package it unveiled for business hit by the coronavirus
epidemic, the finance ministry said.  urn:newsml:reuters.com:*:nZ8N29R00R
    Mainland China saw a drop in its daily tally of new

capital Beijing ramped up measures to contain the number of
infections arriving from abroad.  urn:newsml:reuters.com:*:nL4N2BG04G
    Asian shares sank on Monday as a rising tide of national
lockdowns threatened to overwhelm policymakers' frantic efforts
