Communism is dying China 2018-2019 1 Socialism is dying. The days of socialism and communism are numbered. Socialism promises prosperity, but it delivers poverty. Socialism promises unity, but it delivers hatred and it delivers division. Socialism promises a better future, but it always returns to the darkest chapters of the past. Socialism is a sad and discredited ideology rooted in the total ignorance of history and human nature, which is why socialism, eventually, must always give rise to tyranny, which it does. Socialists profess a love of diversity, but they always insist on absolute conformity. We know that socialism is not about justice, it’s not about equality, it’s not about lifting up the poor. Socialism is about one thing only: power for the ruling class. Remarks of Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America Dedicated to Steve Bannon and Miles Kwok For all they have done for the Chinese people. This book is composed of selected posts by Cloudy Seagail, founder and CEO of followcn.com. 2 Chapter One China Highlights 2018-2019 Top 10 events related to China in 2018 As the year 2018 is close to an end, we are recalling the most important events that have a great impact on the lives of the Chinese people and international relations while highlighting the top 10 as follows: Guo Wengui’s whistle blows and 11.20 Press Briefing In the year of 2018, the Chinese god of war Miles Kwok has continued to make headlines with his whistle blows accusing CCP officials of corruption and other scandals. On November 20, former Trump strategist Steven Bannon joined Miles Kwok to host the Press Briefing on the death of Wang Jian and the Truth behind HNA Group. At the press event, Miles and Bannon announced a Rule of the Law Fund to fight the communist regime in China and help victims under CCP persecution. China-US trade war, G20 deal, and economic slow-down Escalation of the trade war between China and the US has put China in a weaker situation. Donald Trump and President Xi met at G20 on November 30th amid mounting worries that trade fights are undermining a weakening global economy. Although President Trump has agreed that on January 1, 2019, he will leave the tariffs on $200 billion worth of product at the 10% rate, and not raise it to 25% at this time, the Chinese economy has responded with down figures with lack of confidence from all walks of life. Arrest of Huawei CFO and related developments The arrest of Huawei CFO Meng Wanzhou in Vancouver on December 1st at the request of the US Justice Department has revealed in depth on China’s possible threats to world order by technology theft and more aggressive ambitions. The retaliated detention of Canadians has added to the heat of worsening relations between China and US allies in the west, not just Canada. US vice-president Mike Pence speech at Hudson Institute On October 3rd, US Vice-President Mike Pence made his remarks on Trump’s Administration’s Policy towards China. Miles Kwok said, “Pence has made a revolutionary, historical and game-changing speech on the latest US strategy targeting the Communist regime in China, which will definitely shake the world”; “This speech will help shape a new era of humanity, another historical event after Donald Trump’s speech at the UN General Assembly.” China’s detention of over one million Xinjiang Muslims in re-education camps At least one million people of China’s Muslim Uighur minority have been confined to political “re-education camps” redolent of the Mao era that are springing up across the country’s western borderlands in Xinjiang. This crime of the CCP in China has been widely condemned by the world 3 communities, and the Chinese government has done nothing good but denied the existence of related violations. China’s diplomatic setbacks in the Indo-Pacific region and conflicts in South China Sea China’s military build-up in the South China Sea has posed threats to bordering nations. The arrogance and bad performance of CCP officials in the ASEAN and APEC summits have shamed its own government as well as its Belt and Road Initiative. With the trade war escalation, the Chinese leadership is much worried that the excessively positive propaganda about China’s rise to become a world power and the repeated arrogance of its officials had backfired and hurt its image abroad. Interpol president Meng Hongwei went missing after traveling to China Interpol President Meng Hongwei was “taken away” for questioning by authorities immediately after his flight landed in China. His wife contacted police in Lyon, the French city where the agency has its headquarters, to report her husband as missing after not hearing from him since September 25. Before that, Human Rights organizations have claimed that Interpol should address China’s misuse of the “red notice” system and respect human rights after it has issued a notice for the arrest of exiled Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui. China’s religious crackdown and persecution of activists This year China has tightened regulations on religious freedom, intensifying punishments for unsanctioned activities and increasing its supervision of certain groups in a bid to “block extremism” and tackle what it sees as internal threats. Examples of violations include demolishing churches and temples, burning bibles, persecuting worshippers and detaining pastors. Beijing has stepped up its crackdown on civil society since President Xi Jinping took power in 2012, tightening restrictions on freedom of speech and jailing hundreds of activists and lawyers. Movie Star Fan Bingbing’s Disappearance Raises Questions About the Chinese Justice System 37-year old Fan Bingbing is China’s best-known actress and the nation’s highest-paid celebrity for four years running, earning a reported $43 million last year. She was featured in TIME’s list of the 100 most influential people in 2017 and is well-known in Hollywood. Fan was accused in May of tax evasion and went missing under mysterious circumstances. She was finally fined US$70 million for her violations. Her disappearance has raised lots of concern about her wellbeing as well as the country’s vicious legal system. Taiwan’s midterm elections and CCP’s interference Taiwan President Tsai Ing-wen announced her resignation as head of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) after the party suffered massive losses in November’s “nine-in-one” local elections. Some critics say that communist China is the bigger winner in this Taiwan election. It is their victory by BGY. But others think that for the long run it is the victory of the Chinese people as they have more understanding of the nature of the CCP and what it means by freedom and democracy. The most popular and important keyword for China 2018: Joke 4 China Foreign Ministry spokesman is the biggest joke of all Press Conference by the Foreign Ministry spokesmen is a piece of scenery. They are all good at telling lies as well as telling jokes. Ms. Hua Chunying likes to make up stories while accusing the US of “fabricating facts”. She is good at “lifting up a stone to have her own toes squashed”. Mr. Lu Kang seems to have fears every time he comes onto the stage. Like at the G20, when he was supposed to introduce Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi to speak, he makes these remarks, “Now let’s invite Miles Kwok to the stage”. China’s Great Firewall and internet censorship is a joke While Ms. Hua Chunying is laughing at the US building walls at the Mexican border as China is building bridges, she has forgotten that China has built the notorious Great Firewall and tightened its censorship, trying to seal up everyone’s mouth with CCP propaganda. President Xi says the Party governs everything and he is going to stick to this dictatorship. At a time of booming social media, CCP’s censorship is doomed as a joke. President Xi Jinping has become a joke with Winnie the Pooh and more President Xi is widely known to be the new emperor without clothes. While Xi often emphasizes his self-confidence or even 4 self-confidences in the road he has chosen, he has no confidence for Winnie the Pooh to become just a teddy bear for Chinese kids. While Xi always stresses the mission of the CCP party to strive for the happiness of its 1.3 billion people, he has become a joke to expel those “low-class people” from the capital on cold winter days. We know that President Xi likes to show off his knowledge in traditional Chinese culture; he often speaks the wrong words or makes other stupid mistakes in his speeches. Now more and more people tend to call him “Xi Jinpooh”. China’s so-called rule of law is but a joke The most-talked about words about China this year might be the term “rule of law”. While the communist government accused Canada and the US for the arrest of Huawei CFO, it recklessly detained two innocent Canadians. While it demolishes temples and churches, burns the Bibles, jails one million Muslims in re-education camps, and persecutes hundreds of lawyers standing up for human rights, the CCP firmly states that China is a country with the rule of law. In many cases, when a court is open for an important case, we shall soon see the arrest of the top prosecutors by the Discipline Inspection Authorities; and Dalian court is one example. The whole nation knows the top CCP officials with crimes of corruption and sex scandals are leading the country’s legal system.
