But I am happy that the Minister of Aviation, Mr. Festus Keyamo, has taken it up because if it is ever implemented from January next year, airlines would die. They would just die. It has never been done anywhere before,” he said.</p><p>He stated that the profit margin in airline business is very slim yet the Nigerian carriers are often stigmatised.</p><p>“If you invest $100 million in aviation, maybe at the end of the day you are expecting 3% profit or 5% profit. If you take $100 million to agriculture or to importation, you may get up to 70% profit at the end of the day.</p><p>“So it is not as if you do not make profit at all, but what is the margin of this profit? Again, taxation. The airline is going to have a tax death. We pay a lot of charges. And I keep on saying it, and I will say it as AON. The 5% we pay for ticket fares to the NCAA is affecting the airlines.</p><p>“Because you don’t make 5% gain. And they will tell you, that money does not belong to you. It is the money you’re collecting from passengers, on behalf of us. No. It is already limiting your ability to charge for the tickets. You can collect it directly from the passenger, so that whatever we collect from passengers will belong to us.</p><p>“So I am not saying that we should not pay anything to the government, but it has to be cost recovery. Even the ICAO principle is about cost recovery. What we are doing here today, is a matter of legislation. The 5% has been legislated.”</p><p> <small>Sponsored</small><p>News Update: Nigerians have now been approved to get paid in US Dollars, acquire Ultra-premium domains for as low as $1700 and profit $15,000 (₦24Million naira).

3237909	无图 <p>NRC, Follow the Money en Omroep Gelderland, willen demissionair minister Wiersma (Landbouw) met een kort geding dwingen de uitstootgegevens van landbouwbedrijven vrij te geven. Dat hebben de drie mediaorganisaties in een persbericht laten weten.</p> <p>De nieuwsmedia proberen sinds 2022 gegevens te krijgen over alle Nederlandse veehouderijen. Met een totaalbeeld van de dierenaantallen en de locatie van de stallen kunnen journalisten onderzoek doen naar de effectiviteit van het stikstofbeleid.</p> <p>Ze vroegen de cijfers op via de Wet open overheid (Woo). "Wiersma weigert de data vrij te geven, hoewel haar ambtsvoorganger Piet Adema en ambtenaren bij uitvoeringsdienst RVO al eerder hadden besloten de data wel te openbaren", schrijven NRC, Follow the Money en Omroep Gelderland. Volgens hen trok de RVO de beslissing in januari na tussenkomst van Wiersma in.</p> <p>De BBB-minister legde een dringend rapport van het Adviescollege Openbaarheid en Informatiehuishouding (ACOI), dat haar maande de informatie wel te openbaren, naast zich neer. Ook ging Wiersma in beroep tegen een uitspraak van de bestuursrechter in Overijssel. Die had geoordeeld dat de bemoeienis van Wiersma met openbaringsbesluiten "misbruik van bevoegdheden" was.</p> Brieven naar veehouders <p>Wiersma kwam met het plan om alle veehouders in Nederland, inclusief hobbyisten, een brief te sturen, zodat ze bezwaar kunnen maken tegen de openbaarmaking van de gegevens. Volgens het ACOI is dat niet nodig, omdat de gegevens volgens de wet sowieso openbaar moeten worden, ongeacht de bezwaren.</p> <p>Wiersma"s plan betekent daarbij een vertraging van zes maanden tot een jaar, vrezen de drie nieuwsorganisaties. Bovendien zou de hele operatie tussen de 5 en 14 miljoen euro kosten.</p> <p>Met het kort geding hopen de mediaorganisaties de demissionaire minister te dwingen de wet na te leven en de uitstootgegevens zo snel mogelijk te publiceren, op last van hoge dwangsommen. "We kunnen er blijkbaar niet op vertrouwen dat deze minister zich aan de wet houdt. Het niet publiceren van de gevraagde informatie is onrechtmatig", schrijven hoofdredacteuren Sandrina Hadderingh (Omroep Gelderland), Harry Lensink (Follow the Money) en Patricia Veldhuis (NRC).</p> <p>"Het is onze journalistieke taak om het publiek zo goed mogelijk te informeren. Daarbij is de Woo belangrijk gereedschap voor onze journalisten", staat in het persbericht.</p> <p>Een woordvoerder van Wiersma laat weten dat bij hen officieel nog niets bekend is over de procedure en dat ze zodoende eerst afwachten en nu niet reageren. Wel laat de woordvoerder weten dat het de intentie is van de minister om "zorgvuldigheid in het proces te brengen en niet om het openbaren van gegevens tegen te houden".</p> Nieuwsmedia spannen kort geding aan tegen Wiersma om stikstofdata te krijgen	查看 2814	荷兰国家广播电视台	2025-08-08 18:18:29 2025-08-09 01:30:45	word

3237905	无图 <p>Astronomen denken een nieuwe planeet te hebben ontdekt bij een van onze buursterren. Niet eentje waar leven op zou kunnen bestaan, maar toch is de vondst bijzonder, zegt sterrenkundige Lucas Ellerbroek. "Vooral omdat het gelukt is het hemellichaam in beeld te brengen."</p> <p>Of de stip, die is waargenomen door de James Webb-telescoop, echt een planeet is, moet nog wel door onafhankelijke waarnemingen worden bevestigd.</p> <p>Planeten bij andere sterren worden exoplaneten genoemd. Er zijn er sinds 1992 bijna 6000 van ontdekt, maar zelden staan die zo relatief dichtbij als deze. De nieuwe exoplaneet met de naam S1 is een gasreus, zoals Jupiter, en draait om de ster Alpha Centauri A.</p> <p>Dat maakt dit nieuws spannend voor sciencefiction-liefhebbers. De fictieve maan Pandora, waar de Avatar-films zich afspelen, draait om precies zo"n gasreus en ook nog eens bij diezelfde ster, Alpha Centauri A.</p> Kosmische achtertuin <p>Ook voor sterrenkundigen spreekt de vondst tot de verbeelding, zegt Ellerbroek. Alleen al omdat Alpha Centauri A een van onze buursterren is, ook al ligt die nog steeds vier jaar vliegen met de snelheid van het licht.</p> <p>"Dat de ster zich in onze kosmische achtertuin bevindt, maakt in de toekomst meer onderzoek mogelijk. Dit belooft veel goeds, al zijn er ook limieten aan wat er zelfs met de beste telescopen mogelijk is", relativeert de sterrenkundige.</p> <p>Er zijn meerdere manieren om exoplaneten te vinden. In dit geval is een direct imaging-techniek gebruikt. Door een masker over de ster heen te plaatsen worden veel donkerder objecten in de buurt zichtbaar.</p> <p>Dat het is gelukt, is extra knap, gezien alle achtergrondruis waar de James Webb mee te maken had. Alpha Centauri A maakt deel uit van een stersysteem samen met twee andere sterren, Alpha Centauri B en Proxima Centauri. "Dat geeft veel extra licht in de buurt en in de planeetschijf rond zo"n ster zit ook veel rommel. Dat maakt het lastiger daartussen planeten te vinden."</p> <p>Het duurde dan ook twee jaar om de nieuwe planeet te detecteren en er was hulp van andere telescopen bij nodig. En de vondst is nog niet definitief: S1 is alleen nog een kandidaat-exoplaneet. "Voordat we echt zeker zijn dat het echt om een planeet gaat, moet de ontdekking bevestigd worden, liefst door een andere telescoop."</p> Bestaat toch niet <p>Eerder werden al twee exoplaneten en een kandidaat-planeet gevonden bij de zwakke ster Proxima Centauri. Dat gebeurde met andere technieken. In 2012 was er ook sprake van een mogelijke planeet bij Alpha Centauri B, maar uit later onderzoek bleek die toch niet te bestaan.</p> <p>Als de nu waargenomen witte stip inderdaad een planeet is, dan staat die een stuk dichter bij zijn ster dan alle andere exoplaneten die met direct imaging zijn vastgelegd, zelfs in de "leefbare zone". S1 draait ook nog eens rond een ster die lijkt op onze zon qua leeftijd en temperatuur.</p> <p>Toch is zo"n gasreus volgens de onderzoekers geen plek waar leven kan voorkomen. Maar dat er een of meerdere manen omheen draaien, zoals in Avatar, is volgens Ellerbroek niet onmogelijk. "Alleen is zo"n exomaan nog veel moeilijker te vinden."</p> Astronomen vinden mogelijk 'Avatar-planeet' bij ster Alpha Centauri A	查看 3264	荷兰国家广播电视台	2025-08-08 20:10:27 2025-08-09 01:30:45	word

3237902	无图 <p>De veiling van tegels uit de zeehondenbaden van Pieterburen heeft een bedrag van ruim 10.000 euro opgeleverd. De belangstelling voor de oude tegeltjes kwam vooral van Japanners, zegt het centrum. In dat land wordt de livestream van zwemmende zeehonden enorm goed bekeken.</p> <p>De hype ontstond in augustus vorig jaar, toen een Japanse gebruiker op X de livestream van Zeehondencentrum Pieterburen deelde. Al snel keken miljoenen mensen naar de dieren en stroomden de donaties binnen. Een jaar later kijken er dagelijks nog steeds duizenden mensen naar de zeehonden.</p> <p>Ter ere van die "Japanniversary", zoals het zeehondencentrum het jaar populariteit in het Aziatische land noemt, werd een veiling georganiseerd. Daarin werden de tegeltjes uit de baden van de voormalige opvang verkocht.</p> Krassen van zeehondennagels <p>Vooral de tegels met zichtbare krassen van zeehondennagels waren in trek. "Juist die sporen maakten de tegels tot emotioneel waardevolle objecten voor de fans die een tastbare herinnering willen aan hun favoriete zeehonden", zegt Hester de Vries van Zeehondencentrum Pieterburen. Er werd behalve vanuit Japan ook geboden vanuit onder meer Nederland, Duitsland, de Verenigde Staten en Taiwan.</p> <p>De tegel die het meeste geld heeft opgebracht, kwam uit het binnenbad van het oude centrum. Dat was het bassin waar pups voor het eerst mochten zwemmen als ze aankwamen bij de opvang. Iemand uit Japan betaalde er 505 euro voor. Ook tegels uit het Golfbad, het bad dat te zien is op de livestream, ontvingen volgens De Vries veel hoge biedingen.</p> <p>"We zijn overweldigd door de betrokkenheid en ontzettend dankbaar voor alle steun", zegt De Vries. Van tevoren ging de organisatie ervan uit dat de tegels voor zo"n 50 tot 70 euro per stuk zouden weggaan. Uiteindelijk werden ze geveild voor gemiddeld ruim 200 euro per tegel, schrijft RTV Noord. "Het is mooi om te zien dat mensen zoveel waarde hechten aan een tastbare herinnering aan de tijd in Pieterburen."</p> Tweede veiling <p>De opbrengst van 10.101 euro wordt gebruikt voor de verzorging van de zeehonden, nu gevestigd in het Werelderfgoedcentrum (WEC) in Lauwersoog. Sinds mei worden de zeehonden daar opgevangen, omdat de opvang in Pieterburen aan vernieuwing toe was. Ook van de opvang in Lauwersoog is een livestream te bekijken.</p> <p>Binnenkort volgt nog een veilingronde. Dan komen andere objecten uit het oude opvangcentrum aan bod, zoals de originele vlaggen, borden en plattegronden.</p> Ruim 10.000 euro voor oude tegels Pieterburen ter ere van 'Japanniversary'	查看 2553	荷兰国家广播电视台	2025-08-08 20:34:05 2025-08-09 01:30:45	word
3237901	无图 <p>In Safaripark Beekse Bergen in Hilvarenbeek is een okapi geboren. Moeder en baby verblijven nog in de stallen, maar zijn voor bezoekers wel te zien via videoschermen. Het dier wordt in het wild met uitsterven bedreigd.</p> <p>De pasgeboren okapi, een vrouwtje, is afgelopen maandag geboren en is het derde jong van de moeder. "Het is een groot jong, dus het was best een pittige bevalling voor de moeder", aldus Lars Versteege van het park. "Bij een jong blijven de eerste weken altijd spannend, maar we hebben er alle vertrouwen in dat het goedkomt."</p> <p>De okapi wordt ook wel de bosgiraf genoemd omdat hij familie is van de giraf. De okapi is wel een stuk kleiner: een volwassen dier kan ongeveer 2,5 meter hoog worden en tot 350 kilo wegen.</p> Democratische Republiek Congo <p>De diersoort komt voor in de regenwouden van de Democratische Republiek Congo, maar door het kappen van het regenwoud wordt het leefgebied van de okapi kleiner. Ook jaagt de lokale bevolking op het dier voor het vlees en de huid, schrijft het park.</p> <p>De geboorte is het gevolg van een Europees programma waarbij diersoorten bij elkaar worden gezet om ze te laten voortplanten. Zo hopen dierentuinen een reservepopulatie te creëren en de diersoorten te beschermen en behouden.</p> <p>Een video van de pasgeboren okapi:</p> Met uitsterven bedreigde okapi geboren in Safaripark Beekse Bergen	查看 1356	荷兰国家广播电视台	2025-08-08 21:38:57 2025-08-09 01:30:45	word
3237900	无图 <p>De VVD heeft zijn kandidatenlijst bekendgemaakt voor de Tweede Kamerverkiezingen van 29 oktober. Dilan Yesilgöz voert zoals verwacht de lijst aan. Ze wordt gevolgd door Eelco Heinen, nu demissionair minister van Financiën.</p> <p>Economie is voor de VVD bij deze verkiezingen een belangrijk thema en dat verklaart de tweede plek van Heinen, aldus een woordvoerder van de VVD.</p> <p>Tweede Kamerlid Bente Becker staat op nummer drie, Ruben Brekelmans (nu demissionair minister van Defensie) staat op nummer vier en demissionair minister van Economische Zaken Vincent Karremans op vijf. Eric van der Burg, staatssecretaris in het vorige kabinet en nu Kamerlid, volgt op nummer zes.</p> <p>Vanwege het maximumaantal termijnen dat de VVD hanteert, keert oud-staatssecretaris en Kamerlid Aukje de Vries niet terug op de kieslijst. Oud-minister en Kamerlid Christianne van der Wal liet eerder al weten niet terug te keren als Kamerlid.</p> "Nieuwe generatie" <p>De VVD zet naar eigen zeggen onder Yesilgöz een "nieuwe generatie VVD"ers" neer. Jonge mensen, maar met ervaring en de overtuiging dat "de beste tijd van Nederland nog voor ons ligt". Van de eerste 20 kandidaten zitten er nu 18 in de Kamer of het demissionaire kabinet. Renate den Hollander, op nummer 18, is wethouder in Drenthe en oud-JOVD-voorzitter Hilde Wendel staat op nummer 20.</p> <p>De definitieve lijst wordt vastgesteld op 6 september, tot die tijd kunnen de VVD-leden nog stemmen.</p> Yesilgöz blijft leider <p>Yesilgöz werd in juni al voorgedragen door het bestuur. Ze was ook al lijsttrekker bij de vorige verkiezingen in 2023. Toen verloor de VVD 10 zetels en ging van 34 naar 24.</p> <p>De 48-jarige Yesilgöz volgde in augustus 2023 Mark Rutte op als partijleider. Ze was toen minister van Justitie. Daarvoor was ze ook enige tijd staatssecretaris van Economische Zaken.</p> Veiligheid en economie <p>Op het partijcongres in juni zei Yesilgöz in een speech dat veiligheid en economie de speerpunten voor haar partij worden bij de verkiezingen en sprak ze minder over asiel, het thema waarop de afgelopen twee kabinetten met de VVD vielen. Wat haar betreft wordt het volgende kabinet rechts-liberaal. De PVV sluit ze uit na het vertrek van Wilders uit het kabinet, zo zei ze al eerder.</p> <p>Het gaat nu volgens Yesilgöz vooral om het "eigen verhaal van de VVD". En dat gaat over veiligheid en het zeker stellen van onze manier van leven in een wereld die "instabieler is dan ooit".</p> <p>Ook sprak de VVD-leider op het congres over het dalende vertrouwen van mensen in de politiek en stak ze daarbij de hand in de boezem van haar eigen partij. "Het is noodzakelijk dat ook wij dat anders gaan doen." Ze sprak over toenemende polarisatie en wantrouwen die "koste wat kost voorkomen moeten worden". "Dus laten we vandaag afspreken: hier staat een vernieuwde VVD", zei ze toen.</p> Kritiek om bericht over Douwe Bob <p>Yesilgöz lag bij een deel van haar achterban onlangs onder vuur omdat ze volgens sommigen zelf ook zou hebben bijgedragen aan polarisatie toen ze op X reageerde op Douwe Bob. De zanger blies eind juni op het laatste moment een optreden af op een Joods voetbaltoernooi in Amsterdam. Hij besloot niet te spelen vanwege "een zionistische poster en pamfletten". In een reactie daarop zei Yesilgöz op X: "Zó gewoon is Jodenhaat geworden. Pure haat, in het volle zicht."</p> <p>Yesilgöz nam haar tweet niet terug en zei geen sorry, maar zei in een filmpje wel dat "het anders had gemoeten".</p> <p>Inmiddels heeft de zanger een kort geding aangespannen waarin hij eist dat het bericht van X verwijderd wordt. Yesilgöz heeft nog niet gereageerd op vragen van de NOS hierover.</p> VVD-kandidatenlijst bekend: Eelco Heinen na Yesilgöz op tweede plek	查看 3786	荷兰国家广播电视台	2025-08-08 22:20:31 2025-08-09 01:30:45	word
