Heavy rain, widely forecast, bypassed Beijing on Wednesday but battered the neighboring city. By ZHENG XIN and TAN ZONGYANG The death toll from the storm that lashed the capital on Saturday climbed to 77, as more bodies were retrieved, the Beijing municipal government said on Th ursday night. Eleven of the bodies have yet to be identifi ed. Of the 66 identifi ed victims, fi ve perished in the line of duty, according to the Information Office of the municipal gov- ernment. Of the remaining 61 civil- ian victims, 36 men and 25 women, 46 drowned and fi ve died from electric shock. Col- lapsed buildings claimed three lives, two people were struck by fl ood debris and two died from trauma-induced shock. Falling objects killed two people and one person was hit by lightning. The massive debris flow made search operations more diffi cult, and this caused a delay in the government releasing fi gures, said Pan Anjun, deputy head of the municipal flood control and drought relief headquarters. Identification procedures had to be carried out thoroughly, he said. Th e government will contin- ue search eff orts but there are no further reports of missing people, the information offi ce said. Th e heaviest rain in more than six decades battered the capital on Saturday, with the average precipitation reaching 170 mm while a town, in the suburban district of Fangshan, saw 460 mm.

Th e survey, conducted by Chi- na Youth Daily, shows that 82.3 percent of the 10,180 respondents think that disparities in fund- ing exist between primary and middle schools. According to the survey, 62.9 percent of the respondents think that the government gives more money to well-known schools, and 62.3 percent suggest that the gov- ernment should off er more sup- port to poor-performing schools. Sun Junyang, associate professor with Beijing Normal University, said the policy of developing key schools has led poor-performing schools to do even worse. Sun suggested that the govern- ment should allocate funds evenly and ensure relatively balanced teacher resources. Illegal land seizures increase Th e amount of property in ille- gal land seizures has risen every month since January, and about 30 percent of such seizures were uncovered in June, the Ministry of Land and Resources said on Wednesday. Illegal use of agricultural land, usually under the guise of constructing agricultural facili- ties, has been on the rise, said Yue Xiaowu, an offi cial with the ministry. However, the country reported a year-on-year drop of 1.7 percent in cases of illegal land seizures in the fi rst half of the year, he said. Th e ministry uncovered 15,000 cases of illegal land use involving 10,000 hectares of land in the fi rst six months, down 35.3 percent year-on-year. Authorities recovered 445 hectares of land and collected 650 million yuan ($103 million) in fi nes. A total of 313 people were punished for their involvement in the cases, he said. Longer sentences in CCTV blaze Th ree men already serving prison terms for using inferior and combustible material to build the new headquarters of China Central Television had their sen- tences extended aft er a retrial on Wednesday. Tang Zhuchuang, vice- president of a Guangdong-based construction materials company, project manager Gu Xianshu, and quality controller Li Shuzhi each had three to four more years added to their respective sen- tences, according to Beijing No 2 Intermediate People’s Court. In an earlier trial, they were sentenced to two and a half to four and a half years. Th e three men were charged with using fl ammable insula- tion on the outer walls of the new CCTV headquarters tower, which was damaged in a 2009 fi re. Th e blaze killed one person and injured eight others. Th e court said the three men were responsible for 160 million yuan ($25 million) of losses. Capital city details govt expenses Th e Beijing municipal govern- ment spent 864 million yuan ($135.3 million) last year on cars and their maintenance, overseas trips and banquets, a fi nance offi - cial said on Th ursday. It is the second time local gov- ernments, including Beijing, were asked to release such information since 2010. Th e Beijing govern- ment spent 266 million yuan less on the three items than in 2010. Yang Xiaochao, director of the Beijing fi nance bureau, told local lawmakers at an ongoing session of Beijing People’s Congress that 611 million yuan was spent on buying and maintaining cars. Th e capital spent 317 million yuan less than in 2010 on buying new cars, the only item on the budget that has been reduced. Yang said 12.99 billion yuan was spent on government opera- tions. It was the fi rst time such information has been released. GUIZHOU Five trapped in coal mine Five miners were trapped in a coal mine when the mine’s tunnel collapsed on Th ursday aft ernoon in Southwest China’s Guizhou province, local authorities said.

GUANGXI Typhoon leads to evacuations Typhoon Vicente has aff ected 168,000 people in the Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, including 9,900 who were forced to evacuate, local authorities said on Wednesday. Vicente, this year’s eighth typhoon, made landfall near Taishan in Guangdong province on early Tuesday, bringing gales and rainstorms to Guangdong and Guangxi. Between Tuesday night and Wednesday aft ernoon, precipita- tion exceeded 200 mm in several cities in Guangxi, while winds of more than 70 km per hour were recorded in the cities of Nan- ning, Yulin, Wuzhou and Beihai, according to the region’s meteoro- logical center. Th e storm has toppled more than 1,200 farmhouses and dam- aged 8,490 hectares of crops. Direct economic losses totaled 46.6 million yuan ($7.3 million), the region’s civil aff airs depart- ment said. GANSU Landslide creates fl ood threat A rain-triggered landslide in Northwest China’s Gansu prov- ince on Wednesday has cut off a pivotal highway and formed a barrier lake that threatens to burst and fl ood a neighboring county, local authorities said on Th ursday. More than 50,000 cubic meters of rock and dirt fell down the side of a mountain in Jingning county on Wednesday morning, disrupting traffi c on the No 304 provincial highway and forming a barrier lake in the Hulu River, the county publicity department said in a statement. Ten people were forced to evacuate from the aff ected area, but no casualties were reported, it said. Workers were still cleaning the debris from No 304 provincial highway on Th ursday. Meanwhile, the barrier lake remains a threat to thousands downstream of the lake in Qin’an county. Th e provincial government has sent a team of geologists and water conservancy specialists to the site on Th ursday. TIBET Recovered works of art on display An exhibition featuring returned Tibetan Buddhism art works from overseas opened on Wednesday in Lhasa, capital of the Tibet autonomous region. Th e exhibition displays 101 art works including 39 golden and bronze Buddha statues, 39 musical instruments used in the Buddhist mass, and 23 thangka, a form of Tibetan silk painting that dates back to the Tibetan Tubo Kingdom more than 1,000 years ago, said Yeshe Puencog, curator of the exhibition. “Th e items on display have much religious and artistic value, and they indicate the close ties between Tibet and the central government,” he said. Th e exhibits have been bought back mainly from UK, US and Indian collectors, he said. A huge number of cultural relics were taken overseas in the late 19th century and early 20th century aft er Western powers invaded Tibet. Th e exhibition is scheduled to last for two months in Lhasa and will then be taken to other Chi- nese cities. Monks get help with vegetables Th e government is helping monks at a Tibetan monastery perched on a rough slope of the Himalaya Mountains to grow vegetables in a new greenhouse, local offi cials said on Th ursday. Rongpo Monastery sits on the north slope of Qomolangma, also known as Mount Everest in the West. Th e region’s adverse weath- er — long, freezing winters of gales and blizzards — combined with its remoteness have made vegetables hard to come by. Th e greenhouse is part of a government campaign to greatly improve the living conditions in monasteries in the Tibet autono- mous region this year. A canteen, a communal bathroom and a proper garbage dump will also be built. Each monastery will have a hygiene specialist as well, the offi cials added. HEILONGJIANG Russian suspect extradited Police in Northeast China’s Heilongjiang province have extradited a suspect to Russia at the request of Russian authori- ties. Th e extradition took place at China’s Heihe Port a week ago between police and judicial offi cials from Heilongjiang and Russia’s Amur region, said a statement issued on Th ursday by the Heilongjiang Provincial Pub- lic Security Department. Th e Russian suspect, Mger Grigoryan, had fl ed to Harbin, the provincial capital, aft er he allegedly defrauded two Rus- sian companies of more than 5.7 million roubles ($175,000) and 130,000 kg of rice in November 2004. Chinese police detained the suspect in 2010 at the request of Russian authorities, the statement said. ZHEJIANG System problem blamed for smoke An airplane that was forced to land minutes aft er taking off from a Hangzhou airport suff ered a malfunction in its air-circulation system, China Southern Airlines said on Th ursday.

Charges fi led in death of Briton Neil Heywood By XINHUA and CHINA DAILY Bogu Kailai and Zhang Xiaojun were recently charged with intentional homicide by the Hefei People’s Procurator- ate in East China’s Anhui prov- ince, Xinhua News Agency reported on Th ursday. The city prosecutors filed the charges with the Hefei Intermediate People’s Court. Prosecutors have informed the two defendants and the family of the victim of their litigation rights during the investigation period, accord- ing to the Xinhua report. They have interrogated Bogu Kailai and Zhang Xiao- jun and heard the opinions of their lawyers. Investigation results show that Bogu Kailai, one of the defendants, and her son had confl icts with the British citi- zen Neil Heywood over fi nan- cial interests. Worrying about “Neil Heywood’s threat” to her son’s safety, Bogu Kailai and Zhang Xiaojun poisoned Neil Heywood to death, Xinhua cited prosecutors as saying. Th e facts of the two defen- dants’ crime are clear, and the evidence is irrefutable and substantial, prosecutors said, suggesting the two defen- dants should be charged with intentional homicide. The Hefei Intermediate People’s Court has received the case, and a trial date will be set. Bogu Kailai is the wife of Bo Xilai, former Party chief of Southwest China’s Chongqing municipality and a former member of the Political Bureau of Commu- nist Party of China Central Committee. In March Bo Xilai was replaced by Vice-Premier Zhang Dejiang as Party chief of Chongqing. In April, the CPC Central Committee suspended Bo from his posts at the commit- tee and its Political Bureau because “Bo is suspected of being involved in serious vio- lations of discipline”. Bo is under investigation by the CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection. around china Pictures: Wang Hongbin plays guitar as up to 1 million volts, generated by a Tesla coil transformer, runs through his body during a stunt at his home in Fujian province.
