4:30 AM -- Here's a warning for anyone tempted to participate in dodgy deals in China: Zhang Chunjiang, a former deputy general manager at China Mobile Ltd. (NYSE: CHL), has received a suspended death sentence after being found guilty of accepting multiple bribes between 1994 and 2009 to the value of around US$1.15 million, reports China Daily.

The moral of the story is, just say "No," whatever the country.
