China is a creeping menace to countries which do not watch out. Disguised as aid it really is a quid pro quo strategy. I give you something but you must give me something in return. Hopefully it will not be a country’s sovereignty. Australia watch out!

Indeed accepting donations from China is only a small sign for bigger problems in the Australian political system. Nice read.

China is very corrupt even by their own standard. Chinese communist party like all communist parties before it, persue anti freedom, anti democracy and un-peaceful agenda. Australia must stay vigilant to safeguard our system and way of life. As Chinese myself fled china, I know there is a powerful desire in china to make other nations bow down to china. This is their idea of being respected. Very twisted view but Australia should be aware of that destructive power that with china rising, it only becomes more destructive and far reaching.
