Chinese developer Aoyuan files for U.S. bankruptcy protection

[Straight out of the Evergrande playbook and the “Judge” in that one keeps pushing off liquidation cuz they don’t wanna be the ‘one’ who sets off the debt bomb implosion-cap]

Property developer China Aoyuan Group has filed for Chapter 15 bankruptcy protection in a U.S. court, looking to ward off litigation as the company restructures its debts.

Aoyuan joins a growing list of Chinese real estate developers that have applied for bankruptcy protection in the U.S., including China Evergrande Group and Sunac China Holdings.

The filing, submitted Wednesday local time, begins a case under Chapter 15 of the U.S. bankruptcy code, which applies to foreign-domiciled companies. During the proceedings, creditors will be unable to sue the debtor or seize U.S.-based assets. Aoyuan is looking to implement a restructuring proposal for its offshore debt under these protections. On Nov. 29, Aoyuan said that creditors approved of its restructuring scheme. The program is expected to officially take effect pending a Hong Kong court ruling set for Jan. 8.

Aoyuan is one of several heavily indebted private Chinese developers based in the southern province of Guangdong, along with Evergrande, Kaisa Group Holdings and Fantasia Holdings Group.

Aoyuan said in December 2021 that it was unable to meet creditor demands to repay $651.2 million in principal, leading S&P Global Ratings to downgrade the midsize developer to "selective default (SD)." S&P then stopped covering the company, warning of its "exceptionally weak liquidity and lack of funding access."

All three major global agencies had withdrawn their ratings by May 2022, when Fitch Ratings pulled out, citing insufficient information.

Japan Lawmakers ‘Secretly Pooled Excess Money from Ticket Sales’

[this how the LDP gets replaced-with wut I dunno but current PM at 26% and going down with this ship-please see Japan Intl bred for moar details..you’ll need a translator and don’t use google, use yandex and although Abe heavily involved (family history too) it’s now all ‘his fault’ because public perception in what this about

People affiliated with lawmakers of the Liberal Democratic Party’s Abe faction have told the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office that the lawmakers sometimes pooled quota-exceeding cash from party ticket sales without notifying the faction, it has been learned.

The special investigation squad believes the concealed funds should have been officially included as part of the faction’s income, in keeping with the kickbacks that lawmakers received from the faction side. It is thus suspected that the amount of unreported funds may increase. Members of the faction — formerly led by late Prime Minister Shinzo Abe — and the faction itself are suspected of excluding quota-exceeding kickbacks from party ticket sales.

These unreported funds are thought to have totaled about ¥500 million over the past five years. Investigators raided the faction’s offices Wednesday on suspicion that the Political Funds Control Law had been violated, and confiscated many items.

According to sources, people connected to lawmakers of the Abe faction, which is also known as Seiwa Seisaku Kenkyukai, explained to the prosecutors’ squad that the lawmakers paid only their official quota to the faction, while secretly pooling the excess money at their offices, excluding it from their political fund reports.

Some lawmakers reportedly pooled several million yen over the five-year period. The prosecutors are believed to be investigating whether or not lawmakers pooled such cash, and if so, how they spent it. Unlike kickbacks, pooled money is not recorded in the LDP’s factions’ accounting documents. However, the prosecutorial squad believes such monies should have been logged as factional income, because it was derived from faction-related parties. The Abe faction’s unreported income and expenses are thought to total about ¥1 billion, but this figure could be much higher if the pooled money was included.
