Perhaps Hillary would rather the deal go to the company from Singapore. Hmmm. isn't Elaine Kanchanalak from Singapore? Or was that Lippo Group?
Odd that everyone is shrieking now over a deal that was started over a year ago and was about finalized last October. Reminds me of the Cartoon Riots.
If this is a big issue than the shrieking should have started when the bidding got down to two overseas companies, not now that the deal is done. Back then would have been the time to move to ensure a US firm got the job, and I cannot believe that Congress and State and Commerce didn't know what was going down.
Could it be, as I hinted above, that the rabble is being roused to switch the contract winner to a different foreign firm?

My bad, Lippo is from Indonesia and it's Pauline Kanchanalak, not Elaine. She has ties to Singapore businesses but was born in Thailand.
