百度 除了在U21男单比赛中输给了瑞典15岁选手莫尔加德无缘八强提前丢冠之外，于子洋在成人组的的资格赛3比1领先克罗地亚选手加希纳的大好优势下，却被连续反击逆转，最终3-4输给了这位欧洲的三流选手，更是令人失望！而其实，于子洋成为新科世界冠军也是被中国乒协改革的新政保送的。

Region's chairman says measures vital to protect fragile environment
The Tibet autonomous region has adopted the toughest environmental protection measures in China to prevent pollution caused by the tourism industry, according to the head of the regional government.
"Although tourist activities haven't harmed Tibet's ecosystem, we have already taken measures to prevent possible threats to the environment," Qizhala, the region's chairman, said on Thursday during a plenary meeting of the Tibet delegation to the 13th National People's Congress. [Special coverage]
Located on the main body of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Tibet is famous for its unique geographical features and rich wildlife, and has been dubbed the "roof of the world".
Tibet was visited 25.7 million times by tourists last year, an increase of 11.8 percent year-on-year. Considering the region covers 1.22 million square kilometers, the impact of tourism on its ecosystem is limited, Qizhala said during the session, which was open to the media.
Preventive measures have been adopted to protect the environment from being harmed by future tourist activities. The measures are the toughest in China, he said.
"No tourist facilities are allowed to be built in the key areas of any nature reserve," he said. "We also attach great importance to the disposal of plastic bags and other garbage brought in by tourists."
Qizhala added that keeping the region stable and protecting its fragile ecological system are priorities for the government.
Norg Gyai, head of the Tibet Environmental Protection Bureau, said on Thursday that the authorities will strike hard against illegal and unauthorized activities in the autonomous region's nature reserves this year.
He made the remark during a meeting in Lhasa, the regional capital, to discuss environmental protection in Tibet.
The autonomous region has 47 nature reserves, covering more than 33 percent of its land area, the highest ratio in China. Gyai said that authorities will step up efforts on environmental monitoring.
Wu Yingjie, the region's Party secretary, said he has high hopes for the second national comprehensive scientific expedition to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, due to be launched in June.
"The expedition is crucial for Tibet's development because it will provide a scientific view on how glaciers and lakes in the region develop, and the impact of such development on Tibet and even Asia," he said in Beijing.
The expedition will focus on studying climate, biodiversity and environmental changes in recent decades, as well as assess the potential benefits and risks of climate change.
