On July 17, Devillers reportedly left Cambodia for China to help its investigation into Bo and his wife Gu Kailai. The Cambodian National Police Deputy Chief told the AFP that Devillers, detained in mid-June, was released this Monday, and flew to China on a Shanghai-bound flight on Tuesday. The Cambodian police's arrest and release of Devillers were all done at the request of the CCP regime, according to a Radio France Internationale news report. Patrick Devillers, 52, reportedly had close ties to Gu Kailai, and both had business collaborations. China is now conducting probes in whether Devillers helped Gu in buying properties and laundering money overseas. After Devillers was detained in the Cambodia, the Beijing regime requested his extradition to China. "New Political Star"Surfaced in CCP's Leadership Reshuffle As the CCP's 18th Congress nears, varied versions of rumors have flown around about the CCP's new leadership team. A few days ago, media reported that a "refreshing" team of CCP leaders would be generated at the party congress. On July 18, Reuters quoted sources as saying that Li Zhanshu, former CCP chief of Guizhou Province, is very likely to fill an important post. "Li Zhanshu is a new political star," said the informed source. According to the BBC's Chinese version, two unnamed sources told Reuters reporters that 61-year-old Li Zhanshu is a hot candidate for General Office of the CCP Central Committee. Li was said to be closely linked to Hu Jintao and Xi Jinping, deemed acceptable by both factions of Hu and of Xi. Another source revealed that Li Zhanshu may be named as the CCP's Organization Minister, in charge of the Party cadres'political careers. CCP's Blacklist: A Buying Guide in Hong Kong Book Fair The 23rd Hong Kong Book Fair opened its doors on July 18, with 2,000 book stalls set up by 530+ publishers from 20+ countries. The organizers expected to beat last year's attendance of 950,000 people. As many as 350 cultural events are scheduled to be launched during the period of the fair. The books banned in mainland China are the true spotlight attracting a great many mainland tourists. Publishers expect the books banned in China and books on political-satire to be the top sellers. A list of banned book authors in China has recently circulated the internet. Reportedly it may serve as a Book-Buying Guide in the fair. This "Anti-Porn & Vice Blacklist" prepared by the CCP authorities, ranked dozens of"sensitive"individuals and publishers. The name list includes Zeng Jinyan, Yang Jianli, Xu Youyu, Han Dongfang, and Wang Dan among others. Most of the banned publishers are from Hong Kong. The banned books cover "Save For the Future"-Volume II by Beijing artist Yang Weidong; "Deity Ai: A Biography about Ai Weiwei" by Du Bin; "15 Lectures on the History of the People's Republic of China" by Wang Dan, and more. The Blacklist was reported to be issued by the regime prior to this June 4th, and is being continuously updated. 《神韵》2011世界巡演新亮点 http://www.ShenYunPerformingArts.org/
