The company is Hutchinson and it is more than 100 years old. Does Hutchinson sound Chinese to you? It is a Hong Kong Company. Maybe Rubio will claimed HSBC and Chartered Bank are Chinese too. LOL

You can't find anyone more dumb. There is a reason why no one would co-sponsor his bill. And if you think Blinken is bad...

@ The company in question is Hutchinson. Please google it. It was established in 1853 and is a French Company. Its main holdingd of real estate is in HK, It also owned restaurants, phone company etc. HQ is in Paris. Does Hutchinson sound Chinese to you. It also has port in US, UK and EU

@JohnByrnes-x7v HSBC, Chartered, Hutchinson are all formed before PRC even existed. HSBC and Chartered are British and Hutchinson France. The only thing that is Hong Kong/Chinese is their money are mostly in Hong Kong. HSBC and Chartered also priny the money in HK. To say these companies are funded by China is laughable. Other than their location they are really European company with European share holder BRW Hutchinson also owns the Oakland port.

@sasa-c4k1q You are not telling to whoe story. The equipment was supposed to be unloaded to a non-Hutchinson port. However the ship trepass into Hutchinson by 50 meters. Would you allow someone to park infront of your garage?

@diemes5463 Hutchinson was a British Hong Kong Company. Since China took over HK it is now " Chinese". This company also owns the Oakland port. Hutchinson is a huge company that own real estate, telecom nad just about everything. It doesnot have the fore sight of building a dual use facility before China took over. Imagine the owner told his people we need to build it into a dual use facility so one day when China took over, China can force us to use it against US, Does that make sense to you? BTW they own ports across 24 countries including UK and EU.

@JohnByrnes-x7v I just did it for him. Please read my post. BTW does Hutchinson sound Chinese to you? It is a Hong Kong company not Chinese. Rubio is lying.

@sasa-c4k1q The problem is they have the right. They paid for the zone. Poland should just compensate them. Hutchinson was established in 1857 before the Opium war. They were a British company before ROC took over China. They are also a global fortune 500 comapny. Their responsibility is to their share holders. I do not think they want to be in geopolitic. They own ports in US, UK and EU. And the person that manage the port is Polish I believe. Most of the investment were before China took over. THeir former CEO was knighted by the Queen. It is hard to believe it is a front. They are way too rich to get involved.

@RVPilot-d7g That is because it is not true.

@kevinprzy4539 I have not that one. Please tell me. I posted a response, Hutchinson is NOT a Chinese company it is a Hong Kong Company. It was established before CCP was established.

His testimony is full of misinformation.

@ How so please explain? How is HK not independent? Do they no longer have a legilation? Are they under the Chinese law now? Why do they still have foreigners on the supreme court? AFAIK they still have elections. The Taiwanese presidential candidates have to be interviewed by US NSC. So are they independent?

@ 50m is half the football field. So I looked it up. The largest cargo ship are 61.5k, So they have most of the ship in the other guy's zone. No I wouldn.t take that either.

@carsonianthegreat4672 Have Hutchinson, HSBC. Chartered been integrated into China? And how is HK integrated into China? are they using Chinese law or British Common Law? Why is HSBC, A British company still printing HK currency? I did a quick google and get opposite result. Do you have better source? Back to the Canal I did some research. There are 4 major ports on the Canal. Hutchinson owns two, US and Taiwan own the other two. These are facts. I hope you give me facts instead of projection

@bluemarlin8138 He is either lying or ignorant, Hutchinson is a Hong Kong Companies that operated the port BEFORE HK return to China. They also owned the Oakland port. It WAS a British company and a Chinese company now. It is not a Chinese Chinese company.

@NathanMills1 And yes China has colonize the moon. You just don;t know about it.
2
LOL He almost gave away for free all American IP. Competent? NOT
2
@arturiuspendragon6849 Yup I found out later. I achnowledge my mistake. But CK did not merge with Hutchinson until 2015. So it was British that own those ports.
2
@xavierdaume2757 Is giving away ALL US IP for free smart? Well he is your man.
1
@ He once sponsored a bill so Huawei cannot collect royalty from Verizon by disallowing ALL foreign company. It was shut doen quickly. Because it would set up a precedent that all foreign companies can use US IP for free especially pharmaceutical. So tell me he is smart in doing this bill.

@tlanimass952 Hitchinson is a Global 500 compny . It was founded in 1857 before the opium war. China wanted to please the company by giving them prime real estate in BJ to develop. You can always speculate but you don't have simple fact or logic. . Is your opinion HSBC is also controlled by China too? HSBC is Hong Kong Shanghai Bank. LOL

@ Well I am not arguing I am correcting your misinformation. No one so far can answer how is China taking over HK. You don't know either so stop propagating misinformation. BTW I was there during the riot so I know the truth.

@wendyrbielski2759 Yes it is. One country two systems

@arturiuspendragon6849 I am still trying to figure out the situation tho, I don't trust Rubio. I wish Panama can come out and tell us what the deal is. I get some bit and pieces from Panamarian on this board.
1
@TBAYMenace Actually I have done some research and talk with Panamarian since then Who owns and controlled the company is irrelevant. There are more than 16 ports in Panama. 5 operated in the Canal. The ports are owned by the Panama, the ports are run by concession with a 25 years lease, Of the 4 ports 2 are run by Hutchinson, one evergreen (Taiwan) , 1 by Carix (US). So Rubio is lying. China does not have the capability to close the Canal. The ports are used for loading and unloaoding cargo. The fee is $12 per conyainer.

@stefthorman8548 Panama. There are 5 ports next to the canal. The major 4 ports are owned by Panama but concession is leased in a 25 years term. HongKong owned 2 of them, US 1 and Taiwan 1. Hutchinson was British until 2015 merger with CK. China do own a port by Landbridge but is not close to the canal. There are 16 ports in Panama.
