Top NewsHeavy casualties reported after strong Afghanistan-Pakistan earthquake, toll3 rising above 280More than 280 people have died after a 7.5-magnitude earthquake hit north-eastern Afghanistan, affecting Pakistan, India and Tajikistan.
The bulk of the casualties were reported from Pakistan.
Officials are warning the death toll would rise as rescue workers rush to the remote areas where communications have been cut off.
In the most severely4 affected5 areas of Pakistan, officials said at least 154 deaths have been confirmed alone in Khyber Pakh-tun-khwa province.
Provincial6 minister Inayatullah Khan said they are still collecting data from the field.
"The death toll so far reported by the provincial disaster management authority is more than 140 dead and 1,002 injured, and the houses fully7 damaged are in thousands, partially8 damage are also in thousands. These figures are pre-mature because we are still collecting the data from the field and we are still reconciling the data and the situation will be clear by tomorrow or day after tomorrow."In Afghanistan, 12 school girls were killed in a crush while they were trying to escape from the building.
Three other provinces also reported at least 52 deaths in total.
The earthquake was similar to a 7.6-magnitude quake in Kashmir which killed more than 70-thousand people ten years ago.
However, unlike the previous one, the Monday earthquake took place at a depth of some 200 kilometers below the earth's surface, causing less damage.
China, Netherlands seek stronger partnership11 as Dutch King visitsChina and the Netherlands are vowing12 to boost cooperation in the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative and the Asian Infrastructure13 Investment Bank.
The remarks come as Chinese President Xi Jinping met with visiting Dutch King Willem-Alexander in Beijing.
The Netherlands is one of the 57 prospective14 founding members of the AIIB.
President Xi called for both sides to maintain the sound momentum15 of cooperation in marine16 transportation and seek cooperation in more areas such as finance, air transportation, agriculture and new energy.
The two leaders also agreed to boost exchanges in the fields of coping with climate change, culture, education, sports and panda protection.
The Dutch King also vowed17 to promote trade and personnel exchanges between the EU and China since the Netherlands will take the EU's rotating presidency18 in the first half of next year.
Both state leaders witnessed the signing of 15 cooperation agreements after their talks, ranging from finance, trade to aviation, technology and panda protection.
King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima are currently on their first state visit to China since the King ascended19 the throne two years ago.
It is a reciprocal visit following President Xi's state visit to the Netherlands in March last year.
Four Chinese dairy enterprises join Sino-Dutch Dairy Development CenterFour Chinese dairy product producers have officially joined the Sino-Dutch Dairy Development Centre.
It is the first time for China's dairy enterprises to join in an international cooperation project.
The four enterprises are from Beijing, Inner Mongolia, Henan and Liaoning provinces.
Chief scientist at the China National Dairy Industry and Technology System, Li Shengli said Chinese dairy enterprises will benefit a lot from the new platform.
"We can learn about the ideas from some European countries on cattle raising, milk processing, and quality control. It's important to promote the Chinese dairy industry from scientific and product quality parts. It will be a trend that Chinese dairy industry will go through internationalization."For his part, Chairman of the Dutch Dairy Association, Roelof Joosten said the platform could help Chinese dairy producers improve the quality of milk products.
"And the Sino-Dutch Dairy Development Center can help together with the Chinese dairy industry to build on that, to get safety and quality back into the Chinese dairy industry. And that itself will result in more confidence for consumer level, resulting in more demand."The Sino-Dutch Dairy Development Centre was jointly20 established in 2013 by the Chinese Ministry21 of Agriculture, China Agricultural University, and the Dutch Ministry of Agriculture.
Premier Li to visit South Korea, attend China-Japan-South Korea summitAnchorChinese Premier Li Keqiang is set to pay an official visit to South Korea and attend the sixth Trilateral Summit Meeting between China, Japan and South Korea.
CRI's Victor Ning reports.
ReporterIt will be Li's first visit to South Korea as premier and the first visit to South Korea by a Chinese premier in five years.
The premier will attend the sixth Trilateral Summit Meeting on the sidelines of his visit from Saturday to Monday.
Vice22 Foreign Minister Liu Zhenmin says good relations between China, Japan and South Korea will help improve the economic situation, both locally and globally.
"Facing the complicated international situation and the weak recovery of the world economy, strengthening trilateral cooperation will help maintain regional peace and stability, and power the economic development of Asia and the world."For his part, assistant Minister of Commerce Tong Daochi says close economic ties are of great importance as each of the three countries plays an important role in the world economy and international trade cooperation.
"China, Japan and South Korea combined account for 20 percent of the world economy, 20 percent of the world population and 20 percent of the world's total foreign investment. Strengthening economic and trade cooperation between these countries will be beneficial to promoting regional integrity and global economic cooperation."The first trilateral meeting was held in 2008.
But the meetings have been halted since 2012 as tensions among the three countries soured over territorial23 disputes.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying says all parties should seize the opportunity for cooperation.
"It's been three years since the trilateral leaders' summit was held last time. China hopes the sides can take the opportunity to pave the way for future cooperation, strengthening cooperation in traditional areas as well as new areas. The three sides should tackle historical issues properly and provide a stable environment for future development. "The spokesperson also adds that the three countries should continue partnerships24 in areas including trade, culture and sustainable development, and expand into new areas such as the economy, information technology and poverty reduction.

Opportunities and Challenges Both Exist for Private Investors25 in PPP Projects: ExpertsAnchorWith more and more private capital invited to public-private partnership in China, also known as PPP projects, many experts believe that private investors will be facing both a series of opportunities and several challenges.
CRI's Xie Cheng has more.
Reporter7 Chinese provinces announced last week that 287 PPP projects collectively worth around 940 billion yuan, or 148 billion U.S. dollars, will be open to private investors.
Those projects include municipal works, highways, rail, airports, water conservation and energy projects.
The announcement was made during a PPP promotion26 teleconference organized by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) in cooperation with the All-China Federation27 of Industry and Commerce.
Zhang Yong, deputy head of the NDRC, says the partnerships could help improve structural28 reform of investment and financing, energize29 private investment, while improving public products and services.
"We'll make great efforts to promote the PPP mode. For the past three quarters of this year, private investment in the fields of infrastructure and public utilities, where private companies seldom invested in before, has increased by around 27% compared to the same period of last year. The acceleration30 of such investment is 16.6% higher than the whole investment."However, in some of the PPP projects, private enterprises still lack enough participation31 compared to their state-owned counterparts.
Wang Qinmin, head of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, says private investors still face a series of problems and challenges.
"Some private enterprises still lack confidence and willingness to invest due to the decrease of their own space for gaining profits, while others don't know which areas they could invest in. The environment for PPP projects investment still needs improvement."He adds that some of the private investors lack enough understanding towards relevant policies, which might bring negative effects to their investments.
The NDRC will next hold more project promotion meetings in many different types so as to attract more private enterprises to participate in investing in PPP projects.

China to Further Develop Rural E-CommerceAnchorE-commerce development in China's rural areas has topped the agenda of this year's Western E-business Development Summit in Sichuan Province, as the country is seeking to expand the domestic market to boost a slowing economy.
CRI's Huang Shan has more.
ReporterE-commerce in China's rural areas has been developing quickly in recent years.
Data shows the country now has 77 million rural residents shopping online, a 40-percent growth rate year on year.
Shoppers in rural areas contributed some 180 billion yuan to China's economy last year.
The figure is expected to hit 460 billion yuan by the end of next year.
Noting the importance of online-to-offline model, Hou Enlong, chief operating officer of e-commerce giant Suning, said the company has expanded its online shopping to offline service centers to better accommodate rural customers' needs.
"We need to do three things. The first is to deliver industrial products to the countryside, and have the rural shoppers buy things at the same price as those in the cities. The second is to transfer agricultural products to the whole country by Suning's self-run courier services. The third is to connect farmers to an online payment system so that they can learn to use the Internet to purchase, sell and promote products."However, building offline service centers in rural areas and attracting farmers to shop online is no easy task.
Logistics and infrastructure still remain the biggest barriers to the e-commerce development in rural areas.
E-commerce company Tyfo has come up with a plan - setting up rural cooperatives as service centers.
Founded by China Telecom, Tyfo.com is the largest e-commerce platform in Sichuan province.
Tyfo CEO Zheng Chengyu said they are working on turning the telecom operator's branches into rural cooperatives.
"There are China Telecom office branches in almost every village and city across the country, which helps a lot in solving the problem of setting up offline service centers. Asking rural residents to use the Internet to open online stores would be a very unrealistic dream, so we've got to take the form of rural cooperatives and select a few leaders to help the farmers achieve this."Another barrier for rural e-commerce development is the shortage of young talents in rural areas.
Feng Quanlin, Alibaba's regional managing director of rural business in west China, explains the urgent need for human resources in the countryside.
"The core problem of developing rural e-commerce lies in the difficulty of buying and selling products, and the fundamental method of solving the problem is to attract young talents to work in the countryside. One difference between Alibaba and other enterprises is that all our rural e-commerce staffers are full-time32 workers. We have university graduates, demobilized servicemen as well as returning migrant workers. "Despite these barriers, rural e-commerce is nevertheless booming in China.
Alibaba is planning to invest 10 billion yuan within the next three years to build a rural logistics network that covers 100,000 villages.
In the meantime, Suning is also going to have 10,000 service centers set up throughout the country in five years.
As China has vowed to eradicate33 poverty in the next five years, rural e-commerce is expected to become a major means for achieving that goal.

China mulls routine navigation through Arctic waters to EuropeShipping experts are considering routine navigation through Arctic waters to link China and Europe, a shortcut35 to bypass the route that passes through the Malacca Strait and Suez Canal.
Earlier this month, Chinese vessel36 Yong Sheng finished a record-setting round trip from Europe to north China by sailing through the Arctic waters of the Northeast Passage and docking at Tianjin Port.
The cargo37 ship is the first Chinese merchant ship to sail from Europe to China via the Northeast Passage, an icy path north of Russia and Scandinavia.
Yong Sheng sailed nearly 20 thousand nautical38 miles, or over 37 thousand kilometers during the 55-day voyage.
Many experts expect the Arctic passage to become the next "golden waterway" for trade between China and Europe.
The 19,000-tonne vessel first started its journey from Dalian to Rotterdam on August 8, 2013, sailing through the Northeast Passage and shortening the traditional shipping34 time by nine days.
France Offers Explanation for Fatal Coach CrashFrance has offered an explanation for a bus crash that killed 43 people on Friday.
Christophe Auger39, a public prosecutor40, on Monday said a fire broke out between a truck and a bus after the two crashed.
"Following the shock between the two vehicles, a metallic41 object punctured42 the truck's bodyworks and perforated the extra fuel tank located just behind the truck's cabin. The projection43 of gasoline would have then caught fire by coming into contact with a hot surface, the nature of which the experts will determine."The prosecutor said the windshield on the bus then broke, letting in inflamed44 gas and setting the cabin on fire.
The bus was carrying a number of senior citizens on a trip in southwestern France. This was the deadliest road accident in France in more than 30 years. Investigators45 are currently identifying the victims.
Top nuke envoys46 for six-party talks to gather in Seoul this weekTop nuclear envoys for the Six Party Talks on dismantling47 North Korea's nuclear program will meet in South Korea this week.

Israel Marks 20 Anniversary of Rabin's AssassinationAnchorIsrael commemorated50 the 20th anniversary of former Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin's assassination49 on Monday amid recent tensions with Palestinians. CRI's Qian Shanming has more.
ReporterDuring an official memorial ceremony for former Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu compares the current wave of violence with the security situation that Rabin faced before his assassination.
"Rabin knew that the terrorists aspire51 to shed our blood, to uproot52 us from our homeland - the same Palestinian terror and recalcitrance53 that continues until today. Terrorism won't bring us down. Its perpetrators did not defeat us in the past and will not defeat us in the future. We will continue reaching out a hand for peace to whoever recognizes our right to live."Tensions have been mounting for weeks in Israel and the Palestinian territories. Since the beginning of October, fierce clashes have brought the Israeli death toll to 10, while Israeli forces have shot dead at least 60 Palestinians.
It is reported on Monday that Netanyahu is considering revoking54 residency permits from Arabs living in east Jerusalem as a measure to deal with the spate55 of attacks.
The current situation reminds more Israelis of Rabin, who finalized56 in 1990s the Oslo Accords which were heralded57 then as steps toward enduring peace. However, he was assassinated58 by a Jewish extremist on November 4, 1995, during a peace rally in Tel Aviv.
Many people attending Monday's ceremony say the government should follow Rabin's steps to continue with the peace process.
"People loved Rabin. He gave us great hope. He gave us choice to live with the Palestinians. He did it only for the existing of the Jewish nation.""We need to start to speak. You don't make peace with somebody that you love. You make peace with somebody you don't like, with enemy. If you don't have peace you don't have anything here. I don't want my children to live in war. I want them to live in peace."Hanan Ashrawi, a Palestinian legislator who witnessed the signing of the Oslo Accords, gives a relatively59 positive comment on Rabin's efforts for peace.
"He made a serious and substantive60 transformation61 and presupposition vis-a-vis the Palestinians. I think he came to recognition that there is no military solution and therefore there is a need for a political solution, so in that sense he did change the course of Israeli history, for a short while, unfortunately."But she says things have been going downhill since, and that the only way to end the decades of conflict is to end the occupation.
(Soundbite 5, Ashrawi2, female in English)"If there is any political will to see an end to this horrific situation, then we need to see an end to the occupation, and from then on we can move ahead. Or I think the situation will continue to degenerate62 and it will generate greater violence and extremists. There is no way in which you can build a state under occupation."For CRI, I'm Qian Shanming.
Abbas and Mogherini comment on Mideast tensionPalestinian President Mahmoud Abbas is seeking the help of the European Union to de-escalate the crisis with Israel.
He blamed the current unrest on policies and actions of the Israeli government.
"Probably one of the main reasons behind the events in Palestine is the feeling of disappointment in the younger generation who basically do not see any hope looming63 ahead with regard to the solution to their plight64."EU Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini introduced what she would focus on with Abbas.
"We will concentrate also on this: how together with calming down the security situation on the ground and exercising leadership, how we can together work to have a political process leading somewhere, and somewhere we know that very well is the two-state solution. "Mogherini added they have to have the political horizon preserved, the situation on the ground, security-wise improved and concrete steps that can improve the lives of the people.
Palestinian medical sources said three Palestinians were shot dead on Monday by the Israeli army in separate incidents in the southern West Bank city of Hebron, a center of violence for the past few days.
The current unrest was sparked by tension at east Jerusalem's al-Aqsa mosque65 compound in mid-September, where Palestinians rejected new Israeli measures at al-Aqsa.
38 pct of Fukushima evacuation workers exposed to radiation above limit: authoritiesThe Japanese Government has said that 38 percent of evacuation workers from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power facility were exposed to radiation above the annual limit.
A survey conducted by Japan's Cabinet Office suggests that those workers have been exposed to radiation levels of 1 millisievert or more.
19 percent of the sample was exposed to between 1 to 2 millisieverts, while 5 percent of them between 5 and 10.
Those workers were either evacuation-related first responders or those involved in decontamination and clean-up operations in the days following the multiple meltdowns at the nuclear facility, whose barriers were breached66 by a tsunami67 triggered by a massive earthquake 4 years ago.
Meantime, the government report also showed that radiation levels dropped one week after the terrible earthquake, but had spiked68 in the middle of the month following a hydrogen explosion at the plant's third reactor69 building.
The radiation exposure figures come as Japan green lit plans earlier Monday to bring a third nuclear reactor back online, as Japan's Fukushima-induced two-year nuclear power hiatus comes to an end.
For civilians70 involved in such rescue operations, an exposure level of 1 millisievert has been floated as the limit.
WHO agency: Processed meats can lead to cancerThe World Health Organisation's cancer agency says processed meats can lead to colon71 and other cancers, and red meat is also a likely cause of the disease.
Researchers from the WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer, or IARC, in Lyon, have released an evaluation72 of more than 800 studies from several continents about meat and cancer.
Dr Kurt Straif with IARC introduces the study results.
"From the combined analysis of several studies there was about a 17 percent increase of cancers of the colorectum per portion of about 50 grams per day of processed meat. Now that increased risk is about similar for red meat - it's 1.17 per 100 grams - but again the evidence if it's really causally related is not as strong yet."Based on the evaluation, processed meat is classified as "carcinogenic to humans" - in the same category as tobacco, asbestos and diesel73 fumes- and red meat as "probably carcinogenic to humans."Dr. Dana Loomis of the IARC explains that it doesn't mean processed meat is as risky74 as smoking.
"But it's important to recognize that those classifications relate to the strength of scientific evidence for carcinogenicity and not to the level of risk. So even though they are all on the same category, the level of risks for tobacco smoking is much larger than the risk associated with eating meat, ten times larger than the risk for processed meat, for example."The Global Burden of Disease Project says if the cancer link with red meat were confirmed, diets rich in red meat could be responsible for 50,000 deaths a year worldwide.

We've had to work hard to be here and, now for all the team, whether they are thinking of moving or not, this is, it's all about the here and the now. This is the moment, and there will be plenty of time afterwards to talk about people, but, we don't want to waste this opportunity, so we're putting everything we can into, into doing what, the only thing we can do, which is prepare well day by day."We will find out if New Zealand can write that piece of unprecedented120 history come Saturday at Twikenham.
F1: Rosberg takes iconic 1958 Benz for a drive in TexasMercedes driver Nico Rosberg took the iconic 1958 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster for a drive, while in Texas for the latest round of the Grand Prix season.
The car was first introduced in 1954 as a two-set coupe before being remodeled as a roadster and was the fastest production car of its day.
Rosberg is obviously no stranger to speed.
The German driver is currently third in the overall Formula one standings, and although team-mate Lewis Hamilton wrapped up the drivers' championship in Texas on Sunday, Rosberg is in a battle with compatriot Sebastian Vettel to take second place.
He trails Vettel by just four points with three races remaining.
EntertainmentChina Fashion Week Kicks off in BeijingChinese local fashion brand NE TIGER opened this year's China Fashion Week in Beijing, with the theme of "Qipao".

More than 70 established designers and some 135 promising123 designers from over 90 brands and organizations will present their latest fashion trends in roughly 66 shows.
A Chinese designer Yang Ziming elaborates on the inspiration behind his design.
"I blended new elements into my designs, like combining net-like cloth and colorful cloth, causing the clothing to change colors as people move. It's very interesting. I combined sports and business style to make my designs elegant and relaxing."Besides local indie brands, vice president of China Fashion Week, Zhang Qinghui, indicates foreign brands have enjoyed an increasing presence in this year's event.
"The number of international designers and brands takes up about 30 percent of this year's fashion week. This is rarely seen in previous shows."Established in 1997, the 2015 China Fashion Week runs until November 3rd.
British Royals Attend New James Bond's Film World PremierPrince William, his wife Catherine, and Prince Harry124 added a touch of royal class to the new James Bond film 'Spectre' at its world premiere in London on Monday.
The royals were welcomed outside London's Royal Albert Hall by the film's co-producers.
Being the twenty-fourth James Bond film, 'Spectre' features Daniel Craig in his fourth performance as James Bond.
This new installment125 depicts126 James Bond's first encounter with the global criminal agency known as Spectre, and peels back the layers of deceit to reveal the terrible truth behind the agency.

'Spectre' is scheduled to be released in China on November 13th.
Nicholas Hoult Unveils Details on His Character in 'Kill Your Friends'
British actor Nicholas Hoult has unveiled more details of his character in the upcoming film 'Kill Your Friends'.
The 25-year-old actor says playing this drug-abusing, ruthless A and R man was his biggest challenge ever.
"Doing films like this, it's hard work. You get in there and its 6 day weeks and also, with this, it's a very fast shoot so you have to be on-point. We didn't have any rehearsal127 time really, so you just have to hit the ground running and then be on top of things, otherwise you will just get swallowed up by it so... And such a great cast and crew we had on it that, yeah, I was enjoying it."Based on the novel with the same name, 'Kill Your Friends' set the plot in 1997, when Britpop ruled the airwaves.
This dark comedy-thriller gives a satirical look at the hedonistic side of the British music industry, and the impractical128 ambitions of the young record executive played by Hoult.
Directed by Owen Harris, Craig Roberts and Georgia King also star in this film.
'Kill Your Friends' is set to hit theaters on November 6th in the UK.
