    watso did not watch (except for a minute or two) the 1 hour video - but the short 5 minute video was telling...

    mmm 139m chinese tourists/whatever - and no defections ..

    watso recalls when after the supreme leader Xi visited tasmania - the chinese tourist market to tasmania BOOMED..

    Tasmania has experienced a surge of Chinese tourists following Chinese President Xi Jinping’s presidential visit to Hobart on 18 November 2014. Pure and pristine nature, lavender bears, gourmet seafood, the Port Arthur Historic Site, and the recently popularised aurora gazing and outdoor adventure activities have come to be regarded as unique Tasmanian experiences by many Chinese. The boom of Chinese inbound tourism has spurred the state’s economic growth, enriched cultural exchange and stimulated regional development.

    west australian dicktator mark mcgowan is not too happy with the nonsense sprouted by the australian "el supremo" - (that would have to be slowmo) - and his anti chinese rhetoric (ok - australia is a vassal state of usa - and that is what vassal states do) ..

    west australian dictator mark mcgowan is probably a little bit smarter than the average Sinophobe - and is aware of the billions of $$$$$'s in royalties that the chinese pay for the iron ore ...

    (MMM there is a lot of iron ore in africa.. and the chinese are in the process of developing one super large orebody)

    ok the above is at the macro level - but at the micro level - a former neighbour of watso used to host (ie rent out rooms) chinese students .. the chinese students were great ambassadors for their country - and when one of the former student's got married - watso's former neighbour was invited to china for the wedding - and she was treated like royalty - and had a one month holiday - being hosted by the former student's extended family ...

    the australian university sector is reliant on chinese students.. obviously these students are exposed to all sorts of influences - and probably are aware of the happenings of Tiananmen square
