Mr. Lijun said that both the universities in his state (Zhengzhou University and Henan University) were open for collaboration for mutual exchange programs and he looked forward to signing a MoU with PU.

ABE’s VISIT TO YASUKUNI SHRINE STOKES TENSION AND MISTRUST IN CHINA eijing refused the Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s request for an official meeting with his Chinese counterpart. Abe stoked tensions with his visit to the Yasukuni Shrine on December 26th, 2013. The shrine is widely viewed as a symbol of Japan’s past militarism, and the visit triggered strong protests from China and South Korea and the United States too expressed disappointment at the same. China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi spoke scathingly of Abe’s visit and warned, “What Abe has done is leading Japan in a very dangerous direction. Lessons from history must be learned.â€? ....................................................................................................................... ‘TRACK OF WINNERS’ CHOSEN AS NANJING 2014 GAMES MEDAL he International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced the 23-year-old MatejÄŒiÄ?ka, sports enthusiast from Slovakia, as the winner of the Nanjing 2014 Youth Olympic Games Medal Design Competition for the 2014 Summer Youth Olympic Games.

MAO’S 120TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION resident Xi Jinping called for austere celebrations to mark the birthday of the great helmsman, Mao Zedong on December 26. His call is consistent with his push against lavish ceremonies and wasteful public spending. The celebrations did not highlight Mao’s central role in China’s worst post-war tragedies: the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution, in which millions died. The President pointed in his speech that “revolutionary leaders are not gods, but human beings.â€? He praised Mao as “a great figure who changed the face of the nation and led the Chinese people to a new destinyâ€?.
