And the quote that is on there, ``Trie bragged on NBC that he could continue to hide out in Asia for 10 years. They will never find me.'' He said. His sister today said that she talks to him when she needs to; that she had not had a direct conversation, but that there had been a discussion that when the statute of limitation runs out, he will come back. And that seems to be the other mark of the way things are going. It is why this investigation is so hard. We will stay at this, but we could really use some help from the other side, rather than trying to say everybody does it, to get to the bottom of this. One last point that came up today. Miss Foung said that she felt that Asian citizens had a right to speak out and they were being picked on. My comment to her was very simple. This has been an incredible abuse of Asian Americans. Because what we have seen, for example, in the case of her brother putting approximately a half million dollars of illegal money, it looks like, in all cases certainly laundered money if not illegal foreign money into this, that he has a right to speak up.
