Mr O,
Are we all to blame if we like Chinese food, or go to $2.00 shops, or buy cars that are made in China? Even many of our clothes, and footwear, not to mention - residential developments that are springing up everywhere. Why on earth should the Chinese invade us? They're already controlling a large part of our economy. Perhaps what you should be doing instead of posting here is contacting Canberra regarding your concerns.

Alright, which one of you lot left his or her compass, maps and other assorted spy paraphernalia lying around in Beijing.
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-06-29/chinese-state-media-says-australia-is-stepping-up-spy-activities/12402032 You can pick it up at the Beijing Spy Prison next time you are there. And you should hurry because http://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-06-30/china-step-up-attacks-on-australia-accuses-government-of-spying/12405842 That's right, this is only the start of worse things to come.

Mr O,
So, instead of contacting Canberra to air your concerns about the Chinese you said you were going to contact - Gladys Liu or Andrew Forrest instead. No. in that case you'd be better off contacting: Ambassador Cheng Jingye Embassy of the People's Republic of China 15 Coronation Drive Yarralumla ACT 2600 Tel: (02) 6228-3998 Or your local Chinese take-away. Your choice. Posted by Foxy, Tuesday, 30 June 2020 3:52:09 PM

Foxy,
Good suggestion because I have heard that Ambassador Cheng Jingye is not as dim as he sims. And I promise not to tell him that it is your spy paraphernalia they confiscated in Beijing and that your real name is Foxy Mata Hari. Your secrets are safe with me.

It's a risky business predicting any future at
the best of times of course, but I am hopeful
that with China - industrialisation and modernisation
will bring about political change as well.
My parents fled from a totalitarian regime - the
Soviet Union. So I can understand your fears.
But I don't share them.
I have trust in our government to make the
right decisions concerning our nation
