Man arrested for lifeguard drowning.

Police have arrested a man who might have committed the drowning on a lifeguard last month.

35 year old Chen Cui was arrested at his Pyongjing apartment in the early hours of Monday. Mr Chen attempted to resist arrest by storming out of his flat but was pinned to the ground by armed response units.

Mr Chen has been formally charged with the murder of Winston Ming Hua, who was taking part in a nationwide strike of lifeguards who were demanding a pay rise.

A quarter of Bai Lungese see war with Dannistrians on horizon again.

Almost a quarter of Bai Lungese think that a war with the Dannistrians could happen again in the near future, a new poll revealed.

A survey conducted nationwide found that 24.8 percent of Bai Lungese envisage a future conflict, with more than a fifth of those saying it would happen "within a few years" and 10.1% say that it would involve nuclear weapons.

99.6% of Bai Lungese believe that Lord Howard belongs to Bai Lungese sovereignty.

The findings were conducted when researchers wanted to determine the overall attitude of the Bai Lungese public, 7 years after the Bai Lung-Dannistaan War.

The survey was conducted by Bai Lungese Daily Magazine between July and August.

President Liang seeks doubling of cigarette price.

President Liang has appealed to the Assembly of Bai Lung to pass legislation which would double the price of cigarettes in a bid to lower the country's smoking rate.

Speaking on the Jimmy Deng Show, President Liang has proposed a plan which would double the average price per pack to BL$15. The current price is $7.50.

Opposition to President Liang's proposal ranges from left to right. The Labour Party suggested proposals to outlaw the sale of tobacco to those born after 2000. Conservative MLAs, especially those who affiliate themselves with the True Conservative Movement, oppose President Liang's plans on civil liberty grounds.

About 60% of Bai Lungese men smoke, according to Health and Life magazine.

There has been annual hikes of cigarettes by an average of $0.02.

Non-smokers had complained to the Hang Seng council about Mr Ding's comments.

Mr Ding released a statement apologising for his 'wrongful choice of words toward sufferers of the illness'.

Some lung cancer sufferers have reject Mr Ding's apology and have launched a petition calling for his resignation.

True Conservative activist: People should smoke cigarettes and sack gays.

Labour Party and some Conservative Party politicians have heavy criticised a True Conservative activist for comparing the right to fire LGBT workers to the right to smoke.

Chen Bing spoke to BLCTV News earlier this morning by claiming that he does not respect 'people who deviate from the Bai Lungese norm'.

Quote:
 
“You need to respect the autonomy of people who are running their business. It’s kind of like the smoking bans imposed in this country in 2009. Do you ban smoking or do people have the right to private property? I think people have the right to own private property.

In public spaces, define public! Or do we have unfettered tyrany so the government can have smoking bans. The government should not be allowed to micromanage people’s lives and businesses. If you have a business, do you want the government to come in and tell you you need to hire somebody? Why should government be there to impose on the freedoms we enjoy? The gays do not respect our social norm so why should we respect the people who deviate the Bai Lungese norm?”

-Chen Bing


Mr Chen's comments have been strongly criticised by the leaders of the Labour and Conservative Party, with PM Lin publicly distancing himself from the comments.

Chen Guolong could face life imprisonment for whistleblowing role.

Blind democracy activist Chen Guolong could face life imprisonment for his role in releasing classified documents during the Richard Im administration, according to a top lawyer.

In 2012, escaped from his home whilst being detained and escaped to a Dannistrian embassy. His deaf older brother also faces criminal charges of assault.

Clive Cui Zibo has been chasing whistleblower cases since he began his career as a lawyer in 1979 when he set up business in Dannistaan.

Now based in Pyongjing, Mr Cui has believed that it is unlikely that Mr Chen could be acquitted for his crimes. He added that even if Mr Chen has been found not guilty, he still faces an outstanding charge of escaping whilst in detention.

Mr Chen is due in court on the 25th November and will present his defence of the case.

20 'establishment' Conservative MLAs defeated in primaries.

20 Conservative MLAs have been defeated in their primaries by hardline Conservatives whilst running for the 2014 Lower House Elections.

True Conservative Movement activists have downplayed their role in their defeat of 20 'establishment' Conservatives. They called the selection of hardline Conservatives as a victory for the Bai Lungese people against 'Pyongjing elites'.

Under the Fair Elections Act 2007, the 20 defeated candidates would not be allowed to run under an independent ticket.

Tougher controls on toys pledged.

Mr Qin said the list of toy manufacturers involved in the lead poisoning scandal will be constantly updated.

Toy manufacturer Huang Jin has announced that they will 'heavily scrutinise' their paint suppliers to ensure that they will contain no lead.

Police arrest violent Kashgar activists for vandalising railways.

30 Kashgar activists have been arrested by police after they used sledgehammers to destroy part of a railway track in Eastern New Xinjiang.

The violent protesters chanted in Kashgari, calling for all Bai Lungese 'occupiers' to be removed immediately and hailing Bischkek State, an emerging extremist organisation.

Police were initially unable to remove the men but reinforcements quelled the group. One officer was injured in the head by one of the men.

Bai Lung Rail has confirmed that part of the Dong Men-New Xinjiang line has been vandalised and repairs are underway with lengthy delays anticipated.

Darrell Ai Sha proposes book ban.

Outspoken and controversial MLA Darrell Ai Sha has brought forward a resolution which ban a controversial book about the blind democracy activist which is due to be released in 18th December.

Chen Guolong: Blinded by Lies is an autobiography co-written by Chen himself with the help of prolific author Arthur An. The book tells the alleged corruption that is pervasive within the post-Chenite governments.

The book is highly critical of both sides of the political spectrum, claiming that high profile politicians Richard Im, a Labour President, and Darrell Ai Sha, a Conservative MLA, profited from the document leaks scandal in 2012. Mr Chen has expressed his interest in running for President in 2017.

Mr Ai's resolution calls for the ban of this book and has gathered 20 co-sponsors, all of them Conservatives.

The Labour Party has yet to make a comment on the tentative release of the book or has yet to endorse Mr Ai's resolution.

Inflation down 1.5%.

Annual inflation has marginally fallen to 1.5% last month compared to 1.6% in July.

A spokesperson for President Liang said that inflationary pressures stayed on an easing trend, with the underlying Composite CPI showing a slightly slower year-on-year increase in August, reflecting the overall confidence within consumers.

The spokesperson also pointed out that a reduction in income tax boosted consumer spending who now have more purchasing power. The claim was shortly disputed by the opposition Labour Party who questioned the effectiveness of the income tax cuts, particularly on the higher income scale.

Fishermen beaten in Bai Lungese waters.

Human rights activists have condemned the Bai Lungese Police Marine Unit for detaining a fishing boat and demanded a fine.

A boat from Port Sung with 5 crew was seized by the police on 16th September while fishing 20 miles from the port.

The owner of the boat told Amnesty Bai Lung that he was told by the local chief constable that he would only release the boat and crew if he paid a fine of BL$25,000.

On 21st September, the crew turned up in at Amnesty Bai Lung's HQ in Pyongjing to show their wounds on their bodies.

A spokesperson to President Liang has announced that the President will personally speak to the Chief Constable of Port Sung and explain his story of the claims. One activist from Amnesty Bai Lung called the beating of the fishermen as the worst case of human rights abuse since the Chenite regime.

Beaten fishermen to be examined closely at hospital.

The five fishermen who were allegedly beaten up by police at Port Sung will be examined closely by doctors at the Grand Golden Bar Hospital in Pyongjing.

According to Amnesty Bai Lung, the examination is said to take place later today and will used as proof to show that the bodily injuries were caused by police brutality.

The examination will take place over a period of 1 week as doctors will ascertain the extent of the injuries inflicted on the 5 men.

Fishermen injures fake, Conservative MLA claims.

Conservative MLA Roh Chee Ba has questioned the legitimacy of the story of five fishermen who were beaten up by police at a Port Sung police station.

Mr Roh has discussed the incident on BLCTV News, claiming that the injuries of the men are fake and that special effects artists were employed to make the injuries look more severe they really were. He also called for video footage of the men as further proof.

Quote:
 
'I will question the legitimacy of the story of five fisherman who were unfairly treated by law enforcement officers. The photos shown do not prove that they were actually injury but it may have been the work of a special effects artists who applied fake injuries to make it look really bad for the photo shoot. We need video footage to show the men are genuinely injured like showing signs of limping.'

-Roh Chee Ba


President Liang phoned the Chief Constable of Port Sung, saying that he regrets the handling of the maritime incident but denies mistreating the five men.

Battery con man jailed for 20 years.

A salesperson who sold bogus batteries that claim to self itself, has been jailed for 20 years in prison.

Randall Ren of Sing Ren had sold over 20,000 units of the 'Qi Batteries', which claimed to use 'Qi energy' from the environment to recharge itself.

Mr Ren was caught back in July 2013 when a Sales Executive for Huang Jin Dian had noticed that Mr Ren's batteries were very similar to their own batteries.

Further evidence of the con was backed up by 50 'friendly witness' to the case, who complained that the Qi batteries did not self-recharge whilst in use.

The sentencing will be followed by an additional 10 years of probation.

Pro-democracy student activists arrested near Assembly.

55 University students have been arrested after they committed 'acts of anti-social behaviour' at the Assembly of Bai Lung.

On Saturday afternoon, the Bai Lungese Federation of Students (BLFS) marched in the streets of the capital to protest against President Liang's refusal to implement electoral reform such as using Proportional Representation over First Past the Post. The BLFS has accused the Liang administation of gerrymandering districts so that the Conservative Party would yield a majority of seats in both Chambers of the Assembly, even if the Labour Party received more than 50% of the popular vote.

Many of the students were armed with googles, masks, kevlar helmets and raincoats in preparation of police confrontation.

The protests started peacefully but became more violent when the students reached the Bai Lungese Assembly building. Several students shoved riot police to the ground and climbed over fences. Despite wearing apparatus designed to resist tear gas, police have kept students away from the entrance of the Assembly.

Labour MLA Randy Chang Wen called the protests as the most frightening acts of civil disobedience in his entire life.

Police have reported that 55 students have been arrested for various acts of anti-social behaviour including graffiti, trespassing and violence against police officers.

By 1 AM today, the protesters were confined to the outer areas of the Assembly where they continue to demostrate against President Liang's policies.

Hardware stores ban goggles to students.

50 hardware stores have imposed a ban on the sale of safety goggles and masks to University Students over fears that they are participants of the recent anti-President Liang protests.

The stores will not sell to individuals who 'look under 25' and they will ask anyone for ID to check their age.

Googles and gaskmasks were used in the protests to circumvent the police's use of tear gas. Kevlar helmets were also worn by protestors to

Reports of shops refusing to sell gasmaks to younger people simply because they were wearing backpacks have been reported on ThrushXpress.

The protests against President Liang still continues as 1,000 students camp some 100 yards away from the Assembly building. Some students also camped outside the Presidential Office building.

The man was identified as 20 year old Jameson Liang who was a student of Polytechnic University of Bai Lung and was studying a degree in English.

Little details is known about the death of Mr Liang. Friends of the 20 year old have mentioned that he refused to drink or eat anything until the Liang administration implemented political reforms immediately.

President Liang: Protests are illegal.

President Liang has sharply rebuked the on-going protests against his refusal to implement any electoral reform in future Legislative elections.

Speaking on national tv, President Liang also warned to other nations that the matter was an internal affair for Bai Lung. Calling the protests illegal acts that violate public order, President Liang has called for the protests to be broken up immediately.

Quote:
 
"Bai Lung's affairs are Bai Lungese's internal affairs. All countries should respect Bai Lung's sovereignty. For any country, for any society, no-one will allow those illegal acts that violate public order. They are dangerous and threaten the national security of the people and these acts must dissipate promptly before they inflict further harm."

-President Liang


Earlier, student demonstrations angry at the status quo and the recent announcement of redistricting of several constituencies in the country. Pro-democracy activists and the Bai Lungese Federation of Students have accused the Liang administration of deliberately implementing the changes so that the opposition Labour cannot obtain a majority in both chambers of the Assembly even if they receive a clear majority of the popular vote.

Several students from the federation have called for President Liang to step down on Friday.

University expels 30 students over Bai Lungese Federation of Students affiliation.

The University of Choi has expelled 30 students 'permanently' over their close ties with the Bai Lungese Federation of Students.

President Gong Ing reportedly recognised 'faces' of the participants of the anti-Liang demonstrations in several photos published by newspapers. The students also failed to show for lectures adding suspicion that they did take part in the protests.

The President did not publish a statement in person but a spokeperson said it was regretable that the students 'were let go as a result of regretable actions.'

BLFS rejects talks with President Liang.

The Bai Lungese Federation of Students have rejected talks with President Liang after claiming that protesters got into scuffles with True Conservative Movement activists.

There were reports of alleged TCM activists using steel pipes to break the legs of the students but no police officers intervened.

Police denied colluding with the TCM activists, and said they had arrested members of criminal gangs.

Activists are protesting at President Liang's refusal to implement proportional representation in the Assembly of Bai Lung and have been occupying parts of the capital.

Chief Justice: Use military action to clear out pro-democracy protests.

Chief Justice Raymond Hong has suggested that the military should intervene in the 'Goggles Revolution', the on-going protests in the capital held by pro-democracy activists.

The Goggles Revolution is referred to the fact that protesters are wearing goggles to protect themselves against tear gas and pepper sprays.

Speaking on Politics Today on BLCTV News, Hong has expressed concerns that the recent anti-Liang demonstrations has been 'threatening the stability and prosperity of the country'.

Mr Hong has claimed that he phoned President Liang this morning to authorise the use of military force on the protesters if they do not break up, especially those gathered outside of the Assembly of Bai Lung. He suggested that tanks, military personel and airfighters could be used against the protesters.

The comments have been strongly condemned by pro-democracy activists, claiming there is little difference between him and the dictatorial regimes of Chen Jong Sun and the military junta. The protests is in its second week.

Anti-Liang protests subside as exhaustion sets in.

Exhausted pro-democracy demonstrators were debating the next step in their campaign Monday as their numbers collapsed and the city returned to work after a chaotic week of mass protests.

The decreasing strength of the protesters coincided with a controversial comment made by Chief Justice Raymond Hong where he suggested that military force could be used to break up protests. Pro-democracy activists deny that Hong's hawkish suggestions discouraged protesters from demostrating any further.

The government had been forced to shut its headquarters on Friday due to the ranks of protesters blocking the access roads in the capital, leaving 10,000 civil servants at home. On Monday a small group of protesters kept the entrance to the Assembly of Bai Lung partially blocked with barricades, but opened a narrow section to allow workers to enter.

"I'm happy the protesters opened the barriers today," one civil servant said as he pushed through. "I've got to work or there will be no food on the table!''

In fear of a repeat of ugly scenes a week ago when police unleashed tear gas on the crowds, only a small but committed group of about a thousand had waged a vigil through the night.

Xin Wangjiao shops feel the squeeze from demonstrations.

Over half of 1,500 shops in Xin Wangjiao say Pro-Democracy activists has drained their takings by 20 percent or more while a third say their losses are a little less.

Most shops put their losses at around BL$1,500 a day while one put it at BL$50,000.

The Pyongjing Chamber of Commerce vice chairman Jang Diyen said business had dropped more than 25 percent on average, with the number of visitors down by 10 percent.

"The [Pro-Democracy] movement has not just made various industries lose money we are more concerned about the residual effect it will have on Bai Lung's international reputation," Jang said.
