For you to say 'unless all those Chinese tourists can find only Chinese-owned shops, accommodation and tourist spots in Sydney, then how on earth will they not spend money for the Australian economy's good?' indicates to me that you are from outside of Sydney.
At present, Chinese general businesses like shops, franchises, etc practically dominate Sydney and the Chinese have being buying up almost every new apartment complex for the past ten years as investment properties. Believe me when I say that Chinese business will absolutely dominate the Chinese-related tourist side of Baird's holiday resort and all the profits will be channeled back to China. If you ever visit Sydney you will notice that a lot of Chinese operated small businesses a trading on a cash only basis, employing only Chinese workers, and I've heard a rumour that their workers are being paid cash in hand. In other words, no benefits will trickle down into the Australian community.
