A Chinese spy has defected to Australia with a trove of intelligence on Chinas political interference operations in Hong Kong, Taiwan and elsewhere, according to media reports.
The Nine network newspapers said the defector, named as Wang William Liqiang, had given Australias counter-espionage agency the identities of Chinas senior military intelligence officers in Hong Kong and provided details of how they funded and conducted operations in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Australia.
Wang said he was personally involved in infiltration and disruption operations in all three territories, according to the report, published in Nines The Age and Sydney Morning Herald newspapers.
Now, apply this same m/o here in the US where our corporations kowtow to Beijing's every whim, tech companies mass-censor dissident (conservative) voices and our media conglomerates actively work to undermine our president while he fights a trade war. Seem familiar?
why would australia or this man want this published in the news?
The ChiComs will kill and imprison his family....Though I hope not.
Agreed.
Should have kept this quiet.
The truth will set you free. It may start a war first but some things are necessary. This guy now living in Moscow. We’re still here and he’s homesick. Can’t even remember his name.
I don’t trust any of them
Watch for this to pop up somehow in the impeachment kangaroo court here in the US.
