Return the loot, or you will pay!
KUNGFU actor Jackie Chan isn't the first person to voice outrage over the sale of looted art, but he may very well be the most intimidating. "This has made me really angry," Chan said last week, criticizing the recent auction of rat and rabbit bronzes that once stood in Beijing's Old Summer Palace.
On Monday, the buyer of the two relics, which were each auctioned off for 14 million euros (122 million yuan), vowed he would not pay for them. "This money cannot be paid," said the Chinese bidder Cai Mingchao, a collection advisor at China's National Treasures Fund. "Every Chinese would have liked to do like this, and I'm honored to have had the chance to make the bid."
