英国《每日电讯报》的最新消息，已经消失多天，目前在美国哈佛念书的薄熙来儿子薄瓜瓜，星期四晚间在美国官员的陪同下，走出了他在哈佛附近居住的高级公寓，当时的他身穿身色夹克，手拉行李箱。
消息人士向《每日电讯报》透露，〝他看起来并不害怕，但是看来是很渴望跟着官员一起离开〞。
薄瓜瓜自他父亲薄熙来3月15号免职后，就消声匿迹，之前有传闻指他打算在美国申请政治庇护，理由是担心被政敌谋杀。
据媒体此前报导，薄瓜瓜就读的美国哈佛大学肯尼迪政府学院，拒绝透露有关其学籍及行踪等问题。校方表示薄瓜瓜是〝特殊学生身份〞，入学前与校方签署协议，不得向外透露任何个人资料。有部分学生称，近日不见薄瓜瓜现身校园。

何志平涉嫌替一间上海企业贿赂乍得及乌干达官员，上周连同中间人塞内加尔前外长加迪奥于美国纽约被捕，日前提堂后还柙至今。根据美国联邦监狱局网站，现时两人被拘禁在纽约曼哈顿下城的大都会惩教中心，该惩教中心监禁多名重犯。

《南华早报》昨引述消息人士指，何志平跟其他面对类似情况的人一样，现时表现明显焦虑（obviously anxious），但仍然是一个坚强的人（remains a strong man），急切了解将要面对甚么法律程序。
消息又指，何志平不会认罪，并已决定在25天内申请保释，将会说服法官他不会逃离美国，在整个审讯期间留在境内。资料显示，初步聆讯（Preliminary Hearing）将于下月20日进行。由于何志平有血压问题，据报已获法庭批出药物许可，可继续服食控制血压药物。至于... 阅读全帖 |

日本首相「安倍晉三」，日前高調批評中國，引發外界側目。日本媒體分析，安倍
之所以會對中國擺高姿態，是因為他已經穩固了日韓與美日關係。安倍相信，一旦日美
韓三國聯手，就有對中國強硬的本錢。
在安倍政府上台之後，中國繼續派飛機與船，接近釣魚台領海領空，但安倍一方面
先派特使訪韓，另一方面又準備訪美，與他第一任首相先訪中國大陸的安排，相當不同
。有外交人士就分析說，在安倍的外交佈局之下，對中國強硬表態的條件，越來越完備。

Movement

to let you live again through our lives,
to complete the mission which you left incomplete.

British control.
The news lifted Hong Kong's then-anxious stock and property markets and
