    Iraqi oil expert Ahmed Saddam said, "There are 7 major Chinese companies that have won work contracts in large geographical areas, such as the "Cinooc" company, which invested in the field of oil exploration in a geographical area estimated at about 6,500 square kilometers, including 5 governorates in the center and south."
     
    Other companies, such as Jinhua and Anton, are distributed in governorates such as Muthanna and Nasiriyah, and other geographical areas, according to Saddam.

    Al-Shammari stated that “there is a significant and clear delay in implementing Chinese companies’ projects in Iraq, as implementation falls on the shoulders of the Iraqis, who are waiting for Chinese funding,” noting that “the funding does not arrive in some cases, as happened in the school construction project.”
     
    He added, "Iraq needs to build about 12,000 schools, and so far the Chinese project has not been implemented."[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Despite the passage of sufficient time, he stressed that "there is tax evasion among a number of Chinese companies in[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Worth $180 million.

    Many of China's major oil and gas companies are affiliated with entities that belong to the Chinese military complex, including some of the recent licensing awards in Iraq, such as Jinhua Oil, a subsidiary of Norinco Group, a major contractor for China's Ministry of Defense.
     
    The head of the department says[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]“Norinco Group is in fact a military company and a branch of the Chinese military, and it does a lot of arms sales and trade, and has previously engaged in oil purchases and arms trade with Iran,” says Michel Meaden of the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies.
     
    “The heads of the three major companies, PetroChina, Sinopec and CNOOC, are essentially employees of the Chinese Communist Party, appointed by the party, which is the largest shareholder in these companies, and their futures are largely tied to their political and commercial achievements inside and outside China,” she continued, noting that “these Chinese companies have been involved in ‘corruption’ in business deals with other countries, such as Angola, adding, ‘A lot of money was spent but the assets did not work well, or the money went into the pockets of the corrupt. ’”
