raising the natural gas prices” after the government asked users to switch from coal

GENEVA AQ6239-001 Homme Nike Air Max 270 Camo Heel Noir , March 15 (Xinhua) -- Syrian opposition delegate Bassma Kodmani told press on Tuesday following a meeting with UN Special Envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura that the issue of humanitarian aid and the release of detainees needed to be addressed so that talks could progress in earnest.


"We had a one-hour or so meeting with de Mistura, our full delegation was present. This was a constructive meeting," said Kodmani.


Among the main concerns raised by the Saudi-backed High Negotiations Committee (HNC), the umbrella group for Syrian opposition factions, was the delivery of aid to both the cities of Darayya and Al-Waer.


She also mentioned the release of prisoners AH8050-005 Homme Nike Air Max 270 Triple Noir , a point brought up by de Mistura who said no outcome had emerged on this sensitive topic.


"We have no results at all on that issue. This is a major confidence-building measure, it is an obligation for the regime to implement it. It is not up for negotiations. We are waiting to see a mechanism that will start addressing effectively the issue of detainees," Kodmani iterated.


"It is not an issue that can be treated today, in a week, a month or six months Homme Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit Rouge Pulse , given that we estimate that there are daily executions of some 50 detainees in the different prisons of Syria," she added.


The delegate also mentioned that the HNC had handed a document to de Mistura outlining a set of general principles which she hoped would guide the transitional process.


"The vision that the HNC has put forward is a starting point for a discussion that we would like to take into more detail in the following sessions that we will have."


The HNC's counterpart, the Syrian government delegation headed by Bashar al-Jafaari, had also submitted a document outlining the basic elements for a political solution to the special envoy on March 14, the first day of the latest round of talks seeking to broker a political solution for the country at war since 2011.


De Mistura is scheduled to meet again with the Syrian government delegation on March 16 in the morning.


China’s top economic planner has punished four heating companies for violating pricing rules as it urged local governments to protect public rights amid rising demand in winter.


The National Development and Reform Commission found the heating companies in Heilongjiang Homme Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit Casual Work Bleu , Zhejiang, Sichuan and Shandong provinces breached pricing rules in an investigation which started on December 19, the NDRC said yesterday.


The Heilongjiang company had imposed additional charges of 361,200 yuan (US$55,205) on users when they joined the heating network Homme Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit Laser Orange , while the firms in the other three provinces had arbitrarily demanded higher heating prices and made a profit of over 718,100 yuan.


All the firms have been asked to pay back the illegal income to the users or to hand in it to the local governments. The Heilongjiang firm was also fined 541,900 yuan.


China aims to ensure public rights by monitoring heating prices and supplies, and ordering local governments to beef up investigation into pricing violations.


China’s heating demand has been surging during winter, “especially raising the natural gas prices” after the government asked users to switch from coal to gas Homme Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit Noir Blanche , the commission said.


The NDRC has also started an antitrust investigation on December 20 in 17 natural gas heating companies.


BEIJING, Dec. 28 (Xinhua) -- China's Ministry of Finance (MOF) said Thursday it will exempt foreign companies from paying provisional withholding income tax on profits they re-invest in the country.


The news comes as the Chinese government is moving to attract foreign investors after a host of countries unveiled similar measures to lure foreign and domestic investment.


Foreign companies play an increasingly important role in boosting China's economy and promoting industrial and technological upgrades. The new policy will provide a better environment for foreign companies in the long-run, encourage them to continuously expand investment in China and boost win-win cooperation, the MOF said on its website.


The exemption is effective from January 1, 2017 Homme Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit Racer Bleu Total Rouge , meaning taxes paid this year will be refunded.


Foreign companies must meet a string of conditions to be eligible for the exemption, including direct investment into sectors encouraged by the Chinese government, and investment returns must be transferred directly to invested companies.


Countries are competing to attract foreign investment with a mixture of incentives including tax cuts and easier market access.


Spokesman of China's Ministry of Commerce (MOC) Gao Feng said earlier this month that China will remain a popular destination for foreign investment, due to economic stability, market potential and further opening up.


"Tax policy is an important factor in investment decisions Homme Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit Noir God , but it is not necessarily a decisive one," he said. "Economic stability, market potential and business environment of the target country are also important factors for investors to consider."


China implemented a revised foreign investment catalogue earlier this year, which relaxed restrictions on foreign investment in a number of industries.


Next year, a negative list approach to market entry Nike Air Max 2018 Homme Pas Cher , which states the sectors and businesses that are off limits to foreign investment, will be expanded nationwide.


Foreign direct investment (FDI) into the Chinese mainland rose 9.8 percent year on year to reach 803.62 billion yuan (around 122 billion U.S. dollars) in the first 11 months, faster than the 1.9-percent year-on-year increase registered in the first 10 months, according to data from the MOC.
