Qingfeng Baozi(Dumplings) and Clinton Hotdogs

By Xuefei Chen Axelsson

Beijing, March 8(Greenpost) –While wandering around Jinsong in Southeastern Beijing, I saw Qingfeng Baozi or Qingfeng Dumplings outlet.

The headquarters of Qingfeng was in city proper Beijing in the downtown area. Due to Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit, Qingfeng became very popular. Thus it expands quickly to many places.

Two years ago I visited Qingfeng Dumplings in city proper, I was impressed by the queue.

But this time it reminds me of a visit to Iceland two years ago.  Then we had lunch at a small boutique where a man was selling Clinton hotdogs. Why? Because Clinton ate that hotdog when he visited Iceland.

Qingfeng Dumplings became very popular just because Xi Jinping visited it.

The famous people’s effect. If only Xi went to many more places so many more places will be popular!

 

 

Premier Li draws a comprehensive blueprint, action plan for China

By Xuefei Chen Axelsson

Beijing, March.5(Greenpost)–China’s Premier Li Keqiang made a very comprehensive and down to earth blueprint and action plan to China for the next five years and this year.

This year marks the beginning of the 13th five year plan period for China. China has set up a goal of realising the comprehensive wealthy and healthy society by 2020.

“We shall eradicate poverty all over the country by 2020,” said Premier Li.

He stressed economic development again as the first important task, but he also emphasised the importance of environment and the balance of structure.

He said China must restructure its economy so that it can be sustainable.

Li said the important task in the following five years will be to treat the filthy air pollution and water pollution. In 2015 China has outdated 1.26 million vehicles and it plans to outdate three million in the following five years.

He also emphasised the equal treatment between the state-owned enterprises and private sectors.  The government will further reduce tax for industries.

Modern agriculture is encouraged to help eradicate poverty.

Li stressed the completion of social security so that all the people in China can benefit from the social security.

He almost mentioned all the areas that need to be done in the country which draws a very promising picture for China.

China lawmaker calls for coordinated financial regulation

    BEIJING, Feb. 25 (Xinhua) — A Chinese lawmaker on Thursday called for coordinated financial regulation headed by the central bank to contain systemic risk in an industry fraught with cross-sector financing products.

The current mechanism of separate supervision by different financial organs will naturally lead to poor understanding of risk, Gu Shengzu, a member of the Financial and Economic Affairs Committee of the National People’s Congress, said at a press conference.

“The biggest economic risk China faces today is in the financial sector,” he stressed, singling out China’s turbulent stock market as a lesson to be learned for the regulatory mechanism.

Currently, China’s banking, securities and insurance industries are under separate regulators. As the financial market evolves, the boundaries of some financial services become blurred, leading to both overlapping regulation and supervision vacuum.

Gu suggested China move from segmented supervision to unified, led by the central bank, with greater emphasis on cross-sectoral regulation.

“The key task is to avoid risks crossing and spreading,” he added.  Enditem

政协新闻发言人王国庆答记者问

北欧绿色邮报网报道(记者陈雪霏)--政协开幕前夕,新闻发言人王国庆召开新闻发布会答记者问。

[记者]: 大家都知道春节期间香港发生了旺角暴乱,这个事件在内地和香港都引起了极大震惊。现在过去一段时间以后,大家在震惊当中反思背后是否有深层次的原因,不知道中央政府是怎样评估的?全国政协有什么看法?是否涉及到中央政府对香港的政策,有一些政策是否会发生变化?

[王国庆]: 香港是个开放的多元社会,不同界别、阶层的人士对经济、政治、社会等领域有不同看法,这都是正常的。但谋发展、保稳定、促和谐是香港广大市民的共同愿望,也是香港的根本利益所在。我们反对少数人采取违法甚至暴力手段妄图搞乱香港,破坏内地和香港的合作和交流。

香港回归将近19年了,19年来“一国两制”取得的成就是举世公认的。

中央贯彻“一国两制”的方针始终坚持两点,一是坚定不移、不会变、不动摇;二是全面准确,确保“一国两制”在香港的实践不走样、不变形,始终沿着正确的方向前进。

总的来说,维护国家的主权、安全和发展利益,保持香港长期繁荣稳定是“一国两制”方针的根本宗旨,也是实现中华民族伟大复兴中国梦的重要组成部分。

中国日报记者:官方数据说2015年空气质量好于往年,但老百姓感受不到,请问何时才能治理好?

王国庆:这几天空气不错,还庆幸可能不需要准备这个问题了,没想到今天雾霾又回来了!我也觉得官方数据与感受有反差,希望“白天蓝天白云,夜晚繁星闪烁”能常态化。

确实,我们在座各位对雾霾天气都非常敏感。刚才你提到有统计数据,但是没有感受到空气质量有明显的改善。我想说统计数据确实告诉我们总体情况是在向好的方向变化。以北京为例,2015年北京空气质量达标天数比2014年增加了14天,重污染天数较上一年减少了1天。但是为什么大家感觉统计数据和我们的感受有反差?为这个问题我请教了权威人士,他给我算了一下账我才明白,他告诉我去年前10个月情况不错,达标天数同上一年同期相比增加了31天。可是后两个月情况就糟糕了,后两个月同比减少了17天。一增一减全年就14天了。在年底北京两次启动红色预警,人们的感受可想而知了。在这儿我们还要非常客观的说,中国在治理雾霾方面已经做了很多,但是需要做的更多。

京华时报:在突发事件中,如何破解发言人不敢说不愿意说的局面?

王国庆:新闻发布制度已经成为我国社会政治生活当中一个不可或缺的内容,是政务公开、信息透明的一个重要渠道。如今各级政府主要负责人应当好第一新闻发言人的要求在最近的中办、国办文件中提出来了,这是我国政府新闻发布制度往前迈步的一个重要标志。

但是如何将要求落到实处,让新闻发言人和身为各级政府部门主要负责人的“第一新闻发言人”敢讲,会讲,我认为还要从三方面下功夫:

一是创造各级领导干部必须“讲”的条件,现在对这方面没有要求,领导干部不愿讲,能讲和不能讲都无关紧要,不影响任职,不影响提拔。因此,要把媒介素养当成领导干部基本素质要求,他与媒体记者打交道的能力和成效要列入业务考核。

二是要加强培训,不断提高领导干部与媒体打交道的能力和水平,“艺高人胆大”,不仅敢说了,还要会说。

三是要营造宽松环境,允许发言人说错话,只要不是原则性错误,一定不要不依不饶,穷追猛打。

京华时报:在这次发布会,您最希望听到什么样的评价?

王国庆:我希望看到的评价很简单:这个人可以坦诚交流沟通,至少大家没觉得我装腔作势就可以了,顺其自然。

王国庆曾经在中国国际广播电台任副台长,后担任国务院新闻办主任。他在鼓励干部敢于接受媒体采访,能够客观冷静对待媒体方面发挥过很大作用。
