GILIRAN AMERIKA DIKEROYOK OLEH FIRMA DANA ASING

Kini tiba giliran USA mengecapi rasa bagaimana dijajah dari segi ekonomi dan kewangan. Singapura, China, UAE dan Kuwait berlumba-lumba membeli saham syarikat gergasi Amerika seperti Citigroup (citibank dll), Merril Lynch dan Morgan Stanley. Sila rujuk jadual di bawah.
Ungkapan yang sama seperti di bawah berlaku kepada mana-mana negara yang membiarkan dana asing masuk membanjiri sesebuah negara. Ini termasuk negara kita.
"The potential dangers are truly staggering.

The thought that foreign entities could control the purse strings of our country is a clear and present danger.

CONTROL.

In financing so much of our economic engine, these sovereign funds could easily gain influence over U.S. economic decisions. Where and to whom financial institutions could lend money. Where businesses should build factories. Where they should set up R&D facilities. How they should structure their investments.."

Myth & LIE : Foreign Capital and Sovereign Wealth Funds Don't Pose a Threat to Our Economic System

"I think that's quite constructive and I think that we should be open to allowing that kind of investment."
- Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke

“...there is no doubt that sovereign wealth funds are growing in size and number and are making increasingly significant investments in financial services organizations worldwide.”
- Federal Reserve Board General Counsel,
Scott Alvarez

"As we seek to open new markets abroad, America will keep our markets open at home to investment from private firms and from sovereign wealth funds."
- Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson

You know the government has spent our country into oblivion. And the only way to keep funding their spending is to borrow. And for years they have looked overseas for investors to purchase our debt.

But things are beginning to change. Today these Sovereign Wealth Funds are buying far more than securities. They're buying businesses who are crippled by the credit crisis. They're buying banks. Real estate. You name it, they have a hand in it.
The price of foreign money

These Sovereign Wealth Funds are making massive investments here in the U.S. The China Investment Corporation (CIC) had recently been in talks with Morgan Stanley to buy up to 49% of the investment bank. Nearly A MAJORITY INTEREST in one of our oldest financial institutions.

Other New York banks are also busy selling minority shares to foreign funds. There have been major capital infusions from both Middle East and Russian funds, among others. Why is this so troubling? One word.

CONTROL.

In financing so much of our economic engine, these sovereign funds could easily gain influence over U.S. economic decisions. Where and to whom financial institutions could lend money. Where businesses should build factories. Where they should set up R&D facilities. How they should structure their investments...

The potential dangers are truly staggering.

The thought that foreign entities could control the purse strings of our country is a clear and present danger. Countries, like China, are not neutral investors in their own markets, why should we expect them to be neutral in ours?
