中國修改反間諜法可能令外商卻步,從而對經濟雪上加霜:

"Some foreign business executives say they worry the rewriting of the espionage law means that many topics, ranging from the status of Taiwan to China’s human rights record to technology such as semiconductors, are now becoming off limits in discussions with their Chinese counterparts."

日本在中國的潛在人質太多了:

[ 日本現在沒有“間諜防止法”,也就是“反間諜法”,而世界其它各國一般都有,二戰後直到今天,沒有外國人在日本因 “間諜罪”受到刑事處罰,因為沒有“反間諜法”,抓住外國間諜也沒有相應的法律,有時只能用“出入境難民管理法”等相關法律,實行驅除出境等極其輕微的處罰。日本現在的信息透明性極高,“機密情報”極少,在中國被算作“間諜行為”的事情,往往在日本根本不算什麼事,因此日本人到了中國,讓他們認知什麼是“間諜行為”,他們完全沒有參照系,往往會不知所措,即使有時受到日本與收集情報相關的部門的指使,在中國收集一些情報,他們對這種行為在中國的“違法性”的認識,也是相當遲鈍的。]

有<反間諜法>這種綁匪工具在,外企還不得考慮再撤離一波?

"中國商務部9月15日公布,今年1至8月,全國實際使用外資金額人民幣8471.7億元(約新台幣3.72兆元),年減5.1%。這是中國吸收外資連續第3個月下降,比1至7月再下降1.1個百分點。"

無論是美國商會或歐盟商會都對中國市場前景感到悲觀:

"Less than half of respondents saw their 2022 revenue increase compared with the previous year, the lowest in more than 15 years. Some 68% of respondents said they were profitable last year, the lowest rate since the survey began, while just 37% saw their operating margins grow from the previous year, the lowest since 2008.

The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China echoed many of the same sentiments in a position paper also released Tuesday that reflected the views of its more than 1,700 member companies. The group cited concerns over the country’s anti-espionage and data-security laws, among other challenges."

紐時這篇內容跟WSJ差不多; 目前看來外資對中國經濟政策維持敬而遠之的態度:

"The pileup of difficulties is weighing on decisions about whether to put more money into the Chinese economy. Foreign direct investment plunged 87 percent from April through June, compared with the same months last year, according to Nomura, a Japanese bank. That is the lowest quarterly level since modern records began in early 1998.

接連不斷的困難正在影響外企在華投資的決定。日本野村銀行的數據顯示,今年4月至6月的外國直接投資與去年同期相比驟減了87%。這是自1998年初有了現代記錄以來的最低季度水平。"

反間諜法針對外國人, 主張一個中國的中國法律又將台灣歸屬於該法適用範圍, 這下好玩了~

[ The proposed law fits neatly against the backdrop of Mr. Xi’s policies that have caused China to churn out a series of arbitrary laws in a hurry. The Foreign State Immunity Law, which will go into effect in January 2024, will deny foreigners sovereign-immunity protection if their commercial activity has a “direct effect within the territory of China.” That presumably would include Taiwan. The Foreign Relations Law, which took effect in July, appears to be little more than a bundle of Mr. Xi’s quotes, but it made clear that the party will take charge of international relations, including “necessary measures” to protect Chinese interests overseas. The Anti-Spy Law, which also became effective in July, dramatically expanded China’s definition of espionage. The Patriotic Education Law and a new security law in Hong Kong are coming next. ]

多操作幾次就能嚇跑更多台商啦~

"蔡明彥表示,這9件赴中遭盤查者的身分,包括社會團體人士、學者、 大陸配偶等,台灣民眾最近到對岸遭關押入罪的則有13件;中國盤查台灣民眾過程,主要會調查該民眾曾發表的政治言論,看通訊或手機訊息有無談到批判中國內容。

蔡明彥表示,大約20天前有一個非常特殊案件,這名台灣民眾是入境後進入飯店,才被中國國安單位約談,是少見的例子。"

令人聯想到之前財經網美Emmy說的中國公安與國安開始互通資訊:

“知情人士透露,有綠營人士向海基會尋求協助,告知小英之友會一名成員在中國被抓,人身自由受到限制。目前不清楚是否為國安案件,相關單位正在追查中。”

小粉紅們應該是喜聞樂見?

"日本研調公司帝國徵信(Teikoku Databank)公佈的數據顯示,2020年到2022年間,進駐中國的日企數量從1萬3600家,減少至1萬2700家,總數創下10年新低,與疫情前相比下降約7%。相較於2020年2月進行的前1次調查,共有2176家企業離開中國或下落不明,116家公司破產和停業,以地區來看上海共272家,減少的數量最多,其次為廣東203家、山東152家。"

中國這種進得去出不來的把戲搞久了,資本跟人才都不可能冒險再投入的:

"China has been known to place exit bans on people that are being investigated or assisting with government probes. Such travel restrictions have been imposed on Chinese and foreign nationals, and aren’t typically known to the individuals they apply to until they attempt to leave mainland China.

The persons in question could be involved in investigations that could drag out for months or years. They could also be foreign nationals who face no allegations of wrongdoing but are held to put pressure on family members to return to the country."

這個避免前往範圍會擴大到香港:

“因為王仲何被限制出境之後,更多的投資銀行家會避免前往中國大陸,而只能通過其他渠道,獲取類似於中國宏觀經濟指標的消息,以及2024、2025年宏觀經濟發展指標能否達到中國政府對外承諾的預期。這讓外界會增加對於中國實際經濟發展情況的誤判。”

嚇跑資金仍然衣帶漸寬終不悔,不愧是中國作風啊~

"The growing use of exit bans have added to concerns for foreign firms in China. Chinese authorities often place exit bans on people—both Chinese and foreign nationals—being investigated or those who are assisting with government probes. People targeted typically don’t know about their exit bans until they try to leave mainland China.

China’s use of exit bans has contributed to the U.S. State Department’s advice to reconsider travel to the country due to its arbitrary enforcement of laws. China rejects that characterization as politically biased."

目前尚是中國貿易獲利最大來源的歐盟看到米日外商高管的前車之鑑而要中國劃出界線預防自己人受害:

"One agreement to emerge from the summit, the two European presidents agreed, was a mechanism for China to provide more clarity on how European companies can follow stricter rules on transferring data out of the country.

這兩名歐洲領導人都同意,此次峰會達成了一項協議,那就是建立一個機制,讓中國提供更明確的說明,以便歐洲企業了解把數據傳輸到國外時如何遵守更嚴格的規則。"

外資面對的中國國安法風險只會有增無減:

"《日經新聞》二十二日也報導,日本一家金屬貿易商一名中國籍員工,以及可能與該日企有交易關係的中國國企一名員工,今年三月不明原因被捕。消息人士透露,這兩人皆負責稀土金屬業務,在中國收緊稀土管控之際,推測他們可能因涉嫌洩漏相關訊息而遭捕。"
