-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Via The San Francisco Chronicle. [snip] An FBI ad aimed at Chinese-speaking citizens, asking for information about Beijing-sponsored espionage in the United States or any other criminal activity, is drawing flak in San Francisco's Chinatown and at the Chinese Consulate. The ad started running Saturday in three local Chinese-language papers -- the World Journal, Ming Pao Daily and Sing Tao Daily. Translated, it reads, "Chinese living here have often helped the FBI prevent subversive elements from penetrating and harming our country. In order to protect our freedoms and democracy, we continue to seek your assistance." The ad goes on, "We would like to talk to individuals who have information about any foreign intelligence service that would intend to harm our country. We especially welcome anyone who has information about the Chinese (government) or State Security." It also provides a mailing address and phone number for tips. Sing Tao Editor Joseph Leung said the ad had prompted calls from several unhappy readers -- including one at the Chinese Consulate, wondering just how long it would run.
