China possibly uses excessive forex reserves for oil reserves

www.chinanews.cn 2006-04-13 17:30:24

Chinanews, Apr. 13 �C A research team on the national macro-economy under
the State Development and Reform Commission recently suggests that
Chinese government currently need to pay attention to economic changes in
four aspects, the co-existing of over production capacity and over
liquidity, the ever increasing pressure on deflation and unemployment,
and deviation of M1 and M2 money supply growth. The advisory team says
China can consider transforming the excessive foreign exchange reserves
for some national strategic supplies such as oil reserves.
A report from the China Securities Journal said that in the short term,
the recent round of economic boom was over, as major industries, such as
steels, auto, chemistry, and energy production, had begun to slow down in
investment and production prices had started to fall. Over production
capacity has begun to show in these industries and industrial revenues
begun to drop. Investment in real estate market and real estate
consumption have also cooled down significantly.
The research team added that investment by local governments were still
strong at the moment, which became a large adverse force against the
declining market trend.

Great Wall needs more protection

www.chinanews.cn 2006-04-06 15:09:10

Chinanews, Apr. 6 �C Recently, constructors that are building the
expressway from Qingdao to Laiwu in Shandong province, have to inject an
additional 12.5 million yuan of investment in order to change the road
plan to erect a 300-meter-long bridge at Linyi section. The change of the
original design is intended to avoid the Great Wall relic that lies on
the road. Regarding this incident, the People's Daily carried an
editorial, commenting that the change revealed that China right now is
not going to protect the Great Wall section in Shandong with a series of
scientific and comprehensive measures. It also reflects that protection
of the Great Wall on the whole is not good enough.
The Great Wall section in Shandong province is also called ��Qi Great
Wall��, which was built by the Qi state during the Spring and Autumn (770
BC- 476 BC) and the Warring States period (475 BC �C 221 BC), and was one
of the oldest parts of the Great Wall in China. Currently, the existing
section of the Qi Great Wall mostly lies in the northeastern part of
Qishui County in Shandong province and was a national protection relic.
The Qi Great Wall provides valuable information for Chinese scientists to
study the Great Wall culture of the ancient time. However, its location
collides with the building of the Qingdao-Laiwu expressway.
For one time, the Qingdao-Laiwu project was regarded as one overriding
all other projects. In the original plan, the section of the Great Wall
that blocks the construction of the expressway should be pulled down, in
other words, the 2,700-year-old relic would be totally destroyed.
However, constructors changed the original plan later and consulted with
local archeological bureau for a proper solution to it. In the end, they
agreed to change the original plan and instead build a bridge that will
pass over the Great Wall underneath, thus preventing a national relic
from being destroyed.
In recent years, as China's infrastructure construction and urbanization
process speed up amid the country's social and economic development, a
lot of cultural relics are on the verge of extinction. Due to overly
exploitation, many ancient towns, streets, buildings, relics and
sceneries are being destroyed. The Great Wall is no exception, of course,
as many people destroy the bricks or the whole part of the Great Wall, or
make graffiti on it.
In the editorial, the People's Daily says the Great Wall is a reflection
of Chinese people's wisdom and the history of the Chinese nation.
Protection of the Great Wall reflects the protection of our national
spirit.

Astronauts practice space walk for Shenzhou-7

www.chinanews.cn 2006-04-04 16:48:54

When "Shenzhou Seven" is launched, Chinese astronauts will then be able
to walk in space and the space shuttles will conjoin.

Chinanews, April. 4 - China's top person in charge of astronaut training,
director Chen Shanguang from the China Astronauts Science and Research
Training Center said that Chinese astronauts are practicing space walk in
anticipation of the launch of the Shenzhou Seven.
He revealed the information while attending a "Shenzhou Six" exhibition
held in Shanghai.
The "Shenzhou Seven" is scheduled to be launched in 2008, by then
astronauts will be able to walk out of the cabin and practice a series of
activities in space including walking, manipulating a screwdriver or
other tools, installing equipment, etc. These activities are
preliminaries for the future foundation of a space station, Shanghai
local news media quoted experts as saying.
The orbital cabin for "Shenzhou Seven" will bear a different design from
"Shenzhou Six", as the "Shenzhou Seven" orbital cabin will have room for
astronauts to release all air pressure before they can walk out of the
cabin to do the space walking.
Design of the astronaut clothes for the "Shenzhou Seven" will also be
different. The clothes the astronaut wears should supply him with enough
air and liquid electricity so that he can live, work and communicate in
space properly. In other words, the astronaut and the clothes he wears
will be like a small satellite roving in space.

China: no further one-off yuan adjustment

www.chinanews.cn 2006-03-29 14:06:55

Chinanews, Beijing, Mar.29 (By Wei Xi) - China's central bank spokesman
Li Chao said on the 28th when responding to a reporter's question about
currency that the RMB will not have another officially announced one-off
adjustment. Instead, it will fluctuate on its own in accordance with
currency supply and demand and major world cross rates changes, under the
current managed floating currency regime.
China implemented last July 21st the managed floating currency regime
based on market supply and demand and referenced to a basket of other
currencies. In these past eight months, the RMB fell and rose against the
U.S. dollar, fluctuated in both directions and its flexibility obviously
strengthened. Especially since the implementation of market-maker system,
the RMB's adroitness was raised by a large margin. Up through this March
21st, the RMB versus the U.S. dollar has cumulatively risen 3.09%.
The Central Bank said that China will further perfect the reform of the
RMB currency regime, develop the forex markets and increase the RMB's
flexibility and raise financial institutions' self-assessment and risk
control capabilities.
Central Bank spokesman Li Chao said today that due to current existing
system and in accordance with market changes, the RMB has the window and
the capability of moving up or down on its own. Therefore, the RMB will
no longer have another officially announced one-off adjustment. Instead,
under the current floating currency regime, it will freely fluctuate
according to market supply and demand and changes in major international
cross rates.
