BRUSSELS, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) --- The European Commission on Friday gave the green light to Microsoft's acquisition of voice and video communication provider Skype, thus removing the last hurdle in the process.According to a statement released by the Commission, "the deal would not significantly impede effective competition in the European Economic Area (The EU plus Iceland, Lichtenstein and Norway) or any substantial part of it."The Commission explained that it found that in the area of consumer communications, the parties' activities overlap in video communications, where Microsoft is active through its Windows Live Messenger.However, the Commission considered that there were no competition concerns in this growing market where numerous other players, including Google, were present.Skype was bought by eBay in 2005 at the price of 4.1 billion U.S. dollars, and sold out at 2.75 billion U.S. dollars in 2009. Microsoft declared to take over Skype at a cost of 8.5 billion dollars on May 10, 2011.

FUZHOU, Nov. 6 (Xinhua) -- China is considering to set up a special fund to finance arts creation and cultural performances in the latest move to buoy the development of the country's "soft power," a cultural official said Sunday.The fund, which is likely to be set up in 2012, will pool an initial capital of 200 million yuan (31.54 million U.S. dollars) from the government and private investors to support various forms of arts ranging from opera, philharmonic, ballet, to Chinese folk opera, said Tao Cheng, vice head of the arts department under the Ministry of Culture.Tao told Xinhua on the sidelines of an opera festival held in eastern city of Fuzhou that the fund will gradually expand to 800 million yuan in size over the years. He said the ministry has drawn up the draft and it will be deliberated and finalized.China's top leadership has recently attached greater importance to improving the country's cultural soft power after decades of economic growth. In the sixth plenary session of the 17th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China last month, the nation's decision-makers focused on cultural issues. It was the first time in 15 years that the plenary sessions have put the spotlight on culture.The Ministry of Finance had said it would increase fiscal expenditure on museums, cinemas, music companies, publishing houses and other cultural institutions, and ensure that public spending on the sector grows faster than fiscal income growth. Support policies will be targeted, with a focus on improving the cultural institutions' market competitiveness, it said.

BEIJING, Jan. 15 (Xinhua) -- The winning of Ma Ying-jeou and Kuomintang (KMT) in Saturday's elections may open new chances for the peaceful development of cross-Strait relations.The results of the elections have indicated that the peaceful development of the cross-Strait relations is a correct path and has been widely recognized by the Taiwan people.Any persons and any political parties of Taiwan should follow this trend, so that they could earn recognition and support.Moreover, the victory of Ma and the KMT may represent a new opportunity for the development of the cross-Strait relations.With joint efforts of the two sides to fortify and enhance the existing mutual trust, there will be a even brighter prospect and further progresses in the cross-Strait talks, exchanges and cooperation.However, the two sides should be wary that the situation in the island is still complicated and the "Taiwan independence" stance will continue to haunt the cross-Strait relations development.There are still some long-term disputes and divergences existing between the two sides that await resolving.This year's elections were carried out under a background in which the cross-Strait relations have been significantly improved. The positive effects of the peaceful development of the cross-Strait relations have fully emerged.Over the past four years, the two sides of the Taiwan Strait have established a political mutual trust based on opposition to the "Taiwan independence" stance and adherence to the "1992 Consensus."The two sides resumed regular talks between the mainland's Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits (ARATS) and the Taiwan-based Straits Exchange Foundation (SEF) in 2008.The opening of "three direct links" of cross-Strait mail, trade, air and shipping services, has also pushed forward the cross-Strait economic cooperation into a brand-new stage.These achievements have brought about real benefits to the people on both sides of the Strait, especially the people in Taiwan.The cross-Strait economic cooperation has also helped the island's economy to buoy up from blows of the global financial crisis.The peaceful development of the cross-Strait ties have won a widespread support among the Taiwan people and it is also appreciated by the international community.During the election campaigns, whether to stick to the 1992 Consensus became a major field of cross fires among candidates. Ma had stood out and gained positive momentum with his cross-Strait policies.Numbers of Taiwanese notables, business tycoons as well as the small and medium-sized enterprise owners and the grassroots people have also expressed their stance for the "1992 Consensus" and their aspiration for further peaceful development of the cross-Strait ties.Under the public's pressure, the Democratic Progressive Party and its candidate Tsai Ing-wen have to lower their voices for "Taiwan independence."But their denial of the "1992 Consensus" and the stance of "one country on each side" could not abate the people's doubts and worries and finally led to their failure in the elections.Judged from the election, peaceful development of cross-Strait relations have developed from a concept to reality, benefitting people from different backgrounds and recognized by the public.
