Xijun Ni and colleagues describe the fossil as Teilhardina asiatica, a new species of a genus first recognized from Belgium, in the Jan. 1, 2004, issue of Nature. At 28 grams, T. asiatica is smaller than any modern primate, and its size and sharp tooth cusps indicate that it was an insect-eater.

That sounds for all the world like a MONKEY, just like every "hominid" skeleton they've come up with so far except for the neanderthal, which was basically just an ice-age democrat.

Only if you consider something outwardly similar to a shrew, or some other small insectivore, "for all the world like a monkey". More probably, in fact almost certainly, you just don't know what you're typing about.
