Trade in power and money harms the nation

[2014-07-15 07:20]

When the corruption case of Gu Junshan, former deputy head of the logistics department of the People's Liberation Army, was made public earlier this year, I was shocked by the fact, revealed by insiders, that the lieutenant general and veteran Communist Party member "never believed in the political creed" of the atheist party but instead "worshipped ghosts and deities".

Violence breeds violence

[2014-07-15 07:20]

ISRAEL LAUNCHED ITS NOW WEEK-OLD assault on the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip believing that the intimidating barrage would bring peace. But instead of bringing Hamas to its knees, the bloodshed may sink the Israelis deeper in a vicious circle of violent interaction, not only with Hamas, but the Palestinians as a whole.

Both Israel and Hamas defiant

[2014-07-15 07:20]

Through its military action, Israel mainly aims at deterring Hamas, so that it dare not or cannot launch rockets from the north of Gaza; that's why they are relying on air strikes and trying not to get drawn into a ground battle.

BRICS must go for a 'Rio Consensus'

[2014-07-15 07:20]

Conveniently scheduled at the end of the World Cup, the sixth BRICS summit presents the leaders of five emerging economies a truly historic opportunity, not least because it is likely to see the establishment of a new development bank and reserve currency pool arrangement.

Govt must keep public buses safe

Last Friday, a suspect surnamed Chen tried to set a bus on fire in Changsha, Hunan province, but failed, confessing he was unemployed and did so to "enjoy free meals behind bars". The incident happened just five days after the Hangzhou bus fire. On July 5, 32 passengers suffered burns and injuries when a suspect set fire to a bus in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province.

Slow but steady approach yields fruit

[2014-07-14 07:29]

The sixth summit of BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) this week is expected to take the first concrete step in showcasing its system shaping capacities and skills. Among other deliberations on evolving a new global financial order, BRICS leaders are expected to launch two new institutions - a development bank, which some are calling a mini-World Bank and a contingent reserve arrangement, which is also being described as a mini-IMF. Both these would mark a drift away from the monopoly of the US-dominated multilateral lending agencies of the G7 economies and herald a paradigm shift in global economic decision-making.

Targeting roots of corruption

[2014-07-14 07:29]

WITH 16 VICE-MINISTERIAL OR HIGHER LEVEL government officials placed under investigation for abuse of power in the past more than six months and no sign of such momentum subsiding, no one can doubt the top leadership's resolve to tackle corruption.
