China's
revocation of national scientific award first of its kind: The
recent revocation of a national scientific award due to academic fraud
was the first of its kind in China, National Office for Science and
Technology Awards told Xinhua Thursday.
China's Ministry of Science and Technology, on Feb. 1, issued a
statement revoking the State Scientific and Technological Progress Award
(SSTPA) given to Li Liansheng, former professor of Xi'an Jiaotong
University.
According to the statement, the investigation found Li had plagiarized
others' works and fabricated data in his winning project, and his prize
will be canceled and money awarded retrieved.
Zhao Baojing, senior officer with the National Office for S&T Award,
told Xinhua that it was the first time China had withdrawn a national
scientific honor.
Li Liansheng, former professor and doctoral tutor of Xi'an Jiaotong
University, received the second-place prize of the SSTPA in 2005 for his
research on key technologies for designing and manufacturing scroll
compressors.
In 2008, he was accused of plagiarism and providing false data in the
winning project by six professors of Xi'an Jiaotong University. An
investigation was later carried out.
Xi'an Jiaotong University suspended Li from working at the university
and rescinded his employment contract in March, 2010.

- China has 162 mln Internet users
The number of Internet users in China hit
an estimated 162 million by the end of June, with nearly 100 people a
minute going online for the first time, the China Internet Network
Information Centre (CNNIC) announced on Wednesday.
An estimated 122 million Chinese have broadband access to the Internet,
according to the 20th statistical report on China's Internet development
issued by the CNNIC on Wednesday.
One in every four Chinese Internet users, or 44.3 million, accesses the
Internet by phone, largely due to lower mobile charges and about one
third of users access the Internet primarily by wireless devices.
With Internet penetration rate reaching 12.3 percent, China had around
9.18 million domain names, including 6.15 million ending with "cn".
The number of Internet portals stood at 1.31 million, of which the
number of "cn" names grew at 137.5 percent annually to 810,000,
exceeding the number of ".com" names for the first time.
About 67.1 million computers in China are connected to the Internet, up
by 7.7 million in the first six months.
The CNNIC, the country's Internet statistics collector, defines an
"Internet user" for the purposes of the report as someone over the age
of six who uses the Internet on average at least one hour per week.
Since 1997, the CNNIC has been updating figures on the country's
Internet development through automatic Internet searches, surveys by
on-line affiliate networks and telephone sampling. (Source: Xinhua)
