While the rainfall will mainly be light to medium, parts of Yunnan and Sichuan and southeastern Tibet will see much heavier precipitation with even rainstorms on the cards, according to the National Meteorological Center (NMC).
Tibet can also expect snow in central and eastern parts.
Other areas including Inner Mongolia, Hebei and Gansu are also likely to be affected by a rain belt which will gradually weaken as it moves northward.
The NMC cautioned against geological disasters caused by torrential rain in Tibet and Yunnan and disruption to transport.
Gales up to scale 12 are expected in the East China Sea, the Bohai Sea and the Yellow sea, as well as waters near Taiwan. A yellow alert has been issued Nike Vapormax Off White , the second least serious in a four-tier system.
NICOSIA, June 7 (Xinhua) -- Cyprus will return to the markets in the immediate future, a year earlier than originally planned, Finance Minister Haris Georgiades said on Saturday.
"We contemplate this possibility and a decision will be made within days. We are working on the final details," Georgiades said.
He said the government plans issuing a 500-million-euro (about 680 million U.S. dollars) bond possibly maturing in five years.
He did not say what the interest would be but he said he expected it to be lower than a 6.5 percent interest on a 100-million-euro bond issued recently by private placement.
Cyprus was pulled back from the brink of default just over 15 months ago under a 10-billion-euro three-year long bailout program by the Eurogroup and the International Monetary Fund. It originally planned to return to the markets on a trial basis in the middle of 2015.
But Georgiades said that returning confidence in the Cypriot economy along with an increased international interest in investing in the economies of countries at the periphery have made the return to the markets possible earlier than originally thought.
He said the troika representing international lenders has been notified about the return to the markets and has given its approval.
Georgiades said there have been no additional needs for money as the economy is well on track and borrowing from the troika will continue on the lines of the bailout program.
But the money from the new bond will go towards lowering expensive internal loans obtained by the previous government in the two years preceding the bailout.
"The money will actually go to repay loans obtained from the banks and this means injecting fresh money in the economy which is faced with a shortage of liquidity," Georgiades explained.
Internal loans Nike Vapormax Flyknit Triple Black , which total 4.5 billion euros are not been repaid with bailout money.
Money from the planned bond will go towards part payment of an expensive 1.8 billion euros compound interest loan issued to recapitalize Cyprus Popular Bank, known as Laiki, when it came within a breath from bankruptcy in July, 2012.
Laiki was wound down by the troika nine months later in a resolution of the oversized Cypriot banking system, which also involved recapitalizing the island's primary bank by seizing depositors' money. (1 euro = 1.36 U.S. dollars)
MEXICO CITY, March 7 (Xinhua) -- Much has been made over the years about the Latin American paradox of women ascending to a nation's highest office in a region famous for its machismo.
Despite entrenched macho attitudes traditionally associated with Latino culture Nike Vapormax Triple Black , the region can boast a respectable number of past and present female heads of state.
Today women lead in four Latin American countries, Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Jamaica. In another three nations, Panama, Guatemala and Peru Nike Vapormax Flyknit White , they hold the second-highest rank, serving as vice presidents.
Do countries need women at the top to push for women's rights? Perhaps not, but it does seem to help.
In the lead up to International Women's Day this March 8, it is worth asking whether having women in leadership posts helps to further gender equality across societies. A look mainly at three of the region's countries, Brazil, Chile and Mexico Nike Vapormax White , seems to indicate that it does.
Under Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff, an outspoken champion of human rights and gender equality, the nation's congress has adopted key laws to protect women's rights.
Most recently, Brazil's Chamber of Deputies (lower house of parliament) on Tuesday approved a bill to discourage violence against women by reclassifying the targeted killing of a woman based on her gender as femicide or aggravated homicide.
Similarly, the punishment for the crime was also increased to between 12 and 30 years in prison. According to the law, the severity of the punishment increases in consideration of the vulnerability of the victim. For example Nike Vapormax Flyknit Black , the jail term applied is longer if the victim was pregnant or had recently given birth, was underage or elderly, or had a disability.
Rousseff's government also earmarked funds to build an innovative network of full-service shelters throughout Brazil for battered women. The idea, she said, was for the shelters to provide legal aid, psychological support Nike Vapormax Black , job placement and other assistance, so victims did not have to go from one government agency to another seeking help.
Latin America is one of the world's most violent regions for women: the world's top three countries with the highest femicide rates are in Central America and the Caribbean, according to the Swiss-based Small Arms Survey, while five South American countries make it into the top 25.
In Chile, President Michelle Bachelet's most visible contribution to gender equality is her cabinet, where nine out of 23 ministers Nike Vapormax Flyknit , or some 40 percent, are women.
