Aug. 29, 2019 – Exactly eight (8) years ago, this photo of a not-so-famous man crossing the zebra walk outside Abbey Road Studios was posted on Facebook. We went to the U.K. to attend the WAIS conference at Torquay and offer our prayers at St. George Chapel in Windsor Castle for:
1. the eternal repose of my late wife Elena who passed away on Dec. 10, 2010;
2. seek the recovery and administration of our ancestral land the Philippines under the protection dominion of HM Queen Elizabeth II .
Fast forward to 20 May 2017. A shocking news came out: Starting in late December 2010, about two weeks after my wife died, the execution or imprisonment of C.I.A.’s sources in China began. And it didn’t stop until the end of 2012 .
Excerpt: “All told, the Chinese killed or imprisoned 18 to 20 of the C.I.A.’s sources in China, according to two former senior American officials, effectively unraveling a network that had taken years to build.
WASHINGTON — The Chinese government systematically dismantled C.I.A. spying operations in the country starting in 2010 (final weeks of Dec. 2010), killing or imprisoning more than a dozen sources over two years and crippling intelligence gathering there for years afterward.
But there was no disagreement about the damage. ^From the final weeks of 2010 through the end of 2012^ , according to former American officials, the Chinese killed at least a dozen of the C.I.A.’s sources. According to three of the officials, one was shot in front of his colleagues in the courtyard of a government building — a message to others who might have been working for the C.I.A.
But by the end of the year (2010), the flow of information began to dry up. By early 2011, senior agency officers realized they had a problem: Assets in China, one of their most precious resources, were disappearing.

On Fri. May 18, 2018 upon arraignment, Jerry Chun Shing Lee, pleaded not guilty but his trial was postponed for one year. Below is a compilation of five (5) U.S. government workers who were suspected or convicted of spying for China.
Ex-CIA officer Jerry Lee pleads not guilty, will wait one year for trial
Hong Kong-born Lee, suspected of being at the centre of one of the largest US intelligence breaches in decades, appears in a Virginia court.

On Wed. May 1, 2019 J Chun Shing Lee admitted spying for China. His sentencing was scheduled for Aug. 23, 2019. However, as of Aug. 30, 2019 there have been no further news about his sentence. Candace Claiborne and Kevin Patrick Mallory were both sentenced while Ron Rockwell Hansen will be sentenced on Sept. 24, 2019.
Excerpt: “Lee is one of three former intelligence officers accused of spying for China in separate cases over the past two years.
Former CIA and Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) officer Kevin Mallory was found guilty at a trial last year June 8, 2018. His sentencing is scheduled for later this month.
Former DIA officer Ron Rockwell Hansen pleaded guilty in March.
China is alleged to have given Hong Kong-born Lee a cash gift of US$100,000 and promised it would “take care of him for life”, according to the indictment against him.
While Lee’s contact with MSS agents started shortly before a reported death or imprisonment of 18 to 20 informants the US government had in China, neither Wednesday’s (May 1, 2019) hearing nor case documents connect Lee to the loss of these intelligence sources.
The New York Times reported in (May 20) 2017 that the first signs of trouble that led to the dismantling of the US spy network in China surfaced in (Dec.) 2010. (Elena died on Dec. 10, 2010) The FBI and the CIA then opened a joint investigation.
In court Wednesday, prosecutor Neil Hammerstrom said that when Lee left the CIA in 2007, he got a job in Hong Kong with a large tobacco company but was fired in 2009 and stopped receiving income in 2010.
It was that year when Lee met with Chinese intelligence officers who promised to take care of him for life financially if he cooperated. They also promised an immediate cash gift of $100,000, investigators said.

Let’s go back to the Philippines at the end of the Marcos era.
On March 25 1986, a month after the ouster of strongman F.E. Marcos Cory Aquino declared a revolutionary government and abolished the legislative branch of the government.

Philippines Seeks Ties With China**

PEKING — Salvador Laurel, (the son of Jose P. Laurel the president of the Japanese-sponsored government during the Japanese occupation in World War II) vice president and foreign minister of the Philippines, praised China as a model for developing countries Sunday.
“We come to you not only in friendship but we come to you to learn,” Laurel said on the first day of his official visit here, the first visit to China by a top Filipino official since President Corazon Aquino took power in February.
Laurel said in a banquet speech that the Aquino government embarking on a massive economic program for development and growth and that China’s urban land reform programs were a “model in national development for countries like the Philippines” trying to improve their peoples’ standard of living.

Note that in 1986, the Philippine foreign affairs secretary considered CHINA A DEVELOPING COUNTRY!

On April 15, 1988 Cory Aquino met with Chinese leaders. In this state visit, she claimed China as her ancestral land and it is believed it was on this meeting that Cory Aquino committed to the removal of US military presence in the Philippines and the region to facilitate China’s takeover of the Spratlys.
On Dec. 28, 1991 Cory Aquino ORDERED the U.S. military out of the Philippines. Once again only 13 individuals (12 hard core left leaning, anti-American senators plus false flag president Cory Aquino) decided for some 62 million Filipinos as to whether or not US military bases in the former US territory should be closed. Cory Aquino, Washington DC’s icon of democracy should have asked the Filipino people in a referendum. But Cory Aquino was actually working for China’s interests.
Since 1954 US and Philippine Armed Forces have been conducting joint military exercises and sometimes even live fire drills. But with the closure of the US military bases, Clark AFB and US Naval Base in Subic, on April 1, 1995 the Chinese took possession of the Mischief Reefs.

CORY AQUINO and her brother JOSE “PEPING” COJUANGCO are the genuine heroes of the People’s Republic of CHINA. Like Manny Pacquiao’s left and right fists, the sister and brother team practically pulverized and battered the helpless Washington DC and handed to CHINA, the precious Philippines, a former US Territory bought twice with GI blood and $20 million cash in 1898.
Photo: Sometime in 2014 this photo of Jose “Peping” Cojuangco the brother of former Philippine president Corazon Aquino and uncle of then Phil. president Benigno Aquino III showed up online.

At 25:32 PRESIDENT OBAMA: “Well, let me repeat what I said earlier. I think that it is good for the region and good for the world if China is successfully developing, if China is lifting more of its people out of poverty. There are a lot of people in China, and the more they’re able to develop and provide basic needs for their people and work cooperatively with other countries in the region, that’s only going to strengthen the region — that’s not going to weaken it.“
(Here Pres. Obama has emphasized that the development of China is the USA’s priority. What did the Republicans say? Nothing. Silence is consent. BM)

On Jan. 25, 2015 an anti-terror operation against two on FBI’s most wanted list was botched under the micro management of Aquino III resulting in the massacre of 44 US trained SAF Police officers. It became Aquino III’s justification to cancel the planned return of US Armed Forces in its former military bases in the Philippines.
On Aug. 8, 2018 seven (7) years after the Zebra crossing on Abbey Road photo was taken. The Federalist published the story alleging that “Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s ties to China go way deeper than an alleged office spy.” The article claims Feinstein has been in close contact with the Chinese since 1978 when she was the mayor of San Francisco.
