Go to: www.WorldNetDaily.com for several takes on China-US relations such as 1/ the role of the Red ChiCom Army in business and military buildup with US technology (See: ABC News 3-part reports on ancillaries). More than one high-tech US companies are involved. Quote: "<< We don't take sides or favor a political position,>> says Mark Schweig, international strategy and development chief for Lucent Technologies, whose company became partners with a firm controlled by China's People's Liberation Army in 1993. Lucent deals with highly sophisticated telecommunications technology suitable both for civilian needs and military applications. "Our judgements are based upon business merit and business objectives. In China, we have all kinds of partners," says Schweig. (...) Lucent's deal with the PLA-controlled firm, Galaxy New Technology, helped spark the government inquiry. (...) Had the PLA attempted to purchase the same equipment for battlefield command and control operations -- something it is thought to want -- then Lucent would have needed clearance from the federal government beforehand. That could have easily stopped the sale entirely." 2/ ChiCom intelligence operations: AP News - 05/20/98 See next post.
