Reporter:
Chinese President Xi Jinping, coming fresh off his time in-front of Chinese veterans and current troops, has told Vladimir Putin the two should be working together to ensure their shared history during the war is not forgotten.
"As time passes, young people know less about the war than those before them. History is also being forgotten and distorted. We have reached a consensus7 on this, and we should work more closely to protect our shared legacy8 of the War."At the same time, the Chinese President is also suggesting both China and Russia have a legacy to uphold.
"Both China and Russia, as some of the decisive battlefields of World War II in Asia and Europe, saw our troops make great sacrifices and contributions to the victory. As we are both founding members of the United Nations and permanent members of the UN Security Council, we need to shoulder the responsibility for world peace and stability."For his part, Russian President Vladimir Putin has taken time to laud10 Thursday's display at Tian'anmen.
"I am glad to attend the memorial events here in China and was deeply impressed by the grand commemoration and military parade. The attendances of the two militaries at each other's World War Two commemorations are of great significance to the bilateral11 ties."Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping have also overseen12 the signing of a number of bilateral agreements.
They've also discussed particulars about the Silk Road program.
Thursday's meeting is the third of the year between the Chinese and Russian leaders.
Putin's trip to Beijing is a reciprocal visit following Xi Jinping attendance at Russia's V-Day Parade in Moscow on May 9th.

World Impressed with China's V-Day ParadeAnchor:
China's military parade on Thursday marking the 70th anniversary of the victory of Chinese People's war of resistance against Japanese aggression has caught worldwide attention.
Observers around the world have spoken highly of the event.

Reporter:
In Saudi Arabia, the parade was closely followed by local media.
Abdullah Y. Alkowaileet, editor in chief of Alfaisal Magazine, says the parade showed China's confidence in safeguarding national security.
"The military parade has shown the world China's confidence. Today China no longer needs to prove its national strength by certain means. Through the parade, we can see the advanced level of Chinese heavy industry and other fields."He notes the announcement by President Xi Jinping to cut troops by 300-thousand verifies China's promise that it will never seek hegemony.
Bob Carr, former foreign minister of Australia, watched the military parade on the internet.
He comments that the commemoration helps people to learn about history, particularly the sacrifices and contributions made by China during World War II.
"I think it is good that young people have the opportunity to absorb the story of their parents and their grandparents. Young people in China need to understand that for 150 years China was torn apart by imperialist invasions."In Argentina, well-known international political analyst14 Jorge Castro says he was impressed by the speech delivered by President Xi Jinping.
"Chinese President Xi Jinping stressed in his speech that China will cut its troops by 300,000 within two to three years. It means, as President Xi noted, that it was to recall the history in which 35 million Chinese soldiers and civilians15 lost their lives; it was to deliver the message of peace and build universal consciousness of a common destiny of humanity to achieve common prosperity around the world."On Thursday, 50 formations including a total of 12-thousand troops took part in the Victory Day parade.
As many as 500 pieces of armaments and 200 fighter jets were reviewed during the parade.

S.Korean President Witnesses Reopen of Provisional Government Office in ShanghaiSouth Korean President Park Geun-hye took part in a ceremony on Friday to reopen the office of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea in Shanghai, which was established during Japan's 1910-1945 colonial rule.
According to the South Korean presidential office, the country and China have worked together to reopen the office this year, marking the 70th anniversary of Korean independence from Japan.
During a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday, Park thanked the Chinese government for making efforts to preserve historic sites in China where Koreans fought for independence.
The Provisional Government was established in April 1919 and it led independence efforts until Korea was liberalized from Japanese rule in 1945.
Several restoration projects were carried out since 1990, and the latest restoration of the Provisional Government building started in May 2015.
Chinese Consul16 General Hails NY's ResolutionThe Consul General of China in New York on Thursday hailed New York State's resolution expressing welcome to President Xi Jinping's state visit to the United States and its bipartisan support for stronger ties and friendship with China.
Consul General Zhang Qiyue says the resolution reflects both the reality and aspiration17 to build even closer ties.
"Seen from the current China-US relationship, I think the direction is very clear that people of the two countries share a harmonious18 and mutual19 good feeling, and have established friendship across many fields."The bill was proposed in May by Peter Abbate from the New York State Assembly, and gained wide support thereafter.
"This is the first time that I've seen a resolution passed on the cooperation between the two countries and on welcoming a president of a country from the New York State legislature."Data from the Consulate20 General in New York shows that the Chinese community in New York State has become one of the largest in the country.
CRRC USA Breaks Ground in MassachusettsAnchorChina Rail Rolling Stock Corp. Ltd held a ceremony on Thursday to mark the start of the building process of a railcar factory in the northeastern U.S state of Massachusetts.
The China-made rail cars will officially enter the American market.
CRI's Niu Honglin has more.
ReporterThe ceremony marking the beginning of the building process was held the city of Springfield.
Earlier in 2015, Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority awarded a 560 million dollar contract to China Rail Rolling Stock Corp. to design and manufacture 152 new Orange Line vehicles and 132 new Red Line vehicles for Boston's rail transit21 system.
Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker22 addressed those attending the ceremony, pointing out that the new plant is mutually beneficial for both sides.
"We are talking about manufacturing rail cars here in Springfield, that will serve not just Massachusetts, but over time I believe significant part of the Eastern Seaboard. It's just a great story for all of us. The key thing now is we all need to follow through and execute and turn that story into reality."The factory, with an area of 16 hectares, will invest some 60 million U.S. dollars and provide around 150 job opportunities. The new railcars will replace the 40-year-old old models currently serving Boston subway lines, and connect Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
"In the past we could only export shoes or socks to the United States. Now we can export a whole series of product services to the United States, including high-end equipment, technology, management, capital and services."He adds that CRRC products have been exported to about 100 countries and regions, with the enterprise gradually transforming its operational structure away from just merchandise to now exporting technology and capital, as well as expanding its global operations.
CRRC is the first Chinese railcar manufacturer to land a major U.S. transit contract. The state-owned company is now among the world's largest rail rolling stock manufacturers.
The new plant, which is scheduled to begin operations in 2016, will also have a 2,240-linear-foot test track. The first cars are expected to be rolled out in 2018.

Various Cultural Programs Lighten up Communities in QingdaoAnchor:
The city of Qingdao in Shandong is attempting to bank on local enthusiasm towards outdoor performances by promoting a series of activities in public venues24.
CRI's Luo Laiming has more.
Reporter:
As the night falls, the Badaxia Square in western Qingdao is packed with hundreds of people watching an outdoor show in the sizzling summer heat.
The local government has invested a huge amount of money in organizing outdoor performances presented by professional art troupes25 like the Qingdao Song and Dance Ensemble26. Xu Jing, deputy director of the Culture and Tourism Center in Shinan district, says that this performance is very well received among the people.
"The introduction of professional performers, for one thing, enriches civil culture, and for another, improves the art tastes of amateur performing teams which are usually organized by local residents."Qingdao has been cultivating its original cultural brand, and a drama club named "happiness" has come into the spotlight27 this summer.
Dong Ting is the curator of the Cultural Centre in Shinan District. He says Happiness drama club has been welcomed by audiences.
"The performances are very down to earth. We speak to the ordinary people to find topics that they are interested in like marriage and health. We've received a lot of positive feedback, and the audiences find our shows hilarious28. We even have our own fans after only five performances."Another significant program the government has been carrying out is related to reading. In order to cultivate good reading habits among the general public, Shinan district has set up 65 community libraries with inter-library lending services.
Xie Chunping is deputy general manager of the Qingdao Administration of Culture, Press, and Publication Bureau in Shinan district.
"The libraries are all standardized29 in terms of distribution and management. Residents can borrow books from all the libraries in Qingdao even without leaving their own communities. This is a far more convenient way to get access to books and further stimulates30 people's interests in reading."Zhang Ping is the deputy director of the Qingdao Administration of Culture, Press, and Publication Bureau, in Shinan district. She says that they've been exploring a new way to integrate cultural industries with public cultural services.
"Books are commonly seen in cafés, but they are often used for decoration. The number of books in a café is usually very limited due to budget and limited space. What we have been doing is to provide them with free services in terms of delivering new books to replace the old ones based on each café's size and location."With more far-sighted plans being implemented31, residents in Qingdao are hoping they can get access to more diverse and top-notched cultural programs in the near future.
Britain to Take in More Refugees, US Says Asylum32 Approval Process LengthyBritish Prime Minister David Cameron on Friday said Britain would accept thousands more Syrian refugees fleeing conflict.
"Britain has a moral responsibility to help refugees as we have done throughout our history. We're already providing sanctuary34 and we'll continue to do so. As the second largest bilateral donor35 to the crisis we have provided over 900 million pounds in aid to help those affected36 in Syria and the region."Cameron said Britain would take in people already in refugee camps to help them avoid a "hazardous37 journey which has cost so many of their lives."Meanwhile, the US State Department on Thursday stressed their support for the European Union's efforts to address the ongoing38 issue.
However, US State Department Deputy Spokesman Mark Toner also said that a more comprehensive approach to the problem was ultimately needed.
Toner said the approval for asylum seekers to enter the US could take up to two years.
"It's an extensive review process. Certainly folks coming from that part of the world, that region, we need to obviously conduct a thorough review process. I've been told it takes up to anywhere between 18 to 24 months, so, it's time-consuming."Toner further explained security concerns were behind the lengthy33 review and approval processes.
"These individuals, these refugees, asylum-seekers, who are being considered by DHS (Department of Homeland Security), have to pass security background checks, precisely39 because of some of the factors that you raised, which is that the fear from, you know, there's a lot of terrorist groups operating in that region, in that part of the world, and we need to make sure that, fundamentally, that we protect the national security of the United States of America."Europe has seen unprecedented40 numbers of refugees and migrants in recent months. Most of them have fled war-torn countries including Syria. European leaders have called for collective EU efforts and solutions to address the issueReunion Island Wing Part Belonged to MH370: French InvestigatorsFrench investigators41 have formally confirmed the plane wreckage42 found on Reunion Island is a part from the missing Malaysian Airlines flight MH 370.
The found wing part, known as a flaperon, was discovered on the French Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean on July 29. Malaysian authorities had previously43 announced that the part was indeed from the missing flight.
French authorities, however, remained more cautious until the latest announcement on Thursday. The French confirmation44 came after Airbus Defense45 and Space in Spain, which made the part for Boeing, matched a number on the part with the serial46 number of the MH370 Boeing triple seven aircraft.
The plane disappeared in March last year en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board. More than 150 of them were Chinese.
Suspects Not Linked to Bangkok Blast: Thai PoliceFingerprints from the two foreign suspects arrested in connection with the deadly Bangkok explosion last month did not match evidence from the blast site according to an announcement from Thai police on Friday.
Police have so far arrested two foreign nationals and 1 Thai citizen in the investigation47 into the blast.
Prawut Thawornsiri, Thailand's police spokesman, said the DNA48 test results from the second foreign suspect did not link him to the explosion on August 17.
"The DNA test result of the suspect to whom we issued an arrest warrant yesterday, Mr. Yusufu, doesn't not match with DNA found on a bank note and vehicles."The spokesman was referring to Yusufu Mieraili, the second suspect arrested near the Thailand-Cambodia border on Tuesday. Police were testing his DNA to match those left by the prime suspect after the blast. DNA was left in a taxi and on a bank note given to the driver.
Police earlier raided two apartments near Bangkok and found chemical substances used to manufacture bombs. The spokesman said the second suspect's DNA did match those left in one of the apartments, however.
The announcement came as a blow to the investigation efforts. According to released information so far, no evidence links the two foreign suspects to the attack.
Meanwhile, Thailand's Department of Fine Arts has restored a statue of a Hindu god, which was damaged in the Bangkok attack.
The Erawan shrine49, which was the site of the blast, hosted a ceremony on Friday as the statue was put back on display. A number of senior Thai officials attended the ceremony, highlighting the need to restore people's confidence and a sense of normalcy to the country.
Indonesian president orders search for victims of sunken boat off MalaysiaIndonesian President Joko Widodo on Friday ordered Indonesian rescuers to search for the victims of a sunken boat off the coast of Malaysia.
The wooden boat which was reportedly heading for Indonesia carrying 70 Indonesian migrant workers, capsized on Thursday off Malaysia' s western coast.
Indonesian rescuers from the national search and rescue office have been conducting the operation and also coordinating51 with national police for identification of the victims.
It's been suggested that two possible causes for the accident are overloading52 and bad weather.
"Zhang Huoding phenomenon" comes to New YorkAnchorPeking Opera megastar Zhang Huoding has made her debut53 in New York.
Her shows, sold-out here in China on a regular basis, are doing the same in 'The Big Apple.'
CRI's Su Yi has more from New York.
ReporterIs the 200-year-old Peking Opera losing its popularity in China?
Well, don't tell that to the throngs54 of people who are willing to pay a thousand US dollars to buy a pair of sold-out tickets on the black market.
The 44-year-old has a huge fan base, particularly among the younger generation.
She's made her New York debut at the David Koch Theater at Lincoln Center.
Over a dozen of her fans have followed her here from China for the two performances.
Her New York debut, 'The Legend of the White Snake' tells a love story between a young woman, said to have the spirit of a white snake, and a kind-hearted young man.
Their love and marriage are challenged by a Buddhist56 monk57, who is meant to represent the conservative power in society.
Zhang Huoding says her performance came from something she tried 15-years ago.
"The Legend of the White Snake is not part of the Cheng School. But I started to try this score with the vocal58 methods and moves from the Cheng School in 2000. The vocal tones and performing style are quite different."The Cheng School is one of the four major Peking Opera performance styles that emerged in the early 20th century.
This is considered the renaissance59 of Peking Opera.
After graduating from an opera school in Tianjin in 1989, Zhang Huoding began training under a Peking Opera master who studied the works of Cheng Yanqiu, the founder60 of the style she's adopted.
Zhang herself is very soft-spoken, rarely granting interviews.
She lives in Beijing with her husband and their 3-year-old daughter.
She spends most of her time trying to perfect her craft, as well as teach at the National Academy of Chinese Theater Arts.
Academy Director Ba Tu says her pursuit of Cheng-style is an inspiration to those around her.
"We give full-respect to the traditions of the Cheng School. And we respect her attempt to follow the traditional ways. She pursues selflessness and shows respect to the masters at a time when traditional culture is rapidly being marginalized. She has never made changes to her style, despite a culture now which prefers a 'fast-food' mentality62."One of Zhang's colleagues, opera professor Fu Jin, says her dedication63 to the classic art-form is something which will help keep it alive.
"We've made too many changes to try to save Peking Opera. That is a mistake. I think the only way to preserve the originality64 of the shows, and to preserve the art itself, is to showcase the beauty of tradition."Zhang Huoding is going to be one of the subjects of a 10-episode documentary recording65 several active Peking Opera performers of her generation.
Those putting together the documentary are also hoping to preserve a slice of Peking Opera, which UNESCO has inscribed66 in its Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2010.

Foreign brands chase consumers in lower-tier Chinese citiesAnchor:
With more foreign brands entering the Chinese market, competition is becoming tougher than ever.
CRI's Min Rui has more.
Reporter:
Foreign brands are becoming cheaper in China as a result of their pursuit for consumers in lower-tier cities along with competition from the e-commerce market.
However some consumers still think their goods are more expensive than the same ones sold overseas even after the price reduction.
Meanwhile, others are still happy to see the price cut on high quality goods.
"For me, I think the quality is always high here, and with the price adjustment, it makes it more attractive to purchase more products."Recently, popular Japanese lifestyle brand MUJI and Australia UGG have re-priced products on the Chinese mainland.
This is the third adjustment that MUJI has made in the past year. It cuts some one hundred products by an average of some 20 percent.
Wang Ziheng, a student, visited the store to check out the cheaper items.
"I am a student, my budget is limited. So I am more interested in stationery99 and food, but there don't seem to be many discounts on these."In a written response, MUJI says that sales in stores went up by nearly 160 percent in the past two weeks, and that the purpose of price adjustments is to close price gaps among different countries.
Another lifestyle brand, UGG Australia, also made similar moves last month.
However, even after the price changes, products on the Chinese mainland are still some 30 percent to 40 percent higher than in other countries.
Ken9 Chen, Managing Director of consulting firm L.E.K., says customs duties are one factor contributing to higher prices on the Chinese mainland.
"At least a few years ago when there was less information that signaled what the brand stands for, that price is a strong signal of product premiumness, of safety, of quality. Brands using agents, or even they do it on their own. The percentage (of consumers) might be small of high income earners, but the absolute numbers are just huge. So that they see a ready and able to buy consumer base for their higher-priced products, so why not go for the higher margin61?
He also said, as consumers become more sophisticated and exposed to additional product offers on the Internet, they will increasingly be on the lookout100 for more offers and value for money goods.
Realizing this, brands will have to lower their prices.
In addition, the market has recently become more competitive on the Chinese mainland.
Fast fashion brands such as ZARA and H&M have all brought their home furnishing lines to the market.
Ni Renxia, Marketing101 Manager of the China Retail102 Group, says with intensified103 competition, the brands have to lower prices to capture a broader market.
"The consumption market in first-tier cities has already been saturated104, with brands having enough influence. But for the second and third tier cities, such prices are probably a little bit too high. Lower prices may more conform to the purchasing power of these cities, where the markets are still driven by price. If the price is attractive and the quality is not poor, people would be more open to try other brands."According to research by L.E.K. Consulting, despite the increasing use of e-commerce platforms in purchasing foreign brands, people in lower-tier cities visit and make purchases in physical stores more frequently than those in upper-tier cities.
The Economist105 predicts that by 2020, 66 percent of China's mid-income consumers will come from medium-sized or small cities.

Alibaba chairmen said to plan $US2b loan against stockAlibaba's Chairman Jack106 Ma and Vice Chairman Joseph Tsai are planning to raise more than 2 billion U.S. dollars through a margin loan pledged against the company's stock.
Sources say the money raised may be used to fund Blue Pool Capital, a Hong Kong-based family office set up to manage the wealth of Alibaba executives.

However, the final decision has not been made and the deal may still fall through.
Alibaba's stock has been falling since its high in November on the New York Stock Exchanges, and last month dropped below its September 2014 IPO.
