A pilot program launched in 2013 for online drug retailing on third-party platforms in Hebei Nike SF-AF1 Air Force 1 Dusty Peach Uomo Boot Scontate , Shanghai and Guangdong came to an end on August 1, the People's Daily Overseas Edition reported Monday, citing a notice by the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA).

As a result, drug sales on popular online shopping sites such as Tmall and Yhd have all been suspended, the paper said.

On the webpage of a drug product on both Tmall and Yhd Uomo Nike SF-AF1 Air Force 1 Mid Verde Scontate , a button appeared asking the consumer to "submit needs" by clicking on the previous "buy" button. On Yhd, the page also carried a warning, reminding the consumer to consult a physician about its usage.

According to the paper, the third-party platforms will forward consumer demands to pharmaceutical businesses to facilitate direct trading between the two sides.

However, drug stores that have obtained a license for online sales can continue selling medicines to consumers via the Internet Nike Air Force 1 Flyknit Basse Tutte Bianche Scontate , meaning the move has little impact on the pharmaceutical industry's self-owned e-commerce platforms.

A Beijing resident surnamed Huo said drugs sold online were cheaper and that consumers also had more options. However, fake products are rampant online, and improper use of drugs without instructions from physicians could also pose health risks, he said.

The CFDA has also exercised caution on the matter. Since the end of last year, it has only issued 526 licenses to qualified online sellers of medicines. On the other hand Nike Air Force 1 Flyknit Basse Tutte Nere Scontate , a ban remains on online sales of prescription drugs.

Comments by a visiting Greek official indicate that the bid by China Ocean Shipping (Group) Co for the Piraeus Port Authority, which has been on hold for about two months following the country's election, could be accepted in the next few weeks.

COSCO was one of five industry players Uomo John Elliott x Nike Air Force 1 Basse Bianche Scontate , including the United States' largest port management company Ports America Inc, to show an interest in a 67 percent stake in Piraeus Port Authority in the second half of 2014.

The future of the deal became uncertain after voting in January that put hard-left Alexis Tsipras in the prime minister's office. He quickly suspended the privatization process.

Greek Deputy Prime Minister Yannis Dragasakis, who was part of a delegation to Beijing from Wednesday to Saturday, told the official Xinhua News Agency that the privatization would be completed within weeks, with COSCO to be "an active participant" that "can make a very competitive offer".

Dragasakis said the process had been "slightly delayed" mainly because there was "a change in the public entity owning the port's shares due to the change in government in Greece".

For its part Uomo Nike Air Force 1 Basse CMFT BHM Equality Nere Scontate , COSCO has said that it is too early to forecast a result as there are other bidders.

Foreign Minister Wang Yi said in discussions with Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias that the two countries should cooperate more closely and make the Piraeus Port project an example of mutual benefit.

The U-turn in the Greek government's attitude may reflect the country's dire economic plight. It was due to submit a new version of its reform program－the third－to European creditors and regulators on Monday.

Unless the plan is approved by the European Commission and the nation's creditors, the Greek government will not be able to get further bailouts.

The government is facing salary and pension payments of 1.7 billion euros ($1.84 billion) due by Tuesday. It will also have to pay back a loan of 450 million euros by April 9.

Many have speculated that meeting these obligations will drain the country's remaining cash. The delegation's visit to Beijing has been widely interpreted as a financing trip.

Zhen Hong, secretary-general of the Shanghai International Shipping Institute, said that it is highly probable for COSCO to win the bid, because there has been a significant change in the Greek government's attitude. A winning bid will also bring COSCO more profits through its port management activities Uomo PSNY x Nike Air Force 1 Alte Bianche Scontate , which would be welcome at a time when bulk cargo rates remain sluggish globally.

COSCO Pacific, a subsidiary of COSCO Group and the fifth-largest container terminal operator in the world, has invested 4.3 billion euros on a 35-year management lease for the two piers at Piraeus Port, which it has been operating since June 2010. It was expected to create 1,000 jobs locally. The throughput capacity of the port was also expected to increase by 2.5 times.

COSCO Group's operating revenue last year exceeded 66 billion yuan ($10.62 billion) Uomo Nike Air Force 1 Alte Baby Blu Scontate , up just 1.15 percent year-on-year. The group said that it had only eked out that gain with a rapid response to market changes by adjusting its allocation of global shipping capacity and improving its regional route network.

Piraeus is the biggest port in the Mediterranean, with an annual capacity to handle more than 3.16 million 20-foot equivalent units, the size of a standard container.

Piraeus is also a strategic partner for various multinational manufacturing giants such as Hewlett-Packard Co and Huawei Technologies Co.

A million World Cup armadillos take shape in China

In the wild the Brazilian three-banded armadillo is classed as "vulnerable", but a million furry versions of the creature picked as the 2014 World Cup mascot are taking shape in a Chinese factory.

Fuleco may for now still be a largely unknown yellow armadillo with a blue shell and tail, but the mascot of the world's biggest single sports event represents 80 percent of sales for Tongchuang Toys in the eastern province of Anhui.

The company won a contract with the tournament organisers to produce a million furry toy versio.
