Officials probe further into cause of controversial lead poisoning in south China

GUANGZHOU, Jan. 19 (Xinhua) -- Authorities in south China's Guangdong Province have dismissed parents' claims that a battery manufacturing plant was responsible for the lead poisoning of at least 10 children.

Medical tests taken on Dec. 31, 2009 have shown 10 out of 33 children, aged from 2 to 12, in the second village of Xingren Community, Shijiao Town, Qingyuan City, had excessive levels of lead in their blood.

The other nine children had blood lead levels ranging from 100 to 199 micrograms of lead per liter of blood, proving mild exposure to lead.

Villagers blame Weierdun Industrial Co., Ltd, a battery manufacturer.

"I often see black smoke spiraling from the battery factory and it is very smelly. We don't dare to leave our doors open," said Lin Bingqun, a villager living near the plant.

Villagers have video footage of used batteries piled on the factory's floor. The piles have since been moved and the battery factory has suspended its operations.

"The batteries we produce don't contain lead," said Li Zhenrong, manager of the factory. "I admit that we didn't dispose of the used batteries very well but we are working on that."

His assessment was echoed by the Qingyuan City Environmental Protection Bureau.

Lead poisoning could be caused by several factors, such as inhaling too much automobile exhaust, said Zhang Xiaofeng, a Qingyuan Environmental Protection Bureau official.

"We will further investigate the cause of the poisoning," said Zhang.

Too much lead can damage various systems of the body including the nervous and reproductive systems and the kidneys, and it can cause high blood pressure or anemia. High blood lead levels in children can cause consequences which may be irreversible including learning disabilities, behavioral problems, and mental retardation. At very high levels, lead can cause convulsions, coma and death, says a document available on the website of World Health Organization.

PARIS, Feb. 15 (Xinhua) -- Australia needs to improve regulations, competition and infrastructure to cut costs and boost productivity, according to an Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) report released Monday.

The OECD recommended the country lift regulatory constraints and remove barriers in some infrastructure sectors so it could take full advantage of the rapid rebound of some Asian economies, notably China.

"Australia needs to boost productivity to return to long-term sustained growth. An efficient regulatory system is a main step to achieve that goal," OECD Secretary General Angel Gurria said.

The report said it was very important for Australia to maintain the current commitment to regulatory reform, which could yield substantial economic benefits in the years to come.

Australia still had challenges to conquer for "a higher, long- run growth path and continued future prosperity," said the report, identifying transport, energy, water and infrastructure sectors as the key areas for reform.

The future "success will depend on continued coordinated actions by a number of agencies at state level, as well as Australian parliaments passing and amending state laws," the OECD said.

Australia posted an annual 2 percent growth in the last quarter of 2009.
