- TIANJIN, a northern mega-city, has produced some of China’s wittiest comedians. It is a good thing that its 15m residents have a sense of humour. Their hometown was, at points over the past decade, the fastest-growing of China’s 31 provincial-level regions. Since the beginning of last year it has been the slowest (see chart).
- BY COINCIDENCE, two big new films feature race, voice and the telephone in America. In Spike Lee’s “BlacKkKlansmanâ€, based on a true story, a black policeman, successfully putting on his whitest-sounding voice, convinces a Ku Klux Klansman he is a supporter.

- LIBERALS are in the market for new ideas. For roughly 30 years, they ran the world. Starting in the early 1980s, free markets, globalisation and individual freedoms flourished. Liberalismâ€"in this broad classical sense, rather than the narrow American left-of-centre oneâ€"saw off communism as well as social conservatism.

- DARKNESS is falling as coal starts its long, lawless journey from the pit. The first signs are the cycle-pushing foot-soldiers, such as Ravi Kumar, a 26-year-old whose yellow shirt and grey turban are as coal-smudged as his face and hands.
- FOR the past four years senior officials from a group of leading democracies, calling themselves the “D10â€, have quietly been meeting once or twice a year to discuss how to co-ordinate strategies to advance the liberal world order.
- NOBODY likes it when a taxi takes longer than expected to arrive. But that is what is happening with self-driving cars. Building a vehicle that can handle a busy street, with cyclists, pedestrians, roadworks and emergency vehicles, is a tall order.
- YOSHIHISA AONO could be a model for Japanese executives. The offices of Cybozu, his software company, would appear staid were they in Palo Alto. But they are radical for central Tokyo, where each day waves of black-suited Stakhanovites make their way to grimly utilitarian offices.

UIDAI slams rumour-mongers, assures safety The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has condemned the spread of rumours and fear-mongering against Aadhaar over its outdated toll-free number being pre-installed in people’s mobile phones. The organisation that administers the Aadhaar project has said that by merely having a helpline number that, too, an outdated one, on a mobile/smartphone, no harm can be caused."Just by a helpline number in a mobile’s contact list the data stored on the mobile phone cannot be stolen. Therefore, there should be no panic to delete the number as no harm will be caused. Rather people may, if they so wish, update it with UIDAI’s new helpline number 1947," said the UIDAI.It added that rumours about Aadhaar database being breached are “completely false and baseless†and are rejected. “UIDAI assures that Aadhaar data remains fully safe and secure.†People should stay away from such rumours and malicious campaign by vested interests, it added. “They should also not waste their time and time of their near and dear ones by forwarding or circulating such false and baseless rumours on their WhatsApp, Twitter, Facebook , etc.â€Google has clarified on Friday that it is to be blamed for the mysterious appearance of an outdated Aadhaar helpline number in the contact lists of phones, and clarified that it wasn’t an unauthorised breach of the Android devices. The US Internet major added that the issue would be fixed over the next few weeks.“Our internal review has revealed that in 2014, the then UIDAI helpline number and the 112 distress helpline number were inadvertently coded into the SetUp wizard of the Android release given to OEMs for use in India and has remained there since. Since the numbers get listed on a user’s contact list these get transferred accordingly to the contacts on any new device,†a Google spokesperson said in a statement late Friday.“We are sorry for any concern that this might have caused, and would like to assure everyone that this is not a situation of an unauthorised access of their Android devices,†the company added.In its statement on Sunday, UIDAI said that it expects that Google, a large digital platform provider, will look into the issue which caused confusion in the minds of people against India’s credible identity system and will exercise due care so that such things are not repeated in future. How India can gain from US-China trade war NEW DELHI: With the US imposing additional 25 per cent duty on imports worth USD 34 billion from China, certain Indian products may become more competitive, CII said today.An analysis by the industry chamber revealed that India should focus on the US market for items in the categories of machinery, electrical equipment, vehicles and transport parts, chemicals, plastics and rubber products."India can focus on numerous goods for expanding its exports to the US and China markets following the hike in duties by both countries on imports from each other," CII said.Top exports from India to the US which are covered in the list of items for which tariffs have been hiked include pumps, parts of military aircraft, parts for electrodiagnostic apparatus, passenger vehicles of 1500-3000 cc, valve bodies and parts of taps, said the chamber.Exports of these items stood at over USD 50 million in 2017, according to CII, and can be increased with concerted efforts.Countries such as Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand and Malaysia have increased their exports of these products to the US in recent years, the chamber noted.Based on India's current exports to the US in these categories, products such as intermediate parts for the defence and aerospace sector, vehicles and auto parts, engineering goods, etc. have a higher potential for export, it said."Sectors like apparel and textiles, footwear, toys and games and cell phone manufacturing are becoming competitive industries in India and need to be encouraged," CII said.The chamber suggested that the trade dialogue with the US should be strategised taking into account India's competitive advantage in these products.Moreover, foreign direct investments from the US should be encouraged by boosting confidence of US firms in India's business climate, said CII, adding that this might necessitate addressing their concerns regarding non-tariff barriers in India for better long term outcomes.In the domestic industry, it stated that it is important for India to enhance productivity while adding technology to its domestic production in the identified products.CII examined 818 product lines where the US has raised tariffs for imports from China. Between 2012 and 2017, China's exports to the US have moved up the value chain with accelerated growth in high-technology items such as telecommunications equipment, automotive, cell phones, etc. Banks plan to back staff against inquiry agencies Mumbai: High-street banks are coming together to lend legal and financial support to existing as well as retired employees who find themselves in the crosshairs of the Central Bureau of Investigation and other law enforcement agencies which, many fear, have unleashed a reign of terror among bankers.The contours of the plan â€" types of cases to be covered, the extent and nature of assistance to be given, and measures to protect the reputation of people who feel they have been victimised after having acted in good faith â€" were shared with CEOs of all large Indian banks on August 1 in a communiqué by the industry body of bank managements.In the letter to bank chiefs, the Indian Banks’ Association (IBA) said that on July 27 its managing committee â€" comprising CEOs of commercial banks â€" had endorsed the move to provide legal and financial support to employees being probed by investigating agencies for decisions seemingly taken in good faith. It urged banks to seek board approval to implement a scheme to this effect.The IBA letter said, “…It was felt that there is a need to introduce a comprehensive scheme for extending legal and financial support to employees including ex-officers and also present directors of the banks covering instances where the proscriptions have been launched by the government agencies when carrying out their normal duties.†“Banks will take urgent steps to avoid arrest of staff by seeking anticipatory bail. In case of arrest, banks will take urgent steps for grant of bail,†the association said in its proposal.According to the proposal, banks will pay for all legal expenses such as court fee, advocate fee, transportation and cover other miscellaneous costs. They will also arrange for an advocate when an employee (even those who have retired) is summoned by the CBI and police for interrogation.65285706 Hyundai, Wipro in talks with DoT to set up telecom gear testing centres NEW DELHI: Hyundai Motor India and Wipro Limited are in talks with the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) to set up testing centres as the government finalises plans for mandatory local testing of telecom equipment by the end of this financial year.The South Korean automaker and the Indian information technology services firm have entered into initial discussions with the engineering wing of the DoT and have shown interest in setting up laboratories in India for testing telecom equipment, officials told ET.“New test labs are being set up. Hyundai’s representatives have come to us and the company wants to establish a telecom lab in India,†said Shakeel Ahmad, senior deputy director general, Telecommunication Engineering Centre.TEC is a Delhi-based nodal agency of the DoT which establishes standards and specifications for telecom products, services and networks.Ahmad said that Hyundai’s representatives discussed the feasibility and scope of telecom-centric testing in India with the officials of the government’s telecom engineering division. The Seoul headquartered company already operates a testing centre for motor vehicles in India, he said, and wants to expand into telecommunications.“Wipro is also interested in setting up a security lab for telecom sector,†Ahmad said.ET’s queries to Hyundai and Wipro did not elicit any response till late evening on Friday.Under new rules, the Narendra Modi-led government has mandated that multinational gear vendors such as Finnish Nokia, Swedish Ericsson, and Chinese Huawei and ZTE get their equipment locally tested and certified from March 31, 2019.At present, India has 20 designated test laboratories, most of which have recently been accredited to conduct desired checks for the safety requirement of telecom equipment. Opinion: How to end Japan's deflation? Abolish cash By Andy MukherjeeMonetary medicine in Japan is keeping the economy alive, but with nasty side effects. The search for a new cure should begin with a simple question: What if the Bank of Japan were to throw out its money-printing presses?Instead of pushing more yen into an economy that has already absorbed a three-fold increase in cheap central-bank funds in five years without any sign of the much-awaited 2 per cent inflation, maybe it’s time to abolish cash altogether. Local handset makers seek state sops to encourage production NEW DELHI: A handset lobby body has warned the government of a risk of losing Rs 10,000-15,000 crore of potential investments in mobile manufacturing, if the system of state incentives is not revived in some manner under the goods and services tax regime.In a recent letter to cabinet secretary Pradeep Kumar Sinha and Niti Aayog vice chairman Rajeev Kumar, the Indian Cellular Association (ICA) said the incentives for local manufacturing has virtually collapsed after the introduction of GST, and urged the government to “honour its commitments†to support the Make in India programme.ICA chairman Pankaj Mohindroo said the transition from VAT to GST created an unintended, but serious, issue which is hurting the image of India as a whole and state governments in particular on living up to commitments, and impacting potential investments because of lack of clarity on rules.The body termed mobile phones and components as the champion sector in ‘Make in India’, with more than 120 plants mushroomed in the last three years, encouraged by policies to boost local manufacturing. If things go as per plans under the phased manufacturing programme, some Rs 22,000-23,000 crore more of investments are expected in the next three years. Almost 90% of all handsets currently sold in India are locally manufactured, according to Counterpoint Research.Outlining the issue, the ICA said in the earlier VAT system, state governments could incentivise manufacturing under which they had powers of levy, exemption and disbursement of VAT revenue as incentives. But under GST, this is not possible since there is only one common law to be followed by both the central and state governments.To attract investments, most state governments were offering VAT reimbursements primarily linked to fixed capital investments, or reimbursement commitments for 5-7 years. Central sales tax was also usually a part of this incentive.Under GST, an SGST refund mechanism was mentioned as an alternative and successor to VAT refund. The ICA, however, said now the actual SGST payment has become nil because most of the transactions are taking place in the IGST mode and raw material or input purchases are either imports or from outside the state.Moreover, the IGST rates are further inverted in many cases â€" for example battery packs are at 28% against the final product of 12%, it said, adding: “This makes the case even worse.†10,000 jobs to be created under Ayushman Bharat NEW DELHI: At least 10,000 new jobs will be created with the implementation of the Centre's ambitious Ayushman Bharat-National Health Protection Mission (AB-NHPM), which aims to provide a cover of Rs 5 lakh per family annually to 10 crore poor families, according to a government official.Around one lakh Ayushman Mitras will be deployed at both private and government hospitals under the scheme to assist patients coming to health facilities to avail packages under the mission.The Health Ministry has signed a pact with the Skill Development Ministry for the recruitment of 1 lakh 'Ayushman Mitras'."Each empanelled hospital will have an 'Ayushman Mitra' to assist patients and will coordinate with beneficiaries and the hospital. They will run a help desk, check documents to verify eligibility and enrolment to the scheme."Around one lakh Ayushman Mitra's will be deployed at both private and government hospitals under the scheme," the official said.Also, the Union Health Ministry has launched a formal process to empanel public and private hospitals to achieve universal health coverage under the programme and as many as 20,000 private and government hospitals have been linked under the scheme, the official said.The Centre is simultaneously carrying out beneficiary identification and under the process 80 per cent of beneficiaries, based on the Socio Economic Caste Census (SECC) data in the rural and more than 60 per cent in urban areas, have been identified.Announced in the 2018 Budget, the AB-NHPM was touted as the 'world's largest government funded health care scheme'.Also, all beneficiaries will be given letters having QR codes which will be scanned and a demographic authentication conducted for identification and to verify his or her eligibility to avail benefits under the scheme.Further, the government recently clarified that NABH is not mandatory for hospitals to get empanelled under the scheme.Also, the basic empanelment criteria allows empanelment of a hospital with a minimum of 10 beds, with the flexibility provided to the states to further relax this if required. - The new campus â€" 2-million sq ft facility with a capacity for over 30,000 workers â€" is being built at Kodathi on Sarjapur Road, around six km from its present headquarters.
