Australia's trust in China has fallen to a record low

, and Prime Minister Scott Morrison pressing for an inquiry into the origins of COVID-19.

“I would have said last year that those levels of trust in China, which were already at record lows, and the level of confidence in Xi Jinping, had already hit their floor, but clearly that isn't the case. We've seen them fall even lower.” Large majorities also supported subsidising renewable energy technology , setting a net-zero emissions target for 2050 , and introducing an emissions trading scheme or carbon tax .

1 in 10 Australians wouldn't even know the name of the president of china. I bet 1 in 10 Australians could not locate china on a map!

Wish Morrison would do the right thing and stop killing our trading with China, and stfu!

What trust? Yer dreamin'. The far left SBS needs to get with the program. Get real, it's not 10%, it's 0% amongst true Aussies. We fund the far left SBS and ABC and they both need to get behind Australia rather than selling us out.

That's research probably took place in Mt Druitt in NSW. Have they tried Box Hill in Victoria?

Absurd headlines!!Most Australians would be CLUELESS..Having no Idea of Communications with or toward China...include morrison and Marise Payne...1out of 10 for Your headline...10/10 toward continuing morrisons 'announcements'..a continuation of the mindset of morons...

Id rather bet on an od shot at the dogs

Aussie media propaganda is working.

Xijinping said: hey don’t like me, your guys just like China products..... should research the% of Australian buy and using China products.... and % of import products from China!

Never trust the CCP

China is not a friend. The world must stop supporting slave labour, genocide, murder, invasions, coercion, threats, financial and educational manipulation, mass pollution, cyber crimes, bullying and lies BoycottChina DetachFromChina

Not just Aussie, but around the world. When it comes to CCPChina, distrust & verify!

Show us the FACTS. All I see is a propagandist campaign of HATE devised to exacerbate mistrust, and division, by a vassal puppet to US policy

China has implemented the policy of boycotting australia products since last year and you still busy conducting poll/research.

And 1 in 100 Australians have that same confidence that Morrison would 'do the right thing' on world affairs.

If China is to be a member of the modern world it needs a generational change so that the house of the people is gender equal and its members are not the left- overs from the Mao years. And like Australia its leaders need to stop lying to its people

Yeah we all feel like that.

Xi Jinping has taken China down a dangerous road It is not only Australia that has been at the brunt of China's bullying It has done so to the members of the EU and NATO Hence the backlash China can't rule the world and China can't go it alone Hence cooperation is the solution

Come on, only one in ten😎

I bet they all vote Labor

That high?

That 1 must be a Chinese 😵‍💫

I don’t trust him

That high?

I'm surprised it's so high considering only 2.5% of people living in Oz are Chinese born. I can't imagine any Oz born ethnic Chinrse having any confidence in Xi Jinping.

CCP no one can Trust anyway every way … the only good about them is they are the only one who can contain Radicalised Muslims …

Warning was issued by Miles Guo about the imminent and evil plan by the CCP! TakeDowntheCCP WhisleBlowerMovement NewFederalStateofChina NFSC BiologicalWeapon ChemicalWeapon CCPVirus MilesGuo CCP Taiwan

I reckon the other 10% are CCP spies.

Australians wouldn't know Xi Jinping from a bull's foot. Every last negative about China has been trolled out by the media in a daily ChinaBash mainly to obscure its remarkable successes. Comparisons are odious......

chn president is better than aus president in case of attending citizens during pandamic, crisis , not running off from his duties and no chinese are complaining. So better write how much trust do Aussirs have on moriss after crisis and Hus runoff and wanna be dictatorship

There’s nothing you can do about dictatorships in another country especially in this case of China, he won’t give in to outside pressure, instead would probably reign for his lifetime.

If the same pole was conducted in China (without the CCP’s knowledge) I reckon it would be a similar result.. 🤔

😏That 1 likely to be 🇨🇳student/immigrant in 🇦🇺

The 10% are Han immigrants.

So? Who cares.

Are the 1 in 10 Chinese diplomats or their hostage family ?

SayNoToSino Only 1 in 10?. I would think, only 1 in 10,000. Even that must be rather generous.

One in ten Australians How many did you ask No one asked me!!🤔

Lowy Institute polled around 2000 odd people. Yep that sure gives an accurate indication huh. The days of trusting MSM with these kind of articles are well and truly over.

Isn't it much, much better spending time researching Australian's trust in their own leaders? What real significance does it have whether Australians trust Chinese leaders? Even whether they have trust in their own leaders does not seem to matter as much as it should.

That many? Must be expats.

nine in ten Australians are so politically apathetic they wouldn't know if their arse was on fire.

Seems high.

Why are we surprised. Anti China rhetoric is rampant in our news media and has been since the 'pandemic'.

We always turn our gaze to others countries . I wonder how the others perceive Morrison (and predecessors) on the topic of world affairs. WitnessK

Worth noting that while Lowy claims to be “independent” and “non-partisan”, the think tank has previously been described as leaning towards the centre-right and variously having “pro-US alliance”, “pro-Zionist” and “pro-military intervention” views.

The Tarim Basin is the largest oil & gas field in China located in Xian province where Uyghurs live. USA generated wars with Iran & Iraq over oil & gas interests, why not China?

That’s what propaganda will do

But to be fair, you yould run this questuon for other nations leaders before judging too hard. While I think his deals for humanity probably come second to his deals for Chinese humans, generally I think his ideals are better than my country's figure head

Where did this survey come up with this number?

Since when SBS is on CIA's anti-china propaganda payroll?

and 9 in 10 Australians when asked if they know about 'Xi Jinping' thought hmmmm, maybe be its the latest online action game? Can I play Xi on my Wii?

Haven't heard a thing about a survey' but just for the record I can't see a problem with Xi Jinping.

And those '1s' are most likely commies living in northcote

Oh he's worried now, bet he resigns

The best response will be just one number. 'Zero'!

No one asked me. Nor did anyone ask anyone I know.

Did i miss out on the survey? Anyone here take the survey?

This will please the Murdoch Party but not Australian exporters who have lost business from our PM echoing Trump

我们的国家关你屁事啊？ 我们民调还希望澳大利亚人赶紧死绝 有用吗？

And that 1 is CCP stooge here in Australia

Seems 1 in 10 people surveyed are idiots

COVID has revealed China's true character, at best a criminal gang government that holds non communist party members prisoner in their own country ?

What a shock! I hope President XI Jinping will fully recover from this devastating news. (When has populism ever been successful in foreign affairs- and our media are promoting this anti-China position very strongly.)

That pretty much correlates with those who trust politicians in general, journalists, used car salesmen and the guy next door who says he isn't throwing his lawn clippings over your fence. Bullshite news!

thanks western media

ReubensteinApac

Only 2222 Australians were surveyed. Great headline though.

Compared to what sort of confidence do we have in the Prime Mullah Morrison or the President of the USa or Boris Johnston?

This poll was taken in March long before people could know how badly the incompetent LNP government stuffed up the vaccination rollout. SBS doing more government propaganda on Morrison's behalf.

Australians optimistic after horror 2020 - but trust in China plungesAustralians have rebounded strongly from a traumatic 2020, but nervous eyes are fixed on various looming threats, with distrust of China at record levels. 9News A bit of distrust is understandable, 25 mill against 1350 mill, but warmongering isn’t so come on Canberra go the diplomacy route. It's not Australia vs China at all. It's people in business and the government that is worried about the CCP. We must unite to defeat the CCP and overthrow Xi Jinping. The CCP is even more hooligans than hooligans. They use the media to brainwash the people's minds, falsify data, and steal our technology by spying. They cruelly control the people's fertility

Top UN official seeks China visit to investigate human rights abuse allegations against Uighurs in XinjiangMichelle Bachelet is under growing pressure from some countries to secure unfettered access to Xinjiang, where activists say more than a million Uighurs and other Turkic Muslims have been mistreated or subject to forced labour. A bit laughable given China has power of veto over any resolution. Also a little laughable is human rights atrocity committed casually by Islamic regimes under the protection of religious freedoms all but ignored by the UN with the exception of some intermittent damming reports. And yet United Nations are still not allowed to visit West Papua for 60 years! WestPapuaGenocide FreeWestPapua United Nations are very selective in where they look for human rights abuses.
