try to ease regional concerns over the Iranian nuclear deal.
The US Secretary of State is due to meet with the Gulf Cooperation Council in Doha later on this Monday for security talks.
Iran can boost oil output days after sanctions lifted: ministerIran's oil minister says his country will be able to increase its crude oil output almost immediately after international sanctions are lifted under the new nuclear accord signed last month.
Bijan Zanganeh says Iran wants to reclaim50 its reputation as a leader in the global crude oil market.
"We predict that by late November or early December we can see all the sanctions lifted, God willing. The first thing to do will be to reclaim the markets and the market share we lost which amounted to one million barrels per day as far as crude oil was concerned."Zanganeh says they believe they can increase production significantly once the sanctions end.
Reports are suggesting oil producers such as BP and Shell have expressed interest in developing Iran's reserves once the sanctions are removed.
Iran is home to the world's fourth-largest oil reserves and had the second-biggest output in OPEC before U.S.-led sanctions began July 2012.
It's still the third-largest producer in OPEC, with an estimated daily output of 2.8 million barrels in July.
Canadian PM triggers election campaign with vote in OctIt appears Canada is heading toward a federal election on October 19th.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper is moving to disolve parliment, which will kick off an 11-week campaign.
The state of Canada's economy is expected to be one of the main issues, as growth has been slowing, particularly in resource-dependent provinces.
However, Harper's Conservatives are also expected to try to make national security one of the central issues in the election.
"This election is also about security, not merely our security against the normal risks of criminal behaviour, but our security against the growing threats of an increasingly dangerous world."Harper's Conservatives have been in-power since 2006, and won a surprise majority in the Canadian parliament last election.
However, the current polling is suggesting the Conservatives may lose their majority, forcing the party into a minority government scenario51.
UK Labor52 Laws to Blame for Migrant Crisis: Former French MinisterA former French minister is blaming the UK for the growing number of migrants gathered in the port city of Calais.
Ex-employment minister Xavier Bertand says the UK needs to change its labor laws if it hopes to resolve the issue.
"They want to go to England. Why? To find a job because they know it is possible to work without identity card in England. You have to change your policy."It's estimated around 5-thousand migrants are now camped in Calais around the mouth of the Eurotunnel.
They've been attempting to used the Channel Tunnel as a route into the UK.
Around 200 of them have managed to break through several security layers in Calais.
Most have been stopped by French police.
The migrants have been attempting to hop12 trains or trucks through the tunnel to make it into England.
Close to 10 have been killed in recent weeks.
The UK government has pledged extra guards, police reinforcement and better fencing to help ramp54 up security.
The government is also making an attempt to break the perception that UK streets are -quote- "paved with gold."Second American accused of hunting lion in ZimbabweZimbabwe is accusing another American doctor of illegally killing55 a lion in April.
This follows on the heels of a Minnesota dentist killing a famous lion in Zimbabwe in early July.
Authorities in Zimbabwe are looking into reports a doctor from Pennsylvania may have also shot and killed another lion with a bow and arrow near Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park without approval.
Prince Mupazviriho with Zimbabwe's Ministry56 of Environment, Water and Climate says they've suspended safari's in the region as a result.
"We have banned every activity so that we can investigate and establish the truth of the matter. But as of now our law enforcement officers are looking into the matter so that we can really understand what transpired57 and if what ever happened in April was illegally done."Under the law in Zimbabwe, it's illegal to bow hunt for lions without prior approval.
Zimbabwean authorities are currently seeking the extradition58 of a Minnesota dentist who is accused of killing a famed lion named 'Cecil' a month ago.
Two Zimbabwean nationals are currently facing charges connected to that case.
Palmer has insisted he relied on his professional guides to ensure his hunt was legal.
Controversial Egg-freezing Gains Rising Attention in ChinaAnchor:
A controversial new technology is said to be bringing new hope to the growing number of women in China who miss out on the optimal59 age to conceive a child.
However, some gynecologists say the new process is not as optimal as some had hoped.
CRI's Qi Zhi reports.
Reporter:
Oocyte cryopreservation, or egg freezing, is a procedure where a woman's ovum are removed, frozen and placed in long-term storage.
When the woman is ready to become pregnant, the eggs can be thawed60, fertilized61 and transferred into her uterus.
The technology is gaining increasing popularity in China, which is seeing a growing number of women, known in Mandarin62 as "Shengnv," choose instead to focus on their careers and put off starting a family until after the age of 27.
Qiao Jie is the head of Peking University Third Hospital that is leading the egg-freezing research in the country.
"There is no official stats on how many babies are born through the procedure in China every year, but the number is gradually increasing. We have conducted more operations every year than before and the total number in hospital has exceeded 300."The technology has been gaining increased attention after popular Chinese actress Xu Jinglei made public that she's had some of her eggs frozen.
But while she's decided63 to consider that option for a later-life pregnancy64, the procedure still has its skeptics among women in China.
"I may choose it if necessary. The quality of eggs will decline as age grows. So I would undergo the operation for the sake of my child's health.""I don't think it's a reliable way. There is no doubt that the natural fertilization is much better."Rumours65 have been circulating in China that undergoing he procedure may bring on early menopause.
However, she notes the success rate of the operation is less than 30-percent.
She also says patients who want to undergo the procedure do it as early as possible.
"The success rate depends heavily on the quality of oocyte. The quality of oocyte varies a lot according to one's age. Generally speaking, the younger, the better."There are also questions about the potential health of a child born through a frozen embryo67.
Doctor Qiao says they've yet to find any proof that this could be a concern.
However, she notes the procedure is still in its early stages in China.
"It seems safe at present. But the technology is still young and has only been applied68 to a limited number of people. We need more time to observe the side effects of the procedure."Since its development some 30-years ago, around 24-hundred children have been born via this procedure around the globe.
China's first frozen-egg birth took place 11-years ago.
Under the current rules in China, both single and married women can have their eggs frozen.
However, only married women with the proper birth permits are allowed to use the eggs.

Shaolin abbot cancels Thai visit over investigationThe abbot of the Shaolin Temple has canceled an appearance at a buddhist69 event in Thailand this weekend amid an investigation into a series of allegations against him.
The 50-year-old Shi Yongxin has sent a note to organizers of a buddhist conference currently taking place in Thailand, saying he had to skip the start of the 6-day event to deal with "unexpected official duties".
It's being reported Shi Yongxin is staying at the temple because of an investigation by the religious affairs bureau in Henan.
A former Shaolin monk70 has alleged71 Shi Yongxin has used fake ID, kept lovers, had child and pocketed temple assets.
It's also being claimed Shi Yongxin had once been kicked out of Shaolin back in the 1980's after plundering72 cultural relics73 and organizing a mafia-type gang.
Police have launched an official investigation.
Shi Yongxin, beyond being the abbot of the Shaolin Temple, is also a deputy to the National People's Congress, China's top legislature.
World's Biggest Radio Telescope to Help Better Study UniverseHoisting and matching work for the world's largest radio telescope has begun in Guizhou.
Scientists hope to use the 500-meter wide telescope to get a better understanding of the physical properties found in space.
Li Di, deputy chief engineer of the telescope, says they hope to use it to better observe pulsars.
"The pulsars are very unique compact substances with extremely strong magnetic fields. You can't really understand them on Earth. As such, our new telescope should help give us a better idea of their basic physics, and perhaps a better understanding of physics. The radio telescope could make groundbreaking contributions in this respect."The massive radio telescope in Guizhou is expected to be put into operation sometime next year.

China Considers Limiting Third-party Online PaymentsAnchor:
China's central bank is proposing setting limits on the size of transactions through third-party online payment systems like Alipay.
The bank says it has put out the proposal for public scrutiny92 in an attempt to ensure security for consumers' information and money.
Under the proposal, the amount people will be able to spend through third-party online payments per day may be limited between one and 5-thousand yuan, depending on how sophisticated the system's security checks are.
Platforms that have both digital certification and signature qualification checks will be exempt93 from the restrictions94.
Those with only one qualification check will be limited to a thousand yuan per day.
If the system has two or more checks but don't have digital certifications and signatures, the limit will be 5-thousand yuan.
The central Bank says its basing the figures on the average spending by average Chinese consumers this past year.
For more on the proposal, we are now joined on the line by Mike Bastin, director of China Business Center based in London.
Questions:
Q1 What are the reasons behind the new policy? Does it mean that the current third-party online payment is unsafe?
Q2 What will the new policy bring to ordinary consumers? Will it make the payment procedure very complicated as the online payment is very popular among Chinese shoppers?
Q3 How will it influence the third-party online payment platforms?

However, they can't withdraw money from their Greek bank accounts to buy shares.
CITIC Securities responds to short-selling accusationsChina's top securities broker97, CITIC Securities, has responded to claims that it has short-sold some of its Chinese A-shares.
On Friday, the Shanghai and Shenzhen exchanges restricted trading of 24 separate accounts amid accusations96 their electronically-programmed trades were misleading other investors through frequent orders and cancellations.
One of the accounts had been run by by two shareholders98, a foreign hedge fund and Shenzhen-based CITIC United Venture Investment, which is a subsidiary of CITIC Securities.
This led to reports that CITIC had teamed up with foreign hedge funds to short-sell Chinese stocks.
In response, CITIC Securities has issued a statement, confirming the two sides had established the trading account 2010.
But CITIC says it ended its involvement with the account in November after transferred its equities99 out.
At the same time, CITIC insists it supports the government's regulatory measures to stabilize100 the stock market.
The authorities have announced they plan more scrutiny into set-rate buy and sell programs used by institutional investors.
As part of the programs, investment houses will either sell or buy stocks based on locked-in prices.
Chiense regulators say they believe this is factoring into the volitility on the markets.
China to impose export control on some drones and computersChinese authorities are set to impose export controls on certian drones and high performance computers this coming Saturday.
