| China dissatisfied with US high-tech exports plan |
| 2006-06-27 |
| New US proposals to tighten controls on the export of high technology goods to China are due to be published in coming days, but the latest draft has already drawn a negative response from Beijing and US industry, trade experts said on Monday. A final draft of the planned restrictions, drawn up and reworked over the past two years by the US commerce department’s bureau of industry and security, was presented to China’s ministry of commerce last Friday. A trade insider said Beijing described the proposals as “disappointing”. The proposal is expected to be published soon in the Federal Register for a 120-day period for public comment. US industry is expected to mount a strong campaign in protest, arguing that foreign competitors are not bound by the same restrictions on transfer of civilian technology. |

| #6 They're so goddamned smart, let them make their own high tech goodies. They do. They also make most of ours. Yes, that's a problem. |

| #5 Lemme see. The PRC is pissed off that we are smarter, and better able to produce hi-tech products and services now, and in the near future. And that have tightened the screws on their ability to buy it legally (and steal it). Sounds like a bunch of losers whining, to me. Maybe they can get Jesse Jackson to take up the cause as a diversity issue? |

| #4 The usual one-way trading street with China. Time for someone to tell them to suck it up and stop whineing. Maybe we need to appoint John Bolton as ambassador to China. I can see the fireworks already. |
