BEIJING, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- Wu Di, working as a secretary at a department at the elite Peking University, has to sacrifice privacy for lower rent.She now shares one room of a two-bedroom apartment, furnished with two single beds, and splits the monthly rent of 1,500 yuan (224 U.S. dollars) with a female friend.Wu moved to the new apartment two weeks ago. She used to share a two-bedroom apartment with a family of three, after she graduated from college in June 2010."I paid 1,250 yuan monthly. It was too much for me as I only earned 3,000 yuan a month," said Wu. "Besides, the family next door was very noisy."Although the current rent relieved her financial difficulty a bit, she hoped to pay less."Nearly one-third of my salary goes to rent. I am always very careful about spending money," she said.A survey done by the China Youth Daily Survey Center in December last year showed that 81.6 percent of 4,060 surveyed tenants around China thought that their rent had increased, and 80.6 percent said the soaring rent has greatly affected their lives.More and more young, white-collar Chinese have found themselves in an embarrassing situation: they have to bear a heavy financial burden from soaring rent and housing prices while not qualifying to enjoy preferential policies the government offers to low-income people, such as low-rent apartments.Lu Wei, a programmer working at a leading portable website, witnessed the housing rent increasing over the past four years."It would cost nearly 1,000 yuan less per month for a midium-decorated two-bedroom apartment in 2006," he said, now sharing a two-bedroom apartment with a friend near Beijing's downtown.Liu Qingzhu, research fellow with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, argued that housing rent has taken up too much of young people's income."Spending one-third or even a half of their income in housing rent is too much. They need money to do many other things, such as purchase decent clothes, study and for entertainment," Liu said.Also, rent is not the only thing troubling young tenants.During his four-and-a-half-year stay in Beijing, Lu has moved into new apartment five times.

PRETORIA, South Africa, Nov. 18 (Xinhua) -- Visiting Chinese Vice President Xi Jinping on Thursday called here for concerted efforts to make the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) stronger and to boost the development of the new type of China- Africa strategic partnership.Addressing a seminar marking the 10th anniversary of the establishment of FOCAC, Xi proposed to strengthen strategic planning, practical cooperation and institution building of FOCAC so as to make it a solid base for political mutual trust, a major engine driving common development and an efficient and mature platform for China-Africa cooperation.Meanwhile, more cultural and people-to-people exchanges should be conducted to make FOCAC an emotional bond to deepen China- Africa traditional friendship, said Xi.Xi stressed that China and African countries have to continue to respect, trust and support each other and treat each other as equals. The two sides should stand at a strategic high as they draw plans for the development of China-Africa relations, and should have closer dialogue and consultation within the FOCAC framework, enhance coordination and cooperation on global issues of mutual interest, strive to increase the say and representation of developing countries in the international system, and ensure better development of both China and Africa as the international configuration further evolves.Referring to China-Africa cooperation, Xi said it should be expanded to new areas and brought to higher levels. "We will enlarge the scale of China-Africa trade, and optimize the trade structure. We will cooperate with Africa in infrastructure construction and actively explore cooperation on transnational projects. We will promote export of African goods to China, facilitate investment and technology transfer to Africa, provide more job opportunities for the African people and enhance African countries' capacity in self development so as to bring more benefits to the African people. China will continue to do its best to increase assistance to Africa, optimize the structure of assistance, and focus the assistance projects on education, agriculture, health, poverty reduction and other projects concerning people's lives as well as energy conservation and environmental protection," he said.As new problems and new challenges appearing in the second decade of the 21st century, Xi said China and African countries need to properly handle them and to explore new ways and new thinking for FOCAC development in light of the new conditions and new trends in the world economy and in China-Africa relations."We should be innovative in seeking new development concept and new cooperation model of FOCAC, and give full play to the initiative and creativity of African members of FOCAC. We should strengthen cooperation with the African Union and sub-regional organizations in Africa and actively explore cooperation with other parties in the international community so as to strengthen FOCAC's synergy and influence," said Xi.He also called for expanded contacts and cooperation between the governments in such fields as education, science and technology, culture and tourism, and closer ties between political parties, localities, nongovernmental organizations, academic institutions and the news media.Launched in 2000, FOCAC is a platform for collective consultation and dialogue between China and the states in Africa.

BEIJING, Dec. 3 (Xinhua) -- China's Ministry of Commerce (MOC) Friday welcomed ruling from the World Trade Organization (WTO) that the European Union (EU) anti-dumping duties on Chinese screws and bolts were discriminatory and are in violation of global commerce rules.For a long time, the EU has been requiring Chinese exporters to prove they meet with the "single duty" requirements when they are responding to anti-dumping cases, bringing a heavy burden and unfair treatment to Chinese companies, said an official with the MOC.In particular the WTO ruled the EU's single duty requirements and practices are discriminatory and violated WTO rules.China urged the EU to respect the WTO ruling and rid itself of codes or practices that go against WTO rules and treat Chinese exporters fairly to ensure normal trade between China and the EU, the official said.At the beginning of 2009, the EU decided to impose anti-dumping duties of up to 87 percent for the next five years on fasteners imported from China.The WTO set up an expert panel on Oct. 23, 2009 after China initiated the WTO case on July 31, 2009, saying anti-dumping measures taken by the EU against the import of Chinese steel fasteners violated WTO trade rules.

JINAN, Dec. 21 (Xinhua) -- A rural endowment insurance scheme, which is being operated on trial basis in part of the country's rural area, may bring an end to the tradition of rural seniors who depend on their children for financial support.Under the insurance scheme introduced in September last year, farmers across the country, who aged 60 years or older, each can receive a pension of 55 yuan (8.3 U.S. dollars) paid by the government per month."I never dreamed I would receive a pension like urban residents do," said Liu Fengyan from Nanlin Village, Pingyi County, in east China's Shandong Province."My wife and I receive 110 yuan in total each month and that is enough to subsidize our daily expenses," Liu told reporters.Liu, together with hundreds of thousands of other elderly rural Chinese across China, is one of the first to benefit from the insurance scheme.The Chinese government has vowed to expand the scheme 10 percent per year and cover the whole country by the year 2020.Those under the age of 60 will have to pay 100 to 800 yuan per year into a fund so they can draw the pension once they hit 60 years of age."Farmers are enthusiastic about the program, and nearly 90 percent of farmers in the pilot areas in Shandong have joined the scheme," said Liu Qianjin, deputy director of the Rural Social Insurance Department of the Shandong Provincial Human Resources and Social Security Bureau.Previous pension programs that were not widely accepted because their funding came from the farmers themselves. The new pension is different - it is government funded.The value of the pension differs across China, depending on the financial status of the relevant local government."My husband's mother can get 260 yuan pension each month. She was never covered by social insurance before," said Wang Huailan, 58, from Nancai Village, Shunyi District, Beijing.Wang herself is able to receive 347 yuan per month from the urban-rural residents' pension insurance program.In China's most impoverished province, Guizhou, 27 counties, or 30 percent of all counties, are covered by the pension scheme which benefits more than 1.91 million low-income farmers.By the end of 2010, the rural pension scheme will reach 23 percent of all Chinese counties, Minister of Human Resources and Social Security Yin Weimin said in a recent statement.China's elderly population is growing quickly, posing a new challenge for the government.The number of elderly people aged 60 years or over in China in 2009 grew by 7.25 million to more than 167 million, a report by the Office of the China National Committee on Ageing said.China has a population of 1.3 billion, with 56 percent of its citizens living in rural areas not covered by social security programs.The rural pension scheme -- endorsed by the State Council, China's cabinet -- will ensure the basic living standards of elderly Chinese in rural areas and help narrow the standard-of-living gap between urban and rural areas.Although it is a small sum of money, it is the start of a new era in China, Premier Wen Jiabao said in an interview with Xinhua at the end of 2009.
