"Liu Zhongtian, the former chairman of China Zhongwang Holdings, is accused of exporting huge amounts of aluminum disguised as pallets to avoid paying customs duties of up to 400 percent." france24.com/en/20190731-ch…
and he has a Maltese passport. daphnecaruanagalizia.com/2016/05/chines…
Busy boy: Dupre said Liu and his family were committing "the largest and most complex China fraud ever uncovered" and have "systematically defrauded investors, [fabricated] at least 62.5 per cent of revenue since 2011 and likely skimming billions" scmp.com/business/china…
"Zhongtian has set up a secretly owned re-melting facility in Mexico which has allegedly imported HK$16.3 billion of aluminium products made by Zhongwang since 2011, and turned them into aluminium billets.
“It’s like taking a new car, melting it down, and selling it as steel"

Kudos to Open Russia and @khodorkovskycenter for incredible forensic reporting on the murder of three Russian journalists in the Central Africa Republic in an event linked to Russian mercenaries, "Wagner/M-Invest" and Yevgeny Prigozhin. Please share widely dossier.center/car-en/
"Numerous confirmations of Yevgeny Prigozhin’s personal involvement in the activities of the «Company» can be found in its internal correspondence...«The Chief (Chef) has always issued instructions personally rather than through coordinators"
"Participants of the meeting discussed the situation in Libya and the Middle East, where Prigozhin has both potential interests and ongoing projects (Libya, Syria, Egypt)" bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Why is a rich Libertarian working for the Chicoms looking to bum money from the U.S. government for "shithole" projects using an oped in the Asia Times? And who uses the rail system as an example of American success? Behold: Erik Prince without a PR agent:asiatimes.com/2019/07/opinio…
People, all Erik wants is $40 million so he can fuck up shit in Venezuela. I mean Tropic Thunder probably cost twice that and Prince's debacles always deliver good entertainment value. thinkprogress.org/regime-overthr…
Exclusive footage of The Towheaded one explaining his Venezuela plan to Simple Jared. "I'm guessing right about now you couldn't find a Dixie coonskin with an Ohio hooker holding your prick and showing you the way"

Kuangchi Science (Johnson Ko + Dorian Barak), Frontier Services Group (Johnson Ko + Erik Prince), ReOrient/Yunfeng (Johnson Ko + Dorian Barak) and Emerdata (Johnson Ko + Mercers ) are companies of interest because they link through Erik Prince, Johnson Ko and Dorian Barak. Wait..
Dorian Barak has been fronting for Erik Prince to hide his money and corporate involvement after the Reflex Response meltdown. Prince was under a Deferred Prosecution Agreement and was barred from providing military or security services. But Prince did. gibsondunn.com/wp-content/upl…
Executives that fronted R2 Joe Fluet, Dean Valentine Lebanese middleman that Prince worked with at R2 like Jamal Ballazi (Balassi) and later on Reno Alberto, realized R2 was a disaster. R2 was a reach around for Prince who wanted to sell IOMAX planes to the UAE but was blocked.

C’est parti! 3 day Roundtable on the Future of Rules of Origin and Utilization Rates started in Florence. Organised by @EuropeanUni @UNCTAD @GlobGovProgram @BernardHoekman
Great opportunity for reps from IOs, governments, private sector and academia to discuss #rulesoforigin
Key topics raised so far: best practices on RoOs, the need for increased cross-sector cooperation and the extreme disconnect between pockets of knowledge on RoOs.
Utilisation rates will be one of the key issues here – how do we determine whether FTAs currently in place lead to economic benefits if we do not know what the utilisation rates are and are only estimating them

For 30 years, Jiang Lin– a former lieutenant in #China’s army– kept silent on the horrors she saw during the #TiananmenSquareMassacre. Today, she speaks up to tell her story as an insider: nyti.ms/2JOyEMG #June4
“The pain has eaten at me for 30 years,” she said in an interview in Beijing. “Everyone who took part must speak up about what they know happened. That’s our duty to the dead, the survivors and the children of the future.” #China #June4 nyti.ms/2JOyEMG
Jiang said she felt compelled to call for a public reckoning because generations of Chinese Communist Party leaders, including President Xi Jinping, have expressed no remorse for the violence. Ms. Jiang left #China this week. #June4 nyti.ms/2JOyEMG

.@Caijing, a major financial publication in #China, just published an in-depth piece on the #BitmainIPO fiasco: massive Q2 losses, pre-IPO investors jumping ship / denying involvement, tech team behind S7/S9 left and now no new advancements, AND patents are rendered invalid.🍿📉
I'll sum up key points in the article: Bitmain only survived the bear market of 2015-2016 because of Yang Zuo Xing's chip designs in the S7/S9. He is also the reason they were able to capture a large market share. (Yang is no longer with Bitmain. Started competitor ShenMa.)
After Yang Zuo Xing left, Bitmain was unable to produce any new chips successfully. Bitmain's 16nm BM1X89, 12nm BM1X90, 10nm BM1X93, all failed. Bitmain is working 7nm chips now but gains are minimal.
