June 16 A Wall Street Journal story drew a crowd. The book, Secret Empires: How The U.S. Political Class Hid Corruption and Enrich Family and Friends (the secret Empire), revealed “chao’s family’s businesses” and easily secured “hundreds of millions of dollars in business.” Ms Zhao’s father was a classmate of Mr Jiang, so the revelation is significant.
Conservative author Peter Schweizer is president of the Institute for Government Accountability.
The Huazhong report says the author of the forthcoming book, ‘Secret Empire,’ is Peter Schweizer, an American investigative journalist and conservative author.
In his book “The Secret Empire,” Schweitzer cites public information such as news reports and company records as evidence. Tries to prove that China by offering us dignitaries family business investment opportunities and tried to gain influence on American politics, including the former U.S. vice President Joe biden and former secretary of state John kerry family company, and the current senate majority leader mitch McConnell and his wife, the us transportation secretary Elaine chao family enterprises with hundreds of millions of dollars in business.
In his book, Schweitzer writes that Fumao, run by the family of U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and now Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, has significant business ties to the China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSMC). According to the book, Fumao’s ships are made by China’s state-run shipyards and partly funded by the Chinese government. The ships employ Chinese crews while operating and also carry cargo for Chinese state-owned companies.
Separately, in 2008, Ms. Chao and Mr. McConnell received gifts worth $5 million to $25 million from Mr. Chao, the founder of Fumao and Ms. Chao’s father, more than doubling Mr. McConnell’s personal wealth, according to a financial disclosure document for government officials.
Ms. Chao’s sister, Angela Chao, was appointed to the board of The Bank of China 10 days after the 2016 U.S. election, Mr. Schweitzer added. Ms. Zhao is chairman and chief executive of Fumao, according to her personal page.
However, It quoted “U.S. Justice Department officials” as saying that schweitzer’s evidence was “doubtful and conclusive.” But the investigation will continue.
The Chao family resurfaces; Another riddle about Jiang Zemin’s political career?
According to the data, Jiang zemin and Zhao Xiaolan’s father Zhao Xicheng entered Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 1946 at the same time, and they studied different majors. But Mr Jiang and Mr Zhao are still regarded as “schoolboys”.
Chao was born in Taiwan Province and moved to New York City with her father at the age of 8. In 1986, under President Ronald Reagan, Chao joined the U.S. federal government as “Deputy Administrator of the Federal Shipping Agency.” After the Tiananmen Massacre in 1989, Jiang Zemin became the head of the Communist Party. In the same year, President George H.W. Bush appointed Elaine Chao as the federal Undersecretary of Transportation. In 2001, Chao became the 24th federal Secretary of Labor, making her the first AsiAn-American woman secretary and the first Chinese-American cabinet secretary.
In November 2016, Chao was nominated by Trump to be the new transportation secretary.
Chao is also the longest-serving U.S. Labor secretary since World War II, and the only cabinet secretary to remain in office since 2001.
Want to mention is that in 1993, Elaine chao and 15th leaders in the United States senate republicans union, McConnell (Mitch McConnell) married, on the Internet about “is Elaine chao father James chao jiang students” reports, “old friendship because Zhao Fu and jiang zemin, coupled with Elaine zhao, who was born in Taiwan, so the wedding ceremony’s envoy to the United States on both sides are to be present on obtaining”.
After their marriage, “they had a grand wedding reception at the Hilton Hotel in New York City, attended by over 170 guests from home and abroad.” The then Chinese ambassador to the United States, Li Daoyu, the subordinate sun of Li Hongzhang, was also a guest of honor.
Both Jiang and Zhu met with Chao and her husband, Mitch McConnell, during their visits to the United States. The Global Network of Chinese Professionals has reported that Chao has “very good connections” in U.S. and Chinese politics, calling Jiang “his uncle” because her father was a classmate.
Jiang has met with Zhao and her husband on all three of her visits to China. In the early years of Zhao’s father’s visit to Beijing, Jiang Zemin also “met with him personally”.
Zhao’s father, Zhao Xicheng, who is known as “The Six Golden Flowers of the Zhao family”, is the eldest of six daughters. Second sister Zhao Xiaoqin is a master’s degree from the prestigious College of William and Mary; Zhao Xiaomei has a master’s degree from Harvard Business School. Four younger sister Zhao Xiaofu received a doctorate in law from Columbia University; Five younger sister Zhao Xiaoting, also harvard Business School master’s degree.
Anji Zhao, mentioned in Schweitzer’s “Secret Empire,” is the sixth youngest sister. After earning an MBA from Harvard Business School, Zhao’s father assigned her to work for his shipping company, Fumao.
Mr Schweitzer notes that Mr Zhao was “appointed to the board of The Bank of China” just “10 days after the 2016 US election“.
