A prominent Chinese billionaire has been sentenced to 18 years in prison, the latest in a string of punishments against outspoken corporate bosses.
Sun Dawu runs one of the country's largest private agricultural businesses in the northern province of Hebei.
Sun, 67, has in the past spoken out about human rights and politically sensitive topics.
He was found guilty of "picking quarrels and provoking trouble"-a charge often used against activists.
Other charges against him include illegally occupying farmland, assembling a crowd to attack state agencies and obstructing government workers from performing their duties. He was also fined 3.11 million yuan ($478,697; &343,227)...

When will the Chinese people rise up and throw off their oppressors?
He should have moved to Taiwan, Malasia or South Korea.
China is willing to waste the talents of a Billionaire because of private activites he’s done.
He is in his sixties, which is not really old.
He could help their economy grow.
But they the Red Chinese, would rather be ‘correct’ than profitable.
18 years for “picking quarrels and provoking trouble”? I don’t mean to pick any quarrels or provoke any trouble but damn that’s a repressive regime.
There’s some sort of war going on with China right now but it seems like a propaganda one to cut into China’s market share by talking about persecution of Muslims in western China for example.
I say this every time but these guys are d-. You have a billion, you know the chicoms will take you out on a whim, and yet you continue to live in China. Not too bright.
China is no paradise - it a s- hole country.
Why do supposedly free nations like Australia and Canada want to imitate China with their COVID lockdowns?
With Sun Dawn now out of the way, Donald Trump cannot be far behind...
He will be disappeared before 2024...
Along with about 5-million other disrupters...
The real purge to get the remaining 85-million will occur during the 2nd, 3rd, & 4th terms of our beloved communist presidents...
I remember the time when Red Dawn was thought to be a fantasy...
Where is Ronald Reagan when we really need him?
Where are T & T when we need them?
That is something to think about what is being said about this man by the Chicoms is being said about Donald Trump and his supporters in the USA.
Speaking of Billionaires, Where is Jack Ma of Alibaba fame?
The company’s still there, but the founder is nowhere seen!
that’s nuttin- just watch how many years the ‘outspoken’ peaceful protestor Trump supporters get here is the good ole USA
Hard to believe he couldn’t bribe his was out of it ...man, that’s some REAL Communism there!
