China has presented a dramatic display of fireworks, music and dancing to mark the opening of its Beijing Olympics. The art performance of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympic Games, titled the "Beautiful Olympics", showcased China's 5,000-year civilization and its early encounters with the rest of the world.

Staged in the National Stadium, or the Bird's Nest, in north Beijing on Friday night, the 50-minute show consisted of two parts, namely "Brilliant Civilization" and "Glorious."

The first part "Brilliant Civilization" displayed China's age-old civilization with actors performing Chinese scroll painting, Chinese characters, movable-type printing and the Silk Road.

Dressed in traditional Chinese costumes, hundreds of actors sang the traditional Peking Opera, depicting a festive scene.

Five Chinese long paintings accompanied with performers' singing of Kunqu, an ancient and traditional art selected into world intangible cultural heritage list. It has reproduced the prosperity of ancient China.

The second part, comprising three chapters of Starlight, Nature and Dream, highlighted China's modern achievements and promising future.

A total of 2,008 actors performed Taiji, the most representative shadow boxing in Chinese martial arts, forming an accurate circle which signifies grandness and consummation in the traditional Chinese conception.

When Chinese vocalist Liu Huan and British songstress Sarah Brightman presented the theme song "You and Me" on the top of a gigantic elevating "globe," the 90,000 spectators in the stadium burst into cheers, waving flashlights and banners.

Actors walked, ran and even somersaulted on nine rings covered with the "Lucky Clouds," as if they were free from gravity and full of magic power.

At the end of the spectacle, thousands of volunteers ran into the field carrying pictures of 2,008 smiling faces of children around the world, highlighting the Games' theme of "One World, One Dream."

Some 10,000 performers took part in the ceremony, watched on TV by an estimated one billion people, before athletes paraded around the national stadium.

Security was tight in the capital, and three US activists were arrested after holding a pro-Tibet protest. Larger rallies took place in Nepal and India.

Analysts say it is the most politicised Games since the Cold War era.

The build-up to the event was dogged by worries over pollution and criticism of China's rights record.

Beijing has faced pressure to improve civil liberties - with US President George W Bush among several world leaders to express concern over a crackdown on dissidents.

But after the controversy of the run-up, the opening ceremony certainly changed the focus of attention.

Some 90,000 fans packed the new national stadium - known as the Bird's Nest because of its steel lattice construction - and cheered the performers.

The choreographed show took seven years to plan, and costs are estimated to have hit a record-breaking $40bn (£20bn).

It began at eight minutes past eight on the evening of 8 August, reflecting the belief widespread in Asia that eight is a lucky number.

More than three hours later, China's President Hu Jintao officially declared the Games open.

Pak generals meet to decide Musharraf’s fate: Gen Kayani entrusted to take decision

Parvez musharraf

Reuters, Islamabad

Eyes were on Pakistan's generals on Friday for any gesture of support for President Pervez Musharraf a day after a four-month-old civilian coalition declared plans to impeach the former army chief.

The ex-commando, who seized power in a coup nine years ago, has yet to make any public response after being given the option of facing a confidence vote in parliament or being impeached.

A session of the National Assembly, Pakistan's lower house of parliament, has been called for Monday, coincidentally Musharraf's 65th birthday, to start what could be a lengthy process unless the president decides to bow out without a fight.

The prospects of the nuclear-armed Muslim country that is also a hiding place for al Qaeda leaders lurching into a fresh bout of instability will be viewed with trepidation by the United States and other Western nations, and regional neighbors.

A two-day meeting of the army's top brass at headquarters in Rawalpindi, the city next door to Islamabad, ended on Friday with a statement mainly about promotions which made no mention of the political crisis.

The focus is now on the man to whom Musharraf passed command of the army when he retired from the military last November.

"The fate of Musharraf now lies in the hands of Chief of Army Staff General Ashfaq Kayani," said analyst Lisa Curtis in a commentary for the Washington-based Heritage Foundation.

Although Kayani had been Musharraf's intelligence chief, civilian politicians have been encouraged by his efforts to withdraw the army from political affairs.

Musharraf has said in the past he would resign rather than be dragged through an impeachment process by a parliament filled with enemies.

He has also said he will not use powers to dissolve parliament, but critics say the unpredictable president suffers from a "savior complex," and he could do just that in order to remove rivals he believes are making a mess of running Pakistan.

To do it he will need the army's backing, something which analysts have described as a "worst-case scenario."

Curtis said the United States should avoid interfering, other than to urge all sides to seek a peaceful resolution to the crisis to prevent a return to military rule.

While the army had accepted a switch to civilian rule which began with the defeat of pro-Musharraf parties in an election on February 18, it was supposed to be a transition, and the generals could react badly to any humiliation of their former chief.

Speaking to news channels on Friday, a leading member of the coalition, Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan expressed optimism that Kayani would not let the army "meddle in politics."

Despite the uncertainty, investors in a share market that has lost 38 percent after peaking on April 21, recovered some nerve on Friday as the main index rose 2 percent. The rupee at 72.60/70 to the dollar was a brushing all-time lows struck a month ago.

Politicians and analysts believe the generals will want to watch how the situation unfolds.

"They will have their concerns, but having concerns is one thing and sending in the tanks is quite another," said Ayaz Amir, an anti-Musharraf politician in the National Assembly, and a former army major.

Pakistan has yo-yoed between civilian and military rule throughout its turbulent history, but the army's image took a battering during the Musharraf era, particularly over its role supporting an unpopular U.S.-led war on terrorism.

The civilians, this time, took over an economy facing possible meltdown, with people suffering spiraling food and fuel prices, and Islamist militancy spreading across the northwest.

Musharraf was blamed for Pakistan's multiple crises by Asif Ali Zardari, the widower of slain two-time prime minister Benazir Bhutto and head of the coalition, and Nawaz Sharif, the premier Musharraf overthrew, as they announced plans on Thursday to impeach him.

Sharif's party said on Friday some ministers would rejoin the cabinet, having pulled out last May after Zardari backtracked on a commitment to reinstate Supreme Court judges Musharraf had dismissed during emergency rule late last year.

It said the rest would rejoin once the judges are restored.

World Adivasi Day today

BSS, Dhaka

Intentional Day of the Indigenous People will be observed in the country today with other member states of the UN to promote and protect the rights of indigenous people.

The day is observed every year in light of a resolution taken by the United Nations General Assembly in December 1994 to further strengthen international cooperation for the solution of problems faced by indigenous people. In April 2000, the Commission on Human Rights of the UN adopted a resolution to establish the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, which was endorsed by the Economic and Social Council in July 2000.

The mandate of the Permanent Forum is to discuss indigenous issues related to culture, economic and social development, education, the environment, health and human rights.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in a message on the eve of the International Day for Indigenous People said, the day has set out a framework on which states can build or rebuild their relationship with indigenous people.

'The suffering of indigenous people includes some of the darkest episodes in the human history', he said, adding the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples is a visionary step towards addressing the human rights of indigenous peoples.

The fundamental objective of the day is to put an end to the marginalisation of indigenous people, their extreme poverty, exploitation of their traditional lands and other grave human rights abuses they have faced and continue to encounter, the UN Secretary General said.

Ban Ki-moon called upon the member states of the UN and indigenous people to come together in a spirit of mutual respect to strengthen their relationship, promoting reconciliation and ensure that the past is not repeated.

Speakers at a discussion on the day at Jatiya Press Club here today urged for ensuring the constitutional rights of the indigenous people and creating opportunity for them to work with the people of mainstream. Former Army Chief Lt Gen (retd) M Mahbubur Rahman was present as the chief guest at the discussion held under the auspices of Coalition of Local NGOs, Bangladesh (CLNB).

Women leader Nargis Jahan Banu, journalist Syed Tosarraf Ali, human rights activist Abdul Mazid Mallik, SKOP leader Harunar Rashid and political leader Nurul Haque, among others, took part in the discussion while indigenous leader of Dinajpur Nabin Pahan was in the chair.

Mahbubur Rahman laid importance on moving ahead the peace to the indigenous people dominating Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) side by side give care to human rights of other aboriginals living in different areas of the country.

M Sohel Rana from RU

Hundreds of Islamic Chhatra Shibir (ICS) activists of Rajshahi University (RU) on Friday assaulted the acting Vice Chancellor of the University as he allegedly failed to ensure security of the students on the campus.

Earlier, several hundred agitating leaders and activists of Shibir of RU unit on Friday morning blocked traffic on Dhaka-Rajshahi highway for over one hour demanding arrest and exemplary punishment of the businessmen, salesmen and local people who have severely beaten up two RU Shibir activists and also other students of the University near Binodpur Bazar area.

Enamul several times went to Rajshahi BRTC bus office and met Kaioum for his money but Kaioum did not pay his money.

Following that on Thursday night, Enamul and some other Shibir activists stopped the BTRC bus and severely beaten up Kaioum at Binodpur Bazar as he again refused to pay the money.

At that time, some local people and salesman and owner of a local restaurant 'Gilape Vander' rushed to the spot and rescued Kaioum and beat up Shibir activists Enamul and Sharif Uddin,

On Friday morning the Shibir activists kept the road blocked from 11:30am to 12:30pm felling trees at University main gate that created huge traffic jam and suffering for the people of the area.

On hearing the road blockade news, RU acting VC Professor Mamnunul Keramat with other teachers rushed to the spot but Shibir activists assaulted the teachers, chased them with sticks and pelted brickbats.

Later, the Shibir activists staged a sit-in demonstration on the road demanding arrest and exemplary punishment of the businessman and local people responsible for the assault and demanded compensation for Enamul.

To meet drinking water shortage in Ramzan: WASA plans to sink 11 new deep tube-wells in city

Mahbubur Rahman Khan

Water Supply and Sewerage Authority (WASA), is setting up 11 new deep tube-wells and refurbishing 10 others at different places of Dhaka city to provide uninterrupted safe drinking water to the citizens during Ramzan.

Shab-e-Barat will be observed on August 16 and the holy Ramzan will begin 15 days later. Normally, the crisis of drinking water creeps up during the holy month for which the citizen faces much trouble.

Recalling the memories of the last years, Mahfuzur Rahman, an inhabitant of old Dhaka, said, "We had to wait all night for reserving supply water during Ramzan. Sometimes, we walked miles to fetch water from our relatives' houses. We do not even get water for ablution to offer prayers in mosques."

He requested this correspondent to draw the attention of the authority to take timely steps to mitigate the problem.

When The New Nation contacted the WASA an official said the demand of drinking water remains the same all through the 11 months of a year. But the demand increases during Ramzan just because of the change in the daily routine of most of the city dwellers, he added.

The WASA authority informed that it is sinking 11 new deep tube-wells at BDR Headquarters, Maddha Pirerbag, Maddha Paikpara, Banasri F- block, Mirpur-1, Vatara, Mirpur-10 (A), Khilgaon rehabilitation zone, Baaishtek, Mirpur-14 (D) and Lalmatia Block-D.

It also informed that WASA was repairing 10 deep tube-wells in different areas- Mirpur-10, Kalabagan, Kachukhet, Narinda, Dakhin Kamlapur, Becharum Dewri, Dakhin Bansri, Sonatangor, Mirpur-7 and Banasri-Block D of Dhaka city to ensure continuity of supply of drinking water during Ramzan.

The authority also said, the complaint centre of WASA would remain open round-the-clock to ensure consumers a constant supply of water.

The WASA water lorries would supply drinking water at Iftar times at different points in the city. The WASA would set up water tanks at market places, especially in old Dhaka to provide drinking water to the locals and pedestrians, the authority added.

When asked about load shedding and power interruptions, which are held responsible for the low production of water, an official replied that 264 generators would remain standby to make up for load shedding and power interruptions.

The 491 WASA deep tube-wells in Dhaka city pumps around 140-150 crore litres of water daily.

Date-expired sugar imported from India

Shamim Jahangir

A group of syndicate has imported substandard and date expired sugar from India at a cheap price, Bangladesh Sugar and Food Industries Corporation (BSFIC) sources said.

Due to such import, Bangladeshi sugar has failed access to its own market.

The 15 member syndicate also marketed the sugar mixing it with low quality sugar to earn huge profit, sources of BSFIC said.

They have already imported 38870.67 tonnes of low quality finished sugar from July 1 to July 25 through Darsana and Banapole Port. Out of this quantity, 32882.67 tonnes of sugar came through the Darsana land port and 5988 tonnes through the Banapole land port.

Demand of sugar in the country is 12 lakh tonnes per year while the inland production is 1.5 lakh tonnes, the BSFIC said.

The import cost of substandard and date expired sugar was US $320 (Tk 22,400) to US $340 (Tk 23,800) per tonne, according to sources.

According to International Commission for Uniform Method of Sugar Analysis (ICUMSA), the colour of sugar will be 150 ICUMSA. But, the colour of substandard sugar is 200 ICUMSA.

"I couldn't understand how the importers bought per tonnes of refined sugar at a cost of $320 to $325 from India where the quality sugar is sold at a cost of $356," a high official of BSFIC said.

He added that there is no authority to properly scrutinise the quality of sugar imported in the country.

According to Bangladesh Standard and Testing Institute (BSTI), the recommended colour quality of the refined white sugar is 150 ICUMSA. But, the imported sugar is not maintaining the colour range. "It has got over 200 ICUMSA," sources said.

According to Chittagong port authority, a total of 1,39,216 tonnes of refined sugar and 2,84,133 tonnes of raw sugar have been imported during July 2007 to May 2008 through the Port.

Abdul Aziz, Commercial Manager of Mrs Ainul Hoque, an importer of Indian Sugar told the New Nation over phone that they had bought Indian sugar from PKS limited, Amit Export and Krishna Traders at different prices.

"We have imported our first consignment at US $325. Then, we have also bought our second and third consignments at a cost of $330 and $365," he said adding, "We have bought the sugar with legal documents."

He rejected the allegation of bringing substandard and date expired sugar at a cheap price and said that we got US $25 train fare facilities from the Indian authority to bring the sugar in the country.

When contacted Chitta Babu of Majumder Traders told the New Nation, "there is nothing wrong to buy Indian sugar. If I have got the sugar at a low price, why I cannot purchase it."

Talking with the New Nation, a high official of BSFIC told we have now a stock of 49,720 tonnes of sugar in 15 state-run Sugar Mills.

"If the government do not take steps to stop the rampant access of substandard sugar, the state run mills will face a setback and may be compelled to stop their operation due to incurring of huge loss," he added.

Bhuiyan for gradual lifting of emergency

Staff Reporter

Former Secretary General of BNP Abdul Mannan Bhuiyan yesterday said that the BNP-Jamaat decision to boycott the just concluded local government elections was not correct.

"There was reason to take such a decision but participation in the elections could be a part of movement," he said while talking to reporters at his Gulshan residence.

Mannan Bhuiyan, who was expelled from the party last year, favoured the withdrawal of state of emergency gradually.

"The state of emergency should gradually be lifted before the forthcoming general elections. If the emergency was not withdrawn gradually, it would be difficult for the elected government to lift it at one go," he observed.

Evaluating the local government elections, the former BNP leader said the polls were peaceful, but not free and fair.

He mentioned that the voters would participate in the parliamentary elections spontaneously if the emergency was not in force.

About the prospect of the unity of the BNP, Mannan Bhuiyan said that he would extend his all out efforts to unify the party before the general elections.

He underlined the need for brining unity of BNP; he said the BNP would face a debacle in future if it was not united.

Meanwhile, BNP Standing Committee member Dr RA Ghani yesterday told reporters that the BNP wanted to take part in the elections, but not under the state of emergency.

About the local government elections, he alleged that polls were manipulated under a well thought out plan.

Hasina asks her party not to join election under emergency

UNB, Dhaka

Awami League president Sheikh Hasina, now in USA on interim bail, has instructed her party not to take part in general elections under the state of emergency.

"I am telling you, at the instruction of Sheikh Hasina, Awami League will not take part in the elections under the emergency," acting AL president Zillur Rahman told reporters after a meeting with several hundred members of newly floated Awami Tarun League at his Gulshan house.

Zillur said Awami League would not also join any elections before the parliamentary polls.

"Even if elections are held under the emergency, Awami League will not participate," he said, adding they would take appropriate steps at appropriate time.

The Awami League leader also protested devolving of magistracy powers to the army during the national elections. Army will be able to arrest any one under this power.

He said people in rural areas are scared of the presence of army and if they are given the magistracy powers, voters in rural areas would not turn up to election centers out of fear.

Zillur demanded withdrawal of the magistracy powers from the army.

About 250 members of the Tarun League met Zillur Rahman with demands for recognizing August 15 as National Mourning Day and a public holiday following the recent High Court judgment. The Tarun League also demanded permanent bail to Hasina.

Awami League leaders Abdur Razzak, Maj Gen (retd) M Subed Ali Bhuiyan and Tarun League general secretary Mosleh Uddin Mahfuz were, among others, present.

Fake driver behind passengers’ woes

Mamunur Rashid

At least 75 per cent of the licences of rent-a-car drivers, including CNG auto-rickshaws and taxicabs in the city are fake, so these drivers can easily harass the passengers by tampering with the metres and charge excessive fare.

The Government has so far not taken any step to the stop the practice.

At least 13,000 CNG run auto-rickshaws and 10,000 taxicabs run in the city. The drivers often refuse to take the passengers to their desired destinations and brawl between the passengers and the drivers have become a common sight in the city.

One of the law enforcement officers on condition of anonymity told the New Nation that about 75 per cent of the driving licences of vehicles on rent was computer generated fake document.

"So whenever we file cases against them they simply throw the licences away and issue another fake one."

The Bangladesh Road Transport Authority (BRTA) Chairman Sunil Kanti Bosh while talking to The New Nation said, "In order to ease the sufferings of the passengers a seminar to create awareness will be organised with the participation of the auto-rickshaw and taxicab drivers."

He said that the BRTA would set up some 30 billboards at different strategic points in the city where the government fixed fare of different vehicles will be mentioned.

"To meet the demands of the CNG-run auto-rickshaw drivers, the government increased the fare of all CNG-run vehicles But it is a matter of regret that they are still harassing passengers by charging extra fare, ignoring meter readings and declining to go to the passengers chosen destinations. So we have decided to launch a programme for creating awareness among all," he further said.

While visiting Motijheel, Mogbazar, Farmgate, Shahbagh, Newmarket and Gabtoli areas, this correspondent found that most of the rent-a-car drivers were refusing to follow the fare chart. Even most of the drivers did not want to go to the desired destinations of the passengers without charging extra under the very nose of the law enforcers.

Some of them were demanding extra fare from the passengers citing the abnormal price hike of daily essentials. They also said that they had to wait for hours in the long queue for filling CNG at the different filling stations.

Serajul Islam, a CNG-run auto-rickshaw driver of Farmgate area, told the New Nation that the daily deposit varies from Tk 550 to Tk 600. "We have to buy rice at higher price. Not only that but also the price of all essential commodities are now higher than before. So there is no alternative but to charge extra fare from the passengers."

Another CNG run auto-rickshaw driver Ibrahim said, "Although I have a light driving licence issued by the BRTA three years ago, I pay a fine of Tk 200 each time I get caught by traffic sergeant while riding a three-wheeler CNG run auto-rickshaw in the city. We lose two to three working hours every day in document checking by traffic police. "

Heroin worth Tk 1.80 crore seized in Dinajpur

BSS, Dinajpur

Members of Bangladesh Rifles (BDR), in a raid, recovered 1.8 kilograms (1 kg 800 grams) heroin from a compartment of a inter-city train 'Shimanta Express' on Thursday.

The value of the drug is about Taka 1.80 crore.

BDR sources said, a team of border guards found the heroin at a locker of one of the first class compartments of Parbatipur bound train from Khulna after searching it when it reached at Charki Railway Station under Birampur thana.

The experts of Narcotics Control Department of Dinajpur primarily identified the drug as heroin.

The smugglers, the sources said, fled the scene sensing the presence of BDR personnel.

A case was filed with Birampur thana in this connection.
