Its nothing new for “China’s elite.”

China is a state-run economy, with everything controlled by government, bureaucracy, and politics. Therefore, to succeed in business, you must always have government and political connections. That means both you and your contacts are always exposed in the political arena. Make a false move, and there is someone else ready to chop your head off.

Its part of the reason they all want US Passports and have homes here.
