| White House: Pres. Donald Trump to sign bill that could delist | |
| Chinese companies from U.S. exchanges | |
| [quote]The U.S. House of Representatives passed a law to kick | |
| Chinese companies off U.S. stock exchanges if they do not fully | |
| comply with the country�s auditing rules, giving President | |
| Donald Trump one more tool to threaten Beijing with before | |
| leaving office. | |
| The measure passed the House by unanimous voice vote, after | |
| passing the Senate unanimously in May, sending it to Trump, who | |
| the White House said is expected to sign it into law. | |
| �The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act� bars securities | |
| of foreign companies from being listed on any U.S. exchange if | |
| they have failed to comply with the U.S. Public Accounting | |
| Oversight Board�s audits for three years in a row. | |
| While is applies to companies from any country, the | |
| legislation�s sponsors intended it to target Chinese companies | |
| listed in the United States, such as Alibaba, tech firm | |
| Pinduoduo and oil giant PetroChina. | |
| Measures taking a harder line on Chinese business and trade | |
| practices generally pass Congress with large margins. Both | |
| Democrats and Trump�s fellow Republicans echo the president�s | |
| hard line against Beijing, which became fiercer this year as | |
| Trump blamed China for the coronavirus ravaging the United | |
| States. | |
| Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen, who co-authored the bill | |
| with Republican Senator John Kennedy, said in a statement that | |
| American investors �have been cheated out of their money after | |
| investing in seemingly-legitimate Chinese companies that are not | |
| held to the same standards as other publicly listed companies.� | |
| Kennedy said China was using U.S. exchanges to �exploit� | |
| Americans. �The House joined the Senate in rejecting a toxic | |
| status quo,� he said in a statement. | |
| The act would also require public companies to disclose whether | |
| they are owned or controlled by a foreign government. | |
| The American Securities Association praised passage of the bill | |
| saying it was necessary to protect Americans from �fradulent | |
| companies controlled by the Chinese Communist Party.� | |
| �Non-discriminatory environment� | |
| The Chinese embassy in Washington did not immediately respond to | |
| a request for comment. Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua | |
| Chunying said before the vote that it was a discriminatory | |
| policy that politically oppresses Chinese firms. | |
| �Instead of setting up layers of barriers, we hope the U.S. can | |
| provide a fair and non-discriminatory environment for foreign | |
| firms to invest and operate in the U.S.,� Hua told a news | |
| conference. | |
| A spokesman for Alibaba pointed to a comment on the bill from | |
| May, when it was passed by the Senate. Chief Financial Officer | |
| Maggie Wu told investors the firm would �endeavor to comply with | |
| any legislation whose aim is to protect and bring transparency | |
| to investors who buy securities on U.S. stock exchanges.� | |
| Chinese authorities have long been reluctant to let overseas | |
| regulators inspect local accounting firms, citing national | |
| security concerns. | |
| Officials at China�s securities regulator indicated earlier this | |
| year they were willing to allow inspections of audit documents | |
| in some circumstances, but past agreements aimed at solving the | |
| dispute have failed to work in practice. | |
| Shaun Wu, a Hong Kong-based partner at law firm Paul Hastings, | |
| said increased enforcement against Chinese companies was likely | |
| even though Democrat Joe Biden will become president in | |
| January.[/quote] | |

| The correct approach, of course, is for the US to take this | |
| opportunity to openly side with China against Australia. If the | |
| US were willing to do this, I guarantee it could win over China | |
| to a new vision of cooperation. | |
| But will Biden do this? Of course not. Biden is still stuck in | |
| the False Left mentality that the US is less close to China, a | |
| fellow former victim of colonization by two of the same colonial | |

| Important enemy article: | |
| https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2020/12/12/the-vietnam-war-and-china-was-… | |
| [quote]Rostow was among a group of middle-aged intellectuals and | |
| academics, most also World War II veterans and, as in Rostow�s | |
| case, who had also served in the OSS (Office of Strategic | |
| Services, the predecessor to the CIA). From that experience, | |
| and the ideology it reinforced, the advisors surrounding | |
| America�s post-war presidents were Hawks; even what today would | |
| be called �Neo-cons� and far-right advocates for U.S military | |
| intervention (or pre-emption). But as the Vietnam war dragged | |
| on, their reputations were dragged through the mud. In Rostow�s | |
| case�one of the last holdouts for U.S. victory�he constantly | |
| pushed LBJ (president Johnson) to commit more troops, more | |
| planes, more bombs, and more money. | |
| ... | |
| Rostow believed early on that communist China, if it continued | |
| to advance through the �stages of growth� into a high-tech, | |
| modern mass society, would be a profound regional, and if | |
| consolidated, a global competitive threat to nearly everything | |
| America stood for. | |
| ... | |
| Was Rostow right? I believe he was, and more: he was not only | |
| right about the threat communism posed to Western freedoms and | |
| liberty, but about the dislocations and distortions in | |
| scientific and technological development: China�s culture is | |
| imitative and assimilative; it is the like the �Borg.� | |
| Resistance is futile. | |
| ... | |
| The CCP is the new cult-hero of the radical Left globalist, who | |
| views the U.S. as a dying establishment society of privilege. | |
| Except the Left doesn�t actually despise privilege; it despises | |
| being denied privilege for itself�and now, it wants it all for | |
| itself, with an objective of a unitarian, consolidated American | |
| political monism that destroys its opposition and consolidates | |
| its hegemony over all aspects of society in ways completely | |
| foreign to American traditions of individual freedom � economic | |
| and religious liberty, with a government subordinated to the | |
| civil public, and the civil public in control of its military, | |
| its property, currency, and most of its natural resources. | |
| ... | |
| China � and emulation of China � threaten to dismantle most if | |
| not all American routines and traditions, and in an insidious | |
| way that slowly but consistently encroaches on every aspect of | |
| American culture and custom. | |
| ... | |
| Rostow�s Cold War hawkish stance of defiance was right: It is | |
| modern, strong, sober and confident, in the face of another U.S. | |
| political world view that is anarchic, compliant, hysterical and | |
| weak.[/quote] | |
| Got all that standard Yellow Peril boilerplate? Now wait for it: | |
| [quote]Rostow�s family were Jewish immigrants from | |
| Russia[/quote] | |
| Who didn't see that coming? | |

| Thumbs up for the Chinese government to have stalled the IPO at | |
| the very last minute to avoid the launch of Ma's new enterprise | |
| to supply credit (without need of collateral) to facilitate | |
| young people's spending. If not for their resolute action, | |
| China might be walking the footstep of the US in the late 60s | |
| and heading for the direction of an over inflated bubble economy | |
| thus jeopardizing the Renminbi and saving the US dollar from its | |
| overdue downfall. | |
| There is also say that Jack Ma is possibly a new recruit to | |
| Freemasonry and connected with the forces behind US Federal | |
| Reserve who are aiming at sucking the Chinese market which is so | |
| rapidly expanding. Conspiracy theory or not, the stark | |
| resemblance of the 'eye' in the logos of Ma's new Weixin | |
| company, Freemason, and the Federal Reserve is certainly an | |
| interesting point to note. | |
