Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying speaks at a routine press briefing on Thursday. [Photo/fmprc.gov.cn] Beijing has voiced its strong dissatisfaction and firm opposition to the Taiwan Travel Act in the United States and has lodged solemn representations with Washington over the bill. The bill, aiming to encourage official visits between the United States and Taiwan and passed by the US House of Representatives in January, was approved by the US Senate on Wednesday, the US Congress website shows. It has to be signed by US President Donald Trump to become law. Though relevant clauses of the bill are not legally binding, the bill has severely violated the one-China principle and the stipulations of the three joint communiques between China and the US, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said on Thursday. The one-China principle is the political foundation of China-US ties, Hua said, urging the US to observe its promises to stick to the one-China policy and abide by the three joint communiques. Hua also urged the US to stop official exchanges as well as its elevation of ties with Taiwan and deal with Taiwan-related issues carefully and appropriately in order to avoid disruption or damage to China-US ties. The US established diplomatic ties with Beijing and severed such ties with Taiwan in 1979. Ruan Zongze, vice-president of the China Institute of International Studies, said the move by the US Senate shows that the US is trying to play the Taiwan card to contain China and increase its leverage in ties with China. Such bad ideas will only backfire, Ruan said, warning that the US should not harbor any illusions. China has never compromised, and will not compromise when it comes to safeguarding the one-China policy, he said, adding that China will take countermeasures against the destructive US practice. In another development, Hua dismissed on Thursday key US military officers' recent comments. CNBC quoted John Hyten, commander of US Strategic Command, as saying on Wednesday that China poses unique threats to the US. Also, Joseph Votel, commander of the US Central Command, talked on Tuesday about China's growing military ambitions in the Middle East, the Washington Post reported. In response, Hua said it is strange that the US, the number one military power in the world with a military expenditure way ahead of those of other countries, tends so often to call others a threat. She questioned the true intention behind such China threat voices. China's strategic intention is very transparent, the spokeswoman said, urging the US to view the development of the world as well as China objectively. silicone wristband manufacturer

BEIJING -- China plans to enhance safety standards for the production and use of electric bikes to make them safer on the road.A number of features, including fire-proofing and flame retardants, are required for producing safe electric bikes, according to the draft safety standards plan for e-bikes released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.The plan, which will be open for public opinion for 30 days, also lifts the speed limit of e-bikes from 20 km per hour to 25 km per hour as well as raises their weight and motor power limits.All e-bikes should be equipped with pedals to ensure they can still function in the event of motor breakdown.China is the world's largest e-bike producer and seller and home to about 200 million e-bikes with an annual production of over 30 million.However, unregulated mass production by some unscrupulous e-bike makers has turned the vehicles into a risky transportation method, with more than 56,200 accidents involving e-bikes and 8,431 deaths reported in the past five years, an increase of 8.6 percent and 13.5 percent annually.E-bike producers will have six months or one year to sell old versions and prepare for new ones while riders can trade old vehicles for new ones or enjoy subsidies, according to the plan.
