在加拿大

Missouri’s reputation with Chinese investors is tarnished as a result of the Mamtek collapse, said a Kansas City attorney who accompanied Gov. Jay Nixon to China this week. Spencer Thomson of the Husch Blackwell law firm went to China seeking investments in a hotel planned for the Lake of the Ozarks. He hoped to raise it from Chinese families interested in the EB-5 Immigrant Investor visa program. But when he arrived at the offices of Well Trend United Inc., the owner didn’t want to talk about the hotel, Thomson said. He wanted to talk about Mamtek, which cost his investors a total of $2 million. Thomson knew Mamtek was using the same visa program to raise capital and expected some mention of it, he said. But he was not told Well Trend President Larry Wang had been the broker for Chinese investments in the failed Moberly sucralose manufacturer. “I know that they had been working at some time on the project,” Thomson said. “I didn’t know that they had four of the investors. What I do know is that it caused a real problem.”

回复: 密苏里糖厂项目，中国4个投资人钱卡无归Mamtek 公司的项目主要利用市政债券bond融资$39milliion外加EB-5$20million. 这种项目被中介宣传成无风险的项目。结果如何呢？首先，Mamtek没能按时支付BOND债券的利息。为此这个市政的债券评级从A-降到CC.其次，已有4个中国投资人的526申请被批准。现在这个项目濒于破产，即使移民局不取消区域中心的资格，这些投资人的829也会成泡影。这个结局，投资人要好好考虑了。投资人数一数，现在还有哪些项目是EB-5+BOND的投资组合呢？这类被中介摇旗呐喊的项目还不少呢！Creditors try to push Mamtek into bankruptcy | The Columbia Daily ...www.columbiatribune.com/comments/cr/73/100952/Dec 19, 2011 The role of Mamtek insiders and companies that helped finance the failed sweetener factory in Moberly would come under increased scrutiny in ...

回复: 密苏里糖厂项目，中国4个投资人钱卡无归美国项目搞诈骗，中国投资人却当成罪犯 Sinophobia Rears its Ugly Head: Mamtek's Forgotten EB-5 Investors [FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Remember October 13th's Immigration Insider, On Trust and EB-5 Marketing in China, where I mentioned Missouri's Mamtek EB-5 mess, where a number of EB-5 investors from China got taken for a ride, along with the State of Missouri? Well, it's finally making the mainstream media in the U.S...and it sounds like the whole mess is the FAULT of the Chinese![/FONT] [FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]In a rather comprehensive Associated Press Article on Failed Job Creation Plans, the writer opens by describing Mamtek as "A global company with Chinese ownership"...leaving the reader with the impression that the only victims were in Missouri, and that the perpetrators were from China. Nothing could be further from the truth: the former Chairman and President of Mamtek was California Attorney Bruce Cole . Mr. Cole's very distinguished resume, as you can see in that link, suggests a long-standing involvement in business in China and Hong Kong. After the company imploded -- maybe before or during, it isn't clear -Mamtek at some point named a new president, another California attorney, this one a bankruptcy lawyer named Peter Kravitz. (Mamtek's former attorney, Steven Peden, had said to the press a few months ago that he believed Mamtek plans to work out a payment plan to avoid bankruptcy court...sure isn't looking that way.) [/FONT][FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Doesn't sound very "Chinese owned" to me.[/FONT] [FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]The AP article not only mischaracterizes the underlying ownership of Mamtek, but totally omits the fact that 15 Chinese investors lost both their $500,000 (plus whatever other fees) AND their shot at U.S. permanent residency. That stings a lot more than Missouri's loss of their $39 million of taxpayer dollars. The latter is the bumbling of public funds, hardly a novelty in America (or, for that matter, anywhere); the former is a half a million hard-earned bucks out of an individuals pocket. Ouch! The greatest irony in all of this is that the Chinese players who WERE involved were innocent investors -- and a top-tier Chinese migration agency with an otherwise-sterling reputation. Sharon and I know the folks at this particular agency (whose name I won't mention because they've gotten enough misleading press already) and we know for a fact they will be, when all is said and done and they've squared with their investors, the biggest victim of all.[/FONT] [FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]This whole business of blaming China for American EB-5 disasters is quite tiresome. There are hundreds of registered Chinese migration agencies in China and the vast majority know as much about EB-5 as I know about molecular biology. Most are purely commission driven and their lousy reputations are hardly a secret. A small number of them - such as the agency which marketed Mamtek in China -- are stellar organizations owned and managed by individuals with impeccable credentials and a history of fair dealing and aggressively protecting the interests of their migrating clients. [/FONT] [FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]The reasons the "Mamteks" of the EB-5 world happen has nothing to do with folks on the other side of the Pacific. They happen because of the Gordon-Gecko-esque "greed is good" mentality which is pervasive in too large a portion of the U.S. EB-5 sector. [/FONT] [FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Jose LaTour 律师说的正确，“贪婪是应该的”观念在美国EB-5行业蔓延，项目越大，钱越多！[/FONT]
