Lol Mr Opinion!
I forgot your fascination/paranoia with all things Chinese is sometimes overtaken by your fixation on engineers.
I don't feel the need to discuss my extensive education with you at all.

The Chinese Australians are as diverse a group as any other groups of Australians and are no more likely to support the 'Old Country' than any others. To think otherwise is not very bright....for a so called engineer...

Dear Suseonline,

I bet your education is a lot better than Aidan's glorified ditch digger degree.

There is of course a very big moral question connected with the arguments about the conflict in the South China Sea:

Should Australia be associated with any party that is acting belligerently towards others?

China is definitely looking for a fight. It will not negotiate on its claims over the South China Sea and it will not budge from that position. It will not obey a UN resolution to de-militarise (when it is handed down) and withdraw from the South China Sea. It is acting aggressively towards the smaller nations around the SCS with the intention of depriving those nations of access to the huge amounts of oil and gas reserves.

If Australia refuses to support the US and continues to turn a blind eye to China's annexation of the South China Sea it will be acting with immorality. In so doing it will be lowering itself in the eyes of democratic nations and will lose political support, especially the US.

Is this how we want to be seen by the democratic nations of the world? Just another lackey of the Chinese hegemon: a country whose politicians and business leaders will trade off their people's heritage for a bagful for fake $40K Rolexes.

The Chinese activists who are taking China's side in this,
are showing divided loyalty.

That is the whole problem with multiculturalism.

No. The whole problem is the total naivety of the multicultural idea and the chimpanzees who came up with it. If any of us went to one of the barbaric countries these interlopers come from, we wouldn't be able to change our culture; neither can the Chinese or or any other race not similar to ours. These Chinese have not divided their loyalty; their loyalty to communist China and dictatorship is still strong. They have no loyalty to Australia, and they never will. The only immigrants allowed here should be people like us. East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall meet

Unlike China with whom Australia has never had a quarrel, America has previously dragged us into two unjustified crazy Asian wars, in Korea and Vietnam. Lets hope Australia for once, remains neutral and is not influenced by the conservative stupidity that the Liberal Party is well known for, No more should Australia support US wars of aggression throughout the world.
