#1 I used to work for a Singapore bank. Offshore banking is big business there, but there are no 'small' local banks. All the small banks are foreign banks (branch operations).

If it is a local bank it's OCBC.

#2 shut em off and cut financial ties to any bank, financial center or company doing business with them. Time to review our trade, military cooperation, and commerce agreements with Singapore

#3 We seem to know where the printing pressis, it's in the headlines, so why does it, and the surrounding buildings still exist?
Counterfiting, especialy on a Nation scale is surely an act of war.

#4 Send China the bill for all the counterfeit frogskins. If they reneg, tell them to back off while we bomb the crap outta North Korea. China has bred up this miscreant, either they put paid to its continued misconduct or they sit still while we bounce some rubble in their back yard. No alternatives.

#5 PS: The Swiss need to be asked some very hard and pointed questions about why exceptionally advanced currency-grade printing presses were released onto the open market without concrete end-user information.
