@historyrepeatscubed726
@historyrepeatscubed726 2 года назад
Good to see someone who totally gets it. By tying up housing (leaving it empty) it causes a restriction of supply which, when the demand is constant or increasing, causes the price to rise through extra competition for the limited number of properties for sale. That, and no doubt, most of those empty properties are let out to fake tenants who pay 'real' rent every month to the trustee holding company (owner). But the rent is in fact the proceeds of crime which has been laundered clean through our convenient, nationwide network of money-laundering casinos, kindly brought to you by your local cartel of corrupt state politicians in conjunction with the Pakker family estate.

If you want to know where our unstoppable property boom has come from, look no further than the content of this video. To think that our successive governments were not in on this knowledge is foolhardy. Our current government and previous governments have actively sought to grease the path for Chinese money to flow into Australia and into our property market, with full knowledge that a percentage of that money is of criminal origin. The issue for the current federal government is that the inflation of the property market "IS" the Australian economy, so the brakes have been disconnected on prudential management of the property market.

Fun fact, they, too, are having some internal turmoil at the moment.

Is a company still legal if it was set up or capitalized with “illegal” money? I don’t know, but I’d be interested in hearing a legal opinion on that. If I robbed a bank and then invested that in property, the feds could seize that asset. If I made millions from drugs, then got caught, all my assets could be seized. That’s for sure so I’m guessing a company formed by dirty money would be the same, no?

@@fidget2020 yes it would but that depends on the jurisdiction. You would have to look at Australia's penal code. [assuming its universal to the entire federation] The proceeds of fraud and corruption should no longer be enjoyed a convicted defendant. This is a concept from the doctrine of equity which is used in most common law jurisdictions and Australia is one. A company formed to clean the proceeds of crime would be illegal and once its illegality is proven, an equitable remedy would be to seize its assets and repatriate money back to whom it was stolen. I am sure there are many cases from common law jurisdictions to prove this. You can check All England Law Reports for some. I am a second year law student just in case you are wondering.

If the money was not taken out illegally, what are they doing trying to seize the money and "repatriate" it to who knows who? Makes me think that their contact in China isn't really the government of China. It's a corrupt official who is in fact trying to steal the money for himself.

The houses may sit empty, but most of them have fake tenants paying 'real' rent each month which is sourced from casino-laundered black money. Once it gets paid as rent, the owner can justifiably operate a property management company and pay taxes to look all legitimate and shit. Owning so many properties, but leaving them empty, gives an organisation the ability to manipulate the housing and rental prices in an area, a state, or a country. They can withold properties to shorten up supply to force prices up - and they can also release properties to flood the market and drive prices down too. It's a practice known as 'land banking'. And YES, the same thing goes on in Australia on a GRAND SCALE.

There seems to be a very warped idea and a very wide definition of illegal money from China...their not looking for "stolen" money at all(not all of it anyway) but at case`s of people(and companies) moving their own money out of China

The only problem with that is even if you are a Chinese billionaire you can't take more than 50000US dollars out of China. So the PRC allowed the Chinese to get rich with the condition the riches go back to the Chinese economy not to buy Australian properties or to gamble millions in Australian casinos.

... err ... illegally. As far as the CCP is concerned, even though they may have earnt it honestly, by moving it offshore they've stolen it from the state. What's so warped about my understanding of it? I think it's correct. I don't agree with people being curtailed in that way; but, that's China's law and its people are bound by it, I'm afraid. Unless they decide to overturn the CCP, that is! Yeah, right! That'd be the day ... when the Chinese people became un-brainwashed enough to think they could do without a CCP control mechanism.

On the surface this seems unsavory having Australians act as agents for the CCP. Let's hold our nose for a minute and think about it. 1) The money leaving China was earned legally or illegally however it was illegal to take the money out of China. Those who are taking millions out of China probably have connections to the CCP that allowed them to earn it in the first place and are potentially people of influence. Chinese put up with the CCP because generally their life has improved over the years and greed is their religion. The CCP negatively impacting their pocketbooks and taking away fake freedoms may be the fastest way to political change. 2) The money may be from corrupt CCP officials. Taking away the money incentive to be a part of an authoritarian system will further erode CCP support. Frankly I'm surprised anyone in the CCP is pushing for money to be returned since I think they are all corrupt and are getting their money out too. 3) If I owned a $10 M property in Australia I'd gladly sell it to Chinese citizens for $15M. I'd also gladly cooperate with Chinese government to help pursue the buyers after notifying them of the transaction. In order to claw back the money the property would need to be sold. I'd gladly buy it back for $10M and sell it again to Chinese citizens for $15M. This helps balance out whatever shenanigans China is doing to create trade imbalances.

K L The foundation of the FBI’s international program is the International Operations Division and the legal attaché, or “legat,” each of whom is the Director’s personal representative in the foreign country in which he/she resides or for which he/she has regional responsibilities. FBI personnel abroad serve under the authority of the Department of State, chief of mission at United States embassies, at the pleasure of ambassadors and host country governments. Their core mission is to establish and maintain liaison with principal law enforcement and security services in designated foreign countries. This liaison enables the FBI to effectively and expeditiously conduct its responsibilities in combating international terrorism, organized crime, cyber crime, and general criminal matters. In particular, legat liaison activities are essential to the successful fulfillment overseas of the FBI’s lead federal law enforcement mission to prevent terrorist attacks against citizens and interests of the United States. Liaison is carried out in accordance with executive orders, statutes, treaties, Attorney General Guidelines, FBI policies, and interagency agreements. The legal attaché program provides for a prompt and continuous exchange of information with foreign law enforcement and security agencies and coordination with U.S. federal law enforcement agencies that have jurisdiction over the matters under investigation. Our foreign-based personnel also assist foreign agencies with requests for investigative assistance in the U.S. to encourage reciprocal assistance in counterterrorism, criminal, and other investigative matters.

What exactly constitutes as 'dirty / hot money' according to Chinese authorities though? To us, in the West, the connotation is that the money has been acquired and is being processed according to nefarious or criminal protocols. no problem whatsoever with returning both moneys and unequivocally and internationally identified as criminal individuals back to China, but legit people funnelling their hard-earned legally earned cash off -shore to evade an authoritarian-driven future and prepare for a potential defection to a democratic nation...? Hard call. Would hate to be the bounty hunters doing the Devil's dirty work on this one!
