Take-away lunch boxes that are difficult to recycle: biodegradable and recyclable, no one cares.

  At 1: 00 pm on September 1, there were still food delivery staff wearing various overalls in the stairwell of Jinlong Building "flying" in the corridor. A delivery man took six takeaways in one hand and waited by the elevator. He told reporters that his site delivered about 800 takeaways a day on average, and if it was raining and other bad weather, the delivery volume exceeded 1,000.

  Correspondingly-a large number of fast food boxes are thrown into the garbage every day. The reporter saw in the unsealed garbage bin that the takeaway boxes were scattered and piled up, and some had more than half a bowl of soup left. "On weekdays, an average of 17 or 8 cars of garbage are collected a day, and each car is about 30 bags of takeaway garbage."

  According to the statistics of Ai Media Consulting, a third-party research institution, 256 million takeaways were produced every day in 2016, including at least 256 million lunch boxes and plastic bags, which will take at least 470 years to degrade after use. Besides incineration, according to statistics, about 8 million tons of plastics are dumped into the sea every year.

  "Degradable" lunch boxes will also pollute the environment.

  "1000 in 55 yuan, wholesale degradable lunch boxes." "Biodegradable plastics are non-toxic and harmless." In lunch box wholesale markets and online stores, such word descriptions can be seen everywhere.

  On Taobao, the reporter saw some disposable foamed lunch boxes with the words "degradation" clearly written on them. A lunch box supplier who settled in Tmall told reporters that their sales volume is calculated by trucks, and they sell an average of 3,000 trucks a year, with 200 boxes in each car and 300 sets in each box, which can sell 180 million sets a year.

  Because they are "degradable", most people think that these plastics can eventually be degraded in the environment, which is green and harmless, and there is little psychological burden when they are discarded. But in fact? Experts say that biodegradable plastics will not degrade in the natural environment, but will cause lasting pollution to the environment, especially the marine environment. Therefore, the widespread use of products labeled as "biodegradable" will not significantly reduce the amount of garbage entering the ocean, or reduce the physical and chemical risks brought by plastics to the marine environment.

  "Many things called biodegradable plastics do meet the standards set by some international institutions, but this only means that they can degrade at certain high temperatures." Han Shuo, a master of materials science at Zhengzhou University and editor of Materials+WeChat in WeChat official account, said. The most commonly used plastics, such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride, are not biodegradable in the ocean. It is almost impossible to achieve the specific conditions required for the degradation of some biodegradable polymers in the marine environment. For example, these polymers need to be treated at a high temperature above 50℃ for a long time before they decompose in industrial compost. There are a few very special plastics that do miraculously degrade, such as oxygen-degradable plastics, but these plastics have few uses and are more expensive.

  In particular, Han Shuo pointed out that some surveys found that the decomposition of oxygen-degradable plastics in the marine environment is quite slow, which may take as long as five years. Moreover, the broken oxygen-degraded plastics continue to pose a threat to the marine ecosystem, and the resulting microplastics particles will be absorbed by marine organisms, resulting in the transport of harmful microorganisms, pathogens and algae.

  In response to the quality monitoring of lunch boxes, the reporter learned that there is no standard for the specific ingredients of takeaway lunch boxes at present, and the personnel of relevant departments said that it is "non-toxic and harmless, as long as it meets food safety standards".

  Hungry? The customer service staff of the takeaway platform told the reporter that the packaging of the takeaway platform is currently the responsibility of the merchants themselves, and the platform has no special requirements for the material and quality of the lunch boxes of the settled merchants. "Lunch boxes are sold by merchants to customers, and they are all charged and provided by the merchants themselves."

  A Meituan takeaway rider said that the platform has no requirements for the environmental protection of lunch boxes, but "it must not contain harmful substances". For packaging, the platform requires that there should be no leakage, nor can it directly contain food in plastic bags.

  "Recyclable" lunch boxes are mostly reduced to domestic garbage.

  At present, there are mainly four kinds of take-away lunch boxes on the market, namely PS (polystyrene) packaging boxes, PP (polypropylene) packaging boxes, paper packaging boxes and degradable lunch boxes made of natural straw pulp or corn starch.

  The reporter visited more than 10 merchants in the city and found that all the lunch boxes used by take-away merchants were purchased by online and wholesalers, and the material was mainly PP5 (polypropylene). The lunch box provided by a braised chicken rice merchant shows that the service temperature is "20℃-100℃", and the words "PP5", "QS" and "microwave oven permission" are also marked on it, and some merchants’ lunch boxes are also marked with the triangle symbol of "recyclable".

  The owner of a Lamian Noodles in Lanzhou said that he didn’t know whether the lunch box was environmentally friendly, but he could guarantee that it was non-toxic and harmless. "This kind of lunch box is basically used for take-out in the market now, but to be on the safe side, we still remind customers to use it once and do not heat it." According to the boss, lunch boxes are purchased from the wholesale market, the price is one in 0.5 yuan, and the daily usage is about 50.

  On take-away platforms such as Hungry, Meituan, etc., consumers will display the cost of lunch boxes when ordering food. Generally, according to the ordering quantity and usage, a lunch box is 1 yuan.

  It is understood that all qualified PP5 lunch boxes have "QS" and number on them, which is equivalent to the product ID card and is also issued by the AQSIQ. This kind of product has undergone strict quality audit, that is, its raw materials, production environment and production technology, including the health requirements of personnel, are strictly regulated.

  Marked with a triangle symbol, indicating that this material can be recycled. However, the reporter interviewed relevant departments and learned that at present, the recycling amount of plastic products in take-away garbage is extremely low, and most of the take-away garbage is incinerated. Why do lunch boxes marked recyclable end up as domestic garbage disposal?

  Sheng Min, Secretary-General of China Renewable Resources Recycling Association Recycling Plastics Branch, said that these materials themselves do have recycling value, but the recycling price is not high. Pure polypropylene (PP) transparent lunch box, which is currently used as the mainstream lunch box, is one of the higher quality plastic materials, and the purchase price is only two or three yuan per kilogram. Moreover, after being used as take-away tableware, it is basically impossible to enter the recycling chain.

  "From the recycling situation, no matter whether it is a scavenger or a recycling enterprise, he usually only chooses relatively simple types such as coke bottles at the front end. Such a dirty lunch box containing oil stains cannot be recycled." Han Shuo said that most of the wastes did not enter the recycling channel for reuse, but were directly incinerated. If some lunch boxes cut corners in order to simplify the process in the production stage, it will cause more pollution to the incineration treatment, so that the degradable materials themselves are actually "non-degradable".

  It is too expensive to separate food from plastic tableware.

  In the interview, the reporter also found that almost no one separated the remaining food in the box from disposable plastic tableware. Many discarded plastic lunch boxes contain leftover food.

  Should waste food in takeaway garbage be separated from disposable plastic products? The staff of relevant departments said that the cost of secondary sorting and cleaning is high, and the value of recycling plastic products is limited. Therefore, most of them will not be sorted twice.

  This statement was recognized by Fang Peng, Ph.D. in Materials Science of Northwestern Polytechnical University and a partner of Beijing Fanrui Technology Co., Ltd. He explained that once food is mixed with disposable plastic products, the cost of sorting is too high. Judging from the current situation, most of these disposable plastic tableware can not be recycled after separation.

  At present, paper lunch boxes are the most environmentally friendly. In developed countries, paper tableware is often used for takeout. There are also some foreign fast food and baking businesses in China who choose paper take-away packaging.

  Fang Peng said that the raw materials of paper tableware are mostly wood pulp, and then they are pressed and shaped by stamping tools, and then chemical additives are coated on the surface to prevent water seepage. At the same time, paper tableware is also harmless. In some high-end takeaway shops, they usually use this kind of tableware to package food, which looks exquisite. "But the disadvantages of paper tableware are also obvious. First, the price is high, and second, it is impossible to package soup."

  There is also a real degradable tableware, which is mainly made of plastic, but with photosensitizer or starch added. Under the action of microbial enzymes in the natural environment, this tableware will be decomposed into carbon dioxide and water, which will not cause harmful effects on the environment. "The disadvantage is also the high price. If there is no special requirement, the merchants will not take the initiative to use it." Fang Peng said.

  So how much pressure will the plastic lunch boxes and packaging entering the garbage disposal system bring to the environment? Fang Peng introduced that for plastic waste, incineration and landfill are still two mainstream ways.

  It is incumbent on take-away enterprises to fulfill their environmental responsibility.

  According to the information released by official website, the daily order volume of Meituan is 12 million, with a cumulative user of 200 million. According to the China takeaway big data released by NGO Sushe citing Hungry, the market size of China has reached 600 million. In 2016, the frequency of online take-away users’ consumption was as high as 63.3%. According to the statistics of this non-profit organization, at least 400 million takeaways "fly in the streets of China" every week, resulting in at least 400 million disposable packaging boxes and 400 million plastic bags, and 400 million disposable tableware discarded.

  A lunch box manufacturer said that although the lunch boxes they produced were food grade, the state did not put forward the "degradable" standards or requirements for lunch box manufacturers. If we use 14.6 billion lunch boxes a year now, and each lunch box will increase the cost of 0.5 yuan, the take-away industry will spend 7.3 billion yuan more. Who will pay for these expenses?

  "The take-away industry has changed from the Three Kingdoms to two leading companies. At this time, we should consider garbage disposal and environmental protection issues." Someone suggested this.

  In Fang Peng’s view, if the policy level can guide and encourage enterprises that are willing to bear environmental costs not to suffer losses, they can use economic leverage to incite the enthusiasm of enterprises through the compensation mechanism, so that maintaining the environment becomes a rational choice for all parties. "Takeaway enterprises should bear the responsibility of recycling plastic lunch boxes and allocate special funds to lunch box recycling or processing enterprises according to sales." Considering the characteristics of Chinese catering, PP lunch boxes can only be used in many cases. "In terms of technology and policy, support PP lunch box manufacturers to develop degradable PP lunch box production technology, sign a recycling plan for PP lunch boxes with take-away merchants and take-away platforms, and advocate diners who use PP lunch boxes to consciously clean their lunch boxes and put them in designated recycling places to facilitate later recycling."

  In June this year, Meituan Takeaway, China Cuisine Association and China Environmental Protection Foundation jointly launched the Green Takeaway Industry Convention (Green Ten Articles) with a number of food and beverage take-away brands, including the content of "promoting the use of green tableware", and called on the scientific research community to provide intellectual support for the industry and develop degradable and environmentally friendly lunch boxes with high quality and low price. However, at present, the implementation of the "Green Ten" can only rely on industry self-discipline, and its effect needs time to test.

  ● Reporter’s Notes

  How to crack the garbage pollution of take-away packaging

  In many developed countries, the food take-away industry is very prosperous. Why are there no serious take-away garbage pollution in these countries?

  The reason is that in these countries, paper and degradable lunch boxes are the mainstream of take-away packaging. In the domestic catering industry, for the sake of cost, most merchants choose cheap plastic lunch boxes and abandon green lunch boxes such as degradable cartons. However, the manufacturing cost of plastic lunch boxes is low, but the environmental cost is very high.

  If you only hit the board on the ordering platform, it may be biased. The defects of relevant industrial policies and the imperfect garbage recycling system have greatly aggravated the seriousness of this problem. Just as Fang Peng said, to solve the pollution problem of take-away plastic waste, it is necessary to clearly define the responsibilities of individual consumers, take-away enterprises, garbage disposal enterprises and the government, and all parties should work together.

  The state should greatly increase the use cost of plastic lunch boxes and reduce the use cost of green lunch boxes such as paper boxes through tax leverage, so as to curb the source of take-away packaging pollution.

  In addition, the pollution of take-away packaging has also exposed the backwardness of the current garbage recycling system. At present, our garbage disposal is still in an extensive stage, and there is no effective classified recycling system. Take-away packaging, as a recyclable resource, has not been effectively recycled, resulting in annoying garbage. It not only causes pollution, but also brings waste.

  The take-away ordering platform needs to actively fulfill its environmental responsibilities and cannot turn a blind eye to the problem of increasing garbage. At the same time, it also needs an effective public governance mechanism under the leadership of the government for take-away packaging and garbage recycling. Only by working together can we find a way to crack the "garbage siege" of take-away packaging.

Seven departments jointly issued: strengthening the management of financial subsidies for benefiting the people and farmers

CCTV News:Yesterday (2nd), seven departments, including the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the National Audit Office, the the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office, and China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission jointly issued the Guiding Opinions on Further Strengthening the "One Card" Management of Financial Subsidies for Benefiting the People. The "Guiding Opinions" clarify that a long-term mechanism for supervision will be established and improved to ensure that all policies for benefiting the people and benefiting farmers will be effective.

According to "Guiding opinions",by 2023, all financial subsidies for benefiting people and benefiting farmers that are directly paid to households will be distributed in principle through the" one card "method. The work of cleaning up and integrating subsidy policies and funds, standardizing financial institutions, building a centralized and unified distribution platform, and strengthening public publicity has been basically completed. The supervision pattern of central planning, provincial overall responsibility, and implementation by cities and counties has been basically completed, and the "one list management system" and "one platform management and distribution" have been realized. The subsidy policy is more scientific and the performance of funds has been significantly improved.

Carry out special treatment to ensure timely and full payment of subsidies

universal debit/credit card"It has played a positive role in serving the masses conveniently, but when the relevant departments carried out special treatment, they found that the" one card "still had problems such as piecemeal cross-subsidy projects and irregular management of subsidy funds, which affected the implementation effect of the policy.

In 2019, seven ministries and commissions, including the Ministry of Finance, jointly carried out the "one card" special treatment of financial subsidy funds for benefiting the people and farmers nationwide, and found that the problems were mainly concentrated in three categories.

Gao Jinxing, Director of the Supervision and Evaluation Bureau of the Ministry of Finance:For example, the phenomenon of multiple policies, multiple lines of cards, separation of people and cards, and multiple cards for one person have made loopholes in management, so that some funds that ordinary people should get have not been obtained.

Gao Jinxing introduced that during the inspection, it was found that some subsidized households held more than 10 subsidized cards, resulting in more than one card for one person, and the phenomenon of "one card for one thing" and "multiple lines for one card" was also common. Some county-level departments require farmers to set up a new bank card every time they issue subsidies, and some provinces have 27 subsidized banks. These problems are not conducive to the distribution and management of subsidies, causing inconvenience to the people to receive subsidies, and there is a risk that subsidy funds will be taken by others and taken.

However, due to irregular management, violations of discipline and rules have occurred from time to time, and serious violations of the interests of the masses have occurred in some areas, and the amount of violations detected has reached more than 300 million yuan.

In addition, during the special treatment period, it was found that 7.638 billion yuan of subsidy funds were not paid in time, 1.62 billion yuan of idle funds were not revitalized for a long time, and individual subsidy projects were idle for 16 years. The subsidy payment was not timely and accurate, and the idle waste of subsidy funds was prominent.

Residents’ old-age security welcomes multiple benefits and raises the basic pension standard.

  October 17th is the Double Ninth Festival in China. The "Economic Information Daily" reporter was informed that China’s residents’ old-age security has once again ushered in multiple benefits in recent days. In terms of increasing pension benefits, Shenzhen and other places have intensively raised basic pensions, and many places are higher than national standards; 22 institutions compete for occupational annuity investors, and 700 billion yuan occupational annuity will enter the market soon; In improving the quality of old-age care, the combination of medical care and nursing care is accelerating, and the sixth insurance of social security — — Long-term care insurance has also begun to enter the full implementation period.

  Since the beginning of this year, many places have been raising the basic pension standard, and many places are higher than the minimum basic pension standard set by the state in 88 yuan. The People’s Social Security Bureau and the Finance Bureau of Xinjiang Corps issued a notice on the 15th, and since January 1, 2018, the minimum standard of basic old-age insurance for urban and rural residents has been raised from 115 yuan per person per month to 140 yuan per person per month, and the 25 yuan has been increased. A few days ago, Shenzhen proposed that from this year, if the household registration in this city is less than 8 years old, the basic pension will be raised from the original monthly 240 yuan to 280 yuan; Since the month following the 8th anniversary of the city’s household registration, the basic pension has been raised from 360 yuan to 420 yuan every month.

  The potential of the second pillar of old-age security is expected to be further released. Hunan Province recently issued a document to encourage employers to establish enterprise annuities, further clarifying the provisions on filing methods, payment methods, supervision and management of enterprise annuities. Occupational annuities will also enter the market. On October 16th, 22 institutions went to the Pension Insurance Management Center of the central state organs to receive the tender documents and compete for the qualification of occupational annuity investment managers of the central state organs and institutions. In the opinion of experts, occupational annuities, like pensions, rely on the capital market to effectively maintain and increase the value of funds.

  In terms of improving the quality of old-age care, the combination of medical care and long-term care insurance, which is accelerating, is highly anticipated. The data shows that there are about 4,000 medical and nursing institutions in China, with more than 1 million beds. "At present, the pilot network of combining medical care at the national, provincial and municipal levels has basically taken shape." Wang Lijuan, director of the Department of Health for the Aged in National Health Commission, said recently. However, she also admitted that a series of supportive policies and measures combining medical care with nursing care have not been implemented in some places. The absence of long-term care insurance and the lack of professionals also hinder the promotion of the combination of medical care and nursing.

  Guan Bo, an associate researcher at the Institute of Social Studies of China Macroeconomic Research Institute, said that the future reform of combining medical care with nursing care will focus on three aspects: on the supply side, make good use of the existing medical and health service network, and give play to the supporting role of grassroots medical and health institutions in providing for the elderly in home communities and institutions. On the demand side, accelerate the guidance of the health concept of the elderly, and change from focusing on treatment to focusing on health management. On the payment side, accelerate the development of a multi-level care security system to provide stable financing for the combination of medical care and nursing services.

  Zhang Yinghua, an executive researcher at the World Social Security Research Center of China Academy of Social Sciences, told the Economic Information Daily that all the pilot schemes for long-term care insurance were released at the end of last year, and now they have entered the full implementation period. The research on long-term care insurance is still intensive, and more and more non-pilot areas have begun to actively study programs. The implementation of the long-term insurance system is conducive to improving the quality of old-age care, and its pulling effect on the old-age care service industry is also emerging.

Practical construction of comprehensively promoting the construction of "Great Ideological and Political Course" in colleges and universities

  We should make good use of the "Great Ideological and Political Course" and combine it with reality. How to make good use of "Great Ideological and Political Course"? How to promote the construction of "Great Ideological and Political Course"? In July, 2022, the Work Plan for Comprehensively Promoting the Construction of "Great Ideological and Political Course" jointly issued by the Ministry of Education and other ten departments pointed out that it is necessary to hold ideological and political courses in an open door, fully mobilize the strength and resources of the whole society, build "big classes", build "big platforms" and build "big teachers", which pointed out the direction and provided action guidance for comprehensively promoting the construction of "Great Ideological and Political Course".

  Building a "big classroom" and expanding the position resources for comprehensively promoting the construction of "big ideological and political course""Big Classroom" is an important carrier of the construction of "Big Ideological and Political Course". Ideological and political lessons should be taught not only in class, but also in social life. The construction of "big classroom" should combine the small classroom of ideological and political education with the big classroom of society. The ideological and political course should make active use of social practice resources, combine with the vivid practice of Socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, fully tap the ideological and political education elements in the big social class, connect history with reality, connect theory with practice, base itself on domestic and international, guide college students to establish a correct outlook on life, values and world outlook, and strengthen the "four self-confidences". Society is also a school, so we should make good use of large social classes. We should let college students walk into social life, closely connect with real life, and open the ideological and political course in the fields, on the scene of voluntary service and social research, and in the practical teaching bases of "Great Ideological and Political Course" such as museums and memorial halls, so as to promote the ideological value guidance and the education of family and country feelings of college students in the process of practical education.

  The author believes that colleges and universities should co-ordinate the resources inside and outside the school, closely combine theory with practice, and improve the effectiveness of the "Great Ideological and Political Course". It is necessary to strengthen the construction of Marxist colleges, promote the construction of Marxist theoretical disciplines, and strengthen the distinctive background of the "Great Ideological and Political Course". It is necessary to promote the education and teaching reform of ideological and political courses, strengthen the curriculum group of ideological and political courses, expand the classroom teaching content, innovate the teaching form of ideological and political courses, enhance the ideological, theoretical, affinity and pertinence of ideological and political courses, make good use of classroom teaching as the main channel, talk about ideological and political courses that college students like, and let ideological and political education enter their minds. It is necessary to actively promote the cooperation between schools and places, jointly build a practical teaching base for ideological and political courses, set up a practical course for ideological and political courses in cooperation between schools and places, and actively dock the practical teaching base for "Great Ideological and Political Courses" so that students can get out of the classroom, go out of the school, go to the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, go deep into social life, understand the national economy and people’s livelihood, respond to the call of the times, and practice youth responsibility in social classrooms.

  Build a "big platform" to enrich the educational elements for comprehensively promoting the construction of "Great Ideological and Political Course"."Big Platform" is an important starting point for the construction of "Great Ideological and Political Course". Through the construction of the teaching and research system of ideological and political courses in colleges and universities nationwide, the construction and use of the national wisdom education platform will be promoted, and the online education publicity cloud platform and other channels will be built to build a large resource platform, which will provide strong support for the construction of "Great Ideological and Political Courses". Vigorously promote the digital construction of ideological and political courses, use digital technology to aggregate resources, create an all-round and three-dimensional ideological and political teaching resource library, and provide teachers with massive resources such as teaching materials. Give full play to the role of information technology, develop online demonstration course library, establish media publicity matrix, build a platform for "ideological and political course on the cloud", and build a networked, visual and convenient learning platform for college students.

  The author believes that colleges and universities should actively integrate into the platform construction of the "Great Ideological and Political Course", not only as builders and participants of the platform, but also as promoters and beneficiaries of the platform construction. Colleges and universities should vigorously develop "Digital Horse Institute" and realize the integrated development of modern information technology and ideological and political education. Colleges and universities should formulate policies to encourage teachers to make good use of the "National Network Collective Lesson Preparation Platform for Teachers of Ideological and Political Courses in Colleges and Universities", encourage teachers to develop demonstration cases of "Great Ideological and Political Courses", carry out teaching design competition activities, and build demonstration courses of "Great Ideological and Political Courses" to contribute to the construction of the platform. Colleges and universities should introduce measures to encourage students to use autonomous learning platform, encourage students to create works independently around the learning content, and carry out activities such as micro-video and micro-film contest for ideological and political courses, so as to provide students with a display platform and enhance their sense of acquisition and participation.

  Build a "great teacher" and lay a solid foundation for comprehensively promoting the construction of "great ideological and political course""Great teachers" is an important guarantee for the construction of "Great Ideological and Political Course". The key to running ideological and political theory courses well lies in teachers, and the key lies in giving full play to their enthusiasm, initiative and creativity. It is necessary to tap the potential internally and attract external help to create a team of teachers who are both full-time and part-time. It is necessary to build a strong team of ideological and political teachers, strengthen the ideological and political ability of specialized courses, give full play to the ideological and political functions of specialized course teachers, and actively attract party and government leaders, scientists, veteran comrades and advanced models to join the team of part-time teachers of ideological and political courses. It is necessary to build a research platform for "big teachers" and strengthen the teaching research of Marxist theory and ideological and political courses. In order to improve the comprehensive ability of "big teachers" and do a good job in the training of "big ideological and political course" teachers, the excavation and integration of ideological and political elements should not be a simple and blunt insertion, but should give full play to teachers’ subjective initiative and creativity and organically integrate them in a silent way. In the new era, the teachers of "Great Ideological and Political Course" should be both "Confucian classics teachers" and "human teachers", and should be the unification of "Confucian classics teachers" and "human teachers".

  The author believes that colleges and universities should strengthen system construction and build a team of high-quality ideological and political teachers. Establish and improve the distinguished professor system and part-time teacher system for ideological and political courses, and invite outstanding local party and government leading cadres, advanced models in various industries, heroes, great country craftsmen and other advanced representatives to join the ideological and political course teachers; It is necessary to establish a special system to support teachers of ideological and political courses to "go out" and go deep into the grassroots, enrich their social experiences and improve their practical teaching ability. The party secretary and president of colleges and universities should take the lead in teaching ideological and political courses in the classroom, and make use of important occasions such as the opening ceremony and graduation ceremony to educate people. Colleges and universities should take measures to encourage ideological and political course teachers to strengthen theoretical and practical research, strengthen the training of ideological and political course teachers, and promote the high-quality development of ideological and political course teachers.

  Promoting the construction of "Great Ideological and Political Course" in an all-round way is an important measure to implement the fundamental task of educating people in Lide in the new era. Under the guidance of "Work Plan for Comprehensively Promoting the Construction of" Great Ideological and Political Course ",colleges and universities should deepen the reform of the mechanism and system, take effective measures to build" Great Classroom ","Big Platform "and" Great Teachers ",create a golden course of" Great Ideological and Political Course ",and cultivate new people of the times who can shoulder the heavy responsibility of national rejuvenation.

Ministry of Justice: Seriously investigate the legal responsibility of false judicial expertise

  (Reporter Lu Yue) On August 15th, the Ministry of Justice publicly solicited opinions on the revised Measures for the Administration of the Registration of Judicial Authentication Institutions (Revised Draft for Comment) and the Measures for the Administration of the Registration of Judicial Appraisers (Revised Draft for Comment), stipulating that the legal liability of appraisers and authentication institutions for making false appraisals will be seriously investigated.

  The newly revised exposure draft has made new provisions on the access conditions of judicial authentication institutions and appraisers. The "Measures for the Registration of Institutions" has raised the entry threshold for judicial authentication institutions, and increased the entry funds from 200,000 yuan to 1 million yuan. At the same time, new cancellation situations are added, including unauthorized suspension of business or suspension of business for more than one year; Failing to pass the extension audit at the expiration of the validity period; The legal person or unincorporated organization that established the appraisal institution is terminated according to law; The administrative license is revoked or withdrawn according to law.

  The reporter noticed that the newly revised draft for comment added: the legal responsibility of appraisers and appraisal institutions for false appraisal was seriously investigated. It stipulates that if a judicial appraiser provides false certification documents or adopts other fraudulent means to defraud registration and deliberately make false appraisal, the provincial judicial administrative organ will give him a punishment of stopping practicing for more than three months and less than one year. If the circumstances are serious, the registration will be revoked, which constitutes a crime. Criminal responsibility will be investigated according to law.

  If the judicial authentication institution violates the regulations, it will face the punishment of stopping business for more than 3 months and less than 1 year, and the registration will be revoked if the circumstances are serious. Judicial appraisers practice avoidance, confidentiality, time limit and accountability system for wrong appraisal and false appraisal.

Many deputies to the National People’s Congress and members of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference suggested that trafficking in women and children should be "the same crime of buyi

The protection of women and children’s rights and interests has attracted much attention from the society.

"It is necessary to focus on a number of clues, especially for women and children who are vagrants and beggars of unknown origin, mental disorders, deaf-mute disabilities, etc., to ensure that the base number is clear and the situation is clear."

The Ministry of Public Security has decided to launch a special campaign against the crime of abducting and selling women and children from March 1st to December 31st.

Many NPC deputies and CPPCC members who have long been concerned about relevant aspects said in an interview with Beijing Youth Daily.Protecting women’s rights and interests is a systematic project that requires the joint efforts of the whole society. They suggested that the legal penalty for buying and selling abducted women should be raised and "the same crime of buying and selling" should be implemented.

  Jiang Shengnan, NPC deputy.

  Pay attention to the victims’ follow-up suggestions and clarify the responsibility of relief.

  At the two sessions this year, Jiang Shengnan, a deputy to the National People’s Congress and a researcher at Wenzhou University, who has long been concerned about the protection of women’s rights and interests, brought a proposal to amend Article 240 of the Criminal Law and increase the prison term of crime of trafficking in women and children buyers, and a proposal on promoting the national multi-sectoral joint abduction campaign and the follow-up rescue series. She suggested that the term of imprisonment of buyers in crime of trafficking in women and children should be increased, so as to realize the same crime of buying and selling and improve the deterrent effect. At the same time, a general survey should be conducted to rescue women’s trafficking, and a follow-up comprehensive rescue mechanism should be established. She believes that protecting women’s rights and interests is a systematic project that requires the joint efforts of the whole society.

  The basic penalty for the crime of abducting and selling women and children stipulated in Article 240 of the Criminal Law is fixed-term imprisonment of not less than five years but not more than ten years. If there are particularly serious circumstances, it can be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than ten years or life imprisonment or even death. Article 241 of the Criminal Law stipulates: "Whoever buys abducted women and children shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance." "If a woman or child who has been trafficked is bought, and there is no abuse of the bought child, and it does not hinder her rescue, she can be given a lighter punishment. According to the wishes of the bought woman, if she does not hinder her return to her original place of residence, she can be given a lighter or mitigated punishment." Jiang Shengnan said, however, in practice, faced with felonies such as rape, illegal detention and intentional injury caused by abducted women for several years or even decades, the "buyer" may only be sentenced for minor crimes such as "abduction" or "abuse", and the maximum sentence for the crime of simply buying women and children is only three years.

  "I suggest to raise the starting point of crime of trafficking in women and children’s punishment and stipulate that buying and selling are the same crime. Appropriately increasing the penalty will have a certain deterrent effect on bribery and improving the criminal law. " Jiang Shengnan said.

  The "Proposal on Promoting the National Multi-sectoral Joint Abduction Action and the Follow-up Rescue Series Project" brought by it is suggested that the Central Political and Legal Committee should take the lead and refer to the special rectification activities to eliminate evils. The Abduction Office of the Ministry of Public Security is responsible for organizing abduction activities and establishing a vertical linkage mechanism to promote the normalization of abduction throughout the country.

  Specific suggestions include improving the community-based, township-based network to prevent human trafficking and comprehensively rectifying key areas of human trafficking. Further strengthen the construction of information network, improve the national anti-trafficking DNA information base, improve the information collection and exchange mechanism, promote information sharing, and improve the informationization level of anti-trafficking work; Incorporate the abduction work into the assessment category of local government’s safe construction, and the annual assessment results will serve as an important basis for the comprehensive assessment and evaluation of relevant leading cadres; Strengthen legal publicity and education, get rid of feudal bad habits, enhance the legal awareness of grassroots people, and improve the awareness and ability of women and children.

  Jiang Shengnan also suggested the establishment of a follow-up linkage mechanism for the abduction, so that the follow-up assistance to the victims can not be relaxed, so that the investigated abduction cases can be dealt with promptly and effectively. It is suggested that the marriage and adoption relationship between women and children who are bought should be invalid. The marriage and adoption relationship based on the crime of bribery, because it violates the legal provisions and the true wishes of the parties, should be regarded as invalid from the beginning, and will not produce any rights and obligations related to marriage and adoption. At the same time, it should also be clear that the government of the buying place bears the relief responsibility. The relief standard can refer to the national compensation standard, and the period is from the day of being trafficked and bought to the day of being rescued. If the local government is slow to provide relief, the victim or guardian may claim rights according to the application procedure of state compensation. Text/reporter Li Zewei

  Zhang Baoyan, NPC deputy.

  Life-long accountability for the criminals of trafficking in new cases.

  Zhang Baoyan, chairman of the Baby Home Volunteers Association and founder of Baby Home Search Subnet, has been speaking out for the rescue of abducted children and women since he was elected as a representative of the National People’s Congress.

  In Zhang Baoyan’s view, with the progress and development of society, people have a deeper understanding of the crime of trafficking, and all walks of life have taken action to publicize anti-trafficking in their own way and help families seeking relatives and abducted women and children with their own strength.

  "The whole society is calling for cracking down on traffickers and even demanding the death penalty. This kind of voice is getting louder and louder. People urgently hope that the state can intensify its efforts to crack down on trafficking in women and children, punish them severely and quickly, demonstrate social justice, and severely punish criminals who traffic in women and children. "

  Zhang Baoyan told the reporter of Beiqing Daily that this year, she suggested that the buyer’s sentencing should not be lower than the crime of trafficking, but should be heavier than the crime of trafficking.

  "Because the abduction of women and children is actually a kidnapping, it is accompanied by many crimes such as abuse, illegal detention, rape, etc. At the same time, it has also caused long-term mental damage to the families of abducted women and children, so the minimum reference should be made to the crime of kidnapping for at least ten years."

  At the same time, she said that because the infringement of the victim has occurred in the buyer’s home for a long time, the buyer’s sentencing should not be lower than the crime of trafficking, but should be more important than the crime of trafficking.

  Zhang Baoyan also suggested that criminals (including buyers) in new cases of trafficking should be held accountable for life.

  She said that China’s criminal law stipulates that the maximum limitation of action is 20 years. "But in fact, the harm of the crime of trafficking is long-standing, and the harm caused by this criminal act to the victim’s family and victims is lifelong. Therefore, the accountability of trafficking criminals should not be limited by the statute of limitations, but should be pursued for life. "

  At the same time, she mentioned that all localities have conducted a thorough investigation of women and children of unknown origin within their jurisdiction, and it has been a long-term work, especially for mentally ill women and deaf-mute women who have been taken in privately, and the information has been made public after investigation to help them find their loved ones.

  "It is recommended to establish an assessment mechanism for relevant departments in the abduction area, and implement a one-vote veto for the target assessment of grassroots governments with new abduction cases. The main responsible persons of grassroots governments shall not be promoted within five years." Zhang Baoyan said. Text/reporter Meng Yaxu

  Zhang Jingjing, deputy to the National People’s Congress

  It is suggested to set up a national special fund for abduction.

  Zhang Jingjing, deputy to the National People’s Congress and dean of the International College of Jingdezhen Ceramic University, also paid attention to the problem of trafficking in women. She suggested that the crackdown on the crime of trafficking in women should be intensified through various measures, including increasing the legal penalty for buying trafficked women and implementing the crime of "buying and selling the same". At the same time, in terms of the technology of trafficking, she suggested strengthening cross-regional cooperation and information resource sharing, increasing scientific and technological investment, and implementing "online abduction" and "online rescue".

  Zhang Jing suggested that the legal punishment for buying and selling trafficked women should be increased, and the "same crime of buying and selling" should be implemented, and the crackdown should be intensified through legal means. Zhang Jingjing believes that whoever abducts and sells women, no matter which link it is, as long as it is for the purpose of selling, has one of the acts of kidnapping, kidnapping, buying, selling, picking up, transferring and harboring women, regardless of the number of abductions and whether it is profitable or not, should be investigated for criminal responsibility for the crime of abducting and selling women. Those who buy trafficked women and hinder the rescue of trafficked women, which constitutes a crime, should also be punished according to law. In handling cases, we should correctly distinguish the boundaries between crime and non-crime, crime and crime, especially the crime of abducting and selling women and the act of introducing marriage to collect money and goods, so as to prevent expanding the scope of attack or indulging in crime.

  Zhang Jingjing believes that raising the statutory penalty may not immediately curb the crime of abducting and selling women and children, but by raising the statutory penalty, it can help Yu Congrong to effectively deal with various types of crimes and achieve the same crime and punishment.

  On the technology of abduction, Zhang Jingjing suggested strengthening cross-regional cooperation and information resources sharing, increasing investment in science and technology, and implementing "online abduction", "online rescue" and DNA paternity work. In order to effectively punish criminals who abduct and sell women, it is necessary to strengthen basic work at the grass-roots level, conduct a thorough investigation on traffickers and abducted women, and ensure that "villages do not leak villages, villages do not leak households, and households do not leak people" and resolutely put an end to local protectionism.

  She also suggested that it is necessary to further improve the social management system, increase the intensity of comprehensive management, and form a situation in which the whole society will work together. Party committees and governments at all levels must stand at the height of "stressing politics", earnestly strengthen the organization and leadership of the work of "abduction", be willing to invest in human, financial and material resources, and pay close attention to the struggle of abduction as a major event to maintain social stability. Public security, civil affairs and other relevant departments should strictly implement account management. Temporary population, floating population registration, marriage registration, adoption registration and other laws, regulations and rules and regulations, plug loopholes and find clues of abducted women and traffickers in time. Labor, industry and commerce departments should further clean up and rectify the labor market, strictly manage the market, and avoid women who are eager to find jobs being deceived. Civil Affairs Women’s Federation and other organizations should do a good job in the resettlement of rescued abducted women and children, such as the transfer of children’s accounts of abducted women and other related social security. For abducted women, local people’s organizations and women’s federations should help them find jobs, guide them to return to normal life, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of abducted women.

  Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference Commissioner Hu Wei

  Establish a warning system to form a "tight encirclement"

  Hu Wei, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and member of the Central Committee of the Democratic Progressive Party, was also concerned about the abduction and trafficking of women and children. To crack down on trafficking, Hu Wei suggested using technical means to establish a warning system and mobilize the whole society to form a "tight encirclement" for abduction.

  In April last year, the General Office of the State Council issued the Action Plan against Human Trafficking in China (2021-2030), which clearly stipulated that it is necessary to adhere to and improve the long-term mechanism of anti-trafficking work that integrates prevention, crackdown, assistance, resettlement and rehabilitation, and constantly improve the level of anti-trafficking work in the rule of law, coordination, science and technology and socialization. Recently, special actions have been deployed in relevant areas to comprehensively and thoroughly investigate and rectify the rights and interests of groups such as women and children, people with mental disorders and the disabled, and severely crack down on illegal and criminal acts such as abducting and selling women and children and buying abducted women and children.

  Hu Wei suggested that the legal system should be improved as to how this series of abduction actions can really achieve practical results. "If there is no sale, there will be no harm, and the same crime should be adhered to. At the same time, mandatory reporting must be implemented to combat human trafficking. It is suggested that it should be clearly stipulated that if the person in charge of the relevant area finds human trafficking but fails to report it and causes serious consequences, it should be listed as an illegal act and punished." Secondly, it is necessary to formulate a specific action plan, clarify the way and time node, and the relevant departments should really unite to carry out the investigation. In addition, it is necessary to make a breakthrough in technology to form a "tight encirclement" of abduction.

  Hu Wei believes: "We can make full use of technical means to deploy a warning system. In the event of human trafficking or kidnapping, we can prompt relevant information at the first time on TV, radio, mobile phones, big screens in public places such as airports, docks and stations, and even electronic bulletin boards on highways, and mobilize as many resources as possible from public institutions, cities, villages and communities to find missing persons, so that criminals have nowhere to hide. At present, our network technology and intelligent system are so developed that it is easier to do and do well than ever before. "

  Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference Commissioner Zhu Zhengfu

  Criminal responsibility should be investigated for "obstructing rescue"

  Zhu Zhengfu, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and chairman of the partner meeting of Haotianxin Law Firm, has long been concerned about the protection of women’s and children’s rights and interests. During the two sessions this year, he is going to submit "Seven Suggestions on Severely Combating the Crime of Trafficking and Buying Women and Children". Zhu Zhengfu suggested that buying should be the same crime as abducting and selling, and in the process of the victim being abducted and bought, any behavior that helps to maintain and restore the victim’s state of detention, coercion and violation should be regarded as a joint crime of abducting and selling.

  He suggested that Article 241 of the Criminal Law should be amended to "be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or control" for the crime of buying abducted women and children, and refer to Article 240 for the punishment of the crime of abducting and selling women and children, and be changed to "be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than five years but not more than ten years and be fined". Whoever buys more than three women and children, commits adultery with the bought women and children, illegally detains or forces the bought women and children to work, and causes serious injuries (including serious mental illness), death or other serious consequences to the abducted women and children or their relatives, "shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years or life imprisonment, and shall also be fined or confiscated; If the circumstances are particularly serious, he shall be sentenced to death and his property shall be confiscated. " In the process of the victim being abducted and bought, any act that helps to maintain and restore the victim’s state of detention, coercion and violation shall be regarded as a joint crime of abduction or buying, and criminal responsibility shall be investigated according to the provisions of Article 240 or 241 of the Criminal Law.

  He also suggested expanding the scope of application of self-defense, from the day when the victim was abducted to the day when he was rescued, and excluding the application of excessive defense to the self-defense behavior and rescue behavior of the victim and those who helped rescue him. During this period, all acts of violence by the victim against the perpetrator should be regarded as acts of self-defense.

  Zhu Zhengfu believes that the most urgent task at the moment is to conduct a nationwide comprehensive investigation and rescue of women and children who may be trafficked. The Ministry of Public Security announced that from March 1 to December 31, a special campaign was launched to crack down on the crime of abducting and selling women and children, comprehensively sorting out clues to investigate the rights and interests of women and children, and focusing on investigating suspected abducted persons. He suggested that those who should know but don’t know, who know but don’t report or who are slow to rescue can be dismissed, and those who constitute a crime can be investigated for criminal responsibility according to the provisions of the crime of dereliction of duty in Article 397 of the Criminal Law, or accomplices who kidnap and buy women and children. Anyone who obstructs the rescue in any way shall be investigated for criminal responsibility according to different situations, such as the crime of obstructing official duties, the crime of gathering people to obstruct the rescue of bought women and children, and the joint crime of buying women and children.

Female college students peel crayfish part-time: charge 15% service fee, and peel 12 Jin a night when they are busy.

  Specially peeling crayfish for guests, with a service charge of 15%. Recently, a restaurant in Huangpu District of Shanghai launched such a "shrimp peeling service on behalf of customers" and hired two part-time "shrimp peelers".

  On May 23, 2018, He Nanxin peeled crayfish in the restaurant. The Paper reporter He Yingwei Intern Zhu Yushe

  Soon after the service was launched, it quickly sparked a heated discussion on the Internet. Some netizens questioned the store’s "making gimmicks" and worried about the sanitary condition of peeling shrimp. A reporter from The Paper (www.thepaper.cn) visited and learned that two part-time "shrimpers" in this restaurant are college students. When peeling shrimps, they will wear disposable gloves and white masks, and they can sit opposite the customers to peel shrimps, or they can take them to the kitchen and serve them to the customers’ table. When business is good, a "shrimp peeler" can earn 300 yuan a night.

  What are the food safety standards for crayfish shops to launch on-site lobster peeling service? In this regard, Zhang Lei, deputy director of the Food and Beverage Supervision Department of Shanghai Food and Drug Administration, told The Paper that peeling crayfish on the spot is similar to cutting the skin of roast duck on the spot. Shrimp peelers should hold health certificates, wash their hands and disinfect before operation (if tools are used, they should also be cleaned and disinfected), and the peeled shrimps should be eaten in time.

  The store told The Paper that all employees in the store have health certificates, and two part-time shrimpers have also obtained health certificates, one of whom is valid from October 2017 to October 2018, and has produced an electronic certificate.

  Part-time "shrimpers" are all female college students.

  On May 23rd, a reporter from The Paper visited the site and learned that at present, two part-time waiters in the store are college students who work part-time. They wear disposable gloves when peeling shrimps for customers, and they don’t communicate too much. According to the store, the service will continue, and other waiters will also provide shrimp peeling service when the business is hot on holidays.

  This restaurant, which offers the service of peeling shrimp on behalf of customers, is located in Huaihai Middle Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai. At 18: 00 on May 23, the night market had just started. When He Nanxin, a part-time shrimp peeling waiter, arrived at the store, he put on an apron in the store first, and picked up a broom to help clean up before the customers arrived. Transparent disposable gloves and a white mask are prepared in the pocket of her apron. "This is to ensure the hygiene of peeling shrimp for customers."

  He Nanxin is from Xinjiang. She is a senior this year. She said that she didn’t really eat shrimp since she was a child. She didn’t learn to peel crayfish until she came to this restaurant for a part-time job. "Now the peeling is becoming more and more skilled. There is nothing special about peeling shrimp, that is, there will be some pain in the fingers after working every day." She said that on weekends when business is booming, she has to peel nearly 12 pounds of crayfish every night and earn more than 300 yuan a night. "Working part-time at night will not hinder daily study, but also support herself with labor."

  Will such service be embarrassing? He Nanxin said that in her own view, this is also the relationship between the waiter and the consumer. At work, she usually doesn’t talk to customers very much, and occasionally she talks a few words, mainly focusing on peeling shrimp. The faster she peels, the more she earns. ""Some netizens doubt our work, but I actually come to work part-time and work as a waiter. " He Nanxin said that he will continue to insist on this part-time job.

  Hotel: Beauty is not the only criterion for recruitment.

  On the day of The Paper reporter’s visit, a customer inquired about this service, saying that this service is quite innovative and can really save a lot of trouble, but it may be more suitable for customers who come to eat alone. Otherwise, it will be awkward for friends to have dinner and someone will sit opposite them. It will be much better if the shrimp can be peeled off and served.

  A few days ago, this "shrimp peeling on behalf of customers" service also caused a heated discussion on the Internet. Some netizens questioned that the store was "making gimmicks" and worried about the sanitary condition of the service. Some even wondered whether there were additional services or hidden consumption.

  "Every time a service is provided, the clerk will first explain to the customer that this service only involves peeling shrimp." Huang Meng, the manager of the store, said that this shrimp peeling service started in early May and may last until the end of September. Shrimp peeling service will charge 15% of the price of crayfish dishes as a service fee, which belongs to the shrimp peeling staff and is settled daily without going through the store account. "During the trial operation, we found that some customers wanted to play with their mobile phones while eating. Some female customers were worried that the shrimp shells were too hard and would hurt their fingers because of manicure. They all hoped that a waiter could help peel crayfish, so we wanted to launch a shrimp peeling service based on customers’ needs."

  Huang Meng said that they were also inspired by the idea of this service. Since the barbecue can be roasted by the waiter, the crayfish can also be peeled by the waiter. At present, there are two shrimpers in the restaurant, both of whom are college students who come to work part-time. Considering the convenience and safety of part-time college students, the general working hours of shrimp peeling waiters are from 6 pm to 11 pm. Based on the customer’s demand, the shrimp peeling waiter can sit opposite the customer and peel the shrimp continuously, or take it to the kitchen and serve it after peeling. When the business is booming on weekends or holidays, other waiters will also provide shrimp peeling service, and they will also charge 15% service fee, which will be owned by the waiter.

  "In fact, the purpose of launching this service is to let diners enjoy food better. I didn’t expect the focus of the network to be so different. We don’t use beauty as the sole criterion for recruitment, but all recruitment in the service industry is to find a good look. " Huang Meng said that this shrimp peeling service will continue at present, and efforts will be made to improve the quality of this service, and medical masks will be purchased for waiters in the future.

CCTV Review | Three Questions: Who is the "black protection" around big polluters?

  CCTV News:On April 18th, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment announced that it had joined hands with the Shanxi Provincial People’s Government to supervise the environmental violations of Sanwei Group in Hongdong County, Shanxi Province (for details, click: 4.5 billion assets listed companies dumped industrial waste, such as waterfalls, CCTV reporters were detained unannounced), and jointly punished the group with the CSRC.

  On April 17th, CCTV Finance "Economic Half-hour" reported "Three-dimensional Group in Hongdong County, Shanxi Province illegally dumped industrial waste residue to pollute farmland, and the production wastewater was discharged directly into Fenhe River, and CCTV reporters were detained unannounced". In this regard, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment stated in the announcement issued on April 18th that measures have been taken:

  First, the joint supervision of the Shanxi Provincial People’s Government requires the Linfen Municipal People’s Government to strictly investigate the illegal sewage discharge behavior of enterprises, the performance of government and regulatory authorities and other issues in accordance with the law, and make them public in a timely manner.

  Second, it will jointly punish the listed companies of Sanwei Group with the CSRC. Our department has informed the CSRC of the environmental violation information of Sanwei Group for the first time, and conducted joint investigation and punishment according to the memorandum of cooperation on joint punishment of environmental violations of listed companies.

  The announcement also stated that Shanxi Province also attached great importance to this and responded at the first time. The Environmental Protection Department of Shanxi Province set up the "4.17 Report on the Environmental Problems of Shanxi Sanwei Group" and rushed to the scene on the night of the report to supervise, organize forces to conduct on-the-spot investigation on the contaminated site, monitor the waste water and industrial waste residue, and administratively detain two village cadres according to law. At present, various investigations are under way.

  Then, why can such a big polluter pollute the environment for a long time and unscrupulously? What is the real problem behind it? Who is acting as their "black protection"?

Cctv review

  Shanxi Sanwei Group has been illegally dumping industrial waste residue, polluting a lot of farmland and discharging industrial wastewater directly into Fenhe River, which has brought serious threats to the lives of people in villages along the way. The news media even used "evil deeds" to describe this shocking incident of stealing platoon.

  Here, we must ask a few more why!

  Do the three-dimensional group leaders, especially the group leaders, know what they are doing?

  Sanwei Group is an enterprise that produces hundreds of chemical products such as polyvinyl alcohol, adhesive, benzene and coke. As a listed company with 4.5 billion assets, do you know how to treat the wastewater, carbide slag and fly ash produced by the enterprise?

  Calcium carbide slag and fly ash need to be stored in a special yard and managed strictly, and industrial wastewater must be treated in compliance before it can be discharged. However, the three-dimensional group has been dumping industrial waste into the pit without impervious layer for a long time, and the wastewater is also directly discharged into Fenhe River, the mother river of Shanxi Province. Business leaders don’t know whether it is dereliction of duty or dereliction of duty? It is even more terrible if you know it, whether it is directly directed or not.

  Why do local governments and environmental protection departments turn a blind eye to sewage discharge?

  The media has long noticed that the three-dimensional group has seriously polluted the environment by illegally discharging pollutants.

  As early as 2014, China Youth Network reported the fact that "Shanxi Three-dimensional Pollution has been confirmed by the Environmental Protection Bureau for nearly 40 years";

  In 2016, national business daily also exposed the news that "Shanxi Sanweicheng environmental protection boss was investigated every year";

  In 2017, a survey by China Legal Reporting Network found that Shanxi illegally dumped industrial waste residue to pollute farmland;

  In 2017, the Ministry of Environmental Protection sent eight inspectors to inspect 13 cities, and Sanwei Group was one of the inspected objects.

  With such intensive media attention and under the supervision of the Inspector Group of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, how did the local government and environmental protection departments respond and solve the problem? Don’t you turn a blind eye to the media reports and the inspectors of the competent departments? Why do local government departments turn a blind eye to sewage discharge?

  Why are village cadres at the grassroots level willing to guard the door for polluting enterprises?

  In the interview, the reporter found that the people around him had long complained, but they dared not speak out. The villagers said, there is no need to reflect, which one of the cadres in the village doesn’t know? The real situation is that in the face of the lawless and unscrupulous environmental pollution behavior of enterprises, local village cadres have acted as thugs for polluting enterprises to guard their homes. Villagers and journalists have said a few words and are worried that they will be retaliated.

   It can be said that this scene in Hongtong County has reached the point of absurdity. Listed companies are lawless in discharging pollutants, village cadres pay money to guard the hospital, and the Environmental Protection Bureau ignores corporate pollution. Reports from local villagers range from verbal warnings to suffering from skin and flesh. When they talk to reporters, they must worry about retaliation. After repeated media exposure, environmental protection special inspectors, pollution has become increasingly serious. There are too many reasons to answer and too many questions to explain.

  Polluting enterprises should be investigated and punished, and the umbrella behind them should be destroyed. At present, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment has cooperated with the Shanxi Provincial Government to supervise the environmental violations of Sanwei Group, and the local authorities have also formed a joint investigation team.We will be interesting to see who makes the people dare to speak out, who makes the central government’s policies unable to be implemented here, and who makes the national laws unable to be implemented here.

Break the waves and show the elegance of aquatic athletes

□ Our reporter Xing Hanfu

On July 30th, 2017 China Rowing Open (Harbin Station) kicked off in the waters of one lake and three islands in Songbei District, Harbin. More than 320 rowers showed their elegant demeanor in water sports, bringing a visual feast to the citizens of Ice City.

The reporter saw at the scene that opening performances such as motorboats, paragliders and flyboard were being held. The athletes were driving motorboats, and sometimes they turned sharply to stir up waves, and sometimes they jumped out of the water. The wonderful water performances won warm applause from the audience. The audience took out their mobile phones and kept shooting.

In the athletes’ preparation area, when the reporter saw Daniel, the leader of Cambridge University, he was helping the team to debug the rowing boat. "This time we participated in the 8-person helmsman project. In order to prepare for this competition, the team members prepared for it four months in advance, hoping to achieve good results." Daniel told reporters that the atmosphere of rowing competition in Harbin is very good and the track is very professional. I hope to have the opportunity to come here more often.

At 9: 45, the contest officially started. As the whistle sounded, the rowing boat that had been waiting for a long time on the water suddenly ejected. With the rhythmic rowing, the rowing boat was like an arrow on the water. The appearance of rowing teams at home and abroad quickly ignited the enthusiasm of the audience, and the sound of refueling on the shore came one after another.

Shanghai Rowing Club won three championships in this competition and became the biggest winner. "In order to meet this competition, they prepare for the war three months in advance, and they have to carry out launching training at least four times a week. They also carry out movements and physical training on the shore." Yin Liang, the leader of Shanghai Rowing Club, told reporters that this competition gave them a rare opportunity to communicate with strong rowing teams at home and abroad.

"Harbin is a city that loves sports. It seems to be accidental to hold the rowing open in Harbin for the first time last year, but it is actually inevitable. Because folk rowing was first developed in Harbin, and it has been maintained. I believe that this event will be better next year. " Wang Shi, chairman of the Asian Rowing Federation and honorary chairman of the board of directors of Vanke Group, said.

Wang Shi also made a commitment to hold this event in Harbin next year. "The third year of the Harbin Rowing Open must be more successful and happy. The sign of success is not only more athletes and more teams to participate, but more people in our city, middle school students, college students and citizens to participate. I hope to see middle school students and college students in Harbin enter the finals next year. " Wang Shi told reporters.

The reporter learned that the China Rowing Open (Harbin Station) has been warmly sought after by sports enthusiasts and citizens since it was held twice. The internationalization of this competition has been further deepened. The contestants are all professional and amateur high-level rowers registered with the China Rowing Association, and also attracted athletes from Britain, Israel, Thailand and other countries to participate. This year’s competition will set up a new land rowing exhibition, and the competition area and experience area will be set up in the stadium. The citizens can personally participate in and experience the land simulation training of rowing. The development of this activity has effectively narrowed the distance between rowing and citizens and promoted the vigorous development of rowing in Harbin.

A return visit to the case of "college students digging birds" sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment: Yan Xiaotian was released from prison at the end of this month, and another party was released from

  

Yan Aimin came to the scene when his son dug out the bird’s nest.

  After he was released from prison in August last year, Wang Yajun went to Yan Xiaotian’s house for the first time. Yan Xiaotian’s mother didn’t recognize him at first sight because she was wearing a hat with a mysterious expression. Before going to prison, 27-year-old Wang Yajun was a worker in a local auto parts factory.

  During the summer vacation in July, 2014, Yan Xiaotian, a freshman of Zhengzhou Vocational and Technical College, and Wang Yajun, a fellow villager, dug out two nests of 16 birds and resold them. After identification, 14 of them were Yanfalcon, a national second-class protected animal, and the other two were Falconidae. The two were sentenced to 10 and a half years and 10 years respectively.

  In this case, Yan Xiaotian received more attention than Wang Yajun because of his status as a "college student". At the end of this month, Yan Xiaotian, whose sentence has been reduced for 20 months, will also be released from prison, and his family is decorating his room and waiting for his return.

  Yan Xiaotian’s father:

  "The most important thing is to live a good life with my son."

  Yan xiaotian’s father, Yan aimin, recently renamed his Tik Tok name as "Yan xiaotian’s father in the case of college students digging out birds". Of the five updates since April 13th this year, four were about the case of digging out birds. There are obviously more fans who like comments than before.

  "Waiting for the stars to look forward to the moon, but now it’s finally over." Yan Aimin said, "He is only 29 years old. Although the best years have been abandoned, it is not too late."

  The plan of Yan Aimin’s husband and wife is that after the son comes out, he should first raise his body and then "think about his business." "It will take him at least half a year to adapt to the present society."

  It has been suggested that with the attention of the "bird-digging case", Yan Xiaotian can open a video number and make a live broadcast after he is released from prison. In this regard, Yan Aimin said that as long as the law allows, it is good for the child’s future, and he does not object. What he wants now is to live a good life with his son while he is still capable. "This is the most important thing, to live your life in peace."

  "Whether to continue to complain in the future depends on the meaning of my son. But it will always be a hurdle in my heart, and I am embarrassed about my son. " Yan Aimin said that he could not overcome this hurdle in his life.

  Wang Yajun is also inquiring about the specific date of Yan Xiaotian’s release from prison, and he is thinking of picking him up. He didn’t answer the reporter’s question about whether he would appeal. He said, "I don’t want to talk about this issue again," but added, "Many people don’t understand animal taxonomy, and I have been studying and studying."

  Wang Yajun who has been released from prison:

  In prison, I always watch animal programs during breaks.

  After he was released from prison in August, 2022, Wang Yajun went back to work in the auto parts factory where he worked before he went to prison. Polishing auto parts, getting a piece-rate salary, earning about 6 thousand yuan a month.

  "I didn’t know ‘ Falcon ’ This word. " Wang Yajun dropped out of junior high school before he graduated. Although they are fellow villagers, Wang Yajun and Yan Xiaotian are not familiar with each other. Their age difference is six years, and what they have in common is that they have both raised pigeons.

  "I forgot how the idea of digging birds came out and who put it forward." After many years, Wang Yajun said that he only remembered that there were many poplars and many bird’s nests in the village at that time.

  On the day when the detention center learned that he had been sentenced to 10 years, Wang Yajun said that he was "devastated" and "unimaginable".

  After being transferred to prison, Wang Yajun began to "wonder what the problem is". During the break, when others are not watching TV, Wang Yajun will "watch programs related to animals". He began to teach himself animal taxonomy.
