Crown's unsavoury business links: How Australia's casino got tied up with criminals

Former head of Border Force, Roman Quaedvlieg, claims that he was lobbied by two ministers and another MP to help “smooth out” the border security process for Crown’s big gamblers arriving from China.

Victorian police officer Greg Leather and a client shooting at a property in Murrindindi owned by Crown junket operator Tom Zhou.Hunting animals and making millions were not Zhou’s only Melbourne enterprises. He was also heavily involved in three organisations aligned with the Chinese Communist Party’s United Front operation - the organisation which works to influence Chinese diaspora communities and overseas political systems to advance the aims of the Communist Party.

Zhou’s connections to politicians is not over-stated. In 2013, the Zhou-chaired Hubei Chamber of Commerce in Melbourne appointed as its executive president a former adviser to Victorian premier Daniel Andrews, Mike Yang, who knew Zhou through Yang’s father. Multiple reports have documented the use of violent criminals to suppress the democracy movement in Hong Kong, including as recently as last week. In 1993, the chief of China’s domestic security agency, Tao Siju, sparked controversy by saying that: “as for organisations like the triads in Hong Kong, as long as these people are patriotic … we should unite with them.”

From 2006-2012, Chai was appointed president of a subsidiary of telecommunications company ZTE, whose biggest shareholder is the Chinese government’s aerospace and satellite research agency. After this, Chai headed another listed Chinese telecommunications firm. The leaked Crown data reveals that, in 2014, Chai became one of Crown’s top fifty Chinese high rollers, turning over tens of millions of dollars. The following year, Crown offered Chai free gambling cash and tickets to the Grand Prix. Flight records and his business partnerships with two Crown junkets, Tom “Chinatown” Zhou and Simon Pan, also suggest that Chai himself may be involved in junket activity.

Crown's unsavoury business links: How Australia's casino got tied up with criminalsA year-long investigation by The Age and 60 Minutes raises concerns that Crown is tied up with criminals, and also with the Chinese Communist Party’s attempts to gain influence in Australia. Do you really think that this comes as a surprise to anyone ? Pauline was right . Having a Premier that goes to China personally all the time looks odd........we do have ministers to do a lot of this work. Here's one with the Communist party. Lovely shot.
