Its seems that Mat Rempit does not comfined to only Malaysia, the Mat rempit in China are more scary!

They rob in the face of the public and they even brutally attack their victims even women are not spared.

Guangzhou Police had enough of this rampant behaviour and decide to do a massive crackdown on the so called "Flying Thieves" from Guangzhou, China.

Watch this video below, supposingly taken by Guangzhao police which doing a stakeout on these Flying thieves

Guangzhou, China’s third largest city just a few hours north of Hong Kong, is the last major city to do away with motorbikes, effective January 1, 2007, in a move aimed at tackling pollution, traffic congestion and, more seriously, the high levels of street crime for which Guangzhou and a small number of its estimated 100,000 motorbike drivers are nationally known.

Ask almost anyone in China and they’ll tell you a story they’ve heard about someone who was robbed or worse near Guangzhou’s central train station, where most of the criminal motorbike drivers tend to hang out.

Uploaded to Sina.com’s blog page today is a series of video clips shot across the street from and around that train station. Footage seems to have been shot by police themselves, was uploaded by a user calling herself Feever, and shows several drive-by robberies in action, a mid-freeway chase halfway through, renegade motorbikers resisting arrest and how municipal police work to catch them.

132 millions Chinese netizens online

China has the second lasrgest internet community after USA, at 132 millions the numbers of netizens online far exceeded the numbers of total population for alot of small countries.

Growing together with the numbers of online chinese netizens is the amount of businesses that will gain from having an online presences in China.

China’s internet population increased by almost one-third during 2006, reinforcing the country’s position as one of the most powerful internet economies in the world.

The total number of people using the internet in China has risen to 132 million, according to state news agency Xinhua. The number of people accessing the web on high-speed broadband connections also rose rapidly to 52 million.

Such figures indicate 30% growth in the number of web users in just 12 months in the nation of more than 1.3 billion people.

China has the second-largest population of net users in the world after the US, which has 207 million citizens online. The growth has been driven by the country’s booming economy, as well as the huge number of internet cafes that have made the web popular among ordinary Chinese people.

There are more than a billion internet users around the world, dominated by the US and Europe, which has 308 million users across nearly 50 countries. But while online growth in the west is beginning to tail off, the speed of development in countries such as China and India is increasing.

Despite such positive growth there are still widespread concerns about state censorship of the internet in China. The government operates restrictions on websites that can be accessed from inside the country, and has clamped down on political dissidents using the internet to communicate with each other.

Although human rights campaigners continue to demonstrate over these constraints, powerful internet corporations are latching on to China’s rapid growth. Controversy erupted this year when Google launched a censored version of its web search index for people inside China’s “great firewall”.

Extinction of baiji, Lipotes vexillifer Chinese River Dolphin from Yangtze River

Enviromental issues is now considered as the top threats to China, they finnaly realised that if they dont do anything about the enviroment they will not have a country to live in anymore.

The latest victim is the fresh river dolphin or baiji, lipotes vexllifer, which were entirely wiped out from the Yangtze river.

Robert L. Pitman has spent 30 years studying the world’s whales, dolphins and other aquatic mammals.

He returned to San Deigo, Calif., last week after a fruitless six-week expedition in which teams of five observers on two vessels scoured the Yangtze River from the Three Gorges Dam to Shanghai, seeking the last members of the rarest cetacean species of all, a white, nearly blind dolphin called the baiji, Lipotes vexillifer.

The dolphin is now considered, at best, “functionally extinct.” Dr. Pitman wrote this note in response to a reporter’s question about the broader implications of this, the first apparent extinction of a cetacean in modern times.

Locally, the Yangtze River is in serious trouble; the canary in the coal mine is dead. In addition to baiji, the Yangtze paddlefish is (was) probably the largest freshwater fish in the world (at least 21 feet), and it hasn’t been seen since 2003; the huge Yangtze sturgeon breeds only in tanks now because it has no natural habitat (a very large dam stands between it and its breeding grounds).

The whole river ecosystem is going down the tubes in the name of rampant economic development. There is a huge environmental debt accruing on the Yangtze, and baiji was perhaps just the first installment.

The upcoming Beijing Olympics games actually play a huge role on why Chinese government suddenly put such emphasize on this matter.

BEIJING, Dec. 29 (AP) — A Beijing court has ordered the popular Chinese Web portal Sohu.com to pay $140,000 in damages for distributing Hollywood movies online without permission, the movie industry’s trade group said Friday.

A subsidiary of Sohu.com must also publish an acknowledgment of wrongdoing, the Motion Picture Association said.

A Sohu spokeswoman, Zhang Xin, said the company was aware of the ruling but had no comment.

China is regarded as the world’s leading source of illegally copied movies, software and other goods, despite repeated government promises to stamp out the underground industry. The Motion Picture Association blames piracy in China for costing studios in the United States $244 million in lost box office revenues last year.
