Q: Which government owns eChinacities?

No board of Directors, no accounts. no official address, no transparency and a lot of censorship.   It must be run by one state or another.   I can't imagine that people would be SO altruistic.

It, if I recall correctly, is run by a privately owned company.  And in order to make money with a site like this in China, you have to walk a thin line or the site will end up getting blocked.

lokethebloke:

So who owns the company?    Should we be told?

After a few moments of 'investigation', it looks like eChinaCities is a subsidiary of SITEC, which is an umbrella company based out of Canada & Beijing.  They deal with all kinds of businesses from consulting to trade to e-business, etc...  The parent website is http://www.sitec.com

Thanks for that, what a strange set up?  There was me thinking it was some sort of front for the CIA.   I've been reading too many comics.   

 

SICTEC Group Inc. is located in Toronto, Canada in the heart of North America. It has been engaged in international development and cooperation, management consulting and international trade since its inception over a decade ago. It has a branch office in China and strategic partners in North America, South America, Europe and Australia. Its subsidiary, Sino-Canada Technology Exchange Center is accredited by the Chinese government as its legal agent to provide executive training programs to senior Chinese government officials and corporate managers overseas.

SICTEC, in partnership with various government agencies, professional associations and companies in the west, develops projects of technological and economic cooperation in China. It also contributes to economic development in China through the introduction of western technologies and management expertise, as well as capital investment. SICTEC provides consulting services to Chinese companies to assist their international market development efforts in the areas of strategic partnerships, marketing strategies and distribution network development. Through partnerships with renowned institutions and government agencies, SICTEC also provides career education and management training programs in China.

  Yeh, I like your posts Loke, especially like the way you hold that mirror, but the CIA using this pissy little site sounds like a stretch to me. But then, like they say, 'truth is stranger than fiction and there's nowt so strange as folk'.

Shame on you mArtiAn, this is not a 'pissy little site', it's a very important place for people to exchange honest,intelligent and very important opinions about China and the Chinese.   I get the impression that some who comment here are experts in many fields of Chinese social interaction.   Pity they appear to be blinkered about their own counties.
