Welcome to the Beijing Hour, coming to you live from the Chinese Capital.
Coming up on our program this morning...

Top NewsGreeks Reject Bailout Terms in ReferendumVoters in Greece have overwhelmingly rejected the terms of a new international bailout in a referendum.
With almost all the votes counted, official figures show 61 percent of Greeks rejected the bailout offer.
The astonishingly strong victory by the 'No' camp has overturned opinion polls that had predicted an outcome too close to call.
Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras had campaigned for a "No" vote, saying the bailout terms are humiliating.
Addressing the nation after the referendum, Tsipras says the result shows that democracy cannot be blackmailed4.
But he also says Greece is ready to return to the negotiating table.
"Today, considering last week's very difficult circumstances, you made a very brave choice. However I am fully5 aware that the mandate6 here is not a mandate to break with Europe, but a mandate to strengthen our negotiation7 position to seek a viable8 solution."The "No" vote means Greece now risks financial and political isolation9 within the euro zone and a banking10 collapse11 if creditors12 refuse further aid.
But for millions of Greeks the outcome is an angry message to creditors.
"It's a clear answer by the Greek people. We can't take other measures. We can't take any more austerity. At some point, Europe must become a Europe of the people - for the people to be listened to and not only for the technocrats13 of Brussels and the bankers of the ECB (European Central Bank) to be heard. It's a clear message from the Greek people to all of Europe.""We are Greeks. We won. Justice won. The indignation of the people who have had such a bad time. We're looking to improve the future for our kids."The Greek government had argued that a "No" vote would be a boost for Greece to secure a better deal from creditors.
Greek officials have immediately said they would try to restart talks with European partners.
The leaders of Germany and France are calling for a Eurozone summit on Tuesday to discuss the Greek crisis.
Greece and its creditors had been locked in negotiations16 for months when the government unexpectedly called a referendum on the terms it was being offered.
Banks have been closed and capital controls have been in place since last Monday, after the European Central Bank declined to give Greece more emergency funding.
For more on the story, we are joined live by Mike Bastin, director of China Business Center based in London.
1 what consequences do you see stemming from this no vote?
2 what are the next steps for the Greek government and its international creditors?
3 How much do you think a Greek default will affect Chinese investment in the country?
BACK ANCHORThat is Mike Bastin, director of China Business Center based in London.
And stay on the line Mike, we will have you in a minute to talk about the stock market here in China.
Chinese stock market likely to bottom outAnchorA string of supportive measures came out during the weekend, in response to the slumping stock market in China.
The country's securities regulator has announced that China Securities Finance Co., Ltd. will raise funds through multiple channels and expand its business scale to help keep the stock market "stable."CSF will be supported by the central bank which will provide access to more liquidity17.
The CSF is a financial institution jointly18 founded by Shanghai Stock Exchange, Shenzhen Stock Exchange and China Securities Depository and Clearing Corporation Ltd..
Experts say this can be seen as a Chinese version of a "stabilization19 fund".
At the meantime,Central Huijin Investment, an arm of the Chinese government, has announced plans to launch a new series of investments into the Chinese A-share market through Mutual20 Funds.
The ETF's, or Exchange Traded Funds, group bonds, commodities, and a basket of other assets together.
Central Huijin hasn't said how much it plans to spend.
China's largest securities firms also announced this weekend plans to spend no less than 120 billion yuan, or around 20 billion US dollars, on blue chip ETFs to help dampen the recent downturn in the Chinese A-share market.
Nearly 30 Chinese companies, which had been poised21 to issue IPOs, have also announced they're delaying their initial public offerings.
The Chinese A-share market has been hit hard over the past month, with the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index tumbling nearly 30-percent over the past 3-weeks.
For more on this, we are now joined again with Mike Bastin, director of China Business Center based in London.
Questions:
1 What impact do you expect this latest round of support from the government to have on stock markets in China?
2 What else can the government do to stabilize23 the market? Do you think the government need to buy shares directly in order to stabilize the market?
3 Why is the 4500 points threshold so important for the A-share market that the authorities have moved to stabilize the market at this level?

China Issues Safety Notice to Tourists in TurkeyThe Chinese embassy in Turkey has warned tourists to be careful of anti-China protests after some Chinese tourists were attacked and disturbed in the country.
The embassy posted a notice on its website on Sunday, warning that Chinese tourists should not get close to or film protesters as there have been multiple demonstrations24 against the Chinese government across Turkey.
The notice suggests visitors "minimize to the greatest extent outside activities on one's own".
According to local media reports, a small group of protesters attacked a Chinese restaurant which is actually Turkish-owned.
Protesters also attacked a group of Korean visitors by mistake, who were later rescued by riot police.
Some Turkish media previously25 reported that China banned Muslims in Xinjiang from worship and fasting during the holy month of Ramadan.
The Chinese side has strongly refuted such reports.
10 tourist bodies to be sent back to South KoreaThe bodies of ten South Koreans killed in a traffic accident in northeastern China are going to be sent back to South Korea later on today.
Speeding and dangerous driving are being blamed for the accident last week in the city of Ji'an.
Ten South Korean tourists were killed on Thursday, along with the Chinese driver, when their tour bus plunged26 through a guard-rail and into a ravine.
Su Wenbo with Ji'an Police says they've determined27 the bus was traveling well above the 40-kilometer per hour speed limit when it hit a tight corner.
"We believe the bus was moving at a speed anywhere from 64 to 88 kilometers per hour when the accident happened, which is well above the speed limit. Our preliminary investigation28 show that the cause of the accident was speeding and improper29 steering30 by the driver."Meanwhile, the police also released the investigation result on the death of a South Korean official who fell off a hotel in Ji'an City early Sunday morning and died.
Choi Doo Yeong was one of the South Korean officials sent to Jilin to deal with the aftermath of the accident.
Guo Yuanqiang, deputy director of Public Security Bureau in Ji'an City, said the investigation has ruled out the possibility of murder and inferred that Choi had committed suicide.
"The surveillance video recording31 collected at the spot and the testimonies32 showed there were no other people in the room when Choi Doo-yeong fell off the building at 3 am. The investigation showed that there are many fingerprints33 of Choi on the open window. No damages unrelated to his fall were found on the body. So the possibility of homicide can be excluded. The investigation result is that Choi Doo-yeong jumped off the building and died."The reason of his suspected suicide remains34 unknown.
China urges Japan to face up to historyChina is urging Japan to face up to its history and take measures to uphold dignity of forced labor35 victims.
Chinese Ambassador to UN cultural organization UNESCO, Zhang Xiuqin, made the call after Japan's controversial "Meiji Industrial Revolution Sites" were inscribed36 into the World Heritage List.
The Meiji sites are a grouping of historic places that played an important part in the industrialization of Japan in the late 19th century.
Before the UNESCO decision was made, Japan was forced to admit that a large number of Koreans and others were brought against their will in the 1940s and forced to work under harsh conditions at some of the sites.
Japan also agreed to take measures to remember the victims, such as establishing information centers at the sites.
The forced labor history was initially37 ignored in Japan's nomination38 documents of the heritage sites.
First Public Interest Lawsuit39 Accepted in China's CourtAnchorA Chinese consumer rights group has just filed a public interest lawsuit against smartphone manufacturers Samsung and Oppo, over their practice of pre-installing apps on their smartphones.
A court in Shanghai has received the case which is the first of its kind on the Chinese mainland.
CRI's reporter Niu Honglin has more.
ReporterThe lawsuit, filed by Shanghai Consumer Council, alleges40 that smartphones sold by Samsung and Oppo come with "bloatware" that consumers can't remove, alleging41 the apps also steal cellular42 data.
Liu Chunquan, an official from China's E-commerce association, says the manufacturers' practice infringes43 the consumers' right-to-know.
"The manufacturers install apps on their smartphones without informing consumers. The buyers themselves may not want to install this software. Their right to know has been infringed44."Experts also argue that these companies make a load of money pre-installing Apps for which they receive payment from developers and publishers.
Ning Hai, secretary-general of the council, says it filed the lawsuit after investigating complaints from the public about unwanted apps.
The council tested 20 smartphones manufactured by different companies, including iPhone, Samsung, Huawei, Oppo and Xiaomi.
It found that all smartphones have pre-installed bloatware, with two smartphones manufactured by Samsung and Oppo carrying the most, 44 in Samsung and 71 in Oppo.
Ning says this bloatware is a headache for consumers.
"Some smartphones are pre-installed with four video apps. It is impossible for consumers to use all these apps with the same function at the same time."The council is seeking a ruling from the court, requiring smartphone manufacturers to clearly state on the product's packaging what apps have been installed, and give consumers instructions on how to remove unwanted software.
The case is also the first public interest lawsuit accepted by Chinese courts.
China passed a Consumer Rights and Interests Law last year, allowing the national consumer association and its provincial45 branches to initiate46 public interest lawsuits47 over consumer rights.

Temporary school opens in quake-hit zone in XinjiangAbout 100 quake-affected48 schoolchildren in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous49 Region are attending a newly-built tent school.
The makeshift school in Pishan County offers children a place of study, rest and play.
Arken Nuermaimaiti is a local villager.
"My grandson studies in the classroom. We also live here and can get free meals from the government."The 6.5 magnitude earthquake hit Pishan County in Hotan Prefecture in the morning on July 3.
The quake has killed at least three people and injured more than 70 others.
Iran Nuclear Deal "Possible" This Week: KerryUS Secretary of State John Kerry says an agreement on Iran's nuclear program is possible this week if Tehran makes the "hard choices" necessary.
At the same time, Kerry is warning the United States remains ready to walk away from the negotiations.
"Over the past few days, we have in fact made genuine progress. But I want to be absolutely clear with everybody. We are not yet where we need to be on several of the most difficult issues. And the truth is, that while I completely agree with (Iranian) Foreign Minister (Mohammad Javad) Zarif that we have never been closer, at this point this negotiation could go either way."Negotiators from Iran and world powers are meeting in Vienna to try to meet a Tuesday deadline for reaching a deal that would suspend Iran's most sensitive nuclear work in exchange for sanctions relief.
The deadline was extended from June 30th as they try to address such sticking points as how sanctions are lifted and the amount of nuclear capability51 Iran is allowed to keep.
European Union Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini is also urging Iran to seize the chance for a deal.
"I would say that from tomorrow onwards, the next couple of days we are here to check and assess if a deal can be closed. And my message today is that if a deal can be closed it's now. It's not time, the issue is political decisions that need to be taken now."Foreign ministers from Britain, China, France, Germany and Russia are arriving in Vienna to make a push to meet Tuesday's deadline for a final agreement to end the 12-year-old dispute.
Some diplomats52 have said the talks could slip to Thursday, the date by which US President Barack Obama's administration must submit a deal to Congress in order to get an expedited, 30-day review.
Republicans in the US Congress have been accusing the Obama administration of making too many concessions53 at the talks.
Tunisia announces state of emergencyTunisian President Beji Essebsi has declared a state-of-emergency in his country.
Essebsi, in declaring the state-of-emergency, is describing Tunisia as being in a "in a state of war," leaving many in Tunisia wondering what that's going to mean for their daily lives.
"I think that emergency state duration is limited and will last for a short period of time; it is justified55 by the terrorist attack in Sousse. There were many victims, tourism was affected and Tunisian economy was shaken by this, and we are all against this chaos56 in Tunisia and in the Arab countries.""I don't think that it will dramatically change... reduce the risks that are playing now. I'm not so much in favour of expressing state of emergency."Tunisian authorities are already moving to try to crack down on Islamist factions57 in the predominantly-secular country, including shutting down around 80 mosques58 suspected of recruiting young Tunisians into militant acts.
Authorities believe last week's attack is going to cost the country around 500-million US dollars in lost tourism revenues.
London bombings effect on UK security 10 years onAnchorTuesday marks the 10th anniversary of the so-called 7/7 bombings in London.
AS CRI's Sophie Williams reports, a decade later, UK officials are still working to try to ensure future attacks are prevented.
ReporterSome ten years have passed since four suicide bombers60 struck the heart of central London during the morning rush hour on July 7th, 2005.
A total of 52 people were killed and hundreds more injured.
From that day on, Britain's security landscape changed.
On June 30th of this year, London played host to its largest ever security exercise which saw armed police responding to 'maurauding' gunmen.
This exercise came just days after 30 British nationals were gunned down at a Tunisian beach resort.
Britain's security threat level currently stands at severe, suggesting authorities believe an attack is highly likely.
This has put UK emergency services into high-scale preparations.
She says the UK capital needs to be ready to handle an attack.
"We have looked at events across and around the world since 7/7 and have said to ourselves, 'Would we be ready if there was that style of attack, whether it be France or Tunisia or wherever it may be, would we be ready for that style of attack here in London?"Over the past decade, the threat from terrorists has changed somewhat.
The attacks during 7/7 were directed at a distance from Afghanistan and Pakistan by al-Qaeda.
But today, Britain is facing the threat of home-grown terrorism, particularly from those who have sympathies toward the Islamic State.
Doctor Hugo Rosemont is the Assistant Director of the Centre for Defence Studies at the Department for War Studies at King's College London.
He says authorities need to be reaching out to young members of the UK's growing minority populations if they want to help prevent attacks.
"I think one of the things that UK government and other governments also need to do is reach out outside of government more, working with communities and others, funding that as appropriate to make sure that these ideas don't take root among particularly younger members of society who may feel that they have a motivation or a cause to do this."For the family of Miriam Hyman, educating young people and preventing further attacks has become their main goal.
Miriam was killed during the attacks on London when a suicide bomber59 detonated an explosive on board a bus in Tavistock square.
Her mother and sister are trying to introduce lesson plans about the July 7th bombings into schools, as many of the younger children may never have heard of the attacks.
Miriam's mother Mavis says with the current threat from the Islamic State, it's important to get into schools as early as possible to educate students.
"They really are pumping messages of hatred64, they are pumping messages of negativity, and what we are doing by getting in as early as possible to countermand65 this,"On Tuesday, the tenth anniversary, a memorial service will be held at St Paul's Cathedral, followed by a minute's silence across the whole of London's transport network.

Beijing and Shanghai Benefit Overseas Tourists with Tax RefundAnchorStarting from the beginning of this month, Beijing and Shanghai began offering tax refunds86 on purchases made by overseas visitors, in a bid to bolster87 tourism and sales.
Reporter:
86 stores in Beijing and 27 in Shanghai have qualified89 for the tax refund85 program, which covers all kinds of goods popular with overseas travelers, such as souvenirs, silk, porcelain90, antique and traditional Chinese medicine products as well as some outlets91.
Zhao Yanming is the deputy director of Beijing Municipal Finance Bureau. He explains, the minimum purchase to obtain a tax refund is 500 yuan at a single store in one day.
"Overseas travelers refer to foreigners and residents from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, who continuously stay in the Chinese mainland for no more than 183 days. The time period between leaving date and purchasing date should not exceed 90 days. When they leave the Chinese mainland, they can claim 11% refund, of which they can receive 9%, and the other 2% is the commission charge to those refund agencies."Now, overseas visitors can claim tax refund at Beijing Capital International Airport, as well as Shanghai airports at both Pudong and Hongqiao when they leave China.
Gao Yanjun from Beijing capital international airport customs explains the procedure for claiming the tax refund.
"Travelers should go to check in their flights first. Then they should take the goods with their luggage to the Customs for application and verification, together with the refund application form and sales invoice92 from tax free store. After verification, the Customs will sign and stamp on the application form and help to put the luggage into the Sorting System, saving the travellers time to go back to the check in counter again."Finally, overseas visitors should deliver the application form with custom's signature and stamp to the tax refund agencies to claim their money.
Yuan Baiwei from Shanghai Municipal Finance Bureau elaborates:
"The currency of tax refund is RMB. The payment method will be either cash or bank transfer. Overseas travelers can choose one of the two payment methods, if the tax refund amount is less than 10 thousand yuan. If the refund amount is over 10 thousand yuan, it must be done by bank transfer."Next, the two cities will explore the expansion of the tax refund program to more stores and offer processing of refunds outside of the airports.
Additionally, Beijing, which added a 72-hour visa-free policy to boost tourism, plans to introduce shopping-tailored tourism routes for overseas visitors.

Fantasy Film-"Monster Hunt" Premiers105 in BeijingChinese fantasy movie-"Monster Hunt" has held a premiere in Beijing.
Directed by Xu Chengyi, it tells a story of a young man who conceived a little monster king by mistake. He went through all kinds of difficulties to protect the little monster from other evils' hands.
The movie stars actor Jing Boran and actress Bai Baihe.
Jing Boran's role was originally played by actor kai Ko.
But the latter was blacklisted due to a drug conviction and most of the movie was reshot.
The movie is set to hit theaters on July 16.
Adventure movie "Jurassic World" continues to dominate North American box officeUS sci-fi adventure film "Jurassic World" has topped the North American box office for the fourth straight week, outperforming "Inside Out" and two other newly released movies -- "Terminator Genisys" and "Magic Mike XXL".
The 3D dinosaur106 film was on track to sell some 31 million U.S. dollars in tickets this weekend on its way soaring to over 558 million dollars in ticket sales in North America.
That makes it the fifth-biggest blockbuster in Hollywood history.
"Jurassic World" has grossed around 1.4 billion dollars worldwide.
Disney/Pixar's "Inside Out" still ranks in second place with an estimated 30 million dollars in ticket revenue this weekend, for a three-week North American tally107 of over 246 million dollars.
"Terminator Genisys," starring the former California governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, stands in third place with an estimated 29 million dollars in tickets sales this weekend.
Dave Grohl performs a Foo Fighters show on a custom, light-up throneRock musician Dave Grohl has performed in Washington, D.C. to kick off the Foo Fighters' North American summer tour, with a broken leg and an enormous purple cast.
He just had to do the entire show while sitting — in a custom-made, light up throne.
He broke his leg last month at a show in Sweden, but he finished his set before heading to the hospital.
Grohl took some time in the middle of the show to tell the story of how he broke his leg.
He told the crowd he wanted to miss as few shows as possible, so while he was still in the hospital (and full of pain medication), he drew up a sketch108 of a custom throne that would still allow him to perform.
That’s it for this edition of the Beijing Hour.
