A former high school teacher who fled his classroom during the massive May 12 earthquake in southwest China has a new job here in a private training school.

     Fan Meizhong has a two-year contract with Keyfind Education School in the Haidian District, school spokesman Zhang Wenbin told Xinhua on Wednesday.

     The former Chinese language teacher from a private high school in earthquake-hit Dujiangyan City, Sichuan Province, was nicknamed “running Fan” by netizens （网民） after he left his students behind and escaped the classroom as the 8.0-magnitude earthquake struck.

     Fan’s behavior became a controversial object, and he was later fired.

     Zhang said, however, that Fan had been hired for his extensive teaching experience and talent. At Keyfind, he’ll conduct research on developing students’ potential and raising their interest in learning. He’ll also give some lectures, according to Zhang.

     “Fan, as a person, also needs to live,” Zhang said. “We hope the media will be tolerant about Fan and give him some living space. Whether he was wrong or right in his running behavior, we only want to make use of his talent.”

     He said the school had not decided what to do next about Fan’s job.

China bans free plastic bags

CHINA began a crackdown on plastic bags, banning production of thin bags and forbidding supermarkets and shops from handing them out free, Tuesday, June 1, 2008.

Chinese people use up to 3 billion plastic bags a day and the country has to refine 5 million tons of oil every year to make plastics used for packaging, according to a report on the Website of China Trade News, and fails to get rid of them properly, wasting valuable oil and littering the country, the State Council said in a notice posted on the Central Government’s Website.

“Our country consumes huge amounts of plastic bags every year. While providing convenience to consumers, they have also caused serious pollution, waste of energy and resources, because of too much use and inadequate recycling,” it said.

Worries about pollution are growing among ordinary citizens, as years of breakneck growth has a very bad effect on the country’s air and water, but the new ban may not be universally welcomed.
