China's government controlled media reported Wednesday that Mr. Dong has been spying for Taiwan since 1990 and says most of his activities were allegedly conducted while he lived in the United States.

Chinese newspapers claim 52-year-old David Dong also helped Taiwanese lobbyists court American politicians in Washington.

For his espionage work Mr. Dong supposedly received a quarter million dollar house in the United States and over $3,000 a month in cash.
