Demo against Bush war

President Bush can expect a warm welcome from his old friend, the charismatic Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and Pope Benedict XVI during his visit to Rome. This is not what has been found in the streets, however, where anti-Bush sentiment on the war in Iraq remains.

Anti-war activists and hundreds of other demonstrators marched through the Italian capital on Wednesday that Bush has arrived for a visit that was to include meetings on Thursday with Berlusconi and the pope on Friday.

The president, as usual, held on his business. His encountered few signs of protest on his motorcade on the road Thursday.

At the elegant Villa Aurelia hill, part of the American Academy in Rome, Bush met with Italian entrepreneurs and encouraged young people to come to "the first truth about America." He disputed that ' he called misinformation and propaganda on the USA.

"We are a compassionate, open cares about people ... We love the entrepreneurial spirit, "said Bush.

Security is extremely tight for Bush two-day stay in Rome. The commercial flights were banned over the city. Dozens of buses and trams were diverted. Thousands of police were deployed as part of a plan to monitor new protests if Wednesday, March drew far fewer protesters than previous visits by Bush.

Slovenia and Germany, the first two stops on the trip of Bush, were devoid of demonstrators. This is proof that the transatlantic relations on the fractured US-led invasion in Iraq, are on the repair, as European leaders have moved beyond their anger about the war. The Rome protests are proof that the Italian public still opposes the Bush administration.

Unlike other European leaders, like former German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder and former french President Jacques Chirac, Berlusconi supported Bush on Iraq from the outset. The 71 years of media magnate defied domestic opposition and sent about 3000 troops in Iraq after the fall of Iraqi president Saddam Hussein.

These troops came home, and Berlusconi, who was recently elected to his third shift in power since 1994, has pledged not to send any return.

More than 2000 Italian troops, however, are deployed under the NATO-led mission in Afghanistan.

Italy, with Germany, France and Spain, have limited their troops to less dangerous areas in northern Afghanistan. This has caused a break because other NATO members are deployed in the most violent regions of the nation. The Italian government is currently reviewing the restrictions and Berlusconi's office said the prime minister talk to Bush about this during their meeting.

Bush's wife, first lady Laura Bush on Wednesday pledged $ 10.2 billion on behalf of the USA in the reconstruction of Afghanistan. She spoke at an international donors conference in Paris, where the president himself will be headed on Friday.

Berlusconi and Bush were also asked to consider the interests of Italy to join with the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council and Germany who are a diplomatic push to get Iran to abandon what the West sees as an effort to develop nuclear weapons. It may seem unusual for Italy, which has recently overtaken Germany as Iran's largest trading partner.

But for Italy show strong opposition to Iran suspected nuclear ambitions, Berlusconi and his government has refused to meet with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who was in Rome for a UN-sponsored Food Summit.

Bush will meet with the pope on Friday before returning to Paris to continue his European tour farewell. It will be Bush's third meeting with Benedict. The two last met in April at the White House in Washington.

The suspend was suspended

The Iraq qualification World Cup against Australia will go ahead as planned this weekend after FIFA decided to temporarily lift their suspension.

The match was put in doubt after FIFA announced on Monday it was suspending the champions of Asia that prevailed in their response to the government's decision to dissolve their National Olympic Committee.

However, FIFA has decided to revoke the ban after the Iraqi government has provided written assurances that it had not dissolved the Iraq Football Association (IFA).

FIFA issued a statement confirming on Thursday, he lifted the ban, to Sunday World Cup qualifier to proceed warned Baghdad but that only provisional and conditions attached.

FIFA said it still had concerns about the Iraqi government tries to control its national federations and requested a delegation of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) and the IFA to join him in Zurich to discuss these questions.

"This letter is a positive step, but it was not entirely satisfy all the concerns of FIFA on governmental attempts to control the federations of Iraq and the Iraq National Olympic Committee," FIFA statement.

AFC President Mohamed Bin Hammam, who led the push to suspend Iraq as part of its firm stance against political interference in sport, welcomed the Iraqi government to the letter but said it also necessary to reverse its decision to dissolve the country's National Olympic Committee.

Malaysia Forest

Press Statement: A new hydropower project in the Limbang river in the east Malaysian state of Sarawak on the island of Borneo, would be a threat to the livelihood of several municipalities rain forest, when it comes to the future. According to local sources, surveying work for a planned dam started in April 2008, without the affected indigenous population properly.

A new hydropower project in the Limbang river in the east Malaysian state of Sarawak on the island of Borneo, would be a threat to the livelihood of several municipalities rain forest, when it comes to the future.

According to local sources, surveying work for a planned dam started in April 2008, without the affected indigenous population properly.

Several teams of inspectors have begun assessing the geology and hydrology of the Upper Limbang and investigate the relocation of several hundred Penan and Kelabit, live on the premises are affected by the proposed dam. While the Kelabit have a long tradition of agriculture in the region, the Penan have recently settled hunter-collector, still depend to a large extent in the rain forest for their livelihood.

An apparent attempt at social engineering. This took the form of acquisitions of local opinion on the proposed dam by the distribution of questionnaires to locals. But what the official dam project really is still not effectively disclosed. Maps, in the area show three different locations proposed dam, and rumors are widespread that one of the schemes would have a dam 500 meters high and thus would submerge the Kelabit village Long Napir and at least three Penan villages.

Mutang Urud, a Kelabit rainforest lawyer from Long Napir, said: "This dam project seems to be the last attack on our forests and our life base. It would not only erase our cultural landscape, but also the cultural memory of our younger generation."

While most of primeval rain forests in the upper town Limbang were logged in, the Limbang Valley still secondary forests with a very high biodiversity.

In the 1980s and early 1990s, the upper Limbang Penan and Kelabit staged a series of blockades against the loggers, but not prevent them from interfering in their country.

Tibet

China has said that the U.S. would be "major progress" in the field of human rights, but it should be no double standards or any interference in its internal affairs through the use of the subject.

At the fourth US-China dialogue on human rights, Beijing said China was fully "confident" about human rights and it would be "even greater progress" and that the dispute between the two nations on the issue should be resolved in a constructive manner "

The dialogue on human rights had been suspended earlier in the year 2002, following the U.S. criticism of China's record at the UN.

The two countries had started, human rights dialogue after the pro-democracy protest was crushed in Tinanmen Square in Beijing in 1989.

The U.S. envoy and head of the team, David Krammer, described their talks included the situation in Tibet and the freedom of the media and religion as "constructive and productive" and said: "We are encouraged by the resumption of dialogue and look forward to the continuation.

Olympics Polution

Pollutant levels in Beijing click on the top of the scale on Tuesday, just 73 days before the Olympic games, a government warning for residents with respiratory problems to stay indoors.

"Sensible people should avoid, be outdoors," the Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau said on its website, announcing that the air quality was in "dangerous" level five, the worst note.

The major pollutants has been suspended particles, which is usually attributed to the burning of coal and vehicle exhausts.

But the bureau said this time experts blamed poor air quality in the annual spring sandstorms in Mongolia and China's Inner Mongolia region that had blown thousands of tons of dust on the Chinese capital.

"This is the fourth storm of the season and air pollution were each about the same time, but this time the effect lasted longer," said an official in the office asked not to call.

The pollution was strongest in the early morning hours, but had begun to disperse after lunch, he said.

Beijing is the air quality is routinely rated among the worst in the world of international organisations such as the United Nations and the World Bank, with the increasing number of cars, industrial pollution and dust storms among the culprits.

China says it spent 16 billion U.S. dollars in the last ten years to improve the environment and air quality by moving polluting factories out of the capital, the increase in car emissions standards and other measures.

The authorities have said the city last year achieved its goal of 245 "blue sky days", or days with only light pollution, compared with only 100 days in 1998.

However, Beijing's poor environment remains a major concern for the International Olympic Committee and some athletes.

IOC chief Jacques Rogge said last year that endurance events like the marathon could be postponed or cancelled to protect the competitors' health during the August 8-24 games.

Hoping to avoid embarrassment, Beijing plans for a ban on about half of the city of three million-plus cars from the roads during the Games, while some factories are closed and construction work in order to stop.

Cities and provinces are also in the anti-combat pollution caused by similar measures.

Iraqi Football

FIFA President Sepp Blatter has urged the Iraqi government to stop interfering in sport to avoid being banned from international football and this year the Beijing Olympics.

Fifa slapped a temporary suspension on football Iraq and threatened to extend the ban to one year after the government announced last week they were the dissolution of the National Olympic Committee of Iraq.

Blatter said Iraq's actions were in strict accordance with FIFA regulations prohibiting political interference and the executive board was forced to take action.

Olympics and Clean Air

Before Olympics started the goverment of People Republic of China have shut down the factory around the venue 3 month before. I wonder the effect if it take longer time. Maybe clean air, more unemploye because the worker have not go to work, but it's all about prestige so the show must go on.
