The Ministry of Railways reveals its intention to create a new line connecting cities during 2012. According to the ministry’s deputy chief engineer, Zhang Shuguang, the new technology will enable to run trains faster than the present bullet trains. “It is possible that we can start to manufacture 380 km/h trains in two years’ time, and put them into service on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway,” he said, according to state media.
China’s two most important cities are separated by 1,318 kilometres or 819 miles. The new railway route will be the longest high-speed railway to be built in one go in the world. The Tianjin route uses technology imported from the German engineering giant Siemens. However Mr Zhang said China’s own engineers had “mastered” the technology sufficiently to upgrade the trains’ speed further.
Moreover, the journey time will be cut down to four to five hours from the current 10-12 hours. The new rail route would definitely be a competition to the present two hours flight time. These Chinese trains are designed keeping in mind to be running at top speed hence cutting down duration to a considerable level.

Is internet risky? Have you ever been duped? I am sure you know somebody who has been duped. Internet is risky, only if you are careless. Use your brain before investing anywhere.
The basic principle is that you cannot become rich overnight. Internet has made the communication easier. Now companies can directly communicate with thousands of potential investors just with a click of a mouse. This is where the scams-ters come into play. They will contact you over email or will post lucrative offers in several bulletin boards. It becomes really difficult to distinguish between a real offer and a fake one. Often you will get newsletters from several companies asking you to invest. Before clicking on any of their links, make sure that the email has been generated from an authentic emailaddress of the company. Even in bulletin boards, there are plenty of fake users who claim to have profited from certain company. So be careful that you do not fall in any trap. Often these scamsters target investors by sending junk mails. You should never respond to such mails. Clicking on any suspicious link
can make you vulnerable to more threats.
Managing online issues and protection yourself from scams is not really a big deal. You just have to keep your eyes open.
