You win mate - that Bono joke was way better *coughs*. Here's another: If Bono and Bob Geldof were both drowning and you could only save one of them, what kind of sandwich would you make?
That's what all the other party cadres told Xi ;o)
From the articles: "As a former "entertainment soldier" herself, Peng sang for the troops enforcing martial law right after the Tiananmen Square protests were brutally crushed in June 1989." "From breaking everyday rules, to allegedly providing sex for ...
Despite the best efforts of China's censors to scrub the internet some information still leaks out. Here's Peng Liyuan singing for the troops after Tienanmen Square massacre: http://www.thatsmags.com/china/post/7201/chinese-muckraker-exiled-from-social-...
Why should selling books be a crime? Why would the CCP have its Ministry of State Security agents go to all the trouble of kidnapping the publishers of a few a books unless they were deeply embarrassed by their contents?
Well he went there first is all I'll say. And it's true by the way. The Hong Kong booksellers were kidnapped, illegally transported to mainland China and forced to make confessions under duress for publishing this very fact. Her other claim to fame is ...
You mean African dictators like Mugabe and his cronies who are enjoying the looted proceeds of the Marange diamond fields in Zimbabwe while partnering with equally corrupt Chinese mining companies? - Sure. Ordinary African citizens getting nothing from ...
Hey Wei, don't knock Asian skanks buddy. Your illustrious president Xi Jinping married a former prostitute, so if it's good enough for him...
"A PLA Intelligence officer based at the Chinese Embassy in Wellington.” How's your boy Jian Yang been doing lately? One would hope there's been a drop in worthwhile information flowing the Chinese Embassy's way since he got booted into opposition. It was ...
@ Wei I'm an ESOL teacher and I have to say while your English it pretty good, I'm having my doubts that you're a third generation Chinese New Zealander, born and bred here as you claim. When I see a sentence like: "But when Asians (indeed any group of ...
@ Wei “The only evidence there is is he may have been less than 100% honest in terms of his CV. ” Please tell me you’re joking. He lied on both his residency and citizenship applications. That’s 2 extremely serious criminal offences and NZ immigration law ...
I look forward to your spirited argument about why New Zealand citizens should be able to purchase land and property in China, Wei. I'm sure you believe in reciprocal entitlements for citizens of both NZ and China, right?
You're not seriously going to attempt to pull off that completely rubbish argument about the "Han Chinese being good for the indigenous Tibetan population" are you? When China illegally invaded Tibet in 1950 (so much for the claim that "peaceful China ...
It is when the National Party controls it. Their wonderful 'Blue Dragons' came very close to earning them another 3 years in government. Had they been allowed to continue gerrymandering NZ's population, they may well have been able to pull off continued ...
@ Mike Smith LMAO!!! Are you seriously trying to suggest China isn't a dictatorship? Do you work for the Chinese Embassy in Wellington or the Auckland branch of the Chinese Communist Party's 'United Front Work Department'?
"China was the world's worst abuser of internet freedom for a third straight year in 2017, due to stepped-up online censorship, a new law cracking down on anonymity online and the imprisonment of dissidents using the web." Sounds like a great country. God ...
With some help from the Chinese Communist Party's 'United Front Work Department' and a few more generous donations to the National Party from shady Chinese businessmen, it's definitely not outside the realms of possibility.
Nobody's talking about CV's here. They're not legal documents. A citizenship application certainly is though. The requirement to be 100% truthful when completing them or face deportation is spelled out in black and white to all applicants.
I agree we don't need Thiel. There's no evidence he lied on his citizenship application like Yang did though. He was straight-up that he never intended to live here.
Agreed. Matt Nippert is NZ's best (only?) MSM investigative journalist right now IMHO. He'd better watch it though. If he keeps this up Matthew Hooton will be slipping his home address to Cathy Odgers.
"Have we been buying inferior Chinese industrial equipment merely to reciprocate balance of trade in order for China to continue to buy our dairy trade?" To answer your question - Yes. http://www.radionz.co.nz/news/national/308464/huntly-bypass-steel-...
From the Immigration NZ link in the article: Penalties- 'Those found guilty of immigration fraud can be imprisoned for up to 7 years and/or fined up to NZ $100,000." 'People who use immigration fraud to become New Zealand residents can be deported.' ...
The turd that just won't flush...
Despite your apparent view that Parker is as big a dimwit as Steven Joyce, he isn't. I'm sure he's given consideration to these concerns and will provide a suitable solution to them. If people already have to provide their IRD numbers when they purchase ...
And because New Zealanders are have complete access to Australia's labour market and can reside there as long they want (albeit with some reduced benefits compared to Australian citizens). No other country allows NZ citizens those rights.
That's exactly what I was thinking. Two years ago they were telling us we were fantasising about foreign buyers having any impact at all on the NZ housing market. Now they're trying to spin the line that the new law will make no difference at all because ...
This explains the Clinton/Uranium beat-up pretty well. https://www.stuff.co.nz/world/americas/98350167/republicans-trying-to-shift-blame-on-russian-hacking-to-hillary-clinton
National spent 9 years claiming the previous Labour government was responsible for every problem that occurred during its term. Therefore it's only fair that Labour should be allowed to put the blame for the myriad of disasters they've inherited at ...
If I was to call for the assassination of "Sir" John Key for selling out New Zealand's sovereignty, it'd take about about 10 minutes before I was in handcuffs answering some very tough questions for the Diplomatic Protection Squad. If I suggested the same ...
Sounds like a very sore loser to me. I'm lapping this shit up! ;o)
"Fuck! Those Commie bastards are going to publish my salary!"
