SEOUL Balenciaga Speed Trainer Knit High Runner Noir Blanche , July 1 (Xinhua) -- Chinese tourists no long need to bring a large amount of U.S. dollars when travelling in South Korea, as they can choose to use China UnionPay, or even RMB in cash in some stores.


"The store I just passed by offers five percent discount for China UnionPay users. Some stores in Seoul even accept China's RMB in cash," a Chinese tourists surnamed Xiao told Xinhua.


For Chinese tourists, it is more convenient for them to use China UnionPay and cash, or they have to spend much more time on finding currency exchange booths and deciding on a favorable price.


"I find China's RMB is highly recognized in Seoul," Xiao said.


China is the first source of tourists for South Korea. The number of Chinese tourists visiting South Korea reached one million in 2008 Balenciaga Triple S Low Top Grise Rouge Pas Cher , compared with around 710,000 in 2005. From January to May this year, the number exceeded two million.


A shop owner at Seoul's Myeong-dong commercial district told Xinhua that he noticed the increasing number of Chinese tourists and it was impossible not to accept China UnionPay.


China UnionPay entered South Korea in 2005, and nearly all South Korean stores accept it, said Sheng Jinchun, China UnionPay's representative to South Korea.


Tourists users can book hotel, shopping and sightseeing with China UnionPay cards Homme Balenciaga Triple S Low Top Noir Pas Cher , and they can also withdraw cash from more than half of the ATMs in South Korea. During the 2014 Incheon Asian Games, they can even pay for taxis with the cards, Sheng said.


Chinese tourists can also easily find exchange booths in Myeong-dong and other commercial districts. Some shopping malls even accept China's RMB in cash.


South Korean banks have also witnessed a large amount of RMB deposits since the second half of last year, with the total volume reaching 11.3 billion U.S. dollars at the end of May.


South Korea expressed its intent in April to build up RMB offshore trading markets. With the increasing internationalization of the Chinese currency and the deepening of bilateral financial cooperation, the RMB fervor in South Korea will continue.


SHIJIAZHUANG, Nov. 19 (Xinhua) -- A Chinese environmental regulator has published a new sequel after his first novel about smog gained national attention.


Li Chunyuan, deputy director of the Environment Protection Bureau in Langfang city Femme Balenciaga Triple S Low Top Noir Blanche Pas Cher , Hebei Province, made his name as an author after his first novel, "Smog Is Coming," was published last June. It has sold 30,000 copies and excerpts published online have received 100 million page views.


The sequel, "The Conundrum of Smog," is the second in Li's smog trilogy and hit shelves this week. It explores bureaucracy Nike Dunk Basse Violet Pas Cher , fraud and controversy surrounding a smog-related pollution crisis in a Chinese city.


The hero of the first novel was Lyu Zhengtian, head of the environmental protection bureau of E County. The second novel centers on higher-ranking officials, as Li draws characters and scenes from his work in Langfang, a city neighboring Beijing which has been regularly covered by smog.


The second novel weaves a story about government action, obstacles and the varying interests of different parties in a pollution crisis, Li said.


"In the war between smog and man, have the government Nike Dunk Basse Grise Pas Cher , companies and the public really made efforts in the same direction?" Li asks in the latest book.


"Through fictional stories, I challenge people to abide by moral, legal and scientific rules and work to curb the crisis," Li said.


Li said that many local government officials think more about their private interests than the big picture.


Environmental workers still face huge shortages in manpower and funding, even after the environmental law was amended to give regulators more power to deter polluters.


"It was like a small horse dragging a big cart," he said.


Li also calls on the public to bear some responsibility in his books.


"The main forces in battling smog are the government and industrial polluters, but the general public is also responsible. We cannot be stuck in the blame game Nike Dunk Basse Femme Pas Cher ," said Li, adding that burning coal, torching fields after harvest, setting off fireworks and driving all contribute to smog.


Explanations of environmental jargon, law and regulations can be found in the appendix of his books.


"I hope to raise awareness through my publications and move people to action," said Li.
