China will ''take us as a prize'': Fraser
BY:BERNARD LANE - The Australian - April 21, 2012 12:00AM
AUSTRALIA could end up "taken as a prize" by China if a US policy of military containment leads to defeat for our American allies, former prime minister Malcolm Fraser has warned.
"If we have been a compliant ally of a virtually defeated super-power would we not be regarded as a prize - a prize to be taken?," Mr Fraser says in a submission to the Asian Century white paper. He argues that Australia''s decisions to welcome US troops to the Northern Territory and to entertain the idea of US surveillance drones in the Cocos Islands were part of a bigger picture of Australia as a subservient partner in an attempt to contain China by military means.
Yesterday he told The Weekend Australian he believed hostilities between China and the US were likely within the next 40 to 50 years unless the US abandoned its policy of containment. And his submission argues that China would win. "We know China could sustain massive casualties and would still fight, the US could not," he says.
"If they couldn''t win in Vietnam, if they couldn''t win in Iraq, and they can''t win in Afghanistan, how could they possibly win against China?" He says China would be able to force the US to withdraw to the western hemisphere, exposing the folly of Australia''s belief in US protection. Asked what he meant by Australia being taken as a prize, he said: "I don''t think I really want to expand on that."
A spokesperson for the US embassy in Canberra said it was simply not true that the US was pursuing a policy of containing China. The thrust of Mr Fraser''s submission is that Australia has naively looked to great powers for protection, first Britain and now the US, and instead must carve out a truly independent role in the region.
He says the stationing of US troops in the NT is "a major and significant mistake". US marines arrived in Darwin this month for training with the Australian Defence Force. "For America to say that 2500 troops do not constitute a base is nonsense, indeed a fabrication," Mr Fraser says. "If the US wishes to conduct a hostile action from Australian shores we are complicit in that action and party to it. The Americans will not ask our permission first before the troops are used."
The US embassy spokesperson said these claims were "absolutely false" because US troops would be on short rotation in various locations and the US "would not do anything from Australia''s bases without full knowledge and concurrence". |

评论：郎咸平：中国人退休后面临悲惨生活 应效仿欧美改革 |

《福布斯》統計顯示，2011年上榜的400位中國富豪的財富達到4590億美元，如果按照1：6.4的匯率計算，相當於29376億元人民幣。而據新華社報導，2010年年底我國城鄉居民人民幣儲蓄存款餘額達303302億元。照此計算，400位富豪的“身家”相當於全國居民去年年底儲蓄額的9.69%。這就是說，400位富豪身家接近全民儲蓄的十分之一。
富豪是改革開放的得益者，也是屬於讓少數人先富裕起來，可是並未有帶動全民共同富裕，目前處在貧困線的人佔相當比例。據《中國科學院最近完成的2012年中國可持續發展戰略報告》提出：中國發展中的人口壓力依然巨大，按2010年標準，貧困人口有2.89億。而按2011年提高後的貧困標準(農村居民家庭人均純收入2300元人民幣/ 年)，中國還有1.28億貧困人口。城鎮職工貧困也佔相當比例，月薪一千多至二千元人民幣的不少。猶其是原國有企業老職工，為國家建設奉獻一生，在調整國營企業中下崗，人老了又無專業技能，再就業也只有低工資。試想夫婦兩人打工，月收入不足三千元人民幣，租住房去掉一半，剩下一半還要供兒女讀書，生活如何過得好？
建國初原國家幹部為國家建設耗盡一生，為服從組織安排而調職到國有企業當領導，做“開荒牛”。 在改革中原總理朱鎔基學習香港公務員制度，“高薪養廉”，多次大幅度提升行政幹部工資，而國企幹部不動，把差距拉大，使退休後的行政幹部與國企幹部工資差距拉到3比1，一位處級國企領導幹部退休金比不上行政掃地的勤雜人員，真是“斯文掃地”，可悲！可嘆！但今天的國企領導幹部的工資待遇卻放任自流，毫無節制，享有國家壟斷專利的國企領導幹部年薪數百萬或數千萬元人民幣，中層幹部也有年薪數十萬或數百萬元人民幣，成了特殊階層。
收入分配不公，形成社會兩極分化，貧富差距越拉越大，成為社會的隱患。只有走共同富裕道路，才是社會主義的光輝大道。
當前，共同富裕已成為社會關注的焦點，萬眾關注。決不能只是少數人百萬、千萬地發家暴富，而工農大眾卻享受不到改革成果。如果任由差距拉大、甚至兩極分化，人們自然會懷疑黨的政策，隨之人心渙散。

Click here for more event information
Thursday, April 19, 2012
4:00 PM – 5:30 PM
New Location: Bunche Hall, Room 10367

www.international.ucla.edu/china
Cultural and Creative industries (CCI) are potentially among the most influential sunrise industries in the 21st century, therefore both advanced countries and Asia-pacific emerging countries are continuing to strengthen the development of those industries. With the rise of the Greater China economy, mainland China has gradually transformed itself from world factory to world market. China''''s government has decided to push cultural industries strategically as a key economic sector in the 12th 5-year plan. By promoting it to become a pillar industry of the national economy by 2015, China’s plan offers abundant opportunities for the industry. At the same time, the Taiwan authority has continued to cultivate the CCI as a major national development policy. Taiwan signed the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) with China in 2010, substantially opening economic exchange and cooperation across the straits.
In the post-ECFA era, what are the charisma and market opportunities of Greater China’s experience economy? And how can China and Taiwan integrate mutually complementary advantages to form industrial value networks and enhance their international competitiveness to succeed in the global market? Prof. Tse-Ping Dong will offer an in-depth analysis of the prospects and outlook for the CCI from the perspective of the cross-strait co-opetitive strategy.
About the Speaker: Tse-Ping Dong, Ph.D.
Professor Dong, Associate Professor of College of Management at National Taiwan Normal University and adjunct Associate Professor of College of Fine Arts, earned his MBA and Ph.D. from the College of Management at National Taiwan University, 2011-2012 and is currently a Fulbright Visiting Scholar at UCLA and UCSD. He specializes in digital content and cultural & creative industries, industrial research of motion pictures, innovation & entrepreneurship and investment, intellectual property and Asia-Pacific business strategies. He is particularly interested in cross-disciplinary research integrating business management, arts, technology and law. Professor Dong has published extensively, including more than 20 papers in several renowned international journals (SSCI/SCI/TSSCI/EI rank). |
