On the rowing course Jeremy Toljan Jersey , the 2016 Rio Olympic bronze medalist Duan Jingli defended her title at the women's single sculls with a time of seven minutes and 32.49 seconds, edging Chen Yunxia of Shanghai to the second place by nearly four seconds.

"I always think I am capable of winning the crown," she said, "but I am also impressed by the performances of Chen and Wu when I realize that they are four or five years younger than me."


This is the first major event the 28-year-old Duan participated in after the 2016 Games and she only trained for three months Jadon Sancho Jersey , not to mention the lingering injuries.


"I believe that we'll prepare for the Tokyo Olympic Games together in the future," she added.

WELLINGTON, March 26 (Xinhua) -- Opposition to the New Zealand government's trade policies mounted Thursday as critics claimed new international agreements were undermining the country's democracy and sovereignty.


The focus was thrown on to two completed agreements -- the free trade agreement (FTA) with the Republic of Korea and a World Trade Organization-brokered Government Procurement Agreement -- as well as the ongoing secret negotiations of the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership.


On Monday Trade Minister Tim Groser signed the FTA in Seoul to criticism that its investor-state dispute provisions would allow big corporations to sue the government over laws and regulations that affected their profits.


Parliament's Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Select Committee announced Thursday it was inviting submissions of the agreement before it was discussed by lawmakers.


However, trade unions blasted the committee after it refused to hear submissions on the Government Procurement Agreement, which they argue will enable big foreign corporations to lock smaller local businesses out of government contracts.


"This sets a terrible precedent for future international agreements Eric Oelschlagel Jersey , which increasingly impede our sovereignty and our ability to improve social and economic conditions for working people," Council of Trade Unions secretary Sam Huggard said in a statement.


"MOCKERY OF DEMOCRACY"


New Zealand's treaty approval process was so bad that public did not even have the opportunity to comment on an agreement after its signing.


"The process is a mockery of democracy in any case, because it leaves virtually all the power to sign with Cabinet -- only changes in legislation go to Parliam.
