An investor furious over fraud she allegedly suffered in China placed a front-page ad in a major Taiwan paper Monday to address her grievances to Chinese President Hu Jintao.
The owner of a construction materials company, who identified herself only by her surname Peng, said in the United Daily News advertisement that her Chinese partner stole 360,000 US dollars from her in early 2007.
When Peng asked her partner to return the money, the partner threatened to kill her, according to the ad, which took up half a broadsheet page in the mass-circulation paper.
"China, are you really the motherland? Why is the country so full of wolves? Where is justice?" Peng said in the ad, which was also addressed to Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao.
Peng, who is based in San Francisco, could not be reached through the phone number she left in the ad.
According to the United Daily News, the ad cost Peng at least one million Taiwan dollars (31,000 US dollars).
