Top NewsChinese premier arrives in Peru for official visitAnchor:
Chinese Premier Li Keqiang has arrived in the Peruvian capital of Lima for an official visit.
Li Keqiang is due to meet with Peruvian President Ollanta Humala later on today, and to sit down with Chinese business people in the South American country.
Reporter:
The diversification6 of bilateral7 economic ties between the two countries will be high on the premier's agenda.
China's trade volume with Peru reached 14.32 billion U.S. dollars in 2014, with a bilateral free trade pact8 having been implemented9 for five years.
China's investment in Peru had also reached 14 billion dollars by the end of 2014.
"As to the relationship between China and Peru, there are three important elements. First, the economies are complementary. The free-trade agreement between China and Peru makes China the most important trade partner of Peru ahead of Europe and America. Second is technological12 interactions. The agreements signed recently have proved this point. And finally, the political consensus13 between us. Both of us have joined APEC and other groups in the Asia-pacific region. "During the Premier's visit to Brazil, he and the Brazilian leader also agreed to begin studying the feasibility of a railway, which connects the Brazilian Atlantic coast with the Peruvian Pacific coast.
The project aims to improve regional connectivity, as well as to boost economic and trade cooperation between China and Latin America, including with Peru.
Huang Huimin, the Chinese ambassador to Peru, says that besides this, there's still huge potential for the two countries to cooperate in trade and economic development.
"Our friends show great interest in China's 'one belt and one road initiative'. As a pacific gateway14, Peru has kept a close relationship with China and other countries around the Pacific Ocean. Hopefully we can build a community of interests and seek development for both sides through cooperation."During Premier Li Keqiang's stay in Peru, he is also due to attend cultural exchanges activities with Peruvian authorities.
Peru is the third leg of the Chinese premier's four-nation tour to Latin America after Brazil and Colombia. He will also visit Chile.

China and Colombia to improve economic tiesAnchor:
China and Colombia have agreed to seek cooperation in a host of areas including production capacity, equipment manufacturing and infrastructure construction to boost economic ties.
The agreement came during Chinese Premier Li Keqiang's visit to Colombia.
CRI's Guo Yan reports.
Reporter:
Premier Li was welcomed by the Colombian President at the Narino Presidential Palace.
The visit marks the highest ranking visit by a Chinese authority to Colombia since the two countries established diplomatic ties in 1980.
Li and Santos signed accords pledging cooperation regarding infrastructure, education and agriculture, among other areas.
Premier Li says that Colombia is in the process of promoting peace in the country and this creates favourable16 conditions for investing in new infrastructure.
"China has rich experience and advantageous17 production capacity in infrastructure construction and equipment manufacturing. We stand ready to set up plants in Colombia to produce iron and steel, construction materials and engineering equipment according to the needs of the Colombian side."Li added that bilateral cooperation is expected to lower the cost of production and provide jobs for local communities.
Bilateral trade between the two countries has exceeded 17 billion US dollars as China has become Colombia's second largest trading partner. President Juan Manuel Santos stresses the feasibility of further improving the bilateral trade.
"Today, the trade volume between the two countries is fifteen times higher than that of a decade ago. The bilateral trade volume reached 17billion US dollars last year and there is still a huge potential for growth in terms of trade volume. So we initiated18 research on the feasibility of bilateral free trade agreement to see the possibility of strengthening economic ties between the two countries. "He says cooperation with China will be conducive19 to advancing the reconstruction20 and social-economic development of his once war-plagued country.
Premier Li says the announcement by Santos sends a positive signal to the business sector21 on both sides.
"President Santos has announced that we're going to start negotiations23 on the feasibility of signing a free trade agreement between China and Colombia. I believe this can send a strong positive signal to the business sector from both countries. That is to say that we could experience great development in bilateral commercial trade."The two leaders also agreed to give 200 Colombians scholarships to study in China, among other plans to boost the bilateral relationship.

Literary circle has high expectation on Sino-Colombian Cultural ExchangesAnchor:
Before concluding his Colombian visit, the Chinese premier has also taken time to attend a seminar on people-to-people exchanges between China and Latin America, together with Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos.
Literary representatives at the seminar spoke24 highly of the role that literature has played in promoting bilateral cultural ties.
CRI's Sophie Williams reports.
Reporter:
Tie Ning is the chairperson of the China Writers Association.
She says as early as in the 1980s, many Chinese people, especially in literary circles, have learned about Latin American countries thanks to the popularity of Colombian writer Gabriel García Márquez's works.
"Right after Gabriel Garcia Marquez was honored with a Nobel Prize in 1982, the translated work of his classic novel 'One Hundred Years of Solitude25' flooded Chinese market. It exerted significant influence on both Chinese ordinary readers and Chinese writers. At a time when China was opening its doors to the outside world, Chinese literary circles and Chinese writers were eager to get the literary essence of other countries, including Latin America."Chinese writer Mo Yan, a Nobel literature laureate in 2012, says he was also one of those writers influenced by the magic realism of Marquez's works.
"As a writer, I'll talk about the inspirations I got from reading Latin American literature, and how these ideas influenced me in the creation of my own literature."Recent years have seen a growing number of Chinese literary works translated into many foreign languages, in addition to China's increasing influence in the literary field across the world.
Colombian writer Roberto Burgos Cantor says good literary works can go beyond borders.
"I've read Mo Yan's books. I have also read the selections of some young Chinese writers' works. I think they are blending well into the world literary circle. Influential26 works have fascinating plots. For example, many people might have not read Don Quijote or One Hundred Years of Solitude. But almost everyone in the world knows that one book has the story of a crazy old man fighting with a windmill and the other has the frequent appearance of yellow butterflies. "However, only a handful of Colombian writers say they know about Chinese literature.
Tie Ning says this is a reason why the two countries need to deepen literary exchanges:
"China's economic rise is catching27 the eyes of the world. I think its culture and literature should also be open to the outside world. But the Latin American literary circle knows little about Chinese literature. So the two sides need to further exchanges. Of course, there exist cultural differences. It is precisely28 these differences that call for exchanges."Besides the exchanges in literature, Chinese language learning programs are also expanding rapidly in Colombia and many young Colombians are studying Chinese in the country's Confucius Institutes.

Chief negotiators' meeting on establishing AIIB concludes in SingaporeAnchor:
The founding members of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank have concluded another round of talks in Singapore.
The Articles of Agreement, which guideline the work of the bank, were finalized29 during the meeting and are expected to be signed in the coming month.
CRI's Min Rui reports.
Reporter:
This is the fifth round of the Chief negotiator's meeting since the signing of the memorandum30 on establishing the AIIB last October in Beijing.
57 prospective31 founding member countries attended the meeting.
After three days of negotiation22, the Articles of Agreement were finalized.
China's vice32 minister of finance and permanent chair of the Chief Negotiators' Meeting Shi Yaobin says the agreement is expected to be signed by the end of June in Beijing.
"Under the construction plan and schedule of the AIIB, the Articles of Agreement of the bank are expected to be signed by all sides by the end of June in Beijing. After signing and approval, the bank will be founded by the end of this year and be operational as soon as possible."The chief negotiators at the meeting also discussed the draft Environmental and Social Framework and draft Procurement33 Policy framework.
According to Shi, GDP will be a key indicator34 in deciding upon the amount of capital contributed by the bank's founding members.
"We discussed the AIIB charter during the meeting. According to the charter, a planned authorized35 capital of AIIB is 100 billion dollars will be divided among the founding members, and the contribution ratio of the countries in the region will depend on the proportion of their GDP as compared with the whole of the region."The comments come on the heels of earlier media reports that say the AIIB will defer36 to the practice of the International Monetary37 Fund, that is, allocation will be based on GDP and capital.
Research done by the Korea Institute for International Economic Policy shows that China will be the largest shareholder38 in the AIIB, with nearly 31 percent of the contribution ratio.
India is in second place with a 10 percent contribution ratio, followed by Indonesia 4 percent.

Haicang accelerates cross-straits exchanges and cooperation through innovation and reform in FTZAnchor:
As a key part of the Fujian Pilot Free Trade Zone, the Haicang Area has been trying to attract investment from Taiwan through innovative69 reforms.
CRI's Wang Wei reports.
Reporter:
Lin Wei is a researcher from Xiamen's Haicang Free Trade Port Zone, one of China's most open and best-equipped special customs supervision70 areas.
He says they are pushing forward with a special project for cross-straits cooperation.
"Now, we are planning and building up a center for young people from each side to start their own businesses. Currently, our country is also encouraging innovation. So combining with the current situation of cross-straits' cooperation here, as far as I know in the last two years many young people from Taiwan have come to Xiamen to start companies. So we want to establish a center to facilitate this."In 1989, the State Council approved Haicang to be the first area on the mainland for Taiwan investment, and many businesses from the Island now operate in that special zone.
Xie Jine is the manager in charge of attracting investment to the Haicang Free Trade Port Zone.
"Most of the Taiwan companies in Haicang are with traditional industries, such as manufacturing and processing. With the establishment of the FTZ, Xiamen and these companies badly needed to upgrade and adjust industry structures. Our innovative programs will meet those companies' needs and can help them with the restructuring."According to Xie, there are many other programs to collaborate71 with Taiwan including ones involving Big Data, Mobile Internet, and e-commerce.
Also, the Port Zone is pushing for swift and smooth customs clearance72 and encouraging businesses related to import and export, bonded73 logistics, value-added processing and service outsourcing.
"As for my information, Haicang now is also focusing on social governance aspects, like people to people exchanges. The families of workers at Taiwan companies have the opportunity to play a role in community governance, marking an in-depth integration75 and cooperation. People from across the straits share the same historical background and have blood connections. Through these exchanges, they can feel a sense of belonging."Haicang was the first area in the country to establish a hospital with investment exclusively from Taiwan. In the near future, a cross-straits health cooperation plan will be set up to attract more investment.

U.S.-Cuba talks end without deal, more talks to followThe United States and Cuba have concluded their two-day talks in Washington without a deal on reopening embassies.
The two sides have agreed to further meetings in the coming weeks.
Roberta Jacobson, the chief U.S. negotiator with Cuba, says the two countries are much closer to reestablishing relations and reopening embassies.
"This round of talks was highly productive. We will persist, inspired by the conviction that engagement and non-isolation are the keys to moving forward."Josefina Vidal, director of U.S. affairs at the Cuban Foreign Ministry, says both delegations77 agreed to continue the exchange on aspects related to the functioning of diplomatic missions.

Particular points of interest were freer movement for diplomats81 and access to the U.S. embassy by Cuban citizens.
U.S. diplomats are not allowed to leave Cuba's capital of Havana without permission until now, while their Cuban counterparts are limited to Washington D.C. and New York.
Both sides have declined to discuss details about the lingering differences between them.

Those emails were sent and received in the aftermath of the attacks three years ago on an American diplomatic facility in Benghazi, Libya, which killed four Americans.
Clinton had asked for an earlier release of those emails.
"In fact, the State Department has the vast majority of those anyway because they went to what are called .gov accounts. I'm aware that the FBI has asked that a portion of one email be held back. That happens in the process of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) responses. But that doesn't change the fact that all of the information in the emails was handled appropriately."The nearly 300 emails are part of the 30,000 that Clinton turned over to the State Department from her private account.

China's cabinet has unveiled the first 10-year action plan designed to transform the country's manufacturing industry. A new investment company has been established to help Chinese companies go global. And entertainment giant Disney has opened its biggest retail96 store in Shanghai.
Let's catch all of that and more with CRI's Wenjie.
Reporter:
Chinese Premier Li Keqiang started his four-nation Latin America tour on Monday.
During his stay in Brazil, the Chinese and Brazilian governments signed a total of 35 agreements.
The deals center around trade, finance, energy, mining, aviation and an upgrade of Brazil's dilapidated infrastructure.
They range from the purchase of passenger jets made by Brazilian aircraft maker97 Embraer to the lifting of an import ban on Brazilian beef.
One highlight is an agreement to start feasibility studies on a railroad,which would cross the Andes and link Brazil's Atlantic coast to Pacific ports in Peru.
As part of a China-Brazil business summit, Li Keqiang also announced the establishment of a 30-billion-U.S.-dollar fund for promoting China-Latin America cooperation in production capacity and equipment manufacturing.
Industrial capacity refers to the upgrading of existing industrial facilities and equipment to make them more efficient.
Xu Shicheng, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that Premier Li's visit will further promote the deepening of bilateral economic and trade cooperation.
"China's economy is growing slower; the requirement for Latin America's iron ore and oil is dropping. They have to improve the added value on their primary products before exporting. We'll cooperate with the region through industrial capacity in order to improve their manufacturing production level."China's State Council on Tuesday unveiled a national plan, dubbed98 "Made in China 2025", focusing on promoting manufacturing.
The plan is based on a national research project jointly conducted by the Chinese Academy of Engineering and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, that began in 2013.
Miao Wei, Minister of Industry and Information Technology says the plan is designed to transform China from a manufacturing giant into a world manufacturing power.
"Industrialization and an emphasis on information in logistics will be deeply integrated to promote the development of the whole manufacturing industry, which was proposed at the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. This will be a task we must fulfill52 in implementing99 the Made-in-China 2025 Plan. It is also a new highland100 that we must conquer."The plan defines ten key areas where breakthroughs should be made, including new information technology, digital controlled tools and robotics.
Miao Wei particularly stressed the importance of Internet technologies.
"The best and biggest opportunity lies in the application of Internet technology in manufacturing. It will become the biggest catalyst101 and engine to accelerate this round of development. It will promote the manufacturing from being electrification-based directly to being intelligence-based."China's top economic regulator on Monday approved the construction of 6 new railway projects worth some 250 billion yuan, or around 40-billion U.S. dollars.
The National Development and Reform Commission or NDRC says the projects include four new high-speed lines in Shandong and Jiangsu, and Liaoning.
Luo Guosan, deputy director of the NDRC's investment department, says the move is an addition to the central government's current infrastructure construction plan.
"We will continuously improve the infrastructure construction according to the actual needs and bring some qualified102 projects into the plan. NDRC has been working with relevant government departments, local authorities and enterprises recently."A pair of rail lines in the cities of Chengdu and Nanning are also part of the new plan.
On Wednesday, China's top economic regulator announced that the country will provide various kinds of financial support to help domestic companies go global.
Gu Dawei with the National Development and Reform Commission says there will be a breakthrough in financial support for companies looking to globalize.
"The guideline specifies103 that companies can mortgage offshore104 assets and ask for loans inside the country. It is a major breakthrough. All Chinese financial institutions should speed up their pace of globalization, setting up branches abroad, and providing financial services to facilitate Chinese companies going global."At the same time, the NDRC also announced that a new investment arm of the China Investment Corporation has been established.
The new subsidiary of China's sovereign wealth fund has been given a 5-billion US dollar seed.
China vowed107 on Wednesday to invest hundreds of billions of yuan in the coming years to increase Internet speed and expand broadband access in rural regions.
The country plans to spend more than 430 billion yuan or some 70 billion U.S. dollars this year and more than 700 billion yuan total in 2016 and 2017 on Internet infrastructure.
China will also accelerate building of high-speed broadband networks and improve Internet access in more than 14,000 villages by the end of 2015.
By the end of 2017, the average cable broadband speed for users in major cities will be increased to 30 megabytes per second, more than triple the current speed, while that in smaller cities will be upgraded to 20 megabytes per second.
The State Council also vowed to expand the 4G network to cover the whole of the country by the end of 2017.
On the corporate108 front,Chinese train makers109 CSR and CNR started swapping111 stocks on Wednesday as the former had been delisted from both the Shanghai Stock Exchange on the Chinese mainland and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
It is a big step forward in their long-awaited merger.
After the stock swap, a new company called CRRC Corporation will be formed.
The combined company will inherit all assets, liabilities, business, staff, contracts, certificates and all other rights and obligations of the two companies.
The incorporated company will focus on overseas industrial distribution and management in an effort to build a promising112 global influence.

The Walt Disney Company opened its biggest ever retail store, in Shanghai on Wednesday.
The store in the heart of Shanghai is 860-square meters in size and has an outdoor space of some 5,000 square meters.
Paul Candland, president of Disney's Asia-Division, says the new store is somewhat exclusive to the Chinese market.
"Actually, I would be happy to walk you around the store, so you see some of our new exclusive China products. But there are many products here in the store that are exclusive to China, 90 percent of the merchandise here is only available in this store".
