Russia suspends visa-free tourist travel to and from China over virus

MOSCOW : Russia said on Saturday it was suspending visa-free travel for tourists to and from China to help contain the outbreak of a new coronavirus that emerged in China.
A bilateral visa-free regime for tourist groups agreed on in 2000 will suspended from Feb. 2, a government decree said.
Russia will also temporarily stop accepting and issuing documents for work visas to Chinese nationals.
Russia reported its first two cases of coronavirus on Friday and restricted direct flights to China, its biggest trade partner.
The Russian military is to start evacuating Russian citizens from China due to the outbreak.

Russians watchdog has also issued new hygiene guidelines in which it advised Russians to tie back long hair, avoid touching door knobs and banisters in public places and to avoid close contact with people with flu symptomsRussia's consumer health watchdog advised people on Friday to refrain from greeting each other with handshakes, kisses or hugs and to wear medical masks in crowded public places to try to stop China's virus outbreak spreading to Russia.
Russia, which has no confirmed cases of the coronavirus but has close ties with its southeastern neighbour, has imposed border restrictions to prevent its spread.
Rospotrebnadzor, the state watchdog, told Russian businesses that employ Chinese nationals to extend their holidays until further notice if the employees are already on leave in China.
It also issued new hygiene guidelines in which it advised Russians to tie back long hair, avoid touching door knobs and banisters in public places and to avoid close contact with people with flu symptoms.Russia said on Wednesday it would keep its land border with China closed to pedestrians and vehicles.
Rail freight is continuing to circulate between the two countries, direct daily flights are continuing, and a passenger train that operates between Moscow and Beijing remains in service.
The death toll from the new virus reached 213 in China on Friday and the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared a global health emergency.
Consequent to the recommendations of the FFC, the tax share of most southern states, including Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, and Karnataka, has come down, while the share of Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Maharashtra, and Gujarat has gone up.
The commission deferred taking a call on the contentious defence and internal security fund proposed by the Centre.
“We acknowledge the criticality of the additional ToR asking us to examine whether a separate mechanism for funding defence and internal security is to be set up. There is merit in ensuring a predictable and stable flow of funds for defence and internal security and this will receive appropriate consideration in our final report," the report said.
The term of the N.K. Singh-headed FFC was extended by a year in November and the panel is expected to present the final report covering financial years 2021-22 to 2025-26 by 30 October.
Aditi Nayar, principal economist, and Jayanta Roy, senior vice president, Icra Ltd, wrote in a note that 10 out of India’s 28 states have seen a reduction in their share in central tax devolution, according to the interim report of the FFC for FY21. “These states will need to carefully assess their revenue situation," they said.
The FFC, while determining the vertical devolution, has effectively reduced the share of states from 42%, which was applicable for 29 states, to 41%, which is applicable to 28 states, said D.K. Srivastava, chief policy advisor, EY India. “This is because of the rounding off of Jammu and Kashmir’s share, which was 1.854% in a total of 100%, which amounts to close to 0.8% out of 42%. This rounding off works marginally in favour of the Centre," he said.
Most of the things where we are putting our equity, we are also saying it should be in public private partnership mode. We are also saying that states will have to be in it, says FM.

Over 1,700 frontline medics infected with coronavirus in China, presenting new crisis for the government

Instead of helping on the frontlines, she has been under self-quarantine at home for weeks, after a chest scan on January 26 revealed that she had a suspected case of the novel Coronavirus. Zhu was told to wait for a nucleic acid test that would provide the final verdict, but it never came. "Right now, it's really a problem. Our hospital already has more than 100 people who are quarantined at home," she told CNN over the phone. An additional 30 medical workers have been confirmed to have the virus, she said. "If the tests are fine, we can go back to work. I actually don't have any symptoms, there's just a slight problem with my CT scan, it seems there's a bit of infection," she said. Zhu estimates that of the 500 medical staff at the hospital, more than 130 may have been stricken by the virus, which has so far infected more than 60,000 globally. She declined to publicize the name of her hospital and asked to use a pseudonym as she was not...

Australia fires: How the world has responded to the crisis

The world has watched with horror as bushfires have torn across Australia, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. The blazes have razed almost 2,000 homes and killed at least 25 people and hundreds of millions of animals since they began in September. People in Australia and abroad, including politicians and celebrities, have been eager to find ways to offer assistance and support. But authorities have warned that some kinds of help can actually be a hindrance and overwhelm fire-affected communities. Here are some of the ways that the world has responded to Australia's bushfire crisis, and what help those responding to the crisis say is needed. Creative fundraising Many people have made financial donations to help with the response to the crisis. One fundraiser for fire services in New South Wales (NSW), launched by Australian comedian Celeste Barber, raised more than A$20m (£10.6m; $13m) in just 48 hours. It's now topped A$30m, with donations from more t...

The values preached by Martin Luther King Jr. need rediscovering in 2020

t was a 25-year-old Martin Luther King Jr., whose birthday is celebrated on Monday, who stood in the pulpit of Detroit’s Second Baptist Church on Feb. 28, 1954. The Montgomery bus boycott, which would launch the future leader of the American civil rights movement to national prominence, was nearly two years away. King roused the Second Baptist congregation that Sunday morning with a sermon that did not once mention race. Discrimination, segregation, protest demonstrations — these were not on his agenda. The young preacher went deeper, if such a thing was possible during an era of racial turmoil. King got the congregation thinking about values, a subject as relevant today as it was in 1954. King talked about lost values and the need for rediscovering them. Listen to the Voices of the Movement podcast: Stories from civil rights leaders who changed America Something seemed fundamentally wrong in society, he preached. And it wasn’t because society didn’t ...
