HONG KONG Andrew Luck Hat , Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) is not a "China's bank," but a multilateral development institution operating by international standards, AIIB President Jin Liqun said at a financial forum in Hong Kong. "AIIB is a bank initiated by China, but it's not a 'China's bank'," Jin said, adding that AIIB, which was created through negotiations of all the 57 founding member countries and now has 84 members, is a multilateral development bank "operating by international standards and with 21-century governance." "We will work with all the countries regardless of their membership ... We recruit professionals from across the world ... (and) we have international competitive bidding (that) any company can participate," Jin said in a dialogue on the impact of China's policies on global economic development during the two-day Asian Financial Forum that concluded on Tuesday. According to Jin, China's idea to propose this new bank is "to supplement the efforts of existing institutions like the World Bank and ADB." On the relationship between AIIB and other Chinese-proposed initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative, Jin said that since lots of projects related to the initiative are for AIIB member countries, the bank is "duty-bound" to support these projects. However, he stressed that AIIB will consider financing the projects only if they are financially sustainable, environmentally friendly and acceptable to local people. "We are not going to do loss-making business ... We are not going to do an infrastructure project leaving a big footprint in the environment ... (and) we should bring benefit to the local people, not to create problems," Jin said. Myanmar police shot dead seven demonstrators, while 12 were injured in troubled Rakhine State, after a local gathering celebrating an ancient Buddhist Arakan kingdom turned violent. The demonstrators gathered late on Tuesday in Mrauk U township in the northern part of Rakhine to mark the end of the Arakan kingdom, the secretary of the Rakhine state government, Tin Maung Swe, told Reuters. The violent demonstration underscores the challenges facing Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi in a country where dozens of ethnic groups have been clamouring for autonomy since independence from Britain in 1947. Some 4,000 people surrounded a government building after the annual ceremony marking the demise of the Arakan kingdom over 200 years ago, Tin Maung Swe said. Organizers did not seek approval from local authorities for the gathering, he said. "The police used rubber bullets initially but the crowd didn't leave. Finally the security members had to shoot. The conflict happened when some people tried to seize guns from the police." The United Nations in Myanmar called on authorities to "investigate any disproportionate use of force or other illegal actions that may have occurred in relation to this incident." (Agencies) BEIJING， July 9 (Xinhua) -- China's meteorological authority issued an orange alert for heavy rain in the south and southwest of the country on Saturday. Heavy rain will hit the provinces of Fujian， Jiangxi， Shanxi， Sichuan and Zhejiang on Saturday and Sunday， with precipitation reaching 300 millimeters in some areas， the National Meteorological Center said on its website. The center advised people living in the affected areas to take precautions against possible floods and landslides， and those living in mountainous areas to move to safe places. China has a four-tier color-coded system for severe weather， with red being the most serious， followed by orange， yellow and blue. Since June 30， floods， hail and landslides have killed 164 people in China， mainly along the Yangtze River and its tributaries， and have left 26 missing， the Ministry of Civil Affairs said Friday morning. The disasters have also led to the collapse of 73，000 houses and forced the evacuation of 1.99 million people. More than 1 million people are in urgent need of basic living assistance. The Chinese Red Cross Foundation (CRCF) has sent 13，000 relief packages to areas devastated by widespread flooding. Of the packages， 8，000 have been sent to central Hubei Province， 3，000 to eastern Anhui Province， 1，000 to central Hunan Province and the rest to southwestern Guizhou Province. The packages comprise quilts， towels， mosquito coils， cooking oil and other supplies， which are being given out to affected families. It wouldn’t be wise to neglect home security in the face of evidently increasing crime rates throughout the country. Of course what security entails is slightly different depending on whether you’re in a bustling city or out in the sticks – in the case of the latter you might want some heavy-duty security gates. If you want to restrict outsiders’ access to your home, it doesn’t get much more physical and in-your-face than a large looming security gate. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a burglar, the neighbor’s dog or your mother-in-law. The benefits of a security gate guarding your front entrance are many. Many a security gate is designed so that you need to enter a pin number or code to open it. To help you see who might have come to visit or who might be loitering around, many security gates also come with an integrated doorphone with both video and audio communication. You will effectively be placing an extra layer between the big scary outside world and yourself, giving you extra safety and peace of mind. Most criminals are opportunists, and perpetrators of home invasions are no exception. Many security gate designs can even withstand a car being used as a battering ram. Even the least technical of people can use a secu.
