Naturally, immigrants to the West from China and other Asian countries import their ingrained senses of ethics (or lack thereof) and sharp business practices along with them. This is a key reason why high levels of Asian immigration are so dangerous to the West; along with the law-abiding, we are importing casual criminality and wholesale corruption, which is far more damaging in the long term than substandard goods sold at loss-making prices in order to drive Western competitors out of business.

From a Washington Post article titled “Chinese Companies Face Culture Shock in Countries that Aren’t Like China:”

In the United States, Chinese companies are facing hundreds of millions of dollars in damage claims over drywall imported to rebuild thousands of homes in the wake of Hurricane Katrina; it is alleged to have emitted toxic gas, caused respiratory problems and corroded electrical appliances.

In Texas, state-owned Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC) is being sued for $7.5 billion by a former joint venture partner, Tang Energy, which claims it cheated on their deal to develop wind power — partly by creating competing businesses in the same field. It is something AVIC might have gotten away with at home but not in the West.

“In China, the state owns the enterprises, and it owns the court. So if you’re a state-owned company, you never have to worry about having a fair fight. And here they have a fair fight on their hands,” E. Patrick Jenevein III, Tang’s chief executive, said last year, according to the Dallas Morning News.

In Poland, China Overseas Engineering Group had its contract to build a highway in the run-up to the 2012 European soccer championships canceled after costs ballooned: The company had failed to allow, among many other things, for the cost of compliance with local environmental laws, including the need to build tunnels under the road for frogs to cross.

All over the world, Chinese companies have faced a political backlash for bringing in their own workers rather than employing locals — and for mistreating the locals they do employ.

Having deployed to East Asia on eight different occasions for military exercises, I am an expert on Asian cheating. They do it frequently and rabidly. And while I like Asians (I grew up on the periphery of New York’s Chinatown), I do know that their culture is considerably different than ours and that continued large scale importation of Chinese is not a particularly a good thing for our civilization, or what is left of it.

For example, to the typical Western military mind, the purpose of our military exercises is to learn from the mistakes we make in training, so as to not repeat them on the battlefield. As the Roman legions said of their then commander, the future Emperor Tiberius, “His drills were bloodless battles, and his battles were bloody drills.” In short, we train as we fight. Not so to the Asians. They simply want to look good and come out on top, no matter what.

For example, I was the senior intelligence controller for the Joint Warfighting Center, stationed then at Fort Monroe, VA. We deployed all over the world in support of command post exercises involving our allies (NATO partners, Egyptians, Qataris, Thais, Koreans, and Japanese). Each ally was allowed one liaison officer in the control cell who sat with me to observe ground truth, or “God’s view of the battlefield” and the perception of the battlefield by the U.S. forces and our allied partners. I knew for a fact that Japanese and Thai liaison officers routinely passed the “God’s view of the battlefield” to their buddies in the allied training audience, because no matter how poorly placed the allied sensors were, they always seemed to have the “God’s view.” The Koreans were not so bad because they sat side-by-side with their American counterparts, so the opportunities to cheat were less. And they were more Americanized than the other East Asians, but I suspect they would have cheated if they could. But it is worth noting that I , I never had any such problem with our European partners.

People often say that Northeast Asians (Chinese, Koreans and Japanese) are more intelligent than whites.

Maybe that’s true on average, but as the late Phil Rushton and others have noticed, there is more variation around the mean among whites; North East Asians are grouped around the center. So with North East Asians you get lots of engineers, but very few geniuses. With whites you get lots of not very bright people but also lots of geniuses. The same is also true with respect to men and women. More men are retarded then women, but more men are geniuses.

We all have a part to play in God’s world, but we would be blind not to notice the differences between groups.
