China News: Baidu's initial investor continues VC foray
Baidu.com Inc's excellent stock performance on Nasdaq in New York fueled the development of the Chinese Internet industry last year, and now the Internet search firm's initial investor has come to Shanghai to continue his venture capital foray into other startup firms.
Jixun Foo, 37, is one of five managing directors of Granite Global Ventures, which manages US$400 million at present.
"Personally speaking, the No. 1 thing for me this year is to move my life (from Singapore) to Shanghai," Foo said at his office on Huaihai Road.
Since Foo was appointed to his current title in November, he has invested in Blogcn, a popular Chinese Website which provides an online diary service.
The rise in the Internet population in China, more mobile phone users and surging energy costs have made high-tech companies in the country hungry for capital to fund their next-step development. That has attracted a flood of venture capital firms to China to seek the "next Baidu."
In 2005, VC firms in China raised US$4 billion and top global players, including Sequoia Capital (Google's investor), entered China for the first time.
Compared with South Korea, China is a bigger market with more opportunities available, said Foo in fluent Mandarin. Granite's Chinese team, led by Foo, looks at more than 100 potential startups every month.
China News: Car sales rise over holidays
China's automakers reported sales growth of 20 percent to 50 percent during the Spring Festival holiday compared with last year, even though discounts weren't as deep as in recent months — and some manufacturers even raised prices.
The strong pricing was the result of a new made-to-order strategy adopted by China's automakers to avoid a repeat of last year's high inventory levels.
As a result, many would-be buyers will have wait to pick up their keys as popular models such as Toyota's Reiz, the Ford Focus and the new Passat Lingyu from Shanghai Volkswagen were out of stock even before the holiday began.
The encouraging sales performance followed an upward sales trend that began in October.
Small cars including the Cherry QQ, which were priced between 20,000 yuan (US$2,480) and 40,000 yuan, and the Gol by Shanghai Volkswagen were the most popular during the holiday, with sales surging 50 percent.
Prices were not as low as some buyers expected, however, due to the effects of the shift to a made-to-order strategy employed by more and more Chinese automakers, including Shanghai Volkswagen Automobile Co Ltd, Guangzhou Honda Automobile Corp and Guangzhou Toyota Motor Corp.
The smaller number of cars in stock showed up on the sticker prices at many sales lots.
For instance, Shanghai General Motor's Buick Excelle equipped with a 1.6-liter engine sold for 117,800 yuan during the seven-day holiday, almost 10 percent higher than two weeks ago, according to Shanghai Yongjie Auto Sales Corp.
Other models from Toyota Motors Corp and Shanghai Volkswagen, which offered 10,000 yuan discounts last year to bolster sales, were only 4,000 yuan cheaper this year.
"The new production strategy, which aims to ease inventories, lagged the heavy market demand after auto sales picked up again in the second half of last year," auto dealer Shen Gang told Shanghai Daily yesterday.
"The holiday car prices are temporary because most automakers will set prices high in hopes of generating as much profit as possible during the prime sales period, especially after being freed from pressure to achieve (year-end) sales targets.
"With more new cars to be launched and a more ample supply after Spring Festival, prices are likely to fall around the end of this month."
China News: Nanjing Auto to produce sports cars
Nanjing Automobile Group Corp will restart production only of sports cars at the former MG Rover Group Ltd plant in central England, the Financial Times said, citing unidentified people close to the matter.
Nanjing, which bought the assets of Rover last year, and its partner GB Sports Car, a company set up by former Rover managers, have no plans to restart production of saloon cars at the Longbridge factory in Birmingham, the newspaper reported.
China News: Shanghai to sample forex sales
China's central bank plans to remove restrictions and allow the sale of small amounts of foreign currency on a trial basis in Shanghai's Pudong New Area this year.
The test plan was reported by the Shanghai headquarters of the People's Bank of China as part of the bank's work plan for 2006. Details such as maximum conversion limits were not announced, however.
At present, China imposes strict regulations on converting its yuan into hard currency.
Chinese citizens cannot buy foreign currency unless they show visas or other documents indicating they need the money for overseas travel or education.
Expatriates who earn yuan have to produce job contracts and salary certificates to change their salaries into foreign currency. And even in those cases, limits apply.
The restrictions have fostered a thriving black market in foreign currencies.
Zhao Wei, a foreign exchange analyst at China Merchants Bank, said the central bank's trial program signals China is getting ready to further open its forex market.
The government, which has pledged to relax controls gradually, took several important steps to do so last year.
The State Administration of Foreign Exchange raised maximum limits for foreign currency transactions by individuals last August.
For travelers abroad, the top limit was increased to US$8,000 or its forex equivalent from US$5,000 for people holding visas valid for more than a half year. For visa periods less than six months, the exchange limit was raised to US$5,000 from US$3,000.
Foreign currency exchange volume surged 45 percent over the Spring Festival holiday, the Shanghai branch of the Bank of China said yesterday.
China's forex reserves hit a record US$818.9 billion last year, a year-on-year growth of 34.3 percent.
China News: Cookson may add new plant in China
Cookson Group, the world’s largest maker of molds for the steel industry, may build another factory in China after surging demand from the nation used up the entire capacity of an expanded plant meant to serve Asia as a whole.
The company last year doubled production of ceramic linings used in steel foundries at its factory in Suzhou, northwest of Shanghai. Customers in China, the world’s No. 3 producer as well as the biggest consumer worldwide, quickly absorbed its output, preventing exports to neighboring markets, chief executive officer Nick Salmon said.
“When we started that project, we thought initially we would use it as an export base for South Korea and elsewhere," Salmon said. “But by the time it was finished, capacity was taken care of just in the Chinese market."
Cookson, which now employs more people in China than in its U.K. home bases, may benefit as the world’s fourth-largest economy shifts to higher-quality steel from lower grades used in bridges, roads and railroads, Salmon said. The company will increase production at its existing sites in the next few years and may open a new plant in Tianjin, south of Beijing, he said.
China has doubled crude steel output in the past four years to meet surging demand for buildings, cars and home appliances.
China News: Tai Fook eyes futures brokerage tie
Tai Fook Securities Group Ltd. (HK: 0665) expects to clinch a futures brokerage deal on the mainland this year, according to the head of the retail-focused Hong Kong brokerage firm.
“We’re in talks with about three to four Chinese candidates for a joint venture brokerage, and we should be able to set it up sometime this year,” said Peter Wong, Tai Fook Group’s managing director.
“What we want, though, is a 49 percent stake and especially management control,” he added. “The futures commodity business is a highly leveraged one, and we wouldn’t be interested unless we had control.”
Under the second phase of the Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement signed by Hong Kong and the mainland late last year, Hong Kong-registered brokerage firms can own up to 49 percent of joint-venture futures brokerages on the mainland. Non-Hong Kong foreign brokerages are limited to a 33 percent stake in joint-venture securities brokers.
Wong said futures brokerages, which generally have more institutional clients on the mainland than securities brokerages, “have less worries about owning portfolios where the integrity of company personnel is questioned.” They are also usually in better shape than their securities counterparts. Many of the mainland’s over 130 securities brokerages have been grappling with losses.
Tai Fook’s latest move across the border comes as the financial firm changes its strategic focus.
China News: China Aviation Oil shares to resume trading
Shares of China Aviation Oil (Singapore) Corp., suspended since November 2004 after the company¡¯s US$550 million trading loss, will resume trading at the end of March, said Gu Yanfei, head of a restructuring task force.
A meeting will be held in the first week of March where shareholders will vote on the issuance of shares to new investors BP Plc. and Temasek Holdings Pte., as well as creditors, Gu said. They will also approve the new board, which would in turn appoint a new chief executive officer, she said.
¡°What we are looking at is the management and the governance of the company going forward,¡± Gu told reporters Friday after a meeting with shareholders, the first since trading of the stock was halted.
China Aviation Oil¡¯s derivatives-related loss was Singapore¡¯s biggest since former trader Nick Leeson lost US$1.4 billion at Barings Plc. in 1995.
Reports by PricewaterhouseCoopers, the accounting firm that examined China Aviation Oil¡¯s losses on behalf of Singapore¡¯s stock exchange, said the company overrode risk controls and failed to follow correct accounting procedures.
China News: China to build 800kv transmission line
China Southern Power Grid plans to build a 800 kilovolt (kv) direct-current transmission line from southwest China's Yunnan Province to south China's Guangdong Province during the 2006-2010 period.
The line, the first of its kind in the world, will transmit electric power generated by Xiaowan and Jinanqiao hydropower stations in Yunnan to the load centre in Guangdong.
Compared with the existing 500-kv double-current transmission line, the 800-kv one is a super electric expressway with more capacity and stable performance, which will improve the transmission capacity by a big margin.
According to the country's plan to transmit electricity from the western areas to eastern China, an additional 11.5 million to 13.5 million kW of electricity will be sent to Guangdong Province during the 11th Five-Year Program (2006-2010) with the new transmission line to play an important role.
China News: Medical product export up 30%
In 2005, China exported medical products worth 13.8 billion U.S. dollars, up 28.1 percent over the previous year, and imported medical products totaling 11.84 billion U.S. dollars, up 18.5 percent, the Ministry of Commerce reports.
China exported 12.97 billion dollars worth of western medicine, which accounted for 94 percent of its total medicine export over the year, according to the ministry.
Meanwhile, the export volume of raw-material western medicine made up 57.3 percent of China's medicine export, reaching 7.9 billion dollars, and that of medical equipment made up 26.7 percent, reaching 3.68 billion dollars.
China's export of biochemical medicine leaped 50.8 percent to 480 million dollars over the year, the fastest growth among all kinds of western medicine export.
In 2005, the country also exported Chinese medicine worth 830 million dollars, including plant extracts of 290 million dollars, up 31.2 percent year-on-year, statistics show.
China News: Cross-bank card use peaks
China's bank card transactions soared to 11.8 billion yuan (US$1.46 billion) during the weeklong holiday of the Spring Festival ended Saturday, the Oriental Morning Post said today, citing China UnionPay Co.
The volume was nearly 2.5 times of the same period of last year, according to the Shanghai-based newspaper.
The operator of China's bank card system also said 34 million cross-bank card transactions took place during the holiday, jumping 135 percent from last year.
Overseas markets also posted strong growth, as more Chinese people made use of the weeklong holiday to travel overseas, including Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore and South Korea.
In the period, overseas markets covered by China UnionPay network generated 680 million yuan, surging more than 122 percent.
China UnionPay expanded its service to more overseas markets last year, including the United States, Germany, France, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia, and New Zealand.
China UnionPay, considered the Chinese version of Visa and MasterCard, was set up in 2002 as an integrated system for all bank card transactions.
China News: Huawei expands int'l service
China's telecommunications equipment manufacturer Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd, the country's largest privately-owned exporter of hi-tech products, saw its overseas sales exceed domestic sales in 2005, the Ministry of Commerce reported.
Last year, Huawei's contracted sales volume totaled 66.7 billion yuan (about 8.3 billion U.S. dollars), 58 percent of which was gained from its overseas services, according to ministry figures.
In 2005, Huawei's market share of NGN and IP-DSLAM technologies ranked number one in the world, and its 3G technology was commercially used in 18 countries and regions including the Netherlands, Portugal and Malaysia. Huawei has become a strategic cooperation partner with world-renowned telecom companies such as Telefonica and Vodafone.
The Ministry of Commerce attributed Huawei's success to its ongoing commitment to technological innovation, advanced research and development and protection of intellectual property rights.
Figures from the State Intellectual Property Office show Huawei has applied for the most patents in the country. By the end of 2005, Huawei had applied for a total of more than 10,000 patents, 90 percent of which were invention patents.
China News: Stock markets close higher on first trading day
Chinese stock markets closed higher on Monday, the first trading day of the Year of Dog on the country's lunar calendar, with two major stock indices up by more than 2 percent.
The Composite Stock Index on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, which comprises yuan-denominated A shares and foreign-currency B shares, closed at a new high in 2006 of 1,287.63 points, up 29.5 points, or 2.35 percent. Total turnover was 14.9 billion yuan (1.8 billion US dollars).
The major index of Shenzhen Stock Exchange, the Shenzhen Composite Index, rose 117 points, or 3.61 percent, to close at 3,359 points, with total a turnover of 9.1 billion yuan (1.1 billion US dollars).
A total of 1,101 shares listed on the two bourses went up on Monday, 60 shares were down and 18 shares maintained their prices.
Analysts said the Shanghai Composite Stock Index is expected to exceed 1,300 points in the coming trading days.
Shares of listed firms specialized in non-ferrous metal rose by a daily maximum of 10 percent, followed by such blue chips as Anshan Steel and real estate giant Wanke.
Analysts with Tianzhen Investment Consultancy Co. expressed optimism about the prospects of Chinese share markets in 2006, since ongoing share reform and increasing inflow of investment and underestimated share prices are making the Chinese A-share markets more valuable and attractive.
The markets were bearish during the past four years due to their flawed institutional problems and poor corporate governance, which have been targeted by the Chinese Government in their ongoing drive to invigorate the capital market.
China News: Banking watchdog enhances on-the-spot inspections
In 2005, the China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC), the country's banking watchdog, sent a total of 15,280 inspection teams for on-the-spot examinations of 68,360 financial organizations, according to CBRC figures.
The inspections found that transactions worth 767.1 billion yuan (96 billion U.S. dollars) violated regulations, up 31.34 percent year-on-year, the CBRC said.
And 6,826 people were punished and 59,742 pieces of advice for service improvement and rectification were put forward by watchdogs.
The on-the-spot inspections covered 34 percent of banking services of those financial organizations examined.
Compared with similar inspection work in previous years, the on-the-spot banking inspections in 2005 proved more effective, and inspectors increased punishments of organizations and personnel found to be breaking regulations, according to the CBRC.
The CBRC also enhanced the follow-up protocols after the on-the-spot examinations, helping those financial organizations to raise the qualification rate of rectification and improvement in their work to an average level of 86.38 percent.
A spokesman for the CBRC expressed his hopes that such strict on-the-spot inspections over banks would continue in 2006 so as to protect clients' legitimate interests and sharpen competitiveness of Chinese banks.
China News: SOEs' profits exceed 900b yuan
Profits of China's State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) grew 25.1 percent year-on-year to 904.7 billion yuan (112 billion U.S. dollars) in 2005, reported the Economic Daily on Monday.
According to a recent finance report from China's Ministry of Finance, the sales revenue of the SOEs totaled 11,534 billion yuan (1,424 billion U.S. dollars) last year, up 19.2 percent from the previous year.
The report also said that profits of China's central SOEs grew 27.3 percent to 641 billion yuan (79 billion dollars) in 2005.
China has continued to prompt reforms of SOEs in the past decade, resulting in gradual increases in SOE's profits, the newspaper said.
Meanwhile, the government has adopted related policies to encourage innovations among SOEs, propelling their sustainable development, it said.
China News: New e-banking rules to take effect next month
Two new rules for the rising electronic banking (e-banking) business issued by China's banking watchdog will take effect on March 1 this year.
The China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) said here on Monday that it has just issued the management rules and the security evaluation guidance on e-banking business in line with international regulations.
A spokesman with the CBRC said the two new rules will affect the e-banking business operated by all Chinese banks and all kinds of financial companies set up in China.
The management rules on e-banking business are divided into 99 items under nine chapters, covering procedures for application, risk management, out-sourcing business, trans-national business and the relevant legal obligations.
The security evaluation guidance on e-banking is divided into 57 items under five chapters, which are focused on specific security evaluation activities.
The spokesman said the two new rules on e-banking in China will help enforce government supervision over the e-banking market and improve the service of the banking sector to meet the rising demand from consumers.
China News: China Aviation Oil shares to resume trading
Shares of China Aviation Oil (Singapore) Corp., suspended since November 2004 after the company’s US$550 million trading loss, will resume trading at the end of March, said Gu Yanfei, head of a restructuring task force.

Reports by PricewaterhouseCoopers, the accounting firm that examined China Aviation Oil’s losses on behalf of Singapore’s stock exchange, said the company overrode risk controls and failed to follow correct accounting procedures.
China News: Pincus pays US$150m for stake in GOME
GOME Electrical Appliances Holding Ltd. and Warburg Pincus unveiled a deal Thursday in which the private equity firm will pay US$150 million for the right to buy almost a 10th of China's top electronics retail chain.
Under the agreement, GOME will sell convertible bonds and warrants to Warburg Pincus to bankroll an aggressive expansion aimed at staving off homegrown rivals such as Paradise Electronics Retail Ltd., and potential foreign entrants such as Best Buy Inc.
Warburg Pincus, with about US$12 billion under management and another US$7 billion available for investment, has ploughed more than US$700 million into China since 1995 in sectors ranging from real estate to retail — part of a surge of private equity investment into the country.
GOME is eager to expand its share of the hotly contested US$55 billion electronics retail market, where scale is crucial for cost savings, to as much as 15 percent by 2008.
GOME and its parent plan to open 200 outlets this year, on top of more than 400 across China now. The listed company said in December it planned to open about 100 stores in 2006.
China News: Investors cash out of rising stock market
Credit Suisse Group, Schroders Plc. and other companies that manage stock funds invested on the Chinese mainland face a dilemma: though returns are up, their assets are down.
Schroders'joint-venture fund shrank to 2.5 billion yuan (US$310 million) from 4.9 billion yuan in the fourth quarter, even as the units gained 8 percent in value, according to the fund's quarterly report. Assets in Credit Suisse's China fund fell by 10 percent as the units rose 5 percent in value.
Domestic investors, who have had to weather slumping stock prices over the past five years, have been tempted to take profits from a recent rally. The Shanghai and Shenzhen Composite Indexes are the world's worst performing stock benchmarks since 2001.
"We've lost assets because our performance was good,'" said Shen Xuefang, a strategist with Bank of Communications Schroder Fund Management Co. "Many Chinese fund investors, especially individuals, have a short-term view. Stung by losses of the past few years, they're taking profits even though the outlook remains attractive."
Chinese stocks have rallied 15 percent since December on optimism that government steps to bolster the market are working. In July, the government more than doubled the total quota available under its so-called qualified foreign institutional investor (QFII) program to US$10 billion. It also suspended new share sales as it began to dispose of nontradable shares, easing concern it would flood the market with unwanted stock.
A bull market has started and 2006 could be a turning point for Chinese equities, said ICBC Credit Suisse Asset Management Co. in its quarterly fund report. China's low stock valuations, appreciating currency, low interest rates and adequate liquidity will support further market growth, the venture said.
Some local investors take a different view.
"It's time to redeem funds now, especially if your investment has turned from a loss to a profit," said Jack Ni, who manages investments at China Aerospace Sciences & Industry Corp., a maker of weapons and missiles systems. "It would be safer to put money in bank deposits or bonds."
A survey released in December indicated that about 77 percent of stock investors lost money on the stock markets last year, Xinhua reported.
The Shanghai Composite has dropped 38 percent in dollar terms since Jan. 1, 2001, while the Shenzhen index has slumped 50 percent over the same period, making it the worst performer of 78 primary stock indexes in the world.
Many funds that have had losses "have just began to show profits on the recent rally," said Huang Xiaoping, a Shenzhen- based analyst at Morningstar Inc., a U.S. funds rating agency. "Many Chinese investors are trading in funds the same way as they trade stocks, whereas in the United States, investors would take a longer-term view."
The government has been encouraging the development of the funds industry to bolster its US$335 billion stock market. Domestic banks last year were allowed to set up fund-management units in a move aimed at boosting the country's capital markets.
Bank of Communications Ltd., China's fifth-largest lender, raised 4.9 billion yuan in September in its first mutual fund with partner Schroders.
In the same month, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, the country's biggest bank, raised 4.3 billion yuan in its maiden equity fund with Credit Suisse.
"Funds set up by banks will attract many short-term retail investors," said Shi Shile, a marketing manager at Fortune SGAM Fund Management Co. "So, it's not unusual to see big capital outflows in the first few months."
The mainland now has 52 fund management companies, including 20 joint ventures. They had raised about 500 billion yuan by the end of January, according to the China Securities Regulatory Commission.
China News: China launches anti-dumping probe into EU potato starch
China announced on Monday that it will launch an anti-dumping investigation into potato starch imported from the European Union.
According to a statement from the Ministry of Commerce, the ministry began on Monday to look into whether dumping exists, the extent of the dumping and its negative effects, if dumping is indeed confirmed.
The ministry advised that anti-dumping investigations usually take one year to complete, but the deadline could be extended to Aug. 6, 2007 under special circumstances.
Good Morning everyone. Thanks Mick and peoria for running the board.
Have a great day everyone

North Korea Warns of Nuclear War

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - North Korea warned of nuclear war Saturday and vowed to strengthen its deterrent forces as it demanded that Washington show evidence backing its allegation that the communist regime is counterfeiting U.S. money.
"Dark clouds of a nuclear war are hanging low over the Korean Peninsula," the North's official Rodong Sinmun newspaper said in a commentary carried by state-run Korean Central News Agency.
"The ever-more frantic moves of the U.S. to ignite a new war against (North Korea) would only compel it ... to bolster its deterrent for self-defense in every way."
The North repeatedly has accused the United States of planning to attack. Washington has denied any such intention.
The North's comments Saturday follow a South Korea-U.S. agreement this month giving American troops more flexibility in the South.
The North said the pact was aimed at preparing for war.
Also Saturday, the North dismissed U.S. accusations of counterfeiting and other illicit activities like drug trafficking.
"The nature and mission of (North Korea) do not allow such things as bad treatment of the people, counterfeiting and drug trafficking to happen in it," KCNA said.
A pro-North Korean newspaper in Japan also urged Washington to prove its allegation that North Korea is counterfeiting U.S. currency.
"If there is suspicion and clear evidence as claimed by the United States, (the U.S.) can present it and prove (it)," the Choson Sinbo newspaper said.
The United States "continues to leak plausible information but the reality is that there is nothing to confirm the fact objectively," it said.
The newspaper sometimes acts as an unofficial mouthpiece for the reclusive, communist North.
North Korea has recently stepped up criticism of the United States for imposing sanctions over its alleged illicit activities.
In September, Washington slapped restrictions on a bank in the Chinese territory of Macau, saying it had helped the North distribute counterfeit money and engage in smuggling.
A month later, Washington imposed sanctions on eight North Korean companies it said were fronts for proliferating weapons of mass destruction.
The North has refused to return to international talks on its nuclear weapons program until Washington lifts the sanctions.
The United States has dismissed the threat, saying the sanctions are unrelated to the nuclear issue.
On Friday, South Korean Foreign Minister Ban Ki-moon said there were indications that the six-country negotiations over the North's nuclear programs could resume in February.
The last session of the talks - involving the two Koreas, the United States, Japan, China and Russia - was held in November.

China Energy files for a 10 mln share offering, and a 6.05 mln share offering by selling stockholders (CESV) 7.22 -0.22 : In two seperate filings the co announces " We may offer, from time to time in one or more transactions, up to 10 mln shares of our common stock, at market value. The Shares may be offered to or through underwriters, through agents or dealers, directly to one or more purchasers or through a combination of such methods" In the second filing the co says "This prospectus relates to the resale of up to 6,050,000 shares of our common stock held of record by New Solomon Consultants Limited, our principal stockholder, named in the section of this prospectus entitled "Selling Stockholder"."
Onyx Software: CDC Corp Withdraws Proposal to Onyx (ONXS) 4.63 -0.17 : CSC Corp (CHINA) announces it has withdrawn its proposal for a proposed strategic transaction involving a combination of CDC Software with Onyx Software. While CDC Corporation continues to believe that a strategic combination would be highly complimentary, would generate substantial synergies and optimize value for both CDC Corporation and Onyx shareholders, it has now concluded that it would be prudent to discontinue its pursuit of a business combination between CDC Software and Onyx. The execution risks of the proposed transaction are heightened given the circumstances including the lack of receptiveness by Onyx's management and board and uncertainty of the Onyx business prospects. CDC Corp is therefore unwilling to offer a cash or share premium to the Onyx shareholders at this time given that the valuation is already significantly higher than when CDC first approached Onyx with its proposal.
PacificNet's subsidiary partners with Chinese Entertainment International to launch iPACT mobile video services (PACT) 7.28 +0.43 : Co announces that its subsidiary Guangzhou 3G has partnered with Chinese Entertainment International to launch the iPACT Mobile Video Services. With the anticipated launch of 3G services in China, mobile video is widely recognized by mobile operators, value-added service providers and mobile device manufacturers to drive new mobile revenue growth. Under the iPACT program, the co will sign up qualified value-added service providers as profit sharing members in China under a unified brand "iPACT". The co will provide to qualified VAS-Alliance partners, on a profit sharing basis.
LJ Intl announces its ENZO division in China reaches 20-store milestone (JADE) 3.51 +0.01 : Co reported that its China retail division, E.N.Z.O, has just opened its 20th retail store in China, well-ahead of its goal of at least 40 retail stores by the end of 2006. E.N.Z.O's better-than-expected initial performance in 2005 enabled the retail chain to beat its 2005 financial and store opening schedule by over a month. The E.N.Z.O unit now has one or more retail locations in China's largest population centers, including Shanghai, Beijing, Harbin, Qingdao, Shenyang, Ningbo, Chengdu, Changsha, Wuxi, Hong Kong, Macau, Shenzhen and Wuxi. The current 20-store total puts the co well ahead of other competing jewelry retailers based outside the People's Republic of China. "We have been extremely pleased by the results so far from our E.N.Z.O stores, which have easily exceeded our sales expectations to this point. And this is just the start. We now look forward to maintaining or accelerating the current pace of store openings in the current year" As previously announced, the co is now projecting overall sales of approx $2 mln from ENZO stores in 2005
CDC Software to acquire provider of on-demand supply chain planning solutions, JRG Software (CHINA) 4.16 0.26 : Co announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to purchase substantially all of the business assets of JRG Software a leader in on-demand supply chain planning solutions delivered as Software as a Service (SaaS). The transaction, which is expected to close by the end of the month, subject to various closing conditions, is anticipated to be highly accretive to CHINA through the current hosted service environment of JRG Software customers and through cross-channel opportunities in the global CHINA customer community of more than 4,000 companies worldwide.
Oil-hungry China courts Saudi king
Sunday January 22, 1:48 AM EST
By Emma Graham-Harrison and Chris Buckley
BEIJING (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah arrived in Beijing on Sunday for his first ever state visit and analysts said China wants to draw closer to the Middle Eastern oil power without challenging Saudi ties to Washington.
The world's number two oil consumer, China has been scouring the globe for crude to feed its booming economy, tempting potential partners with aid packages, diplomatic support -- and for those at odds with Washington -- the prospect of a large non-U.S. market.
The Saudi King, who is in his early 80s, was crowned in August 2005. He visited China as crown prince in 1998.
His visit follows soon after Beijing's first formal talks with the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in late December, worrying some policy-makers in the United States who fear a showdown over access to Middle Eastern oil.
Chinese analysts said that while China is eager for stable oil supplies, it has neither the cash nor will to challenge the United States -- Saudi Arabia's top diplomatic ally outside the region and also its biggest oil customer -- for its role in the Middle East.
"The United States and Saudi Arabia have a special relationship, and it doesn't matter how good relations with India or China become, its not going to break that special connection," said Chen Fengying of the China Institute of Contemporary International Relations, a government think-tank.
Saudi Arabia was China's top supplier of oil in the first 11 months of last year, providing 17 percent of its imports, nearly 440,000 barrels per day (bpd).
But this was under a third of shipments to the United States over the same period, at 1.43 million bpd.
China and the United States both want to see oil flowing uninterrupted from the Middle East, said one Chinese energy expert with government connections who declined to be named.
"If the U.S. is willing to keep soldiers there, we are happy to keep quiet. This trip has potential (only) in the imaginations of people in Washington who worry about the China connection ... maybe it's in the Saudi interest to leave room for imagination."
Saudi desires to avoid highlighting its ties to Washington, as much as long-term strategic planning, may have pushed China to the top of the king's agenda, said Zhang Bin of the Center for Energy Strategy at the foreign ministry think-tank China Institute of International Studies.
"At the moment the United States has a lot of problems in the Islamic world. Its relationship is not very good, so they may have wanted to avoid going there first," he said.
From Beijing, the king will fly to India -- which has vied with China for several energy deals -- then Malaysia and finally Pakistan.
SECURITY ON AGENDA
The monarch is traveling with a large business delegation, including Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi.
Topics on the table for discussion besides energy will be counter-terrorism and military cooperation, a Chinese foreign ministry spokesman said.
Saudi Arabia has been fighting a campaign launched by Islamists sympathetic to al Qaeda in 2003 to topple the monarchy. China also says it faces a security threat from Muslim extremists in its remote far west.
China is already in talks about establishing a free trade area with the Gulf Cooperation Council, a regional economic organization with the six member states of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates.
The two sides, which last year saw trade volume rise over a third to $33.8 billion, expect to sign an agreement by the end of 2006, the official Xinhua agency reported.
But rivalry between the oil producers may also have helped spur the visit, after the Kuwaiti energy minister said last month the Gulf state would like to set up a second refinery in China.
"The most immediate trigger for the Saudi visit is the Kuwaiti move to make a comprehensive deal with the Chinese," said the Beijing-based expert.
Gulf states, which produce a heavier type of oil that Chinese refineries are ill-equipped to process, may find it easier to sell to China if they also invest in refineries.
Saudi Aramco last year signed a $3.5 billion deal together with Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM) and Sinopec , China's top refiner, to expand a refinery in south Fujian province.
It is also in talks with Sinopec about investing in a plant in the northern city of Qingdao. Industry officials have said Beijing aims to boost Saudi crude imports under term deals next year to limit the impact of spot buying on volatile prices.

China challenges U.S., Europe, Japan in scientific
research: UNESCO ( Kyodo )
PARIS, Jan 19, 2006 (Kyodo via COMTEX) --
China has led emerging Asian economies
in the research and development field, challenging the leadership
of North America, Europe and Japan, according to a report recently
released by the U.N. Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organization.
China had 810,000 researchers in 2002, compared with 646,500 in
Japan in the same year, according to the UNESCO Science Report
2005. Expenditure on R&D in China rose to 1.23 percent of its gross
domestic product in 2002 from 0.83 percent in 1999, the report
said.
Due to the rapid growth in China, Asia's share in R&D
expenditure in the world climbed to 31.5 percent in 2002 from 27.9
percent in 1997.
North America's share fell to 37 percent from 38.2 percent, and
Europe's share also dipped to 27.3 percent from 28.8 percent in the
same time frame.
In Europe, countries such as Romania, Portugal and Turkey are
narrowing the gap from Germany, the Netherlands and France in terms
of innovation, according to the report.
Brain drain continues to affect many countries including India,
which has remarkable achievements in software development, space,
biotechnology and pharmaceutical research, the report said. Many of
its highly trained graduates are lured abroad, mainly to the United
States, it said.

MOSCOW, Russia (AP) -- Arctic temperatures gripping most of Russia pushed the death toll across the frozen country to more than 30 people and even hardy Russians struggled to cope with the big freeze.
Electricity use surged to record levels and towns and cities struggled to keep indoor temperatures up as temperatures in Moscow plunged to as low as minus-31 Celsius (minus-24 Fahrenheit) on Thursday.
Seven people died of exposure in the Russian capital over the previous 24 hours, city emergency officials said, pushing the nationwide death toll from the Siberian cold wave that swept into Moscow late Monday to at least 31 by late Thursday.
At a zoo in Lipetsk, south of Moscow, director Alexander Osipov said monkeys would be given wine three times day, "to protect against colds," the RIA-Novosti news agency reported.
Schoolchildren stayed home and drivers struggled to start cars but thousands of religious believers -- along with other hardy souls -- plunged into icy waters nationwide for an annual ritual marking the Russian Orthodox Christian holiday of Epiphany. (View images from Russia)
The temperature was the lowest recorded on January 19 since 1927, said Tatyana Pozdnyakova, a Moscow weather forecasting service official. This year is the coldest since the winter of 1978-1979, when temperatures reached minus-38 Celsius (-36.4 Fahrenheit).
Vendors at Moscow's outdoor food and clothing markets shuttered their booths and outdoor ATMs reportedly froze up, while traffic was uncharacteristically light as drivers were reluctant to venture out or unable to start their cars. Outside one apartment building, residents hefted car batteries back into their vehicles after taking them home overnight to keep them warm. Others tried to jump-start their cars.
Many parents kept their children home from school. At least two towns in the Moscow region saw heat disrupted by water main breaks, leaving dozens of homes and thousands of people shivering. A similar accident left thousands without heat in Siberia's Chita region, some 4,700 kilometers (3,000 miles) east of Moscow. Russian buildings frequently are heated by municipal hot water systems.
Many people shrugged off the cold to mark Epiphany by dipping into holes cut into thick ice on rivers and ponds, a ritual that commemorates the baptism of Jesus Christ in the River Jordan.
"Minus-30 is the most intense feeling," one man in the Ural Mountains city of Yekaterinburg told Channel One television after taking a dip, his eyebrows rimed with frost.
At one location in northeast Moscow, Vladimir Grebyonkin, an avid 65-year-old winter swimmer and scientist, said the frigid temperatures gave the water special qualities.
"These waters have their own properties, their own benefits," he says. "I'm not a believer (in God), but I'm believer in physics."
Electricity use reached a 15-year high earlier this week, power monopoly RAO Unified Energy Systems said Wednesday. The company also said Russia might reduce electricity supplies to Finland in order to ensure deliveries to St. Petersburg and the surrounding region.
Russia's state-controlled natural gas monopoly OAO Gazprom meanwhile tried to maintain exports -- a sensitive issue for Europe following a New Year's interruption in supplies stemming from a dispute between Russia and Ukraine.
Gazprom said Thursday that it was fulfilling all its contracts to European customers and said it had pumped an extra 750 million cubic meters of gas to domestic users this week to compensate for increased usage during the cold snap.
Friday was expected to bring slightly warmer temperatures, with a forecast weekend high in Moscow of about minus-20 (minus-4).
