australia named a chinese colony, page-20

Didnt we also say the same about the Japanese back in the eighties and early nineties?
From memory the local thoughts here was that the Japanese would turn our country into one big golf course.

And when other emerging economies like India start purchasing mining companies and property in Australia are we also going to say the same about them?

And then comes Indonesia 3rd in line of emerging economies... will they also be considered in this type of conspiracy theory?

I would throw in New Zealand but i just dont believe the banks would consider sheep as appropriate collateral...

Seriously though, economies rise and fall and as Australia has some of the best mining and agricultural industries in the world of course we are going to be a target for those economies with significant money.

Put your xenophobic hats back in the closet guys and gals and consider where we would be if these countries didnt invest in Australia...
