As we move away from the racist 'White Australia' migration policy, and embrace a broad based multicultural policy it is to be expected that the growth of immigration would be from nationalities who were previously excluded, coming off a very low base Indian and Chinese being but two. The appeal of Australia as a destination for migrants has changed, we are no longer the five star location that once appealed to the Europeans, now we struggle to entice skilled and well off immigrants. Another advantage of both Indian and Chinese migrants is they tend to be under represented in crime stats, whereas people from New Zealand and even native born Australians can be high on the list of criminal representation.

What should be of greater concern is the way in which the Coalition has opened the flood gates to illegal immigrants entering by air. The figure stands at over 100,000 since they came to power in 2013.

I went shopping in Chatswood yesterday and stood around an atrium watching people come and go. By my count 7 in 10 persons were Chinese. I have been told that in Hurstville it is as high as 9 in 10. When you travel on public transport the figure is about 1 in 2, probably because most of the people working and going shopping nowadays are predominantly Chinese.

I predicted a long time ago that Sydney would become Australia's first Chinese city and it looks like I'm going to be proven correct.

I was in the inner eastern suburbs the other day and noticed that some of the street name signs are now being displayed in English with Chinese equivalent under it.

Increasing the number of cashed up Chinese in Australia is a key element in ScuMo's economic policy aimed at keeping the Australian economy afloat. Also with the Chinese now representing the higher classes in Sydney society they will be more likely to vote Liberal.

All the signs are there that Australia has a Chinese future, especially Sydney.

We're moving towards an even more racist ideological migration policy. Those in the top seats have already successfully introduced the dumbing-down among those they want to overthrow.
But, as always, sense will prevail !

Hi Mr O, as the Old Man said to me many years ago, "China owes Australia nothing". Why, when the Chinese were desperate for help in years past, famine, flood and war ravaged China, "Whitey" simply shrugged his shoulders and said; "Oh well, that's how God controls the worlds population." So considering everything Australians might be well down the Chinese list of prioritises.

"Whitey" simply shrugged his shoulders
Paul1405,
Are you sure you didn't just pull this one out of an old Leftie's hat ? China, as far as I'm aware, has a long tradition to close itself to outside influences until it's own policies turned it into one mega sweat shop for greedy outsiders & particularly Union sabotaged Australian industries.

individual,

You were going to get back to me to tell me why it is that you know about all of those Arts things like history, anthropology, sociology, archaeology, philosophy, etc.
