Anilao

Anilao Proper and Anilao East are two barangays in the municipality of Mabini, Batangas, the Philippines. They are located south of Manila on the large island of Luzon, at the southern end of the Calumpang Peninisula facing Maribacan Island. However, Anilao is now frequently used as a generic term for Mabini, Tingloy, and Bauan.
Geography.
The municipality of Mabini is a 32-kilometer stretch of rocky coastline with a land area of 4,296 hectares dominated by green hills and valleys. It is also characterized by a lack of rivers, so farmers need to rely on rainwater or wells for irrigation. The coastline is steep and the mountains fall abruptly in the ocean facing the Maricaban island in the south. In the North, Anilao connects after Bauan with the Taal volcano area.
The western coast of Mabini is part of the Balayan bay, the eastern coast is part of the Batangas bay. The southern part of Mabini points toward Maribacan Island and connects with the Verde Island passage.
Economics.
The main economic activity of Anilao used to be fishing. Overfishing and in particular i) cyanide fishing which started in the 1960s to collect fish for aquariums as well as for the live food export to high end restaurants with China as a prime market, and ii) dynamite fishing for food fish led to reef bleaching and to the depletion of the marine environment. Marine protection measures have been implemented as a possible way to reverse this situation, but overfishing is still an issue.
Anilao principal economic resource is now tourism. Resorts are now populating the western Mabini coast. Agriculture is limited due to the lack of rivers in Mabini.
Tourism.
Anilao is well known for its underwater sports and trekking. The northwest shore of the Calumpang Peninsula, from Anilao to Bagalangit, is lined with local resorts that cater primarily to local tourists. Although the beach at Anilao is not recommended for swimming, thatched bamboo rafts, rustic cabins and picnic cabanas are available for rental at local resorts. From these resorts, one can also rent a boat for island hopping and visit the diving spots, coves, and islands like the Sombrero island (a hat-shaped rocky island surrounded with white sand) and Maricaban island.
Underwater sports.
Anilao is popular with scuba divers, freedivers and snorkelers. It is considered the birthplace of scuba diving in the Philippines. The waters surrounding the area are teeming with marine life, plenty of corals, nudibranchs and amazing diversity of fishes.
Anilao has gained an international reputation for muck diving and underwater macro photography with world class competitions and workshops being organized every year. The rise of the diving sector has led to infrastructure benefits for the Anilao resident community.
Windsurfing and kayaking gradually developed as a follow-up of scuba diving.
Trekking.
Trekking together with camping in the wild is another popular activity in Anilao mountains. Climbing Mt. Gulugod Baboy (“pig’s spine”) is considered a must to discover the view up to Taal volcano. This easy trek includes three hills: Pinagbanderahan, Gitna, and Gulugod Baboy culminating 525 meters (1,722 ft) above sea level. From its summit, one can get a view of Balayan Bay, Maricaban Islands, and, on a clear day, Verde Island and even Abra de Ilog in Occidental Mindoro.
The main commercial activity is located in Anilao, there are some scattered convenience stores and small local eateries along the National road. Tourism and activities tend to be clustered around resorts, there are little independent restaurants around. After 08:00 PM, the place is usually very quiet, since the locals tend to start their day early after sunrise.
Marine life.
The marine conservation story of Anilao began with the work of the Haribon Foundation. In 1991, the first marine sanctuaries were created in Bagalangit and San Teodoro. The year 1998 marked the second wave of such marine conservation efforts.
Anilao features a great diversity of colorful and healthy marine life including turtles, corals, barrel sponges, macro photography subjects such as underwater critters inc. Colemani shrimps, Bobbit worms, cowries and nudibranch (563 species already identified). There is a great diversity of rare fishes, notably pygmy sea-horses, rhinopias, hairy frog fish. Different types of octopus can be seen including Mimic, Wonderpus and blue ringed octopus. Most species on the muck and macro diving critter wish list can be found in Anilao. One should be wary of stonefish in shallow waters.
The reef is very healthly and a large variety of soft and hard corals can be observed in shallow and deeper waters. Bigger fish, barracudas and sand sharks, are prevalent in areas where currents are stronger, especially around Mainit Point, in the Maricaban Strait. Large schools of jacks, giant seahorses and moray eels can also be spotted. Dolphins and endangered small whale sharks have been seen occasionally.
Threats to the Anilao marine life include overfishing, insufficient waste management, too lenient sewers management enforcement and the rejects from the large cargos that ply this route. Despite the adoption of coastal cleaning as a provincial annual event, regular beach cleaning remains an issue as many of them are littered with debris, especially plastics.

Altanbulag (, "golden spring") is a sum (district) of Selenge Province in northern Mongolia. It is located about 25 km from the provincial capital of Sükhbaatar, on the border with Russia opposite the town of Kyakhta. Altanbulag is the location of the Altanbulag Free Trade Zone (, "Altanbulag khudaldaany Chölööt büs").
History.
Altanbulag began as a trading outpost across the Kyakhta River from the Russian town of Kyakhta during Qing rule of Mongolia in 1730. The name of that city was called Maimaicheng (Mongolian: Худалдаачин, English: City of Buying and Selling) at the first and later renamed to Kyakhta (Mongolian: Khiagt). Also people used other names such as "Mongolian Khyahta" and "Southern Kyakhata".
Following the Treaty of Kyakhta in 1727 each side built a trading post on its side of the border. Construction began in 1730. It was perhaps 500 to 700 feet south of Kyakhta, upstream on the small Kyakhta River. The town was square, with wooden walls and, after 1756, a three-foot wide ditch. Each wall had a gate which led to two major streets which intersected in the center. Each gate had a 25-foot watchtower manned by members of the Mongol garrison. The main avenues were about 25 feet wide, but the other streets and alleys were narrow. The larger houses had interior courtyards where trading was done. These courtyards were generally better kept than the public areas. The southwestern quarter of town was occupied by "Bukharans" as the Russians called traders from Central Asia. Women were forbidden to live in the town, apparently to keep Chinese merchants from becoming permanent residents. The rule was evaded but still in force in 1908. The post was administered by the 'Dzgarguchei' who was replaced by the Lifanyuan every two years. For some purposes the Dzarguchei dealt with the Tushetu Khan in Urga who was partly supervised by a Manchu resident.
On 13 March 1921, a Soviet-backed People's Provisional Government of Mongolia was established at Altanbulag. This government went on to oust the government of Roman Ungern von Sternberg and later formed the Mongolian People's Republic in 1924.

Kerben, Kyrgyzstan

Kerben (, older name "Karavan") is a town in Jalal-Abad Region of Kyrgyzstan. Its population was 14,141 in 2009. It is the administrative centre of Aksy District.
Despite the fact that the town officially was founded in the early 1920s, medieval Persian historiographers noted in their works a caravanserai, or fortified “hotel” for merchants and travelers, in a place very close to today's Kerben. Archaeological excavations carried out by A. Bernshtam corroborated that records.
Kerben gained notoriety in 2002 when police fired into a crowd of unarmed demonstrators, killing six. The demonstrations were triggered by a political dispute between a local member of the national parliament, Azimbek Beknazarov, and Kyrgyz President Askar Akayev over an agreement with China that ceded some territory in the high Tien Shan range to China. Local officials and police officers suspected of being involved in the shootings were later acquitted or pardoned.
Beknazarov remained an implacable political enemy of Akayev. In the wake of the March 2005 Tulip Revolution which sent Akayev into exile in Russia, he was appointed Prosecutor General of the Kyrgyz Republic and waged a determined campaign against Akayev and his family, seeking the return of much of the fortune amassed by the former president's family and a repeal of Akayev's immunity for life. He resigned his position in September 2005 under a cloud of suspicion concerning alleged secret deals of money for premature closure of investigations into other misdeeds.
Kerben is located in the nation's northwest, some 220 km from the regional centre Jalal-Abad and 60 km from the Tash-Kumyr town railway. Kerben borders in the southwest with the village of Nanai in Uzbekistan.
