China Steps Up: Politician Pledges A Whopping $100 Million To Stop Poaching

China is stepping up its game to save wildlife with a massive $100 million donation to combat poaching in Africa. The Chinese Premier, Li Keqiang, announced the fund during a visit to the African Union headquarters in Addis Ababa.

The fund is not a moment too soon -- an estimated 22,000-35,000 elephants are killed every year by poachers, while last year poachers killed over 1,000 rhinos in South Africa alone. The funds will surely be helpful to curb supply of wildlife products in Africa, but meanwhile campaigns are working to stem demand from Chinese consumers, who value exotic animal products in traditional medicine and ivory ornaments.

Basketball star Yao Ming has worked with WildAid to raise awareness for the cruelty of shark finning:

our fishermen could be killing 234 fino babies on their boat, salting and frying and eating them, and it is still not up to the finos to ambush them and attack them in chinese territory. and if these finos don't release their captives soon, we will be eating fino babies soon, in china, in manila, everywhere we find them!

Still, you know, good PR is important.

The US maintains its cool mostly on expensive PR and expansive make-up of its own atrocities and injustice.

We need good PR at least where we are right about.

The nine Chinese fishermen caught poaching off Half Moon Shoal in the disputed Spratly Islands yesterday pleaded “not guilty” to the charges against them before the Puerto Princesa regional trial court.


Assisted by an interpreter provided by the Chinese embassy, they were presented to the Puerto Princesa RTC Branch 51 for arraignment proceedings that lasted for two hours.


Palawan provincial prosecutor Allen Ross Rodriguez said the accused also finally agreed to be represented by a public attorney. They had initially refused, saying the Philippines has no jurisdiction over them.


Judge Ambrosio de Luna of the environmental court assigned public attorney Jocelyn Fumera to the Chinese fishermen facing charges of violation of Republic Act 8550 (Fisheries Code) and RA 9147 (Wildlife Resources Conservation and Protection Act).

Chinese have also acquired exotic taste for sewer oil. Found this:

"China's food safety problems have no better symbol than the illegal and utterly disgusting problem of gutter oil. Cooking oil is used heavily in Chinese food, so some street vendors and hole-in-the-wall restaurants buy cheap, black market oil that's been recycled from garbage. You read that correctly. Enterprising men and women will go through dumpsters, trash bins, gutters and even sewers, scooping out liquid or solid refuse that contains used oil or animal parts. Then they process that into cooking oil, which they sell at below-market rates to food vendors who use it to cook food that can make you extremely sick. This video, produced by Radio Free Asia, shows in excruciating detail how a couple of gutter oil vendors go about their work. It starts with the couple scooping sewage out of the ground, and it ends with unwitting Chinese consumers chowing down on the end product..."

I am still in shock when see this gutter oil of chinese.
