A |     为深化安全生产治本攻坚三年行动，严厉打击非法组织生产等违法违规行为，近日，兴城市安委会办公室及时印发《关于进一步强化非煤矿山安全监管工作的通知》，对辖区内长期停产停建矿山安全监管工作提出具体要求。         《通知》按照“三管三必须”要求，对矿山企业、乡（镇）政府、无主和废弃矿山、兴城市应急局、兴城市公安局等部门或单位监管职责进行明确，将兴城全市即将关闭退出矿、停产矿、停建矿等所有类型的矿山纳入安全监管范围，切实解决安全监管责任不明确和“谁都监管、谁都不负责任”等问题。         相关乡（镇）、有关部门要加大日常安全教育力度，提高矿井周边群众安全保护意识，防止出现人员破坏密闭设施冒险进入行为。对符合停产停业整顿、断电、取缔关闭等条件的要依法采取行政强制性措施，切实解决非煤矿山安全监管执法“不愿管”“不敢管”“宽松软虚”等问题。

China and Arab states have launched a five-year action plan to combat drought, desertification and land degradation, which expand their cooperation beyond traditional desertification control to technological innovation in areas such as grassland conservation, watershed management and wetland protection, during a UN conference in combating desertification, the Global Times learned from China's National Forestry and Grassland Administration (NFGA) on Sunday.
The plan was launched at a meeting on the sidelines of the 17th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (COP17), now underway in Ulan Bator, Mongolia. 
Under the action plan, China and Arab states will deepen practical cooperation over the next five years in key areas including desertification and degraded land restoration, sand and dust storm monitoring and early warning, grassland management, biodiversity conservation, and wetland protection and restoration, according to a press release sent to the Global Times by the NFGA.
The two sides will step up technological innovation and the application of research outcomes by developing platforms for sharing technologies, data and research results, conducting interdisciplinary research, and developing technologies such as remote sensing and intelligent assessment of land degradation. The plan also calls for establishing demonstration bases supporting the implementation of the UN Convention to Combat Desertification.
The plan also calls for strengthening China-Arab cooperation networks on desertification control, improving mechanisms for sharing policies, technologies and research outcomes, and expanding partnerships under the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative. Governments, research institutions, businesses, social organizations and local communities will be encouraged to participate.
Cooperation on capacity building will also be expanded through exchanges among young experts, joint research, field demonstrations and technical training.
The meeting was jointly hosted by China's NFGA and the Secretariat of the League of Arab States, and organized by the Chinese Academy of Forestry and the China-Arab States International Research Center for Drought, Desertification and Land Degradation.
Cui Lijuan, vice president of the Chinese Academy of Forestry noted that some initiatives are already taking shape. China and Egypt, for example, are exploring a comparative study of the basins of Yellow River and Nile River, with the aim of exchanging experience in ecological protection and integrated watershed management. 
The initiative, according to Cui, has received support from the Chinese Academy of Forestry and attracted interest from international non-governmental organizations.
Future cooperation between China and Arab states will also focus on desertification monitoring and early warning, ecological technologies, and exchanges and training for young professionals.
The two sides also aim to broaden participation by bringing businesses, social organizations and international institutions into a cooperation framework currently led primarily by government agencies, Cui said. 
In 2023, the China-Arab International Research Center on Drought, Desertification and Land Degradation was inaugurated during an international forum on desert control, showcasing China's commitment to sharing its expertise gained from the Kubuqi desert control, per Xinhua.
Over the past three years, the center has steadily strengthened regular cooperation mechanisms between China and Arab states. The two sides have jointly developed Earth observation and intelligent decision-support tools for land degradation, while China has compiled 30 practical desertification-control technologies across six categories suitable for application in Arab states, according to NFGA.
The center has also established regular channels of exchange with countries including Saudi Arabia and Egypt, while building an initial China-Arab desertification-control network and expert pool to support continued technical cooperation and professional training across Arab states.
