Katy Perry topearning musician

Japan’s UNESCO heritage bid draws ire over past labor abuse Page 6

NEW YORK - Katy Perry pulled in $135 million in the past year to be the world’s top-grossing musician, beating out Taylor Swift who has hinted at “bad blood” with the fellow pop singer. Forbes magazine said that the 30-year-old Perry, who is on a 150-date world tour for her album “Prism,” narrowly edged out One Direction for income in the year through June 1. The British boy band, whose future and image were thrown into doubt in March when member Zayn Malik left, grossed $130 million, according to the magazine. They were followed at $90 million by Garth Brooks, the 1990s country star who has returned to the road for a comeback album, and then Swift at $80 million.

Perry’s dominance over Swift is not surprising considering that Forbes looks at earnings during the year, not total income. Similarly, Beyonce -- who was the highest-paid among all celebrities on last year’s list -- slipped to number 29 as she ended a major tour in March 2014. Swift in October released “1989,” which was the fastestselling US album in 13 years, but she did not go on tour until May, near the end of the period analyzed by Forbes. “1989” includes the song “Bad

Blood” in which Swift complains about a rival who “hit me where I’m weak” and warns that “time can heal, but this won’t.” Swift told Rolling Stone magazine that the song was about a rival who tried to “sabotage” her tour by poaching the people working for her, leading to wide speculation she was speaking about Perry. Perry was the third highestearning celebrity overall, behind boxers Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao who fought a highly anticipated match in May in Las Vegas. (afp)

MEDAN - An air force transport plane crashed Tuesday into a residential area of a major city shortly after take-off, exploding in a fireball and killing at least 38 people. Officials warned the death toll could rise after the Hercules C-130 came down in Medan, a city of two million on the island of Sumatra, leaving buildings severely damaged and cars reduced to flaming wrecks. A major rescue operation swung into action, with ambulances fer-

rying bodies from the accident site, and crowds of anxious residents gathering around a police cordon to get a look. Novi, who works at an international school near the accident site and goes by one name, said she heard the aircraft and from her office window saw it flying very

low before it crashed. “It was very scary,” she told AFP, adding she rushed to the site with her colleagues but the wreckage and plumes of smoke looked “very bad”. Another local resident Januar, 26, said the aircraft appeared to be in trouble just before the accident. “I saw the plane from the direction of the airport and it was tilting already, then I saw smoke

billowing.” Thirty-eight bodies, including a child, had so far been brought to a hospital in Medan, said Eko Triandi, a Red Cross official who was assisting emergency teams at the hospital. “Based on reports, there are many victims still in the field,” he said. The military has said the plane was carrying 12 crew members. It was not clear how

many of the victims were from the plane and how many were on the ground. News can also be heard in “Bali Image” at Global Radio FM 96.5 from 9.30 until 10.00 am.

NEW YORK - Young soul sensation Sam Smith is singing again six weeks after he underwent vocal surgery that left him silent. The 23-year-old British singer posted Monday on Instagram a short video of him singing Elvis Presley’s “Can’t Help Falling in Love” with his brassy range. “I’m back,” was Smith’s simple message. Smith earlier announced that he would resume performing on July 3 at a festival in England’s Thetford Forest. Upcoming dates include the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland and Lollapalooza in Chicago. Smith, who had been touring with little break as his career grew, canceled shows in April when doctors noticed a vocal cord hemorrhage following a performance in Sydney. He sought help from a vocal specialist in Los Angeles and was advised to undergo surgery. The May 14 operation in Boston left him silent for several weeks. Smith, who until a few years ago was a bartender in London, amassed a global fan base with his soulful ballad about a onenight stand, “Stay With Me.” He was the big winner at the latest Grammy Awards, taking home three of the four most prestigious prizes.

Ahead Galungan, Eid, tangerine price slumps

Margriet, the suspect who killed her daugther is escorted by the police.

IBP/Yudi Karnaedi

Margriet rejects to be interrogated DENPASAR - As planned, Margriet would be interrogated as the suspect of Engeline’s murderer, Monday afternoon (Jun. 29). According to her lawyer, Hotma Sitompoel, Margriet refused to be interrogated. “She (Margriet—Ed) is quite tough because she does not feel to have committed the action as alleged. As planned, she will be interrogated for investigation report as the suspect in the murder, but she is not willing. We also agreed that she is not willing to be interrogated. What is the interrogation used for?” affirmed Hotma. According to him, the investigators that will interrogate the suspect are from the Denpasar Police, but under the control of Bali Police. “Just now there were some officers of the Bali Police. Should there be any mistakes, do not be blamed on the officers of the Denpasar Police,” he said. Related to his agreement to rejection against the interrogation because the Chief of Bali Police, Dr. Ronny F. Sompie, stated there have been three evidences. Therefore, it must be directly submitted to prosecutor and forwarded to the court. “We’ll exam-

ine. Simply resume to the hearing,” said Hotma. Moreover, this famous lawyer said that long ago before getting the examination results of INAFIS, forensic laboratory and sophisticated equipment, the Bali Police Chief already announced to the public that there will be new suspect in the near future. It means that without any preliminary evidences, police chief have made sure the presence of new suspect. “In our opinion, it is a target, not based on the analysis of the existing evidence. There are no evidences obtained from the result of INAFIS and forensic laboratory,” he said. “The question arising is that it will be useless to make investigation report if three items of evidence have been available. Simply submit them to the court. So far, we have not received yet the determination letter as the suspect,” added Hotma. He also questioned the results of

lie detector, where Bali Police Chief delivered that many explanations of Agus carried truth, and when Margriet was checked twice with the device and the results indicate that she tells no lies. “It is no use to interrogate her again, just submit to the court. Well, naming as a suspect means police have evidence. Please submit to the court as soon as possible. We just want to see what evidences to be presented,” he affirmed. Concerning with the rejection, Margriet has been made an official report that she was not willing to be interrogated. The next step to be taken by the lawyer team of Margriet is learning whether there is a justifiable legal reason to defend his client. “So, the suspect is charged with Article 340 (premeditated murder—Ed) again. How could police know if it has been planned beforehand?” he said. (kmb36)

BANGLI - Ahead of Galungan and Eid falling around mid-July, the prices of agricultural commodities have started to increase. However, it does not happen to the price of Kintamani tangerine. Entering holiday seasons this time, the price of Kintamani tangerine even drops. This condition is triggered by simultaneous harvest in Kintamani with other regions so that the product supply is abundant in the market. A tangerine farmer of Mangguh village, Kintamani, I Nengah Selamat, claimed that during holiday season this time the price of Kintamani tangerine is only sold for IDR 5,000 to IDR 5,500 per kg. The selling price is much different from the previous one, where the price of tangerine could penetrate the price of IDR 7,000 to IDR 8,000 per kg. He said that the price drop of tangerine ahead of Galungan and Eid this time has happened almost since three weeks ago. This condition will automatically make tangerine farmers in Kintamani complain. Apart from price decline, consumer demand for the Kintamani tangerine is also admitted to decline. According to him, this happens due to fasting month. “Fasting month has great influence so that the demand drops,” he said. Nevertheless, he predicted the falling prices and demand will last until next few weeks. When the feast arrives, the price of Kintamani tangerine is predicted to be recovering. “Based on past experiences, the price of tangerine rose during the Eid. Moreover, this year’s feast is very close,” he added. (kmb40)

Videotron at Lukluk intersection dismantled

MANGUPURA - Municipal Police of Badung eventually dismantled the videotron (outdoor LED display) on Jalan Raya Lukluk--Kapal. The dismantling of billboard considered to have violated the Regional Bylaw No.80/2014 on the implementation of advertisement in Badung County has been carried out since last Saturday. “We already did the demolition two days ago (Saturday— Ed). When dismantling it, we need a person who is expert in the field so as not to be broken,” said the Chief of the Badung Municipal Police, I Ketut Martha, when confirmed on Monday (Jun. 29). According to him, the owner of the outdoor ad display known as LED TV will transform the concept into a billboard because it has already the permit. “It will be replaced with billboard because the license is for billboard not for LED TV,” he said. Previously, Martha said there were four units of videotron to be demolished, other than the one at the Lukluk intersection. However, his party is still waiting for an expert to do the demolition. From 50 billboard advertisements in Badung, some of which belong to the type of videotron advertisement. “Demolition of the videotron should require specific expertise and the owner,” he said. He mentioned that his party has a lot of efforts in policing outdoor billboards ranging from the large to small sizes. As is known, this year the team has managed to dismantle a total of 41 large billboards as well as 145 medium and small billboards. His party gets constraints in looking for laborers willing to dismantle the giant billboards and large enough budget to do the tasks. For the billboards whose demolition has not been targeted will be proposed to get a demolition budget in the budget amendment 2015. (kmb27)

Like the real game, fantasy sports now worth billions

NEW YORK - Fantasy sports were once just a fun way for diehard fans to express their love of the game together with other zealots, without actually getting out on the field themselves. Now they are a multibilliondollar business whose tech-savvy clientele increasingly drive how the pro leagues operate and the way big games are broadcast. The industry’s ascendancy was on display at the Fantasy Sports Trade Association’s summer conference this week, where sports giants like broadcaster ESPN and the National Basketball Association championed fantasy leagues and promised more fantasy-friendly steps to feed the boom. In fantasy sports, a participant creates his own team, selecting

players from a real-world sports league like the NBA, National Football League or England’s Premier League football. As real games are played, a fantasy team competes and is ranked against others based on the actualgame performance of its players. Fantasy competitors once matched their dream teams against others to suss out their nose for talent and for simple bragging rights. Today, with 51.6 million Americans participating in fantasy sports leagues, according to the FSTA, players can pay to join competitions that

award prizes of $1 million or more. Fantasy players spend an average $465 per year on their imaginary competitions, up markedly from $95 in 2012, according to the market research firm Ipsos. That is a big change from the old days when fantasy players were dismissed as statistics geeks and relegated to the fringes. “When there were any mentions at all, it was sort of a sneering disrespect for fantasy sports,” FSTA president Paul Charchian said in an interview. “Now we are coveted.” Fantasy sports date back to the

1980s when a small group of baseball-loving academics and writers established “Rotisserie Baseball.” After picking their teams, they would pore over the scores and other data published in newspapers after games, ranking their imaginary teams against others. But in the fast-evolving era of smartphones, big data and instant news, today’s contests are a kind of fantasy sports on steroids. And the industry got a boost when, in 2006, the US Congress -- which has mostly banned online gambling -- ruled fantasy sports did not fall under that category, allowing a surge in playing for money. A typical fantasy contestant now

WASHINGTON - The percentage of Americans using the Internet has remained unchanged for the past three years, with older and low-income people making slow progress getting online, a study showed Friday. The Pew Research Center report showed 84 percent of American adults using the Internet in 2015, the same as in 2013 and 2014 and up just one point from 2012. The number is up sharply, however, from 2000 when just 52

percent were online. “For some groups, especially young adults, those with high levels of education, and those in more affluent households, Internet penetration is at full saturation levels,” the report said. “For other groups, such as older adults, those with less educational attainment, and those living in lower-income households, adoption has historically been lower but rising steadily, especially in recent years. At the same time,

digital gaps still persist.” Among those over 65, the percentage who use the Internet was 58 percent, a modest increase from recent years. But 96 percent of those between 18 and 29 were going online, the survey found. Internet penetration among those with less than a high school education was 66 percent, a gain of 11 percentage points from 2014. For those with a college degree, 95 percent were online. Among low-income adults --

those earning less than $30,000 annually -- 74 percent were using the Internet, a number unchanged from a year ago and just three points higher than in 2012. But 97 percent of people with incomes above $75,000 reported being connected. “These trends have been consistent over time, although the more recent rise of smartphones has provided Internet access to lower-income people, sometimes with lower prices, sometimes

keeps one eye on an actual game and the other on a tablet or smartphone that aggregates fantasy-league points in real time, spitting out the standings of virtual teams play-by-play. Many fantasy game sites can send alerts if a key player scores a touchdown, or gives up a goal. Competitions have spread from baseball, basketball and football to sports like golf and rugby. Contestants can pay to play for an entire season, or just an evening’s worth of games. Delivering that kind of action has made two leading fantasy companies, DraftKings and FanDuel, each worth an estimated $1 billion. (afp)

with other attractive technology features,” the researchers said. Rural residents were also less likely to be using the Internet -- 78 percent compared with 85 percent of urban and suburban dwellers. The report analyzed some 97 surveys since 2000 of American adults including two surveys of 3,004 Americans in 2015. The margin of error for the most recent survey was two percentage points. (afp)

New Zealand man gets 15 years jail for drugs DENPASAR - An Indonesian court on Tuesday sentenced a New Zealand man to 15 years in jail for trafficking crystal methamphetamine into the resort island of Bali. Antony de Malmanche was discovered with 1.7 kilograms (3.7 pounds) of the drug hidden inside his backpack upon landing in Bali in December. His family claim the 53-year-old was the victim of an online dating scam and that he was travelling to Bali to see a woman he met on the Internet, who had made his travel arrangements. But presiding judge Cening Budiana told the Denpasar district court “the defendant has been legally and convincingly proven guilty of illegally importing drugs”.

“We sentence him to 15 years in prison and a fine of four billion rupiah ($300,000),” he added. “His act contradicted the government’s anti-drug programme. It also damaged Bali’s image as a tourist destination.” Malmanche’s sentence was lighter than the 18 years being demanded by prosecutors. Drug traffickers can face death by firing squad in Indonesia. Budiana said Malmanche was polite in court and had no previous convictions. His lawyer Chris Harno said they were still considering whether to

appeal the sentence. Foreigners are frequently arrested for attempting to smuggle narcotics into Bali, and some have been handed the death sentence. Despite international protests, Indonesia executed seven foreign drug convicts in April, defending the move as a vital front of its “war” on drugs. Two Australians were among the group and Canberra recalled its ambassador from Jakarta in protest. British grandmother Lindsay Sandiford, who was caught smuggling cocaine into Bali, is also on death row. (afp)

The seeking of mosaic stones having been carried out for years is allowed without an appropriate solution. Moreover, the mosaic stone seekers are well coordinated by collectors that purchase the proceeds of stone seeking.

Coastal areas of Klungkung damaged SEMARAPURA - Leadership of the Regent of Klungkung, I Nyoman Suwirta, is questionable. It is related to a number of violations currently occurred in Klungkung that seem to be intentionally allowed such as the search of mosaic stones along the shoreline of Klungkung. Actually, the seeking of mosaic stones having been carried out for years is allowed without an appropriate solution. Moreover, the mosaic stone seekers are well coordinated by collectors that purchase the proceeds of stone seeking. Mosaic stone seekers on Klotok Beach for instance have been doing the profession for years and amassed stones at the location. Freely, the seekers of approximately 180 people are amassing mosaic stone materials. Unfortunately, the government of Klungkung seems powerless to stop the illegal mining. On the other hand, so far it has not been able to empower the stone seekers depending very much on the seeking for stones to meet daily needs. One of the mosaic stone seekers from Satra, Klungkung, Dewa Nyoman Gede Antara, 60, said that there are some 180 people working for mosaic stones. They come from surrounding villages around Klotok Beach such as the Satra, Tojan and Tangkas. Residents seeking for mosaic stones averagely have profession as farmer. According to him, the searching for mosaic stone is much easier than farming. “Seeking for mosaic stone surely gets ones, but farming must wait until harvest arrives,” said the oldest among the stone seekers. He admitted that during the search for mosaic stone, he infrequently has trouble with the government. Moreover, the Municipal Police of Klungkung has never come to discipline them. Averagely, Dewa Antara can earn IDR 25,000 each day. “When getting a small number of stone, he can only earn

IDR 11,000 or when getting in larger number or working until evening he can earn IDR 25,000,” he said when met on Klotok Beach. The coming of journalists to Klotok Beach causes some stone seekers furious. Mosaic stone searchers do not allow journalists to take photos. As the result of the publication, they claimed that the Klungkung Municipal Police came to seekers of mosaic stone. Otherwise, when no journalists published their activities, they can safely operate. “Arguably the seeking of mosaic stone causes abrasion. Actually the abrasion is kindled by the river nearby,” said one of the stone seekers who are angry over the coming of journalists. (dwa)

Liberia records Ebola death after country declared virus-free

The temporary electrical wire is seen in the picture. Hundreds of residents at Alengkong hamlet, Songan village, Kintamani, have not been able to enjoy electricity.

Getting no electricity, hundreds residents use lantern

BANGLI - Hundreds of residents at Alengkong hamlet, Songan village, Kintamani, have not been able to enjoy electricity so far. It happens because the PLN network has not reached the local village area. As a result, residents behind the hills are forced to use lantern for lighting at night. Hamlet chief of Alengkong, Nengah Mandiyasa, when asked for his confirmation admitted the condition. He said that until 2015, hundreds of residents have been unable to enjoy electricity like residents at other villages. He explained that of the 212 families at Alengkong hamlet, only some 50

families have been able to enjoy the electricity. In the meantime, the remaining residents have to use sober lighting such as lantern. Further, he said that the electricity having been enjoyed by tens of families all this time actually poses the electricity used by a group of residents to pump water in Lake

Batur. The electricity is taken from the nearby electricity substation at the parent village located some three kilometers away. Since the electricity is used to raise water of Lake Batur from the morning until afternoon, the residents can only take advantage of the electricity at night. “It must be used alternately. Residents can only enjoy electricity when it is not used to take up water,” he said. Not only that, to connect the electricity to people’s home, they are forced to supply

BANGLI - Amid the emergence of ‘go green and clean movement,’ a number of residents in Bangli County try their luck by engaging in the plastic waste processing business. Unfortunately, the business having a positive impact on the environment remains shortage of facilities and infrastructure. Similarly, the labor force is still limited. Under this condition, the volume of production each month becomes less maximal. One of the businessmen processing plastic waste at Juuk Bali, Susut subdistrict, I Nengah Suaten, revealed on Monday (Jun. 29) that the business underestimated by most

people has been run since about five months ago. He said the rubbish collected each month reaches very large number or approximately ten tons where some 70 percent comes from Bangli County while the rest from Gianyar and Badung areas. He does not only purchase plastic waste and re-sell to other collectors. However, to boost the selling price, he immediately does a processing. Milling process is an important part of the plastic recycling system. This process becomes a bridge so that plastic waste can be useful. The plastic waste processors collect the materials in the form of plastic bottles, glass or plastic sheet from

scavengers or amass by him. The processed plastic waste is sold to plastics factory in Surabaya. The number of material processed in fact has not been poised with adequate facilities because the machine in use remains the small one. As a result, the processing capacity is not so much, where it only reaches ten tons each month. Besides, the labor is also still minimal, namely only two people coming from outside Bali. “Our machine is of small size. It greatly affects the volume of production. In addition, we also lack of labor, especially in the sorting and delivery,” explained Suaten.

power by using a small-sized and substandard cable. Though they acknowledge being hazardous enough, it is the only way owned by residents to enjoy electricity. Mandiyasa also revealed that since the electricity used by residents at home belongs to high voltage, then inevitably people also have to spend much each month. It happens because the electricity rate charged by the PLN to take up lake water belongs to corporate rate, not for household rate. “As the pump needs high power, it also costs very

expensive,” he said. Nevertheless, dozens of families are still using it because if it is ignored the subscription charge will be also very high. Related to this issue, Mandiyasa admitted that his party has actually proposed to get new connection from the PLN. However, until now the proposal has not received any response. “If later on the PLN can approve our application, we expect the electricity rate to be distinguished, namely the electricity to take up lake water and the one for household use,” he hoped. (kmb40)

He said further that when using a larger milling machine, the plastic waste milled can reach twice the current number. According to Suaten, it will accelerate the reduction of waste volume generated by the community, especially plastic waste which has recently become a global problem. As a follow up, he said to have delivered the existing constraints to local government. Associated with labor, he still relies on labor from outside Bali because local residents seem to have less interest in it. “Our constraints have been submitted to local government, while our labor is from outside Bali,” he said. Suaten added

that its turnover is very promising. In the meantime, the owner of Waste Bank at Taman Bali village, Bangli, I Wayan Sutirka, said that until now he does not encounter any obstacles in managing his business. Associated with labor, he just relies on the members of the group. “Until now, we have not encountered any problems. We just involve all the members of the group,” he said. On the other hand, since about two months ago, said Sutirka, the supply of plastic waste to his Waste Bank has increased. Earlier the waste collected each month reached five to six tons. Today, it has reached about nine tons. (kmb45)

MONROVIA - A Liberian has died of Ebola in the first recorded case of the disease since a country at the heart of an epidemic that has killed more than 11,000 people was declared virus-free on May 9 after going 42 days without a new case. The body of a 17-year-old tested positive for Ebola in Margibi County and authorities have begun tracing people the victim may have come into contact with while infected, Deputy Health Minister Tolbert Nyenswah said on Tuesday. “There is no need to panic. The corpse has been buried and our contact tracing has started work,” Nyenswah told Reuters. Margibi is a rural area close to the capital Monrovia, and is home to the country’s main international airport. A total of 11,207 people died from Ebola in Liberia, neighbouring Guinea and Sierra Leone since the outbreak began in December 2013, World Health Organization (WHO) spokesman Tarik Jasarevic told a news conference in Geneva. Around 43 percent of those deaths were in Liberia, where the world’s worst outbreak of the disease peaked between last August and October with hundreds of cases a week. New incidences have tapered this year, with 12 new confirmed cases reported in Guinea and eight

in Sierra Leone in the week to June 21, according to WHO figures. Even so, health officials urge vigilance to prevent a resurgence of the disease. The new case will test Liberia’s response capacity at a time when international health organisations have wound down their presence in the affected countries, said Fatoumata Lejeune-Kaba, spokeswoman for the U.N. Ebola response mission. Liberia fought Ebola at a community level, adopting regular hand-washing and the safe burial of bodies among other measures and the discovery of the new case shows that systems for testing remain in place, she said. “This should have been expected because as long as there is Ebola in the region no one country can be safe. Liberia is vulnerable because of Guinea and Sierra Leone.” Ebola damaged the health care systems and economies of the three West African countries and caused global alarm that peaked in September and October when isolated cases were confirmed in countries such as the United States and Spain. Nigeria, Senegal and Mali also recorded at least one case each before ending the epidemics in their countries. (rtr)

A year after Gaza war, Hamas entrenched as frustration grows

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Emad Firi is angry. During last summer’s Israel-Hamas war, a shell slammed through the roof of his house and shredded his right leg. Unable to work, Firi’s son now drives his taxi but the family struggles to survive.

The blood of a survivor of the Ebola virus is extracted as part of a study launched at Liberia’s John F. Kennedy Hospital in Monrovia, Liberia, June 17, 2015. The Ebola virus that devastated parts of West Africa over the past year did not mutate at a faster rate than in previous outbreaks, according to an international study published on Wednesday.

The 50-year-old blames Israel, but also the Islamic militant group Hamas which has ruled Gaza since a violent takeover in 2007. In the Hamas era, the tiny territory has endured three wars with Israel and a crippling Israeli-Egyptian border blockade that keeps most of its 1.8 million residents trapped. “Who is not angry about this difficult situation?” Firi said, waiting at a rehabilitation clinic to finally to be fitted with an artificial leg. But the people of Gaza won’t rise up — some out of fear, he said. “If I say two words, I may go to prison,” he says, as Hamas has little tolerance for dissent and often detains critics. “So we stay silent.” A year after the most destructive war in Gaza yet, Hamas remains in control — despite signs of mounting frustration and a poll indicating half the residents would emigrate if borders were open. No alternative to Hamas rule has emerged, after deep-seated rivalries between Hamas and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas derailed attempts to set up a unity government in both the West Bank and Gaza.

Hamas can also rely on unwavering support from about one-third of the population, polls indicate. At the same time, Israel and Egypt have signaled a policy shift, from trying to weaken and perhaps topple Hamas, including by enforcing the blockade over the past eight years, to containing the group. Egypt’s military temporarily opened the border crossing with Gaza in recent days. Thousands left Gaza for the first time in months, while shipments of desperatelyneeded cement entered the territory. Egypt said it acts according to changing security assessments, while Hamas officials said they were promised a further easing. Meanwhile, Israel relaxed its stringent movement restrictions for Gaza residents, amid reports that foreign diplomats are carrying messages between Israel and Hamas on a long-term cease-fire deal. Israeli officials have also struck a new tone. The outgoing top army commander dealing with Gaza, Maj. Gen. Sami Turgeman, has said recently that Israel and Hamas have some shared interests, while leading

right-wing Cabinet minister Naftali Bennett said the Hamas presence in Gaza is a reality. “It’s not a matter of reconciling with it (Hamas rule) or not,” he told Israeli TV’s Channel 2 over the weekend. “I see that they (Hamas) are there.” Israel and the West have branded Hamas, which is sworn to Israel’s destruction, as a terror group. Salah Bardawil, a Hamas spokesman, said he believes Egypt and Israel have become “more realistic.” They “realized that they can’t reach their goals by violence and force,” he said. Hamas’ biggest problem currently is lack of funds, after Egypt shut down hundreds of smuggling tunnels under its border with Gaza two years ago. The tunnels delivered cheap fuel and cement, powering key sectors of the economy, while Hamas earned tens of millions a year taxing the smuggled goods. The tunnel closures triggered Hamas’ worst-ever financial crisis, leaving it unable to cover its $30 million-a-month payroll for 40,000 civil servants and security forces. (ap)

Sony plunges 8.25% on massive share sale plan

TOKYO - Shares in Sony plunged 8.25 percent Tuesday on dilution fears after the Japanese electronics giant announced plans to raise $3.6 billion through stock and bond sales.

A man looks at television sets by Japan’s Sony Corp at an electronics retailer in Tokyo June 10, 2015. Shares in Sony plunged 8.25 percent Tuesday on dilution fears after the Japanese electronics giant announced plans to raise $3.6 billion through stock and bond sales.

The stock closed at 3,461.5 yen on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, down 8.25 percent from the previous day, while the benchmark index ended up 0.63 percent. Sony plans to raise a total of 441 billion yen ($3.6 billion) -- more than 10 percent of the company’s market capitalisation as of Tuesday. It is the first new share issuance in 26 years, the company said. Of the 441 billion yen, 321.5 billion yen will be procured though new issuance and a secondary offering of shares. The company plans to raise another 119.9 billion yen in bonds that can be converted into stocks. The financing is for image sensors for cameras and the shares will be offered in Japan and overseas, the company said. “As financing this size is unusual, it’s only natural that the stock fell in accordance with an expected dilution” of per-share value, said Hirokazu Kabeya, senior strategist at Daiwa Securities. The announcement came with players unsettled by events in Europe, where Greece is lurching towards a default on its debt. “The timing wasn’t good as the market was already roiled over the Greek problem,” he told AFP.

NBC, Televisa latest to dump Trump over Mexican immigrant comments

NEW YORK - NBC and Televisa severed business ties Monday with Donald Trump, joining a chorus of protests over the mogul turned US presidential hopeful’s remarks about Mexican immigrants. It means the Miss USA and Miss Universe beauty pageants -- for which Trump owns the broadcast rights -- will not be aired on NBC, which is a unit of Comcast. And Trump, 69, will no longer appear in the NBC reality show “The Apprentice,” where he had been a star attraction. Just hours later, Mexico’s Televisa -- the world’s largest Spanish-

language network -- also announced its decision to cut business ties with the billionaire property developer turned TV star. “Mr Trump has shown neither understanding of nor respect for Mexican migrants and has offended the entire population of Mexico,” a Televisa statement said. NBC and Televisa’s announcements came four days after Univision, the leading broadcaster in the US Spanish-language TV market, broke with the Miss Universe Organization. Miss Universe is a popular show watched by viewers around

the world. Trump has angered many in America with comments he made in announcing his run for the Republican presidential nomination last week. Hispanics are the country’s fastest growing minority, and the majority of US Hispanics are of Mexican descent and origin. In a rambling 45-minute speech, Trump said: “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best.” He added: “They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re

bringing crime. They’re rapists.” Trump’s comments triggered criticism both in the United States and Mexico. Mexican Interior Minister Miguel Angel Osorio Chong called them “prejudiced and absurd”. Hispanic and migrant advocacy groups slammed Trump, while Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton called his remarks inflammatory. But Trump is not backing down. Over the weekend he said Mexico should pay for a wall along the border it shares with the United States. “I would do something very

severe unless they contributed or gave us the money to build the wall,” Trump said on CNN’s State of the Union. Trump insisted “you have people coming through the border that are from all over. And they’re bad. They’re really bad”. “I’m not just saying Mexicans, I’m talking about people that are from all over, that are killers, and rapists,” he said. On the wall, he said: “Mexico has not treated us well. Mexico treats us as though we are stupid people. Which, of course, our leaders are.” (afp)

The sole candidate for chief of the State Intelligence Agency (BIN) Lt Gen. (ret) Sutiyoso vowed to strengthen Indonesia’s cyber intelligence unit in a bid to tackle potential threats.

Sutiyoso pledges to strengthen cyber intelligence

JAKARTA - The sole candidate for chief of the State Intelligence Agency (BIN) Lt Gen. (ret) Sutiyoso vowed to strengthen Indonesia’s cyber intelligence unit in a bid to tackle potential threats. “Our equipment in terms of cyber intelligence still lags behind, and hence, I want to improve it,” Sutiyoso stated at the House of Representatives (DPR) complex on Tuesday. According to Sutiyoso, Indonesian cyber intelligence equipment should be on par with the other countries if Indonesia wants to have a strong and professional intelligence institution. “Indonesia should have adequate and sophisticated tools in a bid to support the performance of the BIN,” he emphasized.

He will elaborate on his priority programs in the fit and proper test including his mission and vision as the BIN head. “I am fully prepared to face the fit and proper test. I have made no special preparations,” he remarked. The Commission for Missing People and Victims of Violence (Kontras) has written to the DPR regarding the selection of Lt Gen. (ret) Sutiyoso as the sole candidate for the post of BIN chief. “Kontras regrets President Joko

Widodo’s decision to appoint Lt Gen. (ret) Sutiyoso as the sole candidate for the post of chairman of BIN,” Kontras Coordinator Haris Azhar noted in a press statement released on Wednesday. On its part, Kontras has appealed to Commission I of the DPR, as a working partner of the government in the field of defense and foreign policy, to check and reject the nomination of the former Jakarta governor for the post of BIN chief, he noted. Azhar affirmed that based on the intelligence law, BIN can provide information to the president to formulate policies and has the authority to conduct intelligence coordination

with other institutions. “If BIN is chaired by a person who has a controversial track record and is believed to have been involved in gross human rights violations, we fear that his leadership will be used as a means to nullify the legal process, disclose the truth, and rehabilitate victims,” he pointed out. Pesident Joko Widodo made assurance that he had taken into account Sutiyoso’s competence and track record prior to appointing him as the chief of BIN. “I nominated former governor of Jakarta Sutiyoso for the post of the head of BIN on the grounds that he has the required competence and a good track record,” the president stated.

Joko Widodo further noted that he had filed Sutiyoso’s name for the position after considering his sound track record in the world of military and intelligence. According to the president, Sutiyoso has adequate experience and competence to lead the BIN. Meanwhile, BIN Chief Lt Gen. Marciano Norman affirmed that he has confidence in Sutiyoso’s ability to lead and strengthen the institution. “I have no doubts about Sutiyoso’s ability to lead the institution,” Norman remarked on Tuesday. Under Sutiyoso’s leadership, he affirmed that the agency will develop and become more advanced. (ant)

19 police officers apply for anti-graft agency’s leadership posts

JAKARTA - Nineteen police officers, including six retirees, have applied for leadership posts of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), according to Betti Alisjahbana, the spokeswoman of the KPK leadership selection committee (Pansel). “From the police, there are 19 applicants, including six retirees,” she noted in a short text message on Tuesday. Other applicants include two active military officers, two military retirees, three attorneys, three judges, two from the KPK, and four journalists.

Until Monday afternoon (June 29), the committee had received applications from 496 people, including 42 women. “217 applicants have submitted the complete documents, and the documents of 64 others are almost complete,” she revealed. Based on the professions of the applicants, 78 are civil servants, 72 lecturers, 71 advocates, 59 private workers, 42 retirees, 29 entrepreneurs, 19 police officers, four military officers, 3 judges, 3 attorneys, 2 KPK officials, and four journalists. The applications will be accepted

until noon of July 3 at the latest, and the team will announce the names of the people who have cleared the selection process on July 4. The names of the selected candidates will be published on the State Secretariat’s website: www. setneg.go.id. The selection team will invite the public to give their opinions about the nominees from July 4 to August 3, 2015. “We will provide a special space on our website www.setneg.go.id for the public to give their responses,” she noted.

She expressed hope that every response will include supporting data and information. “The KPK belongs to us. Everyone needs to play a role in the selection of the KPK leadership in order to find the best,” Alisjahbana remarked. On May 21, 2015, President Joko Widodo officially appointed and announced nine women as the members of the KPK Pansel. The president appointed economic analyst Destry Damayanti and state administrative legal expert Enny Nurbayaningsih as the committee’s head and deputy head respectively.

Other members of the team include Harkristuti Haskrisnowo, a criminal law and human rights expert; Betty Alisjabana, a technology, information and management analyst; Yenti Garnasih, a money laundering and criminal law expert; noted psychologist Supri Wimbarti; Natalia Subagio, the chairwoman of Transparency International Indonesia; Diani Sadiawati, the director of legal human rights at the National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas); and Meuthia Ganie-Rochman, an expert on corruption sociology and social capital.

Japan’s UNESCO heritage bid draws ire over past labor abuse

GUNKANJIMA — Of countless ghostly abandoned factories and mines in Japan, this fortress island near Nagasaki is among the most notorious. It is also a source of national pride. Gunkanjima, or Battleship Island, is one of 23 old industrial facilities seeking UNESCO’s recognition as world heritage “Sites of Japan’s Meiji Industrial Revolution” meant to illustrate Japan’s rapid transformation from a feudal farming society into an industrial power at the end of the 19th century. UNESCO’s World Heritage Committee is expected to approve the proposal during a meeting being held in Bonn, Germany, through July 9 after Japan and South Korea informally agreed on a promise to acknowledge, though it is unclear how, that Koreans were among the people who toiled at Gunkanjima and some other sites. The compromise also includes an agreement by Japan to support South Korean proposals for some world heritage site listings. Japan’s bid for UNESCO recognition is confined to the 1968-1912 era of the Meiji Emperor, who presided over the country’s rush to industrialize and catch up with Western colonial powers. It excludes the years that followed, when Japan annexed Korea and eventually invaded China and other parts of Asia before and during World War II. The proposal makes no mention of the grim interlude when, toward the war’s end, tens of thousands of Koreans, and also Chinese and foreign prisoners of war were forced to toil under dire conditions in Japanese factories and mines. But both the government and most Japanese companies have insisted that post-war reparations have left them with no further responsibility to apologize or compensate for those abuses. Plans to acknowledge the wartime forced labor in what originally was meant to be just a “feel good” approach to history could help alleviate friction with Japan’s neighbors, said Andrew Gordon, a historian at Harvard University. But, he added, “It’s not just forced labor. “There’s terrible working conditions, and there’s strikes and there’s a whole social history that’s part of it, and if it’s just going to be glossed over, left as a footnote or even left out, then that’s an equally big problem,” he said. The UNESCO stamp of approval would boost tourism in Nagasaki, a rust-belt city that has yet to benefit much from Japan’s stuttering economic recovery. The sites proposed to UNESCO for recognition include shipyards and steel works, ports, mines, industrial furnaces, docks and a huge crane still used at Mitsubishi’s main shipyard in Nagasaki. Such “Industrial Tourism,” also is seen as a way to revive pride in

Japan’s manufacturing prowess after two decades of economic stagnation. Gunkanjima, officially known as Hashima, lacks fresh water, is just 6.3 hecares (16 acres) in total area and was uninhabited until coal was discovered there about 200 years ago. The Mitsubishi industrial group acquired the island 15 kilometers (9 miles) from Nagasaki in the late 1800s, digging ever deeper under the sea while reclaiming land above. Residents lived in a citadel of highrise apartment buildings, the first in Japan built with steel-reinforced concrete, which stood behind sea walls that sometimes were no match for typhoons pounding in from the East China Sea. Eventually, undersea pipes funneled water and electricity to the about 5,000 residents living in what once was the most densely crowded place on the planet — a community with a cinema, hospital, school, swimming pool and many other amenities typical of life elsewhere in Japan. For Doutoku Sakamoto and others who once called Gunkanjima home, the designation could lend deeper meaning for their own displacement in 1974, when Mitsubishi closed and sealed the mine and vacated the island as Japan’s national energy policy shifted toward

greater reliance on oil imports. “It was the thing more precious than human lives, the coal,” Sakamoto told a group of tourists recently visiting the island, where he lived as a teenager and now leads tours through its deserted ruins. Before it opened to public tours in 2009, visitors mainly were former residents or “haikyo,” or ruins explorers who documented the island’s hauntingly emptied apartments and crumbling walls. Sakamoto helped launch the drive to win world heritage status for Gunkanjima. He sees the island as a stark reminder of the costs of modernization, and as a warning example of the potential consequences of unsustainable development. “This is a lesson from history, something to learn about the future. Is this the kind of future we want?” Sakamoto said. The island’s heyday in the 1950s and ‘60s came after its coal output already peaked. It was ramped up to power steel mills and shipyards during World War II, when, with so many Japanese men fighting in the military, the wartime government forcibly brought Koreans to work there. Under the rigid military regime of the time, escape was nearly impossible, from the island and from the other sites. (ap)

Heavy rains in central China kill 15, leave 19 missing

BEIJING — Four days of heavy rain have caused severe flooding in central China, killing at least 15 people and leaving 19 others missing. China’s Ministry of Civil Affairs said Tuesday that the 15 people died from drowning, mudslides and house collapses. It said up to 51.4 centimeters (20 inches) of rain fell in the eastern province of Jiangsu from Friday to Monday and that water levels of rivers and lakes were dangerously high in a six-province region. The ministry said millions of people have been affected by the heavy rains since Friday. (ap)

EU official: Hungary’s immigrant flow like in Italy, Greece

BUDAPEST — The European Union’s top migration official says the pressure faced by Hungary from flows of migrants and refugees is similar to what Greece and Italy are facing with migration across the Mediterranean Sea. EU commissioner for migration Dimitris Avramopoulos also said Tuesday that unilateral solutions to the rising migration flow “will only shift the problem to the next neighboring country, it will not solve it.” At the same time, he said that each EU country had the right to protect its own borders. Hungary has announced that it plans to build a 4-meter (13-foot) -high fence on its southern border with Serbia to stem the arrival of migrants. Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said after his meeting with Avramopoulos that over 67,000 illegal migrants have entered Hungary so far this year. (ap)

38 dead... From page 1 The crew of the plane, which had been transporting military supplies to airbases, reportedly consisted of three pilots, one navigator and eight technicians. The crash was in a newly built residential area and officials said it was unclear how many people were in the buildings at the time of the accident. “The bodies have been crushed by debris of the buildings and the fuselage,” said local police chief Mardiaz Dwihananto, adding they were being ferried one by one to hospital. Military spokesman Fuad Basya said the plane took off at 12:08 pm (0508 GMT) from an air force base and crashed in the city about two minutes later, about five kilometres (three miles) from the base. It was the second time in a decade that Medan had suffered a fatal plane accident. A Mandala Airlines domestic flight crashed shortly after takeoff in 2005 into a densely populated suburb, killing at least 150 including passengers, crew and people on the ground. Medan is the biggest Indonesian city outside the main island of Java and a major economic centre. The Indonesian air force has suffered accidents before. At least 11 people were killed when a Fokker-27 military jet crashed into a housing complex in the capital Jakarta in June 2012. In April an F-16 fighter jet caught fire as it was about to take off from an airbase in Jakarta, prompting the pilot to jump to safety as flames and thick smoke engulfed the plane. The pilot escaped with minor injuries from the jet, which had been due to provide security at a summit of Asian and African leaders in Indonesia. Indonesia also has a poor civil aviation safety record, and has suffered many fatal crashes in the past. An Indonesia AirAsia plane crashed in December en route from Indonesia’s Surabaya to Singapore, killing all 162 people on board. (afp)

SINGARAJA - Les waterfall is located in Les village, 38 kilometer south to Singaraja, in the north Bali. The waterfall is overlooking green hills and untouched nature. The height is about 30 meters. In addition, Les Village is also famous for its very amazing beach with its magnificent underwater world view. Located some 90 kilometers north of Denpasar, Les is blessed with a majestic waterfall and rich underwater scenery at its beach. The best way to reach Les is by rented or private car or motorcycle, so visitors can stop where they want to take photos. The shortest route from Denpasar to Les is through Gianyar and Kintamani, where visitors can stop to enjoy the wonderful Lake Batur and mountain views while sipping hot Balinese coffee outside Pura Puncak Panulisan, a temple. The waterfall is about 1 kilometer from the village’s main road. Visitors can park at the entrance gate, where a few shops sell snacks and souvenirs, before walking along a path to an open area next to a wide river, with a small stream of water and huge rocks. After crossing the river, a similar footpath leads to the waterfall. The 30-meter-high waterfall has a perfect slope so the water from the river jumps from one rock to another before eventually hitting the bottom of the land more gently. Visitors can stand under the waterfall and enjoy the sensation of a natural massage of the water pounding on their head, neck and back while trying to become one with the surroundings and listening to the great voice of the waterfall.

LONDON — As has become customary for Serena Williams of late, she got off to a rocky start. In her first-round match at Wimbledon on Monday, Williams dropped three of the first four games. She slipped and nearly did the splits, tumbling to the turf. She was warned for using foul language. And, as has also become customary for Williams, she wound up with a victory. The No. 1-seeded Williams extended her pursuit of a fourth consecutive major title and her bid for a calendar-year Grand Slam, too, by taking 11 of the last 13 games to beat 113th-ranked qualifier Margarita Gasparyan 6-4, 6-1. Williams has won her past 22 Grand Slam matches. “There are a lot of expectations on her shoulders at the moment,” said Williams’ coach, Patrick Mouratoglou. “It took her maybe six games to get going. At 3-all, she started to relax and play. And then there was no match.” Gasparyan came in 0-3 in tourlevel matches and was making her Wimbledon main-draw debut. “When I (saw) her before match,” Gasparyan said, “I thought, ‘Oh, my God. I’m playing Serena.’” Yet the 20-year-old Russian played unafraid at the outset, and her one-handed backhand withstood Williams’ power for about a halfhour. Then, Gasparyan explained, Williams began playing “unbelievable,” taking five straight games and 22 of 29 points in one stretch. It was, otherwise, a mostly routine Day 1 for the biggest

names on the schedule. Defending champion Novak Djokovic — and the player he lost to in the French Open final this month, No. 4 Stan Wawrinka — won in straight sets. So did 2004 Wimbledon champion Maria Sharapova and two other major title winners and former No. 1-ranked women, Victoria Azarenka and Ana Ivanovic. Williams improved to 33-1 in 2015, competing for the first time since winning her 20th Grand Slam singles trophy at the French Open. En route to that title, Williams lost the opening set in four matches. There, Mouratoglou said, “she had to dig deep to find a way to get her real level,” in part because Williams was dealing with an illness. On Monday, the cause for the poor beginning was twofold, he said: Williams hadn’t played on grass since she was at the All England Club a year ago, and she felt some nerves. Really? Jitters?

“Of course she’s nervous, because she cares. She wants to do well. She wants to win, and she wants it really bad,” Mouratoglou said. “If after all these years, she

wouldn’t be nervous, it would mean, probably, that she would not care enough to keep on playing.” If, a fortnight from now, the 33-year-old Williams were to win Wimbledon for a sixth time, she would be the oldest women’s major champion in the Open era of professional tennis, which began in 1968. She also would complete a self-styled “Serena Slam” of four major titles in a row, something she pulled off in 2002-03. “It’s definitely historic, I guess. But it’s also six matches away,” Williams said. “It’s definitely not guaranteed.” And she would head to the U.S. Open with a chance to become the first player since Steffi Graf in 1988 to win all four majors in a single season. “It’s a pretty good chance,” Williams’ older sister, Venus, said about the prospect of a true Grand Slam. “Hasn’t been done that often. But then again, she’s done a lot of things that haven’t been done that often.” Venus Williams, whose seven Grand Slam titles include five at Wimbledon, could say the same about herself, including Monday’s 6-0, 6-0 victory over 36th-ranked Madison Brengle of the U.S. (ap)

TOKYO — Tokyo organizers of the 2020 Olympics have been asked to finalize plans for the main stadium by the International Olympic Committee after it was confirmed that building costs have almost doubled. IOC President Thomas Bach told the head of the organizing committee to finalize the plan before an IOC meeting in late July, Toshiaki Endo, the newly appointed minister in charge of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, said at a press conference on Tuesday. The Japanese government said on Monday it expects the overall costs of building the new National Stadium, also the showpiece venue for the 2019 Rugby World Cup, to soar to $2 billion, up from the original estimate of $1.3 billion. The Tokyo municipal government has been bickering with the central

government over how costs will be shared. Tokyo Olympics organizers hoped costs could be reduced, but a decision to stick with the original design by British-Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid means costs can’t be cut. Two massive arches that form the backbone of the stadium’s roof, a feature that critics blamed for raising construction costs, will remain part of the design. To slash construction and other costs, officials have proposed delaying the building of a retractable roof until after the Olympics, and making 15,000 out of the 80,000 spectator seats temporary. Construction will likely begin in October. The government is considering ways to generate funding. (ap)

Dutch FA terminates Hiddink’s contract as coach

THE HAGUE — The Dutch football federation terminated the contract of national team coach Guus Hiddink on Monday, ending his second stint in charge after just one disappointing season. The KNVB said that Hiddink’s contract will now end on Wednesday. It had been set to last through next year’s European Championship. Hiddink took over after Louis van Gaal led the Netherlands to third place at last year’s World Cup, but the Netherlands have had a poor qualifying campaign for Euro 2016 so far. It sits third in Group A, behind leader Iceland and the Czech Republic. “It’s a shame that it went this way,” Hiddink said in a statement released by the KNVB. “It was an honor to coach the Netherlands team again and I wish my successor, the staff and the squad every success on their way to the European Championship in France.” KNVB director Bert van Oostveen said he regretted the move. “Sadly, the results of Guus’ work were not immediately visible to everybody,” he said. Hiddink’s assistant, Danny Blind, was set to replace him after Euro 2016, but was not immediately named to take over Monday. Instead, the KNVB said it was considering how to fill the vacancy left by Hiddink’s early exit. Hiddink, who led the Netherlands to the semifinals of the World Cup in France in 1998 in his first stint as national coach, never managed to build on the success of Van Gaal’s World Cup campaign and left the job with a record of five losses, four victories and a draw. Monday’s announcement marked one of the lowest points in the 68-year-old Hiddink’s storied international coaching career. After taking the Netherlands to the semifinals in France, he repeated the feat with unfancied South Korea in 2002 when the country co-hosted the tournament with Japan. Hiddink is still revered in South Korea, where statues of him were built after the 2002 World Cup and where he was named an honorary citizen of the capital, Seoul. He continued his run of international successes by leading Australia in 2006 to only its second qualification for the World Cup. Australia lost in the round of 16 to Italy, which went on to win the tournament. He also guided Russia to the European Championship semifinal in 2008, coached Turkey’s national team and won the European Cup with PSV Eindhoven in 1988. (ap)

Vargas double takes hosts Chile into Copa final hosts in a pulsating first half. But just when it looked like the teams would go in all square at half time Chile took the lead when striker Vargas poked the ball home from three yards after an Alexis Sanchez cross had come back off the post. Te l e v i s i o n r e p l a y s showed Vargas was marginally offside, but justice seemed to be done seconds into the second half when he had what looked like a legitimate goal chalked off for offside. Peru came back into the game and equalised on the hour mark when Guerrero split the Chilean defence with a pass for Luis Advincula. He whipped in a cross from the right that Gary Medel turned into his own net. Peru’s lead lasted just four minutes, however, and again it was Vargas who did the damage as he picked up the ball in midfield and

2017 Champions League final at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium

PRAGUE — The Champions League final will be played in Wales for the first time in 2017 at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium. The venue, with around 74,000 seats, was awarded the hosting rights by UEFA’s executive committee at a meeting on Tuesday in Prague, after unsuccessfully bidding for matches at the pancontinent 2020 European Championship. The decision comes with Wales on the verge of reaching the European Championship for the first time, as it tops its 2016 qualifying group. “These are exciting times for Welsh football,” Real Madrid and Wales forward Gareth Bale said. “I know how passionate the Welsh football fans are, so it’s great the UEFA Champions League final is coming to my home city of Cardiff.

SANTIAGO - Chile took another step towards their dream of winning a first Copa America on home soil with a 2-1 win over Peru on Monday but Eduardo Vargas’ match-winning double was overshadowed by an early refereeing decision that turned the game the hosts’ way. Carlos Zambrano’s harsh sending off for a high tackle after 20 minutes was the second game in a row that Chile’s rivals have been hit with controversial red cards. The decision was a hard one to swallow for Peru, who in spite of being underdogs had started well in front of a capacity crowd at Santiago’s National Stadium. “I think Zambrano’s expulsion was a bit tough,” Peru striker Paolo Guerrero told television cameras. “I don’t want to complain about the refereeing but there were a lot of unexpected decisions. If it had been 11 against 11 it would have been a different story.” Chile’s opponents in last week’s quarter-final, Uruguay, were reduced to nine men in controversial fashion with Edinson Cavani and Jorge Fucile being sent off in Santiago. Cavani’s red card came after Chile defender Gonzalo Jara stuck his finger up the striker’s backside and when he responded with the slightest of touches Jara fell to the ground theatrically, prompting the referee to send the Uruguayan off. Chile got the decisive goal shortly after. Jara later had a three-game ban for provoking Cavani cut to two by the governing body of South American football. Peru refused to cave in after Zambrano’s dismissal and matched their

“I loved playing in the UEFA Super Cup last year, and it would be fantastic to be involved in front of a packed crowd at such an iconic stadium in 2017.” The game will be played on June 3, 2017, with the women’s final at Cardiff City Stadium two days earlier. Stockholm has also been awarded a UEFA showpiece match after missing out on Euro 2020 matches, with the Europa League in May 2017 going to Friends Arena. The 2017 Super Cup between the winners of the two UEFA club competitions will be in Skopje, Macedonia, at Philip II Arena. In 2016, the Champions League final will be at Milan’s San Siro, and the Europa League final at St. Jakob-Park in the Swiss city of Basel. (ap)

Chile’s Eduardo Vargas celebrates his second goal against Peru during their Copa America 2015 semi-final soccer match at the National Stadium in Santiago, Chile, June 29, 2015.

SANTIAGO - Chile defender Gonzalo Jara’s ban for provoking Edinson Cavani has been cut from three games to two, the governing body of South American football said on Monday. “After hearing the appeal CONMEBOL decided to reduce the sanction ... to two games,” the organisation explained in a statement. The suspension still means Jara will miss Monday’s Copa America semi-final against Peru and the final or third/fourthplace playoff. The player’s fine was also reduced from $7,500 to $5,000. Jara received his ban for “unsporting behaviour” after he stuck

his finger up Cavani’s backside in the quarter-final win over Uruguay last week. Cavani responded to the provocation with the slightest of touches and Jara fell to the ground theatrically, prompting the referee to send the Uruguayan off. Chile scored the only goal of the game soon after. A second Uruguayan was shown a red card two minutes before the final whistle, leading to scuffles between players and officials from both sides. CONMEBOL said it would decide after the tournament whether to sanction Uruguayan players for their part in the incidents. (rtr)

LONDON - Manchester United have made a 28.6 million pound ($45 million) bid for Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos, British media reported on Monday. Media reports said the 29year-old Spain international was keen to move to Old Trafford, despite having two years left on his Real

contract. United manager Louis van Gaal is seeking to shore up the Premier League club’s defence to help improve on last season’s fourth-place finish. United confirmed earlier on Monday that defender Phil Jones had signed a contract extension until at least 2019. (rtr)

FILE - In this Sunday, May 24, 2015 file photo, Chelsea’s goalkeeper Petr Cech makes a save during the English Premier League soccer match between Chelsea and Sunderland at Stamford Bridge stadium in London.

Goalkeeper Petr Cech joins Arsenal from Chelsea

Petr Cech ended his trophyfilled, 11-year stay at Chelsea by signing for Premier League rival Arsenal on Monday, with the goalkeeper reluctantly deciding to leave the English champions after losing his starting place. In another major coup in the transfer market, Arsenal bought the 33-year-old Cech for a reported fee about 11 million pounds ($17.3 million) after Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich granted the Czech Republic international the chance to revive his career while staying in the Premier League. “I thought this would never happen,” Cech said in an open letter to Chelsea fans, “but it is time for me to say goodbye to Chelsea. The club I have lived every single minute for since joining in July 2004, the club in which I thought I’d hang my gloves and boots one day and finish my career. “But life doesn’t always turn out the way you think it will.” Cech’s debut for Arsenal could come against Chelsea on Aug. 2 in the FA Community Shield— the traditional curtain-raiser in the English season between the league champions and FA Cup winners of

the previous campaign. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has secured the highprofile signings of Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez in the last two offseasons, and Cech’s arrival could help the north London club move a step closer to a first Premier League title since 2004. Goalkeeper has been a problem area for Arsenal in recent years, and Cech is the most authoritative and experienced keeper the club has had since Jens Lehmann or even David Seaman further back. “Petr Cech is a player that I have admired for a long time and I am very pleased that he has decided to join us,” Wenger said. “He has proven over many seasons that he is one of the outstanding keepers in the world and he will add great strength to our squad.” Cech, a mainstay of the most successful period in Chelsea’s history, lost his place to young Belgian Thibaut Courtois last season but said it was only during the campaign that he realized it was time to look for a new challenge. He won four Premier League

titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups, one Champions League and one Europa League title at Chelsea after joining from French club Rennes. “The limited playing time gave me the chance to refresh and rest mentally as well as make me realize just how much I enjoy playing football at the highest level,” Cech said. “That’s why I spoke to Mr. Abramovich about me staying in the Premier League and I’d like to thank him from the bottom of my heart for his support in this matter.” After the departures of Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba, Cech is another experienced member of Chelsea’s squad to leave and captain John Terry has said that the goalkeeper will be worth “12 to 15 points a season” to Arsenal. Arsenal was third in the Premier League last season, finishing 12 points behind Chelsea. Cech’s move threatens the futures of goalkeepers David Ospina and Wojciech Szczesny at Arsenal, with Ospina having only joined a year ago. In a statement confirming the departure of Cech, Chelsea described him as an “icon.” (ap)
