...White House was not pleased that Trie had appeared as yet another dubious character in the drama just when disclosures about zealous fund raiser John Huang's activities seemed to be taking a holiday break. Trie, 48, has played a small but supporting role in Clinton's life for more than a decade. The two men met when Trie ran a Chinese restaurant located near the Capitol in Little Rock named Fu Lin (in Chinese, it can mean "enrich your neighbor"). Clinton became a regular at Fu Lin, which hosted an unusually generous luncheon buffet. A friendship sprouted, and Clinton...
...Bill Clinton The President went over the top Down Under. At a press conference in Canberra, Australia, last month, Clinton was asked about the allegations of illegal campaign contributions solicited by former Democratic party fund raiser John Huang. The Chief Executive responded, "One of the things I would urge you to do--remembering Mr. Richard Jewell in Atlanta... we ought to just get the facts out, and they should be reported." Perhaps the President and Jewell, whose life was ruined through no fault of his own, can get together in Atlanta and empathize over slaw dogs at the Varsity...

When word got out that his new chief investigator, David Bossie, had procured the Commerce Department phone logs of John Huang, the former Democratic fund raiser accused of impropriety, and then leaked them to the press, Burton publicly rebuked the aide and issued a warning to his staff that anyone releasing information without his permission would be summarily fired...
...White House spin doctors to dismiss the committee's work as partisan bilge. To prevent that, Burton says, he won't rush to hold hearings on the campaign-finance scandal but will instead spend the next few months investigating. By then he plans to have enough information to make Huang and others squirm at the witness table. If Burton remains true to his new form, the White House could be in for an unpleasant year...
...Jewish sentiment in Nazi Germany when Jewish people were successful in business. Today Asians are a success story. Do people applaud President Clinton for improving foreign trade with Asia? No, blinded by jealousy, they complain that it is the Asian Americans who are reaping the wealth. What have John Huang and the Lippo Group done that is so bad? They hired American expertise to build the much needed infrastructure for new towns in Indonesia. Do Americans say thank you for your business? No, they paste up photographs of Huang as if he were a convicted criminal. CARMEN HARTONO Oakland, California...
