Papua Nuigineans could hardly be described as sophisticated and on the ball when it comes to the Chinese threat, thanks to their expectation of handouts. The quicker our government starts investing in missiles the better. PNG can be expected to start biting the hand that has been feeding it since it gained "independence" from Australia.

But, Australia also has the drawback of its own government being like rabbits caught in a spotlight when it comes to the clear and present danger of Chinese Communism as it inches not so slowly, but surely, towards us. The Coalition hasn't shown much interest in China's illegal take over of the South China Sea - which should be a top priority for us - and it is unlikely to be much different in regard to China being even closer to us in PNG. The mad panic Australian politicians have displayed in the face of the China virus is a fair indication of what we can expect when they are faced with inevitable further threats of a more direct kind from China.

Australia should use Huawei as part of its further Asianisation program.

Allowing Huawei uncontrolled operation in Australia will supplement Asianisation through Multiculturalism to achieve a fully Asianised Australia.

Agree!

AUSTRALIAN TAXPAYER MONEY FOR BRIBES TO PNG POLITICIANS

Should Australia get into a bidding war with China knowing that 10-20% of Australian taxpayer money will go into BRIBES for PNGers.

PNG is one of the most corrupt countries in the world - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_Perceptions_Index#2012%E2%80%932019

Economic Distortion A. - Frequently corrupt Australian politicians use Australian taxpayer money to subsidise Australian companies to bid for corrupt PNG Government companies.

Economic Distortion B. PNG politicians, officials and businessmen in total demand 10%-20% in BRIBES from any sale process.

If only the Goaf & Co had a week's foresight, PNG would be in much better situation as would Australia !
