Passengers complain about smoking on the plane
Twenty-three passengers on a flight from Chengdu to Beijing on Saturday received 1 Cheap Juventus Jersey ,800 yuan ($293) each as compensation for people smoking during the flight, Beijing News reported.


Flight KN5216 of China United Airlines, carrying 180 passengers, departed from Chengdu at 10 pm, after which a passenger reported someone smoking in the toilet.


The passenger, surnamed Yan Cheap Inter Milan Jersey , said the smoker's matches were confiscated by a steward who wondered why the smoke detector had not sounded an alert.

The plane was then diverted to Taiyuan, Shanxi province, due to bad weather in Beijing.


During the stopover, five other passengers were found smoking on the ramp.


A passenger surnamed Huo said there were aircraft refuellers operating near the plane at the time, so smoking there was very dangerous.


The offenders were asked by a steward to stop smoking after Huo reported their actions.


According to Huo, the police in Taiyuan suggested that all passengers should undergo another security check but the crew refused and said there was no need.


After landing at Beijing Nanyuan Airport on Sunday morning Cheap Borussia Dortmund Jersey , some passengers were angry about the aircrew's handling of the incident, and demanded the captain of the plane apologize.


After nine hours of waiting at the airport, 23 passengers were given compensation and round-trip tickets from the airline, which promised a further investigation.


The company said it will order the captain to make an apology and return the cost of the tickets for the 23 passengers, if what they said is true.


According to Huo, who recorded a conversation between the passengers and crew members at Beijing airport Cheap Bayern Munich Jersey , the captain said he knew about the smoking but, as the plane had landed safely, there was nothing more to discuss.


Aviation expert Zhang Qihuai said smoking on planes or on the ramps is dangerous and forbidden. The smoke detector also failed to alert crew members to the smoke, which was a great risk. Passengers' lives should not be risked to that extent, Zhang said.


More than 20,000 Sina micro-bloggers had viewed or commented on the matter by 11 am on Monday.


CCTV's official migro blog about the incident received about 1 Cheap Barcelona Jersey ,000 comments in two hours.


A micro-blogger going by the name of Jingwumen said the smokers should be forbidden from flying ever again, adding that their actions were just like driving drunk.


Lingjun posted that passengers had risked their lives and wasted their time waiting, for which the airline should pay more compensation, and those who smoked should be punished severely.


Some bloggers also said the passengers who smoked on the plane were to blame and it was their behavior that caused damage to the airline.


Still others blamed the security checks at Chengdu airport for not finding and confiscating the matches.


A worker at Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport said matches are hard to detect during a security check and other passengers have taken matches on planes before.

Yanqing government claims nature reserve will get 31% expansion


Beijing's Yanqing county government on Wednesday refuted recent speculations that the local national nature reserve would be replaced by 2022 Winter Olympics venues but clarified that the reserve is protected and will be expanded by 31 percent.


Songshan National Nature Reserve was located at Beijing's Haituo Mountain in Yanqing. The 2,242-meter-high Haituo Mountain has three peaks, Da Haituo Cheap Chelsea Jersey , Xiao Haituo, and San Haituo.


Speculation began when the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games Bid Committee proposed in February that Alpine skiing and sledding games would be held on Xiao Haituo if China wins the bid.


Rumors further escalated in late July as some hikers found that Da Haituo was closed.


"According to reliable sources, Beijing's only National Nature Reserve will be turned into a skiing venue, which will pose a damaging impact to the local valuable and rare ecosystem. The mountain has already closed for visits," a Weibo post that has gone viral since July 31 wrote.


In response, Zhang Suzhi Cheap Atletico Madrid Jersey , the vice county head of Yanqing, said on Wednesday that Songshan National Nature Reserve is currently adjusting its coverage in order to better protect the regional ecological environment. The reserve will be expanded by 31 percent to 6,122 hectares, the Beijing News reported.


"We planned to include the mountain areas on the east of the reserve park and exclude the northern region of the original reserve area," she said.


"After adjustment, the number of vegetation species will be increased from 20 to 29. Biological resources will be diversified and a more comprehensive ecosystem created Cheap AS Roma Jersey , which improve the reserve's conservation value," Zhang added.


She explained that the Winter Olympics venues will not be held inside the nature reserve as the government attaches great importance to environment protection, adding that environmental friendly materials will be used to build the Games facilities while measures such as controlling visitors will be applied to minimize human damage to the local environment.


Wang Tao, a scholar with the Carnegie-Tsinghua Center for Global Policy, told the Global Times that there is no doubt that the Chinese government's environmental protection awareness has increased in recent years and that could be reflected in government promises such as improving air quality.


Zhang Zhixiang, a professor at the School of Nature Conservation of Beijing Forestry University Cheap Arsenal Jersey , said the public does not need to worry that the construction of Olympic venues will affect the ecosystem because all construction projects are required to protect vegetation. Also ski facilities need both ski tracks and a forest environment, so the nearby forest will be protected.
