		<description><![CDATA[By Vivian Ni Feb. 3 &#8211; Twitter, the U.S.-based micro-blogging service provider, has recently found itself at the receiving end of criticism due to its new policy that will allow content censorship on a country-by-country basis. The policy adjustment may have revealed Twitter’s interest in returning to the cash-flowing Chinese market, where the government implements strict internet censorship regulations and blocks an array of Western social media web sites. In a blog post last Thursday, Twitter said that it had refined its technology and gained &#8220;the ability to reactively withhold content from users in a specific country – while keeping &#8230; <a href="http://www.china-briefing.com/news/2012/02/03/twitter-when-freedom-of-speech-collides-with-business-interests.html">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Vivian Ni Jan. 30 &#8211; Although China has made it more difficult for foreign investors to enter its e-payment sector over the last year, the potential profits offered by the country&#8217;s massive consumer population are proving too attractive to miss. Recently, American Express – the U.S. financial service provider that has long considered China as its critical strategic market – established a new partnership with a growing Chinese payment service company, Lianlian Group, by means of equity investment and technology authorization. AmEx said on January 18 that it will license its digital wallet Serve – a next-generation commerce technology &#8230; <a href="http://www.china-briefing.com/news/2012/01/30/american-express-extends-reach-to-chinas-e-payment-market.html">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jan. 20 – The effects of climate change could seriously damage the Chinese economy in the near future, according to the Chinese government&#8217;s latest research into the phenomenon. Both food and water supplies are threatened with critical shortages, while an increase in flooding and drought could ravage vulnerable areas. The 710-page “Second National Assessment Report on Climate Change” was published last year, but only recently entered the public domain. Authored by teams of government-supervised scientists, the report builds on an initial assessment conducted in 2007 to provide evidence and forecasting which will shape, rather than set, government policy.

An initial fleet of some 300 e-taxis are now plying the roads. Named the E6, the vehicle offers enough space for five passengers and has a range of some 160 kilometers. Plans are currently being put into place to convert all of Shenzhen’s public vehicular transport to electric – including buses and all taxis – over the next five years.
