Then he says, "Oh, good, so my 4 billion dollars that I have invested there is safe, I guess." The $650,000 that Morningstar gave CRI for passing grade was like $5 in the collection plate on Sunday morning. Ronnie Chan could buy 1,500 CRIs for 1 billion dollars, and then he still has 3 billion dollars left over! And that's just counting his investments in one country!

I thought JND and WN said we should never get into politics because it was "worldly." Apparently hosting the Eastern half of the World Economic Forum sidesteps that problem.
