Does our country have no back bone anymore? Selling our souls to the ccp which are currently committing genocide to the uyghur people. You can not become filthy rich in china unless you have ties to china’s ccp party
​
Edit: seems a like a ccp shill has reported this comment
Every country does this, it’s not really surprising.
Are they trying to escape the CPP I wonder?
No surprise as thousands of Chinese are bringing their wealth to Ireland, USA, Canada, NZ, Australia, London etc as a failsafe if China gets more unstable or the winnie Xi pooh decides to do a purge.
I saw that. I don’t like it.
Have they learned nothing from the London experience where they let they let in all the Russian oligarchs?
We give out passports far too easily in general
I thought Chinese citizens can only have one passport.
Look at oz and property issues thanks to the chinese….
Locals get bought out constantly..
One of the avenues they can invest in is REITs. I wonder how much has been put in.
I for one welcome our new overlords
Helen McCenTeaTowel at it again trying to wreck the country by allowing the largest applications ever in 2022 to go ahead
What could go wrong with influential people from a Communist state that have millions of Muslims in concentration camps coming here. We should be restricting them to one home here for personal use and that’s that no renting.
Some one Is going to open a Chinese called The Golden Visa!
On of them bought an entire island. Is buying a mansion on the mainland near it and a barge to bring his cars back and forth.
Clearly something incredibly dodge going on and you only need to look at Australian or Canadian housing market to see the effect it will have left unchecked.
You can buy a visa and sometimes citizenship for most countries in the world if you have enough money.
Are we that stuck for money? If your millionaire in China I would presume your up the CCP’s hole!
Not just Chinese. We allow oligarchs of all nationalities to buy Irish residency. Our passports are very valuable due to the amount of countries it can access.
Disgraceful to be honest but expected from FG who worship money above all else.
Call me cynical, but when I read about the minimum investment I instantly thought of them buying up property. Most of them likely won’t but some definitely will.
Now multiple billionaires promised to build up multistory apartment complexes in each major county and sell them off, I actually support it to some degree but it’s more than likely some dodgy shit
Immigrated to Canada where the Chinese absolutely crucified the real estate market. Brace yourselves, if you think you have a housing crisis now, you have no idea what adding 1,500 wealthy Chinese will do. I’d encourage you to fact check me here to truly understand the scale.
I wonder how much china money is involved in The rental sector. I know Irish property developer websites that have English/Chinese language options in their menu.
>With the majority granted in the past five years
And look no further as to one of the main reasons why the housing crisis accelerated so badly.
Same thing happened out here in Australia.
Several houses in Crumlin of all places have been sold to Chinese investors under this scheme. One property agency specialises in it.
Most are empty, or appear empty but are actually loaded to the gills with vulnerable tenants from overseas.
dont let Ireland suffer the same fate as Vancouver!
Sure we have that chinese property shop on oconnell street , were too late and theyve done it to hide their embezzled gains back home
Why don’t they live in china? China says it’s better than everyone else but people leave there if they can afford it
Russia / china are best friends, terrorist states and both have people in countries all around the world violating sovereignty to sow discord, spy and steal. They also don’t allow any foreign media there yet they are able to spread their propaganda on thousands of their state owned bullshit media all around the world while propping up other terror states like Iran, North Korea, Myanmar etc
Such a terrible Minister of Justice, is there anybody with a brain in government?
Wouldnt it be great to have a chinese landlord? Wouldn’t it be lovely for some unaccountable fuckhead on the other side of the planet owning your entire block? Spiking your rent? That’d be amazing. I think.
our goverment are happy to allow ordinary people to struggle to buy their own home. Favoring Investors over citizens needs has been a pretty prevalent theme in irish politicis for over 15 years now. It just intensified when fine geal took the charge
Ask them what they think about the Uyghur situation, then sit back and watch them become furious and deny anything is happening. You can show them actual footage of human rights abuse in China and they all deny it.
And here’s what you can expect once they start buying up properties in your housing crisis. They only rent to other Chinese, never the locals, not even Irish born Chinese. They start Chinese publications and that’s where they list their rental properties, so that no Irish person ever even sees it’s up for rent. They will sell houses using only a Chinese real estate agent. They rent properties only using a Chinese property manager. They will only hire Chinese tradespeople to come to their house and their rental houses. They and their tenants will have a large dog and confine it indoors and barely bother to take it for a walk and if they do, it’s only about a 5 minute walk, no matter what the breed.
They will live in China, but in Ireland. They do it everywhere they go.
If you are a victim of a crime and they know who the perpetrator is, they will never give evidence and it’s not because they are scared of police, it’s because they only help people from China. If you are the victim of a crime and enter their place of business asking for help and to use their phone to call the police, they may or may not coldly, or even angrily, turn you away, unless you are from China.
If they have a business and need new staff, they will only hire someone from China (and I don’t mean for a Chinese takeaway or restaurant where they makes sense, I mean just any type of business at all). If they work in the corporate sector in a hiring position, they will only hire someone from China, but if no one from China applies, they’ll go with some other South East Asian instead. I’ve been to job interviews in the corporate sector and walked through a department of 20 people, all of them Chinese and the person interviewing me is Chinese, yet the company is NZ or Australian owned. When I rang to speak to the person who started in this new job, about a month after my interview, just out to check, guess which race got the job? This happens all the time.
Yours sincerely, Auckland, NZ.
Locals in Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital, really suffering from international money flooding in buying up homes. English and Chinese mainly.
