BEIJING, Aug. 29 (Xinhua) -- China's limits on the use of plastic bags cut crude oil consumption by 3 million tonnes per year, according to the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC).     Since June 1, 2008, all Chinese retailers, including supermarkets, department stores and groceries, no longer provided free plastic shopping bags. In addition, China banned ultra-thin plastic bags, or those thinner than 0.025 mm.     China is trying to cut the use of plastic bags in a bid to reduce energy consumption and polluting emissions.     The plastic bag limits could save about 2.4 million to 3.0 million tonnes of crude oil every year and cut 7.6 million to 9.6 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions every year, the NDRC said.     The NDRC said it would further implement the regulations and inspect execution of the ban nationwide.     Retailers who did not list shopping bags on the receipts or continued to provide free plastic shopping bags would be fined from 5,000 yuan (732.06 U.S. dollars) to 10,000 yuan, according to the State Administration for Industry and Commerce.

The region had organized experts to do the translation work and the booklets would soon be distributed to farmers and herdsmen across the region, he added.

BEIJING, July 31 -- China can expect to be a major target of rising trade protectionism - particularly from the United States and India - as the world struggles to recover from the global financial crisis, the Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) said Thursday.    The crisis has pushed trade protectionist cases to a historical high.     "The US is abusing trade protectionist tools to help its own industries tide over the economic slowdown. The loss for Chinese businesses is huge," said Zhou Xiaoyan, deputy director of the China Bureau of Fair Trade for Imports & Exports.     As a consequence, China will have an even harder time than it does now, encountering anti-dumping, anti-subsidy and special protection cases, officials said.     From last September to this June, the main World Trade Organization members, including the US and European nations, launched 77 cases worth .8 billion against China, increasing the number by 112 percent from a year earlier.     Zhou said, moreover, that due to the sharp competitiveness of Chinese products and to the advantage it has of cheap labor costs, sufficient funds and high-quality technology, the country will be targeted for some time.     The fair trade bureau, which is under MOFCOM, is responsible for dealing with trade protectionist cases.     Cases centering on green barriers, such as a carbon tariff measure that the US might launch against developing nations to protect its businesses, will be another hot trend.     China has especially been facing trade protectionist measures related to labor-intensive categories.     The US and India have been among the most aggressive in the rising wave of protectionism, officials said.     In April, for example, the US launched an anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigation of oil-well steel tubing worth .2 billion, one of the largest ever for China.     And also in April, the US launched a case against Chinese tire makers valued at about .2 billion, also the largest such case for China.     The tire case, if approved by President Barack Obama in the fall, could spark a series of such cases by other nations.     "The US has been a leader in launching measures against China," said Wang Rongjun, a professor at the Institute of American Studies of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.     "The US," Wang said, "expects to transfer part of its economic slowdown to China, which is believed to be the quickest to recover."     China and the US are each other's second-largest trade partner. The two nations have stressed since late 2008 that they have been fighting trade protectionism, including at the China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue held in Washington this week.     And in the case of India, it now has the most cases pending against China - from last September to June, it accounted for about 40 percent of the total. The cases cover a wide range of products, including textile, steel and chemicals.     "As newly emerging nations are being brought directly into competing against China, the upward trend will continue," Zhou said.     Despite falling exports, China still holds the largest share of labor-intensive products in the American and European markets, which threatens Indian businesses.     "Compared with the US, India is far from reasonable," said Fu Donghui, managing director of the Beijing Allbright Law Firm, which deals with anti-dumping and anti-subsidy cases.     "The Indians find any opportunity to challenge the Chinese. As long as there is any call from an Indian enterprise, the Indian government will launch an investigation, even without research."     The MOFCOM plans to focus on cases involving the US and India. "We expect to find out the reasons behind that growth and learn how to avoid them in the future," Zhou said.     For years, the Chinese government shied away from appealing to the WTO for help in battling trade protectionist measures.     "The government should have actively appealed to the WTO to prevent foreign nations from abusing its rights," Fu said.     China will now use the WTO tools to prevent its businesses from being hurt by foreign counterparts, but, nonetheless, it will be prudent, Zhou said.

The two countries have established all-weather friendship and Strategic Partnership of Cooperation.     Pakistan has always shown understanding and support for China on major issues concerning our core interests and we highly appreciate that, said Wang.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4 (Xinhua) -- Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has congratulated the Chinese people on their "unbelievable accomplishments" over the past 60 years, saying that China's modern transformation is an "extraordinary historic event." "If anyone had predicted to me in 1971 what China looks like in2009, I would have thought he was dreaming... but you have made a reality out of these dreams, " Kissinger said in a recent interview with Xinhua at his New York office on the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, which falls on Oct. 1.     Kissinger, who helped pave the way for the normalization of U.S.-China relations in 1979, said the 30-year-old bilateral relationship has grown remarkably. Former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger receives an interview with Xinhua at his New York office, the United States, on Oct. 1, 2009. Kissinger has congratulated the Chinese people on their "unbelievable accomplishments" over the past 60 years, saying that China's modern transformation is an "extraordinary historic event."    "In all the years that I have seen the Sino-American relationship, I have never seen such warmth on both sides," he said.     Kissinger said now is time for the two countries to "rebalance" their respective roles in the relationship due to their changed national power in a global context.     "The world that originally saw the Chinese-American relationship was different from the world today," he said. "In that sense, both sides really have to rebalance the relationship."     The United States needs to take into account the growing role China is playing, while China needs to adjust itself to assume bigger responsibilities, Kissinger said.     Meanwhile, cooperation remains a key solution to the global challenges, he added.     "The United States and China should have a very close relationship," Kissinger said. "They should constantly exchange ideas, so when they go into an international forum like the G20, they have parallel positions and can work together."     Energy and environment remain two major long-term challenges the world has to face, while nations worldwide have yet to coordinate in the globalized economic system, he said.     It is "the imperative of our time" that China and the United States cooperate on these global challenges, he said.     The Group of 20, or G20, should become an inclusive platform for international political and economic affairs for "the next few decades," he noted.

WUHAN, Aug. 27 (Xinhua) -- East Star Airlines, the debt-laden private airline based in central China's Wuhan City, officially went bankrupt after its restructuring application was rejected Thursday.     The Intermediate People's Court in Wuhan City said the plan submitted by the East Star Group and ChinaEquity was unfeasible and failed to meet the conditions for a legal restructuring.     ChinaEquity, an investment company founded in 1999 in Beijing, had promised to invest 200 million to 300 million yuan (29 million to 44 million U.S. dollars) for the restructuring plan.     However, it did not specify the source of the funding and failed to provide certificates and documents, and lacked measures to protect creditors, the court said.     The court said East Star Airlines had no operating income in 2008, while ChinaEquity recorded 470,000 yuan in main business income and a 187,477-yuan deficit last year. File photo taken on May 19, 2006 shows the aircrew boarding on the Airbus 319 jumbo jet of the Dongxing Group Co. Ltd for its maiden flight at the Tianhe International Airport in Wuhan, central China's Hubei ProvinceThe East Star Group and ChinaEquity agreed the restructuring plan earlier this month. The Intermediate People's Court in Wuhan heard the plan Tuesday.    East Star was founded in May 2005, making it China's fourth private carrier after Okay Airways, United Eagle Airlines and Spring Airlines. It operated more than 20 domestic passenger routes between key cities with a fleet of nine aircraft and held about 10 percent of the market share in Wuhan.     The airline, with a registered capital of 80 million yuan, was jointly owned by a tourist agency, a tourist investment company and a real estate firm, which all belonged to the East Star Group.     On March 13, the airline rejected a government-initiated take-over by the parent group of national flag carrier Air China.     Its operations were suspended by the industry regulator as of March 15, due to prolonged financial and management problems. File photo taken on March 27, 2009 shows a jumbo jet of the Dongxing Group Co. Ltd lying on the tarmac, as a plane of another airway taking off overhead, at the Tianhe International Airport in Wuhan, central China's Hubei ProvinceThe order was issued by General Administration of Civil Aviation of China (CAAC)'s branch in charge of the country's central and southern areas after the Wuhan municipal government submitted an application for the suspension.    The bankruptcy proceedings were launched on March 30 at the request of six creditors, according to the Communications Commission of Wuhan City.     East Star Airlines announced last month that its total debt surpassed 752 million yuan.     General Electric's aircraft leasing arm, GE Commercial Aviation Services, one of the creditors, has taken back all nine aircraft it had leased to the airline.     State-owned Air China has recruited about 600 out of the more than 1,000 staff of East Star Airlines.     The global economic downturn reduced air travel severely, making last year a hard time for the airline industry.     The Chinese government injected billions of yuan into Air China, China Southern Airlines and China Eastern Airlines, the three major state-owned carriers, to help them ride out the downturn.     Wang Chaoyong, chairman of ChinaEquity, said private airlines had no access to bailouts.     Zhao Changbing, spokesman of East Star Airlines, said the government should protect the brand of the private business.     Zhao said the airline rejected the takeover by the parent of Air China because the offer was too low and it only covered the debts.

BEIJING, Sept. 29 (Xinhua) -- China will lower gasoline and diesel prices by 190 yuan (27.8 U.S. dollars) per tonne from Wednesday, the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) announced Tuesday.     The benchmark price of gasoline will be 6,620 yuan a tonne, and for diesel 5,880 yuan a tonne, according to the NDRC.     The retail price of gasoline will drop by 0.14 yuan per liter and that of diesel will decrease by 0.16 yuan per liter.     It is the eighth fuel price adjustment since the country adopted a new fuel pricing mechanism, which took effect on Jan. 1 and the first reduction of fuel prices in two months.     Under the pricing mechanism, the NDRC will consider changing the benchmark retail prices of oil products when the international crude price changes more than 4 percent over 22 straight working days.     The price cut was in accordance with the international price changes, the NDRC said.     The average crude price of Brent, Dubai and Cinta has declined to 71.52 U.S. dollars a barrel, down 5.02 percent since the previous fuel price adjustment, according to the Shanghai-based CBI (China) Co., Ltd., a leading service provider in Chinese commodity markets.
