    China will continue to take advantage of Australia’s passivity in the Pacific. Just look at what it’s done in Vanuatu.https://trib.al/3f9TauP

        The @ABCaustralia mgt shut down @radioaustralia #shortwave services last year, expect people in poverty to have smart phones and a 4G plan in a rainforest. Since, China has expanded its shortwave service into the Pacific. There was a Senate inquiry, what is the result, nothing?

        Turnbull slashed foreign aid to dog whistle to the white supremacists and so Australia pays for his racism with our national security now compromised.

        Who cares about Vanuatu when Chinese investors buy our land, farms and real estate?

        China is the biggest threat to global economy and therefore global peace. Unity of other nations to keep China under control is very important
