India to host International workshop on ‘Green Customs Initiatives’

May 25, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

New Delhi, May 25 (ANI): India will host a five-day international workshop starting from today on ‘Green Customs Initiatives’ to bring awareness about environment protection and the role of customs officers in enforcing environmental laws on the borders.

The National Academy of Customs, Excise and Narcotics (NACEN), the training arm of the Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC), will host the event under the aegis of the World Customs Organisation (WCO) at NACEN in Faridabad.

Protection of the environment is a primary concern of the international community today to ensure that the earth does not become the victim of environmental degradation with its catastrophic consequences for life on earth. The role of Customs Departments of the International Community is important specially in view of the fact that national and international Crime Syndicates are indulging in environmental crimes for pecuniary gains.

The Workshop is aimed at bringing about awareness of the importance of environment protection and the role of Customs Officers in this task in the Asia Pacific, Central Asia and Australasia Regions.

The participants of the Workshop are expected to go back to their respective countries duly enriched on this aspect and take forward the “Green Customs Initiatives” which has been launched by the Secretariats of the Multilateral Environment Agreements (MEAs) such as, Basel Convention, Rotterdam Convention, Stockholm Convention, Montreal Protocol, Chemical Weapons Convention etc. in cooperation with UNEP and the WCO.

The Workshop will be attended by participants from 21 countries of the Central Asia, Asia Pacific and Australasia Regions and Experts from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the World Customs Organisation (WCO) and the Secretariats of the Multilateral Environment Agreements (MEAs) (to which India is a party).

Michelle Obama thrilled to visit Sesame Street

May 6, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Washington, May 6 (ANI): US First Lady Michelle Obama’s was thrilled to visit “Sesame Street” on her first visit to New York since Barack Obama took over as US President.

After a visit to the US Mission to the United Nations, she set aside time for a special stop today at the “Sesame Street”.

“And I was thrilled,” Michelle told employees of the US mission to the United Nations. “I never thought I’d be on Sesame Street with Elmo and Big Bird. … I’m still thrilled. I’m on a high.”

She told the employees that she was on the public-broadcasting show to discuss nutrition and healthy eating. (She did not say when her episode of the show would be broadcast.)

Michelle said with a smile that her meeting with the two Muppet legends was “probably the best thing I’ve done so far in the White House,” The Washington Post reported.

Her agenda at the UN mission, meanwhile, was simply to say thank you to federal employees.

Since becoming first lady, Michelle has visited many federal agencies in Washington-including the Departments of Education, Housing and Urban Development, Interior and Homeland Security-to express gratitude to bureaucrats who often work tirelessly out of the spotlight.

“Many people don’t hear that. Many people don’t feel that the years that they’ve put in sometimes are not appreciated. And my visits are a simple way of saying yes, in fact, we see you, we know who you are, we value what you do,” she said. (ANI)

Chinese province says will fine civil servants who don’t smoke local cigarettes

May 4, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Beijing, May 4 (ANI): Believe it or not, Chinese civil servants who refuse or fail to consume a sufficient amount of locally made cigarettes, will be fined.

An order to this effect has been passed in Hubei Province. The regulation set standards for the number and brands of cigarettes to be bought and used by its officials.

All local government agencies and institutions should aim to consume 230,000 packs of Hubei Province-produced cigarettes a year, or about 4 million Yuan (588,235 dollars). Departments that fail to consume sufficient cigarettes or consumed non-local brand cigarettes would be fined, Hubei-based Chutian Metropolis Daily reported.
According to the Global Times, the regulation will boost the local economy via cigarette tax.

The regulation included punishments but no offenders have been fined, said an unnamed spokesman at the county public relations department. The regulation is just a general guideline and does not target specific tobacco brands, an official at the county finance bureau who refused to give his name told the Global Times yesterday.

The Hubei cigarette market is dominated by Hunan brands Furongwang, Baisha and the Yunan brand Ashima according to a NetEase.com Internet user allegedly from the same county. The measure will help the brand Huanghelou survive competition.

The measure seems intended to boost the local economy but it in fact boosts the political careers of government officials, argued another former county resident on the Netease forum. In the long run, it boosts corruption and hurts the public interest, he said. (ANI)

‘Pakistan right at this minute is a more acute problem than Iran,’ says expert

April 24, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Washington, Apr.24 (ANI): A senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, who served as an adviser in the Clinton and Bush State Departments, has warned that as of now the evolving situation in Pakistan is more acute than Iran’s alleged nuclear ambitions.

According to David Pollock, the situation in both countries is serious and a matter of grave concern to the international community.

“Iran is also pretty serious and quite an urgent problem as well. I don’t think we have the luxury of putting Iran on hold while we deal with Pakistan. …We have to really be able to try to work on a number of different issues at the same time,” Fox News quoted Pollock, as saying.

Iran has been high on the list of foreign priorities for the U.S. because of its nuclear program. Oil-rich Iran says it is building nuclear reactors to generate electricity, but Washington believes it is secretly aiming to build atomic weapons, in violation of Tehran’s treaty commitments. .

Pakistan, which is supposed to be a key ally of the U.S. in the war against the Taliban and Al Qaeda in Afghanistan, is already rich in nuclear weapons.

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Wednesday that the Pakistani government is “basically abdicating to the Taliban and the extremists.”

The secretary of state’s comments came after Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari approved Islamic Shariah law in the northwestern Swat valley, which has been overtaken by Taliban forces.

President Obama has invited Zardari and Afghan President Hamid Karzai to the White House early next month, and Clinton made clear that Washington expects Zardari in particular to take a much harder line against extremists.

Richard Perle, former chairman of President George W. Bush’s Defense Policy Board and now a resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, said the Obama administration needs to be working around the clock on Pakistan “because that’s a very serious situation.”

Perle, however, doesn’t believe the administration’s efforts toward Iran are taking up much time.

“If Clinton and others were shuttling around the globe to put together a coalition with the Iranians, you could argue that it is a drain on resources,” he said. “But I don’t think there’s a lot of heavy lifting,” Perle said. (ANI)

Israel seriously considering military action against Iran: US report

March 5, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Washington, Mar 5 (ANI): A report by top US political figures and experts released on Wednesday in Washington has claimed that Israel is seriously considering unilateral military action against Iran to prevent it from acquiring nuclear weapons.

The Jerusalem Post quoted the report as saying that Israel’s time frame for action is growing shorter, not only because of Iranian advances, but because Teheran might soon acquire upgraded air defenses and disperse its nuclear program to additional locations.

The report, named as “Preventing a Cascade of Instability” was released by the Washington Institute for Near East Policy (WINEP).

An early draft of the report was endorsed by Dennis Ross before he withdrew upon joining the Obama administration, in which he is serving as a special representative dealing with various countries in the region, including Iran.

Senator Evan Bayh of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, and Congressman Gary Ackerman, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs subcommittee on the Middle East, were among the signatories.

The report has urged for intensifying international sanctions against Iran for the effective engagement of Obama administration with Tehran.

The bipartisan group has also advised increasing security guarantees and the supply of missile defenses and other protective measures to allies in the Middle East, both to reassure them of America’s support to them.

The report has, however, noted that Israel is not interested in becoming part of an American nuclear umbrella as many Israelis fear that a declared US guarantee could come at the price of circumscribing Israel’s freedom of action in confronting existential dangers.

Former US ambassador to the United Nations Nancy Soderberg, one of the task force members who traveled to the region to research the report, expressed her concerns at a WINEP event on the report’s release.

She noted that the timetable for an Israeli attack might be “significantly” moved up if Jerusalem believed Russia would fulfill its promise to supply Iran with the S-300 surface-to-air missile system, which would greatly complicate any Israeli attack.

If the delivery does occur, the report recommends more arms sales to Israel, such as more modern aircraft, so it can maintain its military edge.

Later, she said that the aim of the report was to come up with strategies where neither the United States nor Israel was at the point of launching military action.

To that end, the 10-page document urges more international sanctions and expanding financial pressure taken by the US Treasury, by creating similar programs at the US Commerce and State Departments. (ANI)
