　　「形勢是不斷發展的，儲存倉必須與時俱進」，這是老生常談的道理。但在我們澳門特區，過去都是說說而已，亦即是沒有將之當真，並付諸實行，不過似乎也沒有甚麼「不良後果」，而且更無須被問責。不過，以後可能「沒有這支歌仔唱」了，因為最近透露出的信息，似乎是與以往有所不同，出現了必須適應形勢發展，在求穩中進行改革，與時俱進的壓力和緊迫感。　　其一、是國家主席習近平在會見赴京述職的特首崔世安時，除了是「例牌」的高度肯定澳門特區、特首崔世安和特區政府的成就之外，也委婉地指出了澳門特區工作的不足之處，並希望特首崔世安及特區政府能夠盡快糾舉。實際上，習近平主席指出，澳門要強調的主要還是如何長治久安，要做到這點就要居安思危，謀劃長遠。習近平稱澳門一直較快持續發展，但在發展過程中一些問題也在不斷顯現，要怎樣能夠不斷妥善解決這些問題，並在這些年快速發展的基礎上求實創新，比如說如何繼續發展適度經濟多元，就要求繼續改善優化澳門經濟發展結構。而要實現澳門持續發展，就需要特區政府和澳門社會各界繼續努力。　　雖然與習主席對香港特首梁振英的要求更為嚴格的「橫向」相比，似是較為緩和些，但與過去江澤民、胡錦濤對澳門特區的工作只是說好不提差距的「直向」相比，就呈現了微妙的差異。在任事較真，就職僅是一年就推出十五大類，六十個項目及三百多項具體措施的重大改革戰略的習近平的面前，過去的只講成績不提差距的做法，「只求無錯，不求有功」，「只講維穩，不求改革」的思維方式及實際做法，恐怕已經難以跟上以習近平為核心的新一屆中央政府的思路及要求。因而中央對澳門特區及特區政府也就有著更高的要求，必須「成績說夠，差距講透」，不能以成績來掩蓋差距，更不能對不足之處「側側膊，唔多覺」。　　其二、是國務院港澳辦主任王光亞在分別會見港澳特首梁振英、崔世安時，都宣佈中央已經決定把行政長官述職規範化，今後港澳兩位特首到北京向中央領導人述職的時間規範於每年十二月十九日之前完成，方便澳門特首在澳門主持回歸紀念日活動。而述職規範化的另一重要內容，是要求兩位特首「查找不足」及訂出來年工作報告。事後王光亞對媒體關於「過去比較多說做了哪些成績，現在亦要求他們要轉達不足，以及新一年有甚麼新計劃，也要匯報貫徹落實基本法方面，取得哪些進展及存在哪些問題。」顯然是要求港澳兩特首在「成績說夠」的同時，更要「差距講透」，亦即是必須進行「自我批評」。　其三、是即將卸任澳門中聯辦主任的白志健，在其題為《凝心聚力再寫新華章》的澳門回歸週年紀念文章中，既高度肯定了澳門回歸十四年來尤其是過去一年的各項成就，包括勇於應對困難和挑戰，積極緩解居民生活壓力；發展步子堅實有力，呈現出許多新的亮點；民主政治穩步推進，社會管理水平不斷提高等，並熱情讚揚行政長官和特區政府團結帶領廣大澳門同胞，務實進取，銳意創新，創造了經濟持續發展、社會事業全面進步、居民生活不斷改善、社會總體和諧穩定的可喜成就，澳門「一國兩制」實踐取得了巨大成功，更頗為具體且又深刻地指出了特區工作迷你倉最平一些不足之處，可說是「一針見血」地提出了澳門所存在的各種深層次問題，並提出了「要牢牢把握發展這一主題」、「認真應對各種困難和挑戰」、「努力夯實未來發展的制度基礎」，和「始終堅持愛國愛澳的核心價值觀」等四項改善建議。其中一些內容，還是頗為到位的，比如加快建設「一個中心」、「一個平臺」，實現澳門可持續發展；著力解決發展中的突出問題，在穩定主導?業的基礎上，大力推動非博彩旅遊、會展、文創、中醫藥等新興?業的發展，培育支撐經濟發展的新增長點，堅定不移地走適度多元發展道路；又如要始終保持憂患意識，時刻做好應對各種困難和挑戰的准備；再如加緊完善與基本法實施相關的制度和機制，使社會各界更加自覺地處理好「一國」與「兩制」的關系，確保中央事權和特區高度自治權的有效行使；切實加強立法統籌，增進行政與立法的良性互動，加快推進重大立法，深化特區的法制建設；……等。　　「驕傲使人落後，虛心使人進步」。只有進行批評和自我批評，查找不足並紮實予以改進，才能進步。目前澳門特區及特區政府對中央屢次強調「居安思危」，似乎是「言者淳淳，聽者渺渺」，幾乎是當作「耳邊風」，盲目樂觀於眼前的賭收持續增長，而忽略博彩業一支獨大的脆弱性和危害性。在習近平「居安思危」的黃鐘雷鳴之下，特區政府及其經濟範疇的「當家人」應當清醒了，在審批路�新的大型酒店計劃時，必須抓緊並督促其落實的「非博彩旅遊元素」的同時，嚴控賭檯的增長。另外，在二零一五年檢討賭牌政策時，也須嚴肅掂量一下，增發賭牌的訴求，是否與中央的要求相悖？　　中央向澳門特區提出「經濟適度多元發展」及「世界旅遊休閑中心」、「中國——葡語國家經貿合作平臺」的三大經濟發展定位。但到目前為主，只有「中國——葡語國家經貿合作平臺」因為是「一國」的國家行為，在外交部和商務主導下，形成了嚴謹的制度，每隔三年就舉行一次部長級會議，並陸續提出系列配合計劃，還在澳門設立了秘書處，既有制度，也有規劃，亦有機構。　　但屬於「兩制」範疇亦即特區行為的「經濟適度多元發展」、「世界旅遊休閑中心」，因為是澳門特區「高度自治」事務，中央不便「插手」，結果就未能像「中國——葡語國家經貿平臺」那樣，建立制度，制定計劃及設置機構。雖然有高喊口號，實際上都是「抓而不緊，等於不抓」。　　實際上，直到如今，仍未看到特區政府就「經濟適度多元發展」及「世界旅遊休閑中心」提出規劃性、主導性的文件，也沒有設置主導的機構，更沒有時間表，任由涉及的幾個政府機構如經濟、旅遊、工務等「各自為戰」、「多中心等於無中心」，不但是未能作出協調，反而是各扯後腿。　　倘明年習主席會見崔世安，由於可能已經當選連任，並將在幾日後宣誓就職。按照「首任熟悉情況，次任大幹快上」的國際慣例，而且因為屆時已經建立了述職的規範制度，習主席或許會提問，澳門特區在落實「經濟適度多元發展」及「世界旅遊休閑中心」、「中國——葡語國家經貿合作平臺」這三大經濟發展定位的進度，就必須拿出執行落實的規劃性、主導性文件，而不是「交白卷」了。迷你倉

Philips Automotive launched its 100th anniversary celebration earlier this month at the 2013 Shanghai Automechanika, the world's second-largest auto-parts exhibition.迷你倉The company has much to applaud, looking back on a century of innovation that made it a supplier of vehicle lighting products for one-third of the cars in the world. Looking forward, the company sees its future in China, where it currently operates two plants."By 2016, 100 million cars are expected to be produced globally every year, and nearly 30 percent of them will come from China," Dominiek Plancke, CEO of BG Automotive at Philips Lighting, said at the exhibition. "The majority of products displayed here today are developed based on local needs."New products at the exhibit offered a vision of how the company plans to meet the challenge of providing safer, more stylish and more environmentally friendly solutions in a rapidly changing world.For example, Philips WeatherVision is designed to help drivers through murky conditions, like China's smog, by generating a high penetration yellow beam to increase visibility to oncoming traffic and, at the same time, reduce glare. Philips said its research shows that increased glare from headlights is the main reason why motorists feel eight times more uncomfortable driving in rain, fog and snow than they do in darkness.Also on display was the Philips WhiteVision, which can provide 40 percent more light on the road and 20 percent more white light than a standard lamp. The lamp comes with a blue top coating that allows stylish upgrades."Chinese consumers are looking for very bright and white light," said Dimitri Jallade, head of marketing and strategy and vice president of BG Automotive at Philips Lighting. "And they are willing to pay extra for different bluish light."Aiming to bring the personalization of car lamps to a new level is Philips ColorVision, which employs a special coating that enables a colored car bulb to illuminate the lamp with a chosen shade, while projecting pure white light forward to ensure the safety of other road users."And in 2015, the first full LED headlight in China will be produced by Philips, in conjunction with a Chinese manufacturer," Jallade said of the most popular energy-saving lighting technology in Asia, particularly among premium carmakers.Philips Automotive holds an undisputable No. 1 position in supplying lighting products to original equipment manufacturers in China, said Plancke.Does the company's advantage stem from the fact that China, lacking its own vehicle lighting standard, has adopted the European standard? Plancke shrugged and said, in the end, all that matters is road safety, not which country develops a standard.Some of the requirements are quite universal. For example, a headlight should generate amini storagebeam that doesn't cause glare for other motorists, he said."Philips is working very closely with Chinese authorities on the standardization issue," he added.After-sales marketThe original equipment manufacturing market is not the single focus of Philips Automotive. Since the beginning of this year, the company has been rolling out an authorized retail network for the after-sales market, which it believes will be growing exponentially along with car numbers.Jallade said 80 percent of replacement vehicle lights are bought after the original ones fail or break. To address the urgent need for a replacement, consumers will either go straightaway to a physical shop or go online for help.Selling lamps through the Internet, which Philips plans to do as a complement to its traditional retail channels in China, can be very challenging because it's quite hard to demonstrate the brightness of a product online."There are two segments of car light consumers: the ones who really have experience and confidence in replacing the bulbs themselves, and those who want advice and want it done for them," said Plancke. "The first group can indeed go online to buy, while the second group is going to be informed online first and advised to go to a shop later."The real challenge for Philips is educating people in sales channels to ensure that consumers get the right advice on which replacement bulbs to buy for their cars, he added.Most Chinese consumers probably associate the name of Philips with consumer home appliances. That narrow vision doesn't seem to be weighing on the minds of Plancke and Jallade too much."We can leverage our credentials of being a major supplier to automakers," said Jallade. "And our brand will be built not only by the lighting business, but also by other products that are relevant to people in the automotive space."The Philips Automotive Driving Recorder and the GoPure Compact Range Automotive Clean Air System made their China debuts during the Shanghai Automechanika show.Featuring instant collision detection and file-saving protection that can ensure the accuracy of emergency video and prevent re-writing, the recorder can provide testimony for drivers if they are caught up in disputable accidents, which happen a lot in China nowadays.The portable air purifier is a timely response to growing concerns about poor air quality in China. Designed with a unique three-layer filtering process, the purifier is said to be engineered to a medical grade, capable of cleaning up cabin air within 10 minutes.The two solutions, examples of resource-sharing among diverse Philips-branded businesses that include healthcare and consumer products, embody the principle that Philips Automotive is always ready to keep up with changing times and the challenges of the new century.self storage

Discounts given by online merchants are the main draw[SINGAPORE] Black Friday and Cyber Monday may be US sales events, but that has not stopped them from creating waves in Singapore's shopping scene.儲存 In fact, these are the busiest days of the year for local online shopping and shipping service provider vPost, said its senior vice-president for eCommerce, Marcelo Wesseler. The company does not provide details on sales volumes; however, it saw an increase in unique visitors by more than 140 per cent on those two days. Its recently established Omigo.com shopping site, which currently stocks about 7,000 consumer electronics, toys and baby products from the US and Singapore merchants, recorded a 127 per cent jump in transactions in the week leading to Black Friday compared to the week before. The key attraction for local shoppers is the discounts given by online merchants, which range from 10 to 30 per cent, said Mr Wesseler. While the sale events are well-known to Singaporean shoppers, he said that a number of e-commerce firms here are still not aware of them or their effect. One local merchant that has been surprised by the influence of Black Friday is LaPrendo.com, which sells luxury goods to a largely local clientele. The start of its end-of-season sale, which coincided with Black Friday, saw a four-fold jump in revenue compared to the company's normal daily revenue. Its director Shu-Yi Yeo said that the company is considering tapping the sales event in the future not just for its business in Singapore, but also in the Middle East. As for Cyber Monday, local shoppers making online purchases with PayPal were whipping up a rate of 10 transactions per minute last year. (The company was not able to provide local 2013 numbers at the time of writing.) In fact, this was the busiest day for Singapore shoppers who bought from overseas websites using PayPal during the October-December period in 2012, said Lawrence Chan, the company's vice-president for Asia Pacific Merchant Services and general manager for South-east Asia and India. He added that PayPal saw a 21 per cent increase in Black Friday sales from US merchants to Singapore shoppers last year, compared to the year before. For businesses that missed out on e-commerce opportunities during these two events, there is still the rest of December to look forward to. Last year, local PayPal merchants fulfilled orders from an international audien迷你倉e at a rate of 11 transactions per minute on Dec 27. Between October and December last year, they reaped a 32 per cent year-on-year increase in sales volumes, recording growth particularly from buyers in China, Hong Kong, Australia, Malaysia and Great Britain. The top categories for Singapore merchants experiencing high year-on-year growth were travel, fashion and software. Singaporeans are also increasingly buying toys, baby products, supplements and beauty products from both local and overseas sites throughout the year, observed Mr Wesseler. Also on the rise is the use of mobile phones to do online shopping. According to PayPal, the volume of mobile payments it processed globally last year grew more than three times to US$14 billion. It expects this to further increase to US$20 billion this year. In Singapore, a study carried out by research firm Nielsen from March to May 2013 found that 31 per cent of local consumers used their mobile devices to shop online, compared to 24 per cent in 2012. For e-commerce sites such as vPost, Omigo.com and LaPrendo.com, mobile phone shoppers account for 40 per cent of their online traffic. "In the mornings and evenings, we see very high mobile traffic as consumers surf while waiting for their transportation or on their journey to or from the office. However, purchases are made largely using the desktop or tablet during lunch breaks or late in the evening. Although we see an increase in mobile phone payments, they make up under 10 per cent of our total payment volume," said Mr Wesseler. Mobile payment also allows for self-service especially during a sale or in a crowded store, added Ms Yeo. Some of her customers go into her retail stores to check out the products, and then purchase them with their mobile phones to skip the queue at the cashier. At times, they use the phones to enjoy an online promotion code. She noted that shoppers typically use the mobile phone for single-item purchases. For multiple items, they prefer the desktop as the larger screen offers them the ease of making comparisons between products. "Adopting a mobile mindset is now a critical component for stores to capture customers who focus on price and simplicity. For example, no-line payment options and tablet point-of-sale check-out will become more important than ever to draw customers," said Mr Chan. PayPal expects Singapore's online commerce market to reach S$4.4billion by 2015.儲存倉

本報駐法國特派特約記者 姚 蒙“轉眼間，迷你倉慶典成為悲劇”，法國當地時間20日，中國富豪郝琳正式購買一座法國葡萄酒莊後，莊園主人格雷戈瓦邀請郝琳及其兒子、翻譯共同登上直升機，從空中欣賞酒莊。不料飛機一去不回，最終被發現墜毀，郝琳12歲兒子的尸體被找到，而格雷戈瓦、郝琳及其翻譯均被認為已遇難。法新社稱，郝琳的妻子在最後一刻沒有登上飛機，免于災禍。目前，法國搜救人員正全力尋找失蹤人員，中國駐法國使館也已派人前往出事地點，參與處理此事。據法新社報道，19日，46歲的郝琳代表其公司、雲南柏聯集團舉行簽字儀式，購買拉雷維埃城堡酒莊。20日上午，酒莊舉行新聞發佈會，許多來賓及媒體人士出席。當天下午，原酒莊莊主格雷戈瓦向其工作班子介紹新莊主，並舉行晚宴。時近傍晚，格雷戈瓦興致很高，邀請郝琳夫婦與他們的孩子乘坐直升機觀賞夕陽、俯瞰酒莊。據在場的法新社攝影記者稱，格雷戈瓦起飛前仔細檢查了飛機設備和起飛程序，他坐在駕駛座、郝琳坐在他身邊，後座是郝琳的兒子與翻譯。郝琳的夫人劉湘雲本來也要登機，但最後表示有點害怕而留在地面。隨後直升機升空，轉圈後消失。20多分鐘後，飛機還沒有返回城堡，在場人士開始焦慮，馬上聯繫消防急救人員。不久後，消防隊一架直升機開始搜救，法國憲兵隊大型直升機隨後也參加行動。消防隊與憲兵隊還設立指揮部，動員100多人進行大規模搜救。直到有目擊者電話報警，大家才知道直升機墜入了城堡附近的多爾多涅河，搜救人員出動救生艇與蛙人下水搜尋。法國《西南日報》引述目擊事故發生的當地一位趕鴨人的話稱，當時飛機飛行非常低，“可能距離河面只有10到15米，這很奇怪”，“之後我就聽到震耳欲聾的墜機聲，河面濺起水花，兩個人在掙扎”。20日晚，郝琳兒子的尸體被找到。拉雷維埃城堡酒莊位於法國波爾多地區拉雷維埃村，酒莊城堡于1577年建在公元8世紀查理曼大帝的一個要塞廢墟上，此後經19世紀著名建築師翻修，是該地區出名的旅遊點、同時作為特色酒店也接待客人。該酒莊葡萄園面積達65公頃，還有3公頃地下酒窖。據波爾多酒業聯合會指出，此次購買行動是中國人在當地最大的一次投資行動，數額達到3000萬歐元，由此引起當地政府、媒體等的廣泛關注。據英國廣播公司（BBC）22日報道，郝mini storage擔任總裁、其妻子劉湘雲擔任董事長的柏聯集團是雲南省知名企業，主要從事房地產開發、旅遊、百貨、酒店和普洱茶園經營。收購拉雷維埃酒莊後，柏聯集團除了繼續運營釀酒業務外，還將把城堡轉型成高端品茶品酒中心，在酒莊附近建設高檔酒店。酒莊所屬的利柏納市市長布依松在20日的慶典上表示，普洱茶與波爾多美酒的結合是一件大好事。香港電台21日報道稱，郝琳及其兒子為香港公民。21日晨，中國駐法國大使館領事部主任李平公參率工作組乘首班列車抵達波爾多，立即與當地政府、警方負責人會面，聽取相關情況介紹。法新社22日報道稱，格雷戈瓦、郝琳及其翻譯仍下落不明，但他們生還的希望渺茫。經過21日晚暫停搜救後，潛水員再次進入冰冷的多爾多涅河，幾乎在毫無光亮的狀況下用手摸索檢查每個地方。警方稱，湍急的水流使搜尋工作進展艱難。報道稱，22日，驗尸官將對郝琳兒子的尸體進行檢驗，但確定飛機墜毀的原因，可能需要幾周的時間。而更令媒體唏噓的是“莊園魔咒”的說法。法新社稱，該城堡上一位主人讓-勒潘斯也是因飛機事故去世：2002年2月，這位66歲的富翁乘坐雙引擎塞斯納私人飛機失事，與駕駛員一起遇難。隨後的2003年，格雷戈瓦購下了拉雷維埃城堡酒莊。此次新舊城堡主人又同時遇難，令人很難想象。波爾多地區是法國的名酒產區，一共擁有大大小小8000多個酒莊。目前中國投資者已經購入了幾十個酒莊，但檔次、規模都不大，大都在1000萬歐元左右。此次的拉雷維埃酒莊被認為是中國人投資的最大規模酒莊。香港《南華早報》22日刊文指出，越來越多的中國資金進入法國葡萄園，在當地引發對立意見，法國當局甚至警告中國資金的湧入“存在洗錢嫌疑”。從2009年至2012年，僅在波爾多地區，被中國投資者購買的莊園數量已經從兩個增長到25個，現在則為50個。批評聲音認為，葡萄酒莊應該掌握在法國人手中，支持者則歡迎外國投資進入該地，重建當地的基礎設施。文章引述波爾多地區葡萄酒業記者的話稱，只要再有5—10個葡萄酒莊被賣給中國投資者，中國人就將超過比利時人，成為波爾多地區擁有酒莊數量最多的外國人。不過，據一位已經在波爾多地區投資的中國酒莊主告訴《環球時報》記者，因為許多酒莊是在虧損情況下出售的，購買酒莊後的管理經營是一個新的挑戰。▲self storage

Source: American News, Aberdeen, S.迷你倉D.Dec. 22--Technology is helping the Brown County Director of Equalization Office save some time and money.Property owners in the county can now have their assessments sent their way via email.Mary Worlie, director of equalization, said Brown County is the first South Dakota county to offer the voluntary service. Those who sign up for it will not get assessment cards mailed to them, which will save Worlie's office money.One thing property owners need to note while registering to get emailed assessments is that they will have to include any names under which they have land or property listed. That means any names listed on past assessments or tax bills, she said. Using her name as an example, she said she would include Mary Worlie, Marie E. Worlie, Worlie Auction and Worlie Farms.The assessments can be sent to more than one person's email address, if needed, she said.Assessments have to be sent out annually by March 1. In early February, she said, the office will likely send an email blast listing all properties for which assessments will be going out via email, she said. But values likely won't be finalized by then, she said, so they will be sent out later in the month.The email option is just that -- an option, she said. N迷你倉西貢body is required to use it."This is a work in progress," Worlie said, noting that it might take some fine-tuning.She said the equalization office can track addresses and make phone calls to keep residents from abusing the system by requesting another's assessments.To sign up to receive assessments by email, go to the county website at brown.sd.us and click on "Departments" on the left side of the page. Then, click on the "Equalization (County Assessor)" link.A variety of information about property in Brown County is available online through a service called Beacon. The website -- beacon.schneidercorp.com -- lists some information for free like the owner of property at a certain address and its value. More detailed information, though requires a subscription.The Beacon site pays for itself via revenue from subscriptions, which cost $300 a year, Worlie said. There's also a sign-up fee of $25. There are 30 to 40 Beacon subscriptions, she said.Agricultural and commercial sale information from recent years is also available for free on the Beacon site, Worlie said.Follow @ScottReports on Twitter.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the American News (Aberdeen, S.D.)
