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
powers:

Important enemy article:
HTML https://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2020/12/12/the-vietnam-war-and-china-was-walt-rostow-right-with-an-endnote-on-the-linkage-to-us-israel-relations/
[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.
