Despite nearly 40 people having been killed in nine separate gold mineaccidents in Quang Nam alone since 2009, thousands continue to put their lives at risk while digging up ranges of mountains in the unlawful pursuit of the precious metal.
Sau bản tin tếng Anh là 2 video clips của truyền hình SBTN ở Mỹ. Các bạn cần lưu ý là công ty TV này không thân thiện với nhà nước VN, nên lời lẽ và phân tích có thể không trung lập. Hai người phát ngôn chính thức trên hai clips này là hai linh mục DCCT.
Về việc tôm cá chết hằng loạt, chúng ta cần chờ điều tra của các khoa học gia, nhưng mình đã có sưu tầm thông tin cho mình và đã tạm kết luận El Nino làm nước biển ở miền Trung nóng lên, là thủ phạm chính. Các nguồn pollution, nếu có ảnh hưởng đến tôm cá ở biển, là thủ phạm phụ.
Dù kết quả cuối cùng cho biết thế nào, chúng ta cần đợi các khoa học gia xác định.
Hundreds of people demonstrated in Vietnam on Sunday against a Taiwanese firm they accuse of causing mass fish deaths along the country’s central coast, with some also blaming the government for a sluggish response to a major environmental disaster.

die-gdi _ Global patterns of poverty do not look like they did twenty years ago. Many developing countries have been able to raise their average per-capita income over the last two decades; 18 have even trespassed the highly noticed – though arbitrary – ceiling differentiating between ‘low income’ and ‘middle income countries’ (LICs and MICs).
edutopia – As a society, we learn about the world and advance our well being through science and engineering. The United States may be known around the world for its higher education, but compared to many other leading and steadily emerging countries, we lack a strong focus on educating scientists and engineers. One significant reason that we have fallen behind is that we do not encourage our female students to pursue career paths in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM).

Dear Friends
This professor from Guangdong Research Institute for International Strategies in Guangzhou, China, is saying that the US activities to protect international freedom of navigation in the East Sea will prompt China to toughen its position, not very good for the US.
Well, China has already treated the US, ASEAN countries, and the world like a bunch of wimps, and the world as a lawless place. The world simply has to put China to its place and tell China that this world is NOT a lawless place for bullies.
And this is not the US v. China, stupid! This is the world of law against lawless China.

Southeast Asian countries have set themselves renewable energy targets that are even more ambitious than some European countries, but they are behind schedule in reaching these goals. Government policies and private money are key to its progress.

UNESCOBKK – Thailand’s adaptive capacity to climate change is high among Mekong countries, while the western coastline of Myanmar and the Cambodian Mekong lowland region are the areas of the sub-region most vulnerable to the phenomenon’s effects.
These were among the key findings of the report, “Climate Change Vulnerability Mapping for the Mekong River Basin”, based on a study carried out by UNESCO Bangkok and the Water Resources and Environment Institute (WREI) of Khon Kaen University’s Faculty of Engineering in Thailand.

weforum – On a recent trip to India, I met a 12-year-old girl, Kushboo, in the village of Bhairupura, not far from Jaipur. Bhairupura is a village of the Raigar people, a scheduled caste who traditionally work in shoe-making. There’s nothing beyond the village but forest. Few outsiders visit Bhairupura, except for the agents working for the carpet manufacturers who operate modern factories in Jaipur.
Those factories are where international buyers are brought to tour. But many of their rugs are not produced at these locations. Rather, they are being made in villages like Bhairupura, by children like Kushboo – a cheap, captive and unseen workforce.

Oversupply and high manufacturing costs, as well as a chronic lack of state support are the major reasons behind the closing of ethanol factories in general and PetroVietnam factories in particular, according to newswire Tuoitre.

The four pillars of learning are fundamental principles for reshaping education:
Learning to know: to provide the cognitive tools required to better comprehend the world and its complexities, and to provide an appropriate and adequate foundation for future learning.
With a focus on civil and political rights, the Vietnam Programme seeks to support the development of a Vietnam governed according to the rule of law and human rights. By generating a space for discussion and facilitating the exchange of knowledge and experience, the Programme aims to contribute to a process driven by Vietnam itself and as reflected in their response to the Universal Periodic Review.
“Youth” is best understood as a period of transition from the dependence of childhood to adulthood’s independence and awareness of our interdependence as members of a community. Youth is a more fluid category than a fixed age-group.
However, age is the easiest way to define this group, particularly in relation to education and employment. Therefore “youth” is often indicated as a person between the age where he/she may leave compulsory education, and the age at which he/she finds his/her first employment. This latter age limit has been increasing, as higher levels of unemployment and the cost of setting up an independent household puts many young people into a prolonged period of dependency.
