The audit requirement, established in 2002, has been applicable to all foreign companies that seek to issue public stocks in the US. According to the SEC, China and Hong Kong are the only country or territory that house companies refusing to abide by the rules.
It is very good that you point out the aggression against Yugoslavia but I am very puzzled why you refer to 3 journalists being killed in the NATO attack on Yugoslavia but do not refer to the attack on the Chinese embassy in Belgrade. The Americans fired 5 cruise missiles at the embassy, 4 of which exploded killing embassy staff. Luckily the missile aimed at the rooms where the ambassador was located failed to detonate and so he survived. This was a direct attack on China. Everyone in Serbia remembers this attack and many in the world.

The resource-rich South China Sea is a constant source of tension among South-Eastern Asian countries. The region is the subject of overlapping territorial and maritime claims by several states, including China, Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei. Apart from harboring vast natural resources, the region is also an important waterway, with trillions of dollars-worth in trade passing through it each year.
