PORT-AU-PRINCE, Jan. 14 (Xinhua) -- A wood board improvised as a table with all medicine on it -- this is a "mobile hospital" the Chinese rescue team was able to set up to treat those injured in Haiti's capital city Port-au-Prince after the 7.0-magnitude earthquake hit the impoverished Caribbean country on Tuesday.     A large number of injured Haitians have stood in line waiting to be treated by the Chinese doctors on the plaza in front of the quake-affected Prime Minister's Office building. Members of a Chinese emergency rescue team inspect the collapsed building of the headquarters of the UN Stabilization Mission in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Jan. 14, 2010. The Chinese emergency rescue team arrived in Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince early Thursday local time, to help the rescue operation after an earthquake in which up to 100,000 people are feared dead and eight Chinese are still missing. Five patients at a time were carried to the humble "mobile hospital" by volunteers. Most of them suffered physical traumas and the long-time exposed wounds were infected in many of the cases, Hou Shike, chief doctor of the rescue team told Xinhua on Thursday.     The Chinese doctors expressed their sorrow for the lack of medication supplies in Haiti, a country believed to be the poorest of the western hemisphere.     "Doctors and medicine are of great need here," Hou said in a painful tone. With each "Merci (Thank you)" from a cured patient, the medicine that the rescuer brought from China becomes less.     "Now we see the patients are still able to move. But when the infection gets worse, the consequences will be critical," Hou said, apparently worried.     "I hope there are more rescue teams joining us," he said.     China's rescue team arrived in Port-au-Prince on early Thursday morning, with 50 members of the International Rescue Team of China, three rescuer dogs and more than 20 tons of equipment and humanitarian aid.     The Chinese government officials from the Foreign Ministry and Public Security Ministry and media also arrived on a chartered plane.

Beijing, Feb. 8 -- China's banks will outpace their peers in India and Indonesia, the best performers in Asia's banking industry over the past decade, to deliver the highest returns over the next five to 10 years, analysis firm CLSA Ltd said.The top eight performers among Asian banks over the past decade were all from India, with gains of 400 percent to 3,000 percent, CLSA said in a research report released today.Indonesian banks ranked second over a three-to-five-year period, as no data was available for 10 years, the report said.Shenzhen Development Bank Co, China's first commercial bank to launch an IPO and get listed on Shenzhen Stock Exchange (in 1987), is expected to show a more than eight-fold increase in net profit for 2009, boosted by lower provisions for bad loans and higher net interest and fee income, the Wall Street Journal saidThe two countries recorded the highest credit growth, as India's loans increased 622 percent over the past 10 years, followed by 508 percent growth in Indonesia, Daniel Tabbush and Suangsuda Sinsadok, analysts at CLSA, said in the report.That shows "positive" implications for China's banks given the nation's 326 percent increase in loan growth over that period, they wrote in their analysis."Where China stock price data is only recent, we can at least assume that the fact that those banks are returning the third-highest loan growth over the past five and 10 years can in fact mean strong total returns over the long term," the analysts wrote.China's loan growth of 79 percent was the highest over the past three years, according to the report by CLSA, which is "overweight" on the nation's bank stocks as well as those in India and Indonesia.
