US urges China to allow currency to appreciate

US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner on Thursday urged China to allow further appreciation of its yuan currency against the dollar at the start of talks between the world's two biggest economies. "A stronger, more market-determined renminbi (yuan) will help reinforce China's reform objectives of moving to higher value-added production, reforming the financial system, and encouraging domestic demand," Geithner said, according to a transcript released before he spoke. US officials have long accused Beijing of keeping the value of its currency artificially low to boost exports, leading to a massive Chinese trade surplus with the United States. But Beijing defends its exchange rate regime, saying it is moving gradually to make its currency more flexible. Last month, China loosened some controls over the yuan by allowing the unit to trade in a wider range. Speaking at the annual Strategic and Economic Dialogue, Geithner said China should move forward with economic reforms, including allowing more foreign competition, saying it was important to the United States. "In China, you are in the process of exploring the next frontier of economic reforms, recognising as your predecessors did more than 30 years ago that future economic growth will require another fundamental shift in economic policy," Geithner said. "The United States has a strong interest in the success of these reforms, as does the rest of the world," he said, according to a transcript. Such reforms included relying more on domestic consumption than exports to drive the world's second largest economy, allowing private firms a greater role than state-owned giants and modernising the financial system, he said.

30% of domestic waste in Hanoi goes untreated

Only 70% of Hanoi's household waste is collected for treatment, leaving stagnation in most of the capital's rural areas. Illegally dumped waste on the outskirts of Ha Noi It is estimated that around 2,500 tonnes of household waste are discharged daily in rural areas. Statistics from the city's Natural Resources and Environment Department show that only five out of 18 suburban districts, including Soc Son, Dong Anh, Gia Lam, Me Linh and Thanh Tri, finished transporting all their waste to common waste-treatment plants. According to the department, stagnant waste along local roads, schools and markets has been blamed for environmental pollution in the suburban districts of Thach That, Quoc Oai and Chuong My. The department found some communes in suburban districts using ponds or lakes to bury waste, resulting in local water pollution. Pham Van Khanh, the department's deputy director, said that collecting and transporting waste met difficulties due to tardiness in building landfill sites. Poor co-operation between managerial agencies and environmental sanitation companies was believed to be adding to the situation, he said. District-based authorities blamed shortages of land and money on their slowness to build waste treatment sites, he added. Nguyen Van Doanh, vice chairman of the Chuong My District People's Committee, said that the district had been building temporary landfill sites in the communes of Dong Son, Tan Tien and Tran Phu with the city's support of VND100 million (USD4,800) for each site. "But that is just a short-term solution. In the long run, we'll face difficulties due to having no money to build waste treatment plants," Doanh said. According to Khanh, to solve the problem, the city committee should order its units to speed up the progress of building common waste treatment plants in the districts of Son Tay and Soc Son. As planned, the city targets to build more waste treatment plants with hygienic burying technology by 2015. The city has called for investment to build these sites; however, no investors were ready to pour money into such projects due to slow payback. Besides, the cost for treating waste is also a problem, costing USD15 per tonne, which the city could not afford. In the meantime, it was not easy to raise waste collection fees higher than VND1,500 per person when rural people remained poor, Khanh said Hue Tours Hue Tour Festival Hue Hue Da Nang Da Nang Hoi An Hoi An Hue Du Lich Hue Du Lich Hoi AnDu Lich Da Nang Du Lich Sapa Du Lich Da Lat Du Lich Phu Quoc Du Lich Lao Du Lich Cambodia Du Lich Thai Lan Du Lich Singapore Du Lich Malaysia Du Lich Trung Quoc luan van thac sy

Forest fires wreak havoc

Forest fires blamed on the unseasonably hot weather have devastated swathes of forestry and agricultural land across the country. A fire rages out of control in Nam Hai Van Forest in the central city of Da Nang's Lien Chieu District, yesterday afternoon. By 6.30pm yesterday the fire had destroyed an estimated 30ha of forest. An estimated 30ha of forest on Hai Van Mountain Pass in Lien Chieu District in Da Nang was destroyed by fire yesterday. The blaze was first discovered by rangers at 2pm yesterday in section 4A of eucalyptus forest. It quickly spread to section 11 on the top of Hai Van Mountain pass, 30km north of Da Nang city centre. About 500 soldiers, fire-fighters and local militia were mobilised to contain the fire, which was expected to continue into the next day. "It's so hard for us to approach the fire because the forest is more than 1,000m above sea level. This has prevented fire-fighters and rescuers from gaining access to the area," deputy head of Lien Chieu district's forest ranger section Phan Van Rong said. "The fire is particularly serious because the forest is near an airfield and an ammunition depot left over from the American War," he said, after hearing an explosion. According to local rangers, the fire could get out of control if it reached a nearby pine tree forest and Lien Chieu oil storage depot. Dang Thanh Quan, a militiaman who joined in the rescue, said he was unable to get near the fire because of the inhospitable terrain. "It took us two hours to approach the fire. The best we can do at the moment is just to prevent the blaze from spreading," Quan said. Fire-fighters are currently digging a 2km trench to isolate the fire. Meanwhile, the city's administration has warned neighbouring Thua Thien-Hue Province to ready itself in case the fire crosses the provincial border. A ranger from Lien Chieu District blamed the fire on the recent heat wave. Meanwhile, another fire has broken out in northern Bac Giang Province's Yen Lu Commune. It has so far destroyed 6 ha. The local authorities said 10-year-old trees that included pines, eucalyptus and acacia had been destroyed. By yesterday evening, fire-fighters had yet to put out the blaze. In the northern mountainous province of Ha Giang's Bac Quang District, 12ha of forest has been destroyed by fire, which was extinguished yesterday morning. The fire, which started on Tuesday evening, was allegedly caused by an ethnic family who were attempting to clear land for cultivation. A fire also occurred in the central province of Quang Ngai's Son Tinh District yesterday, damaging 2ha of sandalwood forest. According to Quang Ngai Fire Prevention and Fighting Department, the recent hot weather had helped the fire to spread. The National Centre for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting has recorded the historical peak hot temperature in the northern mountain province of Lao Cai yesterday. The average temperature in the province was reported at 40 to 41 degree Celsius. The high mountain Sa Pa Town's temperature was hit by the recorded 29 degree Celsius. In lower areas, the outside temperature was 43 to 45 degree Celsius while the humidity decreased to 25 to 30 per cent. This was marked as the highest level in the last 55 years. The hot weather has put the region in the high risk of fire. Many hectares of corn and bean fields have suffered withered-leaf.
