One of the largest Chinese telecoms is facing a major lawsuit. China Mobile Communications Group Shandong, Ltd. is allegedly owned by-and-large, by a French investor. Here's a look at the controversy it's brewing.
STORY:

When Wanboa Sun discovered that China Mobile Communications Group Shandong Limited was a foreign-funded enterprise, he sued the company. He has gotten no response from CCP officials so far.

"I find that the defendant provided a copy of his business license. It shows that it's a wholly foreign-owned enterprise based in the British Virgin Islands. The investor is a Frenchman by the name of Walker. Because foreign-invested enterprises cannot be sole proprietors of telecommunications business in China, I questioned that point in court. But the judge didn't come to any conclusion and the defendant remained silent."
Sun says China Mobile may be registered abroad in order to escape paying taxes in China.

"I reported to the executive authorities about the defendant's illegal operation, but got no answer; then I sued the defendant's illegal operation in court, but the court was also partial to them. The Chinese government's departments and courts are all protecting a foreign enterprise's behavior of deceiving the Chinese people."
According to a pre-2008 cabinet order, the amount of foreign capital put into China's telecommunications industry is not allowed to exceed 49 percent.
