breaking news: China's revenge
China is now calling for a boycott of Mayer Brown in retaliation for withdrawing from Kongkong University
They call on all Chinese to boycott Mayer Brown
This is a completely new case - There is China's leadership that has gone against the boycott of Mayer Brown - as punishment because they have withdrawn from the case of The pillar of Shame
We have this news from the news
So now Mayer Brown is coming into disrepute in china because they have over that they have listened to us- and china has made this backlash
The former Hong Kong leader has called on Chinese companies to boycott Mayer Brown after the US law firm stopped representing a local university seeking to remove a memorial to the Tiananmen Square massacre from its campus.
“I call for a boycott of Mayer Brown across China. The company owes Hong Kong a full account of its decision to cease acting for the University of Hong Kong and the foreign interventions that led to that decision, ”CY Leung told the Financial Times on Sunday.
“No customer in Hong Kong or mainland China, especially those with a relationship with the Chinese government, will find Mayer Brown reliable.”
Statements from Jens Galschiøt 17 oct :
I am very surprised by this. China is now escalating the confkit tik to a whole new level.
As I see it, they shoot themselves in the foot. Because that's exactly how they're going to bring the news of The Pillar of Shame ins hongkong and the about memorial to the Tiananmen square crackdown in 1989
To spread the news within China, it will be the only possible way to get Chinese companies to join the boycott
