I doubt you travel overseas that much. You seem to be regurgitating from propaganda lines.

Perhaps it will do you some good to do a bit of research and travel.

You should visit Shenzhen if you could and see for yourself the "High Tech" side of their silicon valley. And you should do some research into countries with the most worldwide patent registrations. It just might surprise you.

As to your suggestion that China might invade Australia - well, that is a bit of a stetch, as they only have one aircraft carrier - the same number Australia has.

And their submarines are 30 years behind the time and awfully noisy.

Furthermore, China has ONLY one military base around the world (outside China) - that is in Djibouti - and that is to protect their oil supplies from the Middle East. They don't have any bases near Australia.

In any case, if you are going to engage in hyperbole, at least learn facts from fictions.

Now, I travel a fair bit and from my own experience; I would agree that China does not play fair in trades, but neither does the US or EU. And I would agree some Chinese business practices are opaque and Not up to Western standards, but that is far from accusing them with territorial desires.

The ONLY country that has done more destabilisation and invasion in the last 100 years has been your good "Bully".

Finally, I just want to say I am also conservative. But I draw a line between right versus wrong and the rule of law.
