Net profit attributable to shareholders was RMB502 million in 2000, representing an increase of 509% as compared with RMB82 million in 1999 notwithstanding the unfavourable operating environment faced by the Group as a result of inflated fuel prices. During 2000, with the Asian economies on their course of recovery, and the PRC economy gradually picking up under a series of positive financial and monetary policies, demand for aviation services was on the rise. Such demand was Yan Zhi Qing particularly keen during holidays, including the Chinese New Chairman of the Board of Directors Year, the Labor Day and the National Day. Amid the improved market environment, the Group experienced increases in load factors and aircraft utilisation rate during Such transactions not only helped expand the Group’s the period. As a result, the passenger revenue increased domestic route network, but also gave a boost to the from RMB11,819 million in 1999 to RMB13,255 million in operation efficiency and market share of the Group in the 2000. However, the Group’s operating profit was reduced area.

  • Frontier Politics and Sino-Soviet Relations: a Study of Northwestern Xinjiang, 1949-1963
    University of Pennsylvania ScholarlyCommons Publicly Accessible Penn Dissertations 2017 Frontier Politics And Sino-Soviet Relations: A Study Of Northwestern Xinjiang, 1949-1963 Sheng Mao University of Pennsylvania, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://repository.upenn.edu/edissertations Part of the History Commons Recommended Citation Mao, Sheng, "Frontier Politics And Sino-Soviet Relations: A Study Of Northwestern Xinjiang, 1949-1963" (2017). Publicly Accessible Penn Dissertations. 2459. https://repository.upenn.edu/edissertations/2459 This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/edissertations/2459 For more information, please contact [email protected]. Frontier Politics And Sino-Soviet Relations: A Study Of Northwestern Xinjiang, 1949-1963 Abstract This is an ethnopolitical and diplomatic study of the Three Districts, or the former East Turkestan Republic, in China’s northwest frontier in the 1950s and 1960s. It describes how this Muslim borderland between Central Asia and China became today’s Yili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture under the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. The Three Districts had been in the Soviet sphere of influence since the 1930s and remained so even after the Chinese Communist takeover in October 1949. After the Sino- Soviet split in the late 1950s, Beijing transformed a fragile suzerainty into full sovereignty over this region: the transitional population in Xinjiang was demarcated, border defenses were established, and Soviet consulates were forced to withdraw. As a result, the Three Districts changed from a Soviet frontier to a Chinese one, and Xinjiang’s outward focus moved from Soviet Central Asia to China proper. The largely peaceful integration of Xinjiang into PRC China stands in stark contrast to what occurred in Outer Mongolia and Tibet.

  • Speech by Mr Keith Yeung, SC, Director of Public Prosecutions At
    Speech by Mr Keith Yeung, SC, Director of Public Prosecutions at the Closing Ceremony of the “Criminal Law Conference 2017” on Saturday, 20 May 2017 Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, friends, 1. David Leung SC said that he is the person between you and the door. Uncharacteristic of him, he was wrong. It is me. Now we are really towards the end of the programme. And it has been a very very long day. But I am sure, you, like me, are not tired. You have seen me fighting for air time, and I am quite prepared to go on for two more hours. No, of course I am not going to do that. But before I can release you, I still have to do a couple of things. Firstly, of course, I want to thank our guests Judge Young and Professor Ormerod, and our speakers, and all of you, our guests, being here sacrificing a precious Saturday, more and more precious these days, and to be here to share with us your views and give us this tremendous atmosphere. Can I invite you to give yourself a big hand? And secondly, it would be useful if we can have a short stock-take as to what we have discussed today. 2. We started off with the issue of “active case management”. We all know it is closely related to our new Practice Direction 9.3, which is going to come into operation on 12 June this year. I have said this previously, and I adhere to this, that the practice direction is going to be the most important of its kind in the last 20 years.
