The Far Eastern Economic Review spies self-exiled Maurice Strong hobnobbing in Dalian and gets a copy of his business card. So good to know he’s doing well despite that little oil-for-food kerfuffle. Strong is an honorary professor at Peking University, which has described him as “one of the exploiters of the global cause of environmental protection” (no argument here!) and claimed he “adds a new force to the construction of the world-class College of Environmental Sciences with Chinese characteristics.” Are those the same Chinese characteristics he was trying so hard to impart to the Canadian economy back in the Petro-Can days?
