Each and every one of our state governors has approved and
allocated a certain amount of acres of their U.S. state land
to be inhabited by Chinese communists --communists straight
from China!

They are to set up little towns and live here, supposedly for
the purpose of producing Chinese products for sale in the
U.S.A.

The land the states are giving them for their little
towns will be considered "foreign territory"!!!

We are told that the laws of the state (in which these Chinese
communists dwell) will apply to the communist Foreign Trade
Zone (FTZ).
Comment: If so, why are they allowed in here!??!

Isn't the whole set up unlawful???

There are 257 of these little communist towns to be built all
over the United States.

Go to this website and see the list of the states, and how many
FTZ's are to be erected in each and every state!

Our nation is being peppered all over with these communist
closed towns called "zones"!

This insane brainstorm by Washington, D.C. officials was just
recently discovered by alert citizens in the State of Idaho,
where an FTZ is being built there, just south of Boise, Idaho,
possibly 30,000 acres of Idaho is going to be used for that
FTZ.

Workers claim abuse as China adds Zimbabwe to its scramble for Africa -



HARARE - In the evening gloom the vast complex emerges into view.
Beyond a high security wall, insects dance in the beam of a
giant floodlight.
Men are still hard at work in the skeletons of concrete tower
blocks, and standing at the centre of it all is the arch of
a Chinese pagoda.
Zimbabwe's national defence college is under construction
within a sprawling, heavily-guarded compound whose brooding
presence sends a clear message to any would-be revolutionary.
Some have dubbed it the "Robert Mugabe national school of
intelligence".

The construction site north of Harare has also become the
lightning rod for another source of simmering resentment –
Chinese labour practices.

Surrounded by a perimeter wall that runs for a kilometre through
what was once farmland, the shadowy military academy is being
built by a Chinese contractor whose managers are accused of
meting out physical punishments, miserable conditions
and meagre pay.

"The beatings happen very often," said a 28-year-old carpenter,
wearing blue overalls as he made the long walk home after a
14-hour shift.
"They ill-treat you and, if you make a mistake, they beat you
up.

"I saw some men beaten up yesterday. A guy complained:
'You're not treating us like human beings,' and the Chinese
replied:
'You should appreciate we've come to assist you.'
They beat him up and he was fired."
He estimated that there were about 600 Zimbabwean and 300
Chinese workers on the site.
Around 50 of the Chinese were managers.
Some of the Chinese have "nice homes inside" while others
live in wooden shacks just outside the complex.
The Zimbabweans and Chinese rarely mix, he added.
"They don't speak English so we use sign language.
The Chinese eat off plates, then give us the leftovers."

The carpenter said he typically gets up at 4am and works
from 7am to 9pm every day.

For this he is paid $4 (£2.50) a day, but at least it is
work so he can feed his wife and three children.

"We don't have a choice because we need to survive.

But if it was possible to chase all the Chinese away, I would."

Reports of abuse by managers at the Chinese contractor, Anhui
Foreign Economic Construction Company (AFECC), are widespread,
as are complaints that the government is turning a blind eye
because it cannot afford to lose such a valuable partner.

A 26-year-old builder, on his way to a nightshift, said:
"We tried to go on strike but the leader of it was beaten up
and sacked.
The government doesn't say anything, even though it knows
people are beaten up.
I saw them undress some workers and beat them with helmets.
Some of them were crying with the pain.
"We feel angry but we need money, so there is no choice.
If you don't work 10 hours, there is no money."
Attempts to contact AFECC by telephone and email were
unsuccessful.
The company's website refers to projects in Ivory Coast,
Mozambique and Zambia, and describes how the project team
of the Zimbabwe national defence college raised $4,570 for
a carpenter, Chen Zongde, whose son needed treatment
for leukaemia.

Zimbabwe received a Chinese loan of $98m to build the college.
It will be repaid over 20 years through earnings from the
Marange diamond fields, which are being mined by another
Chinese firm amid widespread claims of human rights
violations under military control.

Okay Machisa, director of the Zimbabwe Human Rights Association,
said:
"Parliament approving such a debt without consulting
Zimbabeweans is very serious.
Why are we prioritising an army intelligence college instead
of universities and hospitals?

"Harare has no electricity most of the time and the water
is not good for human consumption. It shows we are trying
to keep Zimbabwe under the control of state security."

China's commercial empire has expanded enormously in Africa
over the past decade and Zimbabwe is trying to catch up.

Trade between the two countries stood at $550m last year,
according to the Chinese embassy.

The government in Harare has announced that China plans up to
$10bn in investments over the next five years, more than in
any other country.

Diamonds and other mineral resources are the main attraction,
but Chinese entrepreneurs have also seized opportunities in
construction, manufacturing and retail.
Chinese restaurants are booming, attracting top politicians
and businessmen.
Shops are flooded with cheap Chinese imports, or "zhing-zhong",
of dubious quality.
Zimbabwean vendors claim they are being undercut and put out
of work.
Just as a recent Human Rights Watch report alleged poor
conditions at Chinese-run copper mines in neighbouring Zambia,
so there is growing antipathy and mistrust in Zimbabwe.
Trade unions have called for action and even members of
Mugabe's Zanu-PF party have expressed disquiet.
Machisa said:
"We've got alarming, shocking human rights abuses in firms
operated by the Chinese.
We've got empirical evidence that is going to shock the people
of Zimbabwe.
They are physically abusing the workers.
They are psychologically terrorising the workers.
"But they are not being prosecuted. There is a culture of impunity."
Others believe the problem is a cultural misunderstanding.
A Chinese immigrant, 29-year-old Li Chen, said: "If Chinese people work from 8am till 8pm they have no problem. Sometimes they ask their employees to do the same and it makes them unhappy. It will not happen.
"It's a different culture. If people sit down and talk and understand each other, it should change." - Guardian
