Mulity-partied cooperation and political consultion suits china‘s conditions
符合中国国情的多党合作与政治协商制度
White paper lauds parties' joint effort
白皮书歌颂多党合作的成就

  The first ever white paper on political parties pledges（保证, 使发誓, 抵押, 典当, 举杯祝...健康） multi-party cooperation and political consultation （政治协商）under the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC). click to read the full text

Released Thursday by the Information Office of the State Council, the white paper, entitled（题名） "China's Political Party System", explains in detail the formation,（形成） characteristics （特点）and development（发展） of the system and its role in economic and social development.

Multi-party cooperation is a political system that suits China's conditions, the paper says.

"China will not mechanically 机械的copy other countries' political party systems," the document says, adding that the history of modern and contemporary China has proven that blind emulation 盲从of the political or party systems of other countries will not succeed.

Zhuang Congsheng, director of the research office of the United Front Work Department of the Central Committee of the CPC, said multi-party cooperation is different from the two-party or multi-party systems in Western countries and the one-party system practised in some other countries. China has established a unique 独一无二的political party system and its own way to fulfill 履行democracy, he said.

In China, the ruling party执政党 and other parties share the same ideal理想 and same objectives目标, said Zhuang.

The white paper says multi-party cooperation has created a new form of political system in the world.

Under this system, the CPC and other parties work closely together and supervise监督 each other, instead of opposing each other, with the CPC ruling the country and the other parties participating in State affairs according to law.

By the end of 2006, 31,000 people who were not CPC members and those without party affiliation took up government posts at and above the county level, the paper says.

Among them, 18 served as deputy chiefs in the Supreme People's Court, the Supreme People's Procuratorate, and ministries, commissions, offices and bureaus directly under the State Council.

Minister of Health Chen Zhu and Minister of Science and Technology Wan Gang - both educated in Europe - are the first non-CPC members appointed to the Cabinet since the 1970s.

Apart from the CPC, there are eight parties in China: Revolutionary Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang, China Democratic League, China National Democratic Construction Association, China Association for Promoting Democracy, Chinese Peasants and Workers Democratic Party, China Zhi Gong Dang, Jiu San Society and Taiwan Democratic Self-Government League.

World Bank: East Asian economies strong
(Agencies)
Updated: 2007-11-16 07:39


SINGAPORE -- East Asian economies are likely to remain healthy next year despite the impact of the widening subprime lending crisis in the US and the renewed increase in crude oil prices,（原油价格重新增长） the World Bank said Thursday. The region's rapid growth is also reducing poverty, although income inequality is expanding.（尽管收入不平等现象在加剧，地区的经济增长依然降低了贫困率）

While oil is fueling the rapid growth of China, India and other emerging economies, energy companies are going to ever more remote areas to meet that demand. [Agencies]

Led by domestic demand, growth in emerging East Asia, which excludes Japan, is expected to exceed 8 percent this year for a second year in a row（同去年一样，今年将有超过8%的持续增长）, and to moderate slightly next year（明年将会稍微放缓）, the bank said in its half-yearly update on the region's outlook. Japan is likely to grow about 2 percent this year and 1.8 percent in 2008, it said.

Growth in China is now projected to reach 11.3 percent in 2007, up a little from 11.1 percent last year. The bank forecast China's growth to slow slightly to 10.8 percent next year.（今年中国的增长速度计划达到11.3%，比去年的11.1稍微高一点，世界银行预测中国的增长速度稍微放缓为10.8%）

Growth in the middle income economies of Southeast Asia is also expected to （gain momentum）。。这是增长势头依旧强劲的表达方式，如果说势头减弱可用lose momentum这个组合。。this year, with faster growth in the Philippines and Indonesia in the 6 percent to 7 percent range, and continued solid growth in a 5 percent to 6 percent range in Malaysia, driven by stronger personal consumption and investment growth.（个人消费和投资增长）

The bank warned, however, that the problems posed by the US subprime mortgage（次级按揭贷款(subprime mortgage loan) ） crisis, the related credit crisis as well as rising oil prices could hinder （阻碍）East Asia's growth.

The report said the region's financial institutions have relatively limited direct exposures to US subprime mortgages made to borrowers with poor credit histories.

The report said among the economies, China is the largest overseas holder of US mortgage-backed securities -- around $260 billion -- mostly through its international reserve holdings and through holdings of commercial banks. But most of these holdings are backed by US government agencies such as Fannie Mae, the largest US buyer and backer of home mortgages, the report said.

Rather, it said that impact of the crisis on East Asia has instead been heightened uncertainty and a reassessment of risk, reflected in stock market declines.

"Frequent and large reassessments of risk and high volatility in asset prices are likely to remain a part of the scene for some time," the bank said.

Still, if the difficulties in credit markets create a more substantial downturn in the developed world, particularly the US, it would lead to a significant cyclical slowdown in East Asia, the Washington-based institution said. But the impact is likely to be limited given the region's strong macroeconomic fundamentals, the report said.

It predicted that a theoretical decline in US growth to zero in 2008 -- a decline of 2 percentage points -- would be met with a 1 percentage point drop in median East Asian economic growth, to 5 percent from about 6 percent.

"Significant, but no disaster," the report said, referring to the impact of a US recession on the region. "A review of the region's performance in previous global downturns suggests that the impact on East Asia is unlikely to be especially severe or protracted."

East Asian growth was seriously affected during the 2001 US recession that was accompanied by a severe cyclical contraction in global demand for electronic goods. But the bank said there were few signs of such a cycle now.

Record high oil prices, meanwhile, will test the resilience of the region's economies next year, the bank said. Amid surging global demand and supply tightness, average crude oil prices have risen from about $53 a barrel in January to more than $90 in early November.

At $90 a barrel, the price of oil would be linked to an income loss in the region of about 1.1 percent of gross domestic product（国内生产总值） in 2008, according to the bank's calculations.

The report also said the strong economic growth has reduced the number of people living below $2 a day in the region to about 27 percent -- about 500 million people -- in 2007, down from 29.5 percent in 2006 and 69 percent in 1990.

But poverty is now overwhelmingly a rural problem, and it is resulting in widening income inequality, the report said.

"Even as poverty continues to fall in the aggregate, it is often the case that lower income groups experience slower income growth than higher income ones," it said.

The World Bank defines East Asia as comprising bigger economies as the Chinese mainland, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, the Philipppines, Thailand, Vietnam, China's Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore, China's Taiwan and some smaller economies such as Cambodia, Fiji, Lao and Timor-Leste

Majority in favor of new holiday plan
By Xin Dingding (China Daily)
Updated: 2007-11-16 06:56


The majority of 1.3 million people who voted online are in favor of a new public holiday plan that eliminates one of the three Golden Week holidays and adds three traditional festivals to the list.

That was the result from four of the five websites that conducted the survey, which ended last night. The fifth - the National Development and Reform Commission's (NDRC) official website - didn't make its poll findings public.

According to sina.com, which drew the largest number of 590,000 voters, 88 percent supported increasing the number of official holidays from 10 to 11; and 62 percent agreed to including the three traditional holidays - Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon-Boat Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival - in public holidays.

In addition, 81 percent voted for retaining the two Golden Weeks of the Spring Festival and the National Day holidays, and 79 percent supported starting the Spring Festival holiday a day earlier - from the Lunar New Year's Eve - instead of the New Year's Day.

An NDRC official, who did not want to be named, said the economic planner will collect and submit the poll results to the State Council.

Some, however, criticized the poll for the way the questionnaire was framed.

Sang Jie, a Beijing resident, said the survey did not ask if people agreed with the cancellation of the May Day holiday.

"I will lose a week-long holiday, which I used to spend visiting my husband who is working abroad," she said.

A survey conducted by ctrip.com, an online travel service, found that nearly half of more than 1,000 people surveyed said it would be a pity to lose the May Day holiday.

Lin Zhiyuan, a member of the Beijing People's Political Consultative Conference, an advisory body, said soliciting public opinion before a policy is implemented reflects progress in governance, the Oriental Morning News reported.

The new holiday plan, if approved, will entail changes in weddings and travel.

Shanghai Youth Daily reported that many couples may have to cancel wedding banquets booked for the next May Day holiday.

Travel agencies, meanwhile, are tailoring package tours to reflect the new holidays.

Zhang Lingjie, deputy general manager of the domestic tourism department of China International Travel Service Head Office, said that travel agencies will offer more three- or four-day outbound trips.
