UNEP/CMS/ScC18/Doc.5.1.3 PROYECTO DE PLAN DE ACCIÓN INTERNACIONAL PARA ESPECIES INDIVIDUALES PARA LA CONSERVACIÓN DEL ARGALI (Preparado por la Secretaría PNUMA/CMS) 1. Tras la propuesta conjunta de Kazajstán y Tayikistán, se incluyó al Argali Ovis ammon en el Apéndice II de la CMS en la Décima Reunión de la Conferencia de las Partes (COP10) en 2011 (UNEP/CMS/Conf.10.15, Propuesta II/1). Al mismo tiempo, las Partes de la CMS adoptaron la Resolución 10.23 sobre Acciones concertadas y cooperativas, que designa el Argali como objeto de Acciones cooperativas. 2. En 2012, la Secretaría, en cooperación con los Estados del área de distribución, expertos internacionales y con el apoyo del Gobierno Federal de Alemania a través del Programa Regional sobre Uso Sostenible de los Recursos Naturales en Asia Central de la Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH (GTZ), inició el desarrollo de un Plan de Acción Internacional de Especies Individuales para la Conservación del Argali (Ovis ammon), y encargó su compilación a expertos independientes. El Plan de Acción ha sido elaborado con las aportaciones de expertos de los Estados del área de distribución de la especie, expertos internacionales y organizaciones con experiencia en la conservación del Argali. Para su elaboración se contó con el apoyo financiero de la Unión Europea en el marco del Proyecto Regional de Bosques y Gobernanza de la Biodiversidad Incluyendo Monitoreo Ambiental (FLERMONECA) implementado por el GIZ. 3. Teniendo en cuenta los criterios para el desarrollo de nuevos instrumentos en el marco de la CMS, indicados en la Resolución 10.16 (Prioridades para Acuerdos), la Secretaría, con el apoyo de GIZ, encargó un informe a principios de 2012 sobre “Análisis de carencias de conservación y necesidades para mejorar la conservación del Argali dentro del contexto de la CMS” (UNEP/CMS/StC40/Doc.21.a/Annex). El informe describe los pros y los contras de desarrollar un Memorando de Entendimiento para la conservación del Argali y proporciona las primeras ideas para un plan de acción internacional. 4. Se continuó el trabajo para desarrollar este Plan durante un taller sobre “Gestión Sostenible de Animales Silvestres en Asia Central”, que tuvo lugar en la Isla de Vilm, Alemania (22 al 26 de marzo de 2012), financiado por el Gobierno Federal alemán. Se elaboró un primer borrador que se discutió durante un segundo taller de seguimiento en Bishkek, Kirguistán (2 al 4 de diciembre de 2012). Tras esta reunión, diversos expertos desarrollaron y revisaron el proyecto y se produjo un segundo proyecto que figura en el anexo de este documento. 5. Dado el rango de distribución cubierto por esta especie, el proyecto de Plan no será traducido al francés y al español. Sin embargo, una traducción de cortesía estará disponible en ruso. Está prevista una ronda final de consultas formales con funcionarios gubernamentales en los Estados del área de distribución que tendrá lugar después de la discusión en la 18ª Reunión del Consejo Científico. Acción solicitada: Se invita al Consejo Científico a: (a) Tomar nota y revisar el borrador de Plan de Acción Internacional para Especies Individuales para la Conservación del Argali. (b) Aprobar el proyecto de Plan de Acción para su presentación a la COP11. 2 UNEP/CMS/ScC18/Doc.5.1.3/Annex: Argali Draft SSAP ANNEX International Single Species Action Plan for the Conservation of the Argali Ovis ammon 1 UNEP/CMS/ScC18/Doc.5.1.3/Annex: Argali Draft SSAP This Single Species Action Plan has been prepared to assist the fulfillment of obligations under: Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) International Single Species Action Plan for the Conservation of the Argali Ovis ammon CMS Technical Series No. XX April 2014 Prepared with funding from 2 UNEP/CMS/ScC18/Doc.5.1.3/Annex: Argali Draft SSAP Support for this action plan: The development and production of this action plan has been achieved with the financial support of the European Union via the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH (GIZ) in the framework of the FLERMONECA Regional Project Forest and Biodiversity Governance Including Environmental Monitoring.

    SELECTED WORKS OF CHOKAN VALIKHANOV CHOKAN OF WORKS SELECTED SELECTED WORKS OF CHOKAN VALIKHANOV Pioneering Ethnographer and Historian of the Great Steppe When Chokan Valikhanov died of tuberculosis in 1865, aged only 29, the Russian academician Nikolai Veselovsky described his short life as ‘a meteor flashing across the field of oriental studies’. Set against his remarkable output of official reports, articles and research into the history, culture and ethnology of Central Asia, and more important, his Kazakh people, it remains an entirely appropriate accolade. Born in 1835 into a wealthy and powerful Kazakh clan, he was one of the first ‘people of the steppe’ to receive a Russian education and military training. Soon after graduating from Siberian Cadet Corps at Omsk, he was taking part in reconnaissance missions deep into regions of Central Asia that had seldom been visited by outsiders. His famous mission to Kashgar in Chinese Turkestan, which began in June 1858 and lasted for more than a year, saw him in disguise as a Tashkent mer- chant, risking his life to gather vital information not just on current events, but also on the ethnic make-up, geography, flora and fauna of this unknown region. Journeys to Kuldzha, to Issyk-Kol and to other remote and unmapped places quickly established his reputation, even though he al- ways remained inorodets – an outsider to the Russian establishment. Nonetheless, he was elected to membership of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society and spent time in St Petersburg, where he was given a private audience by the Tsar. Wherever he went he made his mark, striking up strong and lasting friendships with the likes of the great Russian explorer and geographer Pyotr Petrovich Semyonov-Tian-Shansky and the writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky.

  • 6. Current Status of the Environment
    6. Current Status of the Environment 6.1. Natural Environment 6.1.1. Desertification Kazakhstan has more deserts within its territory than any other Central Asian country, and approximately 66% of the national land is vulnerable to desertification in various degrees. Desertification is expanding under the influence of natural and artificial factors, and some people, called “environmental refugees,” are obliged to leave their settlements due to worsened living environments. In addition, the Government of RK (Republic of Kazakhstan) issued an alarm in the “Environmental Security Concept of the Republic of Kazakhstan 2004-2015” that the crisis of desertification is not only confined to Kazakhstan but could raise problems such as border-crossing emigration caused by the rise of sandstorms as well as the transfer of pollutants to distant locations driven by large air masses. (1) Major factors for desertification Desertification is taking place due to the artificial factors listed below as well as climate, topographic and other natural factors. • Accumulated industrial wastes after extraction of mineral resources and construction of roads, pipelines and other structures • Intensive grazing of livestock (overgrazing) • Lack of farming technology • Regulated runoff to rivers • Destruction of forests 1) Extraction of mineral resources Wastes accumulated after extraction of mineral resources have serious effects on the land. Exploration for oil and natural gas requires vast areas of land reaching as much as 17 million hectares for construction of transportation systems, approximately 10 million hectares of which is reportedly suffering ecosystem degradation. 2) Overgrazing Overgrazing is the abuse of pastures by increasing numbers of livestock. In the grazing lands in mountainous areas for example, the area allocated to each sheep for grazing is 0.5 hectares, compared to the typical grazing space of 2 to 4 hectares per sheep.

  • First Contact Between Ya'qūb Beg and the Qing
    Journal of Asian and African Studies, No., Article First Contact between Ya‘qūb Beg and the Qing e Diplomatic Correspondence of * Shinmen, Yasushi Onuma, Takahiro e collection of the National Palace Museum in Taipei includes a Turkic let- ter sent to the Qing Dynasty in early 1871 by Ya‘qūb Beg (1820?–77), who established a political regime over the oasis cities of Xinjiang in the late 19th century. Here we introduce this Turkic document and consider the activities and intentions of Ya‘qūb Beg at that time. e aim of this paper is to reveal new facts about contacts between Ya‘qūb Beg and the Qing Dynasty. In 1870, Ya‘qūb Beg went on an expedition to Turfan and Urumchi and extended his territory to the east. During this campaign, Ya‘qūb Beg released and returned the Qing officials captured in Turfan and Urumchi by the Tungans and sent this letter to the Qing. e letter carefully explains how his conquest and rule of Xinjiang were legitimate; his actions were rationalized as the will of God and thus beyond human intellect. From the letter, we appreciate Ya‘qūb Beg’s desire to have the Qing acknowledge that his rule was an accom- plished fact. The Qing authorities in Hami immediately replied with the “Letter of Admonition,” in which clearly states that Xinjiang was part of the Qing’s “dynastic territory.” At the same time, the authorities began to explore possi- bilities for cooperation not only with the local Chinese militias, but also with the Tungans for defense against Ya‘qūb Beg.

  • These Sources Are Verifiable and Come From
    0 General aim: To give institutions a report as unbiased, independent and reliable as possible, in order to raise the quality of the debate and thus the relative political decisions. Specific aims: To circulate this report to mass media and in public fora of various nature (i.e. human rights summits) as well as at the institutional level, with the purpose of enriching the reader’s knowledge and understanding of this region, given its huge implications in the world peace process. As is well known, for some years now highly politicised anti-Chinese propaganda campaigns have targeted the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, often spreading groundless, non-verifiable or outright false information, triggering on these bases a sanctions war and causing serious damage to international relations. There is a dramatic lack of unbiased and alternative documentation on the topic, especially by researchers who have lived and studied in China and Xinjiang. This report aims to fill this gap, by deepening and contextualising the region and its real political, economic and social dynamics, and offering an authoritative and documented point of view vis-à- vis the reports that Western politicians currently have at their disposal. The ultimate goal of this documentation is to promote an informed public debate on the topic and offer policymakers and civil society a different point of view from the biased and specious accusations coming from the Five Eyes countries, the EU and some NGOs and think-tanks. Recently some Swedish researchers have done a great job of deconstructing the main Western allegations about the situation in the autonomous region of Xinjiang.

Country and Sector Background During the Soviet era, Kazakhstan was under extensive heavy industrial development, which focused on maximizing output with little regard for the associated environmental degradation. Environmental policies were weak and little effort was made to regulate industries and ensure that they would not pollute the environment with hazardous substances. With regard to hazardous waste storage, this is highly inadequate due to the absence of appropriate landfills as well as incentives to reduce waste generation. In some oblasts, current inappropriately stored hazardous waste at factory sites are causing contamination of ground and surface waters that may lead to significant health hazards1. Public Disclosure Authorized Currently Kazakhstan has a rapidly growing economy which until now has mainly been based on revenues from the oil & gas industry and the exploitation of its various other natural resources rich in iron, copper, zinc, uranium and other non-ferro metal ores. In the years following independence, Kazakhstan has recognized the importance of sustainable development and appropriate pollution control and made increasing efforts to address its multitude of environmental problems.

  • Introduction to Uyghurs & East Turkistan
    12 Nov 2010. London. Online version of this article available at: http://www.uyghurensemble.co.uk/en-html/introduction-to-Uyghurs.pdf _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO UYGHURS AND EAST TURKISTAN ALL ABOUT THE UYGHURS . Uyghur (also spelled Uighur, Uygur) means "unity" or "alliance”, it is pronounced [ÖY-ghur or Uigu:R]. They are a Turkic ethnic people. Pre-history Uyghurs: the name Uyghur (Uighur) appeared for the first time 17,000 years ago in the pre-historic period with The Great Uighur Empire in the Continent of Mu during the Tertiary Era Belonged to the Continent of Mu1. James Churchward describes in his book “the great Uighur Empire” as the largest and most important colonial empire belonging to Mu, the Empire of the Sun. "Next to Mu herself, the Uighur Empire was the largest empire the world has ever known." . Uyghur history can be divided into four distinct phases: Pre-Imperial (300 BC – AD 630), Imperial (AD 630–840), Idiqut (AD 840–1200), and Mongol (AD 1209–1600), with perhaps a fifth modern phase running from the death of the Silk Road in AD 1600 until the present. Most people know that Tibet was occupied by China in 1950s but how many know that the Uyghurs' country East Turkistan (Xinjiang 'new frontier' in Chinese) was occupied by China in 1949? 1 These theories are explained in Hans Stefan Santesson’s published book in 1970 entitled “Understanding Mu: The Uighurs” Chapter 10 pages 96-100. Hans Stefan Santesson has proved these theories according to James Churchward’s book “Lost Continent of Mu Motherland of Man” (1926) Chapter 5 pages 105-110.
