Viewing cable 08HONGKONG2147, EXTRANCHECK: POST SHIPMENT VERIFICATION: SHARE HK LTD

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables
If you find meaningful or important information in a cable, please link directly to its unique reference number. Linking to a specific paragraph in the body of a cable is also possible by copying the appropriate link (to be found at theparagraph symbol). Please mark messages for social networking services like Twitter with the hash tags #cablegate and a hash containing the reference ID e.g. #08HONGKONG2147.

1.Unauthorized disclosure of the information provided below is 
prohibited by Section 12C of the Export Administration Act. 
 
2. As per reftel A request and at the direction of the Office of 
Enforcement Analysis (OEA) of the USDOC Bureau of Industry and 
Security (BIS), Export Control Officer Philip Ankel (ECO) attempted 
to conduct a post shipment-verification (PSV) at Share Hk. Ltd., 
Flat A, 8/F King Yip Pty Bldg, 59 King Yip Street, Kwun Tong, Hong 
Kong (Share). The items in question are semiconductors 
(TIS5962-9679001NXB, DM: SMQ320C32PCMM50) exported to Share on or 
about April 5, 2008 and valued at USD 8500.  On the applicable 
shippers export declaration (SED), these items are classified under 
export control classification number (ECCN) 3A001 and, if properly 
classified, would be controlled for national security (NS) reasons. 
These appear to be items that may be shipped license-free to Hong 
Kong but would, in virtually all circumstances, require a license 
for shipment to mainland China.  The exporter was Rochester 
Electronics of Newburyport, Massachusetts. 
 
3.  According to the Hong Kong Companies Registry, Share was 
registered in July 2003.  Its paid in capital is the Hong Kong 
equivalent of USD 2500.  Its directors and shareholders are listed 
as mainland nationals Jiang, Hu (mainland passport number 
G00909507), Xia, Qiu Min (mainland passport number G06780470) and 
Xia, Zehghui (mainland passport number G06689017).  The corporate 
secretary is listed as HKRTP Limited (this is the corporate 
secretary for companies that were the subject of other unfavorable 
PSVs including those referenced in reftels B and C). 
 
4.  As detailed further below, Share appears to be related to Wing 
Lee (China-Hong Kong) Trading Co. Ltd. (Wing Lee), the subject of a 
previous unfavorable PSV described in reftel D.  Specifically, the 
bill-to information in the Rochester transaction documentation 
provided by OEA is Wing Lee at Wing Lee's addressed noted in reftel 
D.  Additionally, the contact name for the order in that 
documentation (Xu, Hui) corresponds to the contact name in the Wing 
Lee transaction documentation.  As discussed further in reftel D, 
Wing Lee is related to a range of additional Hong Kong and mainland 
companies. 
 
5.  The Rochester End Use/Ultimate Consignee Statement, purportedly 
completed by the end-user of the items lists Galaxy Elec. Technic 
Limited as the end user of the items.  The end use is listed as 
medical devices (CT and MRI).  According to the Hong Kong Companies 
Registry, Galaxy Elec. Technic Limited has been in existence since 
1998.  Its paid up share capital is the Hong Kong equivalent of USD 
1250.  Hong Kong identity card holders, Chong, Min Min (H340781(2) 
and Tsui, Kin Chit (H340780(4) are listed as directors.  A web 
search for this company reveals that it appears to sell DVD players. 
 In addition, a range of companies use this same address. 
Commercial Assistant Carrie Chan reached Mr. Tsui, a representative 
of Galaxy, by phone.  Mr. Tsui stated that Galaxy did not order 
these items from Share but they were told to receive the item on 
Share's behalf.  Ultimately, according to this representative, the 
items never arrived. 
 
6.  Based on the information noted above, ECO believes that Share is 
an unsuitable recipient of U.S. origin controlled technology.  ECO 
recommends that BIS reach out to Rochester to determine what 
information it had on hand when it shipped the items.  Further, ECO 
requests that OEA confirm the 3A001 classification of the shipment 
so that ECO may reach out to Hong Kong TID concerning a potential 
violation of Hong Kong's export control rules in connection with 
this shipment.  Finally, ECO recommends that Share be added to the 
BIS Unverified List and/or Entities List.
