Source: San Antonio Express-NewsSept.迷你倉 07--News of British Airways' commitment to Austin seemed to drop out of the blue last week.The airline announced Tuesday that it'll offer nonstop service between Austin-Bergstrom International Airport and London's Heathrow Airport beginning in March.OK.South By Southwest is amazing. Where else can you find Jack White performing an acoustic set on the street? But ...And I guess Europeans love Formula One racing in a way most Americans could never understand, and Austin does have the Circuit of the Americas race. But ...The case for Austin's first direct international flight, apart from destinations in Mexico, isn't easily discernible to the naked eye.Airport spokesman Jim Halbrook said more than 90 passengers travel between Austin and London each way per day. However, a consultant's survey for the city of San Antonio's Aviation Department put the number at 59, making Austin the 25th-biggest U.S. market for travel to and from London. (San Antonio ranks 38th, with a scant 31 passengers going each way every day.)Sure, the fuel-efficient Boeing 787 Dreamliner made the route more feasible for British Airways.But the real reason the airline is starting the service is that Austin's business leaders wanted it to happen and more than likely made it worth British Airways' while.It certainly wasn't taxpayer-subsidized giveaways. Austin officials swore to the Austin American-Statesman that there weren't any, at least not beyond the standard waiver of landing and facility fees for new routes.A British Airways vice president told the newspaper that the company recognized "the growing importance of Austin, internationally and globally, as not just a leisure destination but also as a hub for business within North America."The speculation in San Antonio is that business executives, herded by the Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce, either ponied up money to help the airline establish itself in the Capital City or pledged to take up enough seats to London to make the investment work for British Airways. Or maybe they did both. (My call to Austin's chamber went unanswered.)That had to be galling to airport officials here.For the first time, they're asking major employers -- through chambers of commerce -- to financially contribute to the effort to snag a new direct route at San Antonio International Airport. The aim is to convince New York-based JetBlue Airways to launch nonstop S.A.-to-Boston service.But as of Thursday, they appeared to be coming up short.In a brief white paper I obtained, officials said Boston is the top destination for San Antonio business travelers that isn't served by a direct flight. Locally based bi自存倉medical companies -- a number of them eager to tap into the Boston area's health care expertise and venture capital -- are the most obvious potential beneficiaries of nonstop service.Apart from corporate letters of encouragement and "marketing and/or advertising support" for JetBlue, the paper makes a pitch for commitments "of a percentage of the company's annual corporate travel to JetBlue" and "of financial support toward matching the $400,000 contribution of the San Antonio International Airport."Barbara Prossen, the airport's director of marketing and community relations, acknowledged the recruitment effort in an interview. She noted the fierce competition for direct flights -- a must-have for sizable companies -- and said: "We're just copying what other communities are doing."When the private sector puts money on the table, Prossen said, that's "a demonstration that the community supports this airline."Airport officials had set Friday as the deadline for commitments of support. The day before, I called Richard Perez, president of the Greater San Antonio Chamber of Commerce, one of the chambers asked to solicit its members, to find out how the fundraising was going.Not good.By that point, Perez said, none of the chamber's member companies had promised to write a check."We're working it really hard," he said. "We're hoping we can supplement what's on the table from the airport and other sources." Explaining the poor showing so far, he said businesses here just aren't accustomed to that kind of ask. "It's all new -- I don't know that we've had the private sector asked to contribute before."The city, on the other hand, has pitched in plenty, though with less than stellar results. We reported in June that 14 airlines had received $3.14 million in grants to market 30 new direct flights since 2005. Thanks largely to the Great Recession and its drag on air travel, 18 of those flights went away.Still, the airport has had a lot of success winning nonstop flights to destinations in Mexico, a boost to an untold number of San Antonio firms.It remains to be seen, of course, how the airport will fare with JetBlue and service to Boston.But if it's true that prized routes rarely come without inducements -- and that the competition between cities is escalating and getting costlier -- let's hope San Antonio execs eventually decide to emulate their Austin counterparts.Greg Jefferson is business editor of the San Antonio Express-News.

G.E.M.（鄧紫棋）：又一次站在風口浪尖，迷你倉未知你內心怎樣想？ 是埋怨「群眾（ 再次） 被媒體煽動」？抑或慨嘆「我（跟王菀之一樣）討厭政治」？作為旁觀者，我的感想倒很簡單：這個年頭，這個社會愈來愈容易因為名人的一句說話而情緒激動，或驀地亢奮，或暴躁抓狂。你同意嗎？也許你說得對，這場小風波的源頭，是傳媒的推波助瀾——周中有媒體翻揭香港集思會的《90 後有話說…》文集，發現你的大名赫然在列。文中你以90 後的身分發聲自白，暢論時政。對於有人激烈反對政府，你反問「嘩！使唔使呀？」對於梁振英，你想說聲「加油」，並勸大家「不要去judge 他做得好不好」；對於政府與人民之間的關係，你認為「我不覺得一個特首、或者一個政府可以怎樣幫助市民，一個政府應該盡最大能力去提高社會的生活質素，但哪個人可以幫到你呢？就是你自己！」說實話，你的觀點，近年在茶餐廳、立法會、電視台俯拾皆是，港人從不陌生。然而，當這番言論出自你的嘴巴，素來嗜血的媒體自然打鑼打鼓，火速流傳。結果，那篇短文「成功」惹來大眾反感（戲稱「紅色娘子軍」）、網民惡搞（不停改編重作）。恁地不起眼的一段字，竟可觸發軒然大波，看似情理之外，但放諸時代框架，又是意料之中。你喜歡看電視嗎？這星期初，電視上亦有藝人因為一番話而全城矚目——剛當選港姐冠軍的陳凱琳，手握十七萬選票接受專訪，表明支持（TVB 式）普選；又期望特首做些事：「希望滿足到人們的需要」。小妮子跟你年紀相同（22 歲），立場與命運卻與你迥然不同——翌日她登上報章頭條，名嘴與師奶一同大讚她美貌與智慧並重，是歷年最美麗的港姐。藝人論政，有時招來如潮劣評，有時收穫大眾掌聲，對於這點，歐錦棠、杜汶澤、黃秋生、王菀之，以及你，都該清楚。藝人應否談論政治？曾志偉、陳志雲都有高見；而你也似有定論。周五晚上，你在facebook 表明「政治一直是我避免談論的領域」，既澄清風波，又預告自己「學精」，不欲再碰政治渾水。對此，我能夠理解，卻有點失望——沒錯就這些議題發聲，絕對有可能兩面不討好，甚或因�自己觀點的缺欠而被狠批教訓，但政治既在你我身邊（ 詳情你可以問RubberBand），你若就此抽身，自動滅聲，拒絕思考，那就是放棄你作為「眾人」的權利與義務。「藝人應否談政治」，絕對是偽命題，而「為何談」、「怎樣談」才是重點。我知道你不欲離地，亦討厭「一�都唔理性」的討論，所以以下段落，保證貼身，絕對理性。美國社會學家C. Wright Mills 曾經寫了一本名為The Sociological Imagination 的小書，他教我們，世上所有的「私人恩怨」其實都有社會背景，跟大眾議題、架構體制，息息相關。就像去年因你而起的樂壇頒獎禮風波，當時你狠批商台頒獎禮變質，講一套做一套，令（你自己的）好音樂失去被表揚的機會。作為一個「會做good quality」音樂的歌手，你當時有何感受？無助？氣憤？就算你如何調整心態，向不公平的商台說聲加油，但結果仍不會改變，這就是體制的可怕——它的不公，既可扼殺個人，又能自圓其說。當時你選擇拍片發聲，公然與商台決裂，為的是令更多人關心文件倉事，令體制得以改變，公平得以伸張。我希望你謹記，自己曾經如此對體制作出抗爭。而刻下有許多香港人，正面臨你當日的處境。不，兩者甚至不能類比——你當日失去的，是獎項和功名；而這刻港人瀕臨丟失的，卻是自由、民主，甚至生計。去年你曾發起「秘撈Tour」，步下舞台，走入民間， 當上便利店店員、化妝店sales、外籍傭工……當時有何感受？途中除了體驗生活，還有否留意到在基層生活的人們，究竟在想什麼？又有什麼煩惱？我可以告訴你，當日你見證的外傭滴汗、店員假笑，既是他們的個人煩惱，更是不公體制下的直接結果。我們可以選擇心情，但無法決定命運。我知道你會說，政府有其困難，我們每個人少說廢話，多做好事（或義工，王菀之語），不就可以解決問題麼？這幾年，許多有心人已經努力在做，例如向露宿者派飯；但早幾天，又有官員出來埋怨他們幫倒忙，令露宿者不夠淒涼，不願接受福利——拒絕看清自身漏洞，甚至諉過他人，這就是我們的政府，我們的體制。面對生活種種難關，我們或可緊守崗位，仰望expert；又或守望相助，獨自發功，但更需要的，其實是像你（曾經）一樣，站起發聲，爭取改變。對於「在商言商」的商台既應如此，面對屬於人民的政府，豈不更加合理？你是聰明的女孩子，年紀尚輕，就知道媒體是半人獸，最愛煽風和點火。但你既曉得媒體愛玩火（或被火玩），其判斷又時而片面，那就請你也不要輕易相信個別傳媒的鏡頭角度，並跟白頭翁與禿鷹一樣認定那些（即將會）激烈反對政府的人，是為反而反，蓄意搗亂。請你相信，在鏡頭以下，有更多的有心人，不像你年少卻絕望，正在鑽研體制漏洞，有節有理地為公義發聲，建立更美好的社會。他們絕不是什麼偉大的人，但大家站出來，無論是講些眾人皆知的說話（ 「特首應做��」），抑或大談理論，投入筆戰，為的絕不單純因為「唔gur」、「無benefit」，而是身為香港人，大家都覺得身邊有些核心價值，正逐漸（被）消失，今天不站出來，明天站不出來。在質問「嘩使唔使呀？」之前，我希望你考究清楚。也想講你知，流行文化與政治的關係。我喜歡流行文化，經常冒昧向世人推銷這城少數精彩文化產品（如《G.E.M. X.X.X.LIVE》），但我同時相信，流行文化之所以能get everybody moving/moved，除了因為它（像《你把我灌醉》般）有聲有色，有時更有情有義——講大眾心情、守社會公義。我不算是你的歌迷，但一直深信年僅廿二的你是個有心、有技藝的音樂人。不過，假若他日你堅持自己創作，只是想為無法面對世情的觀眾「帶來一些動力和鼓勵」，那我想告訴你，這樣的音樂，就算能夠教我快樂，把他灌醉，也不過是嗎啡。請放心，我們並非逼你（或陳凱琳）像政治明星般走上街頭，放聲抗爭；亦不要求你就此噤聲，對身邊事情不聞不問。港人只是期望你們（及其他藝人）立足群眾，細心思考——究竟令這社會充滿怨氣，讓人們屢屢因為一句話而亢奮暴烈的原因，除了「媒體煽動」、「人心苦毒」，還有什麼？大家心中的幾多爭鬥，抑鬱的幾多傷口，究竟是單純的「自尋煩惱」，還是另有原因？G.E.M.，願你盡快遠離自我中心的寂寞星球，早日睡醒，與百姓同呼同吸。阿果存倉

兩岸服務貿易協議有助兩岸經濟整合，迷你倉卻遭綠營反對，卡在立法院無法續審。在媒體催生下，馬英九、蘇貞昌答允公開辯論服貿協議。民意支持兩黨主席公開辯論，認為可以溝通說明。馬勝算較高。 兩岸服務貿易協議促使兩岸經濟整合邁進一大步，但由於馬政府事前未與相關業者做好溝通，也沒有完整配套作業，即與大陸簽署，引發黑箱作業的批評。 二個多月以來，學界與公民團體展開一連串抗議行動，基層不滿不斷蔓延，受波及業者怒氣沖天，馬政府一路挨打，束手無策，縱使買媒體大幅廣告也無濟於事，社會出現反對聲浪。 社會反對的力道成了在野黨強有力的後盾，迫使刻正在立法院審查的兩岸服貿協議動彈不得，朝野雖已取得逐條審查共識，但綠營採拖字訣，立法院召開兩次臨時會都無法審查下去。根據「立法院職權行使法」相關規定，國會最遲必須在半年內完成審查，否則一旦拖過十二月二十一日，將自動失效。此外，若採逐條、實質審查，反對黨對條文有異議，就得重啟談判。不論結果為何，皆對馬政府不利，後續的貨品貿易協議也將難以為繼。就在此際，媒體適時催生朝野領袖辯論，讓抑鬱已久的總統馬英九有機會在這場政治大戲一展「馬教授」推動服貿協議的苦心。 辯論緣起是媒體無心插柳而成的一個民意調查。根據旺旺中時民調中心的調查，百分之六十三的民眾希望兩黨主席能就服貿協議舉辦公開辯論，其中泛綠支持者與反對簽署的民眾贊成公開辯論的比例均超過七成，比泛藍民眾和贊成簽署者都來得高。媒體詢問雙方意願，馬英九第一時間表示贊成，民進黨中央則主張回歸國會實質審查，該黨主席蘇貞昌沒有必要、也不會參與，但馬上遭致蘇「怯戰」的譏評。蘇隨即改變態度，表示願意參加辯論，並反咬「只怕馬總統不敢」。 蘇貞昌願意參與辯論的動機不難理解，他的目標是選二零一六總統，但前民進黨主席蔡英文聲望比他高，也比他出鋒頭，每每在關鍵時刻發言，維持曝光率，雖然誰代表民進黨參選下屆總統尚未成定局，不過蔡明顯穩定領先，他若能與馬英九同台辯論，立刻躍居跟總統一樣的高度，在氣勢上可以比下蔡英文。 事實上，蘇貞昌雖佔據黨主席至高點，具有政策主導權，但也有一定程度包袱，並未替他加分，主要是他參選總統的意圖阻礙了風格，為爭取中間選民，他將自己重新「包裝」，從以往「衝衝衝」形象轉變為「溫良恭儉讓」，影響所及，民進黨的路線也轉趨「溫和」，他出掌黨主席後，幾乎不再發起抗爭性太強的群眾運動，講好聽是務實，其實是膽小，怕被貼標籤，因而喪失議題主導權，包括眾所矚目的反核四、反大埔拆遷，甚至洪仲丘枉死案等，民進黨一再被邊緣化，成了無足輕重的附庸角色。 媒體以「兩個太陽」形容蘇貞昌和蔡英文在民進黨的地位，前不久蔡英文拋出「雙英會」談國是會議主張，得到民意呼應，本是穩賺不賠的算計，但後來她又附和黨中央，要求先停建核四，馬英九不願接受此前提條件，雙英會因此破局。 綠營支持者反對辯論 雙英國是會議破局，服貿大辯論火速拍板，關鍵在於馬蘇各自面臨領導危機，不無藉此辯論重建領導威信。就政治得失論，蘇貞昌等於是丟了救生圈給馬英九，讓馬得以死�逃生，不少綠營支持者反對辯論，有人投書指，「笨蛋才跟他辯論」。但律師出身的蘇貞昌顯然對自己的口才很有自信，他認為，透過辯論，可以展現其敏捷思辯，讓全台觀眾看到馬英九被他「電得金細細」（台語，指修理得很慘）。 若蘇貞昌以為他辯論無敵手，可能不自存倉實際。在辯論場上，馬英九可不是軟腳蝦，他未必能討到便宜，但馬辯論身經百戰，從參選台北市長以來，跟民進黨內最會辯論的前總統陳水扁就不知交手過幾回，也跟素有「沙西米刀」封號的前閣揆謝長廷交鋒過，他們之前都把馬當軟柿子，隨便幾下就可以把馬撂倒，等到上了辯論台，才知他真是「勇腳馬」。 馬英九執政五年多以來，政績飽受質疑，唯一亮眼的就是兩岸關係，這是他的強項，要辯「兩岸經濟協議」（ECFA）後續協議之一的服貿協議，他自是夢寐以求。很多人至今仍對二零一零年他跟蔡英文就ECFA的辯論記憶猶新，當時馬英九以有利的論點技壓明顯準備不足的蔡英文，使得馬的支持率大大提升，那場辯論成為馬從原本陷入V型谷底反彈的起點。 馬英九無疑是那場辯論的贏家，一掃民調低迷的陰霾，也一吐從金融風暴、八八風災、美牛事件到內閣改組，不斷遭質疑無能的怨氣。馬英九在辯論的勝利也是ECFA的勝利，從民調結果顯示，辯後，反對和贊成ECFA的比例出現明顯消長。 身為打勝仗的執政黨主席，馬英九大大鼓舞了藍軍士氣，在那之前，國民黨軍心潰散，立委補選連吃敗仗，雖然是執政黨，但好像消失一樣，毫無作為，連居多數的國會也處處受制於在野黨，藍軍遍尋止跌良方﹐結果竟然靠一場辯論，使得馬英九聲望止跌回升。 目前兩岸服貿協議也面臨當年ECFA的困境，甚至還有過之，馬四面楚歌，跛腳效應已經顯現，光一個洪仲丘案就使他三軍統帥形象蒙塵，後續的核四案，社會反彈聲浪越來越強，馬政府幾乎無力招架，若服貿協議又在國會受制於反對黨的杯葛無法通過，幾乎就可以宣告馬未來兩年半任期不可能有任何作為，包括他亟欲推動的年金改革也將胎死腹中，但服貿協議大辯論讓他有機會再複製一場勝利。 辯論雖考驗臨場反應，但透過電視轉播，觀眾看到的是兩個不同風格的領導者，馬英九沉穩，善於引用數據；蘇貞昌犀利，辯才無礙。但馬廣受大眾喜愛的外貌則在這場公開辯論中具先天上的優勢。 總統府發言人李佳霏表示，兩岸服貿協議是人民關心的重大議題，透過辯論，讓民眾掌握更多服貿協議資訊，有助於釐清事實、充分討論及凝聚社會共識。 多數媒體對這場辯論均樂觀其成，認為可以溝通說服，有助民眾了解服貿協議的真相，打開目前僵局。馬蘇辯論原是由四報一社（《蘋果日報》、《中國時報》、《自由時報》、《聯合報》及中央社）參與主辦，但蘇貞昌方面以媒體有既定立場為由，反對由四報一社主辦，並要求不要媒體在場提問的要求，總統府方面決定勉強同意蘇貞昌的這二項要求，也就是由公視單獨主辦，並且不安排媒體在場提問。民進黨立院黨團幹事長高志鵬表示，這是依照當初雙英辯論ECFA的模式。總統府方面為避免橫生枝節並不在意，馬英九態度很清楚，就是不計代價要促成辯論，似成竹在胸。 馬蘇辯已被各方爭辯 不久前才遭馬英九點名批評渲染服貿協議害處的台灣大學經濟系主任鄭秀玲反對馬蘇辯論，這位反服貿協議的靈魂人物指出，服貿協議要在立法院實質審查，真正主角是立委，應該是由立委和受損產業進行溝通，現在卻要由執政黨主席和在野黨主席辯論，無疑是模糊焦點，馬的想法可能和以前一樣，辯論完就說利大於弊，民眾也贊成云云，「投票部隊」就投了。 馬蘇辯論結果可能流於各說各話，也很難改變民眾的反對立場，但至少樹立了民主治理的典範，朝野對任何公共政策的異見，都可以透過辯論，呈現更多面向，讓民眾有正確認知。■迷你倉新蒲崗

Source: Pittsburgh Post-GazetteSept.文件倉 07--Sorry, governor, but your Steelers game is about to be interrupted by more UPMC ads.Just as Pittsburgh's No. 1 health system unveiled two new anti-Highmark TV ads -- originally airing Thursday, and set to broadcast this weekend and during Sunday's season opener -- a task force created by Gov. Tom Corbett rapped Highmark and UPMC for a "lack of professionalism and judgment" regarding their ongoing TV and radio advertising campaigns.The dueling health titans appear to be trying to scare customers, according to a letter sent to the CEOs of both companies by two top state officials.The letter was issued (and released publicly) by state Insurance Commissioner Michael Consedine and state Secretary of Health Michael Wolf, addressed to Highmark CEO William Winkenwerder Jr. and UPMC CEO Jeffrey Romoff, as well as legal officials from Highmark and UPMC.Officials from the Insurance Department and the Health Department make up Mr. Corbett's Interagency Consumer Protection Task Force, created last month to deal with consumer confusion in the health care realm, and particularly the confusion arising from the protracted public relations battle between Pittsburgh's largest insurer and its largest hospital network."The advertisements appear to be intended to drive consumers to choose their health insurance and health provider based on fear," the letter says, urging the companies to "refocus on their primary mission to serve" their patients and subscribers.The letter, dated Thursday, also said the task force has discussed the ad campaigns with both organizations in the past two weeks, and asked Highmark and UPMC to again clarify how the two organizations will cooperate when it comes to access for Medicare and Medicare Advantage plan customers.Paul Wood, UPMC spokesman, said UPMC would reissue a joint statement or advertisement with Highmark regarding Medicare access, but that Highmark has "balked a存倉 doing so."He also said UPMC would be "more than pleased to work with the task force to determine what ads they feel might be misleading, or inaccurate, and negative."In a statement, Highmark said that "Highmark's communications in the media have been positive. They focus on the need for the parties to work together to establish a more constructive relationship and on affordable access to care."Highmark also said that "We believe that UPMC should make a firm, long-term commitment to Highmark's Medicare Advantage members by renewing its facility contracts annually through at least 2020, and assuring in-network access to their physicians during the same period."UPMC is adding two new Highmark-related ads to its growing rotation, one addressing out-of-network rates ("you'll only pay those out-of-network rates if you stick with Highmark") and another about how easy it to switch away from Highmark and into a more UPMC-friendly health insurance policy.Highmark is not planning any ads for the Steelers game, according to a spokeswoman.The ad war intensified this summer after the state Insurance Department approved Highmark's takeover of the financially ailing West Penn Allegheny Health System, which triggered the launch of Highmark's new Allegheny Health Network.In August, UPMC sued Highmark in U.S. District Court, alleging false advertising.The contract between Highmark and UPMC expires at the end of 2014, meaning if the two don't arrive at a new contract before then, many Highmark customers won't have access to UPMC doctors and hospitals.Highmark says it wants a new, long-term contract, but UPMC says it doesn't, because it won't do business with a competitor -- which Highmark is, now that it runs its own hospital network.Bill Toland: btoland@post-gazette.com or 412-263-2625.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Visit the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette at .post-gazette.com Distributed by MCT Information Services迷你倉

It is now the economic, political and cultural center of the renowned coastal city.The district government said “fortune” and “happiness” are the key words for today’s Siming.The local officials pointed out that increasing government revenues are an important indicator of public fortune and a major financial resource that the government uses to improve the local quality of life and for other social undertakings.In 2012, the district reported government revenue of 13.3 billion yuan, an increase of 20.3 percent year-on-year, signaling record growth in the past five years.In the first half of 2013, government revenue approached 9.1 billion yuan, the largest of all the cities in Fujian.The officials said the fortune comes from the city’s abundant business opportunities brought by its born geographic advantages as a close neighbor of Taiwan, as well as its preferential policy environment as a part of a city that is listed as one of the four special economic zones in China and a pilot in cross-Straits business cooperation.Tourist attractionsThe unique natural environment there also makes the district appealing to both residents and tourists.Embraced by mountains and sea, Siming district has a pleasant climate.There are several renowned tourist resorts along the 10-kilometer beaches. Fifteen of Xiamen’s top 20 resorts are located in Siming.The most attractive among all the resorts is the 1.77-square-kilometer Gulangyu Island, which is about 500 meters away from the city proper across the Lujiang River.Featuring blue sea, green trees and colonial-style houses, the serene island is also known as “the garden on the sea”.According to the district government, Siming’s tourism revenue reached 39.2 billion yuan in 2012, accounting for 70 percent of Xiamen’s total.In recent years, the government has highlighted the service industry and several emerging industries.It has a booming high-end consumer goods market, making it a trend leader in Xiamen as well as Fujian province.The Paragon Center is Fujian’s first and largest high-end shopping mall, gathering some 80 globally renowned brands, including such luxury names as Gucci, Burberry and Montblanc.Another luxury shopping mall called China City has a 200-meter-long corridor for showcasing renowned watches. Here consumers can find luxury watch brands, including Piaget, Jaeger-Le Coultre, Omega, and IWC.China City also has the first Ferrari and Maserati showrooms in Fujian province.In addition to these luxury shopping malls, high-end hospitality business is another propeller of Siming’s development.In Siming, there are 48 star-rated hotels, accounting for 61 percent of Xiamen’s total.Many hotels combine first-rate facilities with Siming’s regional characteristics.For instance, the Hotel Nikko Xiamen gives guests a sea view through French windows in the rooms.The district is also on its way toward becoming a luxury yachting hub of Xiamen, with the Shangshan International Yacht Club now under construction. Local government officials said “the club is expected to introduce a new lifestyle to local people” when becoming operational.Pivotal roleSiming district is playing a pivotal role in Xiamen’s initiative to build a cross-Straits financial hub.According to the district government, in the first half of 2013, the district’s financial and insurance enterprises generated revenue totaling more than 6.6 billion yuan, an increase of 9.3 percent year-on-year.Government officials said these companies have offered strong financial support for local growth and cross-Straits business cooperation.Another driver of growth is Siming’s advantages in terms of high-quality human resources. The district is home to seve迷你倉al renowned higher learning and research institutes, including the prestigious Xiamen University.The district government has also implemented a talent plan, with a 100-million-yuan fund to support talent development.The district also regularly hosts academic activities, inviting famous experts and scholars to give lectures to local researchers and students.Amid rapid economic and social transformation, the local government wants to make sure that all the residents, especially those lower-income families, can enjoy a better life.One of the efforts is the “warm-heart supermarket”, an invention by the district in May 2004. In these supermarkets, donated goods are displayed on shelves and needy people can choose what they want for free.The goal of the supermarket is to let people get help while keeping their dignity, government officials said.So far, 1,200 families have received continuous help from the service.Now the “warm-heart” initiative has evolved into a public welfare brand, including 11 supermarkets, 26 online schools, six classrooms, 12 canteens and 40 community funds under the same name.Investment projectsThe Siming district is bringing a number of investment projects to the 17th China International Fair for Investment and Trade, which opens today in Xiamen, to seek potential partners from China and abroad.The following are the major projects:Developments relating to the cross-Straits financial hub． Haixi Jingu Plaza: an office building complex with total floor space of 400,000 square meters.． Kaiyuan Industrial Park: a development with total floor space of 1.53 million square meters.． Tefang International Center: a commercial and cultural facility with 387,000 square meters of floor space.． Xiamen Financial Center: a 49-story, 212-square-meter building.． Zhonghang Zijin Plaza: a five-star hotel and other commercial facilities.Guanyinshan area． Guanyinshan Plaza: a hotel and an office building and other facilities.Sports and culture． People’s Stadium: a sports center combining cultural and commercial facilities.． Longshan Creativity Park: the largest creativity park in Fujian.． Xiamen Industrial Design Center: a facility combining design, R&D, technology transfer, information consultation and other functions.． Straits Fashion & Art Center: a facility for fashion design and performance.． Siming Architecture Design and R&D Center: office building for architecture design and research firms.． Hongwen Fashion Industry Park: a facility combining fashion design, exhibition and experience.High-tech development． Siming Photo-Electronic Building: an R&D service center for photo-electronic enterprises in the Xiamen Science Park.． Xiamen University Science Park: the only university science park in Fujian.． Cross-Straits e-commerce park: office buildings for e-commerce businesses.highlightUnique HistorySiming, which means “missing the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644)”, was given its name by renowned general Zheng Chenggong.After the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) force defeated the Ming in the north, Zheng still led an army in Fujian province to defend the struggling Ming.He named the place where his army was stationed as the Siming prefecture in 1650.Zheng led a navy force from Xiamen to Taiwan to fight against the Dutch invaders in 1661. After several decisive victories, the Dutch were forced to leave Taiwan, and the island became Zheng’s last stronghold against the Qing, which had already seized most of the Chinese mainland.Zheng was a diehard loyalist to the Ming Dynasty, which made it impossible for him to return to the mainland. Unable to return to his homeland because of the continued strife, he died in 1662 in Taiwan.In the early years of the Republic of China period (1912-1949), Siming county was established with an area covering today’s Xiamen city and Kinmen county of Taiwan.In 1950, the Siming district was founded at the central part of Xiamen.A huge Zheng Chenggong statue has been erected on the Gulangyu Island to commemorate this national hero.自存倉

董倩：　　晚上好，這裡是《新聞1+1》。剛才您在屏幕上看到的那位老人叫萬愛花，今年84歲，前天她去世，在13年前的時候我在山西的羊泉村採訪過這位老人，當時給我印象很深的是，她說了這樣的一句話，她說“我一定要活著，要等到日本給我賠禮道歉的那一天。”但是，她沒能跑得贏時間，她沒有等到這一天，前天她去世了。今天我們就一起來瞭解這位叫做萬愛花的老人。　　解說：　　這位在生命的最後二十幾年裡一直大聲疾呼的老人，最終還是沒能實現宿怨，兩天前她離開了人世，兩天後老人的遺體將在她早年生活過的羊泉村下葬，為她料理後世的是萬愛花老人在年輕時收養的養女李拉弟，除此之外一些民間組織和媒體也表示將前往拜祭。在84歲年的人生中萬愛花老人經歷過極大的屈辱，但她選擇了勇敢面對。70年前山西羊泉村遭到侵華日軍的掃蕩，年僅14歲的萬愛花被日軍抓走，遭到殘忍的性暴力侵害，長期的身心折磨讓萬愛花喪失了生育能力，一生飽受各種後遺症之苦。　　萬愛花：　　我原來一米65高，我現在變成這個樣子了，脖子是按摩了50年才能伸出來，從前就是這樣。　　解說：　　1992年聯合國人權委員會在日本東京首次舉行慰安婦國際聽證會，萬愛花打破半個世紀的沉默脫衣指正，以親身經歷控訴50年前侵華日軍對自己慘無人道的蹂躪和摧殘。在數十萬被日軍蹂躪的中國婦女中，萬愛花是站出來控訴侵華日軍罪行的第一人。　　萬愛花：　　告他的滔天大罪，來了中國犯下的滔天大罪，問他要事實。　　解說：　　此後的二十幾年間萬愛花八次赴日本，三次訴訟三次敗訴，但是卻從沒放棄過。　　萬愛花：　　我再跟他們上國際法庭，他們日本打不贏，我腦子里就裝著打不贏就來國際法庭吧，和他總得說個長短，日本人在日本的地方，他不能給你打贏官司，要求他跟中國人賠情道歉，低頭認罪接受錯誤。　　解說：　　去年四月萬愛花老人經醫生確定為腦癱半身不遂，來到山西太原住院，兩個月後因負債累累無力繼續支付醫療費用的萬愛花老人不顧醫生勸阻堅持出院回家，而老人的養女則不得已向社會求助。　　萬愛花養女 李拉弟：　　我沒有工作，我媽是低保，每月300塊錢，現在借錢也借不出來了，但是現在沒有錢了，就出了院了，沒有辦法。　　解說：　　此後經過救助萬愛花老人才重新回到醫院，醫生曾經下過兩次病危通知書，但萬愛花老人都奇跡般的醒了過來，躺在病床上的她說，“日本人不道歉，我不能死，只想聽到日本政府一句道歉”是萬愛花生前經常提到的願望。她也曾多次表示如果我死了，我女兒要接下去，一定要逃回公道，要回尊嚴。”　　主持人：　　13年前在羊泉村我採訪過這位老人，當時我還非常年輕，閱事很淺，但是即便如此在採訪中我還能夠深深的感受到這位老人，她生活在一種痛苦和屈辱中，始終不能擺脫。所以當今天聽到了她去世這個消息的時候，一方面在難過，但是另外一方面我覺得她終於解脫了，雖然她用的是這樣的一種最無奈的方式。在84歲這個年齡老人離去，實際上她作為女人的一生從14歲這一年她被日本人掠走，強暴開始就已經結束了，剛才在短片中大家已經看到，當時她一米六五的個頭，那麼經過半年的摧殘變成了一米四幾，而且落下了終身的很多很多的殘疾，我們不妨看一下，她這些年來都經歷了什麼。在那之後1948年萬愛花19歲，那件事情給她的打擊實在是太大了，從此之後她就流落他鄉，隱姓埋名。在將近半個世紀之後的1992年誰都沒有想到，當時64歲的萬愛花到日本東京參加了一個慰安婦的國際聽證會開始控訴日軍的暴行，揭開了自己的傷疤。在1998年的時候她69歲，她和其他的一些受害人到東京地方法院正式提出訴訟，狀告日本政府。2005年她敗訴，2012年的時候她已經83歲，被確診為腦梗塞半身不遂，在很多年前在採訪中我還記得，我問她你受這麼大的罪，你活下去的力量是什麼。她說我就是想等到日本政府給我賠禮道歉，到今天我想她可能這麼多年的堅持，她最大的意義就是在於她是歷史的當事人，她是歷史的證人，她可以為歷史作證。萬愛花經過的是非常悲慘的記憶，她一生也並不順利，也比較坎坷，但是她的所作所為她的一生的堅持卻讓人肅然起敬，那我們不妨更多瞭解一下這位老人。　　解說：　　歷史一定會記住這個瞬間，1992年12月64歲的萬愛花老人打破半個世紀的沉默，在日本東京舉行的首次慰安婦國際聽證會上以親身經歷控訴50年前侵華日軍對自己慘無人道的蹂躪和摧殘。　　記者：　　能在這麼大年紀的時候，張嘴把自己年輕的時候受的那些難說出來容易嗎？　　萬愛花：　　容易也得說，不容易也得說。　　記者：　　為什麼就願意張口了呢？　　萬愛花：　　張口了日本鬼子才能知道，他才能接受他的滔天罪惡。　　解說：　　2000年底女性國際戰犯法庭在日本東京即將開庭審理，出發之前她在接受記者採訪時，表現出了極大的信心。　　記者：　　大娘一共去了幾次日本？　　萬愛花：　　我去了五次了，這遍信心特別高，為什麼特別高，支持的朋友們也挺多，各個國家的受害者，不管他是哪裡去的代表，他們都是因為這日本鬼子去的，都是問這些鬼子，討公道、討真理去的。到那個會場都一樣，都是討公道的人，都是支持我萬愛花的人。　　解說：　　得到各國受害者的共同支持，讓萬愛花老人在第五次赴日時流露出了爽朗的笑聲，並揮舉雙手向親友們告別。這是記者整理萬愛花老人生前素材時唯一見到過的笑容。　　2000年12月8日，女性國際戰犯法庭在日本東京正式開庭審理。　　律師：　　在我詢問之前，我想請問萬女士，您能保證您今天在法庭上的陳述都是真實的嗎？　　萬愛花：　　我良心作證。　　律師：　　請您說一下，在你14歲的時候，是否被日本軍人抓去做性奴隸？　　萬愛花：　　是，我向法官申請我的冤，我先被抓到窯洞里，就是那種窯洞是裡外間，外面有多少人我不知道，裡面進來五六個人。　　律師：　　那麼每次你被關押期間，每天都發生被日本兵強暴的事情嗎？　　萬愛花：　　每天有，每天有。　　解說：　　說到悲憤處萬愛花老人因過於激動忽然昏厥過去，從日本回國後，她始終臥病在床，日本沒有賠償謝罪的現實，使老人滿腔悲憤，鬱結在心，上個世紀沒有討回的公道使得她要把官司打到這個世紀。　　萬愛花：　　恨不過他(日本)咽不了這口氣，除非我死了，要不我非把中國這個真理拿回來不行。　　記者：　　從1992年開始已經用了將近十年的時間，您一切的精力都放在這個上面了？　　萬愛花：　　對，吃不好，睡不好，就是一直琢磨這些事。　　主持人：　　我們在看這樣的幾張歷史的照片，他們曾經記錄過萬愛花迷你倉一些瞬間，這幾張照片是陸續從1992年開始，這位老人和其他的一些戰爭的受害者，參與在日本大阪、東京的控訴，還有聽證會的一些情況，剛才在短片中我們也認識了一位叫做康健的律師，康健律師在這些年十幾年的過程中，一直為萬愛花這樣的慰安婦在進行訴訟，做著相關的工作，接下來我們就連線她，康健律師您好，這些年了，很久以前我們曾經交流過，那麼在幫助像萬愛花老人的這些人裡面，都是由什麼樣的人組成的，您給我們介紹一下。　　北京市方元律師事務所 律師 康健：　　是這樣，在幫扶萬愛花女士包括她在內的還有其他受害者訴訟的，主要是由在日本組成的幾個律師團，除了這些律師團之外還有一些日本國民組成的支援團體叫支援會，他們在日本幫助推動訴訟。　　主持人：　　像您這樣的律師，來自中國的律師在幫助萬愛花老人的過程中，所占的比例並不是很多，那麼相對於日本幫助他們的人來說這是為什麼？　　康健：　　因為是要在日本的法院提起訴訟的話，所以主要是日本律師要出庭的，中國的律師是作為輔佐人士協助，所以我們中國的律師並不是很多，但是萬愛花老人這個訴訟案件我沒有直接參加，我參加的是其他三批的受害者的訴訟的活動。　　主持人：　　您再多給我們介紹一下，可能很多中國人看來因為萬愛花老人控訴的就是日本的暴行，為什麼有一些日本人會加入到幫助她們的隊伍當中來，他們主要是一些什麼樣的人？　　康健：　　這些事情我也是在最初合作的時候，跟日本律師合作我也向他們直率詢問，他們為什麼這麼做，他們很坦率跟我們講，就是說因為他們在知信了這些日軍當年在中國所犯下的暴行之後，他們深深感到如果嚴重侵害人權問題不解決的話，日本國民和日本國是不會得到，包括中國在內的亞洲多國人的原諒和信任的，所以他們為了日本國的名譽他們來做這件事情。　　主持人：　　謝謝，康健律師，稍候我們會有更多的問題給您。今天我們看到的是萬愛花老人的一些情況，其實像有這樣的一種不堪非常痛苦，但是非常獨特這樣的遭遇的一個特殊的人群裡面，像萬愛花老人，已經去世了，有的人還在她們的餘生繼續堅持著，我們來瞭解一下。　　解說：　　2011年5月，一本名叫《炮樓里的女人》的書歷經30多年的抒寫終於出版發行，翻開這本書的目錄，都是由一個個名字而構成的，而每個名字的背後都是被日軍在山西強徵為慰安婦的屈辱。這本中國首部慰安婦口述歷史的作者叫張雙兵，在30多年前他只是山西羊泉村小學的一名教師，但是在和當地這些曾經受到日軍欺凌的老人接觸後，他決定為她們做點事情。　　張雙兵：　　這些老太太很可憐，她們的生活，她們的生存，她們就因為日本鬼子侵犯了她們的身體，把她們的身體都搞垮了，一直到後來她們的名譽上，受到很大的損傷，然後在她們的生活上，也有了很大的損傷，所以她們正個一生都付出了很大的代價。　　解說：　　近來30年來張雙兵先後走訪了120多位受害人300位慰安婦問題相關聯繫人，並于1992年帶領她們中的一些人向日本政府提交了來自中國大陸的第一封控訴書。之後由陸續帶著包括萬愛花在內的多名老人前往日本作證。　　記者：　　跟她們接觸中，她們跟您說最多的話是什麼？　　山西慰安婦民間調查者 張雙兵：　　她們說最多的話就是問她們打官司(的事)，問她們的官司會不會贏，日本政府會不會接受她們的條件，是不是可以給她們賠償，賠禮道歉。　　記者：　　您怎麼回答她們的？　　張雙兵：　　我呀，一開始要差向她們承諾，這是一件很快的事情，可以說幾年之內就可以完成，因為這是歷史的事實，想不到我這個想法是幼稚的，等老人們死的差不多了，我都沒有給她們完成這個遺願，所以心裡很慚愧。　　解說：　　如今萬愛花老人走後在張雙兵幫助下，曾經對日本進行過控訴的老人就只剩下三位。　　張雙兵：　　日本政府(的官司)已經不能再打了，已經敗訴了，還是想通過外交渠道，和政治渠道來解決這些問題，盡可能地去做吧。　　記者：　　剩下的老人現在歲數最小的是多大了？　　張雙兵：　　最小的86歲。　　解說：　　隨著一位位歷史見證者的離去，張雙兵也不再年輕，今年已經年過花甲的他雖然表示仍然會盡一切努力為這些老人們去鬥爭，但是他更希望的是能有後來者可以接過他的事業，即使最後老人們都走了，但她們受到的傷害需要一個道歉，這段屈辱的歷史需要永遠銘記。　　主持人：　　從1995年以來一共是前後4批在戰爭中中國女性受害者提出了向日本政府的訴訟，但是我們可以看到，駁回上訴已結，駁回上訴已結，已結，已結，全部都是這樣的結果，提出訴訟的原告，中國的慰安婦，劉面換、周喜香等等，大概陸續已經在24歲老人中9位已經陸續離開人世了，接下來我們怎麼面對這樣的一種情形，我們繼續連線康健律師，康健律師我們剛才看到了，結局往往都是已結，已結意味著什麼？　　康健：　　已結就是說在法院的訴訟已經終結了，從我們這個專業角度來說，但是我們這個鬥爭的話並沒有因為在法院的訴訟終結我們而停止，實際上我們伴隨著法院的訴訟感到，訴訟只是個個案，我們認為有必要要廣泛調查，我們中華全國律師協會也組織了律師，來進行調查，調查日軍當年在中國設立慰安所，以及對抓中國的婦女進行持續侵害的罪行。　　主持人：　　康健律師有這樣的問題，因為當時《中日聯合聲明》裡面也提到，我們中國放棄對日方的戰爭賠償的索要，這樣的一種歷史背景對於這些老人，再繼續打這種官司會起到什麼作用和影響？　　康健：　　日本政府在2002年或者2003年之後陸續開始拋出這個論調，中國人的請求權放棄了，但是我們認為，從法律角度來說，他們這個說法是站不住腳的，但是日本最高法院最後在2007年4月27日，接受了日本政府的這種抗辯理由，認為中國人在《中日聯合聲明》中第五條約定中，已經放棄了索賠的請求權，但是這種解釋是站不住腳的，因為它是用《舊金山合約》的框架來解釋《中日聯合聲明》的，可是中國政府是沒有加入《舊金山合約》的。　　主持人：　　康健律師您看，像萬愛花這樣的人她的最大的希望，就是能夠等到日本政府對她說賠禮道歉的這一天，但是她沒等到，現在在世的這些老人您認為有可能等到嗎？　　康健：　　這個很難說，因為日本主流社會我認為對那段歷史認識是非常成問題的，所以這種能不能真誠向受害者道歉確實是一個很難預測的。　　主持人：　　好的，非常感謝康健律師。今天我們看到萬愛花老人已經去世，其實還有很多像她這樣年齡的老者由於高齡也會陸續辭世，我們能夠為她們做些什麼，一方面讓她們盡力保持體面的生活，另外一方面我想最重要的應該去搶救歷史，不讓我們的歷史被別人任意篡改。　　好，這就是今天的節目，感謝您的收看，再見。　　字幕提示：　　1937年盧溝橋事變，萬愛花8歲。　　1943年日軍掃蕩羊泉村，萬愛花14歲。　　萬愛花：　　那是歷史，忘不了，死了也忘不了。　　字幕提示：　　1945年日本投降，萬愛花16歲。　　1948年流落他鄉隱姓埋名
