I still recall how China dangled the prospect of a major monorail deal in front of Germany’s nose, then got them to build a test stretch between Shanghai and the airport and then cancelled the deal and built their own based on the German model they had so graciously provided…

Anyone who does business in China must agree to open offices in country and partner with a Chinese firm, who must have access to the outside firm’s intellectual property. China has done the same thing with scores of other foreign companies.
