It is understood that part of the initiative will include having shopping malls extend weekend operating hours and dish out discounts.

Two conservation groups say the territory's lenient pet trade regulations are the reasons why Hong Kong is the leading importer of exotic species. The study done by the World Wide Fund for Nature and the ADM Capital Foundation found that the SAR imported more than five million exotic species in a six-year period and more than half were listed as "threatened with extinction". They say one of the main reasons is the demand from the local exotic pet market. Wildlife programme officer Christie Wong spoke to Vanessa Cheng:

The ADM Capital Foundation is calling for better traceability of imported exotic pets to curb any illegal exports. Sam Inglis, the foundation's wildlife programme manager, says of the 5.2 million exotic animals brought into Hong Kong over a six-year period, only 200,000 were legally re-exported.

In India, there is growing controversy over the use of the name India. A special session of parliament has been planned for five days from September 18, reportedly to discuss a proposal to remove the word from the country's constitution. This is popular with the ruling Hindu nationalists, who just want to use the Sanskrit name, Bharat. Earlier, dinner invitations to visiting world leaders for the upcoming G20 Summit in Delhi were sent out in the name of the ‘President of Bharat’ instead of the ‘President of India’. But is the move an attempt to disassociate from its colonial heritage or the fact that the opposition has created a coalition called India?
