@dreamygates2461 Your argument is hypocritical when China has it's "China 2025" aka China 1st.

@robot336 Australia has plenty of coal, gas, lithium, uranium, magnesium, rare earth and 'etc'.

@Chris Gullett https://graphitepublications.com/will-chinas-outrageous-rare-earth-monopoly-persist/ China's rare earth near monopoly was built on SOE (state own enterprise) which driven private competitors from the market.

Back in mid-December, when the current Labor Government was trying to explain how the NT was in the middle of a full-blown financial crisis that sees it borrowing $4 million a day to keep operating, Jodie Ryan was asked in a briefing what happened to the $506 million the NT received for the port. She said it was put into general revenue and spent. It's long gone, with less than 96 years left ------------------ You blame LNP federal government for Labor government's selection process? fuckoff

@Will Shang Your argument is hypocritical when CCP has "CHina 1st" aka China 2025.

@Will Shang That's bullshit. USSR broke the sphere of influence agreement with the proxy Korean war.

@Will Shang https://supchina.com/2018/03/23/why-chinese-companies-crush-western-tech-giants-in-china/ For example, Bloomberg published an article earlier this month titled “China protectionism creates tech billionaires who protect Xi,” with the author stating, “That’s helped create thriving domestic giants, including Tencent Holdings Ltd. and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.” Mark Natkin, managing director of Beijing-based Marbridge Consulting, was quoted as saying, “As long as they remain protected in the China market, they’ll dominate and use that money to fund their global expansion.”

@Will Shang https://www.afr.com/brand/chanticleer/chinese-tech-stocks-pose-an-investment-dilemma-20180815-h1410o Baidu became China's No.1 search engine partly because Google was outlawed. Tencent became the world's largest gaming company and owner of China's No.1 messaging system without needing to compete with Facebook's WhatsApp. Baidu and Tencent are prime examples of Chinese companies simply copying the successful business models created in Silicon Valley and then rolling them out without fear of competition at home. Alibaba, which built the world's largest online retailing business, was allowed to dominate China's small business lending without interference from foreigners or much competition from local government-owned entities.

@Will Shang Your "hypocrisy is the word belonged only to western countries" statement is the red herring argument which I countered.

@Will Shang The difference 1. Muslim concentration camps = CCP government policy vs 2. Rogue Australian soldier killing unarmed civilians are NOT Australian government policy.
