Dr Li-Meng Yan is a scientist with military university training background whose opinions must be taken seriously.

 According to Keystone Symposia & Digitell, Inc and CONGRESSMAN MO BROOKS REPORTS ON INTERVIEW WITH DR. LI-MENG YAN REGARDING COVID-19 & COMMUNIST CHINA'S BIO-WEAPONS PROGRAMDr. Li-Meng Yan received her PhD from Southern Medical University,formerly known as the First Military Medical University of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, and defected to the United States of America from the People's Republic of China. So Dr Li-Meng Yan is a scientist with military university training background who defected to the USA and her opinions must be taken seriously. 

 According to The Constitution of Southern Medical University, Southern Medical University was formerly known as the First Military Medical University of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. In August 2004, in accordance with the orders of the State Council of the People's Republic of China and the Central Military Commission, it was handed over to the Guangdong Provincial People's Government as a whole and changed its name to Southern Medical University. 

Article 56 Alumni Association of Southern Medical University is a non-profit social organization voluntarily formed by alumni registered and established by the school in accordance with the law. Alumni refer to those in Southern Medical University (including the former First Military Medical University, the former Guangzhou Military Region Medical College) ,faculty and students who have worked, studied, and advanced in colleges and universities and their predecessors, as well as part-time professors, visiting professors, honorary professors, and honorary doctors hired by the school. 

Article 65 of the Constitution of Southern Medical University:...the school emblem...an olive branch is surrounded by an olive branch on both sides of the shield, implying that the school once belonged to the army;...



The constitution of the Alumni Association of Southern Medical University written in Chinese: 

Article 7 Anyone who has one of the following conditions could be a member of this association.

 (1) Graduates of Southern Medical University (including the former First Military Medical University, the former Guangzhou Medical College and its predecessor), including various advanced students, day students, correspondence students, evening students, Dai Peisheng, etc.

 (2) Transferred cadres from the former First Military Medical University and Guangzhou Medical College.

According to the constitution of  the Alumni Association of Southern Medical University-NA written in Chinese, anyone in North America... once in Southern Medical University (.. .Predecessor colleges, such as the Chinese People's Liberation Army Military Medical College, the Chinese People's Liberation Army First Military Medical University)... can join the association. 

Those who participated in the 70th Celebration of Southern Medical University included Shuang-Ning Su  (Chief Designer of China's Manned Space Engineering Astronaut System) and Jia-Ke Chai  (First Class Meritorious Service of the Central Military Commission). Shenghe Huang , president of the  Alumni Association of Southern Medical University-NA, is an honorary professor at the University of Southern California, etc.




 The subsidy document provided by Guangzhou Science and Technology Bureau regarding grant made to Southern Medical University in 2020 shows that the official name of Southern Medical University is "Southern Medical University (formerly First Military Medical University)", which means that the account name allocated by the financial department is also "Southern Medical University (formerly First Military Medical University)". 




The CCP of Xi Jinping, who goes against the United States, is a traitor of China

 To challenge American interests is to challenge the interests of workers, consumers and investors around the world. Investors from all over the world can open accounts in the United States to freely invest in U.S. stocks and U.S. bonds. Companies from all over the world can freely issue stocks and other securities in the United States. The United States purchases products from all over the world and shares its own technology and knowledge with all countries in the world. The Chinese Communist Party(CCP) prevents Chinese people from investing freely in U.S. stocks, and the CCP hinders the free listing of Chinese companies in the United States by blocking US PCAOB's access to auditors' working papers. It is only natural to overthrow the CCP.

The cash flow of goods sold allows Chinese companies to pay wages to Chinese workers. The U.S. trade deficit with China clearly illustrates that the U.S. provides Chinese companies with net sales cash inflows, while China simply adds to the overall U.S. cash outflow and trade deficit. The investment of American companies in China (deficit under the capital account for the USA) and the creation of employment also show that China's employment depends on the United States. The CCP of Xi Jinping, who goes against the United States, is a traitor of China.

If capital asset pricing model is used to price the shares of China the entire A-share and H-share, Rf = the maturity yield of the farthest maturity US Treasury bond, ERm is the expected return rate of the global market, Xi Jinping aids Russia, and forms an alliance with Putin, resulting in risk factor β souring.The discount rate ERi used for pricing continues to rise, and the embedded value = 

Σ the cash flow in the t-th year in the future / (( 1+ERi)^t), keeps falling.

The CCP is fooling the leek to take over again, "Hong Kong stock market has the lowest price net assets ratio, A-shares are the third cheapest, and the financial stock PE ratio is only half of the US stock market." Price-to-book ratio = market value / net assets, price-earnings ratio = market value / net profit attributable to the parent company, net assets and net profit are calculated by accounting, and the financial fraud of A-share and H-share listed companies is serious, especially after Hong Kong lost self-governance status. The more false the net assets and net profit are, the lower the price-to-book ratio and price-earnings ratio are.

Regarding cash flow based pricing model, cash flow could be manipulated through related party transactions as Chinese state-owned companies intentionally omitted related party transactions with Chinese governments and other state-owned entities. Such as Here. Here

In view of the losses caused by Huanghai brand tires to the Russian army, Xi Jinping, chairman of the Central Military Commission of the CCP, signed an order to issue the "Interim Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Military Equipment Procurement Contracts", which will take effect on March 20. This is just cramming, thinking that the procurement internal control system can be built and operated effectively in the short term, but internal control also needs the support of corporate culture. A good corporate culture should not let Xi Jinping be the chairman of the Military Commission. The CCP system is doomed to defeat the CCP.

Inside Putin’s circle — the real Russian elite

 Many Russian elites want to reestablish Russia as an Eurasian empire by evading Ukraine. They regard the west countries as enemies.

The Chinese Communist Party(CCP) has started the first batch of secret distribution of Russian military uniforms in special forces to fight in Ukraine.

 This special operation includes coordinating the provision of the Chinese version of UAVs, the development of new weapons test sites by the Chinese Communist Party, satellite navigation, and communication systems (Huawei has already participated in the war) and other logistical support series.

 The CCP’s cyber forces, intelligence warfare forces, and public opinion warfare forces have already participated in the war.

Modern warfare is all about equipment. One of the sources of Russia’s fight against Ukraine and Putin is that a large number of new weapons in the CCP’s military industry need to be tested on the battlefield. In addition to virus weapons, it also includes EMP and brain-controlled weapons (the US official has confirmed that the CCP is developing), weather Weapons (the weather in Ukraine can change suddenly) and more extremely evil weapons. These are the top-level intelligence programs of the CCP that have been collected.

Announcement on the progress of the Xiamen gathering case (February 2022) concerning suppression of human rights

original author: Ding Jiaxi's wife Luo Shengchun

Dear Sir/Madam:
Thank you for your attention to the 1226 Xiamen Gathering Case! Following the progress report on January 31, 2022, the following is the progress of the case during February 2022.
On February 21, lawyer Peng Jian met with Ding Jiaxi by video, but was interrupted halfway through the meeting, saying that the equipment was occupied and ended in a hurry. It was known that Jiaxi is calm and optimistic. The living conditions in the detention center still do not follow the regulations and have not improved. Jiaxi said that the director of the detention center recently went to see him and recorded his questions about the detention center's diet, ventilation, hygiene and other aspects, but he did not promise to improve it. During this meeting, Jiaxi continued to emphasize the requirement for witnesses to appear in court.

On February 17, lawyer Fang Xiangui, the second defense lawyer re-entrusted by Xu Zhiyong's family, met with Xu Zhiyong via video , and learned that Zhiyong was in a good state of mind, adhered to his beliefs, and remained optimistic. The court also does not allow lawyer Fang to copy the dossier. For this reason, lawyer Fang requests the court to clarify: 1) those dossiers that are classified; 2) the agency or department that has determined that they are classified; 3) what is the legal basis for the definition of classifieds? At present,  no court response has yet been received by lawyer Fang.

Due to the epidemic prevention and control and personal reasons of the lawyer, Chang Weiping's lawyer was unable to meet Chang Weiping in February, and he did not answer the phone inquiries about the progress of the case. Therefore, like last month, Chang Weiping's defense lawyer and family had no news of Chang Weiping.

On February 17, lawyer Li Guobei met with Li Qiaochu via video, and learned that Qiaochu's condition was still very serious. The doctor added drugs for the treatment of auditory hallucinations. Although the auditory hallucinations were relieved slightly, the side effects of the drugs were very serious, leading to amenorrhea and puffiness. Li Qiaochu's family was very anxious, and re-applied for bail pending trial based on Qiaochu's condition. The Linyi City Procuratorate verbally informed that the application had been rejected, and informed that Li Qiaochu had been prosecuted to the court on February 28.

On February 1, the British Guardian published an article exposing that the authorities violated their own constitution and self-proclaimed democracy, arbitrarily used charges of endangering national security, feared to create the Xiamen party case, violated the basic human rights of citizens, and suppressed the peaceful and rational democratic demands of the people. 

On February 3, the U.S. Congressional China Committee held a hearing on the theme of "Beijing Olympic Games and Human Rights Suppression". On behalf of the families of the Xiamen Party case, I told members of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives that the authorities played with the law and created the Xiamen Party case for no reason. Law-abiding citizens committed arbitrary disappearances, tortured confessions, ill-treatment, deprivation of basic human rights, and at the same time violated the right of defense lawyers to practice shamelessly.

From February 7th to 10th, the International Service for Human Rights held four teleconferences with the British Human Rights Ambassador, the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Disappearances, and the UN permanent diplomats in Geneva to update the progress of the case and call for international attention.

On February 15, the US embassy in China issued a statement on the second anniversary of Xu Zhiyong's innocent detention to call on the Chinese government to fulfill its commitments when it signed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, stop suppressing human rights and human rights lawyers. The German and French embassies in China also expressed public concern and support for Chinese lawyers and human rights defenders through their official Weibo accounts, and called for the immediate release of all peaceful and rational human rights defenders.

On February 22, the human rights organization CHRD organized a discussion forum on Twitter to discuss the Olympics and human rights. The Xiamen Gathering Case, as a typical case of Chinese human rights defenders being severely violated , attracted attention.

Through this letter, I thank you for your attention, appeal and support to the 1226 Xiamen Gathering Case so far, and I hope you will continue to pay attention.

The four victims of the 1226 Xiamen Gathering case continue to demand that the Chinese government stop persecuting peaceful human rights activists and stop the CCP authorities from continuing to brazenly violate international law and international human rights conventions.



Best regards!

The announcement firstly appeared on the following website in Chinese: https://www.msguancha.com/a/lanmu50/2022/0306/21723.html

Commonwealth Bank of Australia is helping China to finance Russian aggression

 It's unversally acknowledged that Chinese Communist Party, the supreme power in China, is colluding with Russia on invading Ukraine.  There are many cooperation projects and contracts operated or signed by China with Russia

But many foreign banks are reluctant to completely divest investments in China, such as Commonwealth Bank of Australia.

As reported by Sohu, according to the 2021 semi-annual report, as of the end of June 2021, there were 3 shareholders of Bank of Hangzhou holding more than 10% of the shares, namely Commonwealth Bank of Australia holding 15.57%, Hangzhou Finance Bureau holding 11.86%, Red Lion Holding Group Co., Ltd. holding 11.81% of the shares.  

Commonwealth Bank of Australia was established on 17 April 1991 and is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. In addition to Hangzhou Bank, the Commonwealth Bank of Australia also has a stake in Qilu Bank in China, holding a 16.09% stake.

A share transfer agreement was signed on 28 February 2022. Commonwealth Bank of Australia transferred 5% of the shares it held in Bank of Hangzhou to Hangzhou Urban Investment and Hangzhou Trading respectively, and transferred a total of 10% of the shares. The transfer price per share is 13.94 yuan per share, and the total share transfer price is 8.275 billion yuan. This share transfer is still subject to the approval of the Zhejiang Regulatory Bureau of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission and the compliance confirmation of the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

After the divestment by Commonwealth Bank of Australia, the largest shareholder of Hangzhou Bank will be changed to Hangzhou Finance Bureau.

Founded in September 1996, Bank of Hangzhou is headquartered in Hangzhou. The bank has more than 200 branches and outlets covering the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta, Bohai Rim and other regions.

Warning!!! The numbers mentioned below are likely to be false considering under the overall environment of past practices of accounting fraud prevailing in China and blocking US PCAOB's access to auditing papers related to China operation of multinationals and Chinese companies listed in the United States of America.

As of the end of September 2021, the total assets of Bank of Hangzhou were 1.33 trillion yuan, an increase of 13.75% over the end of the previous year; in the first three quarters of 2021, Bank of Hangzhou achieved operating income of 22.377 billion yuan, an increase of 19.97% over the same period last year; net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies was 70.36 100 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 26.16%.

The 2021 semi-annual report shows that as of the end of June 2021, total loans were 539.984 billion yuan, an increase of 11.65% over the end of the previous year, and the total liabilities were 1,201.333 billion yuan, an increase of 10.38% over the end of the previous year; the total deposits were 744.195 billion yuan, an 6.61%. increase over the end of the previous year. 

As of the end of June 2021, the total amount of non-performing loans was 5.274 billion yuan, and the non-performing loan ratio was 0.98%, down 0.09 percentage points from the end of the previous year. The provision coverage ratio was 530.43%, an increase of 60.89 percentage points over the end of the previous year.



Chinese petrol prices soured following Russian aggression in Ukraine

 As reported by Sohu, an extra 10 RMB had to be paid  to fill up a tank of fuel, and experts say that the price will continue to rise. Domestic refined oil prices ushered in "four consecutive rises" during the year. On March 3, the National Development and Reform Commission issued a notice on price adjustment of refined oil products. From 24:00 on 3 March 2022, domestic petrol and diesel prices will increase by 260 RMB and 255 RMB(Chinese Yuan or yuan) per ton respectively.

The national average: 0.2 yuan per liter for No. 92 petrol; 0.22 yuan per liter for No. 95 petrol; 0.22 yuan per liter for No. 0 diesel. According to the estimated capacity of the 50L fuel tank of a general household car, filling a tank of No. 92 gasoline will cost an extra 10 yuan.

After the oil price increase this time, the price of No. 92 gasoline in many parts of the country has entered the "8 yuan era". This year, the domestic refined oil market has gone through four rounds of price adjustment windows. This adjustment is also the fourth time that refined oil prices have risen during the year. After the cumulative increase, petrol and diesel have been increased by 1,125 yuan/ton and 1,085 yuan/ton respectively.

Taking a private car with a capacity of 50 liters as an example, after the price adjustment is implemented, it will cost 10 yuan more to fill a tank of No. 92 petrol.

Following petrol price adjustments, cost of other properties will increase and demand of products due to reduced disposable personal income will reduce. As a result, business is to be squeezed giving rise to impairment risks of assets, such as receivables, inventories, PPEs, intangibles,etc., and reevaluation of share prices and credit ratings of bonds.

Usually tourism industry needs clients to travel on a car or plane consuming petrol

Breaking: Russian embassy in China stated that Xi Jinping honoured Putin's aggression against Ukraine

 




This is the translation of the content posted in Chinese by Russian Embassy in China on 25 February 2022:

On 25 February 2022 Vladimir Putin held a telephone conversation with Xi Jinping, the President of the People's Republic of China.

The Russian President informed the Chinese President in detail about the decision to recognize the Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republic and to carry out special military operations aimed at protecting civilians from genocide, as well as reasons of ensuring the demilitarization and denazification of the Ukrainian state.

Vladimir Putin also noted that he was ready to send a delegation to Minsk to negotiate with Ukrainian representatives, taking into account the signals just received from Kyiv.

Xi Jinping stressed that he respected the actions taken by the Russian leaders in the current crisis situation.

The two sides assessed the current international situation in general and reaffirmed their willingness to further closely coordinate and support each other in the United Nations and other multilateral platforms. They noted that the use of illegal sanctions to achieve the self-interested goals of individual countries must never be allowed. In light of this, the leaders of the two countries emphasized the importance of strengthening bilateral pragmatic cooperation, taking into account the results of their talks in Beijing on 4 February 2022.

Ukrainians fighting Russia are friends of China



#Russia is an old enemy of #China#
Ukrainians fighting  Russia are friends of China. 
Xi Jinping is a traitor of China. 
Remove Xi Jinping regime immediately.

Apple's extremely controversial 2021 annual report indicates Apple is acting as agent of Xi Jinping regime

 Apple knowingly failed to disclose segment information of Mainland China separately

When Apple disclosed segment information in its annual report, it disclosed Greater China or China segment' s information where Greater China or China include Mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong, inspite of knowing Taiwan being distinct from Mainland China and Hong Kong in terms of property of risks. 

On page 7 of annual report, it disclosed 

 tensions between the U.S. and China have led to a series of tariffs being imposed by the U.S. on imports from China mainland

Here China doesn't include Taiwan. There's no such tentions between Taiwan and US. 

Explanation of reasons of sales growth from China is misleading

On page 20, it claimed that Greater China net sales increased 70% during 2021 compared to 2020 due to higher net sales of iPhone, iPad and Services and the strength of the Chinese renminbi relative to the U.S. dollar. 



The statement, making financial statements users falsely think that Chinese renminbi was used in all the Greater China regions,is in conflict with the fact that Taiwan dollar, Hong Kong dollar and Chinese renminbi are used in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Mainland China respectively.

The statement, making financial statements users falsely think that the reliability of revenue number of Greater China is same among Mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong and is the same as that of Americas, Europe, Japan and rest of the world, is in conflict with the fact that referred work related to the China mainland-based operations of non-Chinese public companies whose principal, signing auditor is outside of China, has been unavailable to inspection carried out by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board of the United States of America because of obstruction of Xi Jinping regime.

Total net sales in 2021 rose by $91.3 billion while Greater China increased $28.06 billion, which is 30.73% of total net sales increase. Compensation relied on satisfying net sales target of  $310 billion. Net sales in 2021 exceeded the target by $55.8 billion. Net sales also influenced operating income target as net sales minus cost of sales minus operating expenses as indicated by Apple's CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS.


In consequence, the performance measurement of Mainland China of Apple is possibly biased and is likely to result in false promotion and compensation decisions.

Misleading statement regarding forced labour in China

It was stated in proxy statement that in 2020 Apple and its independent third-party auditors conducted 1,121 assessments of  suppliers around the world. ... to argue that it has performed sufficient work on preventing forced labour. But the statement didn't mention how many audits have been performed in China regarding concerns of stakeholders. Apple didn't even disclose what percentage Apple sourced materials or labour from Mainland China.

Referred audit work related to the China mainland-based operations of Apple, unavailabe to US PCAOB's inspection, also included understanding and testing of internal control in Mainland China, in addition to substantive procedures. Robust internal control is necessary to implement sound anti-forced labour policies. Apple's financial reporting practices of messing China with Taiwan make it difficult to report separately to what extent Apple relied on forced labour Made in China. It's very rare to see media reporting forced labour in Taiwan.

Misleading statement regarding censorship in China

Apple provided that it has adopted various policies to protect human rights. But the effect of every policy relied on internal control's effectiveness and efficiency as well as overall environment. Apple failed to answer specifically how effective the policy and internal control in China was and failed to emphasize its policy may not always be in effect.

Apple has been proactively helping Xi Jinping regime to censor Chinese by buiding Data center in Ulanqab, Inner Mongolia whose construction work was begun on 15 March 2019 and completed in 2020. The construction work was completed by China State Construction Engineering Corporation,a Chinese military PLA entity. PLA is directed by Xi Jinping.


Apple is acting as agent of Xi Jinping regime

Xi Jinping regime censored Chinese speech and made force labour to happen to benefit Apple(苹果)'s management in China. Xi Jinping regime banned  PCAOB's inspection of referred work to help Apple manipulate revenue numbers and cover up corruption possibly included in the audit papers. The words of proxy statement is more like propaganda and diplomatic words of Xi Jinping regime, unresponsive to concerns.

There is one subsidiary in China,Apple Computer Trading (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. which is subject to coercion. Xi Jinping regime has coerced many multinational companies with China business in the past for Xi Jinping's benefit, such as in the issues of Taiwan, Lithuania, Xinjiang genocide,etc.

Apple and its management should be required to be registered as foreign agent with US Department of Justice before Apple cuts off all the business relations with Mainland China. 





There are material misstatements regarding Ford's China business in the financial statements as of 31 Dec 2021

The following information is extracted from Ford's annual report



The Automotive segment primarily includes the sale of Ford and Lincoln vehicles, service parts, and accessories worldwide, together with the associated costs to develop, manufacture, distribute, and service the vehicles, parts, and accessories. This segment includes revenues and costs related to our electrification vehicle programs. The segment includes the following regional business units: North America, South America, Europe, China (including Taiwan), and the International Markets Group.
The U.S. administration has sought to address this issue with currency provisions that were included in the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement and United States-China trade deals.
China includes Taiwan; China market share includes Ford brand and JMC brand vehicles produced and sold by our unconsolidated affiliates.
For example, the China Stage VI light duty vehicle emission standards, based on European Stage VI emission standards for light duty vehicles, U.S. evaporative and refueling emissions standards, and CARB OBD II requirements, incorporate two levels of stringency for tailpipe emissions. Under the level one (VI(a)) standard, which is currently in place nationwide in China, the emissions limits are comparable to the EU Stage VI limits, except for CO, which is 30% lower than the EU Stage VI limit. The more stringent level two (VI(b)) standard’s emissions limits are approximately 30-50% lower than the EU Stage VI limits, depending on the pollutant. While level two (VI(b)) is not slated for nationwide implementation until July 2023, the government has encouraged the more economically developed cities and provinces to pull ahead implementation. For example, Shanghai, Tianjin, Hebei province, and Guangdong province have all begun implementing level two (VI(b)). Both China Stage VII light duty vehicle and heavy duty vehicle emission regulations are currently under evaluation, and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment has advised that the Stage VII regulations will have more stringent limits on pollutant emissions and will establish limits for greenhouse gas (primarily CO2) tailpipe emissions.



China’s Corporate Average Fuel Consumption and New Energy Vehicle (“NEV”) Credit Administrative Rules contain fuel consumption requirements as well as credit mandates for NEV passenger vehicles, i.e., plug-in hybrids, battery electric vehicles, or fuel cell vehicles. The fuel consumption requirement uses a weight-based approach to establish targets, with year-over-year target reductions. China set a target of 5.0L/100km for the 2020 passenger vehicle industry fuel consumption fleet average, which lowers to 4.0L/100km by 2025 based on the New European Driving Cycle (“NEDC”) system. The government is projecting a further fuel consumption reduction in 2030 and is targeting 3.2L/100km. The NEV mandate requires that OEMs generate a specific amount of NEV credits each year, with NEV credits of at least 14%, 16%, and 18% of the annual ICE passenger vehicle production or import volume required in 2021, 2022, and 2023, respectively. Future percentages are currently under consideration.



Safety and recall requirements in Brazil, China, India, and Gulf Cooperation Council (“GCC”) countries may add substantial costs and complexity to our global recall practice. Brazil has set mandatory fleet safety targets, and penalties are applied, if these levels are not maintained, while a tax reduction may be available for over-performance. In Canada, regulatory requirements are currently aligned with U.S. regulations; however, under the Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Act, the Minister of Transport has broad powers to order manufacturers to submit a notice of defect or non-compliance when the Minister considers it to be in the interest of safety. In 2021, Canada started preliminary consultations on several new proposed regulations, including an Administrative Monetary Penalties (“AMPs”) Regulation. Draft language for the AMPs regulation is expected in 2022. In China, a new mandatory Event Data Recorder regulation that is more comprehensive than U.S. requirements has been released, and in China, Malaysia, and South Korea, mandatory e-Call requirements are being drafted. E-Call is mandatory in the UAE for new vehicles beginning with the 2021 model year, and is expected to become mandatory in a number of other GCC countries within five years.


New Car Assessment Programs. Organizations around the world rate and compare motor vehicles in NCAPs to provide consumers and businesses with additional information about the safety of new vehicles. NCAPs use crash tests and other evaluations that are different than what is required by applicable regulations, and use stars to rate vehicle safety, with five stars awarded for the highest rating and one for the lowest. Achieving high NCAP ratings, which may vary by country or region, can add complexity and cost to vehicles. Similarly, environmental rating systems exist in various regions, e.g., Green NCAP in Europe. In China, C-NCAP has a stringent rating structure to decrease the number of five-star ratings. Further, the China Insurance Auto Safety Index (similar to IIHS) has been implemented, with higher standards for passenger and pedestrian protection and driver assistance technologies. These protocols impose additional requirements relating to testing, evaluation, and mandatory safety features, and compliance with them (or any subsequent updates to them) may be costly.


China presents unique risks to U.S. automakers due to the strain in U.S.-China relations and China’s unique regulatory landscape.
If industry vehicle sales were to decline to levels significantly below our planning assumption for key markets including the United States, Europe, or China, the decline could have a substantial adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flow.

Prior to becoming President and Chief Executive Officer, Ford of China, from 2010 to 2018, Anning Chen held several leadership roles in Chery Automobile LTD, China including: Chief Executive Officer; Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer; and Vice President of Products and Engineering. He also held the positions of Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chery Jaguar Land Rover Automotive, China; and Chairman of the Board, Qoros Automotive, China.
Consistent with the actions taken by governmental authorities, in late March 2020, we idled our manufacturing operations in regions around the world other than China, where manufacturing operations were suspended in January and February before beginning to resume operations in March.
In Asia, however, excess capacity declined from 19.3 million units in 2019 to 15.9 million in 2020 and to 15.2 million units in 2021, coming off a weak base for China’s economy and automotive sector during 2018 and 2019.
China (Including Taiwan)


In China, 2021 wholesales increased 5% from a year ago, driven by higher joint venture volumes. Full year 2021 consolidated revenue declined 20%, driven by product localization and the de-consolidation of our operations in Taiwan, partially offset by favorable import mix, higher component sales to our joint ventures in China, and stronger currencies.
China’s 2021 EBIT loss improved $172 million from a year ago with an EBIT margin of negative 12.8%. The EBIT improvement was driven by favorable mix of imported vehicles, higher joint venture profits and royalties, and higher net pricing, partially offset by lower volume at our consolidated operations.
Wholesales and Revenue – wholesale unit volumes include all Ford and Lincoln badged units (whether produced by Ford or by an unconsolidated affiliate) that are sold to dealerships, units manufactured by Ford that are sold to other manufacturers, units distributed by Ford for other manufacturers, and local brand units produced by our China joint venture, Jiangling Motors Corporation, Ltd. (“JMC”), that are sold to dealerships. Vehicles sold to daily rental car companies that are subject to a guaranteed repurchase option (i.e., rental repurchase), as well as other sales of finished vehicles for which the recognition of revenue is deferred (e.g., consignments), also are included in wholesale unit volumes. Revenue from certain vehicles in wholesale unit volumes (specifically, Ford badged vehicles produced and distributed by our unconsolidated affiliates, as well as JMC brand vehicles) are not included in our revenue.
In 2020, wholesales in our Automotive segment declined 22% from 2019, reflecting a decrease in each business unit other than China.
Asset groups are tested at the level of the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. Our asset groups presently are the regional Automotive business units (i.e., North America, South America, Europe, China (including Taiwan), and the International Markets Group), Ford Credit, and the separate legal entities within the Mobility segment.

Examinations by tax authorities have been completed through the following years: 2004 in India, 2006 in Mexico, 2008 in Germany, 2010 in Spain, 2011 in Canada, 2014 in the United States and the United Kingdom, and 2016 in China.
On March 1, 2021, we acquired Magna’s shares in the restructured GFT. The purchase price, which is subject to post-closing revisions, presently is estimated at $273 million. We expect that the purchase price revisions will be finalized by the first quarter of 2022. The restructured GFT includes the Halewood, UK and Cologne, Germany transmission plants, but excludes the Bordeaux, France transmission plant and China interests acquired by Magna.



There are likely material misstatements in the annual report, such as follows,

1.It is wrong to include Taiwan in China. It is also wrong to make management decisions based on this. The nature of risks in Taiwan is completely different from that in
 China.

2.Segment information puts China in the All other section, concealing risk exposure to China from investors.

3.It is also inappropriate for Ford to put its businesses in China and Taiwan in one asset group for impairment testing, and it is very likely that Ford’s accrual amount for asset impairment losses in 2019-2021 or even previous years is wrong. China Mainland lacks rule of law that prohibites environment pollution that could influence measurement of recoverable value.

4. In addition, the PCAOB of the United States was unable to check the audit papers of the accountants related to Ford's business in mainland China. The risk of fraud by Ford management in mainland China is high.

5.Ford failed to indicate whether Anning Chen(Chinese name:陈安宁) is a member of Chinese Communist Party or heading Chinese Communist Party's Ford Cell committee. Omission of this information makes it harder for investors to evaluate how likely Ford's China business is to be used for unifying Taiwan by China. Ford also failed to disclose how it prevents management of Ford China placing agenda of Chinese Communist Party above pure business. Chinese government‘s blocking PCAOB's inspection of audit papers in relation to Ford's China business is likely to result in internal control failures especially in upholding fairness for performance assessment and personnel nomination or promotion of Taiwan business's personnel by Anning Chen. It's the worse idea to put Taiwan into China business when China is a dictatorship and head of China Ford has been recruited into Chinese Communist Party's National Thousand Talent Program. It's possible that all employees or some senior managers of Ford's Taiwan business are spies assigned by Chinese Communist Party.



To be cautious about Ford's lobbying activities for China that may harm American state security, it's necessary to require Ford's management to be registered as foreign agent with Department of Justice before moving all businesses out of China.

GE's management is likely to become an agent of Xi Jinping regime

GE has 7 subsidiaries in China: GE Healthcare (China) Co., Ltd, GE Healthcare (Shanghai) Co Ltd, GE Hydro China Co., Ltd, GE Medical Systems Trade and Development (Shanghai) Co., Ltd, etc., which are involved in the CCP's medical, aviation, energy and other industries.



The above financial figures of GE as of 31 December 2021 have been issued an unqualified audit report. The PCAOB website states that it is unable to check the audit papers of accountants located in mainland China and Hong Kong related to the mainland China branch of non-China companies, although the major auditor is not located in mainland China and Hong Kong. There is high risk of GE management corruption and misstatement of financial statements of China business.



There's Great Firewall in China that prevents corruption being exposed.

GE and the CCP’s virus economy are tied together.

GE Healthcare China's digital healthcare strategy is based on the Edison digital healthcare intelligence platform, combining hospital intelligent management (APM, RCC Radiology Command Center, Mural Intensive Care Command Center), cloud computing (cloud ECG, cloud imaging) and artificial intelligence (Full-process artificial intelligence magnetic resonance technology platform, coronary medical image processing AI analysis system, COVID19 AI analysis platform LK2.0).

GE Healthcare has a CT scanning system and X-ray imaging system factory in Beijing, where two out of every three CTs in the world are produced; it has a contrast agent production base in Shanghai, and 90% of the contrast agent produced is supplied to the global market.

GE Healthcare has a production base for magnetic resonance imaging systems in Tianjin. One out of every two magnetic resonance products GE sells globally comes from the Tianjin factory; it has a factory in Wuxi for clinical care equipment such as ultrasound, anesthesia, ECG, and patient monitoring.

Ultrasound products produced by the Wuxi factory account for 40% of GE's global ultrasound sales.

GE has heavy reliance on made in China. Chinese Communist Party released viruses to benefit medial and biological giants, making GE's management more likely standing with CCP.

It's necessary to make laws to require any company or its management that transact with economies or invest in economies, where PCAOB's inspection is rejected, to register with Department of Justice as a foreign agent.




The information regarding GE's operation in China extracted from its annual report as follows:
global economic trends, competition and geopolitical risks, including changes in the rates of investment or economic growth in key markets we serve, or an escalation of sanctions, tariffs or other trade tensions between the U.S. and China or other countries, and related impacts on our businesses' global supply chains and strategies;
products, services and activities are subject to a number of global regulators such as the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) and other regulatory bodies.
RPO as of December 31, 2021 increased $1.7 billion (13%) from December 31, 2020 primarily due to new service contracts and renewals with large customers and from equipment on strong orders across all regions, notably in China and the U.S., as well as supply chain challenges in converting RPO to revenues.
Our operations and the execution of our business plans and strategies are subject to the effects of global economic trends, geopolitical risks and demand or supply shocks from events that could include war, a major terrorist attack, natural disasters or actual or threatened public health emergencies (such as COVID-19). They are also affected by local and regional economic environments and policies in the U.S. and other markets that we serve, including interest rates, monetary policy, inflation, economic growth, recession, commodity prices, currency volatility, currency controls or other limitations on the ability to expatriate cash, sovereign debt levels and actual or anticipated defaults on sovereign debt. For example, changes in local economic conditions or outlooks, such as lower rates of investment or economic growth in China, Europe or other key markets, affect the demand for or profitability of our products and services outside the U.S., and the impact on the Company could be significant given the extent of our activities outside the United States. Political changes and trends such as populism, protectionism, economic nationalism and sentiment toward multinational companies and resulting tariffs, export controls or other trade barriers, or changes to tax or other laws and policies, have been and may continue to be disruptive and costly to our businesses, and these can interfere with our global operating model, supply chain, production costs, customer relationships and competitive position. Further escalation of specific trade tensions, including intensified decoupling between the U.S. and China, or in global trade conflict more broadly could be harmful to global economic growth or to our business in or with China or other countries, and related decreases in confidence or investment activity in the global markets would adversely affect our business performance. We also do business in many emerging market jurisdictions where economic, political and legal risks are heightened.
We, our representatives, and the industries in which we operate are subject to continuing scrutiny by regulators, other governmental authorities and private sector entities or individuals in the U.S., the European Union, China and other jurisdictions, which have led or may, in certain circumstances, lead to enforcement actions, adverse changes to our business practices, fines and penalties, required remedial actions such as contaminated site clean-up or other environmental claims, or the assertion of private litigation claims and/or damages that could be material.
On December 1, 2021, we completed the sale of GE's share of our boiler manufacturing business in China in our Power segment. In connection with the transaction, we recorded a loss on the disposal of this business of $170 million in Other income in our Statement of Earnings (Loss). See Note 18 for further information.

Purchases and sales of business interests (a)Included a pre-tax loss of $170 million on the sale of our boiler manufacturing business in China in 2021.
Revenues are classified according to the region to which equipment and services are sold. For purposes of this analysis, the U.S. is presented separately from the remainder of the Americas.
