The biggest hardware company in the world, Stanley Black & Decker closed factory in Shenzhen, China, thousands of people lost their jobs
(29 Oct) The biggest tools and hardware company in the world, Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. has suddenly noticed people about the close of their branch in Shenzhen, China on 26th October and dismissed all employees on the 28th, thousands of people lost their jobs in one blink. Besides the brand in Shenzhen, Stanley Black & Decker also dismissed their subsidiary, Black & Decker, in Shenzhen at the same time.
According to the media, Black & Decker is the subsidiary of Stanley Black & Decker, registered in China with 10 million USD in 2012, mainly manufacturing products like electric tools and vacuum cleaner, and had more than 1000 full-time employees. They were listed as the 228th in the top 500 American companies, also the biggest tools and hardware manufacturing company.
This act by Stanley Black & Decker has shaken up the industry, they explained the reason for dismissing Black & Decker in Shenzhen is “following the overall change of the market and the increasing competitors, the group has to reorganize resources and maintain market competitiveness based in strategies.”
However, there are different opinions outside. Some Chinese media thinks that Shenzhen has re-started working long ago, a big possibility is because of the trade war tariff issues between the US and China, that it has forced Stanley Black & Decker to move out of China.
The Radio Free China (RFA) thinks that since the outbreak of the trade war between the US and China, there were already a lot of foreign companies moving out from China to Southeast Asia, while it was difficult for Stanley Black & Decker as they are export-oriented, especially China could not stop infringement effectively, forcing Stanley Black & Decker to make the hard choice.
While the Epoch Times thinks that except in Shenzhen, Stanley Black & Decker has their manufacturing factories and research bases in other places like Suzhou and Shanghai, and have participated in strikes for many times in the past 10 years, with the biggest strike that gathered thousands of people.
The Epoch Times also reported that the Stanley Black & Decker group was once deceived by their subsidiary in Suzhou, China, that they violated the sanction against Iran and paid the fine of 1.869 million USD in 2019 for the close of file. Stanley Black & Decker’s Suzhou subsidiary was originally China Guoqiang Company, but after acquisition and merger by Stanley Black & Decker, they still export electric tools to Iran 23 times, costing 3.2 million USD, and used 6 other companies to make the fake bill of lading and statements in order to hide the fact that they are trading with Iran. The Suzhou subsidiary was then found out by the Stanley Black & Decker group and reported to the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
The future of the production line of Stanley Black & Decker remains unclear.

Canadians who say they’ve been targeted by foreign agents want coordinated response
Four victims of threats and intimidation by Iranian, Chinese and Russian foreign agents joined a Parliament Hill press conference on Thursday, where they gave harrowing accounts of harassment by foreign agents operating on Canadian soil. They said Canadian domestic police forces have proven ill-equipped to deal with their concerns.
These four people are husband of a deceased in the Boeing jet fired by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, members of Canada’s Tibetan and Uighur communities, a Canadian filmmaker and journalist who specializes in Russia.
A private member’s bill from Conservative MP Garnett Genuis calling on the federal government to take stronger action against foreign interference. Conservative Party had a motion in the House of Commons to call on the Liberal government to take a harder line against national security threats from China.

Washington to Restrict Cloud Service Providers from Cooperating With Foreign Companies That Harbor Hackers, Targeting at China, Russia and Iran
Cyber-attack by hackers is rampant. A report said that President Trump is drafting an executive order to restrict the international operation of U.S. cloud computing companies such as Amazon and Microsoft, regulating their corporation with foreign cloud companies, in an effort to protect against foreign cyber-attack from hackers, referring to those from China, Russia, and Iran.
According to sources, the executive order allows the Department of Commerce to prohibit U.S. cloud providers from partnering with foreign cloud companies that offer safe haven to hackers and forbid foreign providers from operating in the U.S., preventing foreign hackers to conduct quick and anonymous cyberattacks through cloud service provider.
U.S. officials repeatedly accuse China of its economic and security threat. The report said that this executive order is intended to address the attack from China. It has also been reported that the measure is also targeted to deal with hacking attacks by Russia and Iran.

China, With $400 Billion Iran Deal, Could Deepen Influence in Mideast
China and Iran signed 25 years investment agreement on Mar 27. Iran did not make the details of the agreement public before the signing, nor did the Chinese government give specifics. But experts said it believed that China agreed to invest $400 billion in Iran over 25 years in exchange for a steady supply of oil to fuel its growing economy.
The deal could deepen China’s influence in the Middle East and undercut American efforts to keep Iran isolated. But it was not immediately clear how much of the agreement can be implemented while the U.S. dispute with Iran over its nuclear program remains unresolved.
The draft also called for deepening military cooperation, including joint training and exercises, joint research and weapons development and intelligence-sharing.

China’s soft power has ‘collapsed globally’ due to ‘anger and hysteria’
China’s reaction to the cancelling of the dangerous Belt and Road agreement in a “wolf warrior fashion” will end up being a large “own goal” for Beijing, according to the Australian Strategic Policy Institute’s Michael Shoebridge.
The controversial Belt and Road Initiative agreement between Beijing and the Andrews government in Victoria was cancelled last night by the foreign affairs minister using the new foreign relations bill powers.
The deal was amongst four agreements with countries such as Iran, Syria, and China that the federal government opted to cancel after they were deemed inconsistent with Australia’s national interests.

One of their notable deeds is making sure that women are only out in public when they have a male chaperone. The Qod Force is the elite within the group.
