China Briber Ng Lap Seng Faces Macao Trial As Spies In NY Linked To Frank Liu in UN Free on Bond

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

EDNY / UN GATE, August 20 – The day after the SDNY prosecution of Zhongsan Lui for illegal recruitment in the US was covered by Inner City Press (and the involved UN refused to answer Press questions on it), from EDNY on March 16 came this:

"Two complaints were unsealed and one amended complaint was authorized today in federal court in Brooklyn charging five defendants with various crimes related to efforts by the secret police of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) to stalk, harass, and spy on Chinese nationals residing in Queens, New York and elsewhere in the United States...  Fan “Frank” Liu and Matthew Ziburis were arrested yesterday, while Shujun Wang was arrested this morning. All three arrests occurred in the Eastern District of New York. The defendants’ initial appearances are scheduled this afternoon in Brooklyn before United States Magistrate Judge James R. Cho."

 Inner City Press had previously covered Frank Liu of the World Harmony Foundation and Congress Web TV buying his way into the United Nations, for example paying $100,000 for an insider's place in UN Peacekeeping. (Then Inner City Press was thrown out of the UN by Secretary General Antonio Guterres).

Indicted Liu's World Harmony Foundation's website still, as of March 21, 2022, says "The World Harmony Foundation is a member of the UN Environment Programme’s NGO Major Group."

On March 23, Frank Liu a/k/a Fan Liu nailed down his release: "Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Robert M. Levy:Bond Hearing as to Fan Liu held on 3/23/2022. AUSA Emily Dean present. Dfse counsel Edgar Fankbonner present. Dft not present. Mandarin interpreter Nancy Wu present. 1 surety appeared via telephone, sworn and advised of the bond obligations and gave consent to the court to sign the bond on his behalf." Frank Liu is free on bond.

  Just after 3 pm on March 16, Breon Peace, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, held a telephone press conference, to his credit, and took four questions. Inner City Press asked about the role of the UN and China's Mission to the UN, noting the NYPD Angwang case and the recent persona non grata removal of a UN staff member for working for Russia. The answer, for now, was that China's intimidation is growing wider.

Inner City Press live tweeted the March 16 presentments in which all three were bailed, thread here.

Now Ng Lap Seng, convicted in the SDNY for bribery in the UN then released back to Macao is facing trial here in November 2022: The trial of former Land, Public Works and Transport Services Directors, Li Canfeng and Jaime Carion, and businessmen, Sio Tak Kong, William Kuan and Ng Lap Seng will start on November 4, 2022...  Ng Lap Seng is accused of a crime of secret association, in conjunction with the crime of criminal association and 4 crimes of money laundering."
