Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed due to a finding of fraud and material misrepresentation. The petitioner submitted conflicting award certificates, purporting to be from the 'Third Art and Cultural Festival in Chengdu City' but dated six years apart (1991 and 1997). When challenged and requested to provide the original documents, the petitioner failed to do so, which affirmed the finding of fraud and led to the dismissal.
