Alibaba, the Chinese e-commerce conglomerate that made the biggest IPO in U.S. history last September, had over $30 billion wiped from its market capitalization in two days ending yesterday. That was just after it got into a rare public brawl with a Chinese regulator, an apparent signal that its political fortunes have shifted decisively under the Xi Jinping administration.
Jiang Zemin’s days are numbered. It is only a question of when, not if, the former head of the Chinese Communist Party will be arrested. Jiang officially ran the Chinese regime for more than a decade, and for another decade he was the puppet master behind the scenes who often controlled events. During those decades Jiang did incalculable damage to China. At this moment when Jiang’s era is about to end, Epoch Times here republishes in serial form “Anything for Power: The Real Story of Jiang Zemin,” first published in English in 2011. The reader can come to understand better the career of this pivotal figure in today’s China.
Based on media reports, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection has already gone to places where Jiang Zemin and his sons have made their fortunes.
