Michael Milken's Cozying Up to Third World Government Related Creeps

Earlier today, I reported on some of the disgusting characters that are speaking at this year's Michael Milken Conference. Tony Blair, Janet Napolitano and Hank Paulson are among the names I mentioned. (SEE: The Milken Global Conference Gets More and More Cozy With Government Operatives Every Year)

But the ugliness of the conference goes well beyond the high-profile first world names. Speakers also include a number of third world government officials, and those close to third world officials, from countries known for often very thuggish behavior by government officials.

Is this really the kind of legacy Milken wants to leave, a legacy of cozying up to these third world characters?

Among those speaking at this year's conference are:

Akinwumi Adesina  Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Nigeria

Clare Akamanzi  Chief Operating Officer, Rwanda Development Board

H.E. Paul Kagame  President of the Republic of Rwanda

Winston Set Aung  Vice Governor, Central Bank of Myanmar

Jigyel Ugyen Wangchuck  Prince of Bhutan; Global Ambassador to The King's Challenge

Milken was once thrown in jail by the U.S. government, now he is cozying up to global government officials, often in countries where government abuses of the people are legendary. Sad.
