Nauru is banking on fields of mineral-rich smooth brown rocks about the size of a potato that lie on the sea floor around the tiny island as the possible savior of its fragile economy.
For the island nation of just 10,000 people, financial viability has been a pressing problem since the exhaustion of its rich phosphate deposits in the 1970s.
The nodules that lie 4km below the sea might be the answer. They are rich in the metals that are essential for the clean-energy industry: nickel, cobalt and manganese.

The deep-sea mining venture needed to tap the resource is being led by a Canadian company, DeepGreen, which is run by an Australian entrepreneur, Gerard Barron, and backed by mining giant Glencore and shipping company Maersck. It is in the exploration phase but results are promising and it hopes to begin mining in 2025.
For Nauru it will be just in time.

At the moment Nauru's main industry could perhaps be described as misery and suffering, courtesy of Australia's offshore detention policies. Since 2013, when the offshore detention and processing center reopened, Australia has been providing about two-thirds of Nauru's GDP of US$170 million by way of direct aid, visa fees and payments to the government for hosting the refugees.
But with hundreds of refugees sent to Nauru being resettled in the US and others moved to Australia, that industry is winding down, posing a new economic challenge for the troubled island nation.
The story of tiny Nauru, once one of the wealthiest states per capita in the world, is a tale of rapacious colonialism, epic mismanagement and avarice.
Australia, New Zealand and Britain had nearly exhausted the viable deposits of phosphate by 1968 when Australia granted Nauru sovereignty, leaving behind one of the world's worst environmental disasters.
It might look like a Pacific island paradise but, thanks to phosphate mining, its interior is a moonscape of jagged limestone pinnacles unfit for agriculture or even building.
There was talk in 1963 and again in 1970 of moving the 10,000 inhabitants to an island off Queensland, which the Nauruans opposed.
Instead, the islanders have soldiered on as one of the smallest and most geographically isolated nations.
The royalties from phosphate accumulated in a trust by the Nauruans — worth A$1.7bn at its peak — were squandered in the years following independence.
By 2002, Nauru had stopped paying its loans, which had blown out thanks to the devaluation of the Australian dollar against the US dollar. GE Capital, which was owed US$239 million on mortgaged properties, sent in the receivers.
The assets, which included the 50-storey Nauru House in Collins Street, Melbourne, the Downtowner Motel in Carlton and the Mercure Hotel in Sydney, are long gone.
A series of corrupt and incompetent governments found extravagant and spectacular ways to lose the country's wealth, including, notoriously, funding a disastrous West End musical based on the life of Leonardo da Vinci.
Nauru spent years in desperate penury as the country ran out of money. Its central bank went broke, its real estate overseas was repossessed, its planes seized from airport runways.
As the financial crisis engulfed the island, it turned to exploiting its sovereignty. During the 1990s it transformed into a money-laundering haven selling banking licenses and passports, including diplomatic passports, which confer immunity. Customers included the Russian mafia and al-Qaida.
An estimated US$70 billion in Russian mafia money went through Nauru's banks in 1998 alone.
In 2002, the US treasury designated Nauru as a money-laundering state, alongside Ukraine, and imposed tough sanctions rivalling those slapped on Iraq.
"Nauru is notorious for permitting the establishment of offshore banks with no physical presence in Nauru or in any other country," the US treasury said. "These banks maintain no banking records that Nauru or any other jurisdiction can review."
The Financial Action Task Force (FATF), a global body that works to eliminate tax havens, has been working with Nauru to walk back from its foray into the wild west of finance.
By 2004 Nauru had passed anti-money laundering and terrorist financing laws and the offshore banking sector seems to have disappeared as fast as it arrived.
As of 2012, when the FATF reviewed Nauru, there were only 59 corporations registered under Nauru law, with a number of those pending for being struck off the registry. Fewer than five corporations per year have been registered over the past five years. In the past 10 years no new trust company licenses have been issued, although 15 unit trusts have been formed under the 11 existing unit trust licenses.
However, it remains a secretive destination and learning anything about Nauru's corporate sector remains difficult. There is no corporations registry online, and Web sites advertising tax havens still list Nauru as an option.
In 2016, Westpac pulled out of providing banking on Nauru, citing concerns about compliance with international money-laundering regulations in a letter to customers. The only bank on the island is the Bendigo Bank, which opened in 2015.
A few weeks ago the finance minister, David Adeang, announced that Nauru was fully compliant with the European Commission's tax and financial security regulations, and had been removed from its gray list, although the EU has not yet published a formal statement.
Nauru's economy has also improved since 2013, thanks to one industry: refugee detention and processing for Australia.
The first Nauru offshore detention experiment began in 2001, after the Tampa crisis. This was the catalyst for Australia to set up the camps in Nauru and Papua New Guinea.
It ran until 2007. The camp was bedeviled by problems: overcrowded tents and a shortage of water were the most pressing. Slowly it was established that, overwhelmingly, those who had come by boat were not "queue jumpers" or criminals or terrorists but rather people fleeing genuine persecution and who were owed protection. Most were resettled, and mostly in Australia.
Nauru's second iteration as an isle of detention, instituted by a Labor government and carried on with unswerving determination by the current Liberal-National Coalition government, began in 2012.
The problems are undiminished. But the second Nauru detention regime, now formally replaced with a resettlement program on the island, has been kept carefully hidden. Foreign journalists — save for a handful of selected reporters — are forbidden entry to the island.
The financial cost has been enormous. Last year, Senate committee was told Australia's offshore immigration detention program had cost the federal government at least US$5 billion since 2012.
Only part of that flowed to the economy of Nauru, as many of the functions needed to keep the reprocessing centers running are provided by fly-in-fly-out Australian firms.
But there are benefits. The Nauru government is paid resettlement fees, reimbursements towards the cost of its public services, jobs for locals and increased economic activity.
That now raises the difficult question of what happens when Australia leaves.
The dependence of Nauru on Australia and its offshore detention policies is revealed in Nauru's own budget papers for 2018-19. Australia is responsible for directly providing at least two-thirds of Nauru's revenue, which last year was US$167 million. It reported a balanced budget in 2017-18, spending all but a tiny slither.
Australian aid makes up a big share: US$26 million in 2018-19, even as Australia has sought to prune its aid spending overall. This is despite the Department of Foreign Affairs' own assessments for 2016-17 that the core programs in education and health are failing to meet benchmarks.
The assessment on health slipped from amber to red.
But there are also big licks of money coming from visa resettlement fees (US$21 million), reimbursements to Nauru's department of justice and border control (US$8.2 million), and fees to the Nauru Regional Processing Center corporation (US$14 million), which provides local staff.
Australians coming and going from the island have breathed new life into Nauru Airlines, the only way to reach the island, while port charges are up and a major upgrade of the port, funded by the Asian Development Bank and Australia, is under way.
Government spending has tracked up at the same pace as revenue, leaving the island vulnerable to a sudden change in circumstance. The Nauru government knows that the boom is coming to an end.
"Uncertainty remains regarding the numbers of refugees remaining on the island and the operation of the regional processing center," the budget papers say. It is forecasting a 3 percent contraction this financial year.
In the short term, Nauru might get a bigger slice of the pie as Australian companies leave and hand over to the Nauru Regional Processing Center Corporation in October.
But after that the future is precarious.
Most of the utilities, mining and even the shops and supermarket are controlled by Nauruan state government companies that did not file financial statements in time for the budget papers, so it's hard to say what shape they are in.
Eigigu, which runs the supermarkets, hotels and shops, is in dispute over its hotel in the Marshall Islands, which is closed.
Mining of remnant phosphate deposits has slowed to a dribble. Nauru Rehabilitation Corporation (NRC), which took over mining operations in the last few years, is handing it back to Ronphos, the government-owned phosphate company, from July 1.
In 2018-19 it is budgeting on making just US$22 million from phosphate but will spend US$27.5 million mining it, the budget papers say. The deficit is being funded by a loan from the Taiwanese government and only a quarter of the new equipment needed has been purchased.
With little phosphate left, this appears to amount to shuffling of the deckchairs on the Titanic.
As for rehabilitation of the island, the progress has been glacial.
The NRC was set up after a financial settlement in 1993 by Australia of US$135 million in belated recognition of the environmental disaster it had wreaked on the island.
NRC originally had a target of rehabilitating 400 hectares at the rate of 20 hectares a year, but so far it has only rehabilitated a small area known as pit 6, which is being used as the site of the jail — and the US$135 million appears to be gone.
Meanwhile, Nauru is running out of land.
The other big earner in recent years has been fishing, netting the government US$43.14 million last financial year in fees paid by foreign-flagged vessels.
The DeepGreen undersea mining project will need to be balanced with protecting these marine resources.
It says the resource has proved very promising, with high concentrations of the mineral-rich nodules on the seafloor at a depth of 4km. It plans to begin commercial mining in 2025.
Nauru's president, Baron Waqa, is hopeful the venture will bring great benefits. DeepGreen's Gerard Barron said under the agreement with Nauru, the company will pay royalties of "tens of millions" a year and make a significant contribution to the island's GDP.
The company is already offering training and job opportunities to Naruans on its exploration voyages. Barron believes undersea mining for minerals could be as transformative for the Pacific as oil was for the Middle East.
But undersea mining is controversial. The Solwarra project off the coast of Papua New Guinea involves excavating and crushing up volcanic vents on the seafloor and then pumping the rubble to the surface. It's been opposed by local communities and environmental groups.
Barron says mining nodules has far less impact: the loose nodules are vacuumed up and pumped to the surface, with the residual water then pumped back down to avoid disturbing ocean temperatures.
In anticipation of the end of the detention center business, Australia, Taiwan, New Zealand and the Asian Development Bank have also begun paying into the Nauru Intergenerational Trust Fund, a sovereign wealth fund being managed by a board of donor representatives and Australian accounting firms.
Its proceeds, currently US$56 million, cannot be spent until it builds to a critical mass. Nauru will make contributions, depending on its income each year.
The Guardian put detailed questions to the Nauru government but it did not respond.
Warren Hsu (許華仁) sees chocolate making as creating art and performing magic. Zeng Zhi-yuan (曾志元) "talks" to his cacao beans and compares the fermenting process to devotedly caring for a child. Despite their different products and business models, the two helped put Taiwanese chocolate on the map in 2018 at the prestigious International Chocolate Awards' (ICA) World Finals when Hsu's Fu Wan Chocolate (福灣) claimed two golds, five silvers and two bronzes, while Zeng took home four golds. That year, Taiwanese chocolatiers burst through the gates with a total of 26 medals, an impressive feat given that many locals don't
Chen Zhiwu (陳志武) says that the COVID-19 crisis puts into sharp focus that we are in a new cold war, with China and the US being the two protagonists. "It's almost literally in front of us," says Chen, Director of Asia Global Institute and Chair Professor of Finance at the University of Hong Kong. Political observers were hesitant, Chen says, even up to the beginning of this year, to confirm a new cold war was underway. "But ... the coronavirus has made clear the clash in values and way of life between what China would like to pursue, and what
In Japan — where they take their cats very seriously — they call Yuki Hattori the Cat Savior. He is so popular that he saw 16,000 patients last year, and crowds regularly queue up to hear him talk about neko no kimochi (a cat's feelings), while people from all over Japan make the pilgrimage to his practice. Sometimes clients turn up from further afield. "One flew in from Iraq for a personal consultation," Hattori says, "without his cat, due to border quarantines." In Japan's rarefied world of cat doctors, the vet Hattori is very much a superstar — but now there
For tourists visiting Hualien, Taroko National Park (太魯閣國家公園) is the first order of business. But if you find yourself in the city with half a day to spare — your train back to Taipei will leave mid-afternoon, say — it's hardly worth busing out to Taroko Gorge. Instead, borrow or rent a bicycle or a scooter, or hail a cab, and set out for one of these attractions. At only one of these places is there an admission charge.

An item for knitting enthusiasts has recently been acquired by the Library as part of the papers of The Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Women's Health (ACPWH).
The matter-of-factly titled How to Make a 'Knitted Uterus' for Teaching is a pamphlet collected by the ACPWH as part of their remit to raise the standard of education and training in the field of obstetrics. Thanks to the knitted uterus, a hitherto largely mysterious vocabulary and process is illuminated in an instant. As the author states:
"We have found that parents readily understand how labor contractions work when we use a stuffed 'uterus'. By compressing the 'fundus' it is easy to illustrate the effect of labor contractions – the downward push against the baby and the upward of the pull of the cervix. In this way, effacement and dilation are readily visualised"
The Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Women's Health was a Special Interest Group of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) and their papers have been added to the CSP archive (Library reference SA/CSP), held at the Wellcome Library since the mid-1990s, as part of a large recent addition of around 150 boxes of material.
The ACPWH itself was established as The Obstetric Physiotherapists' Association, growing into the Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Women's Health by 1994 to reflect a more holistic approach to women's issues. It has since become a professional network of the CSP called Pelvic Obstetric and Gynaecological Physiotherapy, although this portion of the Association's history is not yet represented in the archive.
From the outset, the Association was determined to raise standards of obstetric care, not only among physiotherapists, but also other professionals such as perinatal nurses and midwives.
Hence the large collection of informative pamphlets and papers in the archive, of which How to make a 'Knitted Uterus' for Teaching is one. The pamphlet shows an attitude prevalent throughout the collection as a whole; a new candid approach to childbirth, an inclination to demystify the process for expectant mothers in the interest of compassion (and also, in the Association's early years, for the strengthening of a population recently devastated by war). The collection covers the post-war years up to the mid-2000s and includes photographs, posters, films and equipment alongside a considerable body of paper material.
The 'uterus' pamphlet is a good illustration of the practical nature of much of the material. Absent is any element of kitsch, the knitted uterus is intended as a means to educate, not as an object of hilarity, and the knitting instructions are appropriately straightforward:
"Cast on 48 sts. Divide evenly on three needles. Join. K2, P2 until cuff measures 2 inches" etc.
Although the use of knitting terminology ensures much of the pamphlet remains a dark and obscure mystery to me, I cannot deny a vague horror at the instruction "Insert doll's head" when looking at the accompanying images.
Should you wish to knit your very own 'uterus' for teaching or otherwise, the pamphlet (Library reference SA/CSP/R/2/4/3) may be consulted in the Library. The ACPWH papers (Library reference SA/CSP/R) are now fully catalogued in the Library catalogue.

I'll certainly be coming along to look at this! I blogged on knitted wombs on http://www.wondersandmarvels.com/2013/08/call-the-midwife-or-knit-your-own-womb.html and the National Childbirth Trust helpfully sent me their pattern. There's also a series of images of using a Cabbage Patch doll in one of the wombs, which you'll find on the discussion at http://www.knittersreview.com/forum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=true&TOPIC_ID=7544
Excellent teaching aid. Women still do not associate the cervix with the uterus think they are two separate entities! Yes really!!

BBC NEWS | Education | Parents feel excluded by children
The other day I had a conversation with Oliver that went something like this.
Me: "What did you do at nursery today?"
Oliver: "Nothing."
"Who did you see?"
"OK. What did you have for lunch?"
"Well where did you go with Mummy after nursery?"
"So you did nothing, saw nobody and went nowhere."
Of course he had a full day as always, but so often it's hard to get answers. And when you do they can be fabrications.
However, Hayley and I have happened on another great way to find out what Oliver does at nursery. This weekend he has taken to pretending to be his teacher and treating us as his pupils. The result is that we are finding out more about his days now than we have in the whole of the last term!
Yesterday I did songtime and he read me a story before announcing that it was time to watch Teletubbies on the big telly. (And there was I thinking that nursery was the one place he wouldn't be watching more TV!)
Today he made Hayley the VIP, which means she gets to ring the bell when it's tidy-up time and ride in the lift instead of walking downstairs amongst other things. I'm feeling lucky. I think it might be my turn tomorrow.

Amitabh Bachchan and Sridevi may unite on screen for the sequel of Khuda Gawah.
The 1992 film, produced by Manoj Desai, told the story of an Afghan lord caught between love and revenge.
"The script is being written for the sequel. It was one of the most loved films and we thought of bringing it back. We have given a one-liner brief idea to Mr Bachchan," Desai told PTI.
"We have got a positive feedback from him. Once the script is complete we will meet him again and approach him for this film.
"Once Mr Bachchan gives his nod for the sequel we may go and talk to Sridevi as well about the film. There will be other actors also in the film from the younger generation."
Shot in India and Afghanistan, Khuda Gawah was one of the highest-grossing films of 1992 in both countries.
Pending the commitment of both actors, shooting for the sequel will begin next year.
Bachchan made a cameo appearance in Sridevi's comeback film English Vinglish.
In 2012, the two stars were voted the most admired celebrities in Bollywood.

Do you own a small flower shop and are looking to start offering deliveries throughout your local area? Or are you a Lyft or Uber driver considering leasing a sedan for the rideshare service?

For a more comprehensive overview of the entire small business leasing process, make sure to check out The Ultimate Guide to Business Leasing.
Important Business Lease Terms
Once you have decided on the type of vehicle and the manufacturer, there are several business leasing terms you're likely to hear. The most common small business leasing terms include:
- Capitalized cost is the lease price or the amount you'll pay to lease the vehicle.
- Cap cost reductions are down payments, dealer incentives, factory rebates, or trade-in vehicles that will reduce the overall capitalized cost.
- Residual value is the vehicle's value at the end of the lease.
Key Business Lease Contract Factors to Consider
Every business is different, and there are no one-size-fits-all solutions when it comes to leasing. As a matter of fact, business leases are as diverse as the customers you serve. However, make sure you pay special attention to the following business lease contract considerations.
Lease Term
An example of how short-term leases can have higher monthly payments compared to long-term leases.
The lease term explains how long your business will keep the vehicle. Most lease terms are available for 24, 48, and 48 months. As a general rule of thumb, shorter leases are more expensive than long-term leases.
This is due to the fact the vehicle's residual value decreases at a faster rate during the first 24 months. You should also be aware of the bumper-to-bumper warranty on the vehicle and make sure the lease doesn't extend past this date.
Estimating Business Mileage
Be sure to account for natural wear-and-tear if you plan to drive this car a lot.
Prior to entering the lease, make sure you have a solid understanding of the number of allotted miles vs how many miles you expect to accumulate. Most leases start out with a 12,000 annual limit, but if you feel your business may use more than 12,000 miles in a year — it makes dollars and sense to pay for the extra mileage. Otherwise, you could be liable for the additional mileage as well as wear and tear charges at the end of the lease.
What if you expect for your business to allot significant mileage? Go with a more flexible, business-friendly open-end lease. These leases are the preferred solution for most of our commercial customers and offer the type of flexibility your business needs. Read more about open-end leases vs closed-end leases.
Residual Value of Lease
This is how much the car is worth after your lease ends.
The residual value is a car leasing term used to describe the value of the vehicle at the end of the lease. This figure also represents the amount the business expects to be able to sell it for. The residual value is directly related to the monthly payments and depreciation.
The more the vehicle depreciates, the less its residual value will be at the end of the lease. Simultaneously, if a vehicle has a high residual value at the end of the lease, your monthly payments will be lower.
Getting Started Is Easy with Carlease.com
We offer flexible leasing options and work within your budget!
Whether you're a highly informed small business lessee or if you've never considered a small business lease, the experts at Carlease.com can help. Our small business leasing experts will work to understand your unique needs. Then, we will guide you to the best small business car lease solution.

I enjoyed Robert Gromacki's The Virgin Birth, despite my many disagreements with his approach and assumptions about the inerrancy of scripture and Jesus' sinlessness. But there was one line on Page 125 that, had I been drinking something when I read it, would have produced an epic spit take.
In a chapter entitled, "Jesus Was Truly Human," Gromacki endeavors to describe, shockingly enough, Jesus' humanity. Unfortunately, Gromacki doesn't actually view Jesus as truly human in two rather large ways – first in the way Jesus was conceived and second, and more important, in the notion that Jesus could not have sinned even if he'd wanted to. Nevertheless, at the end of the chapter, Gromacki compares Adam to Jesus and comes up with quite the notion:
Contrasted with Adam, Christ's humanity had a different expression. Adam was created and began an adult existence on the very first day he lived. The human nature of Jesus was conceived within a mother's womb just like any other human being, but apart from human fertilization. Jesus experienced a fetal state, a real birth and normal development, but Adam did not. Christ had a navel; Adam had none.
Wait, what?
Now, when you think about it, this makes perfect sense. Where does the belly button come from? Of course it's the place where the umbilical cord connects to us as fetuses in the womb and provides us the nutrients from the food our mothers drink. Since Adam and Eve were never fetuses, why should they have had navels?
But the Bible doesn't say Adam had no navel; Gromacki is taking scientific knowledge and applying it to the biblical text to arrive at a conclusion about the origins of mankind. Which is the same process theistic evolutionists use – a process Gromacki would reject when applied to the scientific consensus about the genetic impossibility of the human race descending from only two people or the geological evidence opposing the notions of a 6,000-year-old earth and a single worldwide flood and supporting the idea of an evolutionary process in which humanity descended from apes. It's interesting to note that Gromacki is implicitly endorsing the idea that humanity evolved a navel.
Granted, there's a big difference between belly buttons and evolution. We have pictures of fetuses with umbilical cords, and those of us who can stomach it actually cut the cords and watch the stumps fall off and become navels. But that's not much more evidence than we have for evolution these days. We can see pictures of transitionary species, the so-called "missing links," such as Tiktaalik or the numerous human-ape hybrids discovered in Africa – even touch them if we have the right access. Yet conservative creationists continue to deny such evidence, either ignoring it entirely or shifting the goalposts such that we need one more missing link because these just aren't conclusive enough.
Similar, the Jesus Storybook Bible, which is a wonderful book that weaves the story of Jesus throughout the entire Bible, nevertheless includes a throwaway sentence I simply cannot bring myself to read to my daughters. During the story about the Tower of Babel, Sally Lloyd-Jones writes (and I'm going from memory, but this is basically right): "And that's how we got all the languages in the world."
Well, no, actually, it's not. In fact, the world's language of trade, English, is only 1,000 years old. The version of it that we can actually recognize ourselves is even younger, no more than 600 years old. In either case, we can trace the language's evolution (that word again) from Germanic and Norman origins. So Babel does not explain English, which is kind of a major exception to the notion that "all the languages in the world" come from Babel. Of course, we could say all the languages come from Babel in the same way all the species in the world came from the Big Bang. But I'm not sure literalists who argue for the historicity of Eden and Babel would appreciate the allusion.
Again, the comparison isn't entirely fair to the author. But statements like these, so firm in their surety despite the mounds of evidence God's creation has revealed against them, are ill-advised. They remind me of Augustine's famous injunction to Christians against using the Bible to defend their opinions on scientific questions they are ill-equipped to discuss:
Now, it is a disgraceful and dangerous thing for an infidel to hear a Christian, presumably giving the meaning of Holy Scripture, talking nonsense on these topics [of science]; and we should take all means to prevent such an embarrassing situation, in which people show up vast ignorance in a Christian and laugh it to scorn. The shame is not so much that an ignorant individual is derided, but that people outside the household of faith think our sacred writers held such opinions, and, to the great loss of those for whose salvation we toil, the writers of our Scripture are criticized and rejected as unlearned men. If they find a Christian mistaken in a field which they themselves know well and hear him maintaining his foolish opinions about our books, how are they going to believe those books in matters concerning the resurrection of the dead, the hope of eternal life, and the kingdom of heaven, when they think their pages are full of falsehoods and on facts which they themselves have learnt from experience and the light of reason? Reckless and incompetent expounders of Holy Scripture bring untold trouble and sorrow on their wiser brethren when they are caught in one of their mischievous false opinions and are taken to task by those who are not bound by the authority of our sacred books. For then, to defend their utterly foolish and obviously untrue statements, they will try to call upon Holy Scripture for proof and even recite from memory many passages which they think support their position, although they understand neither what they say nor the things about which they make assertion.

Fox News Channel viewers may have caught a LIVE glimpse of Greensboro on FNC with Neil Cavuto on Wednesday at 4:02pm.
My colleagues Eric White and Ken Devanny were on the heat beat trotting around Downtown G-town with a high tech laser thermometer and part of their duty today was to fulfill the call from NYC to fill :60 seconds on our Cable Uncle.
Eric did the show and tell with the laser thingy with style and grace, and then it was back to local beat about the people suffering in the heat on the city streets of Greensboro.

Iran's fairly large toy market is filled with 80% of Chinese products, leaving only 20% for domestic production.
A major problem Iranian toymakers complain about is the fact that there are no major union or association to support the sector.
Currently, entities in charge of toys are Iran Haberdashery Guild and the Institute for the Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults that supervises both production and imports, the Persian daily Forsat-e Emrooz reported.
Iranian toymakers believe that if import tariffs are raised, importers will be discouraged and Iranian toys can grab 50% of the domestic market share. Yet more than 100 containers of toys enter the country daily and the total amount of tariff they pay amounts to 50 billion rials ($1.5 million at market exchange rate) per day. This, being a source of revenue, renders the government reluctant to change regulations.
Only 10% of the foreign toys found in the market are smuggled and the rest is imported legally. Almost anyone can import toys, which is unheard of in other parts of the world.
"Some 140 toymakers are operating in the country, five brands out of which have the lion's share of the market," said Mohammad Saeed Najafi, a toy producer.
Najafi noted that an important factor behind success in this sector is using good quality plastic materials rather than recycled ones.
"The reason for the popularity of foreign toys among our children is due to the electronic technology used in them, enabling the products to talk, play music and perform other actions. In Iran, we don't have the facilities to add such features to our products since this requires government support and low-interest loans," he said.
According to Manaf Yahyapour, an official with the Institute for the Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults, the institute is trying to provide bank facilities to toymakers.
"The bulk of what the institute has done in this regard up to now has been to set up designing festivals, create sales markets, register new designs and put hologram labels on the products to ensure their originality," he said.
"In ideal situations, only 5,000 items of one model of a toy are produced in Iran. This figure in China amounts to 2 million. So we cannot really say that there is a toy industry in Iran. Industry means vast and professional investments, trained labor force, up-to-date designs, modern production and sales processes; none of which exists in the country," said Amir Hossein Salamzadeh, another official with the institute.
He also noted that the private sector can be of great help, adding that the field is a profitable one to invest in and that if things go well, there are even hopes of exporting toys to countries such as Turkey.
"Most of the toys in the market are made of secondhand and recycled materials that make them hazardous for children. They are, nevertheless, sold since they are cheap and parents can afford them," said Ashkan Hayati, sales manager of a company producing magnetic and mind games.
He believes that increasing tariff rates per se will not solve the problem and serious and consistent support to local producers is needed, since production costs are very high and producers are feeling the pressure.
"The field can be very lucrative nonetheless and countries such as China, Taiwan, Italy and Switzerland have made large investments in the field. We should not be absent from the market," he said.

Thomas Johnson: Money, money, money — automakers and wealthy families decide everything in Formula One
Interview with the American 'commercial pilot' who races for the Kazan team-champion in Russia
AG Team, a motor sport team from Tatarstan, has recently celebrated the leadership in the Russian Circuit Racing Series in Kazan. A week before the event, Realnoe Vremya sports department had invited the most unusual member of the team — 49-year-old pilot-sponsor Thomas Johnson, who in his youth raced in the United States in the analogue of Formula 3, for an interview. The complicated story of the driver's move from Florida to Kazan, the vicissitudes and intrigues of the Russian circuit, big money and the reasons for the fall of spectacularity of Formula One — read in the interview with the American racer to our publication.
''It is like taking a reptile out of the heat''
Thomas, how come you to be here, in Kazan?
My wife is from Kazan but she was living in the US, where I met her. We became boyfriend and girlfriend. Actually, my first visit here was in the summer of 2011, and I've been here at least for some amount of time every year since then.
What was your future wife doing in America that time?
She first came in the US on Work and Travel program. She met other Russian girls on the same programme, and some girls said, ''We think we wanna stay in the US.'' Actually, I think it was her decision from the beginning. She worked in the hospitality industry for larger hotels, like in New York City she worked for W, for Marriott. She was mostly in that until she started to help me with my business, which was trade. Especially if I did this business in Russia because obviously I can't speak Russian. Her family know people in Kazan and I used these contacts. Most people assume that she got the US citizenship through me. No, she did it on her own, she was a US citizen before we get married. With lawyers, nine years and all these stuff.
Usually it is women who move to the country where their husbands live, but your case is opposite – you followed your wife to Kazan. How did it happen? Did your wife make you?
I am from Florida, I met my wife in Florida, we moved to New York City for two years. Then we came back to Florida. My business is foreign trade and it depends on currencies. My wife wanted to move back to New York City, but I said, ''The ruble has crashed. You have contacts, I think we should go to Russia.'' This is how it happened. But I think my wife wants to be in New York City.
You know, I met Anvar [Anvar Tutaev, the co-pilot – editor's note] in October of last year. It was about one month before we went back to Florida. We'd already discussed, ''Ok, we are going to go back to Florida or we are going to move back to New York.'' That was the plan. Then this racing thing happened. ''Oh, I wanna go racing, I wanna try racing in Russia.'' So we are back.
I am sure that if when I was walking down the street by myself if I had a microphone, I am sure I would be talking to myself ''This is crazy, what am I doing.''
You was born in Florida, it is sunny and hot there all year round. How do you survive the weather in Russia?
All these wrinkles – they are mostly from the sun, it's terrible! (laughing) You know, it is very difficult in Russia for me. It is like taking a reptile out of the heat. But the big problem is that in the summer, which we have six months, its' hot from April to October. In the middle of the summer it is so hot, but I am ok, it doesn't bother me. But my wife hates it. She turns pink like a tomato, she doesn't like it.
So you have never lived here in Russia in winter?
I have. Twice. I was here for the whole winter for two times. I was here for two full winters. Amazingly, I am still alive. I am sure that if when I was walking down the street by myself if I had a microphone, I am sure I would be talking to myself ''This is crazy, what am I doing.''
''Then I told them – you be careful in the US''
When you decided to move back to Russia for more time, what did your relatives and friends say? Did they say ''be aware of mafia, bears, vodka''?
Most of it, it is the mafia. When Americans think of Russia, they think of the 1990s. That's all. Maybe it is so because of the Cold War. I think it is because of Hollywood movies. A Russian guy in a Hollywood movie is a gangster. So this is in their head — ''be careful, be careful''. Crazy things are now happening in the US. My friends always tell me ''be careful''. Always. But I was in Russia while in my city in Orlando we had about 3 years ago the largest killing, 50 people killed in a nightclub in Orlando. Then I told them – you be careful. The whole world is dangerous.
As I understand it, you don't really speak Russian? (the interview was conducted with the assistance of an interpreter – editor's note)
No, I'm lazy. I want to. I would love to. I don't know if I am lazy, here's the trouble. With the racing and some of the business I try to do in Europe in Russia, I start maybe at 8-9 a.m. and then you get to 4 p.m. and then I start with Canada, New York, until 11 p.m. So when am I going to do it?
So you communicate with your wife in English?
Yes. She calls me some names in Russian, I don't know what they are. When she is upset, she calls me ''zhopa'' ( laughing).
There is a custom in the sport industry — when sportsmen come to Russia, they first learn Russian swear words. Have you already learned them?
Like every-language people do this. I know some words but I am not going to say them.
Everyone I've met in Kazan, in Russia has been incredibly nice and welcoming to me, Russians and Tatars. Everyone has been so nice I can't really see the difference, but if I hear the name – I know. I would say by coincidence, it is only a coincidence really, I probably have more Tatar friends than Russian friends
Do you know anything about the Republic of Tatarstan and do you know who the Tatars are?
Yes, I do. The Mongols, the Turks, I know the whole this thing, I've read about this.
Do you see the difference between the Russians and Tatars?
I don't' know, because everyone I've met in Kazan, in Russia has been incredibly nice and welcoming to me, Russians and Tatars. Everyone has been so nice I can't really see the difference, but if I hear the name – I know. I would say by coincidence, it is only a coincidence really, I probably have more Tatar friends than Russian friends.
''If you learn this when you are young, you do not have the fear''
As far as I know, you raced in Formula 3, right?
It was in the US. At the time we called it Formula 2000. It is the equivalent back then of what Formula 3 was. I started in this but quickly went to Formula Ford, which is a smaller series. Because it was more affordable. It is called so because it was sponsored by the Ford company, we had Ford engines.
What were your results?
I was very good when I was young, from 18 to 23. My career got stopped and my parents did not tell me this until I was late 30s when I decided I was not racing any more. Once stopped, they told me. My mother never wanted me be in Formula cars. It was dangerous, especially when I started. I was getting quicker and quicker and quicker. Some business people in Orlando said, ''We should get people together to send him to IndyCar.'' My father had a good friend, and his son, a little older than me, went Indy. Then he had killed. My parents went to the funeral and they looked at each other. Every time I had a meeting, for some reason, nothing happened. But they stopped. They did not want to tell me but they stopped it. My father kept pushing touring cars, but I said, ''I don't wanna race this.'' But then I said ''I'm done.'' I was 32.
Do your parents know that you are racing here in Kazan?
Yes, they watch every race live. They get up early to watch because of time difference. They don't mind touring cars. It is much safer. But I never had such fears. I think every racer has some strange justification in the head. I know one of my father's good friend was killed in a Porsche. He was burned very badly and in hospital for about ten months, but he is still racing. It is ridiculous but when we hear about an accident, we tend to think that the car was not right. I think if you learn this when you are young, you do not have this fear. I have some friends of mine, when they were forty, made some money and got a Porsche, they said ''I think I wanna start racing''. But it is too late, you can't. It is like jumping off the top of the diving board. If you've done this since you are 10, it's ok. But the first jump when you are forty… You won't do it.
After experiencing the American level of racing and organisation, how do you feel about the level of racing in Russia? Don't you find it boring?
No. The top 10 drivers can be top 10 drivers everywhere. Usually the guys who are not in the 10 are not in the top 10 everywhere. The organisation of the Russian Circuit Racing Series is no less organised than in the US. It is the same. It corresponds to FIA, which is the European standard.
It is ridiculous but when we hear about an accident, we tend to think that the car was not right. I think if you learn this when you are young, you do not have this fear
''I wish my engineer told me 'You shut up''
How do you assess the 2018 season for AG Team?
For AG Team – great, for me – not so good. For some reason it took me a long time to understand that front-wheel drive is very different and I never raced it before. Foolishly, I tried to get my engineer to set up the car like to feel more like a rear-wheel drive. My car, out of 24 cars on the grid, mine set up different. Twenty-three are set up the same, mine – strange. I did this all the way through Kazan, four stages. In Kazan – I give up. I told Dmitry, ''You set it up, I just have to figure it out.'' Then, all of the sudden, Moscow, night, Sochi, the sixth — I don't play around with these shocks, all this craziness. So I have spent more than half of the season trying to be an engineer, which I am not. Dmitry, my engineer, he was too nice to tell me ''You're wrong''. He wanted to make me happy. He should have said, ''You're wrong, you're an idiot, stop.'' I wish he told me ''You shut up, you drive the car, I am the engineer.'' ( laughing). I've learned my lesson.
Your team is far not the richest in the racing, but you are the first, all of the sudden. It dispels the stereotype about racing that is it ''the sport of pockets''.
The results of AG Team are really impressive. You can have the proper funding, e.g. Toyota, Endless. They were in the Formula One, for I don't' know, ten years, but they gave up. They could not perform. So money is not everything. There is, I don't know what it is, but they system they put in, I think it was a well-funded team. I don't mean Anvar. Anvar knew some guys, he said we need Pavel. Anvar put these things together, in rally cross and in circuit racing. Both of these are the first full seasons for AG Team. And they won both championships. It's impossible. My friends from Europe, who are racers, and my friends from the US, they see all this, how AG Team represents itself. They say they have such high level, it is very impressive.
''I have the most fun with AG Team''
The team's plan for the next season is clear — to defend the title. But what is your personal goal? Maybe to enter the top 5?
It depends on which class I am racing. The goal, of course, like every driver in Russia has, including me because I am racing here, is to race TCR because it is the highest level, that's the goal. But it costs a lot of money. It's four times more per car. I am trying out to get American company is Russia looking for sponsorship. Getting sponsorship is not the easiest thing. If I get sponsorship, I'll race TCR. It would be very exciting, I wouldn't expect to be the top 5. If I break in the top 10 I would be happy. If I don't get money for that, I continue to race national division, it is also exciting for me because I know all the circuits now. When I came here, I didn't know any of the circuits. I think I should be top 5 in every circuit, I will be very disappointed if I am not. Because I've just started to get quicker, I figured it out. Two different goals, depending on which division.
Can you leave AG Team?
I really don't want to race for any team other than AG Team. It is like a family, really. I don't want to leave them.
Are you upset that you are not number one driver in your team? What could you say about Pavel Kalmanovich, the leader of the team?
It's impossible. Pavel is a better driver than me. But even if he was the same driver as me, it's impossible because he knows every circuit. You can't come in in the first season and win, you can't go quickly. Every circuit I get to on the first day, I look at the track map. Your race lap time should never be quicker than your qualifying time. Because of the way you do tire pressures and all that kind of things. Very often, my lap time in race number two is my quickest time of the week. That means I am still learning the track. Pavel's quickest lap time, and everyone else's who is fast, is in qualifying. They already know the circuit. Next year I have no excuse.
I have the most fun with AG Team. It is what I prefer. Of course, every driver has to look at money, unfortunately. It is not basketball – you buy your shoes and you go. If someone says, ''You know, you race for AG Team and it cost this much, or you race for this team and it cost is nothing.'' I don't think I am ever going to have this option. No one is going to ever tell me ''you can race for free''
''Bragin clearly is a top driver''
What can you say about Dmitry Bragin from TAIFMOTOSPORT?
I've been at their facility. I know Dmitry a little bit, I don't think I can have a fore conversation. He is always nice to me. I race against his drivers. Clearly, he is very impressive, he won the national division at least once, probably more than this. He is a top 5 driver in Russian TCR. He is clearly a top driver. It would be interesting to see Pavel next year in TCR. TCR might be a little more complicated for the team. There are some tricks. We will see. But Dmitry Bragin is a top pilot.
Are you considering other cities apart from Kazan? Maybe you have offers from Europe or America?
I have the most fun with AG Team. It is what I prefer. Of course, every driver has to look at money, unfortunately. It is not basketball – you buy your shoes and you go. If someone says, ''You know, you race for AG Team and it cost this much, or you race for this team and it cost is nothing.'' I don't think I am ever going to have this option. No one is going to ever tell me ''you can race for free''. I always have to bring money. So if I bring money, I want to bring it to AG Team.
In Formula One, there are pilots who earn money and pilot-sponsors. So you are sponsor, am I right?
Yeah, sheer I am old ( laughing). Gabriele Tarquini raced Formula One long time ago. He is 56. He just set the record in the world touring car, WTCR, the big one, all the top drivers. He won the first three races. He is the oldest guy who ever do it. He is the goal. He probably has no wife and no children. He sleeps with a gasoline can (laughing).
In Russia, without money even children cannot get to the motor sport, even most talented ones. What is the situation in America?
It is the same in the whole world. There are very few exceptions. Michael Schumacher was an exception. His father owned a go-car track. He wasn't a very wealthy guy but he got to race cars for free. Go-carting can also be very expensive. Lewis Hamilton is also one of the few. But if you look at most of these drivers of Formula One, Indy Car, they come from families with a lot of money and they can pay for their skill. They can have skill. But if you don't have money you can never show it. That's the problem.
Today there is more technology, which actually makes the car much easier to drive. It is just as difficult to win because everyone has a technology but the technical aspect of driving a race car is far easier today than a TCR car. It is like a go-cart. Difficult to win but easier to drive. I also think that drivers in the past were more interesting, really
''Today it is more technology, which actually makes the car much easier to drive''
Let's talk about Formula One. The races of the times of Schumacher, Coulthard, Barrichello, Mansell and Senna were less technological, but they were more interesting. What do you think about this?
Today there is more technology, which actually makes the car much easier to drive. It is just as difficult to win because everyone has a technology but the technical aspect of driving a race car is far easier today than a TCR car. It is like a go-cart. Difficult to win but easier to drive. I also think that drivers in the past were more interesting, really.
For example, even when I started in Formula Ford, it was hard to describe where transmissions are. Right now, anyone, you can get in a car and you know that up – on the right, down — on the left. No clutch. In the Formula One cars of yesterday, ordinary person could not go from third gear to second. If you put a camera on the driver's fit from 1970s and today, you can see which one is more complicated.
Do the FIA or motor sport organisers have plans to limit the technology development of the cars to give drivers the opportunity to compete, maybe you know something about this?
Unfortunately, the opposite is happening. Formula One looks like they make the rules but they do not make the rules. They are heavily influenced by the manufacturer. But the manufacturer wants to display the technologies they put in the current day cars. So, it won't become more technical for the driver. It's going to become less. Even now Formula One's rating has gone down because of the sound. They used to break the windows almost. It was exciting. But today all manufacturers produce small silent engines to make no noise, sounds like a vacuum cleaner when it goes by. That is not exciting but it is what they are selling. That's the problem.
Maybe it is because of crazy Russian pilots — Petrov, Kvyat, Sirotkin – they appear in the racing but fail to show good results. Maybe it is because of Russian mentality, the races are too technological for them?
Kvyat is a talent. I remember watching his first race with my father, we always watched Formula One together. It was in the rain. In the rain, it shows talent. Because the cars that are better they can't use it as much. It makes them more equal. Kvyat in his first Formula One race had huge pressure. It is so easy to make a mistake. He finished ninth in the rain. My father said this kid has talent. Petrov is ok, but Kvyat… I heard Kvyat will be back.
What about Sirotkin?
I don't know what to say about Sirotkin. Williams is no good this season. His teammates are not doing well either.
Racing is new, exciting, have a lot of money. I do it for three years. Then it's not new anymore. Then he begins to think, ''Gosh, I've spent how much money on this… I like boats.''
''Lance's father bought Force India formula one team. Money is very important''
On the other hand, Sirotkin is only 23 years old, but he is already a sponsor.
In Formula One you look at Sirotkin's teammate — Lance Stroll, Canadian. You know why he is in Formula One? His father is a big garment guy, multibillionaire. When Williams needs money, his father is just here as long as he is sure that his son stays in Formula One. His father bought Force India formula one team. He bought it. Lance is no problem.
What a dream. No pressure, no sponsor. Whatever. You know, pressure does a lot. It was my dad's team or a friend of my father's that I knew since before I could walk. So if I did well, great. If I didn't, there's no pressure. For the first time I felt the pressure at AG Team. Nobody put it on me. I put it on myself because if I don't finish well in the US I just let myself down. But he arrives feeling as if letting everybody down and it affects you a little bit.
Why does Russia still not have its own Formula One team? There is money, big money.
You had. You had Marusya.
Where is it today?
I don't know. I think maybe because Formula One is not so much the culture. For example, I'm just thinking like a Russian oligarch. Maybe racing is interesting to him but hockey is always going to be interesting. Maybe he buys a hockey team. Then you look at the cost of Formula One. You see many wealthy people get involved in racing, not just Formula One. Racing is new, exciting, have a lot of money. I do it for three years. Then it's not new anymore. Then he begins to think, ''Gosh, I've spent how much money on this… I like boats.'' And he switches to boats. People who have money they are switching all the time. Maybe that's it, I don't know.
Do you like other sports? We have hockey, volleyball, basketball in Kazan. Have you attended any of them?
Yes, I have been to three Rubin games and I have been to three Ak Bars games. I choose Ak Bars. It is faster, I like it. In Florida, we do have hockey. But I think most people who go to these games are from New York that retired in Florida. Because it is hockey up there. I like watching hockey. Football is a little too slow. If I watch sport other than motor sports, I probably would watch American football. Of course, I never played ( laughing).

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) – Voters lined up at polling stations across Denmark Wednesday in a general election to renew the 179-seat Folketing at the end of its four-year term.
Unlike in other European countries, far-right populists don't seem to be on the rise here, and the center-left Danish Social Democrats may come back to power after four years in opposition, albeit on a tough immigration line.
The five-party so-called red bloc that includes the Social Democrats faces a center-right blue bloc that is losing steam and is splintered into eight parties, of which three are newcomers, including two openly anti-Muslim groups.
The Social Democrats, Denmark's largest party, have "a positive feeling about this election," said Nicolai Wammen, the party's No. 2 official, while warning against calling it a done deal.
Prime Minister Lars Loekke Rasmussen's three-party coalition within the blue bloc hasn't been campaigning together, and none wants to rely on support from the anti-immigration newcomers, the Hardliner Course and New Right.
The populist Danish People's Party, which in 2015 took 21% of the vote to become the second-largest party in the country of 5.8 million, has seen its support shrinking among voters and could see it cut in half, according to polls. It had been supporting the minority government.
Polls published Wednesday has the red bloc at nearly 53 percent of the votes.
The Social Democrats have said they want to form a one-party government headed by its leader, Mette Frederiksen who is set to become the country's youngest ever prime minister. The party has said it will seek support on the right when it comes to immigration issues and on the left for matters like social welfare.
Many Danish People's Party voters have drifted to the Social Democrats, mainly because of a stricter stance on immigration policy. It's a position they already had in the 1980s and 1990s, but which they later watered down in a coalition with left-wing parties. They also have voted for several of the center-right government's laws to tighten immigration.
"There is a limit as to how many people we can take in and preserve (Denmark's) welfare state," Wammen said Monday.

12.7 miles 1,450' elevation gain
best season:
1:55 drive
An excellent long loop hike through varied terrain.
Two fords of the largest creek along the Lassen hikes provide some excitement, but be careful, flowing water can be dangerous. The crossing at the 3-mile point is probably the harder one, and gives you a chance to turn back if the water is too high.
The namesake Grassy Swale is a special treat to Pacific Crest Trail hikers more accustom to dry ridges and stiff climbs, it is lovely, green, gentle, and water-blessed.
Twin and Swan Lakes aren't
too bad either :-)

Best Diving Spot in Lauderdale-By-The-Sea
Whether you are skimming the surface or going deeper, Lauderdale-by-the Sea is the shore diving capital of South Florida. Visitors can experience the natural coral reefs and brightly colored fish by swimming 100 yards offshore--all you need is a set of fins and a mask. Check out our two favorite dives:
SS Copenhagen - On a clear day you'll spot lobsters, sea turtles, nurse sharks, and eel. For added cool factor, the SS Copenhagen is one of the only underwater archeological preserves in Florida. The steamship crashed into the coral reef in 1900, and exists only 15-30 feet below the surface, making it perfect for both snorkelers and divers.
Biorock Project - Located 700 feet offshore is an artificial reef project that utilizes two solar-buoys that speed up the growth of coral. It's the first one of its kind in the United States and has been part of an effort to preserve Florida's natural coral reefs while maintaining a diverse ecosystem.

Making blackened fish is really pretty simple. I don't know if I do it the 'right' way but it always turns out great! All you need is some fish, blackening seasoning (I use Chef Paul Prudhomme's Blackened Redfish Magic) and a skillet. Rub your fish down with a little olive oil and then sprinkle on the seasoning. Give it a good rub down and then put it into a hot skillet with some olive oil. Cook on both sides until the fish is cooked through and flaky. If you have a thick piece of fish you may want to use the oven. In this case you would let the fish sear on each side and then put the whole skillet in the oven to finish off. I served the fish on fresh baked (by Publix, not me) egg rolls, with lettuce tomato, a squeeze of lemon and homemade dill tartar sauce.
Tartar Sauce
This one you can easily adjust to taste, I used the following: 1/2 cup mayo, spoon full of sweet relish, spoon full of dill relish, one slice of onion finely chopped, 1 sprig of fresh dill and the juice of 1/2 a lemon. (Hint. If you have left over tartar sauce mix in some canned tuna for a dill tuna salad sandwich the next day)
Potato Salad
This recipe is from Southern Living 1001 Ways to Cook Southern, or as I call it the "southern bible". Unless you are feeding an army of hungry boys or are taking this to a potluck I would recommend cutting the recipe in half. It made WAY to much.
- 4 lbs potatoes (boil them about 40 minutes or until soft, cool, peel, cut into cubes)
- 3 hard boiled eggs (the recipe says 'grated', but I just chopped 'em up with a knife)
- 1 cup mayo
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup celery, finely chopped (I think it could use a little more)
- 2 Tbsp. onion, finely chopped
- 2 Tbsp. sweet relish
- 1 Tbsp. yellow mustard
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground pepper
- 1/2 lb. bacon, cooked and crumbled
Stir together all ingredients except potatoes and eggs. Add potatoes and eggs to the mayo mixture and stir. Cover and chill. Sprinkle with bacon before serving.

M83 'Oblivion' (album stream)
Published Apr 04, 2013Last month, M83's Anthony Gonzalez let us in on a bit of his upcoming Oblivion score by unveiling the title track, but you can now stream the entirety of the soundtrack ahead of its April 9 street date via Back Lot Music.
As can be expected, the score to the Tom Cruise vehicle plays with suitably cinematic sounds, from the atmospheric string swells and minimalist piano clacks on opening track "Jack's Dream," to the heart-pumping, percussive flourishes and majestic brass boom on the otherwise electro-tinged "Earth 2077," to the supremely tear-stirring synth-pop closer "Oblivion," featuring the soaring vocals of Susanne Sundfør.

Property registration in illegal colonies ordered, 50L to get relief
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Delhi on Tuesday decided to start registration of properties in 1,650 unauthorised colonies in the Capital, spelling relief for the over 50 lakh residents living in such areas.delhi Updated: Apr 01, 2015 03:21 IST
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Delhi on Tuesday decided to start registration of properties in 1,650 unauthorised colonies in the Capital, spelling relief for the over 50 lakh residents living in such areas.
Chief minister Arvind Kejriwal ordered the authorities to complete the process of fixing boundaries of these colonies using latest scientific methods. Satellite and total solution methods will be used to demarcate and fix boundaries after which the registration process will start.
"The government will seek a report on daily basis from the departments and officials concerned to monitor the boundary fixing work," said deputy CM Manish Sisodia.
Kejriwal directed the revenue department to fix the boundaries in these colonies soon.
"The government will send the maps to the respective municipal corporations for preparing the layout plans and then to the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) for change in land use. The work will be done simultaneously by the authorities so that the registration of properties is not delayed. The agencies for the demarcation of the boundaries have been identified," Sisodia added.
There are a total of 1,650 unauthorised colonies in Delhi. Colonies that came up till June 1, 2014 will be eligible for regularisation. The cut-off date for buildings is January 1, 2015.
Unauthorised colonies have been a big political issue for all parties before every Delhi election. Before the 2013 assembly elections, the Congress government had claimed that it had regularised the coloniesRecently, before the 2015 elections, the BJP-ruled central government issued a notification to regularise these colonies. Asked how the government can start registering properties in unauthorised colonies without layout plans sanctioned by civic bodies, Sisodia said it doesn't matter.
"It is the responsibility of municipal corporations to pass the layout plans. Even in the master plan, there is no mention of the requirement of layout plans for the registration of property. These are some political conventions in this regard and we have to break them. The government will register property in all irregular colonies in view of people's welfare," he added.
