The US Justice Department on Tuesday charged a Chinese engineer and his partner with “economic espionage” for allegedly stealing technology from General Electric.
It was a “textbook example of the Chinese government’s strategy to rob American companies of their intellectual property,” John Demers, head of the Justice Department’s National Security Division, said in a statement.
The government also charged Xiaoqing Zheng, 56, of Niskayuna, New York, and Zhaoxi Zhang, 47, of Liaoning Province, China, with stealing GE’s trade secrets including designs for gas and steam turbine technology.
Zheng, an engineer at GE Power & Water in Schenectady, New York, “exploited his access to GE’s files by stealing multiple electronic files, including proprietary files involving design models,” and emailing them to Zhang in China, according to the statement.
“We will not stand idly by while the world’s second-largest economy engages in state-sponsored theft,” Demers said.
The incident comes as American and Chinese officials say they are nearing the end of negotiations on a new trade deal, which Washington has said will place heavy emphasis on the enforcement of rules, particularly those protecting intellectual property.
Before the charges were announced, White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said, “The degree of unfair and unlawful trading practices engaged in by China for decades has to stop. It has to stop.”
He added that he is “cautiously optimistic” about a deal but stressed “it has to be enforceable.”

Tuve un combi de la marca Indesit con sistema no frost en todo el aparato (frigorifico y congelador) al final se me terminó estropeando salió muy malo, pero era un regalo…. y cuando fui a comprar uno nuevo elegí Liebherr, por garantia de calidad, y lo elegí solo con nofrost en la parte del congelador, ya que con el otro me habia dado cuenta que las verduras me las resecaba y terminaban arrugandose y ahora con este genial, las verduras me aguantan muchiiisimo.

Wonderful site. Plenty of helpful info here. I am sending it to a few buddies ans also sharing in delicious. And of course, thanks in your effort!
Wow, this piece of writing is fastidious, my younger sister is analyzing these
kinds of things, thus I am going to inform her.
Every weekend i used to pay a quick visit this web page, because i want enjoyment, for the reason that this this
web page conations truly fastidious funny data too.
With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism
or copyright infringement? My site has a
lot of unique content I’ve either authored myself
or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping
it up all over the internet without my permission. Do you know any solutions to help stop content from being ripped off?
I’d definitely appreciate it.
Really enjoyed this blog article.Really thank you! Cool.
Greetings, There’s no doubt that your website could be
having internet browser compatibility issues. When I look at your site
in Safari, it looks fine however, when opening in IE, it’s got some
overlapping issues. I merely wanted to provide you with a
quick heads up! Apart from that, fantastic blog!
Everything published was actually very logical.
But, think on this, suppose you added a little content?
I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your website,
but what if you added something that makes people want more?
I mean US charges Chinese engineer with espionage – Asia Times is
a little vanilla. You could glance at Yahoo’s home page
and watch how they create article headlines to grab people to click.
You might add a related video or a related pic
or two to get people excited about everything’ve got to say.
In my opinion, it might make your posts a little livelier.
I was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your website?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a
little more in the way of content so people could connect
with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having
1 or two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?
The article is really nice and informative, bookmarked this page. Really glad to read this, keep sharing the amazing articles with us.
