TJ,
I doubt there was much foreign property in China for Mao to expropriate. There were a bunch of textile mills built on the Chinese coast back in the 1920's and even before, but then the Japanese came and occupied most of this region in the 1930's. After 1945 I don't think much was done there in the way of foreign investment because of all the problems.

Iran was a different story. There you had all that oil infrastructure built by the Brits and the "Seven Sisters".

And I am curious as to what will happen to similar issues next door in Iraq. It seems that a peculiar silence about the disposition of these assets exists.
