    The Australian’s Foreign Editor Greg Sheridan says Chinese Ambassador to Australia Xiao Qian gave a “chilling address” which had a “velvet glove that contained an iron fist” at the National Press Club on Wednesday afternoon.

    “Everything was a hard threatening demand that Australia capitulate,” Mr Sheridan told Sky News Australia.

    “Underneath the message is the same, tremble and obey – do as we tell you or you are in deep trouble.”

    I solidly agree with Sheridan after watching Xiao in the 1 hr 22 min talk. Xiao's address was bullish. in the sense of Chinese Tao the Bull or Oxen is a stubborn creature which poses threat/danger and reward/opportunity. to master the Oxen is one of life's key challenges.

    in our culture the Bull is similar but most noted for the bull's propensity to charge dangerously. the stock market Bull understanding I'll leave to others. but the Bull is also a Bully, a belligerent who often appears docile and even calm if pacified but dangerous in any environment. subtle and scheming.

    and this is how I saw Mr Xiao tonight.

    there its no compromise with China, is the clear message I got.

    we, and other nations, must do as China wills and must not insult or humiliate China.

    China has spoken.
