the chinese family of languages is tonal and any translation of a foreign name is mainly based on homophonic transliteration

based on dis rule alone there will most certainly be more than 1 character to choose for every syllable in a foreign word cos many characters have close or similar sounding tones

wat the lipoter was insinuating was whether china changed the characters used in rubio's name to wat was worded in the sanctions document so as to technically skirt the sanctions

and the answer to dat is most certainly no because they r sanctioning the person, not the name (or how it's written)

if jho low changed his name to "jo loh" or "jho lo", his ass would still b wanted

I’ve seen this question being raised by multiple analysts, so it’s not a stupid question. See they avoided answering the question.
