Taiwan China ECFA free-trade pact

Taiwan China ECFA free-trade pact
28.06.2010 11:25:01 Economic Co-operation Framework Agreement (ECFA) will comprise the most significant cross-strait agreement between China and Taiwan due to be signed on June 29th in Chongqing.The site of the Kuomintang’s headquarters during the Chinese civil war—will lower tariffs immediately on more than 800 goods and services and otherwise set out ways in which the two sides will regulate and liberalize trade over the next several years.

(live-PR.com) - Taiwan's chief negotiator on cross-Strait affairs Chiang Pin-kung arrived here Monday for talks with the Chinese mainland, at which the two sides are expected to reach a hugely significant and long-awaited economic pact.

Mr Ma’s Kuomintang party (KMT) has seen recent setbacks in local elections. The DPP in ballot battle an uphill task to regain power, but if it does


win the presidency in 2012 then cross-strait tensions, currently at their lowest ebb in over half a century, are sure to surge again. DPP said 100,000 demonstrators took part in Saturday’s demonstration, police put their numbers mere modest 32,000, adding that the protesters’ ranks diluted out considerably after Taipei’s humid, leaden skies broke out with a thunderstorm. Thousands standing in torrential rain and wearing a farmer’s straw hat, the DPP’s chairwoman, Tsai Ing-wen, told a cheering crowd, the pact would benefit big conglomerates by victimizing small businesses, enlarging the gap between rich and poor. “Our relatives, friends, even the next generation will be its victims.” Ms Tsai assured the crowd on Saturday that if the government continues to quash referendums the KMT will be taught a lesson at the polls.

Beijing the thinking is that by offering economic sweeteners to the renegade island, China can engender goodwill among the Taiwanese. China to lower tariffs for 539 categories worth US$13.8 billion in trade to the Taiwanese industries which are hardest-hit from the ASEAN-China agreement, including textiles and petrochemicals. China to open up 11 service categories, including its banking sector. Taiwanese banks in China will be permitted to do business in renminbi a year sooner than other foreign banks are allowed; this is, essentially, the same treatment China gives Hong Kong's banks. In a bid to please politically-sensitive Taiwanese farmers, the deal includes 18 categories from the farming and fishing sectors, even though China has promised it will not push Taiwan for freer trade of its own agricultural goods.
Democratic Progress Party (DPP) said Monday that it respects the decision of the Taiwan Solidarity Union (TSU) to file a new application Wednesday calling for a referendum on a landmark cross-Taiwan Strait trade pact, which is scheduled to be signed Tuesday.

The chairman of the Straits Exchange Foundation, Chiang Ping-kun, said the pact known as the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement ECFA was the most comprehensive deal ever to be forged by the two sides. Mr Chiang was speaking before leaving for Chongqing, where the agreement will be signed tomorrow. The pact will lead to preferential tariffs for more than 500 Taiwanese product categories stretching from petrochemicals to textiles. It will apply to about half as many mainland items.

2010-06-28 06:05:28 - 28 June 2010 - Nksagar - India and Canada have signed a Civilian Nuclear Cooperation Agreement that will enable the supply of nuclear material and technology to India by Canada. The agreement was signed in Toronto by the Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh with his Canadian counterpart Stephen Harper.

Addressing a joint press conference after the signing of the agreement with the Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Dr Manmohan Singh said the nuclear material that Canada will supply under the agreement, will be fully safeguarded under the terms of the agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency.

The Canadian Prime Minister said India is very forthcoming with safeguards and he
has absolute confidence on those matters.India and Canada also signed three MoUs in the areas of Earth Science and Mining, Culture and Higher Education.

G20 Summit that concluded in Toronto committed to taking concerted actions to sustain the global economic recovery process, creates jobs and to achieve stronger, more sustainable and more balanced growth. The Summit declaration issued at the end of the Summit said that the actions will be differentiated and tailored to national circumstances. The Summit has also eventually agreed to take different paths for cutting budget deficits and making there banking systems safer under the existing circumstances of an uneven and fragile economic recovery in many countries.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh told the G-20 Summit in Toronto that the global recovery "is still very fragile" and therefore there was need to give primacy to consolidating the recovery while taking measured steps to deal with the sovereign debt problems.The economist-Prime Minister also called for firmly resisting threats of new protectionist measures in industrialised countries and existing barriers to trade, especially those affecting developing countries.

There is no unanimity on when and how to withdraw the stimulus for global recovery that was agreed in London last year at the Summit, the fourth of its kind in two years starting from Washington at the height of the financial crisis in 2008, with the theme "Recovery: New Beginnings".
Countries like Britain, France and Germany want a quick end to the stimulus so that government deficit does not shoot through the roof but nations like India and the US are favouring a calibrated exit.

Julia Gillard ascend Rudd descend

Nksagar -24 June 2010- Julia Gillard now set to become Australia's first female prime minister after Kevin Rudd's support within the party dilutes .JULIA Gillard this morning is well tipped become Australia's first woman prime minister after she offered her stake against Kevin Rudd last night with go for a vote on the leadership.

Meeting of Labor MPs at 9am today to decide Mr Rudd's fate, after a day of melodrama in which key unions and factional bosses suddenly withdrew their support and fell in behind Ms Gillard.Announcing the leadership spill late last night,a defiant Mr Rudd told a media conference in Canberra: ''I was elected by the people of Australia as Prime Minister of Australia. I was elected to do that job. I intend to continue doing that job.'' Julia Gillard challenges Kevin Rudd for the Labor leadership.

His chances of survival feeble, with a swathe of influential backbenchers and ministers including Treasurer Wayne Swan,Trade Minister Simon Crean tipped to back Ms Gillard,this morning, Environment Protection Minister Peter Garrett threw his support behind Gillard, although not able to vote because,currently in Agadir, Morocco for the International Whaling Commission's annual meeting.The party's right faction was pushing for Mr Swan to take over as deputy prime minister if Ms Gillard wins the ballot. The appointment would in part be a sop for Queensland, Mr Rudd's home state, where Labor on present polling is facing severe losses.Victorian backbenchers Darren Cheeseman and Mike Symon were also expected to support Ms Gillard. She had the numbers comfortably, perhaps by about 70 to 40.At his news conference, Mr Rudd conceded that he had lost the support of factions, but insisted the Australian people, not the factional leaders, had made him Prime Minister.
He promised that if he survived, the government would ''not be lurching to the right on asylum seekers, as some … have counselled us to do''.''Also, on the question of climate change we'll be moving to a timetable on emissions trading which is of the government's decision - contrary to the view of some on when that best occurs.''Ms Gillard confirmed she would be a candidate but had no other comment.

With an intense overnight lobbying, Rudd camp deeply pessimistic despite holding the support of several key figures. Finance Minister Lindsay Tanner and Infrastructure Minister Anthony Albanese were both backing Mr Rudd.Small Business Minister Craig Emerson was also sticking with Mr Rudd, saying, ''I'm voting for Kevin because I don't believe it's in the interests of the Labor Party to bring down a first term Labor Prime Minister''.

The crisis came into light last night at a meeting in the Prime Minister's office attended by Mr Rudd, Ms Gillard, Mr Albanese, Mr Tanner, Mr Swan and Defence Minister John Faulkner.Ms Gillard has previously repeatedly declared she would not run for the leader's position but the push for her to take charge initiated by senators -union leaders of the Victorian, New South Wales and South Australian right and the Victorian left faction.Victorian Parliamentary Secretary Bill Shorten, Victorian Senator David Feeney, Melbourne Ports member Michael Danby and South Australian Senator Don Farrell from the right were involved, as was Industry Minister Kim Carr from the left, Mr Shorten was at a Canberra restaurant working two phones and striking names from a list.NSW powerbroker Senator Mark Arbib and Senator Feeney went to Ms Gillard asking her to stand.

Julia Gillard furious about a newspaper report that Mr Rudd's chief of staff, Alister Jordan, had been canvassing to assess Mr Rudd's support,because he was not sure of Ms Gillard's loyalty.The move came as the government was starting to try to clear the decks in the run up to the federal election, with a deal on the controversial mining tax imminent.The powerful Australian Workers Union last night threw its support behind Ms Gillard.The union's national president, Bill Ludwig, said: ''She's got some chance - he's got none.''He's never recovered from the climate conference in Copenhagen.''As other ministers were meeting Mr Rudd, Mr Crean, a confidant of Ms Gillard, said: ''I am not supportive of a leadership change, I am not involved in any discussions. I am urging solidarity behind the leadership.''Communications Minister Stephen Conroy, a senior Victorian right figure, said: ''I'm not involved.''

Mr Rudd was asked yesterday morning about the report that Mr Jordan had been canvassing Labor MPs about support for him in the role.He said that Mr Jordan's job was ''to be in constant contact with members of the parliamentary party and with ministers.These are the sorts of conversations which happen every day and have done so ever since I got this job - and frankly, in a slightly different way when I became the leader of the opposition. It's just situation normal,'' Mr Rudd said.

With Labor MPs thinking that leadership pressure on Mr Rudd ended or diluted after Tuesday's quiet coterie meet. Coterie members had raised various issues but had not questioned his leadership.Parliament proceeds meet ends today before its long winter recess will not meet again before the election. Mr Rudd is to leave tomorrow for the G20 meeting in Toronto.There is an ALP national executive meeting in Canberra tomorrow. Key members of the executive start arriving in the capital today.Labor nationally ahead in two-party terms, had the government in deep trouble in marginal seats in Queensland and Sydney's western suburbs.There have been constant criticisms of Mr Rudd's leadership style, and his failure to sell the government's policies to the electorate.

Nksagar New Delhi -2010-06-20 05:57:40 - Pakistan Cricketers played psychology card on the field, India did lost their nerve on field and lost Gambhir wicket but Harbhajan Singh 15 not out turned to be the hero at the Rangiri International stadium,his aggression with bat pave the way for India to enter the final moments to snatch a sensational three wicket victory over arch-rivals Pakistan.

Chasing a competitive 267 for victory, Gautam Gambhir made 83 off 97 and Dhoni contributed 56 off 71 scored half centuries while Suresh Raina 34 off 27 brought India closer to win and Harbhajan provided the neat finish win.His firepower down the order to see India overwhelm the target convincingly with a ball to spare at Dambulla yesterday, India snatched
a sensational three- wicket victory over arch-rivals Pakistan and sailed into the final of the Asia Cup cricket tournament.

Pakistan batting first Salman Butt 74 and Kamran Akmal 51 made contrasting half centuries before India made a remarkable comeback to bowl out Pakistan for 267.Praveen Kumar (3/53), Zaheer Khan (2/41) and Harbhajan (2/47) were the pick of the Indian bowlers, sharing eight wickets between them.It was war minus the guns as two bitter rivals fought tooth and nail for supremacy.Fortunes balancing the two bitter neighbours game fluctuated with Pakistan dominating at two stages in the match and India coming back strongly twice.

India's chase, started on a slow pace with attacking Virender Sehwag limping on field could muster only 10 off 32 finding runs hard to come by before edging one to Kamran Akmal off Abdul Razzaq. Virat Kohli 18 too fell cheaply, leaving it upto Gambhir and Dhoni to build the platform for the victory with the 98-run third-wicket stand. An ugly babble -spat between Gambhir, who survived a close call for a catch behind the wicket off Saeed Ajmal, and Kamran Akmal, the game was a perfect boost which the ODI cricket needed, more so at a time when the Twenty20 format has stolen the thunder.

Gambhir and Dhoni mixed aggression with caution to slowly but assuredly take India towards their first victory against the arch-rivals in nine months.The duo ran hard between the wickets, often converting ones into two to the chagrin of the Pakistani fielders. When the bowlers begged to be punished, they hit hard and clean, clinically bisecting to collect boundaries. Gambhir, oozing with confidence from his 82 against Bangladesh, was the more adventurous of the duo, often stepping out of the crease to attack the spinners.He enjoyed a reprieve at 69 when Aamer spilled a simple offer at long off.The left-handed opener had century for the asking, fade away the opportunity, losing his citadel as he made room to back cut Saeed Ajmal.

Dhoni skipper knock a confident play the moment he faced first ball fell into the simmering cauldron.He stoutly defended when the bowlers commanded respect, smashed them with disdain as they faltered in line and length, once heaving the dreaded Shoaib Akthar over the ropes at wide long-on.

First with Rohit Sharma (22) and then along with Raina, Dhoni seemed determined to see his side home but he played on a Shoaib Malik delivery in the 43rd over, which triggered panic among the Indians. Raina was cut out at his task as he hit two sixes and two boundaries during his 27-ball stay to take India closer towards the victory.Needing seven runs in the last over, Indian lost Raina to an unnecessary run out in the second ball of the over.

Then there on left to Harbhajan to take up the responsibility and the off-spinner took the opportunity with both hands to see India home with a ball to spare and avenge their 56-run defeat to the arch-rivals in the Champions Trophy in South Africa last September.Earlier, opting to bat in the do-or-die match, Butt constructed two substantial partnerships at the start of the innings first a 71-run opening stand with Imran Farhat (25) and then shared 73 runs with Shoaib Malik 39 before three quick wickets in the middle overs put brakes on the Pakistani scoring.

Pakistan were cruising at the 144 for one in the 29th over and looked good to make a total in excess of 290 before Indian bowlers scalped three wickets in just 17 balls to storm back into the game.The wickets slowly but assuredly tightened the noose around the Pakistan middle-order, who failed to get going on a slow and low Dambulla wicket. Pakistan got off to a solid start with Butt and Indian Cricket League-returnee Imran Farhat posting 71 runs for the first wicket.

The openers were right on top of the Indian attack when Harbhajan produced the much-needed breakthrough, having comeback man Farhat smartly snaffled by Virender Sehwag at the first slip.

But from there on India had to wait for 13 overs for another wicket as Butt and former captain Shoaib Malik, who is returning to the national team after three months following the removal of his 12-month ban, batted with rare aplomb to set the platform for a big total.The duo rotated the strike to upset the line of the spinners and occasionally scored a boundary to keep the score card ticking.But just as Pakistan began to assert themselves in the middle, left-arm pacer Zaheer Khan went through Mali's
defence to give India the breakthrough.

To add to Pakistan's dismay, Butt followed suit in the next over. He fell to a spectacular piece of fielding from Ranvindra Jadeja on his follow through.
Butt, who has scored five of his eight ODI hundreds against India, struck nine boundaries during his 85-ball stay.As if the double blow was not enough, Umar Amin (5) was brilliantly caught by Virat Kohli off Harbhajan four overs later but inspite of that Pakistan were in a good position at 159 for four in the 33rd over.
But then Umar Akmal (21) and skipper Shahid Afridi, who asserted himself in the middle with a towering straight six off Harbhajan, steadied the Pakistani ship with a 37-run fifth-wicket stand that came off just 29 balls.Just when it was time to step on the accelerator, Umar Akmal was caught behind by Dhoni off Ravindra Jadeja.Afridi too perished in the 44th over, trapped in front of the wicket by Praveen but not before hitting two fours and a six.

However, a late cameo from Kamran Akmal helped Pakistan go beyond the 250-mark.The wicket-keeper batsman struck three fours and as many sixes to pile up 40 runs in the last five overs and help Pakistan reach the competitive total

Rehabilitation Bhopal victims or punish Anderson

2010-06-14 06:04:51 - Anderson exodus controversy is enlarging political issue which will be milestone in Indian politics because of lack of care to victims of Carbide crisis which happened on 2-3 Dec night 1984 this bhopal crisis diluted since nation in this year has witnessed the greater tragedy of Indira assassination 31 Oct 1984.

The Corporate responsibility of diligent care in handling the health hazardous material in professional way needs to reevaluated and the monitoring of the same needs to be strengthen by both states and Federal structures.Like Union Carbide there are various companies and one ideal company must help others to follow the way in handling and maintenance of the project.

We are in process of importing civil nuclear energy which too needs safety of e -waste for their better handling the government laws are needed to place the energy production to its bye product processing up to its e waste .The deadly methyl isocyanate MIC gas leak from Union Carbide’s Bhopal plant which resulted in killing 20000 people's and their legal heir need of the hour of their rehabilitation and the second issue of Anderson punishment is viewed in today's politics with rhetoric blame game and score points.

Pranab Mukherjee has said former Chief Minister Arjun Singh took the decision on then Union Carbide CEO’s exit keeping in view the law and order situationThe statement made by Mr.Arjun Singh as Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister on December 8, 1984 that law and order situation was deteriorating. There was mass frenzy and therefore it was thought necessary to move out Warren Anderson, a news five days after the Bhopal disaster had been published in a newspaper he told reporters in Kolkata on Sunday. “It is very clear from the statement of Arjun Singh, which was published in The Times of India on December 8, 1984, that the law and order situation in Bhopal would have deteriorated and people’s frenzy and temper were running high. Therefore, it was thought necessary to send him (Anderson) out of Bhopal he said. Mukherjee said, “It was necessary to take him out of Bhopal” to save him from public wrathThe focus of the state administration at the time was immediate rehabilitation of gas victims. The victims and the affected families had to be the priority then’ Mukherjee partly defended the decision. Arjun Singh himself has not come out with any statement to either deny or confirm the allegations but a close political aide of his had said “his hands were tied

Alexander had hinted that Rajiv Gandhi may have had a role in the release of Anderson as the then prime minister could have agreed with the decision on letting him off.

Mr Mukherjee had on Saturday said that the government will still try to seek the extradition of AndersonWe are trying to extradite Anderson he had said. But legal experts are of the view that it will not be easy to extradite Anderson because of “lapse of time Soli Sorabjee, it is futile to make a request. “I had asked the ministry to obtain opinion of a reputable US legal firm that dealt with the matter.US attorney gave some reasons, one of them being lapse of time. They sought evidence complying the US extradition law. They didn’t think the requisite evidence was available for extraditing Anderson. It would be futile to make a request now Mr Sorabjee had said.

Moily said there was need for a law to fix responsibility on persons responsible for disasters such as the Bhopal gas tragedy.He said the CBI which investigated the worst ever industrial tragedy that claimed thousands of lives booked cases under IPC section 302, but the supreme court converted it into 304 A (culpable homicide which provides for lesser punishment). "Unfortunately the judiciary did it," he said.

Moily said the Government was working on codifying laws to ensure that disasters were treated as disasters only.He also said the Government was working on a set of guidelines that would facilitate fast tracking of cases related to major disasters in the light of the Bhopal case."Our courts are very conservative. Hence we are working on new set of laws to deal with such disasters", Moily said. Referring to the case against former chief of Union Carbide Warren Anderson, he said it had not been closed. "We are pursuing it."

Oppoosition this reacting to Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee's statement, CPI(M) leader Mrs. Brinda Karat has said that Anderson should have been jailed instead. She termed newly formed GoM is totally meaningless and urged the government to come clean on the issue. Our correspondent reports that the opposition has been pressing the government to reveal with who had allowed Anderson's exit, ruling congress leaders had been urging Arjun Singh to speak out on the controversy.

Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi was joined by the CPI M leader Brinda Karat urging the government to come clean on the controversy. They also called upon the congress chief to break her silence on the issue.

BJP president Nitin Gadkari had asked the Congress to come clear on its role in allegedly providing safe passage to AndersonWhy is the Congress silent on the issue? Why is Arjun Singh silent? Why has the country not been informed about what happened?The silence is eloquent BJP spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad told reporters, quoting GadkariAnderson was booked under Section 304 IPC which is a non-bailable offense. The government helped the main culprit in the accident in which 20,000 people died. Congress must apologise to the nation Prasad said.

Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s “For us, all options are open including re-investigation of the gas leakage case. We are discussing it with legal experts The MP state government has constituted a five-member committee under the chairmanship of additional solicitor general Vivek Tankha to look into the trial court judgement and examine all legal aspects including any fresh evidence.

US on Saturday said it is prepared to give "fair consideration" to any fresh request from India for extradition of the company's former chief Warren Anderson over the 1984 gas disaster."We have an extradition treaty with India. And if India makes an extradition request to us, we will give it fair consideration," State Department spokesman P J Crowley said.If the government of India makes such a request, the US will "carefully evaluate" it, he told reporters in response to a question.

G-20 FM Meet talks on prudential regulation

G-20 FM Meet talks on prudential regulation
2010-06-05 14:59:43 - Republic of Korea is honored to chair the Group of Twenty in 2010.G-20 Finance Ministers' and Central Bank Governors' Meeting, June 3-5 in Busan in South Korea, the ministers and central bankers from the world's leading economies said excessive budget deficits should be tackled immediately.

With debt crisis hitting the recovery process in some parts of Europe, the G-20 finance ministers resolved to put government finances in better shape. The joint communique, issued at the end of the two-day meet at Busan in South Korea today warned that high debts could derail the growth process. It called for contribution from financial sector players to the
measures taken by governments to prop up sagging economies. The grouping of 20 developed and developing countries highlighted the need to rein in high fiscal deficits of governments as they are making financial markets volatile.

This FM's meeting sets the agenda for a summit of G20 leaders in Toronto on 26-27 June. A global bank tax argued by the US and Europe, but opposed by India and other developing nations, as well as Canada and Australia. Agreed on transparency, regulation and supervision for hedge funds, credit rating agencies, compensation practices and over-the-counter derivatives.

It is cautioned that the measures to control fiscal deficits and prop up growth should be customized. It further said the countries with high fiscal deficit should speed up the process of reining the gap between government expenditure and receipts. Indian finance minister Pranab Mukherjee said at the meeting that the countries with high fiscal deficits should start announcing exit from stimulus measures now, while others can stagger it for a while. As the financial meltdown was the key cause of global economic crisis, the communique called for further strengthening of banks' balance sheets and better corporate governance of financial firms. However, with India, Australia and Canada opposed to the idea of global bank tax, the issue was not directly referred to in the communique. The communique also supported New Delhi's stand on prudential regulation on financial markets on improving transparency regulation and supervision of hedge funds, credit rating agencies.

Naoto Kan Japan’s prime minister

Naoto Kan Japan’s prime minister
2010-06-04 09:33:23 - Nksagar: New Delh i- June 04,2010 - Former finance minister Naoto Kan the Japan's parliament elected its new leader Friday to head the government. after he won an overwhelming victory in the ruling Democratic Party of Japan’s presidential election.

Emperor Akihito is to appoint Kan Japan’s 94th premier later Friday.
Kan came into politics from the civil liberties movement and made a name for him in 1996 when, as health minister, he led a campaign to bring a scandal over HIV-tainted blood products to light.

Kan served as finance minister and deputy prime minister in outgoing Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama’s cabinet.Naoto
Kan Kan vowed to revitalize Japan's economy, slipping in the red since fiscal crisis and the investment bubble collapsed in the early 1990s.

"For the past 20 years, the Japanese economy has been at a standstill," said Kan. "Growth has stopped. Young people can't find jobs. This is not a natural phenomenon. It resulted from policy mistakes."I believe we can achieve a strong economy, strong finances and strong social welfare all at the same time," he said, pledging to reduce Japan's huge public debt which is nearing 200 per cent of gross domestic product.

On foreign policy, Kan pointed at the threat posed by communist North Korea, the isolated and nuclear-armed regime that has been blamed for the deadly sinking of a South Korean warship in March."Japan has a lot of problems, including the North Korean issue," said Kan, stressing that US-Japanese ties remain the "cornerstone" of foreign policy.

He also said he would maintain Japan's goal to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 25 per cent by 2020 from 1990 levels, one of the most ambitious targets of any country, and to seek an EU-style Asian community in future.

Kan widely expected to succeed Yukio Hatoyama on Friday, first as president of the ruling centre-left Democratic Party of Japan and then, after a parliamentary vote, as Prime Minister.Tokyo stocks rose more than three per cent today, driven in part by news Kan was likely to take over as premier, brokers said.
