  these ships seldom, or ever, visit a port. They're re-supplied, refuelled, re-crewed and transhipped (unloaded) at sea. The owners and crews of these floating deathtraps don't seem to do any basic maintenance, apart from keeping the engine and winches running.

Hacker Uncovers Chinese Olympic Fraud

It’s not China so much as the IOC. The IOC apparently is uninterested in pursuing such issues, preferring to take the word of the Host.
The USSR/East Block countries did some interesting bending of the rules years back and very little happened to any of them.
So cheating will only be enforced against athletes who don’t have direct Government backing.

This is typical of how the IOC has bowed very low to China in every way, regarding these Olympics. From lax to a lack of, enforcement of even the mildest of prerequisites China agreed to in order to secure Beijing as the host city, to staying mum while China stops athletes from competing based on their politcal beliefs, the IOC have shown what they are really about: the money!
