Curriculum Vitae - Mr Interface
Everything you need to know about Wang is in this CV helpfully posted by his current employer, Duke - though pretty sure Linfa wrote it himself (a couple of typos Linfa- but otherwise excellent). His journey from East China Normal University to the New Global Normal Universe - it’s all there.
I’d love to say i had a network of deepthroats for sources - but it’s not like that. Often enough - the best stuff is on the subject's own website - or in puff-piece interviews they give to enabling media platforms. Vanity is their great undoing. Making their own publicity - fervently believing it, preaching it …
Thereby leaving a trail of incrimination. Thanks!
CURICULLUM VITAE (sic)
Linfa (Lin-Fa) Wang
EMPLOYMENT AND RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
2012.7-present: Director and Professor, Program in Emerging Infectious Diseases, Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School, Singapore
1990-2015: CSIRO, (Commonwealth Science & Industrial Research Organisation).
including:
2008-2015: Science Leader, CSIRO Australian Animal Health Laboratory
He's only had those two jobs - held them simultaneously from 2012-15. He's no fly-by-nighter.
ACADEMIC QUALIFICATIONS
January 1982-1986: B.S. (Honour) Biology (Biochemistry), East China Normal University
June, 1986 - 1989: Ph.D. Biochemistry (Molecular Biology), University of California, Davis
1981-1982: Linfa won Outstanding Undergraduate Award, East China Normal University, top notch uni in a country of 1.3 billion. Then a scholarship to UC Davis. So, unlike Farrar or Daszak for instance, Linfa is genuinely smart - as a geneticist at least. Pretty smart at keeping in the shadows as well. You can have all the FOI emails you like, i'll be surprised if you catch Linfa saying anything self-incriminatory - not like the other idiots - your Andersens, Garrys, Lipkins, Holmess, Daszaks etc
Funnily enough, he didn’t want to study biology:
Science: As a child growing up in Shanghai during the Cultural Revolution, Wang would listen to Mao Zedong's speeches through a loudspeaker in kindergarten. "I was thinking: ‘My God … how does his voice transfer from Beijing to Shanghai?'" Electrical engineering became his passion.
Inspired to study electrical-engineering by listening to Mao speeches on the public brainwashing system in kindergarten. Thinking My God… not at the content of the speeches (give him a break - he was 5-6 ), but the incredibleness of live broadcasting - the simultaneous oneness of it. Developing that into a passion as a brilliant young student.
I bet Linfa would have been great at electrical-engineering - but that’s not quite how it works in the CCP universe.
He’d been identified as super-smart - his guardians had a field in mind for him deemed a higher priority:
Science: But after getting into the prestigious East China Normal University, Wang was dismayed when the faculty assigned him to study biology.
Linfa: I thought, ‘I don't like plants, I don't like animals.' Going to a renowned university felt like going to heaven but the wrong door of heaven, basically, because I went to a biology department.
The wrong door of heaven. The wrong door to heaven is ... hell? Is that what happened? The world, through the agency of Linfa Wang, had a Sliding Doors moment - where humanity went through the wrong door?
Science: Secretly listening to Voice of America, Wang eventually became so proficient at English that he was chosen for a scholarship to study abroad.
Science is writing this as a puff-piece for Linfa - which is funny - coz i’m reading it as evidence of someone groomed from childhood by the CCP, inserted into UC Davis, then CSIRO Australia,Australia - where he invents bat viruses, then Duke Singapore.viruses.
That makes Linfa one of The Originals. TheIn 1979, Deng Xiaoping re-invented/expanded the United Front Work Dept'sDept scio-securityto academiainclude infiltration programoperations overseas. The simple, long-term goal was launchedto influence the influencers - especially in academic institutions. This is the earlyexact 80's.time that Linfa was entering university in China, where he was groomed for an overseas posting at UC Davis upon graduating. He was then assigned to Australia in 1990, where, over the next 25 years, he succeeded in rising to the top of CSIRO.
One thing that maybe western thinking doesn't get about Chinese thinking is the long game ...
surround the city with country. the country
InInitially employed with great success in the civil war, it was repurposed to slowly, methodical infiltrate bio-security global institutions (amongst others). China's control of WHO is the obvious example.
It's important to remember, in China, Sun TzuTzu's Art of War is not some fleeting pop-psychology thing trending on Twitter - Tzu's philosophy is a core pillar of Chinese thought-culture. Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.
In a war, gradually infiltrate the system you wish to influence - don't go for the shock n awe big-prize at the start - take your time. If you do it right, you will win control without a shot being fired.
Wang Linfa was an original graduate direct into this fledgling UFWD academia program. A contemporary of George Gao,Gao theywas slightly later. They both proved to be legendary students.
