The Clintons and the Recent Lion Air Crash Source Post on QRV It was posted on Bloomberg Twitter that 10 members of the Indonesian State Audit Agency, known as BPK, were on board Lion Air's JT610. 20 employees from the Finance Ministry. There has been a recent investigation into the mega city project called “the Shenzhen of Indonesia”. A spate of illegal payments and arrests involving developer Lippo Group has cast doubts over the future of the US$21 billion Meikarta megacity project Detectives this week arrested staff and raided the homes and offices of senior executives from Lippo Group, the Indonesian conglomerate behind Meikarta. 12 locations were raided, including the home of James Riady who is the deputy chairman of Lippo and son of the conglomerate’s founder Mochtar Riady. So far, documents related to licensing by Lippo to the district government, financial records, and electronic evidence such as computers have been confiscated. The investigation continues. This week Sindoro was named publicly as a suspect after two Lippo consultants and a staff member allegedly paid the bribes. What makes this interesting is that Lippo, Riady and Sindoro were involved in another corruption case involving the Clintons. Hillary Clinton, Treason, and the Chinese Communist Lippo Group James Raidy was a was a major campaign contributor to the Democratic Party. In 1998, the United States Senate conducted an investigation of the finance scandal of the 1996 U.S. presidential campaign. James Riady was indicted and pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations by himself and his corporation. He was ordered to pay an 8.6 million U.S. dollar fine for contributing foreign funds to the Democratic Party, the largest fine ever levied in a campaign finance case. In 2008, Riady’s close business associate Billy Sindoro, an executive of Riady’s Jakarta-based First Media, was filmed handing bribes to officials of Indonesia’s anti-monopoly agency.  The purpose of the contributions was to obtain various benefits from various campaign committees and candidates for Lippo Group and LippoBank, including: access, meetings, and time with politicians, elected officials, and other high-level government officials.  Testimony before Sen. Fred Thompson’s committee indicated that the Lippo Group is in fact a joint venture of China Resources, a trading and holding company “wholly owned” by the Chinese communist government and used as a front for Chinese espionage operations. China Resources investments in Lippo grew during the course of the Clinton administration, coinciding with illegal six-figure Lippo contributions to Clinton’s cash machine. These contributions seem to not only have bought Lippo employee John Huang a job in the Commerce Department, but special consideration for Lippo business interests at the highest level of the Clinton administration. Last year, however, the Indonesian mogul finally made it to Arkansas. He traveled there during the first of two previously unreported trips he made in 2009 to the United States. He was allowed in only after receiving a waiver from a rule that forbids entry to foreigners guilty of “a crime involving moral turpitude,” a term that government lawyers generally interpret to include fraud. Riady’s return to the United States poses a prickly question for Hillary Clinton’s State Department: How and why did a foreign billionaire stained by Clinton-era scandals get a U.S. visa after being kept out for so long under the Bush administration?“ Curious how much Chinese Communist money is running Hillary Clinton’s campaign for President? Just go back and look at Bill Clinton’s campaign.
