Dominic Ng, CEO of East West Bank, served as executive director of the China Overseas Exchange Association until 2017 and still serves in that capacity at the China Overseas Friendship Association. Both groups have been identified as front groups for China’s United Front Work Department (UFWD), a Chinese intelligence service.

China uses “United Front” work to co-opt and neutralize sources of potential opposition to the policies and authority of its ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The CCP’s United Front Work Department (UFWD)—the agency responsible for coordinating these kinds of influence operations—mostly focuses on the management of potential opposition groups inside China, but it also has an important foreign influence mission. To carry out its influence activities abroad, the UFWD directs “overseas Chinese work,” which seeks to co-opt ethnic Chinese individuals and communities living outside China, while a number of other key affiliated organizations guided by China’s broader United Front strategy conduct influence operations targeting foreign actors and states. Some of these entities have clear connections to the CCP’s United Front strategy, while others’ linkage is less explicit. Today, United Front-related organizations are playing an increasingly important role in China’s broader foreign policy under Chinese President and General Secretary of the CCP Xi Jinping. It is precisely the nature of United Front work to seek influence through connections that are difficult to publically prove and to gain influence that is interwoven with sensitive issues such as ethnic, political, and national identity, making those who seek to identify the negative effects of such influence vulnerable to accusations of prejudice.

Not only does Mr. Ng’s ties to CCP operatives raise national security concerns, but there is a potential conflict of interest in his appointment to the APEC Business Advisory Council, which began in 2023. As a result of Mr. Ng’s membership on the Business Advisory Council, he will have access to privileged information and intelligence that risks exposure to UFWD and, subsequently, the Chinese Community Party.

The letter adds ;

China has proved themselves as our greatest adversary and foreign competitor, and yet our leaders continuously jeopardize U.S. national security by allowing the People’s Republic of China (PRC) to infiltrate our third-party sector and federal government.


Senator Marco Rubio on Twitter: "Mr. Ng’s alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party are beyond disturbing and concerning. President Biden should never have appointed him to such a senior government position representing the U.S. in Asia. https://t.co/G2ydxBKw4t" / Twitter

Wondering what the take is for the Biden Crime Family and 10% for the 'big guy.'
