【新唐人2012年10月17日讯】习近平拟差额选常委
据《大纪元》新闻网报导，中共下届领导人习近平打算在十八大上，采用“差额选举”来选定中共政治局常委、委员和中央委员。
报导说，目前流传的各种中共18大“入常名单”版本，基本上是各派为促成自己的人“入围”而推出的“名单”，中共18大“常委名单”目前并没有定论。不过习近平倾向于以这些名单为基础，形成“候选人名单”，最后在十八大上由“差额选举”定夺。形成表面上，最高领导人不全来自“钦点”，而给所谓的“政改”一个“从上至下”的说法。
据报导，胡锦涛、习近平已经秘密在中共高层进行了一场“民主摸底”，据说，这次“民主摸底”给出了俞正声、张德江、张高丽、刘云山、汪洋、刘延东、王岐山等十多位政治局常委“候选人”，然后由大约350名正省部级高级官员组成投票班子，选出习近平、李克强之外的另外5名政治局常委。而选举的结果让习近平、胡锦涛信心大增。
法广：薄熙来人大资格 最快下周褫夺
中共喉舌媒体报导，中共人大常委会10月23号至26号召开会议，议程包括审议“个别代表的代表资格”。这次会议与前几次会议相比，在时间上罕见的提前。
《法国国际广播电台》发文分析说，会议应该与薄熙来案有关，估计薄熙来的全国人大代表资格将在会议上被正式褫夺，同时，中共的这个行动，也预示着薄熙来案可能在11月8号召开的“十八大”前，进入司法程序。

但香港《明镜周刊》15号报导，薄熙来案将会在湖南的省会城市长沙审理。《香港商业电台》也引述重庆政界的消息说，薄熙来可能15号接受刑事审讯，地点最有可能是湖南长沙。

据日本《朝日新闻》报导，日本“丰田汽车”10月22号至26号，将关闭在中国大陆最大的装配厂—-“天津工厂”的部分生产线。报导说，“丰田”做出这一决定的原因，是因为中日钓鱼岛的争端，导致大陆的日本汽车需求量暴跌。
