Drafting of halal food standards law dropped from 2016 legislation plan
The drafting of a law on halal food was not listed in China's legislative work plan for 2016 Donne Nike Air Huarache Triple Nere Scarpe , after meeting with mixed reactions from the public, including from scholars who believe the law would open the door to allowing the secular government to have authority over religious issues.
The Legal Affairs Office of the State Council announced in March that China had been studying whether to draft the law, years after the State Council first tasked the Ethnic Affairs Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC) to draft a national regulation on halal food in 2002.
The committee suggested speeding up passage of the legislation in 2012 and 2015, saying that the legislation was "reasonable and necessary" as it relates to "national unity and social stability."
The legislation was opposed by many scholars, including Xi Wuyi, an expert on Marxism at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Donne Nike Air Huarache Pelle Scarpe Triple Nere , who said it "violates the principle of separation of State and religion."
It was not clear whether drafting of the law had been rescheduled or withdrawn from consideration.
Several Muslims destroyed the facilities of a bakery in Xining, Northwest China's Qinghai Province in May 2015 after discovering non-halal items such as pork sausages and ham in its delivery van. In the same month, hundreds of Muslims in Xi'an, Northwest China's Shaanxi Province also took to the streets to demand a ban on the sale of alcoholic beverages - which are forbidden by the Koran - at local halal restaurants.
According to an official from the religious affairs department of the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region quoted in a report by Legal Daily, at least 20 million Chinese from several ethnic minority groups eat halal food, so it is necessary to have national legislation on halal products.
However Nike Air Huarache Triple Bianche Pure Platinum Scarpe , Wei Dedong, vice dean of the School of Philosophy at the Renmin University of China, told the Global Times on Sunday that the most important solution is not a national law, but rather stronger enforcement of present laws on food safety and other issues that are applicable to the regulation of the halal food market, as many provincial regions including Xinjiang have already implemented local regulations on halal food.
Wei also noted that a unified standard could be issued by religious authorities, instead of by a national law Scarpe Nike Air Huarache Pelle Bianche , which would authorize the secular government to define Islam-related issues.
BERLIN, Oct. 31 (Xinhua) -- Retail sales in Germany suffered the biggest monthly drop in over seven years in September, official data showed on Friday, adding to concerns that private consumption might fail to uplift the wavering economy.
Adjusted in calendar, seasonal and inflation fluctuations, retail sales in Europe's biggest economy slumped by 3.2 percent month-on-month in September Scarpe Nike Air Huarache Ultra Breathe Nere Bianche , German Federal Statistical Office said.
It was the sharpest drop since May 2007, and led by a fall in sales in textiles and clothes which declined by 7.3 percent in adjusted term in September on August.
The data joined a slew of disappointing signs that German economy, which once led the recovery of euro zone as a powerful engine, was losing its momentum.
German government, following organizations such as the International Monetary Fund and leading economic institutes, has cut its forecast for economic growth this year to 1.2 percent. Previously Scarpe Vans Chiaro SK8-Hi Slim Nere , the government expected the economy to expand by 1.9 percent.
Official data on gross domestic product (GDP) in the third quarter was scheduled to be released on Nov. 14. German central bank Deutsche Bundesbank expected that the GDP would stagnate or would only improve slightly from the second quarter when German economy contracted by 0.2 percent, following a growth of 0.7 percent at the start of this year.
Weak global growth and geopolitical tensions in Ukraine and Middle East was regarded as main reasons behind Germany's slowdown. Private consumption, which helped guarantee an overall economic growth of 0.4 percent in 2013, was looked to for supporting the growth in 2014 when exports plunged and investment climate was hit by external uncertainties.
German government insisted that German domestic demands remain dynamic, referring to stable labour market, increasing wages Scarpe Vans Sk8-Hi Pelle Bianche Verdi , moderate inflation and historically low interest rate.
Recent data on consumption, however, showed that the domestic contributor was not immune to negative factors abroad.
Consumers morale in Germany fell for two consecutive months in August and September due to weak economic outlook and just stopped the drop and revived slightly in October.
"The consumer climate has, for the time being, escaped the impact of the economic slowdown as a result of the various international crises. Private consumption can therefore continue to play its assigned role as a key pillar of the German economy," said Rolf Buerkl Scarpe Vans Old Skool Chiaro Grigie Bianche , an expert from market research institute GfK.
"However, if the situation in the crisis areas were to escalate, it is likely that the consumer climate will be affected," he said.
CHICAGO, Sept. 7 (Xinhua) -- Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) grains futures closed lower on Thursday with corn futures sagging more than one percent on technical selling and expectations of a U.S. bumper harvest.
The most active corn contract for December delivery dropped 5.75 cents, or 1.59 percent Dime x Scarpe Vans Old Skool Pro Bianche Chiaro Grigie , to 3.5525 dollars per bushel. December wheat delivery fell 8.5 cents, or 1.91 percent, to 4.3725 dollars per bushel. November soybeans went down 2.25 cents, or 0.23 percent, to 9.6875 dollars per bushel.
Wheat faced pressure from weak worldwide demand for U.S. supplies and a round of profit taking following a run-up to the thre.
