It all began innocuously. There were announcements last autumn that Sinomach, a Chinese builder, wanted to buy land near Boise, Idaho, to build a 30,000-acre city and industrial park modeled after special economic zones (SEZ) that exist in China. We find with some investigation that state-owned Sinomach (China National Machinery Industry Corporation), established in January 1997 and active in 130 countries, is managed by the Communist Party of China (CPC).
In a May 26, 2009, description by Dr. Xu Dixin, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and CPC master theoretician, as printed in Beijing Review, SEZs closely adhere to former Soviet leader Vladimir Lenin’s “new economic policies” defined in the 1920s. With a bit more checking we find that the U.S. government has already set up 257 “foreign trade zones” nationwide and, would you believe, the SEZ fits exactly into that definition. Then we find with more checking that these planned SEZ sites are only a “beachhead,” as specifically stated by Governor Butch Otter and his Commerce Secretary Don Dietrich. Know that the dictionary definition of beachhead is “an area on a hostile shore occupied to secure further landing of troops and supplies.” It is now evident that Sinomach is looking at similar sites in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Michigan.
