ztect, just to make sure that I understand: All of the direct foreign investment flowing into China has a purpose of benevolence towards the Chinese system. Fortune 500 companies that are expanding their businesses in China are engaging in "not for profit" activities or are being "duped" by the Chinese government. Wow! There should be quite a demand for your services over there. And this is conveniently confirmed by a post to you from someone I've never heard of, who has also been gratuitously enriching the Chinese for 10 years. Your contentious posts, which are long on vague insinuation and devoid of specifics do not qualify as "dd" in my book. I judge your motives to be other than those of enlightenment.

ztect: As a longtime (relatively) lurker on this thread, I have shared many of your concerns regarding GTCI. Every poster on this thread, every investor in GTCI for that matter, has to evaluate the veracity of every announcement and news release in their mind. Some investors obviously spend hours following leads, contacting management, testing products. I may not accept all of their research conclusions verbatim but I do consider their postings and appreciate their efforts. "Now I have friends and know people who trade with China....The purported "news" about major financial deals and money coming out of China to me are JUST PLAIN FICTION...The US trade deficit with China is HUGE and growing......." A meaningless post, a waste of all investor's time. I've travelled through China, I've hitchhiked into "forbidden" areas, I have friends and know people who trade in China. (True but irrelevant, unless I have some documentable information of significance to share.) I think all "news" coming out of China is UNDENIABLE FACT. The US trade deficit is HUGE, giving the Chinese immense quantities of dollars to spend on the internet, and a desperate need to solve the Y2K problem and protect their financial advantage. The preceding paragraph is meaningless, mirroring your recent posts (minus the venom). If you have factual information, positive or negative, please share it. Otherwise, please stick to your word (post 434 I believe). My apologies for wasting everyone's time. My heartfelt thanks to YY, RB, Blessed and the others who have shared many, many hours of work with us.

>If you haven't noticed China is STILL a Communist country, >that is run by old man, that hasn't gone through a system >of liberalization yet....Tibet, Tianmen (sp?)Square and >forced labor camps should quickly remind you of these FACTS.... 1) I found out repeatedly that, with a few exception of those who actually went and stayed in China, most people's knowledge of China is limited to what they saw from TV. Right now China is IN FACT not a communist country. The ruling party still call itself communist party. But if you look at what the government is doing (in terms promoting and gradually transform to free market economic -- although it is forced to do this for its own survival) and more importantly, look at what the entire society is doing, you will know that communism is DEAD in China. 2) China is still not a democratic society yet (It is moving toward that direction). It does has labor camps. It's political situation is similar to that of South Korea and Taiwan on and before 1970's. Although they were both capitalist countries, there were not really democratic. They had labor camps. The current Korea president was put in jail as a democratic leader at that time. Taiwan had incident (2.28 incident) similar to what happened in Tiananmen square. The point is, non-democratic and communist are not equivalent. 3) China is not run by old man. The majority of the people who are actually running the country are "Lao San Jie" (old three classes) and "77 Jie" (class 77, which I am proudly to be one, although I decided not to go into politics). Sorry I don't have time to explain who these people are since it's impossible to explain the recent history (back to Culture Revolution) here. >Now I have friends and know people who trade with China....The >purported "news" about major financial deals and money coming >out of China to me are JUST PLAIN FICTION... That only means the "people" your "friends" know didn't get any "major financial deal". Do you know why even in 1989, after June 4th, Bush vetoed congress's bill and maintained China's MFN status ? And do you know why so many US companies lobby hard every year to help China to keep MFN ? Because they made "major financial deals" and are making a lot money out of China ! >The US trade deficit with China is HUGE and growing....... US trade deficit with China exists. US and Chinese government always argue whether it is "HUGE". The key is how you calculate the deficit. Most of the product exported to US are actually produced in China by US owned companies or JVs. yongzhi
