Dengue on
the rise in
Mon State
A DRAMATIC increase in deadly dengue fever has put nearly 150 people in
hospital in the past four months, including one patient who died, health
officials in Mon State say. Dr Nyan Sint,
head of the state dengue haemorrhagic
fever department, said there were now
148 people in Mawlamyine hospital suffering from the fever. Normally there
are just a handful of patients at any one
time, he said.
The reasons for the increase are
the rise in population in urban areas,
he said, also citing unplanned village
development and climate change.
The rapid increase in the number
of dengue patients began with an outbreak in Katoe village, about 25 kilometres from Mawlamyines downtown
area, in January. The number of sufferers rose from 18 in January to 148, all of
them children aged 15 or under.
Mon State Chief Minister U Ohn
Myint raised the issue at a public meeting on April 6, urging people to take
precautionary measures to protect
against the mosquito-borne disease.
Dengue used to occur only in the
rainy season, but now rages throughout the whole year, according to a Mon
State dengue survey. Dengue haemorrhagic fever, the more serious form
of the disease, mostly afflicts young
children. Naw Say Phaw Waa

Top Chances Shipping Company
and Asia Wave Company told The Myanmar Times yesterday that the families of the two deceased seamen they
sent to the sunken trawler will receive
US$30,000 each, provided the contracted insurer, Nova Life Insurance,
pays up.
We will give life insurance and
compensation to those who were under our responsibility, said U Nyi Nyi
Thein Myint, managing director of
Top Chances.
He declined to say what kind of
compensation, if any, would be given
to survivors, who paid recruiters thousands of dollars to secure jobs on a
foreign vessel.
Sea Rider Shipping, which sent
27 workers to the Russian freezer
trawler, was less forthcoming about
compensation.
I can only speak definitively about
life insurance money when I get approval from the insurance company,
said manager U Soe Tint, adding that
the long process would take at least
three months.
U Than Chit Kywel, director of Star
Global Shipping Company, said compensation was the responsibility of the
South Korean intermediary agencies
that secured the seamen a job with the
Russian company.

said a final ceasefire agreement will be
signed by all NCCT members, including
the MNDAA.
Other groups that will attend the
meeting include the Shan State ArmySouth and National Democratic Alliance Army also non-NCCT members
as well as the Shan State Army-North,
the Kachin Independence Organisation, the Karen National Union, the
Karenni National Progressive Party, the
New Mon State Party and the Pa-O National Liberation Army.
However, the Chin National Front,
the Democratic Karen Buddhist Army,
the KNU-KNLA Peace Council, the All
Burma Students Democratic Front,
the Lahu Democratic Union, the Wa
National Organisation and the Arakan
National Council were not invited.
NCCT member U Khun Okkar said
negotiators had urged the UWSA to
invite all ethnic armed groups to the
meeting.
Because the Wa had not done so,
another conference will be convened
to ratify the draft ceasefire, after which
ethnic armed groups will sign the document with the government.
He said the NCCT hoped this could
be achieved as soon as possible, and
would meet in Chiang Mai on April 28
and 29 to prepare for a leaders summit
to approve the ceasefire.
Delaying the signing of the agreement will have negative impacts for
both sides and could result in an escalation of the current fighting. We hope
the summit meeting can be held in
May, but have not yet decided where.

Government to warn
illegal futures brokers
investors.
Our parent company from Indonesia is 29 years old and is in the top three
of ASEANs most profitable broker companies for clients, he added.
The deputy director of DICA, Daw
Nilar Mu, said the company licence issued by the department only applies
to the use of the company name and is
just a form of registration. These licences can be used to compete in tenders,
she said. But she noted that such companies also require permission from relevant government organisations, in this
case the finance ministry.
Ma Myat Myat from ATC brokerage
said the company had made financial
deposits with the government, but she
did not say how much.
The deputy minister for finance
rejected that. If they give a deposit, I
must know about that. But I have never
heard about that.
Two clients who invested through
ATC, but asked not to be identified, told
reporters they had been able to earn
about US$2000 within two or three
months. But Ma Myat Myat cautioned
that some clients had lost all their investments, up to $10,000.
U Maung Maung Thein warned, I

not to give their trust easily and not to
be greedy. He said the ministry would

healthcare, said Serge Pun & Associates (SPA) CEO Melvyn Pun in a recent interview.
Until this year, Pun Hlaing Hospital
was 65 percent owned by SPA and 35pc
owned by First Myanmar Investment
(FMI).
In March, the Myanmar Investment
Commission approved a partnership
with the Indonesian company Lippo,
which will initially invest $10 million,
while FMI plan to invest a further $3
million for the remainder of 2015.
Both parties expect to invest substantially more in the coming years to
expand their facilities. The partnership
between FMI and Lippo will be a 6040 shareholding, with FMI holding the
majority.
Mr Pun said SPA was the managing
agent and major shareholder of FMI.
SPAs role will predominantly be
[to act] as the majority shareholder of
FMI, while the major businesses and
operations will be held by FMI. We do
not intend for SPA to hold significant
investments directly, he said, adding,
Healthcare will be one of the four pillars of key businesses for FMI.
FMI also plans to open more clinics,
including at Mandalay and Bagan, as
well as a 24-hour acute care and emergency centre in downtown Yangon.
Now the hospital is preparing to
launch a new on-duty model, starting May 20, where patients will get the
appropriate care from the appropriate
clinician at all times of the day. Efficiency will be improved by reducing
the hospitals floor space from 20,000
square metres to 16,000, while at the
same time increasing bed numbers by
100 to 165.
A tiered pricing structure will also
be introduced to entice new clients,
with prices ranging from $10-15 a night
to about $200 a night for the VVIP
category, while the cost of care varies
case by case.
The new four-lane bridge that
opened last November could also help
entice more patients to make the trip
out to Pun Hlaing.

STRICKEN Chinese property developer Kaisa Group Holdings Ltd has defaulted on its US currency debt, making it Chinas first developer to miss a
dollar debt repayment.
The Shenzhen-based company failed
to pay US$52 million of interest on 2017
and 2018 notes due last month, according to a Hong Kong stock exchange
statement.
Kaisa, which is listed on the Hong
Kong stock exchange, had until April
20 to make the payments after a 30day grace period.
The company has been in debt restructuring talks with its onshore and
offshore lenders after it got into trouble having become embroiled in President Xi Jinpings graft crackdown.
In November Shenzhen authorities
blocked sales of its property units allegedly linked to a graft investigation
into the citys former security chief Jiang Zunyu, Bloomberg News reported.
The blockage was allegedly meant
to pressure company chair Kwok Ying
Shing into cooperating with the probe
and left the company with a severe
shortage of funds.
Kaisa is focused on facilitating the
release of its 2014 audited financial results ... [and] will continue its efforts
to reach a consensual restructuring
of its outstanding debts, the April 20
statement said.
Ratings agency Standard & Poors
downgraded Kaisa to default last
month.
Kaisa is in talks with its creditors
to push through a bailout bid by rival
property developer Sunac China Holdings Ltd.
Sunac agreed to buy a controlling
stake in late January, but the deal required a debt restructuring that would
leave investors with lower coupons
and no repayments for up to five years,

AUSTRALIAN
Prime
Minister
Tony Abbott, whose government
introduced tough measures to stop
asylum-seeker boats, said yesterday
the European Union should follow
suit, describing it as the only way to
end deaths at sea.
His comments came after a vessel
crammed with migrants capsized off
Libya at the weekend with the loss
of 800 lives, and as EU foreign and
interior
ministers
met
in
Luxembourg to discuss ways to stem
the flood of people trying to reach
Europe.
Australias conservative government introduced a military-led
operation after coming into power in
September 2013 to turn back boats
carrying asylum-seekers before they
reach the continent.
We have got hundreds, maybe
thousands of people drowning in
the attempts to get from Africa to
Europe, Mr Abbott told reporters.
The only way you can stop the
deaths is in fact to stop the boats,
he added.
While Mr Abbotts controversial
policy has proved successful, with
the nation going nearly 18 months
with virtually no asylum-seeker boat
arrivals and no reported deaths at
sea, human rights advocates say it
violates Australias international
obligations.
Before the policy was introduced,
boats were arriving almost daily
with hundreds of people drowning
en route.
We must resolve to stop this
terrible problem and the only way
you can stop the deaths is to stop the
people-smuggling trade, Mr Abbott
said.

Boat tragedy
leaves 800 dead
ITALIAN police have arrested two suspected people traffickers among the
survivors of the migrant boat that capsized off Libya on April 19, as the UN
said 800 people were killed in the Mediterraneans worst migrant disaster.
They said they had detained a Tunisian man believed to be the captain
of the vessel and a Syrian allegedly a
member of the ships crew, taken from
a group of 27 haggard survivors who
arrived in the Sicilian port of Catania
on the evening of April 20. Both face
charges of people trafficking.
Under-fire EU ministers meanwhile
agreed on a 10-point plan to double the
resources available to the current EU
border surveillance mission Triton, as
the UNs refugee agency and the International Organization for Migration
recounted what those onboard had
witnessed.
We can say that 800 are dead, said
Carlotta Sami, spokesperson for the
United Nations High Commissioner for
Refugees in Italy yesterday.
Those who escaped with their lives
described to officials the moment the
20-metre trawler capsized after a Portuguese merchant ship approached the
vessel, causing a stampede.
There were a little over 800 people
on board, including children aged between 10 and 12. There were Syrians,
about 150 Eritreans, Somalians ... They
had left Tripoli at about 8am on [April
18], Sami said.

SHIPWRECKED trove
of sugary, 19th-century
champagne is revealing
new details about
centuries-old ways of
making wine, and fresh insights into
the people who drank it, scientists
said.
The latest analysis of a few of the
168 bottles found in 2010 on the floor
of the Baltic Sea shows it was three
times sweeter than modern bubbly,
and suggests that the cool, dark ocean
might make an ideal storage cellar,
said the research published in the
Proceedings of the National Academy
of Sciences, a peer-reviewed US
journal.
After 170 years of deep sea aging
in close-to-perfect conditions, these
sleeping champagne bottles awoke
to tell us a chapter of the story of
winemaking, said the study, led by
French researchers.
While the labels were long gone by
the time the bottles were discovered,
researchers have traced them to wellknown champagne-makers Veuve
Clicquot Ponsardin (VCP), Heidsieck
and Juglar, based on markings on the
corks.
The bottles contain what is
liquid in
the glass
really did
improve
the flavour.
At
first, the
Baltic samples
were described
using terms such as
animal notes, wet hair,
reduction, and sometimes
cheesy, said the study, explaining
that these flavors could result from
fermentation and the lack of oxygen
at the sea floor.
Upon swirling the wine in the
glass to oxygenate it, the aroma
became far more pleasant, with
the main aromas described as
empyreumatic, grilled, spicy, smoky,
and leathery, together with fruity and
floral notes.
A bottle of the champagne sold
at auction in 2012 for 15,000 euros
(US$18,600).
In 2011 a bottle of Veuve
Clicquot raised from the
same shipwreck was
auctioned for a recordsetting 30,000
euros
($37,200).
