Cambodia’s scam parks have deep and multifaceted ties to China, involving criminal networks, political connections, and economic initiatives

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

When China intensified its crackdown on cybercrime, many involved in the industry relocated to Cambodia, transforming the country into a major hub for online fraud, forced labor, and human trafficking. These operations are largely run by Chinese criminal organizations that have established bases in casinos and business centers across Cambodia, often with the collusion of powerful local figures.

A key factor enabling this expansion is China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which has facilitated increased Chinese investment and presence in Cambodia since 2013. While the BRI promotes infrastructure development and trade, it has also allowed criminal groups to infiltrate alongside legitimate enterprises, forming collusive relationships with local elites. Chinese crime syndicates operate fraud hubs such as the Bavet Business Center, a 100,000-square-meter complex described as a “fraud hub” by Cambodian NGOs, where thousands live and work under suspicious conditions.

There are also indications of ideological alignment between some criminal groups and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). For example, a former Chinese mafia boss established the “World Hongmen History and Culture Association” in Cambodia, which engages in fraud while also promoting CCP narratives such as the “great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation”. This reflects a broader strategy of “united front work,” where overseas Chinese networks, including criminal organizations, are leveraged to shape international opinion in China’s favor.

Financial systems supporting these scams are also linked to China. The Cambodia-based payment platform HuiOne, banned in China, serves as a major money “gateway” for laundering illicit proceeds from online scams across the Mekong region, converting them into U.S. dollars and Chinese yuan. One of HuiOne’s directors, Hun To, is a cousin of Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet and has longstanding ties to Chinese organized crime.

Moreover, high-level complicity is alleged, with properties housing scam centers often owned by senior Cambodian officials or business elites connected to the government. In Poipet, near the Thai border, a casino allegedly run by a government-connected senator hosts Chinese-run scams. Similarly, the Life Sciences Institute, located within a telecom fraud park controlled by Cambodia’s Prince Group, has been linked to Chinese capital and political protection, with the group’s founder accused of acting as a “white glove” for elite CCP families.

While Cambodia has conducted raids and arrests—such as detaining around 1,000 foreigners, mostly Chinese and Koreans, in Kampong Speu province—the cyber scam industry continues to thrive, generating an estimated $12.5 billion annually and relying on the forced labor of approximately 100,000 to 150,000 people from over 50 countries. Despite joint efforts between Cambodia and China to combat online fraud, the deep entrenchment of these networks, supported by BRI-related flows of money and influence, makes eradication extremely difficult.

They are attacking Candace with the Cassandra complex trope

They are attacking Candace with the Cassandra complex trope in fiction

The “Cassandra Truth” trope in movies is when a flawed or “crazy” person uncovers a massive conspiracy, but no one believes them because their past gets weaponized to discredit everything. Sound familiar? It’s exactly what’s happening with Mitch Snow and Candace Owens.

Take “Conspiracy Theory” (1997): Mel Gibson’s paranoid taxi driver rants about wild plots, so when he nails a real one involving the CIA, everyone dismisses him as unhinged. Or “12 Monkeys” (1995): Bruce Willis’s time-traveler warns of a virus apocalypse, but his erratic history lands him in psych wards—turns out he’s spot on.

Snow claims he stumbled on a secret Fort Huachuca meeting tied to Charlie Kirk’s assassination eve. Docs confirm he was detained there. But critics flood with his messy past (abuse allegations, military fibs) instead of probing the claims. It’s the trap: Smear the messenger, ignore the message. If he’s lying, prove it with facts—not character assassination. Don’t let Hollywood scripts play out in real life. Verify first.

The “Cassandra Truth” trope comes from Greek mythology: Cassandra, daughter of King Priam of Troy, was granted prophecy by Apollo but cursed so no one would believe her after she rejected him. She foretold Troy’s fall and disasters, yet was dismissed as mad. This evolved into the “Cassandra complex” in psychology (coined in 1949 by philosopher Gaston Bachelard, expanded by analysts like Laurie Layton Schapira), describing valid warnings ignored due to the messenger’s perceived unreliability.

It’s exactly what’s playing out with Mitch Snow and Candace Owens. Snow claims he stumbled on a secret Fort Huachuca meeting tied to Charlie Kirk’s assassination eve—docs confirm his detention there. But critics hammer his past (abuse claims, military issues) instead of investigating the allegations.

This is what all of us who know something very important and devastating fear, along with being killed or drugged into psychosis. Attacks like this are predictable and often work. They are a very strong indication that the story is serious and true, or mostly true. In most cases, dangerous stories are also complex and, typically, the perpetrators are better at weaving the coverup than we are seeing with this one. Expect also a lot of swearing and screaming at the whistleblowers who are over the target. ABN

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey Says if Deportation Operations Continue Minnesota Residents Will Start Killing ICE Agents

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Newsguard will note for their information filtering system, that Mayor Jacob Frey did not directly say residents of the region will start killing ICE agents.  However, Mayor Frey did say if the ICE deportation operations continue, ICE agents are likely to be killed.  The obvious question is, ‘who will do the killing, Jacob‘?

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey have built the illegal alien powder-keg while both have financially benefitted from the subsequent Somali community fraud, then together they blame the presence of federal law enforcement -Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)- agents for striking the match.

When people use the word communism today, they are referring to the tactics and strategies of communist revolution.

They are also referring the goals of communist revolution — all power and wealth for themselves, held only by them and no one else.

This is why those same types also scream for censorship, saying it is ‘to protect our free-speech’; weird inversions of meaning are signature communism.

Basically, communists use fake moral suasion to gull citizens into accepting policies which will destroy them, and for which they will pay for dearly all along the way.

With communists, you pay for your own demise, while they grow fat on their corrupt windfall of new wealth and absolute power.

Once they begin to succeed and consolidate power, communists make statements like the above, also based on fake moral suasion, to protect their corruption, graft, power and anti-White anti-Americanism.

Mayor Frey is Jewish and likely a Jewish Supremist. Jewish Supremists today are using the same communist techniques they perfected in the Soviet Union.

Walz is a running dog, to use commie lingo in reverse; means he is a toady to ‘the cause’.

These types have infiltrated all over USA and the West and they are rapidly destroying our civilization. No doubt about that. ABN

The EU Leaders Shouting About Visa Bans are the Same EU Leaders Who Sent Political Operatives into the U.S. to Support Kamala Harris

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

EU leaders from across the spectrum of their collective assembly, are furious with the administration of President Donald Trump for restricting their entry into the United States by blocking their visa permissions.  However, these same EU leaders are the people who sent operatives into the United States in order to interfere in our 2024 election.

The Vice President of the European Commission, Kaja Kallas, sums up the European position: “The decision by the U.S. to impose travel restrictions on European citizens and officials is unacceptable and an attempt to challenge our sovereignty. Europe will keep defending its values — freedom of expression, fair digital rules, and the right to regulate our own space.”

The “attempt to challenge our sovereignty” statement is a particular type of hubris when we consider THIS:

GREAT BRITAIN (October 2024) – The British Labour Party is sending approximately 100 current and former staff members to the United States to work for Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign in key swing states.

[SOURCE – LINKEDIN]

Not only did the U.K attempt to challenge our sovereignty, but they also actively worked to influence the outcome of our national election in 2024.

The same pearl-clutching assembly now standing jaw-agape at the Trump administration recognizing their censorship, are the same assembly who engaged in political operations intended to influence the voting voice of the American electorate.

Methinks they doth protest too much.

It is worth remembering the British intelligence operation (Secret Intelligence Service (SIS), commonly known as MI6) was at the center of the Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy in 2016.

The first EU political group to be targeted with the visa bans includes French former EU commissioner Thierry Breton, who was one of the architects of the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA). Also: Imran Ahmed, the British CEO of the U.S.-based Center for Countering Digital Hate, Anna-Lena von Hodenberg and Josephine Ballon of the German non-profit HateAid, and Clare Melford, co-founder of the Global Disinformation Index.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the first five people targeted with visa bans “have led organized efforts to coerce American platforms to censor, demonetize and suppress American viewpoints they oppose.”

I would say that given the direct nature of the U.K effort to undermine American viewpoints, Secretary of State Marco Rubio is being diplomatically generous in his visa ban.

I Investigated Minnesota’s Billion Dollar Fraud Scandal

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

The number of mainstream news outlets who are doing investigative journalism on the ground in Minnesota to uncover the scale and scope of the Somali fraud rings are zero.  However, one citizen journalist named Nick Shirley has put some extensive time into actually visiting the childcare centers at the heart of the scandal and his report is stunning.

In this 40-minute video, Shirley takes the time to search govt databases for grants, then goes and visits the actual businesses. Shirley confronts the fraudsters directly and has likely just put a big target on his back.

Maine Suspends Payments to Somali Charity after $1M in Fraud Uncovered by Audits

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Officials in Maine have suspended state Medicaid payments to a Somali-run charity after more than a million dollars in possible fraud was discovered in several audits of the charity’s services.

The Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has cancelled MaineCare payments to Gateway Community Services after the audits found that the charity over billed the state for $1,068,598 from March 2021 through December 2022. The cash was supposedly to cover the costs of “interpreting services” to Somali migrants, the Bangor Daily News reported.

This same organization has been under investigation before. Gateway reportedly overbilled for more than $600,000 between 2015 and 2018, and is still under a cloud of suspicion for other violations found during a third state audit completed in 2024.

Peter Thiel — ‘My bias is to defer to Israel’

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

The reality is individuals, even at or near the top, do not have much power over how the global/Western political system works.

Everyone at or near the top is enmeshed in circles of people, money, and power.

When power in the system is applied, as in Gaza, I doubt Thiel has any say in how his products are used.

A good analogy for how political power works is in the video below, which describes how big banks and huge funds have entirely captured not just the world’s money supply but also what money even is.

The only way we the plebs can affect any of this is make our views known. We have a weak position but our opinions do matter.

My sense is Thiel is not evil. His embarrassment and fumbling are likely symptoms of his knowing the slaughter in Gaza is horrible and he is powerless.

Many people, myself included, do not even want to participate in the system since it strongly feels like making a pact with the devil.

That’s the world. Some of us are in the thick of it, making the world turn.

Some of us become artists, hermits or monks.

I have a clear conscience but am also aware that I do not face the moral conundrums Thiel faces daily.

The truth is the world needs Peter Thiels and also artists, hermits and monks. ABN
