【新唐人2011年11月22日讯】11月18号,美国众议院提出,将调查“华为”和“中兴”等中国电讯企业在美国扩张业务的过程中,是否给美国国家安全带来威胁。
美国众议院情报委员会上星期四表示,将调查中国科技公司在美国发展是否会给中共政府提供更多机会进行电子间谍活动,甚至危害到美国的电信基础设施,并且从美国公司盗窃价值数百万美元的受知识产权保护的机密。
再次被众议院情报委员会“锁定”的“华为技术有限公司”是全球第二大电讯设备制造商,2001年在美国德克萨斯州设立美国总部,目前在美国有1500名雇员。“华为”的创始人任正非曾在中共军方任职,从事军事科技研发,这使得美国国会议员们担心“华为”有中共军方背景。
前中共情报官李凤智披露,中共情报工作的重要途径,就是利用驻目标国的一些机构、团体来做情报工作。
李凤智:“以个人名义在目标国,在美国成立的公司,或者一些私人性质的大型的企业的驻外分公司,还有一些像以中共政府为背景的。这里边都可以安插进工作人员。然后寻找适当的时机,来获取或重要,或不太重要的,或者大,或者小的各式各样的情报,当然也包括军机情报。”
美国政府近来加强对中共经济间谍问题的关注,11月初,美国情报官员就在一份报告中说,中国是世界上最活跃的从事经济间谍活动国家,并指责中国利用网络窃取敏感信息。其中,网络窃密主要锁定医药、信息科技、国防设备与先进材料等产业。
美国南卡罗来纳大学艾肯商学院教授谢田:“我想中国是否在获取其他国家,西方国家,尤其是美国欧洲这些先进的技术啊,已经是路人皆知的事情了。为什么我们说中国是一个仿冒大国、盗版大国、剽窃的大国呢?这是因为实际上它就是用非法获取的技术,或者抄袭的技术呢,来仿照或复制其他国家有品牌的,或者有专利权的产品。”
对于美国参议院的调查,中共外交部发言人刘为民上星期五在北京对记者说,希望美方不要将经济合作“政治化”。但谢田教授认为,中共盗取美国技术是既定的国策,是中共本身把经济“政治化”。
美国南卡罗来纳大学艾肯商学院教授谢田:“实际上正在盗取美国一些技术的呢,大部分通过中共军方的企业。尤其通过互联网盗取的话呢,都是有军方背景的公司和企业在操作在执行着。拿到了这个技术以后呢,真正受益的也是中共军方的企业。实际上是中国国有企业。这本身就是一个政府的行为。实际上中共这个盗窃本身是一个既定的国策,所以就是完完全全政治化的东西。那它现在指责西方国家不要把经济‘政治化’,这个确实是蛮滑稽的。”
美国密歇根州共和党众议员、“情报委员会”主席罗杰斯(Mike Rogers)表示,委员会已经进行了初步调查,包括简要汇报情况和约谈情报官员。“情报委员会”还将调查中国企业向美国电信系统提供元件的方式,及这类活动可能带来的安全威胁。

Chinese Telecommunications Expansion Questioned
On November 18, the U.S. House of Representatives
Investigated Chinese telecommunication companies such as Huawei and ZTE,
to find out if they pose a security threat to the United States,
due to their close ties with the Chinese regime.
U.S. House Intelligence Committee (HIC) last Thursday
decided to investigate Chinese science and
technology companies in the United States to see if they offer
the Chinese regime an opportunity for
electronic espionage into U.S. affairs or are harmful to
the United States’ telecom infrastructure,
which could result in the theft of millions of dollars worth of
confidential intellectual property from U.S companies.

Upon learning that the Governor of Calif. was coming to visit,
Huawei Tech. Co. Ltd, is the world’s second largest telecom
equipment manufacturer, which again came under investigation by the U.S. HIC.
Headquarter in Texas, Huawai began its operations in 2001.
They currently have 1,500 employees.
Huawai’s founder, Ren Zhengfei, worked
for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) military and studied military technology development.
His CCP military background is worrisome to U.S. Senators.
Former CCP intelligence officer, Li Fengzhi,
exposed the fact that
the CCP’s main way to gather intelligence is using a
target country’s organizations to achieve their purposes.
Li Fengzhi: “To register a company in a target country,
in this case, the United States, one can register using an individual’s name,
or branch of private enterprises overseas,
or companies with Chinese Regime background.
The CCP can send their staffs to work in these companies.
Later, these companies look for and find opportunities to
collect intelligence data, including military related data.”
The U.S. government recently raised economic espionage
concerns as it relates to Chinese companies.
In early November, U.S. intelligent officials said in a report
that China is engaged in more economic espionage, than any other country in the world.
They accused China of using the Internet
to steal sensitive information, including medical,
information technology, defence equipment,
and advanced materials.
Xie Tian, a professor at the Aiken School of Business
at the University of South Carolina: “I think everyone knows
that China has being collecting other countries’ technology
including Western countries’ technology,
especially the U.S. and European countries’ advanced
technologies.
Why do we call China a counterfeit country,
a copyright infringement country, and a plagiarized country?
Because it is a fact that China uses illegal and
stolen technology, to copy other countries’ existing products.”
In response, foreign ministry spokesman, Liu Weimin,
told a Beijing reporter that he was hoping
that the United States would avoid ‘politicizing’ the economic
co-operation between the United States and China.
However, Xie Tian believes that the fact that the CCP steals
U.S technology is definitely a national strategy, on China’s part.
It is China that actually ‘politicizes’ the economic co-operation
between the two countries.”
Professor Xie Tian, from the Aiken School of Business
at the University of South Carolina: “In fact,
some U.S. technology is stolen mostly through
the CCP’s military enterprises.
In particular, if it was stolen through the Internet,
there are enterprises and companies in operation with a CCP military background.
After getting the technology, the real beneficiaries
are the CCP military’s enterprises.
They are actually Chinese state-owned enterprises.
These are the behaviors of the Chinese Regime.
In fact, this theft by the CCP itself, is an established national policy.
So it is something completely politicized.
However, the CCP is now telling Western countries
not to ‘politicize’ their economic ties with China. This is really quite funny."
Mike Rogers, U.S. Representative from Michigan and
Chairman of the Intelligence Committee, said that
the Commission has conducted a preliminary investigation,
including a brief report on the situation
and has conducted interviews with intelligence officials.
The Intelligence Committee will also investigate the ways
that Chinese enterprises provide components to
U.S. telecommunications systems, and the security threats
that such activities could bring.
