    Hu?Ts Visit to U.S. Full of Unexpected Twists and Turns
    By Li Tu
    The Epoch Times
    Sep 11, 2005
    As the President of China, the General Secretary of the CCP and the Chairman of the Central Military Commission, Hu Jintaô?Ts first visit to the US was a long time in the planning, with careful consideration given to every aspect?"or so they thought. No one on Hu?Ts staff was able to predict Hurricane Katrina, who has so rudely dismantled the president?Ts itinerary, leaving only a shadow of the original tour intact. Many observe that what was meant to be a smooth ride has become full of unexpected twists and turns.
    What Is the Nature of Hu?Ts Visit?
    The answer to this question became somewhat of an issue between the Chinese and U.S. governments of late, with representatives from each side engaged in six to eight-month-long negotiations that have yet to yield an agreement.
    On August 25, the spokesperson for Chinâ?Ts Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Kong Quan, announced that Hu Jintao would be leaving on a visit to the West, including stops in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Hu was set to be gone from the 5th to the 17th of September and had included in his itinerary a stop in New York for the 60th anniversary of the United Nations.
    A White House official was quick to point out that Hu?Ts scheduled visit to Washington DC is ?oby no means a state visit.? This comment seems to signal a cool reception for the Chinese president, but on the other hand, the White House is still planning a welcome on the south lawn, accompanied by 21-gun salutes. A VIP brunch at the White House will also go ahead as planned, but the banquet and joint press conference were not put into the agenda.
    According to a Washington D.C. source, the treatment of Hu Jintaô?Ts visit requested by the Chinese Embassy in the U.S. is extremely fierce and has astonished U.S. officials.
    Falun Gong Practitioners in U.S. and Canada Request That Their Governments Deny Entrance to Hu?Ts Entourage
    When Falun Gong groups in both the U.S. and Canada first heard of Hu?Ts intended visit, they reacted immediately by petitioning their governments to deny entrance to Chinâ?Ts Secretary of Commerce Bo Xilai and the Vice Governor of Liaoning Province Fu Deren, both members of Hu?Ts entourage, on the grounds that each stands accused of crimes committed against humanity in relation to the persecution of Falun Gong.
    Many Canadian congresspeople and renowned international human rights attorneys attended a press conference held to call upon the Canadian government to ?ofulfill its responsibility and duty by denying entrance visas to Fu Deren and Bo Xilai.?
    On August 29, U.S. based Falun Gong students sent a letter to the U.S. government, requesting that it refuse entrance to Bo and Fu based on a July 28, 2004 decision in the D.C. district court that condemned both of these men for committing ?ocrimes of torture and massacrê? in persecuting Falun Gong practitioners
    In 2004, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police placed 45 senior Chinese officials involved in the persecution of Falun Gong on a special surveillance list. Under Canadian law, anyone on the list can be refused entry into the country and could face possible expatriation and prosecution in the Canadian courts. Bo Xilai?Ts name is on this list.
    The CCP Struggles not to See or Hear Falun Gong Protestors
    In anticipation of Hu?Ts visit, Chinese Embassies in the US and Canada have been wracking their brains to devise effective measures for preventing human rights protesters from coming into contact with the Chinese president?Ts group. They have strict instruction that protesters, especially Falun Gong practitioners, are to be neither seen nor heard.
    When Hu?Ts plane touches down in Seattle, it will not be at the international airport, but at private landing facilities provided by Boeing.
    In order to not see the demonstration crowd, after Hu gets off the plane, he will immediately travel by car to Boeing?Ts heliport. He will then travel by helicopter to the Four Seasons Hotel in downtown Seattle.
    When the former Chinese Communist Party president Jiang Zemin visited the U.S., in order to avoid the Falun Gong crowd, he detoured via the hotel trash lane, which is a complete joke.
    Local Chinese Embassies Pay Members of the Community to Welcome Hu
    It has become the convention that when CCP leaders visit a foreign country, the Chinese Embassy there will pay poorer members of the local Chinese community to attend a welcoming ceremony. This has been the case preceding Hu?Ts visit.
    On September 3, a New York Chinese student association sent out a notice giving the location and details for the reception. Anyone who comes is promised free prepared food, subway fare, and a free buffet in the weekend.
    Another source claims that participants will also receive money and free clothing.
    Is it not humiliating to China that it must pay its own citizens to welcome its officials to a foreign land? Surely, no other country resorts *****ch bribery in an effort to save face.
    Hiring a Welcome Crew is Shameful And Laughable
    After the CCP leaders?T need to hire people to welcome them was exposed overseas, many people came to despise them for bringing such shame to the Chinese people.
    Renowned democracy activist Wei Jingsheng said that the CCP has set a tra***ion of these techniques, they threaten or bribe. This is the embassy?Ts political duty every time.
    The Epoch Times columnist Zhang Tianliang comments that there is a double shame in the welcome crowds. One is that the CCP is so despised by its own people that it must pay them to offer a proper welcome. The other is the farce of the officials pretending that the hired people are genuine when the world knows that they are not. These hirelings all have their own agendas, ranging from food and shelter to the acquisition of future business connections in China. None are genuine and all bring shame to the nation of China.

    China spy plane seen near Japan last month - report
    TOKYO (Reuters) - A Chinese military plane used for gathering electronic information from warships and other military facilities was seen near Japan''s southernmost main island of Kyushu twice in August, Kyodo news agency said on Tuesday.
    The aircraft seemed to be carrying out an exercise or test in Japan''s designated air defence zone, Kyodo quoted an unidentified source as saying in a story from Washington.
    A spokesman for Japan''s Defence Agency said he had no information on the sighting.
    The news comes amid simmering tensions between China and Japan over a range of issues from wartime history to territorial rights in the East China Sea, where China is developing a gas field close to an area claimed by Japan.
    Japan has also granted test-drilling rights to Teikoku Oil Co. to test-drill for gas in the disputed waters.
    A Japanese military patrol plane spotted five Chinese warships close to the Chunxiao gas field on Friday, weeks before China is slated to begin gas production in the area, a move Tokyo has repeatedly urged Beijing to shelve.
    Kyodo said this was the first time a Chinese electronic surveillance aircraft had been spotted, and quoted its sources as saying the plane''s purpose was identified by its external features and flight pattern.
    The Pentagon said in a report in July it was concerned about China''s military modernisation, which will likely change the balance of power in Asia.
    Relations between Japan and China, already chilly, took a turn for the worse when Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi sprang to power in 2001.
    Many in Asia criticise his visits to the Yasukuni war shrine, which they say is a symbol of the past Japanese militarism used to justify the invasion of parts of China as well as North and South Korea.
    Koizumi was re-elected prime minister in a landslide poll victory on Sunday, something South Korean media said might shake Asian stability.

    Russian Fighter Plane Crashes in Lithuania
    By Liudas Dapkus
    The Associated Press
    VILNIUS, Lithuania -- A Russian Su-27 fighter bomber crashed in Lithuania Thursday after violating the NATO member''s airspace, prompting an investigation, Lithuanian officials said.
    The crash, about 190 kilometers northwest of Vilnius, occurred during a flight from St. Petersburg to Russia''s Baltic enclave of Kaliningrad, the Lithuanian Defense Ministry said.
    Defense Minister Gediminas Kirkilas said the Prosecutor General''s Office had begun an investigation, but added he believed the airspace violation was not intentional.
    "According to information we have now, it was clearly an accident, not an attempt to attack strategic targets in Lithuania," Kirkilas said.
    The Russian pilot, Major Valery Troyanov, ejected from the aircraft safely and was not injured, the Lithuanian Air Force chief, Colonel Romas Marcinkus said. Troyanov, 36, was detained and taken to a police station in the nearby town of Jurbarkas.
    Two NATO F-4 fighters took off from a nearby air base after the Russian plane entered Lithuanian air space but did not reach the jet before it crashed, the ministry said. The Russian plane carried no ammunition and posed no danger.
    "We had information that a group of Russian military planes would be flying through a neutral corridor near the Lithuanian border," said General Vladas Tutkus, commander of the Lithuanian armed forces. "Our radars, which had been surveying that group, detected that one jet separated from others, flew into Lithuanian airspace minutes later and crashed into a field."
    The Lithuanian army sealed the crash site and began investigating the plane''s remains, Tutkus said.
    People in the village of Ploksciai, near where the plane crashed, watched as Lithuanian army and NATO officials investigated the site. NATO fighters circled over the field, guarded by heavily armed Lithuanian troops.
    "We heard a plane roar and then a blast," said villager Laima Miliuniene. "It crashed into the field ... but there was no big fire. Military officials soon appeared and surrounded the area."
    Russian officials gave conflicting reports of why the jet had entered Lithuanian airspace. A Defense Ministry statement said the incident happened as a detachment of Air Force planes flew to Kaliningrad, which is home to a Russian military base. A duty officer at the Defense Ministry in Moscow said the warplanes had agreed to fly along a "corridor" for their flight across Lithuania.
    The Russian Embassy in Vilnius has requested the pilot be handed over to Russian officials, the Lithuanian Foreign Ministry said. Moscow has also asked for the flight recorder, or the black boxes, of the Su-27.
    In May, Finland complained that Russian military aircraft had repeatedly violated its airspace during over several months. The violations allegedly took place in Finnish airspace over the Gulf of Finland in the Baltic Sea as the fighter jets flew to and from Kaliningrad

    Koizumi Landslide: The China Factor
    Standing tall against Chinese pressure, the Japanese prime minister gains an electoral mandate
    Yoichi Funabashi
    YaleGlobal, 15 September 2005

    [​IMG]
    Standing Tall: Japan''s Junichiro Koizumi savors his landslide win: China has reasons to worry. (Photo: Reuters)
    TOKYO: Sunday''s election in Japan has been mistakenly described as a referendum on reform, as Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi was somehow able to frame the debate as the pro-reform Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) versus the anti-reform others. More than a referendum on reform, the September 11 election was really a national referendum on Koizumi himself.
    Japan finds itself in the midst of a growing national crisis, and Koizumi''s overwhelming victory is fundamentally based on what the public perceives as his leadership style, not his platform. As part of his appeal stems from the strong stand he has taken with China, his landslide victory may not bode well for increasingly acrimonious relations between Asia''s two giants.

    Koizumi, often sporting pastel shirts without a tie during the 12-day campaign, brought more than just a new style to Japanese politics. More importantly, he brought a new sense of boldness, defiance, and strength, at a time when the public was craving change. Like him or hate him, most Japanese respect Koizumi''s determination and many respond to his strong personal leadership and appeal.
    Whereas previous Prime Ministers were more likely to be compared to "cold pizza," Koizumi reminded the public in the last month why they once waited for hours to buy a key chain with his face on it or hear him speak at a rally. When Koizumi was rising to power, he was greeted by excited yells of "Jun-chan," as the electorate seemed to view him as a rock star. In this election, however, he was greeted by excited yet more deferential yells of "Koizumi-saan," a subtle reflection of the respect he has gained and increasingly commands. Since coming to power, Koizumi''s image has changed from a sub-cultural to cultural phenomenon, having evolved in response to the demands of an electorate yearning for stronger, decisive leadership and Japanese identity and style in a period of increasing challenges.

    Curiously enough, foreign policy was almost totally absent from the pre-election debate. Some may perceive this as a sign that Japan is growing increasingly inward-looking, as Koizumi simply wanted to limit the agenda to the single domestic issue of postal privatization. However, this reading would be wrong. Although very difficult to detect since it was discreetly under the radar, I would nevertheless contend that the China factor was actually one of the largest issues in this election, as more than any other factor, a rising China and its direct challenge to Japan set the context for the debate.
    It is almost unthinkable to envision such a large LDP victory without considering the violent anti-Japanese demonstrations that swept through China last summer and spring or Beijing''s visible effort to block Japan''s bid for a permanent UN Security Council seat. Koizumi has been seen as "standing tall" against China, as he has postured himself as a kizen, or fearless, leader. Although moderate and liberal Japanese ?" and even the majority of LDP supporters ?" express their opposition to and reservations about Koizumi''s continuous and contentious Yasukuni shrine visits, Japanese across the political spectrum resent what they perceive as the audacity of China''s lectures on history and its gunboat diplomacy in the East China Sea.
    For the past several months, China has subjected Japan to public protests and lecture about admitting the historical truth about Japan''s wartime atrocities. Just as Japan was gearing up to go to the polls, the Chinese navy dispatched five warships to the disputed area in the East China Sea, where a Japanese oil company was planning to drill for gas.

    China''s growth as an economic hub has been a mixed blessing for Japan, as much of Japan''s recent economic recovery rests squarely on the China boom, and yet the stronger China becomes economically, the more it will be able to transfer economic might into political and military clout. Japanese realize this, and therefore accept the need to change their economy and raise their competitiveness. They are aware that vested interests and a burgeoning deficit have been bleeding Japan''s vitality, and in order to deal with increasingly cut-throat competition with China, reform really is necessary, although it''s still unclear just how much Japanese are willing to pay for what level of reform.
    Koizumi''s landslide victory may in time prove to be the last gasp of the LDP, as the public likely holds unrealistic expectations of how much Koizumi will be able to accomplish before he steps down next September. Koizumi has been reaffirmed with a massive wave of popular support, but has not yet addressed what he plans to focus on following his single issue of concern: postal privatization. Agenda setting will be one of the most critical developments in Japan over the next year, as Koizumi will have to choose between an increased focus on domestic policy ?" the Japanese public debt has risen to 160 percent of GDP ?" or foreign policy, as relations with East Asian neighbors continue to worsen.

    Furthermore, although Koizumi is now deciding how to use the political capital he has gained from such an overwhelming popular mandate, an effective transformation of this perceived political capital may prove to be elusive. Especially due to Koizumi''s strategy of appealing to metropolitan centers, young voters, and females, he has planted the seeds of a shift in the main LDP constituency base, but has in no way cemented it. The new voters Koizumi courted at great lengths will not likely demonstrate the same loyalty as the LDP''s old, pork-barrel politics-stuffed rural political base. This factor is important ?" and worrisome ?" because in order for the LDP to maintain its appeal to the whimsical and floating metropolitan voters it will need, it is likely that its leaders will increasingly feel pressured to raise the stakes of what a bold, style-oriented leader must be.
    A wise leader knows how to translate nationalism into reform, as Margaret Thatcher did, to some extent, in the wake of the British victory over Argentina in the Falkland Islands. Whereas Thatcher skillfully exploited that nationalistic sentiment and channeled it into a reform agenda, in Japan''s case, the reverse may prove to be true, as Japanese leaders may unwisely attempt to channel popular support for a reform agenda into nationalistic sentiment. China, unfortunately, may continue to embolden this type of pro-nationalistic leadership style in Tokyo, as Japan seems to be an ostensible exception to Beijing''s peaceful rise strategy.
    The danger ahead, then, is the momentum that an increasingly strong, bold, nationalistic premier would add to what seems like an increasingly possible collision course between China and Japan as they vie for the spot of East Asia''s preeminent power. Despite increasing economic interdependence, Japan and China seem to be driven more by passion and animus than economic rationality. Status, prestige, and pride are proving dangerous bedfellows for two nations consecutively vying for more regional predominance and maritime control. Although the inevitability of such a collision is far from assured, the months and years ahead will prove to be formative ones not only on Japan''s domestic political culture, but on the implications for East Asian stability, as well.

    The beauty products from the skin of executed Chinese prisoners
    · Cosmetics firm targets UK market ·
    Lack of regulation puts users at risk
    Ian Cobain and Adam Luck
    Tuesday September 13, 2005
    The Guardian
    A Chinese cosmetics company is using skin harvested from the corpses of executed convicts to develop beauty products for sale in Europe, an investigation by the Guardian has discovered.
    Agents for the firm have told would-be customers it is developing collagen for lip and wrinkle treatments from skin taken from prisoners after they have been shot. The agents say some of the company''s products have been exported to the UK, and that the use of skin from condemned convicts is "tra***ional" and nothing to "make such a big fuss about".
    Article continues
    With European regulations to control cosmetic treatments such as collagen not expected for several years, doctors and politicians say the discovery highlights the dangers faced by the increasing number of Britons seeking to improve their looks. Apart from the ethical concerns, there is also the potential risk of infection.
    MPs on the Commons select health committee are to examine the regulatory system and may launch an investigation and question ministers about the need for immediate new controls. "I am sure that the committee will want to look at this," said Kevin Barron, its Labour chairman. "This is something everyone in society will be very concerned about."
    Plastic surgeons are also concerned about the delay in introducing regulations to control the cosmetic treatments industry. Norman Waterhouse, a former president of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, said: "I am surprised that we are taking the lead from the European commission, because this is bound to delay action on this important area which is increasingly a matter for concern. It seems like a bit of a cop out to me."
    It is unclear whether any of the "aesthetic fillers" such as collagen available in the UK or on the internet are supplied by the company, which cannot be identified for legal reasons. It is also unclear whether collagen made from prisoners'' skin is in the research stage or is in production. However, the Guardian has learned that the company has exported collagen products to the UK in the past. An agent told customers it had also exported to the US and European countries, and that it was trying to develop fillers using tissue from aborted foetuses.
    Tra***ional
    When formally approached by the Guardian, the agent denied the company was using skin harvested from executed prisoners. However, he had already admitted it was doing precisely this during a number of conversations with a researcher posing as a Hong Kong businessman. The Press Complaints Commission''s code of practice permits subterfuge if there is no other means of investigating a matter of public interest.
    The agent told the researcher: "A lot of the research is still carried out in the tra***ional manner using skin from the executed prisoner and aborted foetus." This material, he said, was being bought from "bio tech" companies based in the northern province of Heilongjiang, and was being developed elsewhere in China.
    He suggested that the use of skin and other tissues harvested from executed prisoners was not uncommon. "In China it is considered very normal and I was very shocked that western countries can make such a big fuss about this," he said. Speaking from his office in northern China, he added: "The government has put some pressure on all the medical facilities to keep this type of work in low profile."
    The agent said his company exported to the west via Hong Kong."We are still in the early days of selling these products, and clients from abroad are quite surprised that China can manufacture the same human collagen for less than 5% of what it costs in the west." Skin from prisoners used to be even less expensive, he said. "Nowadays there is a certain fee that has to be paid to the court."
    The agent''s admission comes after an inquiry into the cosmetic surgery industry in Britain, commissioned by the Department of Health, pointed to the need for new regulations controlling collagen treatments. Sir Liam Donaldson, the chief medical officer, has highlighted the inquiry''s concerns about the use of cadavers for cosmetic treatments. "Cosmetic procedures are a rapidly growing area of private health care," he said. "We must ensure we properly protect patients'' safety by improving the training and regulation."
    The DoH has agreed to the inquiry''s recommendations, but is waiting for the European commission to draw up proposals for laws governing cosmetic products. It could be several years before this legislation takes force.
    Meanwhile, cosmetic treatments, including those with with aesthetic fillers, are growing rapidly in popularity, with around 150,000 injections or implants administered each year in the UK. Lip enhancement treatments are one of the most popular, costing an average of £170.
    Some fillers are made from cattle or pig tissue, and others from humans. The DoH believes that there may be a risk of transmission of blood-borne viruses and even vCJD from collagen containing human tissue. Although there is as yet no evidence that this has happened, the inquiry found that some collagen injections had triggered inflammatory reactions causing permanent discomfort, scarring and disfigurement. In their report, the inquiry team said that if there was a risk, "action should be taken to protect patient safety through regulation".
    While new regulations are to be drawn up, the department is currently powerless to regulate most human-tissue fillers intended for injection or implant, as they occupy a legal grey area. Most products are not governed by regulations controlling medical products, as they are not classified as medicines. They also escape cosmetics regulations, which only apply *****bstances used on the surface of the skin and not those injected beneath it. The Healthcare Commission is planning new regulations for cosmetic surgery clinics next year, but these will not control the substances used by plastic surgeons.
    Hand transplants
    A number of plastic surgeons have told the Guardian that they have been hearing rumours about the use of tissue harvested from executed prisoners for several years.
    Peter Butler, a consultant plastic surgeon and government adviser, said there had been rumours that Chinese surgeons had performed hand transplants using hands from executed prisoners. One transplant centre was believed to be adjacent to an execution ground. "I can see the utility of it, as they have access and no ethical objection," he said. "The main concern would be infective risk."
    Andrew Lee of the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, who has visited China to examine transplant techniques, said he had heard similar rumours.
    Manufacturers of aesthetic fillers said they had seen Chinese collagen products on sale at trade fairs, but had not seen any labelled Chinese-made in the UK. Dan Cohen, whose US-based company, Inamed, produces collagen products, said: "We have come across Chinese products in the market place. But most products from China are being sold ''off-label'' or are being imported illegally."
    In China, authorities deny that prisoners'' body parts are harvested without their consent. However, there is some evidence *****ggest it may be happening.
    In June 2001, Wang Guoqi, a Chinese former military physician, told US congressmen he had worked at execution grounds helping surgeons to harvest the organs of more than 100 executed prisoners, without prior consent. The surgeons used converted vans parked near the execution grounds to begin dissecting the bodies, he told the house international relations committee''s human rights panel.
    Skin was said to be highly valued for the treatment of burn victims, and Dr Wang said that in 1995 he skinned a shot convict''s body while the man''s heart was still beating. Dr Wang, who was seeking asylum in the US, also alleged that corneas and other body tissue were removed for transplant, and said his hospital, the Tianjin paramilitary police general brigade hospital, sold body parts for profit.
    Human rights activists in China have repeatedly claimed that organs have been harvested from the corpses of executed prisoners and sold *****rgeons offering transplants to fee-paying foreigners.
    Dr Wang''s allegations infuriated the Chinese authorities, and in a rare move officials publicly denounced him as a liar. The government said organs were transplanted from executed prisoners only if they and their family gave consent.
    Although the exact number of people facing the death penalty in China is an official secret, Amnesty International believes around 3,400 were executed last year, with a further 6,000 on death row.
    What is it?
    Collagen is a major structural protein found in abundance in skin, bones, tendons and other connective tissue. Matted sheets of collagen give skin its toughness and by winding into molecular "cables", it adds strength to tendons.
    What is it used for?
    Collagen injections are used in cosmetic surgery to plump up lips and flatten out wrinkles. After botox, collagen injections are the second-most popular cosmetic operations in Britain. Collagen does not have a permanent effect and several injections are often needed.
    What else is it good for?
    Collagen was being put to good use as far back as the stone age. Neolithic **** dwellers around the Dead Sea are believed to have used it as a primitive form of glue some 8,000 years ago. More recently, researchers have developed a form that can be poured or injected into wounds to seal them.
    Where does it come from?
    A number of sources. Some companies extract it from cow skin and treat it to minimise the risk of allergic reactions or infection. Others collect it from human donors or extract cells from the patient before growing the necessary amount in a laboratory.
    Is it safe?
    Collagen can cause allergic reactions if it has not been treated correctly, and there is a theoretical risk of disease being passed on. A small amount of collagen is often injected into the skin a few weeks before treatment to test for possible allergic reactions. Earlier this year, Sir Liam Donaldson warned that collagen injections could spread con***ions such as hepatitis and variant CJD, the human form of mad cow disease.

    Máy bay chiến đấu của Nga rơi xuống lãnh thổ của Lithuania
    Hôm thứ 5 (15/9), một máy bay thả bom của Nga đã rơi xuống lãnh thổ của Lithuania, xâm phạm không phận của nước này. Ông Gediminas Kirkilas, Bộ trưởng quốc phòng Lithuania cho biết, hiện vụ việc đang được tiến hành điều tra.
    Bộ trưởng cho biết, máy bay chiến đấu SU-27 của Nga nằm trong phi đội phòng không của lực lượng không quân Nga, đang thực hiện chuyến bay từ St. Petersburg đến vùng đất Kaliningrad, thuộc biển Baltic, Nga, gần biên giới Lithuania. Máy bay này đã bay chệch hướng, và bay vào không phận của Lithuania, và vài phút sau đã đâm xuống 1 cánh đồng cách phía đông bắc thủ đô Lithuania 190km.
    Quân đội Lithuania đã dùng rada để tìm kiếm máy bay trong 6 phút. Họ kết luận rằng phi công đã không cố ý vi phạm vào địa phận của Lithuania và cho biết phi công đã mất định hướng và máy bay mất sự kiểm soát, có thể là do trục trặc về hệ thống thăng bằng của máy bay.
    Phi công trên máy bay đã thoát khỏi máy bay và an toàn.
