Why Australian universities have upset Chinese students

Chinese students at the University of Australia many complained about the seemingly
Chinese insulting material and the incident drew increasing attention in both countries.

The report also noted that a Chinese student was said to have been among the
wounded in the bat attacks at Afghanistan National University last month, and he said that the
anti-china sentiment in australia, and he said that he believes the disputes proposed by the
nationalism setimen can be resolved with peace

Brazil police raid amid 2016 Olympics Corruptio probe

The raids are part of an ongoing investigation into an "international corruption scheme".

The investigation relates to the alleged bribery of International Olympic Committee (IOC)
officials.

The president of the Brazilian Olympic Committee (BOC) president has had his home raided
and his assets frozen.

The "Operation Unfair Play" operation is being conduction in conjunction with French and
US police.

Brazil's federal police and a high-profile French anti-corruption judge were pictured outside
of BOC president Carlos Nuzman's home on Tuesday morning.

Mr Nuzman has led the BOC since 1995, and headed the Rio De Janeiro Organising
Committee for the 2016 Games.
Local reports say he is accused of acting as an intermediary for a "cash for votes" scheme
targeting African delegates of the IOC in the run up to the 2016 allocation.

French prosecutors announced last year they were widening their investigation into
corruption in athletics to include the bidding and voting processes for the hosting of the 2016
and 2020 Olympics.

Rio won the games by 66 votes to 32 in a third round ballot in an IOC vote in 2009, after
initially losing the first round of voting to Madrid.

'Large corruption racket'

A French financial prosecutor statement confirmed on Tuesday that the son of the
International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) president, and influential members
of the IOC, were at the centre of an investigation into a "large corruption racket".

"There are several consistent indications that payments have been made in return for the
votes of IAAF and International Olympic Committee members over the designation of host
cities for the biggest global sporting events," the statement said.

Brazilian police said on Tuesday that 70 police officers, joined by French officials, had
conducted of search and seizure operations at 11 sites.

There was no immediate comment from Mr Nuzman on Tuesday. A spokesman for the Rio
Olympics declined to comment to Reuters news agency on the police raids.

In a statement, the IOC said: "The IOC has learned about these circumstances from the media
and is making every effort to get the full information. It is in the highest interests of the IOC
to get clarification on this matter."

They had previously confirmed in March that an IOC ethics commission was "working in co-
operation with the [French] prosecutor" after initial reports in French media.

Rio's former governor, Sergio Cabral, was jailed in June for 14 years for corruption and
money laundering.
He was convicted of embezzlement from public construction work contracts, including the
renovation of Rio's Maracana stadium, where the 2016 Rio Games opening and closing
ceremonies were held.

Toymaker Lego is cutting 1,400 jobs worldwide in the face of falling sales and profits.

The figure is 8% of the Danish company's 18,200-strong workforce, but it is not clear where
the jobs will go.

Lego said in its half-year results that revenue fell 5% to 14.9bn Danish krone (1.8bn,
$1.3bn), with profits down 3% to 4.4bn krone.

The company said it needed to make the job cuts as its business had become too complex and
needed a "reset".

Lego chairman Jorgen Vig Knudstorp said the group had become an "increasingly complex
organisation" following double-digit global growth in the past five years.

However, that meant it had "added complexity into the organisation which now in turn makes
it harder for us to grow further".

Brick heart

The company has been increasing sales in new markets, particularly in Asia.

Lego told the BBC: "In the US and Europe, our sales have declined although we are working
hard with our partners to regain momentum."

Lego said there was double-digit growth in China where there was still "massive upside
potential".

Mr Vig Knudstorp said: "We are disappointed by the decline in revenue in our established
markets, and we have taken steps to address this."

It has also been diversifying in recent years, most strikingly into a series of Lego movies, the
latest being Batman movies depicted by Lego figures.

Mr Knudstorp hinted the company would be concentrating harder on the brick kits, but
without going entirely back to basics: "The brick is the heart of our business and children of
all ages love it.
"We will find more opportunities to engage with kids and parents including innovative ways
to blend physical building and digital experiences, such as our successful Lego Life social
platform."

Last month Lego said Niels Christiansen, a Dane, would replace Briton Bali Padda as chief
executive. He had been in the post for just eight months.

Lego has become the world's biggest toymaker by sales, beating Play-Doh maker Hasbro and
Barbie giant Mattel, whose sales are around 1.4bn.

The company said the jobs would go by the end of this year but there would be redundancy
packages and other support.

Mr Knudstorp said: "We are very sorry to make changes which may interfere with the lives
of many of our colleagues. Unfortunately, it is essential for us to make these tough
decisions."
ARTICLE 3

North Korea nuclear crisis: Putin calls sanctions useless

Russian President Vladimir Putin has said pursuing further sanctions against North Korea is
"useless", saying "they'd rather eat grass than give up their nuclear programme".

The US said on Monday it would table a new UN resolution on tougher sanctions in the wake
of the latest test of a nuclear bomb by the North on Sunday.

Mr Putin also said that the ramping up of "military hysteria" could lead to global catastrophe.

He said diplomacy was the only answer.

China, the North's main ally, has also called for a return to negotiations.

How much leverage does China have over North Korea?

What do we know about N Korea's nuclear site?

How do you defend against North Korea?

North Korea crisis in 300 words

Meanwhile, North Korea's ambassador to the UN in Geneva, Han Tae-song, said his
country's recent "self-defence measures" were a "gift package addressed to the US".

"The US will receive more gift packages from my country as long as it relies on reckless
provocations and futile attempts to put pressure on the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic
of Korea)," Reuters news agency quoted him as saying.

What did Vladimir Putin say about sanctions?

The Russian leader was speaking at the meeting of the Brics group (Brazil, Russia, India,
China and South Africa) in Xiamen, China.

Although he condemned the North's test as "provocative", Mr Putin said: "Sanctions of any
kind would now be useless and ineffective.
"They'd rather eat grass than abandon their [nuclear weapons] programme unless they feel
secure. And what can establish security? The restoration of international law. We should
promote dialogue among all interested parties."

Citing a "humanitarian aspect", Mr Putin said millions of people would suffer under tougher
measures, adding: "Sanctions have been exhausted."

On Monday, at the United Nations in New York, US envoy Nikki Haley argued that only the
strongest sanctions would enable the problem to be resolved through diplomacy.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel backed that stance on Tuesday, saying more sanctions
were urgently needed to counter the North's "flagrant breach of international conventions".

North Korea's Han Tae-song said sanctions would never work and that his country would
"never under any circumstances put its nuclear test runs on the negotiating table".

Where are we with sanctions?

Last month, the Security Council voted unanimously to ban North Korean exports and limit
investments in the country.

Ms Haley did not spell out what additional measures might be taken, but diplomats have
suggested an oil embargo would have a crippling effect.

There could also be a ban on the North's national airline, curbs on North Koreans working
abroad, and asset freezes and travel bans on officials.

On Tuesday, South Korean Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha said after a conversation with
her Chinese counterpart that she believed Beijing "could be open to more sanctions".

Mr Putin said Russia's trade with North Korea was negligible and did not violate current
international sanctions.

How should Trump handle North Korea?

What about the military situation?

After telling the UN Security Council that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un was "begging
for war", Nikki Haley said: "War is never something the United States wants.

"We don't want it now but our country's patience is not unlimited."

In talks overnight, US President Donald Trump and South Korea's Moon Jae-in agreed in
principle to scrap a warhead weight limit on the South's missiles, which are currently capped
at 500kg (1,100lb), giving it a greater strike force against North Korea.

The South on Tuesday also carried out further live-fire exercises at sea, following missile
drills on Monday that simulated the targeting of the Punggye-ri nuclear site where North
Korea carried out its bomb test.

Seoul has said there will be more live-fire drills this month.

South Korea's Asia Business Daily quoted sources on Tuesday as saying the North had been
observed moving a rocket towards its west coast.

The rocket, which appeared to be an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), was moved
overnight to avoid surveillance, it said.

The reports followed South Korean defence ministry statements on Monday that the North
was preparing more missile tests.

The South has also said it is deploying four more launchers of the US Thaad (Terminal High-
Altitude Area Defence) missile defence system to join two already at a site in Seongju, south
of Seoul.

But Mr Putin said that "ramping up military hysteria will lead to nothing good. It could lead
to a global catastrophe. There's no other path apart from a peaceful one."

He said that given the North's range of weaponry, including long-range artillery, simply
setting up missile defence systems made no sense.

China also demanded a peaceful resolution.

China's envoy to the UN, Liu Jieyi, said: "China will never allow chaos and war on the
peninsula.

Myanmar conflict: Rohingya refugee surge hits Bangladesh

The number of Rohingya refugees crossing from Myanmar into Bangladesh has surged, the
UN says, with more than 35,000 new arrivals identified in the last 24 hours.

More than 123,000 Rohingya are now said to have fled violence in Myanmar's Rakhine state
since 25 August.

The conflict was triggered by an attack by Rohingya militants on police posts.

This sparked a military counter-offensive that has forced a flood of Rohingya civilians from
their villages.

The Rohingya are a stateless mostly Muslim ethnic minority who have faced persecution in
Myanmar (also called Burma). Many of those who have fled describe troops and Rakhine
Buddhist mobs razing their villages and killing civilians in a campaign to drive them out.

The military says it is fighting against Rohingya militants who are attacking civilians.

What sparked latest violence in Rakhine?

How fake photos fuel the conflict violence

Who will help Myanmar's Rohingya?

Independently verifying the situation on the ground is very difficult because access is
restricted, but since the police-post attacks Rohingya families have been streaming north into
Bangladesh.

The UN says it is not clear exactly when the latest refugees arrived, but said the number of
new arrivals needing food and shelter had surged dramatically.

Two main UN camps for them are now full, so people are sleeping outside or building
shelters on open ground and along roads, a spokeswoman said. Many are in dire need of food
and water.

"We fled to a hill when the shooting started. The army set fire to houses," Salim Ullah, a
farmer from Myanmar's Kyauk Pan Du village, told Reuters news agency as he arrived in
Bangladesh.

"We got on the boat at daybreak. I came with my mother, wife and two children. There were
40 people on a boat, including 25 women."
The UN's migration agency has launched an appeal for $18m (13.9m) to provide "life-saving
services" for the new arrivals.

"The security authorities need to immediately stop all forms of violence there and provide
humanitarian assistance and development aid for the short and long term," said Indonesian
Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi, who met Myanmar's de facto leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, on
Monday.

On Tuesday Ms Retno met Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who said the
Rohingya influx was a "big burden" for Bangladesh and called on world leaders to put
pressure on Myanmar to take them back.

Indonesia is one of several nations where there have been protests over the Rohingya issue.
Pakistan and Malaysia have spoken out, and the Maldives has suspended trade with
Myanmar. The Turkish president called Ms Suu Kyi to raise concerns about human rights
abuses, Turkish media said.

Chechnya and Indian-administered Kashmir have seen protests and Kyrgyzstan has
postponed an Asian Cup football qualifier with Myanmar, citing possible protests.

On Monday, a senior UN human rights official said it was time for Ms Suu Kyi to step in to
protect the Rohingya.

Ms Suu Kyi, a Nobel Peace laureate who was under house arrest for years for her pro-
democracy activism, has yet to comment on the latest violence.

She is under growing pressure to condemn the army's campaign, but faces both a powerful
military and a Burmese public largely hostile to the Rohingya.

On Tuesday Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrives in Myanmar for an official visit,
but the extent to which he will raise the issue is unclear.

Last month, his government - which wants to boost economic and military ties with Myanmar
- announced plans to deport India's 40,000 Rohingya refugees, because it says they are illegal
migrants.

Why Australian universities have upset Chinese students

In four prominent cases in recent months, Chinese students at Australian universities have
complained about teaching materials being incorrect or insulting to China.

The incidents have gained increasing attention in both nations, especially in the media, and
forced apologies or statements from the universities.

In the most recent case, a lecturer upset Chinese international students by listing Taiwan and
Hong Kong as countries in course and test materials. One classroom confrontation was
recorded and shared online.

It has generated discussion in Australia about whether Chinese students are undermining
freedom of expression on campuses - and whether the Chinese embassy has been involved in
exerting pressure on universities. Chinese authorities and media outlets have dismissed such a
concern as "smear".

Australian academics, meanwhile, have told BBC Chinese that they are concerned about
potential provocation by the media.

Why are Chinese students upset?

Last month, a video showed students at the University of Newcastle Australia complaining to
their lecturer about Taiwan being categorised as a country.

In the footage, the students are heard saying the materials make them "feel uncomfortable",
and that the lecturer should "show respect". The lecturer replies that "from my understanding,
Taiwan is a separate country".

"You don't want me to influence your opinion. At the same time, you shouldn't be influencing
my opinion," he says.

Sydney Today, a local Chinese language website, published the recording, and it quickly
became a trending topic on social media.

The University of Newcastle explained in a statement that the course materials referenced a
report by Transparency International, which had used the word "country" to describe both
countries and territories.

The university said it expected staff and students to respect cultural differences and
sensitivities, and that it was disappointed that a video had been recorded covertly and leaked.

Three other incidents have also caused controversy in recent months:

Last month, a lecturer at the University of Sydney was criticised for displaying a map that
showed Chinese-claimed territory as part of India. The lecturer later issued an apology,
saying he had inadvertently used an outdated map from the internet.
 Earlier in August, an Australian National University academic apologised after writing a
warning - in both English and Chinese - to students about cheating. Chinese media reported
that the warning had been interpreted as unfairly targeting Chinese students.

In May, Monash University suspended a lecturer over a test question which suggested that
Chinese officials told the truth only when "drunk or careless".

Did the Chinese consulate get involved?

The Australian newspaper quoted a University of Newcastle spokeswoman as saying the

university had engaged with "a range of interested stakeholders" over its incident, including
the office of the Chinese consulate-general in Sydney.

The matter exposed "the increasing influence exerted by Beijing on Australian university
campuses", the newspaper said.

Sydney Today reported that Niu Wenqi, the consulate's education counsellor, had urged the
university to "act quickly" over the incident.

Mr Niu was quoted as saying that the lecturer had "touched the 'One China' bottom line",
referring to Beijing's position that there is only one Chinese government. Chinese state
media, including the People's Daily and the Global Times, also published the quote.

What is the 'One China' policy?

The Chinese consulate-general in Sydney would not confirm Sydney Today's report to BBC
Chinese. The university also declined to comment on whether the consulate had been
involved in the matter.

Allegations of possible consulate influence have previously surfaced in the Australian media.

In June, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and Fairfax Media reported that the Chinese
embassy in Australia had "orchestrated" Chinese student organisations to hold a rally
welcoming China's Premier Li Keqiang. The report also claimed that Chinese students in
Australia were being monitored for dissident behaviour.

China's ambassador to Australia, Cheng Jingye, said the report contained "groundless
allegations" and accused it of trying to stir up "China panic".

Do Australian academics think this is a problem?

In July, Chinese international students were described as "a threat to Australian openness" in
a New York Times opinion piece by Merriden Varrall, an Australian-based East Asia expert.

Others have also suggested that expression in class has been affected by some students'
nationalist sentiments.

"Colleagues from many Australian universities have noticed this. It is a genuine concern,"
said Jonathan Benney, a Chinese studies lecturer at Monash University.
Expressing such ideas is not a problem per se, Mr Benney stressed. But he said many
academics, including himself, had encountered instances of Chinese students trying to
prevent academic staff or fellow students "from expressing critical opinions" on China.

"It is restricting both the freedom of lecturers and fellow students to say what they want," he
said.

Sow Keat Tok, deputy director of the University of Melbourne's centre for contemporary
Chinese studies, said that given the number of Chinese students studying in Australia, more
incidents were likely.

But he did not believe that Chinese authorities had a deep influence in Australian lecture
halls. The recent incidents felt to him like "knee-jerk actions" by the Chinese students
themselves, he said.

Mr Benney agreed that such sentiments were the students' "sincere beliefs".

Is anti-China sentiment on the rise in Australian campuses?

In reporting the latest incident, the Global Times accused Australian media of "demonising
the Chinese students' justified discontent".

Chinese reports also referenced recent racist messages found at the University of Sydney, the
University of Melbourne and Monash University. The messages, which were condemned by
the universities, included "kill Chinese" and "entry into the campus of Chinese students
should be strictly prohibited".

The reports also noted that a Chinese student was said to be among those injured in a baseball
bat attack at the Australia National University last month.

According to Mr Benney, some Chinese media reports "manipulated the frustration" that
international students naturally experience in an unfamiliar environment.

He said that anti-Chinese sentiment in Australia, if it existed at all, was down to "a tiny
minority... I am sure".

Mr Tok said he was confident that disputes raised by nationalist sentiments could be resolved
through class discussions.

He was also worried that the row had been "sensationalised" by social media accounts, and
that some media had acted as "provocateurs".
