 Topic1 Ambulance Refuses to Transport BabyTime is money. We use this saying to describe the importance of time. However, some first-aiders in Hunan misplace their focus on "money" instead of "time".


Last month, a 13-month-old toddler dies following an ambulance delay over a payment dispute.
Should it have happened?
Topic2 Is BRT really necessary?
Guangzhou Municipal Audit 1 Bureau has released a specific audit of the city's BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) lane in plan. Data shows building a BRT lane is exceedingly more expensive than building a bus lane, while the running speed of the two lanes are about the same.
In Beijing, there are four BRT lines. The first one was put into use in 2004. Later on, more and more cities are planning to build BRT lanes to develop public transfer system.
What does the audit report say?
Topic3 New Year Eve Dinner CheaperThe Chinese lunar New Year is coming in less than a month, and usually at this time of the year restaurants are almost fully 2 reserved for the most important dinner in a year, the New Year Eve dinner.

What is going on now?

Is such a rule necessary?
Topic5 Celebrity 5 Weibo posts with advertisements in disguiseProduct placements have made their way to China's social networking websites.
