Forget Dubai-based DP World poised to run commercial operations in six leading American ports, it’s the players in the chess game called Port Security that Congress members should be losing the most sleep over.
While it’s true that port security falls under the jurisdiction of Coast Guard and U.S. customs officials, agents of both entities will need a program just to recognize all the players.
Port Security International (PSI) is an international partner’s network composed of an array of financial, strategic, technological and in-country port industry related companies.
PSI has an alliance with the China-based Nuctech, a company that "possesses the largest manufacture base of Linear Accelerator X-ray inspection machines to inspect containers at ports in the world." (www.secureports.com/partner.htm).
Boasts PSI of partner Nuctech: "As a result of its valuable contribution in the security inspection application, Nuctech has earned its indisputable reputation within the cargo inspection industry."
Chief Executive Officer of the 700-employee strong Nuctech is Hu Haifeng. That’s Hu Haifeng, the son of current China President Hu Jintao. It should surprise no one that Hu Haifeng is landing lucrative contracts in China.
At a 2005 meeting on port security in Dubai, Nuctech said that they hope to expand their foothold in the mid-east. (www.ameinfo.com/58032.html).
Airport, Port & Terminal Security 2006 will be held from April 3-4 at the Grand Hyatt Dubai.
"PSI has a strategic alliance with Stonebridge International LLC, a global business strategy firm based in Washington, DC that helps U.S. and multinational companies shape and execute strategies to solve problems and seize business opportunities worldwide." (Security Ports International 2004).

"Hu Haifeng. That’s Hu Haifeng, the son of current China President Hu Jintao. "
While it is no surprise that Hu Jintoa's son is getting sweetheart deals on a gold platter it is very interesting that Judi McLeod has rooted out this information.
This is some serious drill down reporting from an little known Canadian news magazine.
She's worth keeping an eye on.
Berger is a greater security risk.
Which is why we won't hear this story reported in the MSM.
So Madeline Halfbright is out shilling for the Sheiks in the UAE while stuff-it-in-his-shorts Berger is tristing with the leadership of Communist China. Why are we not surprised?
If I stole a candy bar from WalMart in July of 2004 I would still be on probation after serving 90 days for larceny.
Sandy Berger steals sensitive documents in July of 2004 and it is whitewashed like a "non-person" in the former Soviet Union.
Something stinks here real bad.
This is the first I've heard of it.
see my tagline
Slick n Bernie sell 'gyros' to Chicoms, Ron Brown OKs after the fact, Riady gets USA 'good coal' put 'off limits' by Ol' Slick.....there is, was, no end to THE CLINTON CURSE!
I have to agree. This really stinks. This is probably related material that he stole from the National Archives.
The republicans never took advantage of the Berger situation so I somehow imagine they were aware of the documents.

Sandy Berger must be good, if he is associated with the Ports deal. It is wrong to question anything about it.

Congressional Hearings on Portgate:
Committee Chairman: "Thank you Mr. Berger on your testimony today,...and now moving on....wait a second...where'd my legal pad go......HEY! STOP THAT FAT GUY WITH THE YELLOW PAGES HANGING OUT OF HIS *SS!!"
O M G!
It's a Culture of Corruption!!!
How many ways can you say conflict of interest?
David Sanborn, who runs DP Worlds European and Latin American operations, and was an executive for CSX, was picked by President Bush to head the US Maritime Administration.
This is an inside deal, to enrich those that are in a position to influence events, and to profit from them. Throw in Sandy Berger, lobbyists Bob Dole and Madeline Halfbright, and you have an idea how corrupt the system has become.
This raises some very serious questions, how deep is the corruption? It drives me berserk, when a post with this much meat within it, is left alone, while people talk of Shakespeares death, and stealth sharks.
"It drives me berserk"
Didn't Tom Laughlin say that right before he put his fist in that guys face in "Billy Jack"?
Look, lets end this. Get ahold of a Congressman or Senator,...have them introduce a law that states that you cannot receive ANY money, bonus, salary, stipend, cup of friggin' coffee, from a foreign nation or Foreign-owned company for TEN YEARS after leaving federal service, either elected, appointed. Its truly pathetic and brings back the kooky notion (or used to be kooky) of a massive global/trilateral/new world order/skull&bones/star chamber/matrix/"Risk" that is running the show, and the rest of us are goldfish hanging out with the scuba man and treasure chest bottom-feeding for tetra flakes.
