Chinese Penetration

Claws of the Panda 27 Comments

No not that kind. Get your mind out of the gutter.

More than 500 federally funded scientists are under investigation for being compromised by China and other foreign powers, the National Institutes of Health revealed Thursday. The federal health officials told a Senate committee that they are fighting to keep up with large-scale Chinese efforts to corrupt American researchers and steal intellectual property that scientists hope will lead to biomedical advances.

  2. There has to be a point behind all the Chinese students in Canada and the US. They could teach their own people cheaper and likely better. My guess – there is a price that they pay for their education. The price is paid in intellectual property from whatever organizations they can slip their way into.

    1. A university degree conveys a great deal of status in certain parts of the world. Admission to university is often a competition and the rejection rate is high.

      Many of the rejects go elsewhere to get their education. Even though many Canadian universities aren’t at the same level as certain Chinese institutions, getting a degree from a foreign school often makes up for not being able to attend one in the top tier over there.

      In other words, we’re educating a lot of university rejects from overseas. Often, they’re from families that are loaded, so their presence is welcome because they bring lots of $$$.

      It’s all a money game now.

      1. “Even though many Canadian universities aren’t at the same level as certain Chinese institutions, ”

        Actually Canadian universities tend to be much better. Chicom universities are nearly universally shit. There are some highly selective programs of strategic importance (often military) where they make sure only the best get in. Outside of those it is bribery, corruption and incompetence. Old commie model transplanted from 70s Soviet Union prevails on most Chicom campuses.

        1. There’s a technical university in Nanjing that is on par with places such as Caltech and MIT. I knew an alumna of that institution and she was quite smart, at least academically.

          1. Yes there is handful world class elite schools, I agreed to that. But chicom average is below Canada average, US average or anywhere in a civilized world average.

  3. The left will love the tolerance and diversity Chinese rule will bring.

    I wonder how Toronto’s Muslim population will fair, any better than the Uighur’s? In fairness we should already be telling Canada’s First Nations to start using their “Treaties” for toilet paper while they still have some value.

    1. They killed a few of their own erecting a large oil storage tank a few years back.
      Low bid “wins”.
      We now pay with stifling safety programs for office work.

    2. I heard about that happening at Tumbler Ridge over a decade ago. The excuse was the Chinese miners were “specialists” at extracting the coal that’s there and were, therefore, essential. (“Essential” as in being cheap labour, more likely.)

      The federal government at the time nixed that one.

      1. I knew a coal miner who applied there just so they couldn’t say they couldn’t find any Canadians. He was a lifelong miner working in Southern BC and the Alberta foothills.

        1. they couldn’t find any Canadians

          That was the argument used by many of those outfits that imported their cheap labour.

  5. This is all a continuation of the Chinese “bring them down from within” strategy.

    Steal enough technology to catch up to the West.
    Promote and fund internal movements such as anti-gas, anti-mining, anti-nuclear groups as well as the Green new deal.
    Fund extremist positions to divide us.
    Encourage censorship and racial divides.
    Undercut pricing to drive American companies out of targeted industries and become sole suppliers of electronic parts, building materials, metals, etc…
    Interfere in elections to the point of electing the weakest President in the last 100 years.

    Which results in what we are seeing now:

    China threatening to move on Taiwan
    Iran accelerating their Nuclear Program.
    Russia moving on Ukraine.
    Afghanistan being abandoned .
    Turning away from supporting Israel.
    China building 600 coal power plants while the US has brownouts and blackouts in Texas, California, and energy instability throughout the the US.

    We need to get ourselves back on track or we will lose this fight, permanently.

  6. This has been noticed before.

    It just hasn’t been widely commented on.

    It’s rather like those guys who now realise that evacuating the Titanic might be a good idea.

  7. I can’t remember the source but recently I read that the FBI on average opens a new investigation of Chinese nationals (CCP agents?) every 11 hours. I don’t know why the Chicoms would be so active when they just need to sit back and we will continue self-destructing. I don’t know how we could do that any faster than with what our cultural and elected leaders are already doing for that cause.

  10. Don’t overlook the fact that these “scientists” will do anything and say anything for a grant.
    Hence the “climate change” crisis.
    Hence the CV19 “science based” overreaction.
    Repeat ad nauseum.

  11. Remember: Jul. 14, 2019 — A researcher with ties to China was recently escorted out of the National Microbiology Lab in Winnipeg … Dr. XXXXXXX, her husband XXXXX and an unknown number of her students from China were removed from Canada’s only level-4 lab on July 5, CBC News has learned.
    CBC story, will not link. Yes, I blanked out the names.
    I’m sure it’s nothing.

  13. China has already bought most of BC’s public school system with endowments and scholarships.
