Since the enactment of China's anti-espionage law, there have been many cases of foreigners being detained or arrested in China. Because "suspicious espionage" is mainly handled not only by public security but also by the National Security Agency, the interrogation is the most severe and the detention environment is inhumane. Following the passage of the Anti-Espionage Law, the local government's National Security Office enacted rules encouraging reporting of "espionage." Since 2017, the Beijing Municipal State Security Bureau has been offering rewards of up to 500,000 yuan (8.5 million yen; 645,400 US dollars) to encourage the informant system. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 It is a situation in which even Chinese people can be accused of "violating the law" simply by contributing to foreign newspapers or responding to interviews on foreign television. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 Anti-espionage law (Counter-espionage Law) is a law that regulates activities such as the National Security Agency, which was enacted in 2014 to crack down on "espionage activities". At the end of 2022, the Chinese government expanded the definition of "espionage" from the current law. He announced a plan to expand the "anti-espionage law" to strengthen the authority of the National Security Agency, which leads the crackdown, and penalties for those arrested. An expanded anti-espionage law was passed in July 2023. The proposed expansion of the Anti-Espionage Law requires that state secret information be provided to a third party in a concrete manner as it is, and that documents and materials related to state secrets that may adversely affect national security or interests. Providing and "stealing" will also fall under "espionage". 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 The proposed expansion of the "anti-espionage law" would greatly increase the powers of the National Security Agency, the agency that is responsible for the investigation, and could, for example, force tests on those targeted for "espionage" and ban them from leaving the country. Depending on the judgment of the National Security Agency, an extremely wide range of "information leaks" will be covered, and cases such as public information leaked from private companies and public institutions that do not comply with the intentions of the National Security Agency will be exposed. And if a person refuses an information request from the National Security Agency for "espionage" by a colleague or another person, that person can at least be fined. The proposed expansion of the "anti-espionage law" would allow the Chinese government to unfairly detain Japanese and foreigners in China, increasing scrutiny of Japanese and foreigners in China. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 A university professor was suddenly detained just before returning to Japan, and an appeal by a Japanese sentenced to prison was easily dismissed by the court. As the number of people has increased, the number of Japanese and foreigners who will be arrested will increase in the future due to the expansion of the definition of the "anti-espionage law". The Chinese government will give the State Security Agency the power to search the bags of those suspected of "espionage" and to bar citizens from leaving the country who may "endanger" national security. A “fine” is imposed for refusing to provide evidence of spying on others. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 In addition to the provision of "state secrets" under the current law, the proposed expansion of "espionage" includes "stealing" and "collecting" "other documents, data, materials, and goods related to national security and interests, etc. There is no mention of what is contrary to national security or interests. Collecting information about Chinese companies and collecting historical materials are also considered "espionage" if the National Security Administration determines that they are against "national interests." In the political report of the Communist Party Congress in October last year, Xi Jinping repeatedly referred to “national security,” calling on party members to “perform a comprehensive view of national security.” This "security view" presented in 2014 covers 11 items, including "politics," national land, military affairs, economy, and "culture." “Political security” refers to the maintenance and stability of the Communist Party regime. In China, where there is no alternative to the Communist Party, there is a perception that if the party loses power, the country will split and fall into chaos. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 The powers of the National Security Agency are endlessly strengthened. The expanded proposal stipulates that electronic devices, equipment and programs of persons or organizations suspected of espionage can also be investigated. Many researchers and business people with connections to China will be affected by the proposed expansion. There are 17 Japanese detained in connection with the "anti-espionage law." In the future, this number will undoubtedly increase. Foreign researchers may be detained if they conduct research in China. Xi Jinping has strengthened his stance of emphasizing "national security," but the definition is ambiguous, and the government's arbitrary judgment is subject to exposure. In China, the Communist Party exists above the law. The proposed expansion of the "anti-espionage law" plays a greater role in keeping things out of China. Japanese and foreigners visiting China run the risk of being detained. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 In China, (1) the state can force Chinese nationals at home and abroad to carry out military activities in their respective countries (National Defense Mobilization Law, effective in 2010); (2) the state can force Chinese nationals at home and abroad to do spy activities in their respective countries. (National Intelligence Law, effective 2017). Chinese citizens who do not follow the instructions and orders of the Chinese government will be arrested and have no option to decline. Together, these two laws create the most dangerous security situation for every country. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇨🇦🇺🇸🇯🇵 The world will decouple from China and Russia. The world will put the most severe economic sanctios on China as we do on Russia. 🇯🇵🇺🇦🇹🇼🇱🇹🇺🇸🇬🇧🇨🇦🇪🇺🇯🇵

This is a man who is broken by his destructive achievements. He was a scientist who wanted to discover but not delete people. I can feel his sorrow… This man went to his grave with a heavy heart. He said what he had to say because his loyalty was always questioned. In 1954 he was summoned to a security hearing as the US wanted to confirm his loyalty. Oppenheimer understood that the punishment for perceived treason were heavy. He was forced to participate in the Manhattan project. This was not a voluntary decision but a survival decision. It is important to note that America did not hit military targets as they should have , but they targeted innocent people in Japan. At the same time, the US proceeded in rounding up Japanese descent Americans in concentration camps. These are war crimes and the War Mongers and President have never been tried or prosecuted for the half millions of innocent Japanese who were deleted. There is no celebration or medals that should be given for deleting innocent civilians. I still do not understand how the USA can legally commit such acts of terror with impunity. I read somewhere that the pilot who dropped the Hiroshima bomb went to sleep after deleting all these helpless civilian Japanese. But, yet the USA were judging Hitler while they did the exact same thing. Please make it make sense. 😮

THe american people wont shy away from competition but they don't want a fight. But this committee does want a fight. The committee's goal is to convince the American people that a war would be good for the US Oligaarchs, I mean the american people. The US has be increasingly agressive in its economic war on China, and has been increasingly agressive in expaning it's military on the doorsteps of China. For this committee the ideal military conflict with China would be a proxy fought over Taiwan that might result in 100,000 Taiwanese killed. Peace is to avoided at all costs. What is protecting Taiwan from a US provoked war is its silicon shield. A US provoked proxy war would start with a military sea and air blockade that prevents Taiwanese chips from reaching the US that would cause a trillion dollar hit to the US economy and a 2 trillion hit to the global economy. Congressman Moulton said in such a war the US will bomb TSMC to the ground. THe 2nd deterent to a US provoked war is the uncertainty that the US would win such a war. And the 3rd deterent is the state of the US economy, the huge debt and deficit and a world scrambling as fast as it can to stop using the US dollar. China is starting to fight back in the economic war after almost 4 years of not retaliating against > 600 sanctions against Chinese companies. Micron corp is the 1st target and it will not be the last. This committee will want the economic war expanded and China will retaliate more. This committee wants a stronger military posture, put missiles on those 9 or 17 bases in the Phillipines. The US spends 4.3% of its GDP on its military. China could respond by increasing its defense budget from 1.4% of GDP to 3+%. It's already large navy will be double the size of the US navy in 10 years.
