Beijing Escorts: Women: Everything is ok and nothing needs to change
This year is the 15th anniversary of the implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action. In 1995, the UN convened the Fourth World Conference on Women. The outcome of the Beijing Conference was the Platform for Action, an agenda for women’s empowerment.
…
An impressive 186 States have ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). The near universal ratification of this key international instrument for women’s rights is a reason for celebration on the occasion of its 30th Anniversary. Violence against women, a critical area in the Beijing Platform for Action, has been increasingly recognised as a key priority in all regions of the world. Many countries have adopted or strengthened legislation on domestic violence, and initiated programmes, policies and awareness raising activities addressing both old and new forms of exploitation and violence against women and girls.
…
The areas of critical concern for women identified in Beijing such as the economy, the environment, armed conflict, poverty, decision-making and political participation, as well as violence against women, to give only a few examples, appear more pressing than ever in our current economic and political context.

Beijing Escorts: Chinese Premier claims Cambridge University student shoe attack last year …
… She still has difficulties in walking,” Wen said, adding that her vision was also now impaired.
The Chinese transcripts of the online chat were ambiguous as to whether Wen’s mother suffered the haemorrhage when she saw the incident on television or once he had returned to China.
But Xinhua, a Chinese news agency, has insisted that the two events were connected. State media reported on Saturday that the haemorrhage was a direct consequence of what happened in Cambridge.
Mr Wen had been giving a lecture at the West Road Concert Hall when he was interrupted by the whistling and jeering of Mr Jahnke, a 27-year-old German student. The latter then stood up and shouted: “How can the University prostitute itself with this dictator? How can you listen to these lies?”

Beijing Escorts: Stress on Economy as China Holds Annual Meetings
BEIJING (AP) — China’s top parliamentary adviser says 2010 will be critical for maintaining growth, creating jobs, and diversifying away from exports, underscoring the economy’s central importance as the annual legislative session prepares to open.
Beijing declared that China had emerged from the global crisis after economic growth rebounded to 10.7 percent in the final quarter of 2009. But authorities say the global outlook is still uncertain, amid worries that a stimulus-driven torrent of lending is adding to inflation and fueling a dangerous bubble in stock and real estate prices.
”The year 2010 is a crucial year for China to respond to the impact of the global financial crisis and maintain steady and rapid economic development,” Jia Qinglin said in a speech at the opening Wednesday of the annual gathering of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference.

Dissidents and groups working on sensitive social issues came under increased pressure. AIDS activist Wan Yanhai, founder of the Beijing-based Aizhixing Institute, said police had ordered him to cancel a seminar Wednesday marking International Sex Worker Rights Day.

Declaration Adopted by Women’s Commission Reaffirms Beijing Texts, Stresses Need to Include Gender Perspective in Summit Review of Millennium Development Goals
…
NYAMKO SABUNI, Minister for Integration and Equality of Sweden, supporting the statement made on behalf of the European Union, said the adoption of the Beijing Platform had raised the bar for Governments across the world. Thanks to it, womens rights had been better implemented in State policies. There were many reasons to be proud. However, there were several areas of concern. Women were still being forced into trafficking, prostitution and under-aged marriage. They were being beaten, mutilated and killed, and denied opportunities to be educated and to work. That was true for all continents. Why? There was no simple explanation: different ideologies provided different answers.

DONATAS JANKAUSKAS, Minister of Social Security and Labour, Lithuania, said progress had been made in all 12 areas of the Beijing Platform, but more efforts were needed in some areas to close the gender gap. Gender equality was not just a women …

Beijing Escorts: For 13th Time, Critic of China’s Government Is Barred From Leaving Country
BEIJING — Chinese security agents in Sichuan Province detained Liao Yiwu, a prominent author and critic of the government, as he prepared to fly on Monday to a literary festival in Germany, human rights activists said.
…
Mr. Liao was imprisoned for four years in the early 1990s after writing an epic poem, “Massacre,” which denounced the Chinese government’s suppression of the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests. In December 2007, when he traveled to Beijing to receive an award from the Independent Chinese PEN Center, a writers’ rights organization, he was detained by the police and sent back to Chengdu.
In a text-message exchange last month, Mr. Liao said he had repeatedly met with Chengdu security officials to negotiate for permission to attend the Cologne event, but was told that he had been blacklisted by Beijing officials and forbidden to travel abroad.

Beijing Escorts: Project to assist disabled in Africa
It’s the same heart-wrenching story Kim Kargbo has heard so many times from disabled women in Sierra Leone.
Whether deaf or for missing a limb, they were accused of being possessed by the devil, abandoned by their family, sexually abused and forced to make a living through prostitution.

The Kargbo family — (from left) Jeremiah, Tim, Kim, Josiah and Tiana — embark Thursday on a trip to Sierra Leone, where Kim will be aiding disabled women. Kim lived in Sierra Leone from age 9 through high school.
“They’re complete outcasts,” Kargbo said.
In the hope of making a better life for these West African women, the Olive Branch resident has been working 60 hours a week, making endless phone calls and been elbow deep in paperwork.

Beijing Escorts: Toyota Ordeal Hardly Unique
Quality control expert Frederick Deming became a cultural icon in Japan, while fading into obscurity in the U.S. Management expert Peter Drucker likewise steadily grew in influence.
To be sure, Drucker also remains a major influence in American business circles, but his work is generally ignored in our business schools.
Drucker’s public impact and prominence began with his 1946 book “Concept of the Corporation,” based on a study of General Motors from the inside.
Though the author generally praised the enormous firm, Chairman Alfred P. Sloan Jr. was offended, apparently by criticism of aspects of labor-management relations. The book was banned within the company.
Things got worse. In the 1960s, when Ralph Nader and his young team publicly pressed for auto safety reform, the Big Three dug in.
Some auto executives crossed the line and hired investigators to discredit him, thugs to intimidate him and prostitutes to compromise him. Nader fought back, and ultimately succeeded.

Beijing Escorts: Defectors train to aid others from North Korea
So far, only two of the private counseling graduates have found work. There are only a few counseling positions for North Korean defectors — in some large hospitals and at a call center, Kim said, and most of the staff members in these offices are highly educated South Koreans in tight-knit groups.
But Choi is confident that opportunities are out there because more defectors are arriving in South Korea every day.
Over the last few decades, an estimated 15,000 North Koreans have fled the world’s most repressive regime. Most choose to settle in South Korea, where they enjoy new freedom.
But such freedom has its risks.
Many newcomers fall prey to petty crime and scams. Some young women are lured into prostitution. Half of the defectors in South Korea are unemployed, a 2008 government report says.
