Youtube comments of Robert A (@RobertAmer).

  1. As a senior Accountant for most of my life, this is B.S. Accountants do not make 6 billion dollar errors!
    302
  2. 1,026 Marines of which 159 were officers. Interestingly, Elensky claims they have joined another brigade, not surrendered, lol. Another interesting point, Elensky is claiming over 20,000 civilians killed, when the official figures given by the UN is 1,862, an amazing disparity.
    254
  3. An after the fact speech by Zelensky. Most in Azovstal feel betrayed and left for dead by their Kyiv government. Some have posted expletive thoughts about this on the internet. Betrayed and abandoned!
    227
  4. To correct the narrative. China has never said it would use force against Taiwan, except in the instance of external meddling, attempting to create a separate state. China has on each and every ocassion in its speeches by its leadership, that it wants and aims for peaceful unification.
    199
  5. It took the US more then 3 months to concoct a story about 46 US military Bio Labs in Ukraine. Anyone who accepts this needs to think again, because they were not funded by the US CDC, but instead funded by the US military, which says it all.
    196
  6. This dog was in the home of an infected person, and of course it breathed in small particals of virus, which again of course would be picked up on a nasal swab. However, there was no indication that the dog waa suffering from COVID19. All this really proves is that dogs can pick up the virus in the same way as humans, by breathing as we all do. I would have thought that was obvious. This story seems to be about semantics. There was no underlying evidence of the dog being infected, except that it had particals of the virus in its system.
    196
  7. Ah, you can travel up and down every line, as long as you do not exit the station. In other words, return back to the departure station, having travelled up and down every station, without exiting.
    168
  8. John Mearsheimer is very much worth listening to. He focuses on the facts. He has studied soviet region geopolitics for over thirty years, and has no fears of criticizing his own nation.
    146
  9. White sleeve bands are to identify people, IFF, internationally known as "Identification, Friend or Foe". The residents in the area were asked to wear these white armbands to safeguard themselves from being shot at by Russian Military personnel.
    119
  10. Oh, and for all those conspiracy theorists, Jack Ma donated 50 million RMB as well as 100 million RMB from Alibaba.
    118
  11. I am glad to hear someone speak honestly and openly, in spite of the fear mongering incited by our politicians. The reality is we have the blind leading the blind.
    109
  12. When is a plan not a plan? When it is spoken by our propaganda leader! Always when criticized he says, i reject that.
    106
  13. I have called for this Royal Commission for a long time. All news reporting should be enlightening to the public of factual information, without opinion. As has been said, some news reporting organizations are behaving like political parties.
    94
  14. It would be interesting to see how some countries in support of the G7 handle this, as many will have laws in respect to Price Fixing, including pricing collusion. It is potentially setting a new precedent, so could have much greater ramifications.
    92
  15. Payment and settlement of accounts for gas are dealt with in accordance with international accounting standards, which cannot be overruled by sanctions, which are totally irrelevant. So these countries can make any statements they like, but finalization will be confirmed by the accountants, not the politicians.
    91
  16. Those in Lviv and Kyiv have no idea what the reality of the situation is in Mariupol.
    84
  17. Pork prices are currently at the bottom, so there will be increases due to seasonal conditions. The prices however are currently extremely low.
    82
  18. Yes Jason, you were ripped off by the woman selling pineapple. It was definitely a foreign tourist price.
    77
  19. Contrary to popular world opinion, to be vaccinated or not vaccinated is still the choice of the individual in China. A large proportion of elderly people have a fear of vaccines, which is the greatest hurdle to overcome. They cannot and will not be forced to be vaccinated, thus the extreme measures to protect them. Only education about vaccination may help, but is it too late?
    70
  20. The simple reply to journalists is, "you already know that answer, ask me something new".
    69
  21. So much for lying at the news onference. "Yes, ALL IS UNDER CONTROL!". LOL
    66
  22. To be clear, Australia does not dispute the legitimacy of these two ships sailing through these waters, as they have every right under international law in international waters. The question asked was about the use of military grade laser equipment, aimed at the RAAF aircraft. On the other side of the coin, what was this aircraft doing in the vicinity of these ships, if it was on a supposed training sortie. Undoubtedly dropping sonar buoys to check for submarine activity, being a guise for spying on these ships. After all, it was fully fitted with up to date high tech electronic surveillance equipment. Australia, you can't have it both ways!
    55
  23. Not conflict of interest. It is straight forward, Foreign Interference! If this ILaw group wants to have the constitution rewritten, then it must clearly show the details of the constitution, where there are problems, maintaining within the framework of law, what Lawyers know is reasonably expected. Obviously, this is not what they are doing, as it seems to be more about their control.
    54
  24. LinkedIn is not totally leaving China, leaving its advertising arm to continue to operate in China.
    53
  25. This was an Australian Spy plane, flying off the coast of where? Your headlines state Chinese ships in Australian waters! This is misinformation. So how often are Australian ships in the Taiwan strait? Too much nonsense being said here. Explain the spy plane off the Chinese coast!
    51
  26. Jinan, the city built on mineral springs, a city split in two being the old city and the new city. There is quite a motor industry presence there, being mainly trucks, such as Sinotruck. As a result of most of the city being built on top of mineral springs and other underground water systems, there were no subway lines built until recent times, with the city reliant on buses, thus havoc on the roads.
    51
  27. There is no integrity in hiding the truth. This has nothing to do with National Security, as it was an opportunistic attempt by the Australian Government to get a bigger slice of "the pie"! This was commercial spying and should be dealt with as such.
    50
  28. I think Adrian Zenz is seriously in need of thought transformation to rid himself of his Gestapo types of thoughts. He talks like he was educated and graduated from the Gobles university of further education.
    46
  29. The whole story is just that, a story containing a lot of B,,,S...
    46
  30. I would like to make two comments: 1. All the people in Newmarch Anglicare should be removed and relocated to a hospital for observation and daily testing, if they are deemed negative. Positive patients should not be kept there at all, as this facility is not a highly contagious disease facility. 2. Most test kits come from overseas, but there are none which are 100% accurate. There are many false negatives, thus testing should not be restricted to a one off in these facilities. Most of these tests are only 70 to 80% accurate. The result of lacking in ongoing testing testing can be devastating.
    45
  31. Will Farrell and Owen Wilson will be impressed by Canada's decision, given their past movie, Blades of Glory.
    45
  32. Interesting to see the BBC catch onto the Ukrainian soldiers executing the Russian soldiers story, and publishing it on Twitter, which happened two days prior. They have asked the Ukrainian Government who claimed it would be investigated. I hope the BBC follows up on it. 54 countries abstained, and only 54% voted to oust Russia.
    44
  33. If she only realised, it was not the airline staff keeping them inside the plane, it was the authorities of Pudong Airport who refused offloading until appropriate checks were made.
    43
  34. Read her Weibo post and you will see the misrepresentation of what she said, especially when she used a question mark. She asked a question, did not make a statement! The narrative changes immensely! That is manipulation of the truth for uncouth purposes. Translated question as i stated is as follows: "why do you come back to me and take me to your house, to force me to have a relationship with you?". Take away the question mark and punctuation, it becomes an accusation of an event! Leave the question mark and punctuation and it is a question about possible intentions that could have occurred, but not said to have occurred.
    41
  35. Qingdao beer is one of China's better beers, in my opinion.
    41
  36. Very important to mention it is a twofold city, being old and new, retaining its ancient Cantonese heritage in the west and the modern city in the east. The night lights, particularly in November each year, when all of Guangzhou celebrates its annual light show is something to behold.
    41
  37. Technically the US is insolvent, with debt continuing to grow. So what will they do next year, more increases in their debt ceiling? The government should have the same responsibilities as company directors.
    40
  38. Interesting to note that Saudi Arabia is refusing to take telephone calls or speak to Joe Biden, at the moment. I am returning to Australia in September, and am likely to go through another 2 hour grilling by Australian Border Force, because i do not agree with Australian policy and have criticized it for the same. I have been through this process before, so the belief Australia is Democratic is absurd. It monitors normal Australian people because they hold a different opinion of the government, including posts on social media such as Youtube.
    38
  39. ASPI is now operating outside of its mandate. This is easily estsblished when you follow through its setup and purpose. It is substantially funded by the taxpayer, with that funding coming from the defence department, with the defence minister able to use his discretion as to its funding, thus approving a 5 million dollar taxpayer funded grant to allow it to set up an office in Washington, so it can work closely with its U.S, counterparts, such as the State Department.
    36
  40. I really like the way this was presented, both verbally and visually.
    36
  41. Congratulations to you and your wife Jiao, on the safe arrival of Lincoln. Wow, very quickly onto the bottle.
    36
  42. Furthermore, the US Naval warship failed to abide by the rules of the sea, sailing across the bow from starboard, in front of the Chinese ship. Another narrative which should be corrected.
    34
  43. I have never in my 71 years seen a period of time where so much lunacy exists in the world. Is this another "Long Covid" effect? 😃😃😃
    33
  44. I want to point out that all the hype was commenced by mainstream media, and not the Australian people or the government, and they continued to focus on it. It appears they were trying to insight the public, into what and why? The PM said no issues here and defence minister suggested to calm down. In fact this subject was discussed at the military meeting in Beijing on 17th February.
    33
  45. Tests are sold? Therefore no controls? This is a money making deal? OMG!!
    32
  46.  @breakingbob2995  to be clear, Mainland China claims Taiwan, and Taiwan claims Mainland China, as well as Mongolia and other Islands Mainland China does not claim. So by their own constitutions, in both cases there is only one China.
    31
  47. I suggest Media Watch have a really good look at Sky News and its so called News reporting. It is apparent to me that it behaves like a political organisation, being a creator of news, not a reporter of news. You need only look at their headlines, and once you hear the essence of the topic, it is quite easy to understand the biased position they hold. Their media licence should come into question.
    29
  48. The problems with the compressors on Nordstream 1, were verified by Siemens, as i believe a Siemens maintenance crew were there to assist in the maintenance work.
    29
  49. I did a search on Baidu, in China, and cannot find the poster without Sharon. All advertising is the correct picture, after i scrolled through more then 100 pictures. So it was jusr a LIE. I have also gone to the local cinema, and the correct picture is shown! The original picture was probably altered by NTD and if it was on Baidu, planted it there for a short period of time before retracting it after Matt and Winston used it, as there is always a close association between them. NTD with its television news network has the resource and technical ability to make such changes, and has its agents in China to plant such seeds.
    29
  50. Cannot wait for Sky news to report: Breaking News; "Rupert Murdoch dies. Now we can start reporting the real news." LOL.
    28
  51. I heard Chaoyang park is great.
    27
  52. Remember, Australia's national interests come first, not that of USA or India. Too much kowtowing to the USA is not beneficial to Australian industry. America will still look after itself first.
    26
  53. Should there be an investigation into the AFP, as a result of their failure to "investigate"? LOL
    26
  54. For anyone visiting Guangzhou. Take a trip to the new residential areas in Huadu. You will see many uniquely shaped apartment buildings (Huadu central city area).. The reason is, the farmers who sold the land to the government for development, refused to move, and their very old old houses, still remain amongst these towers. That's right, not even the government could force these people out of their homes, in spite of their new found wealth. The Chinese government does not own all the land in China, which can be discovered through research of history of China.
    26
  55. It was rather amusing to hear the speech by the health minister and this man, declaring that quarantining people was draconian. However, the first thing he did when advised of being tested positive was to isolate himself.
    25
  56. It is not difficult to see how the Covid situation in America developed so badly, and how it continues.
    25
  57. Europe has become Primeval, now a collective with people designated as tribal elders, not to be questioned, but whose decisions must be followed without question. They are living a modern life in the stone ages!
    24
  58. Many words used are "seems", "appears", "believe", "suspect", etc, but nothing is factual, and is mostly based on satellite images, and information from from groups with agendas. Perhaps there should have been something said about what brought about the construction or use of buildings as detention camps. Nothing is said about for example the East Turkenstan Liberation Organisation, which is a radical group indoctrinating the people in Xinjiang to the ways and methods of its associated group el Qaeda. This led to many bombings, countless deaths and injuries throughout Xinjiang and in other cities of China. So by no such mentions, this so called strategic policy institute appears to have its own agenda. My question would be, what is its agenda, set by whom and why?
    24
  59.  @CyrusJanssen  just pointing out Jack Ma is alive and well.
    23
  60. Unbelieveable that a country unable to meet its debts, gives all members of parliament a 70% increase in their salaries.
    23
  61. Let's not forget, Xi Jinping has just returned from the SCO meeting in Uzbekistan, and under China's strict zero Covid policy, is in quarantine for a minimum of one week to ten days. So he will not be publicly seen during this period. This can give rise to all sorts of rumours.
    22
  62. There are many in this world parroting, war with china or the world at war! It would be very interesting to see more videos parroting, the world in peace, reflecting what the world could look like without bigoted relationships between countries, but rather focusing on peace and prosperity for all. You need only look at the current state of the streets of Philadelphia to reflect on what is and what could be. Think about "The Alternative",
    22
  63. I am wondering if this is caused by lack of pre and post natal education by midwives, who should be teaching pelvic exercises to strengthen pelvic functions both pre and post birth. My daughter is a fully qualified midwife, and apart from deliveries, she spends all her other times teaching these to mums to be. She also has her own three children, so also has first hand experience. I guess this is a way of dealing with the problem rather then the embarrassing symptoms.
    22
  64. Threat is a media term incorrectly used. The only country not vocalising military threat is China. Threat is therefore wrongly used as media perception, and USA as a it loses world domination.
    22
  65. Reminds me of myself! 68 and getting younger every year, LOL
    22
  66. The whole Iranian parliament will be infected
    21
  67. As an Australian living in China, i strongly recommend our Prime Minister accept the invitation to visit Beijing, to start to understand China and find out for himself the benefits of improving the trade relationship, and to push away from militarist support of the US.
    21
  68. The one important tool Gladys forgets to mention with her "pleases" in her daily press conferences is the use of QR codes. Without them contact tracing is near impossible, and they have the potential to paint a picture, so to speak. Using QR everywhere you go helps locate all potential cases.
    20
  69. Stan, stop the interruption! Let people finish before you ask more questions.
    20
  70. This man's rhetoric is always the same, never changes, and he has preconceptions. You need only view his previous interviews. Who is America to criticize New Zealand for not allowing nuclear ships into its ports. That is a matter of New Zealand's national security.
    19
  71. He also says the "one China" policy stands! A lot of double talk, depending on which media he is talking to.

  72. Hi Eric, i am also a first time viewer, and also have been living in China for many years, although i do not vlog (probably too old, lol). I agree with virtually all that you say, other then to add some words which i believe are your opinion, being descriptions. Workers throughout China, unlike the west, live in dormitory style accomodation at their workplace, which basically comprises a bed and some common area for relaxation. As to whether it is good or not is a matter of opinion, and may well compare to living conditions in their hometowns. They work long days, from early morning until late at night in many industries, and will generally have the ability to save their salaries which are also generally paid monthly in arrears, much of which is sent home. As long as these workers feel comfortable in their accomodation, then it is fine. There are standards which must be maintained, which are always being followed through by the Shenzhen workers administration, as are wage levels. All in all, China is not utopia and certainly not hell, and yes, there are many varieties of birds, even sparrows, lol. I enjoy living here because the people are friendly and it is not expensive, and therefore can live a comfortable modest lifestyle.
    19
  73.  @Jt.1226  yes, and every station air conditioned, trains air conditioned, and do not need to suffer in the current heat.

  74. Hi Cyrus, good video. I have just subscribed to you. To be up front, i am not American and i live in China. I am at the age where i can remember a very well respected president in the USA, who created one of the best quotes, which should be used at the forefront of this pandemic. You have by now undoubtedly recalled the President who comes to mind, as John F Kennedy. He quoted, and my words may not be exact as i am working on memory, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but for what you can do for your country". These became very famous words, and reflect where America with all its patriotism should be today. This should again be the slogan for fighting the pandemic as a way of unifying the American public, against a common enemy not being China, not being Russia, not being North Korea, but in actual fact being COVID19.
    19
  75. Why does Sarah Ferguson enter into questions in a preconceived manner, rather then ask questions framed in a neutral manner. Should i give examples? It is obvious throughout. In other words, questions carry within them preconceived assumptions, which are not necessarily valid, or are opinion based.
    19
  76. I suggest the the SCMP either retract this assertion or change it to be correct and not a clear lie!
    18
  77.  @zhouyou28  you offer nothing, only continued inuendo! Stop discussing problems and start discussing solutions.
    18
  78. The Times is owned by Rupert Murdoch, as he also owns Fox. Thus the narrative is the same throughout the world. Remember the telephone scandal many years ago involving Rupert and his Son, this being The Times in London?
    17
  79.  @NotShowingOff  do not shoot at people wearing white armbands
    17
  80. Has anyone thought that Uyghers also have the right to find work for higher wages throughout China, such as Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, etc where wages are much higher. My only concern about the narrative here is that it was initiated by a Uygher activist, who for all we know may have had a terrorist background. There are also many YouTube videos from Uygher people currently living in Xinjiang, who will contradict a lot of this negative world narrative of what happens there.
    17
  81. For those interested, most people i meet in China are happy with the current handling of the Covid Zero policy. However, the procedures, processes and policies are only as good as the state or city's government. Shenzhen for instance has handled outbreaks extremely well, and testing is quick and easy. Certainly, the use of the QR health code is exrremely helpful and works very well.
    17
  82. As usual, it is a continuation of discussions of the problems but wait, did i hear anything about solutions? No! The problems quoted here are all about what China has done to Australia, but not one mention as to the correlation of cause and effect, as to why these embargos occurred. It is time this country was more open and transparent about its own diplomacy, which apparently has gone missing.
    17
  83. In general, a lot of Australian governments were proactive in their actions and restrictions when the virus first entered Australia. However, with the lower numbers then expected, they moved to being reactive, and way too slowly, thus now being in the situation where the virus appears to be well entrenched in Melbourne. I know it is painful, however i seriously suggest, that the most strongest restrictions such as stage 4 be introduced, to stop the virus in its tracks. A period of 4 weeks would see a substantial turnaround of current events. Anything other then this action, will lead to repetition after repetition of shutdowns, at a much higher cost to the state's and individual business economies. Additionally, we will see large increases in the death toll, two to three weeks after we see these large numbers.
    17
  84. LOL, take note that marine traffic map still shows "Gulf if Mexico"😂😂😊
    16
  85. Interestingly enough, his side kick (Winston), put out a video with similar claims.
    16
  86. I believe that was business class, not 1st class. Oh, it is currently school holidays, so yes the high speed railway stations are currently packed.
    16
  87. We all know Pompeo is a trained LIAR! And look who supports him, Senator Lindsay Graham, about as trustworthy as Pompeo, who spends his whole time as a senator looking after self interest.
    16
  88. One must see there is an element of self infliction.
    15
  89. Went to Nanning today and there were Maotai billboards everywhere at Nanning Dong and at the metro.
    14
  90.  @David-pb2bu  nothing to do with Chinese law. It is in the constitution of both Taiwan and PRC, one China and the world has determined it to be headed by the Govt in Beijing. This is fact.
    14
  91.  @Tube4mj  the U.S. State Department is pushing Australia via it's previous minister for Home Affairs, now minister for Defence, to locate ICBMs in Northern Australia. These have tactical warheads and are not weapons for self defence. Most Australian politicians have very short memories about the lies fed by the State Department such as Iraq having weapons of mass destruction, resulting in the invasion and destruction of Iraq, as has also been done in Libya and Afghanistan. We currently have a very dangerous Prime Minister who could, if he continues the negative rhetoric about China, talk the country into a war. If that does not occur, it will certainly lead to destruction of economic ties which will see the Australian Economy plunge to levels never seen before! Remember America's rhetoric is if you are not with us, you are against us. I admire the current stance of the New Zealand Government, and urge the Australian government and politicians to mind their own business, and not interfere with the affairs of other nations, After all, Australia has a number of issues it needs to deal with first, with all the Royal Commissions taking place, and the further action required to deal the Australian soldiers and their murder of civilians in Afghanistan, just to name a few.
    14
  92.  @AliceInPayne  absolutely nothing to do with communism.
    14
  93. I believe and repeat once more that Putin speaks of using for example Hypersonic missiles or similar, more technologically advanced then available to western nations, with warheads which may include nuclear, but only if the existence of Russia and its territories are threatened. In other words, for self defence!
    14
  94. All i can say is what oppression is taking place in China? Am i missing something? Are one point four billion people being monitored daily? How is the violent crime situation in most of China's cities? Where is all this supposed factual information coming from? I will be honest here, and say my experience is first hand, not the chatter of politicians, supposed academics and media, as i see and live the experience. Most of what is heard in Australia coming from those mentioned above is not by their visits to China, but by the rhetoric coming from the U.S. which has its issues with China. To relate, debates are about two representatives, not one sided, which is not happening in Australia.
    14
  95.  @rezbaz8160  i wish!
    13
  96. When is a Federal Minister, going to shut his mouth up in respect to state affairs, especially when his own reputation is at question? It is bad enough we have overseas interference, without involving our own federal politicians! Perhaps Queensland and the Northern Territory could buy the airline together. Hmm, now what to call it?
    13
  97. 9 million, 10 million bicycles in Beijing! What's the next bid, 11 million, 12 million? LOL
    12
  98. I will try and convey my two cents worth, as to the reasons behind the destruction of Nordstreams 1 and 2. I believe the following; 1. The U.S. wants total control of Germany and greater control over the EU, for the purpose of being able to set up its own comnand and control centre and structure, planning three new military bases in Germany each complimented with up to 5,000 U.S. troops. 2. To decimate German and some other European key industries by starving them if energy needs, brings rise to the opportunity of relocation to the U.S. with assurances of adequate energy needs at lower cost then currently available. This appears to have been planned with new policies to encourage such businesses in recent times. No coincidence! Economic benefits would be enormous and could potentially soften what appears to be a looming recession. 3. Poland has just announced the opening of the new pipeline from Norway for gas, but with only about 60% capacity of the original Nordstream 1 Pipeline, thus enabling further economic benefits to flow from LPG gas sales directly frim the U.S. for THE LONG TERM, to fulfill the excess requirements of the EU. 3.
    12
  99. As i see it, most of the diabetes in China, being Type 2, has developed as an onset diabetes in the elderly, who rarely even know they are suffering from this. I believe a lifetime of eating rice for breakfast, lunch and dinner, coupled with the reduced output of the pancreas being age related after a lifetime of struggle producing sufficient insulin, is the root cause. This rice, being hi GI carbohydrates is converted to sugars very quickly, with the body unable to produce enough insulin to absorb it as energy. In China, it is not a result of lifestyle change, or eating fastfood. It can be controlled with a change of diet, lowering the carbohydrate intake.
    12
  100.  @Hide_and_silk  creative accounting all too often causes bankruptcy. I have always adhered to actual verifiable numbers, solidly backed up with evidence.
    12
  101. Even Kevin Rudd makes "GAFFS", as the islands as he stated taken by China, are actually in the south china sea, and not in the south Pacific. This is one ocassion when i do not agree with most of what he said, which seemed to be said more about protection of his own position on The Asia Society, which for reasons not stated is located in the U.S..
    12
  102. Correction in History. The island of Formosa as it was known then, was never included in the Japanese surrender document, and was never officially returned to the then Republic of China for reasons unknown, unlike all other territories and islands occupied by the Japanese which were specifically included in that document.
    12
  103. I cannot believe the nonsense being written here. There was dumb and dumber, and it also looks like a few of their cousins joined in. Oh, and for those who think hydroxy chloroquine is a good thing, read the fine print of potential side effects.
    12
  104.  @munztere6426  do some research! There is a lot of info available. Eg. United nations declared East Turkenstan Liberation Organization as a terrorist organization. Check out ETLO bombings in Xinjiang, Kunming, Guangzhou and Beijing. There is a lot of independant information available on the internet, to give a more balanced view, for the period of mid 1990s to mid 2010s, when this radicalisation was at its peak.
    12
  105. Another issue is that the Ukraine is a defacto member of NATO. It has received protection assurances, has been militarized, its military has received training, it has NATO military establishments, etc all provided by NATO and the US. In October 2021 Zelensky's popularity dropped to less then 25%.
    12
  106. This is better then guns and rubber bullets. For those who riot, not peaceful demonstrators at approved rallies.
    11
  107. As stated by the Russians. There is a requirement to protect about 1,000 km of borders assuming success of the referemdums, thus this requires a large force along the whole length of this border, until there is peace in Ukraine. Of course these numbers of soldiers become the defensive line, releasing all others currently involved on all these lines to become offensive.
    11
  108. It should be called physical distancing, not social distancing. There is nothing social about it.

  109. Secret court hearings in Australia about secret trials, but what does that really mean? And we dare criticize other countries for the same? Apparently, the new IN throughout the world is in the interest of National Security. So what is National Security? Out of site and kept away from the Australian public? In this case It appears to be more about self protection by the government, for its wrong doings, or am i just a conspiracy theorist?

  110.  @CamMac-kd1ou  since when do we define "economic" zones. This is political garbage. So it is ok for US, Australian, British, Dutch and other countries war ships, including several aircraft carriers to traverse the south china sea, to intimidate China, but close to home this should not happen? The world is one, and people should be respecting it as a One World, for all. The whinging and statements made by Morrison was childish, given the nature of the visit by the RAAF plane, which was in reality not on a training sortie, but on a spy sortie. Training missions by a single aircraft would not be carried out in the Arafura Sea, but more likely in the Gulf of Carpentaria, similar to those commonly carried out in the Spencer Gulf, many years ago. So provocation generally will receive responsive provocation. Look at both sides!

  111. All i will say, being my opinion, i believe these malls in Futian and Nanshan areas were severely hit by the virus, with enforced shutdowns. Many of these shops were opened by entrepreneurial people who likely had little general or specialized business experience thus they fell on hard times, unable to meet such high rental expectations. I will say however, that the rental currently being asked is not going to quickly bring new entrepreneurs to the area.

  117. The talk of intrusion into Taiwan's Air Defence Zone by Chinese military aircraft, is absolute nonsense, as this Zone, which is only bring touted by the U.S., covers a substantial part of the Chinese mainland. As can be seen on many of the maps shown by western media, all these flights were in international airspace. However, it is okay for two U.S. and one British aircraft carriers along with an amarda of support ships to sail through the strait separating Taiwan and the mainland. It would therefore be apparent that whilst these ships remain in this area to intimidate China, the PLA airforce is likely to continue these sorties. As for the use of the word "autocratic or autocracy", which is often used to describe China, it is time to think again. Yes, China has a single party government, which is headed by a secretary general, whom the west has given the name President, and results in the automatic use of this President being an autocrat. In actual fact, the governance of China is not much different to the west, other then there is little standing in the way of decision making. Let me remind you of the autocracy of almost every western nation whilst in a pandemic. You may not work, you must stay home, you are only allowed out for "x" number of hours per day, etc, etc, etc., at different levels of government. Also in the case of Australia, an Australian citizen must seek government approval to enter the country, and will likely be placed on a waiting list, with further covenants on arrival, regardless of where they have been. So think again before using this word to describe others who may have a different form of governance, simply to portray to the viewers a negative image of that country.

  122. I see competing at the Olympics as and individuals personal achievement, at the highest level, with little to do with which country you come from. The competition is staged by the International Olympic Committee, not by a country and representatives are nominated by Sports associations from all over the world, representing the olympic committee nominating them. Medial tallys by country is done by the Main Stream Media, and always has been, but has nothing to do with the country they necessarily live in or come from. A classic example at these games is a woman Mogul skier from Australia, Jakara Anthony who won a gold medal at the Olympics. Facilities for Mogul Skiing are very limited in Australia, thus most is done overseas, such as in U.S. and Canada. Thus the end result winning at the highest level is a personal achievement, not that of their country. Jakara should receive the congratulations she deserves for such personal achievement.

  126. As a result of the one case in Nanning, the residential district of NingNing ( i think that was its name) was shut down and all residents tested. I live in Binyang, Guangxi, which is a county of the city of Nanning, and there has not been one case since the pandemic started. Mind you, we have restrictions at the moment that would surprise people in the west, but the reason is very sound. You cannot at the moment, prior to the spring festival with so many people arriving from the big cities, buy many types of medicine especially for colds and flu, and analgesics which assist with temperature reduction. This is intended to force people with any symptoms of colds and other illnesses to attend the peoples hospital, where they will firstly be tested, and can receive medications for any ailments they may have. Of course, wearing of masks and temperature checks are also back when entering plazas and supermarkets, until after the spring festival, when things will again return to normal.

  130. China has never started an armed conflict, and will unlikely do so. The world is aware of the one China policy which will remain until reunification occurs. Sure China will appear to threaten Taiwan, in the same way as America continues to threaten China with its naval fleet constantly sailing up and down the coast. Both are intimidation, but neither are likely to back down. In history this was a situation created by America failing to specifically name Formosa in the surrender document with Japan. Now America, to me is behaving like gangsters using protection as a tool for support. Let them deal with it, and ensure that Australia does no more then look after its own interests.

All other transaction disputes of a comnnercial nature are dealt with by way of commercial law practices of that nation, but are generally stipulated within the contracts, which bind the law requirements to one country or another.

  150.  @sutekhthedestroyer6412  i suggest you do some research such as looking at the latest Associated Press reports, denying these supposed prison camps exist, and discovering they were in fact retraining facilities (equivalent to TAFE) both for poverty alleviation and suppression of radicalism which had been endemic in Xinjiang with massive amounts of terrorist activities since about 1996. Furthermore, China has much more control of the internet for exactly the reason America staged it's 6th January event. With a population of more then 1.4 billion people, it very strongly promotes peace and harmony to its entire population. Explain to me who has received the death penalty for criticizing its president. Nothing is illegal in China, if it is done in the correct way. There are offices in China where one can lodge criticisms and/or complaints in a legal way and not be penalized for doing so. The reason for having systems in place is to prevent subversion activities seen elsewhere, but still allows an outlet for this criticism in a constructive manner.

  153.  @S2Tubes  check facts, yes a border skirmish with India, who initiated it is unclear but the incident is minor by comparison. The islands as you mention are early warning detection in response to Obama encircling China with American military bases (again check your facts). Air space incursions again are minor but are not threats of war, and could well be compared to American military incursions over territory which is chinese controlled, used to antagonize and for propaganda purposes. Taiwan (formerly Formosa) was part of China prior to Japanese occupation of WW2, and in the peace settlement as arranged by USA with the Japanese, was excluded from territories to be returned to China, but is still known as China. It did not become Taiwan until some years later when occupied following the civil war. Most countries in the world do not recognise Taiwan as a separate nation, and thus its sovereignty is questioned by the Beijing Government, who look forward to one day reuniting the people of the two Chinas. As with most things in China, they will more likely wait out time for unification as they tend to do with most matters, and it is the western nations speaking of war, as well as initiating acts to provoke war, such as selling of missiles and military hardware to Taiwan (again do some fact checking). China has not threatened war against any nation that i know of, but will defend itself, unlike some western nations (again fact check).

  154. The AMA very clearly needs to look at their own guidelines. Should a doctor who has not been well or sick, even suffering a cold, be in contact with patients. Testing is irrelevant, because it is more about poor judgement and then a use of how far they can go under the guidelines, which to me is inappropriate by a so called medical professional.

  162. The problem is that there was a reliance on voluntary testing. The advertised recommendations were calling for symptomatic people to be testing. The way to have stopped it was to mass test, suburb by suburb, thus picking up asymptomatic people, and removing infected people to a quarantine facility. So it could have been stopped, both picking up infectious people, symptomatic or not, and preventing further spread. These associated with two weeks of stringent lockdowns could have stopped spread and reduced infections to only a few, and possibly zero. Any other way is impossible. That would have been substantially better then the many months of lockdown which continues even to today, and saved the economy possibly billions of dollars. Resource was all that was needed!

  174. I have no problem what so ever with a narration focusing on the resultant damage to cultural sites in Ukraine. However, i do have a problem with the laying of blame narrated. Both sides share blame, as cited by UN reports of using civilian sites including hospitals and schools for command centres, including weapon storage or for positioning of armaments. Remember, this war has been going on since 2014, with Ukraine bombing its own people in the East, including infrastructure. This war appears to be more about the spreading of Propaganda, rather then focusing on how to bring about a peaceful resolution. All i see is a singular perspective, ignoring realities already known but ignored.

  182.  @fake-news  you may well have lived in China for many years, but you did not live there during the pandemic. It has yet to be proved that the virus originated in China, although it was first discovered and made known to the world. Before criticizing certain aspects of the response you seem unaware of what was occurring behind the scenes, once this unknown virus was discovered. A specialist team of scientists was dispatched to Wuhan to investigate this unknown virus, which had already been made known to the public, although it had been misrepresented as a different virus, namely SARS. I will remind you, at that time this virus was unknown! Some people who publicized this were castigated by local authorities but did not follow proper procedures. As a result, they lost their jobs or were demoted, and all charges were admonished. It still took the scientific team a week to discover the virus and learn it genome, which was released to the world a little more then a week after their arrival. As to the nature of the virus, that was still under investigation, including spread and effects. The rest of the world could have been much more prepared, if some of their governments did not behave so pig headedly. As for the origin of the virus, although there was much assumed speculation about where it began, there is still no answer or proof. Interestingly, today it was announced through Reuters, that scientists in Italy believe the virus was active there back in September 2019. You are welcome to check this information out. So did this virus originate in China, possibly unlikely, however China was the first country to identify it and to share its genome with the world as soon as it was known. Did China respond appropriately at first sign of this virus? Possibly not, but it did not know too much about it. When sufficient information was known, it moved very rapidly in terms of world notifications and internal lockdowns. I suggest you go back and do some research.

  183.  @Shenzhou.  i did understand. My point being, many Ukrainian soldiers are in the age range of 26-28 years of age roughly, and it would not take the Russians much effort to recognize them as not civilians. Yes, they could dress as civilians to attempt to infiltrate, and when caught, which would be inevitable, would be treated not as prisoners of war, but as spys.

  198. China is surrounded by many US Military bases, so it is understandable it would set up new outposts in the south china seas, as early warning posts, mainly due to the intimidation snd threats which have been made against it. However, most of China's military hardware and manpower has been through policy setup for defence purposes. There is no indications, nor known policies of China wishing to embark on attacks or otherwise against other nations. The general chinese population would not support their government if this was to happen and would likely create a revolution. All China wants is to trade with other countries, the reason for its belt and road initiative, to give its people opportunity for business development within their own country thus giving all people the opportunity of improvement of their standards of living.

  206. Cyrus, keep an eye on the current Delta variant outbreak in Putian, Fujian province, an outbreak brought in by returning man, passing it on to his children and in turn other students. It is highlighting the problem which is not being recognized anywhere else in the world. 16 out of 22 cases found up to yesterday were Asymptomatic. These are the super spreaders, and in most countries in the world, they are focusing on symptomatic for testing. The difference of course being that China tests everyone. I am pretty sure they will bring this under control within a short period of time. The other important factor in China is that positive cases generally do not home isolate. They are taken to a quarantine hospital or facility where they are monitored and frequently tested. In the west, too many people requested to home isolate because they have the virus, still go out!

  207. Let it be said that America does not recognize International Law, or at least not until it is fully ratified by their own processes. In the meantime it touts everything being international rules based, being international rules which do not exist, and those which America creates at whim. It is difficult to ascertain the supposed international laws of the south china sea, the main reason being the overlapping of claims by all surrounding S.E. Asia countries. The only law which is recognized internationally is the 12 miles exclusion zone, but it is also often being breached either deliberately by the U.S. Navy or inadvertently by fishermen from neighbouring countries.

This is what had led China to deal with the severe problem of terrorism in Xinjiang. There is a lot of contradicting evidence out there, but it is apparent you only seek what you want to hear or see. Just the same as your comment of my being paid for comment! You have no evidence other then a warped brain, because there are people in this world who look at the bigger picture, uninfluenced by the thoughts of others. Of course, there is no evidence at all of genocide, unlike the actions of other countries in the middle east.

  209. What is quite evident is that the media is "sprooking" a win for Christian Porter, whilst the legal fraternity has the opposite point of view. So why does the media want to do this, is it so much in their interest? Obviously, as should always be the case, they should go with the expert advice! Thus the result could be deemed to be fake or minimally misleading news. I would only give credability to a news story which gave both viewpoints without additional editorial comment, thus leaving it to the reader to judge.

  219.  @terrydavidson9893  why does everyone think Georgia is going through a hand count. It was stated it would go through a tally audit, which views and audits batches. It was also stated, that this audit was to prove there was no problems with the machine counts, with the expectation that there will be little if any difference in the final result. This audit will also prove there is no fraud. Deputy attorney generals in 16 states have sent a letter to William Barr to the effect that they believe this to be the cleanest ever election in the USA. There appears to be too many parrots in America mimicking their now outgoing president, making many false claims without evidence. The 200+ affidavits being submitted as evidence either cannot be substantiated and many contain third party heresay which is inadmissible to courts, with only a few which will come under review by the courts. None will effect the election outcome.

  220. The perception that there are massive controls in China is a misguided notion of the west. There are also people who think they have authority, but in reality, have none. I speak of some security guards, who overstep the lines. They are soon put back in their places when caught out by the police. The other day i saw one overstepping his authority, got most annoyed when told by the police, was then placed in handcuffs and cried like a baby.

  231. Consider the following: 1. The U.S. was building a military facility in the Ukraine, be it a small one, just near the Russian border. 2. In 2014 Russia forcefully took back Crimea which was given to the Ukraine by the Russian president during the U.S.S.R. days. 3. The Ukraine is seen as a democratic republic, after removal of its previous government. 4. The Ukraine wants to become a member of NATO. As such, NATO could establish (and would likely do so) military bases on the Ukrainisn Russian Border. 5. At the moment the Ukraine acts as a buffer zone between the bulk of NATO and Russia. 6. If the Ukraine was admitted to NATO, it is most likely to comnence military operations to take back Crimea. 7. A military action between Ukraine and Russia in such an event, due to the NATO accord, they would have to join the Ukraine in a war against Russia. 8. Russia cannot win a conventional war against a much stonger and well equipped NATO, with ten times the military budget of Russia. 9. Any conventional war between Russia and NATO would mean the total destruction of Russia. 10. Russia is therefore in the position of a cornered rat. Such a position would likely start a nuclear war. According to Putin, if he waited for the above, and no one would deny these likely scenarios, it would be the end of and total destruction of Russia. As a result he had to make the first strike. In my analysis, Russia does not want the Ukraine as part of its territory, and at some time allow it to return to some form of democracy, with conditions. The most major if those conditions (and this should be the aim of immediate peace settlements) should be a guarantee that Ukraine will never become a member of NATO. The issue of Crimea could be dealt with by way of return of Crimea to Ukraine, and a 70 or 99 year lease given to Russia for this peninsula. Any further negotiations should be continued following a guaranteed ceasefire between both countries. WHERE ARE THE PEACEMAKERS IN THIS WORLD?

  237. Xi Jinping is not president for life. The only change to the constitution was in respect to limitation of presidential tenure. His position as president must be renewed by its internal election system. That is to say, if the peoples congress is not happy with his performance, he will be voted out. As for the words authoritarian and communist, the country is far from it. It has a single government, which has the ability to set into motion long term plans, without the worry of the next election. Most of what it does, is done in the best interests of the chinese people, in an effort to provide work and a reasonable standard of living for everyone.

  243. It is difficult to believe Biden is good for America, when in announcing the beginning of the AUKUS Alliance, he cannot remember the name of one of the two only partners to America in this alliance, maybe his greatest embarrassment since taking office. To me, it would seem that he and his team have coerced the UK and Australia to Shill for America, the aim being to direct them against China, with a lesser direct, but greater indirect, involvement by the US. Unfortunately, this will cost Australia economically and will in my thinking most likely send the country into recession. It is most unfortunate that the Australian government does not recognize that "The Mouse That Roared", was not based on a reality, but was only a fairytale.

As for Tibet and Xinjiang, you are obviously misinformed by a UScentric media, informed by the propagandists in the State Department, who are involved in more covert activity around the world then most people would care about. China can be managed much easier as a friend rather then as a foe. I am certainly no propagandist for the CCP, or CPC its correct name not conjured by the media, but base what i say on being informed. China will continue to influence countries around the world with soft power, which is irrefutable, but not necessarily harmful, intended to benefit both sides.

  261.  @Epistemophilia7  that is the job of doctors, to advise on pre existing conditions. My parents in law are in that position of underlying medical issues, thus we took them to discuss with the doctor, who still recommended the vaccination, thus both were vaccinated to double dose. However, they still fear vaccination, and do not want the booster. This is with Chinese vaccines, which are standard type vaccines, like any other vaccine people get. There has to be an education blitz, to target the elderly to receive all three doses. In Shanghai, i believe on 62% of the elderly population have been vaccinated to the booster stage. So there is a huge potential for deaths, which nobody wants.

  262. What would be of great interest to the world is "what is Biden's personal interest in the Ukraine?"

A teargas cannister thrown directly at the press by a police officer, as he was getting on a bus to depart the scene, does not constitute a necessity to break up an illegal assembly, but seemed more to be a message on departure. A very reckless action! He should be held accountable for his actions.

  283. Where does the Prime Minister get his facts that the Wet Market in Wuhan was the place from which this virus came? Scientists will say that this virus is 99% likely to have come from bats, which however is not treated by them as conclusive. Conclusive would be 99.8%. The same goes for the wet market. The initial symptoms of the virus was found in people working in the wet market, which led to an assumption what was sold there was the source. In reality, one person in the wet market coukkd easily have spread this virus to others there, due to its contagious nature, having caught this virus elsewhere. So there is no conclusive evidence as yet, that this was the source. If you really want to pander to the cause against wet markets, then i suggest you look further then just China. They are prolific in all of Asia. The Wet Market near the city in Kuala Lumpur is huge by comparison, and the products and killing practices are the same.

  284. Why dont you guys put forward all the facts? BBC ban from China is misrepresented here. 1. It is in retaliation for the UK banning CGTN from the UK, as well as the BBCs reporting of the Uygher issue with a woman who has given many different accounts of her experience in Xinjiang, which really do not make sense. The BBC has no desire to correct this record, even in the knowledge that it waa wrong. 2. When Covid arrived on the scene in December 2019, the chinese internet was full of false stories and claims, which brought about the policy and crackdown on media reporting in China to be from official sources only. 3. In the last four or five years years there has also been a massive crackdown on corruption within China, which has implicated many people including foreigners. If one considers these factors as well as understanding modern life in China from the non political perspective of the ordinary chinese person not living in Beijing, then perhaps these discussions may not sound so negative towards China.

They are amazingly clever and work very hard, most commonly working 10 to 11 hours per day, six days per week. They think very highly of countries such as Australia, but love their own country because it will always be the motherland. Their interest in other countries is to visit them, which is the same as many westerners wishing to travel overseas. Anyone can apply for and receive a passport, and everyone is free to travel where they like.

It is likely, those protecting Kyiv are not first tier military personnel, with most directed to the front lines in their desperate attack. So both numbers and quality will be down in Kyiv. If this occurs, with Russian troops amassed in Belarus, it will have a massive influence on the Kherson attack, perhaps forcing a withdrawal. Just a thought!

  318. Just to clarify the narrative on Education. Tutoring is not banned, nor are the services of private educational institutions, but is now restricted to blocks of no more then two hours and must relate to the students study at school.

  320.  @DivergentStyles  it is apparent that people in positions of power up to and including the Prime Minister, have extremely loose tongues, not thinking before speaking. Even today, Morrison in a radio interview agreed with the one China, two systems principal for Taiwan, which is apparently not part of current government strategy.

  321.  @michaelmcclown5593  you tell me.

  322.  @michaelmcclown5593  you are correct. But only the northern border region, in response to vietnam invading Cambodia, rightly or wrongly. China saw a massive build up of military defenses on Vietnam's northern border and suspected Vietnam of having further plans, with its recent defense pact with the Soviet Union. China withdrew from its troops one month later. Although it is little known in both China and Vietnam, many Chinese people, particularly those living in the border province of Guangxi, agree that the Khmer Rouge needed to be eliminated from Cambodia.

  323.  @MrGong55  it is quite apparent that you are the brainwashed one, not me. No one in the world is totally free, as we must all show acceptable behaviour, and her only mistake here is showing what is not acceptable. The New York Post or Times manipulated the context of what she said, for their own purposes being part of the anti China conspiracy currently narrated by mainly the U.S.A. and Great Britain. They have just repeated similar false narratives about pro China YouTubers, all to create a fictional story. Perhaps you should focus on the CIA's concern about a civil war looming in the U.S.A. in the next two years, which would be a much better story to follow. Oh yes, i can read your chinese which has absolutely nothing to do with her post. It is a typical course of action to take to distract from debate, just like American propagandists do. Fact remains fact! What she said in her interview supports what she says, being misunderstood.

  325.  @lny4170  America does not care about collateral damage. Look at Susan Rice being asked about 500,000 or more children dying in Iraq as a result of American sanctions, to which she confirmed, it was worth it. Collateral damage means nothing to them, as long as it fits their agenda. They appear to be following The Rand Report to the letter.

  330. In 2012 Al Jazerra devoted a program called The Listening Post to the telephone hacking scandal involving Murdoch's company News of the World, describing U.K. media of having dropped to its lowest possible standard of journalism, Time has passed, more then ten years, during which nothing has changed, with the British Tabloids continuing their gutter journalism. And surprise, surprise, surprise (as Gomer Pile would put it), this gutter journalism is still being pushed by a Murdoch tabloid.

  334. Biden asked Xi to stop the PLA airforce flyover sorties near Taiwan to which Xi replied this was easily solved if the U.S. Navy would stop their military exercises in the South China sea. I did not see how this was resolved, but a good response from Xi.

  336. Let us firstly remember, the U.S. is fearful of China's economic rise, thus it will do everything in its power, lawful or not to create misinformation on issues in China, and seek condemnation and sanctions by other nations to satisfy its own self interest. One need only look at recent reports on Xinjiang created by both CNN and the BBC to see the level of misinformation as well as fake news. In saying so, do not accept these reports or news stories as the gospel truth, but instead do some research on their sourcing. It is most unfortunate that many countries in the world trust USA and Britain, to accept their word on this information. Perhaps also research the Australian media's use of their categorization of anything coming from the Chinese embassy as propaganda, as most people in Australia associate this word with misinformation. Why then does Australian media not use this word for the US State Department which has been the worlds greatest source of misinformation and propaganda, including weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Need i say more? Keep an open mind and do research!

  337. The problem in Sydney with the Delta virus is all the Asymptomatic cases running around. The government doesn't want to test them, only wanting people with symptoms to be tested. That is their daily narration.
    2
  338.  @scbluechuan3748  Delta in Sydney is out of control. The government has given up with the focus on preventing hospitalization. Their latest propaganda (yes it is propaganda) is using the word "hope". There is hope when all people are vaccinated! LOL. Even mass testing now will will continue to find asymptomativc cases, the people who are the superspreaders and are unaware. However, even if they are found, they will not stay isolated, and continue to spread the virus.

  339. This is very common on high speed trains. I have experienced this on several ocassions. It can be difficult to recognize the seat number on the ticket. On my last trip a woman with a child was in my seat, being a middle seat amongst three. I did not pursue it, as there were many other seats available in this carriage, and after all, i was only travelling one station.

  340. Here is a fact check for you guys. The tweet says "The Governor of California is sending Ballots to millions of people, anyone....". This is to which Twitter refers. They were NOT BALLOT PAPERS! They were Information about ballot papers!! You spent ten minutes discussing Trumps rubbish, when the information added by Twitter, referred to the misinformation about Ballot Papers.

  344. Recently the BBC released a story https://youtu.be/-mqga0a6H8I dated 3rd of March 2021 in respect to the Uygher people of Xinjiang, China., which is a good example of fake news. So watch the real story written 3 years earlier: On 6th November 2017, CGTN posted a video, Assignment Asia; Transforming lives and building bridges in Xinjiang.  https://youtu.be/-mqga0a6H8I. This was the source of the so called BBC investigation report! Thus it makes a mockery of the so called BBC Investigation and shows how farcical they can be.

  346.  @ecofriendly0  as much as my opinion may agree with you, it cannot be said to be factual. As much as the scientists, epidemiologists and other medical professionals give governments advice, the decisions made are still political, hence would include what you have said. In Australia, the government will be facing an election within the next twelve months, so all decisions are political, attempting political support.

  347. Where do they find these lunatics? Why does the rest of the world want to impose their ideologies on a country which has its own? Isn't that just Political interference, the very complaint every other nation makes about China and Russia, in respect to their own elections? Every country has the right to its own sovereignty and determination, without external influence.

  351. It is apparent that most Western nations are infiltrated with Nazis. If you check out Main Stream Media coverage of Ukraine, you will find years and years of trouble in Ukraine with Nazis, the far right extremists and rogue malitia groups, all of whom the west are supporting now. Check out YouTube for yourself, if you do not believe it. I thought the west declared war on terrorists following 9/11, but here they are supporting and building on this very same ideology.
    2
  352. There is a point being missed here, which is why all the current rhetoric is occurring. If Taiwan officially unifies with China, the ten to fifteen years for China outgrowing the U.S. economically is totally gone, and becomes almost immediate! America wants to stop it. This is why Taiwan and what happens to it right now, is not what America wants to see immediately. AGREE or NOT AGREE?

  354. There is only one way for Nancy Pelosi to visit Taiwan, and it should be done through approval by Beijing. If she is planning on such a trip to cause tensions, then she will be the most arrogant and naive politician ever to have led congress. At 82 years of age, on her last term in Congress, does she want to leave a legacy of conflict between U.S. and China? I hope not! Joe Biden should step in to cancel it.
    2
  355. Are these paramilitary police from china, dressed as Hong Kong police? I notice a Han more senior policeman, who is not from the south. This is not police restoring order, or enforcing the rules of law. Their behaviour is like a vigilante group.
    2
  356. Even China is not banning it's citizens from travelling overseas. I live in China, but should i return to Australia, would have undue to difficulty in leaving Australia, but would not have any difficulty to re-enter China. So it has little to do with being a democracy! Rules for entering Australia are already in place for arrivals from overseas, in terms of quarantine. Appropriate testing, prior to any departure for people wishing to depart Australia could be put in place, to view this country as taking some responsibility, and not being a spreader of this pandemic, unlike some other countries.

  357. She is not a military person and has no right to salute. The president as head of the military should acknowledge but not salute, as he is not in uniform. In other words saluting is only for military personnel, whilst wearing hats. Without hats, they should not salute but instead cross their right arm in front of them as a salutation. As far as i am aware, that is the proper ettiquette for all military personnel throughout the world. So perhaps the research here should be about military ettiquette rather then critique of an individual neither presently or in the past a member of the military.

  364. The blind leading the blind. It is rampant in America, and they don't even realise it, because of the testing fiasco. It is already widespread in the USA, and they have been exporting the disease overseas since 26th February. An Australian doctor went to a conference in the USA, caught the disease at a conference there, and returned to Australia. As is now known, even Tom Hanks and his wife are now infected, likely to have brought this disease with them from USA. They are now in a Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia hospital.

  366. The most major action i see in the EU is the attempt to control Facebook, Google, Twitter and Youtube, etc, to maintain European narratives only, with severe penalties for failures to maintain this narrative.

  368. What is all this about Chinese aggression and so called expansion? China is in a constant state of self defense. Why, because Australia does not agree with China's ideology. China's ideology is not being pushed onto the rest of the world, as it is unique to only China. It is only the west, and in particularly speaking of war, not in China. China wants to expand as an economic power, and its military expansion has been built for self defense capabalities. Time for the west to wake up, and in particular to American propaganda, moving from one situation to another, starting with Hong Kong, Tibet, Xinjiang and now Taiwan. Remember who was behind financing problems in Tibet, then Hong Kong, and if they had their way, the East Turkenstan Democracy Movement (which is alikened to financing al-Qaeda) in Xinjiang. Of course America has made a mint from selling military hardware to Taiwan, so to incite it any further is good for American arms manufacturing. Wake up Australia! We have nothing to gain and everything to lose, being led by supposed narrow minded experts, brandishing threats of war. They are totally irresponsible.

  369. As was Japan.

  370. To enlighten the world, it was George W. Bush who put out the declaration of war against terrorists, with China following as he requested. So if the US has problems with dealing with terrorists, perhaps he should be asked, as he laid the groundwork for dealing with them.

  373. Payroll tax is incumbent on business, not employees, thus employees will not receive a cent of it. This is the sort of "B...sh.t" that is constantly being touted by this president, who thinks he knows about business, but apparently doesn't. From what i heard his answer to the question was a fumbled mash of bogus nonsense. It is the answer to a question when you neither understand the question or don't know the answer to the question.
    2
  374. Some things which should be noted: people in China are just like people anywhere else in the world, and there will always be some who do not conform to requests such as self isolation due to being a close contact of an infected person. As a result some were forced to remain in their homes by having action taken including doors being welded, which gave western media a field day. Of course, nothing was mentioned about these people receiving daily supplies of fresh food and where necessary medicine, delivered directly to them. Then the western press had a field day with the use of the word "draconian". Virologists and epidemiologists the world over all agree that draconian means are the only way to stop a pandemic. Of course most countries have not gone hard with these "draconian" lockdowns, and the results can be seen. Just look at Europe and North America. The only countries to have followed such means seem to be Australia and New Zealand, and now look at their results. I recall in March last year, i was encouraging everyone i knew to wear a mask if possible, not to prevent catching the virus, but instead to minimize the chance of its spread. Unbelieveable as it may sound, although i was laughed at, at that time, it is now mandated in many places. So let's stop criticizing and or blaming China, and start reflecting on our own actions, or should i say inactions!

  376. I must say, that Ukraine in particular shows an enormous level of Naivety. So did the Russian missile and Drone attacks on Ukraine, and Kyiv bring the downfall of the Ukrainian Government? No! So why expect drone attacks on Moscow be any different? Naivety at its worst, used in desperation.

  377. To all the conspiracy theorists! The theories of 5G as a threat came from Russia, by its internet television network RT. Check it out and learn the truth. We began with 2G, then 3G, then 4G, and now 5G, however the average lifespan continues to increase. Only one country has 5G, as most of the world has fallen behind. America wants to be the country to control and roll out 5G, which it currently does not have, so will do everything it can, including lie, deceit and deception. This is the source of misinformation. Power comes from money, and America wants to control it.

  381.  @じゃみっと  no one is a victim to China, as they are victims of their own politicking, in many cases being involved in China's national interests. So you suggest joining with the USA, to which i ask why, when it has been the USA through it's self interested president who has been the main protagonist, attempting to kowtow many countries to do its dirty work as well as meddle in the internal affairs of China which includes Hong Kong (oh, in case you were not aware, Hong Kong is part if China).

  390.  @megaflux7144  the BBC announced it in this Video, or are you hard of hearing. Of course, it would be downplayed due to its failure. In case you are not aware, Ukraine has created its own laws to prevent unauthorized news being reported (and nearly all news reports to the west are releases from the Ukraine Government). Very little negative news in Ukraine is reported, because of the vested interests western nations have. This event was also reported by Reuters, and i don't think they doubt what happened.

  391.  @ninob5155  A nursing home is not up to the standard of a contagious disease facility, nor are the staff equipped mentally or physically to deal with these issues of a contagious disease. They are basically carers under the supervision of medical staff who are also unlikely to be well enough trained to deal with a pandemic. There is a big difference between a DON of a nursing home, and a DON of a critical care hospital.

Certainly from the many comments here, it is apparent that many people don't think this virus is a serious issue. NSW people have a real problem dealing with lockdowns, and should look at how Victorians dealt with it. A very poor effort, NSW, as you are holding this country back.

  397. It is quite apparent that both sides of the political establishment are fearful of a royal commission, because as we all know, this will result in damming information for both parties, which they would they much prefer to keep under wraps. To me this just proves that there is an influence of external control of both sides of politics by outsiders, to public detriment.

  398.  @kagenlim5271  there were 6470 stories about this virus on 5th January 2020 on the internet (Baidu) but the world chose to ignore them. As for H1N1 you know little about the Spanish Flu which has devastated the world on two separate ocassions. Do some research!

  402. @PR0GRAMMING what you need to understand about China is that it also does not care so much for outside interference, as are also the claims of other nations including the USA and Australia. This has been highlighted with the USA claiming everything to be of national security interest, and wanting to stop foreign interference. I will contend that what is constantly happening in respect to China is foreign interference, being no different. If you want to be critical of China, do so with a range of solutions, but do not do so for the sake of criticism. China will accept criticism if accompanied with solutions which are better or more beneficial. This is diplomacy!

  404. To be clear, Meng Wanzhou signed a Deferred Prosecution Agreement, which included charges which were downgraded, to which she pleaded not guilty. What was agreed as part of all this was that it was effectively a confidentially agreement, gagging Meng from speaking about it for a period of 4 years from the date of her initial arrest. If you want to claim this document as admission of guilt, (to which she pleaded not guilty) then in fact this document was coercion for her release. It is highly likely that the two Canadians were released as a result. As for the two Chinese Americans, being beneficiaries of a fraudulent father, i can understand what was behind their ban on leaving China, which must be obvious. Of course you will not return to China, as by your own admission you fraudulently obtained your driver's licence, which undoubtedly has come to the attention of Chinese authorities.

  405. Whatever you read on the internet treat with a grain of salt. There is no censorship, masses of misinformation and to put it bluntly, a lot of crap. Such a pity. Do your own research and try to come up with an unbiased opinion, but remember to base it on hard evidence, not "someone said"!

  406.  @minibrownliger  the evidence is getting more and more muddy. France has now confirmed cases being hospitalised between 2nd and 16th December, having just tested samples taken at the time, which they retained in a frozen state. Italy also has claims of similar pneumonia in August 2019, long before China and France. Only time will tell, but my opinion is that now it is looking unlikely to have come from Wuhan.

  407. Wrong assumptions, regardless of experience can create substantial differences in results, especially when dealing with a Novel Corona Virus, for which overall historical data is lacking. What i am basically saying is rubbish in, rubbish out. This is something that can bite you in the butt when it is all over, and full information is available. That is when credability is attained or destroyed.

  408. John Bolton has admitted to assisting these terrorist groups, with weaponry, in the middle east.

  409. There is a vast difference between not acquiescing and not being bullied. China will no longer be bullied. Not acquiescing has nothing to do with it. Beijing is very concerned about the virus bringing down these Olympic games, as there are very strict controls in Beijing at the moment, to prevent it. The fear is that the world press will bring the virus to Beijing. In respect to the virus, all countries involved will control their athletes, but who will control the press?

  410. The first correction should be at the beginning, and Stan for one should know.

  411.  @andrewyu7403  it is what it is, as has been for centuries in the history of China. However, it could also be said that the government you say is in exile in Taiwan, is also not a duely elected government by the people of mainland China, Given the choice of the two, who do you think the mainland people of China would vote for?

  412. Let's be clear, Fan Bing Bing was found guilty of tax fraud, not evasion, which has nothing to do with your subject matter, and not related to a single event. It involved hundreds of millions of dollars from overseas, FYI, all trains have provisions for wheelchairs, so these people are not invisible, and i have seen many. I have also seen many other people with disabilities in public, however there are many who remain home. The report on the hypersonic missile is only that, just a report, totally unconfirmed, so should at this point, not even be a point of discussion. This was even beyond the knowledge of China's mainstream media, the Global Times, as confirmed here.

  420. The debacle did not come from either the government or its department of defence. The dabacle was the handling of this matter by the Australian media. Perhaps you better go back and check defence department meetings held in Beijing on 17th February. The government was made aware of the potential of such exercises, which is why the P.M. and the defence minister are suggesting everyone to cool down. So this is clearly a media hype problem, as well as lack of follow up on information of meeting of 17th February.

As you can see there are many twists and turns in this video in an attempt to support a narrative. Oh, by the way, there are thousands of delegates who make up the wider government in Beijing, who like many countries elect their leader. These delegates, are elected by eligible voters to represent them in government, thus this is a democratic process. Anyone can nominate to stand for such elections, as long as they are of good character.

  427. I will remind the audience that this has been occurring for years with rockets from America and Russia, and as was the case, also Skylab. There are no control elements left as all fuel and power is eliminated so cannot be controlled. America does not allow China to be part of the international space station, because they do not want to share technology. However, it is inevitable that China will need to experiment (as America has done in the past) to develop their own technology. We are one people on one earth, and so far as space exploration is concerned, there should always be a way for all nations to work together, for all to benefit and to eliminate risk. Currently, the earths orbit is littered with satellites and other debris, most of which will one day return to earth, and all of it will return uncontrolled. So i am bemused by headlines such as the inclusion of the words "rogue" and "uncontrolled". All of this debris returns uncontrolled, and we always hope remnants land in our oceans.

  428. The reason and existence of NATO is to protect all countries from attack by an enemy. It is and has always been held that Russia is the enemy. So why not find a way to make your enemy your friend, and lessen the need for an alliance which as we all know is run by a non european nation. It will be amazing how much more peace there will be in the world, and bring about a new sense of world order no longer controlled by a single self serving nation.

  429. It is apparent that there are many lunatics in Australian Media, who seem to be oblivious to anything happening beyond the Australian Border. Believe a man like Fauci, they are believing an apprentice. Instead, learn from someone like Zhong Nanshan, who was both the expert on SARS and Covid19. Hey, he understands English. None of these commentators understand or have any notion of this virus. It is extremely contagious, and can kill within two weeks, depending on the inoculin received. I live in China, have been watching this in China and overseas since 3rd January. I cannot believe the lack of support by the media, who seem to be preoccupied with clickbait, and have behaved irresponsibly. Oh, it should not be called Social Distancing, because there is nothing social about it. It would be more apt to call it Physical Distancing! This is its purpose.

My wife refuses to eat in such restaurants, and suggests they should minimally use gloves. She feels food safety should be of a high standard, no matter what the quality of the restaurant.
    2
  432. The difference with Japan is that they tried to hide from the virus due to the pending Olympic Games. Once it was deferred, the real extent of the infections was known. So Japan us not a good comparison. Nontheless, they need to continue the high levels of testing, to catch the virus early. Some shutdowns may be inevitable.

  433. OMG, pop up messages on my mobile phone, on my wife's mobile phone, my wife's family's mobile phones? All we get are health and drive safely messages. Oh, by the way, whatever house you own in China is covered by a certificate of title, which cannot be taken away. There are laws in respect to the land lease, which will be renewed at it's termination. So the building, even though built on leased land, cannot be touched without adequate compensation. You need to check this out before such nefarious comment, Oh, by the way, i own my house here in China! I suggest you seek some education about the real China you seem to know little about.
    2
  434. You guys should know very well, that if someone lays allegations against a senior official in China, an extensive investigation must immediately take place to validate or otherwise the claims made. The Chinese system does not allow for the claimants public comment during the investigation, at which time they should remain silent about the issue, exactly as Peng is doing. I suggest the media stops with their sensationalism of this and await outcomes, other then another attempt at the creation of issues between the U.S. and China. There is a court legal system in China, and there is no place for outside influences such the media to play any role in this. So Peng remains silent!

  439. Let's think about the performance of Morrison and his Government from the country's position prior to his takeover. He has clearly demonstrated anti China behaviour following briefings from the U.S., along with his favourite buddy, Peter Dutton (the Minister for War), and call him that because that is all he thinks about as Minister for Defence. Dutton has visited Washington on at least three separate ocassions, fir briefings at the White House, starting as Minister for Home Affairs. How many times has he been to or contacted China to fact check this briefing information. ZERO! The same goes for Morrison, who has had much opportunity, but no action. As a result of his verbal diarrhea, lets not forget a Victorian Premier who had a similar problem, Australia has lost minimally a billion dollars worth of trade with China, with a relationship which has moved from Australian Naval ships visiting Chinese Ports, and military interaction between the two countries, to absolutely no contact between the two countries, other then to subscribe to abuse and accusation without fact checking and verification. So what did Australia lose? As widely reported, 600 million dollars of Barley sales (now being supplied by the U.S.), a large quantity of beef sales (but not entirely, much of which is now supplied by the U.S.), Western Australian Rock Lobster (Tasmanian lobster was not included as a banned product), Australian Wine (which is loved by many chinese people), Black coal (but not entirely), and potentially LPG, for which China is Australias biggest customer, (which will likely be replaced with gas from new fields in Kazakhstan or somewhere close to this region). At no time during any period has any minister from the government gone to China to address these issues with the Chinese Government. So who has benefited and who has not. Clearly the U.S. has gained an additional billion dollars worth of sales, France has gained substantially with wine sales, with a spread of other countries gaining other sales, all of which is a net loss to mainly Primary Industry. Further, due to AUKUS, we are now an enemy of France. I am sure further advances with the anti China rhetoric every possible moment in Parliament could advance Australia's position with China to no imports at all. There are numerous other issues that could be cited, but most importantly what is missing is communication, and the China hate (it can be heard in Morrison's parliamentary question time) should cease. Australia's position should be one of how do we recover what is lost, and what did we get from the U.S. as a result of being their lapdog? Likely U.S. military bases in the Northern Territory. This will make Australia the 51st State of the U.S., or has everyone missed that possible scenario? Think about it!

  441.  @q_q123  i agree by the dictionary definition of infected to include contaminated, i think the word contaminated would be more apt. Futhermore, the dog was exposed to high levels of the virus, and these findings seem to indicate that the dogs immune system was destroying the virus, with this low reading being what is left in its system. I think this event was published way to soon. On the premise of these results, it could also be reasonable to suggest that every mouse, rat and possibly even some insects in Wuhan, could also be infected (or could that be contaminated). Where does this stop?

They are checking all people who are non residents or new residents, regardless of being foreign or chinese.

  448.  @AG-ig8uf  you seem to be under the impression, you buy the airline, you take up the debt. That is incorrect. You buy the assets, take over leases and pay any goodwill, if there is any value there. The federal government is still a substantial stakeholder in QANTAS. There is little difference. The qld gov only wants part of a stake.
    2
  449.  @AG-ig8uf  you do not buy the airline with the debt, you take over the assets. Do not buy the company, unless there is a cash back transaction to cover excess debt over value. I am well aware of corporate law, as i have intimate knowledge of account p & p.

  452. If you are not gullible, you will realise every one of Zelenskyy's speeches are prewritten by US scriptwriters, giving him the opportunity for a one sided propaganda event. Therefore demonstrating he is a puppet for America. This is the same man who outlawed opposition parties, members of the opposition in Parliament, arrested his closest opposition opponent, outlawed the Russian language, and approves of the AZOV battallion attack on Ukrainian people as well as Russian people in Eastern Ukraine. I totally disagree with this war, but have a major concern about America's political and other interests in Ukraine. They are expendable in the eyes of the US, right to the last man standing. Even the Biden family has interests in Ukraine, like many other politicians. Ultimately it is all about money and power. THINK ABOUT IT. Look at some reality like Patrick Lancaster.

As you are aware, the west spreads nothing but lies by manipulation and falsification of stories, for its own benefit, which is not subject to scrutiny or control other then by people like yourselves. However, in China, it is illegal to post such content on the internet or publicize false stories full of lies. Just some food for thought!

  459. If the virus was circulating elsewhere in the world before its discovery in Wuhan, then that is factual information that needs to be known and investigated. This is also the World Health Organization, not the American Health Organization, as it seems that America who had already announced in March 2020 of its withdrawal from WHO, is being singularly upset by this investigation, but seems to want the world to only listen to it. Of course the world has already seen how this virus was dealt with in USA. The WHO investigation is non political, but appears to be made political on this interview, by Tim who can be seen to be attempting the use of the American narrative which was used for deflection purposes. In short, Tim is trying to turn a purely scientific investigation into a political issue.

  460.  @YaMumsSpecialFriend  i recommend you check your history, as the only place invaded by Russia in 2014 following the coup, was Crimea, which was done to protect Russian Military and Naval assets, as well as ensuring Russia's access to the Black Sea.

  463. Let's not judge this too harshly. Whilst students practice reversing within the boundaries of a driving school, after initial competency training, the teacher will allow the student to complete reversing by themselves, as if they were in an exam, to develop self confidence. Many of these driving schools crudely modify the operation of the accelerator pedal, as a speed limiter, be it a piece of wood under the pedal, or something else. It appears likely that this dislodged and got stuck with the pedal down, with the car at extremely high revs. This would make it difficult to brake in reverse to cause it to stall, and it is likely that the inexperienced student spent his time trying to dislodge the jammed pedal. I have been at these driving schools, and have seen this. I hope people gain a little more understanding, and am sure the student felt terrified.

No disinformation, but a time element for research to ascertain more information on this virus, for what was still a new corona virus.
    2
  470. There are way too many unknown variables to hold any one person, organization or government responsible for what at the time was an unknown pandemic. Thus it would be a waste of time, not just in China, but also anywhere else in the world. Of course such actions is in the best interests of lawyers as it keeps them employed as litigators, and gives them the opportunity to exploit laws in China and elsewhere.

  472. I do not agree with what is happening, however it should be noted that there is a battalion of Nazis in the Ukraine Military. Also the previous Minsk agreement between the NATO (includung U.S.) and Russia was broken by NATO, thus Putin had submitted a proposal for withdrawal of NATO from its borders as well as guarantees that Ukraine not join Nato, but remain neutral, to which Biden's response was not to negotiate, but to flatly refuse. Corner a Rat and it will fight back!

Additionally, there was a U.S. Navy amphibious assault ship, USS Kearsarge, in close proximity of this event in the Baltic Sea at the time, which would also be well equipped to carry out the sabotage. As a result the evidence, here it is much clearer then when the U.S. falsified reasons for invading Iraq.

Aren't we interferring with these countries political systems, and their right to determine what is good for them? Perhaps the money spent on these submarines may have been better spent on Australian economic coercion. Nonetheless, that is economic coercion, not AGGRESSION!

  479.  @chrizzle6222  you obviously went to China with a feeling of being a superior person. China has substantially greater numbers of video cameras strategically placed to monitor the streets where there are insufficient police to do so. Its theme is peace and harmony for all and its government is focused on anti corruption. A smart Australian government could have made best use of China following the pandemic, but belittles itself with its commentary. Many leaders including Morrison has not been to China, and therefore knows only what he has been told, in most cases by people who think, believe and assume, etc based on their third party knowledge.

  481. I do not think the Russian Reserves wiil be touched by the U.S. for several reasons. The first being that laws must be created through the houses of government that can withstand any challenge, which is almost impossible. Secondly, the U.S. $ has always been seen as the safehaven currency of the world, and the impact of creation of such laws giving the government the power to confiscate anyones money as it desires will cause a serious international backlash in the world of finance, and a likely crash of the $US. This backlash can surmount to trillions of dollars, substantially more then the few billion dollars being debated about. This will amount to a no confidence vote in the Government of the US.

Let's wait and see, as Germany is headed for collapse but could be saved by China.

  493. @🌟༻🅹🅰🆈🅵🅰༺ ✓ • 5 years ago i cannot say they appreciate their federal government, but they are not unhappy with it. A government which persues corruption at all levels, and acts against that corruption is seen in China as a government working for the people. Like all governments, it makes mistakes or makes bad decisions at times, but will do everything in its power to remedy these faults.

  494. Lets cut all the crap, including the rubbish about feng shui. This building is now over 25 years old, has steel columns filled with concrete and is not fitted with dampers. It is likely that small cracks have occurred inside the columns, which cause kinetic energy transference which are not absorbed by dampers. When this building was erected it was done at express rate, and the concrete inside the steel columns is now likely to move. Concrete and steel have different expansion and contraction rates when heated and/or cooled, thus there will be minute separations occurring inside the columns, and even the possibility of minute cracks. If this movement inside a column occurs very close to the ground, the effect of the kinetic energy at very high levels will be much more strongly felt, as there is no absorption of this energy. It should still be safe.

Water usage in the manufacturing is extremely high, and this became a problem, reducing output. It had nothing to do with the pandemic!

Read it again, as i have stated, one way with the punctuation and one way without, and there is a change in context. American translation to English is often different to Chinese translation to English. One also needs to account for this to have been a concensual relationship, going back ten years. You also say, this is basic grammar. I will point out that she was also poorly educated, which can be seen quite clearly when you read the whole post.

  531. @🌟༻🅹🅰🆈🅵🅰༺ ✓ • 5 years ago i have been here for most of eight years, and am only aware of one incidence ofvorgan theft. Off memory it was a university student in Chongqing, who was drugged out, and lost a kidney as a result. That is criminal activity according to the police, fully investigated and perpetrators persued. Not surprised if they receive their info from NTD which is owned by Falun Gong, which of course is anti China. They may even watch people like China Uncensored, which when investigated is also controlled by Falun Gong. There are in fact many anti China Youtubers who have in recent times come under the Falun Gong influence.

What makes it worst is that he admits to lying.

What will the world say if the outcome is it did not originate in China, but was first diagnosed as a corona virus in China? I can well imagine many countries in denial, claiming conspiracies and falsely created findings.

Continued attempts to destabilize China in any way possible. America is run by Lunatics, and is likely to enter its own civil war before the reunification of Taiwan and the Peoples Republic of China.

  539.  @passenger3  reunification is better then the current autocracy in place, to which a greater part of the people in Taiwan will attest. Ask them, and then tell me they do not want it. It is only American propaganda trying to force the narrative of the current government, but it will change in time, when new leaders come through, and will actually put it to the people of Taiwan. Your "its that simple", has no substance to it, other then more propaganda nonsense. You better zip it.

  540.  Billy Thornton  it is quite apparent you have not researched, or take only the view of the narrative of those who follow your thoughts. Yes, there are education camps in Xinjiang and chances are that some people are being coerced into going there. But you need to understand the the level of intrusion and influence of terrorism which plagued China and in particular Xinjiang from 1996 to 2016, which has led to this. As for genocide, people are not murdered, there is no forced sterilization and there the China 1 child policy never applied to the people of Xinjiang. I suggest you look more at information from both sides keeping an open mind, remembering that many of these reports are from third parties based on heresay, but not supported by strong evidence. I could continue, but feel i am talking to someone who is very narrow minded,

  551.  @thethoth1755  i suggest you take a close look at the tens of thousands of said Vaping deaths in the U.S,, long before outbreaks in China. Funny how these only occurred in America, isn't it. Nothing you have said is proof. It is inuendo. You are obviously a Trump supporter, as it was him sprooking what you are attempting to do now. But let me remind you, he always said, he had this under control, from the very first cases. Of course, there was no financial gain from stopping it, when we consider that there was a lot of money to be made in the American healthcare industry. I suggest you start opening your mind.

You say "the same rules as everyone else". As long as these are American rules!

  559.  @rollingdownfalling  chen Lei was unfortunate to get caught up with a group of foreign news reporters, leading to inadvertent disclosure of information. Take note that a few foreign correspondents including ABC Australia, quickly left China, leaving a fellow Australian to face the music. ABC Australia should know more then they are letting the public know, as should the Australian Government. It is unfortunate that law in China does not recognize what may be accidental. if information of matters of security were divulged, then they are guilty (no grey areas), however there may be leniency in the sentencing process. I was glad to see Paul Keating stand up to be heard, for he was correct, and Australia is a vassal state to the US.

  560.  @rollingdownfalling  i can see you actually believe the distorted narrative. Ask the ABC and David Hill about the Beijing events. They swept it under the rug, not to be involved, and where is that reporter on China now, who was last seen in Taiwan, to stay out of the reach of Questions by the Chinese police, the reason for his hasty departure. He and at least one Canadian quickly left China to avoid questions re Cheng Lei. it is okay, you need not concern yourself about me, because the police interest is only in people who do the wrong thing.

The first example may be to test whole communities, to go through a process of elimination, isolating those with the virus as they go. Draconian? Maybe, but if it is effective, who could argue with it? The priority is to STOP THE VIRUS SPREADING.

Therefore that is far more then the suggestion of 10,000 or so.

Last time i was here in May, it took less then 15 minutes to get tested in this same area i am in now. I guess you probably lived in Nanshan area, where i know a few other people had some difficulty getting tested. So it appears to be some localities. Sorry to hear you leaving a well paid job, but perhaps you needed to find another location for testing. I have also bern tested in Huaqiangbei, and no issues with the waiting time, which was also very quick. So are you Eric from Crossing China?

I will let you into a secret. The U.S. is sponsoring many YouTube influencers, through the NED, by the State Department, to ramp up the negative rhetoric. I am retired and live in China, and i loathe the absolute rubbish i see, including those who refer to the CCP, which is nonexistent. There is only the CPC which is short for the Communist Party of China. You see, there is no "Chinese" in the name, which is another western creation, another dig at China. I can assure you that western disinformation about China far outways anything i have seen from the people of China or even from YouTube creators on China disseminating positive information. So tell me why this is so? There may be some people who are paid as part of the so called 50 cent army, but i have never met one.

  579.  @JK_JK_JK  all i can say is that the term can be applied equally to all those employed by the west, although there is likely to be some disparity in payments. As for me, i am too honest to accept payment for my commentary for what i believe to be blatant lies. I am very much in agreement with the policy in China to deal with misinformation, which probably ought to be looked at for serious breeches by western nations. It is illegal to disseminate misinformation on the net in China. Such laws have the potential to return repute to what may be read on the internet.

Points were removed from this years tournanent due to the discriminatory behaviour of the All English Tennis club, which defies contractual arrangements with the WTP and ATP. There are no reasons for deductions for 2021.

  620. DAAAAAA! The Wuhan institute of Virology is a just that, a viral study centre. And this centre closely studies corona viruses from bats, thus it would be obvious to even the lamest of people that they would have bats there. How do you think the head of this centre was nick named " bat woman". However, the bats kept there actually come from the bat caves on Zhoushan island, which is thousands of miles or kilometres away from bats which carry the corona virus which started this pandemic. Zhoushan is located a little south of Shanghai on the East coast, where as the bats with the closest link to the virus come from the south west of China, Yunnan province and also the northern most areas of adjoining asian countries. However, don't let facts get in the way of reality or even a world scoop. It could make a good story and after all, stories (even fairytales) can make money for these media organizations.

At the moment, they are the laughing stock of the world with their handling of the virus and the conclusion to their presidential election. Both are a disgrace. And now Australia demonstrates the arrogance of a formerly respected army, with the war crimes report, including the murder of children. We are in one world, and all need to learn a bit about tolerance and behaviour. China's motives are simple, international trade and respect for it and its laws.

  632. I was so disappointed with this video, because although your focus was supposed to be the truths and the lies, you are only feeding on one thing, because it is apparent you have a grudge. I remind you of the reports on Youtube by CGTN, an official Chinese Government Television Station, which was reporting about what was happening in Wuhan in early January, and continues to do so today. Your supposed resource ignore much information, which is retrievable on Baidu and other Chinese internet platforms, so you are either ignorant or uninformed, sitting back in your comfortable chair, back there in America. GET REAL, AND START TALKING ABOUT SOLUTIONS, OTHER THEN SPREADING HATE ABOUT THE COUNTRY, WHICH HOLDS YOUR CHILDS HERITAGE. Think about how they will grow up in America!

  633.  @Em22-wtf  i have it all on Wechat, however much of it is in Chinese. You should be able to resource it from CGTN. These two guys are supposedly good with their ability to read chinese, so shouldn't have missed anything. Look at the big gap in his timeline, from 1st January to about 18th January or so. I am able to translate most of the information i have, as i have learnt to use many different tools to do this. Laowhy86 has such a grudge that his business was shut down, that he has a hate for the government. In the time you replied to my comments, and the time you responded, you did not do very much research, so i suggest you get back to it, and come up with your own judgement on the issue.
    1
  634.  @Em22-wtf  his business was shut down for variety of reasons, with which he was unwilling to deal, for either financial or other reasons. In a court, i could easily show this evidence, but not on this platform. I see you use a PhD, after your name. If that is real, you will know that you need to research a subject, before you become an authority on it, or to gain the knowledge. I cannot even show pictures here. There are 6,081 articles on this subject from early January. So i suggest if you want to see them, go to the following. SEARCH: Baidu: latest news on unknown pneumonia found in Wuhan. The following is an extract from CCTV news media dated 5th January. (Translated to English) Wuhan unknown cause of pneumonia has ruled out SARS as of 0800 on January 5, 2020. Wuhan has reported a total of 59 cases of viral pneumonia diagnosis of unknown causes, of which 7 cases of severe patients, life signs of patients in general stable, all patients are currently in Wuhan medical institutions to receive isolation treat....... There are, as i have said, 6,081 articles on this, all in chinese, which i wont list. What i have said here was an exclusion of everything that happened during the period, early January to 18th January, on his timeline. Any rational thinker would question this.

  656.  @tlhalefobriandlamini3817  Correct, as this missile was carrying cluster bombs. The point i am making is that missiles which are shot down are frequently the cause of unintended death and destruction, as there is no control on where they land, in this instance being the centre of the city. Be they Russian or be they Ukrainian, they are being used for propaganda purposes, on ocassions. I am sure, this particular missile was shot down by republican forces. Always try to connect the dots.

  657.  @tlhalefobriandlamini3817  i did not say the forces in Donetsk were at fault, and the original target was unknown, which could have been miles away. What this event was, was unintended collateral damage. It was unfortunate to land where it did. This type of event has been common throughout the Ukraine on both sides, so we the public need to be able to see through both sides propaganda. Yes, i understood its contents were cluster bombs, of which Ukraine has complained are being used by the Russians. Hypocrisy at its worst!

  659. China will continue to try to unite and unify the two Chinas peacefully. The current political party leading Taiwan at the moment is very heavily financed and coerced by the U.S.A., with it's leader having spent long periods in the U.S.A. Remember, Taiwan has only had a semblance of democracy since the KMT took it over in 1949, but after the introduction of elections, the U.S. has heavily financed Taiwan to be anti P.R.C., given its desire to reunify. These days, the KMT, currently the opposition party in Taiwan, is much more likely to agree to reunification, which the U.S. does not want. It should be noted however, that China is Taiwans largest trading partner, substantially greater then the U.S. In reality, the U.S. is using the Taiwan issue for its own purposes in an endeavour to follow the RAND Report, to prevent China becoming the worlds number one economic power, to retain its hegemony over the world economy and the $US dollar. Remember, always follow the money!

  661. I can tell you here in China, we also have testing problems. Patients showing signs of this disease have been sent for CT scans, which show clear evidence of the virus, while tests are proving negative. Two patients were checked in Guangxi Province like this, in the last week. Following the CT scanning, they were again tested, and found to be positive. This demonstrates that the test is inconclusive, with the likelihood of many people slipping through the testing procedure.

  663. There is too much missing information here so that it is clear as to these events. Also there appears to be misreporting for the purposes of sensationalism by reporters. Missing information includes but not limited to a medical team sent to investigate the outbreak from Beijing on or about 31st December. The suppression of information was by the Wuhan medical authorities, because they did not know what the virus was. Dr Li did not make a public posting of information, which was in fact information of a pathology report of one of his patients which indicated the patient was infected with the SARS virus. He warned his students and his peers to be aware on a wechat group, which resulted in a screenshot by one person in the group who posted this to social media, which went viral. He was not picked up by the police, but was asked to come to see the police. The police in Wuhan have also been dressed down by the public security heads in Beijing, for lack of investigation. I live in China, and i have been watching these events unfold since late December/early January, so have become both aware and informed of this situation. I have always held a high opinion of four corners, and in particular of many matters which has brought to light, but am disappointed on the reporting of this event, which still has a long way to go. I hope you will acknowledge that perhaps your report was based on limited information that you had. However, if you really wanted to do research, you can find more then 6000 articles on this issue in a Baidu search.

  664. It was mentioned that Sinovac efficacy rate was 51%, which may or may not be right, but the statement of its effectiveness is 100% wrong. That is because efficacy is misinterpreted, even by people working in the medical field. The simplest way to look at it is that 51 out of every 100 people are fully protected by the vaccine from serious illness. In fact the 51% quoted was the lowest of reported rates, with initial official controlled trial data showing efficacy rate of around 80%, and many countries confirming this. So the 51% as quoted, is not an official controlled trial number, and should not be quoted out of context.

  665. Do not underestimate China's ability to prevent mass infections, even with omicron. They handle it extremely well, having been through their mass testing. If infected people and/or close contacts are isolated or quarantined, community spread cannot continue, and will therefore cease after a few weeks. As far as totally opening to the world, as with all things pertaining to China, they are not in a rush and they will wait until it is safe. Remember, only one person in China died from the virus in 2021, and the governments attitude is that life is more important then money. Eventually the pandemic will be over, and China will again open fully. China is not officially closed, but maintains it's quarantine requirements for all arrivals from overseas.

  667.  @blackswan1983  it can be done if spread is stopped, but people need to comply. If people want freedom, this is the way it can be done. As it stands now, even at 80% vaccination rate which equates to only 66% of the population, the exposure to the 34% is too high, infection levels will remain high and lockdowns will continue. Vaccination may not stop catching or spreading the virus, but will likely reduce the effect and shorten recovery time. The aim of the vaccination is to reduce the likely pressure on hospitals.

  668.  @thomasgrabkowski8283  correct! There is currently an outbreak in Pujian, Fujian province of the Delta strain. Watch how it is handled. The problem with the Delta strain, which Australia still has not yet identified, is that it creates many asymptomatic cases, whereby people do not have symptoms but are spreaders. This has been the problem in Melbourne and Sydney, because all the focus has been on symptomatic people to be tested. Meanwhile the infection runs rampant. In Pujian, 16 out of 22 positive cases were Asymptomatic. In China everyone in the city is tested, not just symptomatic. I really don't know how to get this through to our health officials who should be smart enough to look a little further then the end of their noses.

  689. Don't be fooled by the narrator with all the negative rhetoric. He mentions that some media have disclosed that Wal-Mart had closed 80 stores in China between 2016 and 2020. What he failed to mention was that Wal-Mart also opened 115 new stores between 2015 and 2017 (refer BBC) and according to the China Daily, would open another 500 stores and depots after 2019. So the truth appears to be that Wal-Mart is expanding its operations in China, very contrary to the narrative given. How many more of these has he not discussed. I'm only presenting facts to promote thought and for people not to be so easily led by the deliberate delivery of negativity about China. There are more positives then negatives, then meets the eye.

I am starting to see Australians who may well be on U.S. Payroll in Australia's parliamentary houses acting in America's interests, not the interests of Australia.

  716.  @leviathansnemesis3742  they already see it, as little of that is censored. Censorship on the internet is more about deterring political influence and behaviour, like you see in Hong Kong. The violence and damage seen there, which the chinese people get to see in any event, is bad enough for a population of 7 million. Imagine if that was to happen with a population of 1.347 billion people. It would be anarchy. Of course Hong Kong has been heavily influenced by America, and its covert financing there. This was initially the problem in Xinjiang, which was heavily influenced and infiltrated by terrorist organizations, which led to the events of today, being detention centres and re-education. Do your own research, and you will see the problems there pre 2016. America is demonstrating to the world at the moment, how divided and even intolerant their style of democracy can be. China pushes the elements of peace and harmony amongst all people, which really is not such a bad thing. Oh, it is the CPC, not CCP.
    1
  717.  @leviathansnemesis3742  they were not stabbing, there were many terrorist bomb attacks, but not restricted to Xinjiang, also Guangzhou, Kunming and Beijing, apart from those in the major cities in Xinjiang. It had little to do with CPC not bringing prosperity, but was well orchestrated with the assistance of al-Qaeda, with its use of the internet and in particular Facebook. This organisation also used the internet and Facebook to stage the attacks on the two towers in New York. So maybe you have a greater understanding of some if the restrictions imposed. Many internet sitesm including USA news services can be freely connected to via the internet, without a VPN. A lot is not blocked.

The current lead by Biden over Trump is approximately 15,000, not 1,000 or so as you may believe. People like you listen to too much political posturing, and do not have the ability to research and think for yourself. Go back to the drawing board. Only a miracle can will allow a win for Trump. The only fact on which you were correct was, yes there will be a difference, but will not be that great, and it is possible to be up to 1,000 either way.

  735.  @michaelgodding8572  although they are under the same umbrella, you will find evasion is more about understatement of income (by the example that was quoted here), whereby fraud is when a network or company is set up to deliberately hide income, which is what was done in the case of Fan Bing Bing, whereby a company was setup through which was channelled hundreds of millions of dollars of foreign income, held overseas, but not declared in China.

  749. Let me suggest this idea of War was planned a long time ago, with personnel from allied nations briefed. To validate what i am suggesting is re my home country Australia. Peter Dutton, in the position of Minister for Home affairs went to the US for a briefing, in the middle of an epidemic crisis. He returned to Australia with the virus. Shortly after that he was moved to the position of Minister for Defence. He has, along with the Australian Prime Minister, made several more trips to the White House, leading to the AUKUS announcement. However, subliminally he has been pushing the message in Australia that the country must prepare for war! One does not make such a statement without some evidence, which is being kept from the Australian people, because it is evident that America is preparing allies for war. The way i see it, the US wants this proxy war to weaken Russia, to the point where the US could move in at any time, in an attempt to take control of Russia. Feasible or not?

  763.  @thedejectedape953  the only part i do not agree with is the reduction in spread by being vaccinated. People who are vaccinated can still catch the virus and spread it, but there is a more rapid recovery period. Although the length of time for virus spread may be is shorter, this current variant is substantially more contagious. You suggest i may be a little too pessimistic. But i am also not narrow in mind and thought. Remember, very low percentages of the populations in African countries are vaccinated, giving the virus plenty of opportunity to mutate to other variants. So the merry-go-round could continue for quite a long time, with the current vaccines being tested to their extremes. Yes, i will remain pessimistic, but hope for a quicker rather then later ending to this pandemic,

  764.  @thedejectedape953  i was just watching an interview with a south african scientist who first studied the omicron virus in South Africa, and he was asked where he thought the world be in another 12 months. His reply was, probably discussing the newest variant, Again, he hopes not and so do i. I do not pay too much attention to some of these studies as i do not have much faith in the control parameters that have been set. Studies must be worldwide, independent and consistent, and can only be done over time. Most results in Google, may be indicative and could be the result of control group studies. So it may be indicative, and i hope they are correct, but i am not so sure.

  765. Correction: there have been many lockdowns in China, or does Larry only get his information about these from the media. Lockdowns have occurred in almost every city in China, some expanded over large areas, and some localized. Recent lockdowns have occurred in Shenzhen, a city not much smaller then Shanghai, adjoining Hong Kong, which quite frankly was infecting the mainland through trade. It is apparent from the conversation (you can review it), if not affecting America, it is not newsworthy, thus not known about.

  767. Perhaps Andrew Bolt should look a little further then just perhaps, maybe, and a conglomeration of theories, on which to base his assessment, which could associate American Labs ( closed suddenly around this time without explanation), war games held in Wuhan a few weeks prior in close proximity at which american army servicemen competed, and so on. The final out come will be that there is no evidence to implicate any of them at present without positive proof. So in the end, all we have is contrivances and conspiracy theories, none of which all reasonably minded people in this world could positively agree with. It will be a long time, if at all, before the truth is known

There nothing in the 6 points you have made validate anything, as they are all either nonsense or allegations based without fact. Very quickly, bats are not sold in China, the lab is a research centre just as the CSIRO in Australia has one in Geelong. There was a massive spread of misinformation on the chinese internet which brought about censorship. The human to human transmission was known and advised to the world by both china and the WHO, in spite of USA claims. If information is known about the virus and its origin by any country, it should be shared. There is a president and his secretary of state spreading absolute garble, without evidence, while their own intelligence agencies publicly announce that there is no such information. This is the type of rhetoric which has been coming from these pretentious leaders since January, and see where America is now!

  776. Whilst listening to what amounted to a lot of ranting and raving, i was waiting for the evidence which was stated as leading to this conclusion. Yes, there is the institute in Wuhan, which was actually studying bats from Zhoushan, Zhejiang almost a thousand kilometres away and they were researching Corona Viruses, not SARS, as there are a number of Corona Viruses which come from Bats. There was no evidence or ill researchers with the virus, but only a statement from the US State Department, which already has its own narrative about China. Conclusions must be based on evidence, not heresay. Oh, by the way, where did you find this clown, James Morrow? Never heard of him.

It is possible for the virus to survive for some time in that environment where it was discovered, but in my view not possible to reproduce, as it requires an appropriate cell, in which to "sporn". Yes, in China some pets were thrown off buildings and killed in the early stages of the virus. I still hold my position, that the results should not have been released until conclusive. Yes, as i said earlier, a product of its environment. People should always be careful and aware at these times.

  782. It is important to note, you can only vaccinate 100 million people in 5 days if there are 100 million people who want to be vaccinated quickly, remembering that being vaccinated in China is a choice. This is a demonstration of the support by the Chinese people of their governments and health system. The daily target for vaccinations is currently set for 20 million per day throughout China. This may still increase, but the government wants to retain conservative targets. So at this rate, all the Chinese people will have had their first vaccination by the middle of July.

  790.  @PropheticShadeZ  I don't agree one bit with what has happened between Russia and Ukraine. However, as a result the price of oil is skyrocketing, thus it adds to inflation and hit everyone's hip pocket. I am trying to understand why the high oil price, given the US only imports 7% of its oil from Russia, and Germany has said no. So i am saying, one man calls for these sanctions, which has little effect on his country, and everyone else rightfully or wrongly follows. Additionally, when you think about it, cast your memory back to the low oil pricing during the pandemic. I recall the Australian Government stating that it would purchase a massive reserve of, and i can't think of the exact number, but i think it was 1 million barrels. So why has the federal government not stated its plans of alleviating pricing for the Australian public by release of some or all of this oil, or are they going to use it for political purposes to buy votes at the next election. Think outside of the square!

And Russia's military is not up to the task? I suggest you watch this space over the next week. It is apparent your news is received from only one source, nothing being independent. You guys seem to have forgotten 8 years of war in the East of Ukraine. These points i make are clearly an indication of the level of censorship, limiting your ability to gain knowledge, or you are being very selective. As for the interview with the Lowie institute, consider the reality being Zelensky was meant what he said! If you guys were not so intelligent, i would claim you were presenting misinformation. But of course, you do have intelligence, thus you are obviously into spreading disinformation. Do a better job of research, and state both sides of what could be in discussions, a debate, rather then your one sided narrative.

  801. I am an Australian retiree, married to my Chinese wife, and following living for some time in Longgang, we are now living in Binyang, Guangxi, which is a very rural city. I am about to apply for my next visa, which will be for two years, but am not troubled by this notion. We own our own house, and yes i did got my Chinese driver's licence, having studied the laws of chinese motoring, passing the exam with a result on my first try of well over 90%. This is a rural area, and there maybe one or two foreigners in this city, with whom i do not have any contact. My Chinese is very bad, and here is even worse, because other languages spoken here include Binyang Hua and Hakka. Living costs are very cheap, accounting for less then 50% of my pension. I have adapted to communication in other forms, mainly being sign language, with the ocassional use of chinese words, and at other times if necessary using Baidu Translate, which i find is a very useful tool. When i first met my wife, she had no knowedge of english at all, which i am constantly teaching her, and she also studies hard on line, thus our communication is very good. I have now been very well accepted into her very large family of 6 sisters and one brother, after receiving strong objections by them prior to our marriage. I am also fully accepted by her parents, who go out of their way to make me feel comfortable when we visit them, as well as ensuring the food they cook will be to my satisfaction also. I love living here in rural China. There is much more i could tell, and would be happy to advise if people would like to know.

Sure, China is always looking for resources, but has no intention of population relocation overseas. If it wanted to do that, it has plenty of opportunity to do so in south east asia.

  813. Bernardi is dumb. 0.42% death rate? Yes, against current numbers, but the deaths are from people contracting this disease more then 2 weeks ago, so relate to the number of cases at that time perhaps about 30 cases. So we currently show 8 deaths, makes you reconsider the rate. I have followed this since the 3rd January, and can categorically say, this is not just like the flu. It is much worse, and that is for someone with mild symptoms. I am aware of a 17 school girl, perfectly healthy dying, overseas, in spite of good medical attention. Australian data is in its infancy, thus cannot be relied on. We must look at how it has progressed elsewhere as to our actions and solutions, even at the expense of economy. If the world economy contracts as a result, which now appears inevitable, Australia will fall into the same category without choice. We are too small as a nation to create any significant effects in the worlds economy.

It is always easy to be selective about stories of individuals who had problems with claims of violence. It can often be seen this happens on both sides of politics. Before any final conclusions are made about the so called fraudulent software, lets wait for the verification of the manual count being done in the state of Georgia. If the software was fraudulent then it will become clear and demonstrate quite transparently, rather then believing claims of lawyers working for one side or the other. I never lie, as is the claim of this Trump lawyer, so this will inevitably put all claims she has one way or the other to sleep, and either prove her to be honest, or just another liar. Lawyers are the greatest spinners of fairytale in the world as they need to try to convince judges of what could be, without any reasonable doubt. Once facts are validated, it will bring an end to the fairytales. Facts cannot be changed.

  830. I would suggest you research appropriately before believing everything in this video. The power supply issues in Hunan province has nothing to do with black coal production, but is about exceeding supply in the middle of winter, when the demand is at its highest. The restrictions quoted in the video, were the restrictions put in place for Hunan province, and not other provinces. Yes, it was likely that the problems in Zhejiang province were a direct result of restrictions on Australian coal. The two major products which are unaffected are liquid natural gas (which barely rated a mention in this video) and iron ore. It should also be noted that Australian beef in general was not banned, but was restricted to a number of suppliers due to anomolies which needed rectification. These should have already been dealt with, and if completed, trade exports to China reinstated. Certainly, more research was needed on Australian beef.

  836. He who complains about foreign interference, embarks on foreign interference with the use of threats. This man has demonstrated to be a prolific liar, just like his boss, and should stay out of the business of our and every other country. If people really understood Victoria' signing onto the Belt and Road inititiative, they would see it is more about the potential of local involvement in belt and road infrastructure projects around the world, for which Victoria could tender. So, it is about opportunity, for the State of Victoria.

  837. I have contacted many Australian companies in Australia to do business in China, as i live there, and am Australian. None seem interested, which leaves me astounded. All say, we have plans in place, but i know there products are still not available in China. I tried for several years to find a reliable beef source in Australia, as i had some very large ready to go customers in Shenzhen. There was always an excuse given.

  840.  @TYsdrawkcaB  So when was it required for a country to purchase Nuclear Submarines to counter a country offering finance for projects? I will again repeat myself, the use of the word aggression is used very loosely without examples, and you cannot give me an example of aggression leading to such a requirement,
    1
  841.  @TYsdrawkcaB  very simple, show me an example of chinese aggression justifying the purchase of nuclear submarines. Obviously English is not yout native tongue.

  842.  @TYsdrawkcaB  i think you will find most of my errors are typographical ones, caused by typing one fingered on a small screen, and not proof reading. But, I'll live with that! Oh, and of course you can't trust China because the Americans say it. So, do you think we should trust America?

  844.  @chrizzle6222  undoubtedly you were a self conscious tourist going to tourist locations but not knowing or understanding the people, and unable to understand the language. It is quite understandable that most people in western nations are extremely brain washed by governments only through differences in ideologies. The China of today is very different from the China of yesterday. The level of autocracy is no greater, contrary to popular belief. The only politician in Australia who entered into a none binding memorandum of understanding with China on its Belt and Road initiatives was Dan Andrews who did so only after a visit to China.

  846. Only Qingdao was locked down, not the entire country. Around ten to eleven million people, being the total population of Qingdao were tested over the period of a week. No additional infections were discovered as a result of the testing.

  847. It is quite apparent how out of date you are with what happens in China, and Chinese laws. To bring you up to date, China now has Good Samaritan laws which prevents law suits for assisting a person in need, such as accidents. Secondly, although there are still some kidnappings, it has reduced and if it is ignorance or other on your part, it happens in all parts of the world, not exclusive to China. Police are very harsh with kidnappers when they are discovered. There is little in the way of suppression of information of these events in the news, as it is always freely available on many of the news platforms.

  848. A country is its people. The military is there to protect the people of his country. So his oath as a member of the military is to his country. This oath is not made to a General with political aspirations, using the army as his tool to gain political power. Most Myanmar soldiers are currently in defiance of their primary oath to protect their country.

  849. The U.S. still uses its threat of sanctions in an attempt to maintain its dominance Which part of BRICs countries and potentially 41 more, making up more then 50% of international currency transactions, will not use $US, did she not understand? China does not want RMB to become the new Reserve currency, which is her only basis of assumptions.

  850. I agree with you. The Good Samaritan Laws introduced in China in more recent times, are not widely known about. It will be a long time before things change. My wife, being a traditional chinese woman in China, is not aware of this law. She just fears involvement, mainly because of scams. I was pleased however that she would at least call the police or ambulance, in a situation where they may be needed.

  856. The problem is not the brakes. The problem is the automated software when enacted and at times causes acceleration rather then braking, thus automated driving should probably be avoided. A simllar problem exists with a Tesla vehicle in Nanning, Guangxi, with so called braking failure, with suggestion that the car wants to accelerate. This can only be caused when automated software is enacted.

  857.  @kp-dr7tt  the investigation of criminality is on Carnival, not NSW Health. Thus i suggest removal of the word criminal. NSW Health minister should not have released passengers until the rest results were received. That is extremely negligent! Borderforce could have exercised their right to stop the passengers disembarking, and probably have referred to matter to the Home Affairs Minister.

  859.  @sheavague7058  what a load of codswobble. Guilty of what? You use the assumption by some countries of assumed guilt and democratic in the same sentence, which just shows the world where democracy has gone. Guilty of what? Almost oxymoronic!

  861.  @sheavague7058  let me suggest tnis is an accusation, not guilt of anything. One if the essences of democracy is the assumption of innocence, until proven guilty, of which you do not appear to be an advocate. Stay open minded!

  862.  @sheavague7058  actually the media acts as judge and jury, you think about it. They control the narrative, in an effort to sway public opinion. Jacinta has enough nouse to be able to deal with them. So they present questions in such a way, to be able to extract a preconceived answer from them, so they can in turn point the finger. They should return to asking direct questions to which there will be no ambiguity to the replies.
    1
  863.  @sheavague7058  let me reiterate, the media tries to control the narrative, which maintains their influence. Some politicians, like Jacinta, are very good at recognizing it, and can deal with it, but some others cannot. In the US, the MSM divided the nation, thus resulting in Trumps loss, but was it based on honesty? Look who they have in charge now, a man who needs to be led around, required to carry notes as to what he should or should not do, and constantly needing to read "Q" cards. So they have a leader who is controlled. A puppet. By whom? The Neocons! Some call them the deep state. . I am getting distracted with your replies. So getting back to my point, questions should be clear, straight forward and without ambiguity.

  866.  Wili Wds  you believe everything you see on TV undoubtedly. You are obviously very gullible. If such a thing happened in China, i can assure you that it could happen anywhere in the world. To do this is actually against the law in China, even to family members. Not everyone abides by the law, which includes all coutries in the world.

I will continue to live here, about to enter my 8th year, but will look forward to the day i can return to my home country to see my kids and the grand kids i have never met. I wish you good luck and a safe journey no matter where you go, and thank you for your honesty.

  874.  @vernontrickey4115  US flu figures are always fudged, an estimate but not reality. Last year as per hospital and medical records, death certificates, flu deaths in the US was actually around 16,000, with many politicians estimating 50,000 to 60,000, being quoted without foundation. Government statements of 60,000 are far from the truth.
