Be mentally prepared, CCP is ready for mutual destruction
 
(20 Apr) The Liaison Office of the Central People’s Government and Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office are the “black hands” behind Carrie Lam and the HK police, hence both offices have recently came forward and gave directions directly. The “black hands” behind these two offices are, of course, the Politburo Standing Committee of the CCP and Xi Jinping himself, who control the whole situation.
 
All in all, the situations in Hong Kong and China are interlinked. We would understand when we look at the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs; sometimes they would be aggressive like wolf warriors, and sometimes they would pretend to be rational; the Foreign Ministry spokesperson and the ambassador to the US fought each other. These are things that a dignified country would never do. The Chinese Foreign Ministry is too used to playing the wolf warrior, and they couldn’t bow down all in a sudden as it’d be too unsightly, plus the group of Chinese wumao and little pinkies wouldn’t be pleased if they did. Therefore, they have been distorting the truth for months, and now, they are finally determined to let the world burn with them.
 
//the good outcome would be to maintain the stalemate of no interaction with each other and to keep the country behind closed doors. The bad outcome would be to start a war.//
 
//Since the CCP have prepared for mutual destruction, they no longer have any worries about the suppression of Hong Kong.//

Exclusive: India foreign investment rules aimed at China to include Hong Kong

//New Indian rules to ensure scrutiny of investments from companies based in neighbouring countries, especially during the coronavirus outbreak, will also apply to Hong Kong

//foreign direct investments from countries with which it shares a land border would require prior government approval to deter “opportunistic” takeovers and acquisitions during the pandemic

//A substantial part of Chinese investments is routed through the Asian financial centre given its market expertise and deep pool of liquidity.

//“It’s common sense how Hong Kong investment should be taken. Investment from there is no different to China,”

//Some experts believe the total investment coming through Chinese entities is far higher as it is routed through multiple jurisdictions.

//The new rules govern entities located in a country that shares a land border with India and will be applicable even if the “beneficial owner” of an investment is from those nations.

//the new rules of scrutiny would apply to foreign direct investments in greenfield projects.

//The new rules are seen slowing down investment timelines and straining Indian startups that get regular funding from major Chinese companies, especially when the coronavirus outbreak has already hit them hard.

//India took the decision after several local industry groups flagged concerns around Chinese inflows during the spread of coronavirus that had made some Indian businesses more vulnerable to takeovers

//Several ministries, including India’s foreign affairs department, then pitched for changes and studied similar restrictions that had been imposed by countries such as Germany and Australia
