China’s electroplating industry to embrace standard management

 

BEIJING, July 15 (Xinhua) — Chinese authorities have formulated standards for the domestic electroplating industry and are now collecting public opinions on the standards, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) on Tuesday.


The enterprise scale will be a rigid threshold for access to the electroplating industry, which will help enhance market share of leading enterprises, say analysts.

China to stick to prudent monetary policy: PBOC

          BEIJING, July 14 (Greenpost) — The People’s Bank of China (PBOC), the central bank, on Tuesday announced it “will continue to implement the prudent monetary policy, and improve the financial system’s capability to serve the real economy”.
The PBOC did not change its monetary policy stance after the latest quarterly meeting of its monetary policy committee, saying China will pursue a “prudent and balanced” monetary policy with more attention to striking a balance between tight and loose.
China’s economic and financial developments are stable on the whole, but the complexity of economic and financial operations should not be underestimated, the PBOC said in a statement.
The central bank will use multiple monetary policy tools in a flexible manner and maintain moderate liquidity in the market to ensure loans and social financing register reasonable growth.
The PBOC said it will work to improve reform of the financial system, enhance the system’s operational efficiency, improve the structure of financing, increase the proportion of direct financing, and reduce the cost of social financing.
High financing costs for Chinese enterprises, smaller firms in particular, has held back growth, experts said.
It also called for continued market-oriented interest rate reform, and for the renminbi’s exchange-rate reform to keep it stable.
The global economy is undergoing profound adjustments after the financial crisis, with major economies staging divergent performance, noted the statement.
The United States has witnessed more positive economic signs, while the European and Japanese economies are showing mild recoveries with deflationary risks, but some emerging markets face difficulties, said the PBOC.
The central bank said it will follow global economic and financial developments and the behavior of capital flows.
The quarterly meeting was chaired by PBOC governor Zhou Xiaochuan, also the chairman of the committee, and attended by senior government officials and economists.
China’s economy grew 7.4 percent in 2014, the slowest rate for 24 years. The PBOC has moved to combat the economic slowdown, cutting benchmark interest rates four times since November and lowering banks’ reserve requirement ratio twice since February.  Enditem

China nods local gov’nt bonds to be collaterals for banks’ Treasury cash deposits

BEIJING, July 14 (Greenpost) – China has put local government bonds into the qualified collaterals pool for banks’ term deposits of Treasury cash on June 30, according to a circular released by the Ministry of Finance and the central bank Tuesday.
As the document says, bonds issued or to be issued by any Chinese local governments can be taken by banks as collaterals for their term deposits of Treasury cash from both the central government and local governments.
However, Chinese banks are required to pledge an amount of local government bonds whose par value is equal to 115 percent of the value of their Treasury cash term deposits to rein in risks.
Analysts held that Chinese regulators took the move to increase the relatively poor liquidity of local government bonds, issues of which was set to boom to at least 1.6 trillion yuan in 2015.
In future, MOF and the Chinese central bank will adjust the scale and proportion of collaterals for products to manage Treasury cash to guarantee safety of Treasury cash. Enditem

China can promote healthy development of capital market: premier

BEIJING, July 10 (Xinhua) — China has the confidence and capability to promote the healthy development of its capital market and provide a sound financial environment for economic growth, Premier Li Keqiang said.

“China is and will face various challenges and risks during economic expansion. We will never take them lightly,” Li told a conference on the current economic situation on Thursday, according to a cabinet statement released Friday.
“We are confident that the government can ward off any regional or systemic risks in the economy and ensure we have an open, transparent, stable and healthy capital market,” said the premier.
Li’s remarks came as China is trying to arrest a stock market nosedive that devoured huge amounts of wealth in a three-week plunge.
For the premier, the country’s economic fundamentals are sound. Since the second quarter of 2015, the Chinese economy has been operating steadily with signs of improvement, according to Li.
“Economic vitality is increasing and market confidence is rebounding,” he said.
However, the premier warned that the foundation of the economy is not yet solid and external uncertainties are increasing.
“Therefore, we need to make more efforts to underpin economic growth,” said Li.
He reiterated the government’s determination to overhaul economic structure, cut redtape, encourage entrepreneurship and innovation, improve people’s livelihood, and boost public services.  Enditem

China’s fiscal revenue rises 13.9 pct in June

    BEIJING, July 15 (Greenpost) — China’s fiscal revenue rose 13.9 percent year on year to 1.53 trillion yuan (251.39 billion U.S. dollars) in June, the Ministry of Finance announced on Wednesday.

Combined fiscal revenue in the first six months hit 7.96 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 6.6 percent. The growth was 4.1 percentage points lower than the rise seen in the same period last year.     Several factors have caused slower growth, the ministry said, including lower global commodity prices that triggered a fall in import value, slowing industrial activity, a reduction in business tax collected from a sluggish property sector, as well as the government’s efforts to cut taxes and fees to relieve the burden on businesses.
The ministry said it will strengthen budget management and keep cutting taxes and fees in the July-December period.
Fiscal spending in June hit 1.88 trillion yuan, up 13.9 percent year on year. Total fiscal spending in the first half of the year amounted to 7.73 trillion yuan, up 11.8 percent year on year, with spending on social security and employment up 20.9 percent to 1.04 trillion yuan.

China plans to raise its budget deficit to 2.3 percent of its GDP for 2015, up from last year’s target of 2.1 percent.
China’s economy posted 7-percent growth year on year in the second quarter of 2015, unchanged from the first quarter, the lowest quarterly growth rate since 2009.  EnditemSource XinhuaEditor  Xuefei Chen Axelsson

More firms established in H1 amid improving business environment

BEIJING, July 15 (Greenpost) — The number of newly registered enterprises in China continued to rise in the first half of 2015, official data showed Wednesday, indicating growing enthusiasm for innovation and entrepreneurship.
The number of new firms jumped 19.4 percent from a year ago to 2.1 million in the first six months, according to data released by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce (SAIC).
“This growth shows that a creative, entrepreneurial spirit has been stoked by business reform,” said Yu Fachang, a SAIC spokesperson.
By the end of June, there were around 74.20 million business in China, up 7 percent from the end of 2014, data showed.
The number of new firms registered in the service sector accounted for 80.3 percent of the total, or 1.607 million during the first six months, the SAIC data showed. This is a 22.6 percent increase compared to the same period last year.
Yu said this reflected improvement in China’s economic structure, with the service sector playing a bigger role in growth and job creation.
Amid an economic slowdown, China has been improving business registration processes since last year, removing the minimum capital requirements, replacing annual company inspections with a reporting system and loosening site requirements for businesses.
Easier market access and an improving environment for businesses also boosted employment at privately-owned enterprises.
A total of 264 million people were working in the private sector as at the end of June, an increase of 14.54 million from the end of 2014. Enditem

斯德哥尔摩瓦萨公园六月份的景色

北欧绿色邮报记者陈雪霏拍摄的斯德哥尔摩瓦萨公园六月份的美丽景色。

IMG_8864

瑞典的夏天晴天较多,只要是晴天,天就是这样肆无忌惮地蓝,让人心情豁然开朗,万分舒畅,留连忘返。

IMG_8863

IMG_8862

在这里鸟都不怕人,而且喜欢在人周围转,因为孩子们有时会吃面包或薯条,会掉一些吃的给它们。

 

IMG_8861

瑞典人养狗的很多,无论是老太太还是大姑娘,甚至是小伙子,都可以养狗,而且,经常在街道上或公园里能看到。大多数人都是出门带一个塑料袋儿。一旦狗拉屎了,她们会随后用塑料袋捡起来,然后,见到垃圾箱以后,再扔到垃圾箱里。有一次,笔者也看到一个披头士的帅哥拉着一条大黑狗,可是,这狗这回真不长脸,半路上忍不住就拉了一地,而且比较希。这下小伙子直耸肩,一直往前走。后面人忍不住大声说,你应该把狗屎捡起来!他又怂了怂肩,没办法,我没带塑料袋,没法拣。确实,不可能用手直接拣啊!真是一个大尴尬!只能等环卫人员来扫啦!

IMG_8860

小鸟成双成对非常普遍,一个在前,另一个紧随其后,那种相亲相爱,还真是令人羡慕呢!

IMG_8872

连狗广场都这么漂亮吗?你真别不信,这树里头就是一个全起来的狗活动的公共场所。所有狗的主人可以把狗放到这里,让它们和别的狗戏耍一下。因此,往往这里狗叫不断。

IMG_8871

猜到这是什么了吗?这是进瓦萨公园之前首先看到的就是马路边的饮水龙头。压中间的把手,水就从顶尖喷出来,就可以对嘴喝了。每年6月份就开始供水。到10月份以后又没水了。年复一年就这样。

IMG_8869

瑞典式过马路,旁若无人。因为只要是绿灯,就不用担心,车为你让路。

IMG_8868

我只想让你看看这蓝天白云真是蓝的贼蓝,白的贼白呀!

IMG_8867

这是瓦萨公园边上的马路。

IMG_8866

左边是公共汽车站。

IMG_8865

看到远处蓝色大巴了吗?那就是斯德哥尔摩的公共汽车,是烧生物燃气的,不释放二氧化碳等温室气体。还有瑞典大公主维多利亚结婚的时候,特意用环保的公共汽车拉亲戚朋友去参加她的婚礼和晚宴的。

IMG_8879

瓦萨公园草坪的绿呀,咋让我想起朱自清了呢?

IMG_8878

没有阴影还真显不出来阳光的灿烂。没有阴影也先不出绿草是那样令人心醉!

IMG_8877

绿草茵茵,蓝天白云,我是醉了!

IMG_8876

狗在右边的小路里边叫,我们照样可以在外面的草坪上休息。

IMG_8875

IMG_8874

这是林荫路,左右都有树,感觉很舒服。

IMG_8873 IMG_8886

一个大树在眼前,两个枝叉分两边。为人遮阴 又遮阳,尽显公园美如画。看树后那一对对人儿,哪有不爱这里的道理呢!这里夏天是这样,冬天下大雪的时候,就是玩儿滑雪板的好地方!

IMG_8885

这条路的左边其实是个敬老院。右边才是儿童游乐的瓦萨公园!

IMG_8884 IMG_8883

看见右边的遮雨蓬了吗?那里其实是跳舞的小舞台。人们可以在那里搞舞会或者其他娱乐活动。孩子坐在那写生也挺好啊!

IMG_8882

IMG_8881

这里是儿童乐园。

IMG_8880 IMG_8892 IMG_8891

瞧,这帮年轻人把这里当成跑步训练基地了。有坡度有难度,正合适啊!

IMG_8890

IMG_8889 IMG_8888

这都是天然石头,天然的树。草是人工种植的。必要的时候,也用塑料网给圈上,等长好了再踩。可以随便踩,没关系是公家的!

IMG_8887

IMG_8901

这边跑步,那边玩游戏呢!看谁扔木头砸得准!

IMG_8900

IMG_8899 IMG_8898

别看房子矮小,都是有雨水收集系统的。这里是学龄前儿童的活动场所。也是孩子们的厕所和喝水,吃饭的地方。婴儿换尿布,热板,喝水都可以在这里,在里边玩儿一会儿也行,妈妈陪着,有各种玩具。去幼儿园以前,可以先在这里练练唱歌。免费的!

IMG_8897

大孩子当然喜欢荡秋千啦或者在石头上跑来跑去,那样才有挑战!

IMG_8893

IMG_8903

IMG_8902

跑完了再压压腿!不然会抽筋的!

IMG_8802

我回家啦!在窗前和爸爸歇一会儿。瓦萨公园是我最喜欢的地方!

英格说,他们的产品主要是成人或儿童欧密嘎OMEGA3胶囊和蓝莓维生素对大脑,心脏和眼睛都有好处。

他说,由于他们选择了世界上环境最干净的水域,挪威水域养殖鳕鱼,因此,OMEGA3的原材料是世界上最纯净的,加上严格的生产程序和技术,NNP获得了美国食品药品管理局FDA的质量认证,也获得了欧盟的GOEM的认证。因此,尽管价格昂贵,与那些从不那么纯净的水域生产出来的产品相比,也是物有所值。

他说,他们希望在中国市场上和瑞典药店市场上都能打开销路。

NNP中国合作伙伴何勇在发布会上介绍说,NNP生产的将康产品主要有两种:一种为Epax的深海鱼油系列,另一种为瑞典特产-野生蓝莓精华。前段时间在中国进行产品发布和试销,结果很受欢迎。

他说,NNP产品系列在瑞典也是健康产品中的贵族,不论是品质还 是其高纯含量比例都比瑞典市面销售的大众化同类产品优越。

产品发布吸引了人们对保健品的兴趣,并对产品的方方面面进行了问答交流。

预计,产品将在九月份在瑞典上市。

浙江日报代表团访问北欧

北欧绿色邮报报道(记者陈雪霏)——由浙江省对外文化交流协会副会长龚吟怡率领的浙江日报报业集团代表团正在北欧进行访问。昨日在瑞典首都斯德哥尔摩的富都阁与《北欧时报》进行了亲切友好的交谈。

SONY DSC

浙江日报报业集团总编辑李丹表示,此次访问的主要目的是要推广浙江日报在海外的传播,尤其是在北欧。

代表团图文介绍了浙江日报报业集团的新App平台,希望通过与华媒的合作来共同促进中瑞之间的友谊和共赢。人们只要通过手机网络就可以看到手机版的新闻时事,不管是在国内,还是在国外。

《北欧时报》常务副社长郑王平,北欧时报外文总编辑和北欧绿色邮报社长陈雪霏和副社长于昕博士参加了会见。

郑王平向客人们简单介绍了瑞典的生活和工作环境以及在瑞典创业的不同寻常的经历。同时他也肩负起了支持《北欧时报》的重担。

《北欧时报》创刊于2007年3月,是在前任中国驻瑞典大使陈明明的倡议下,在华人华侨的努力下,经过八年的努力,得到了大使馆的支持,也凝聚了许多华人华侨的辛勤汗水,尤其是社长何儒,一直在为报纸的生存和发展奔波。会见期间,他没能到场只因他在国内采访。

《北欧时报》从一开始的16开八版的小报,变成了现在比较专业的16版的大报,覆盖整个北欧五国,各大图书馆都有。尽管还有需要进一步完善的地方,但是,在这样艰苦的条件下能够发行3000份也是相当不错的。

据郑王平介绍,在瑞典大约有三万华人华侨,大部分人集中在斯德哥尔摩,哥德堡和马尔默,而首都斯德哥尔摩最多。

会谈期间,双方表示将进一步加强合作,可以互换稿件,互通有无。

代表团成员还包括浙江日报报业集团数字采编中心总编辑檀梅,报业集团图片中心主任徐斌,浙报编辑中心副主任,时事新闻编辑部主任冯晔和浙报杭州分社副社长吴雅茗。

中欧文化协会徒步组举办首次徒步

北欧绿色邮报报道(记者晨曦)--总部在瑞典首都斯德哥尔摩的中欧文化协会6月21日在卡尔贝城堡公园举行首次徒步活动。

IMG_8720

徒步从这里开始。蓝色是最长的路线4公里,然后是白色路线。

IMG_8721

会长陈雪霏说,中欧文化协会自2014年5月成立以来,搞了文艺汇演活动,瑜伽和拉丁舞培训活动。协会里也有很多人喜欢徒步,希望能组织徒步活动。此前,忙于瑜伽和拉丁舞,就组织徒步。现在的快到暑假了,到树林里走步是最好的健身活动。因此,也算是正式启动徒步组活动。协会还会举行美食活动,画展活动和文艺汇演活动。

IMG_8722

蓝天白云,绿草绿树,真是心旷神怡!

IMG_8710

这不就是明信片吗?

IMG_8712

卡尔贝城堡是16世纪就已经建起来了,17世纪瑞典国王卡尔12世买下来,并在这里开办过学校。如今这里是瑞典国防大学的所在地,也是瑞典联合国维和部队的培训基地。在这里可以看到战士们的艰苦而有趣的训练。这里有很多古老的树木,非常宝贵。

春夏秋冬,随着树叶颜色的变化,真是美不胜数,各有千秋。

IMG_8714

参加本次活动的孙凯带着全家从乌普萨拉过来,还带了自己焉得咸鸡蛋,常林带了粽子,赵丽杰带着宝宝,也积极的和大家一起走。人们背着小背包,算是一场演练吧。

身为瑞典弗兰西斯坎朝圣组织的一员,陈雪霏还讲述了徒步的来历。原来,在12世纪十字军东征的时候,战火纷飞,基督徒和伊斯兰教徒圣战十分激烈。在这个战场上却来了一位徒步旅行的人,叫弗兰西斯坎。

IMG_8715

走完步来点儿茶和小吃!

IMG_8716

弗兰西斯坎.阿西西来自意大利。他出身贵族家庭,家里也算是个富商。然而,弗兰西斯坎却不善于经商。他甚至对经商反感。有一天,他突然感觉自己收到耶稣基督的使命,要摒弃一切物质的享受。于是,他走到麻风病人中间,去为他们治病,他帮助穷人。他崇尚和平。听说十字军在打仗,他徒步去充当和平使者。总之,他的精神在整个西欧传播开来,意大利,法国,德国,荷兰,瑞典,西班牙,葡萄牙和英国都有会员。

如今他们每年都要进行背包徒步,一走就是一个星期。吃简单食品,睡地板地铺。自己动手做饭。

IMG_8692

当然,协会的活动目前就是一天或半天,选择大家都喜欢的地方。

参加本次徒步还有赵美淑,于杰,张红霞,邹珊等总共10多个人。大家倡议以后也可以多走几次。
