Dear David and Joe,

It would be terrible to treat Australians of Chinese origin differently than other Australians. However, we do already treat Australians differently based on their potential exposure to COVID-19.

Innocent healthy Australians are being locked up and suffer as we speak because they had contact with infected people. This is very painful.

As much as we like to treat everyone equally and love our Chinese brothers and sisters, the sad truth is that those who had close contact with CCP propaganda, coercion and surveillance are overwhelmingly likely to be of Chinese origins. Anyone is at risk of catching COVID-19, but their situation is more akin to those living in Melbourne's public-housing high-rise towers. Worse even, this nightmarish risk does not go away after 14 days.

It is extremely painful and difficult to decide where to draw the line, but one thing is certain: the response must include strong measures of testing, contact-tracing and quarantine.

Foul-Mouth and david f,

What do you think about this?

I reckon they should enrol in a masters degree in a Victorian uni migrant processing program which will get them a temporary residency visa and then get a job after graduating with a Chinese owned company operating in Australia in order to qualify for a permanent residency visa.

What would you suggest?
