Mr Kenny said Australia “should always be calm” in its foreign affairs, but said the idea
that some people are being hysterical “tends to suggest that there’s nothing to worry about here”.
Is Keating blind as a bat? Can he not see what our government has done to bribe China? We have lost sovereignty to China - government has given most of our land/ports away to China.
My Father was killed in the Vietnam War defending us against communism. Now these politicians want to open the doors and let them take over. A quick reminder : They are a COMMUNIST DICTATORSHIP ....history shows where that goes
we all know whos pockets he is in then
Whilst Keating may have a vested interest his knowledge experience dealing with China significantly more than SCOMO and his team of policyless do nothings. Keating may or may not be correct but how will truth be known while dills and biased media control the dialogue.
Yes we should be
Well by MEDIA he actually means you MurdochHacks the australian 7NewsAustralia pretty simple really .. NewsDay PMLive credlin theprojecttv theboltreport
Who is this Chris Kenny? The Kenny I'm aware of says and writes jejune opinion with flawed logic and inferences. Like the inference in this short report. This same Kenny has been, effectively, called a dead beat dad and did own by his adult son and loves dogs.
Keating needs to shut-up! He needs to remember he his no longer prime minister. Also, if he is going to talk on this topic, he needs to make unequivocal the absence of a conflict of interest! End of!
Totally agree, it's one thing to have trading partners, it's totally another thing when it comes to foreign ownership. And right now our government needs to wake and support our farmers and industries.
Paul would be the first to complain if the CCP tried to harvest his organs
Its true they are stirring it up and trying to make people feel threatened by China when they are no threat to our life at all unless stupid polititions keep selling off land or trash talk them to push them to change our lives by conquering us.
Modern China plays the same role in increasing of international tension as the former USSR in XX century, only China is much stronger economically and more insidious.
Totally agree we should be concerned, and disagree with the views of former PM....
Former labor polly shilling for China... now there's a shocker.
Chris Kenny or Paul Keating?
Neville Chamberlain held similar beliefs back in the '30s.
He would say that because he thinks Australia should be governed China-style... socialism is good... communism is even better

Liberal Senator 'surprised and disappointed' following China visa cancellation | Sky News AustraliaLiberal Senator James Paterson says he found it 'surprising and disappointing' following China's decision to cancel his visa before a planned visit to the country. \n\nChina is demanding Liberal MPs Andrew Hastie and James Paterson 'repent and redress their mistakes' if they want to visit Beijing. \n\nThe pair were due to travel to the country as part of a study tour, however on Friday it was revealed their visas had been cancelled. \n\nBoth MPs have publicly criticised China for recent human rights abuses, as well as perceived attempts to exert influence in Australia. \n\n“I’m an agnostic so repenting is not really my style,” Mr Paterson told Sky News Host Chris Kenny. \n\nBut I'm particularly not going to be repenting at the instruction or command of a foreign authoritarian power'. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia Don't need to swim in the Sewer to know its SEWERAGE- He should thank them He's going over there to make a dick of himself, I don't support censorship but it's hardly surprising China has blocked this move. Study Tour...just a fancy name for a taxpayer funded holiday..Be better served to send the pair of them to the bushfire areas in NSW and QLD and let them learn to be volunteer firemen...Mind you that would require them to associate with actual workers and get their hands dirty.

China 'can do as they like' following MP visa cancellation | Sky News AustraliaSky News contributor Gemma Tognini says 'I was really quite surprised' by China's call for Liberal MPs to 'repent' before being allowed into the country. \n\nChina is demanding Liberal MPs Andrew Hastie and James Paterson 'repent and redress their mistakes' if they want to visit Beijing. \n\nThe pair were due to travel to the country as part of a study tour, however on Friday it was revealed their visas had been cancelled. \n\nBoth MPs have publicly criticised China for recent human rights abuses, as well as perceived attempts to exert influence in Australia. \n\nMs Tognini defend the Chinese government's ability to 'say whatever it likes and allow whoever it likes into its country'. \n\n'Let's not pretend the Australian government doesn't enjoy the same sovereignty,' she said. \n\nImage: Getty It just goes to show what a sick and twisted regime it really is. The people of Hong Kong know what they’re in for and Hastie’s treatment by China is actually farcical. Should be of no surprise based on many media reports over time of people and nations having to accept the way of the emperor and bow down in order to do business and interact with this great nation. The pope would be envious of the emperors power over the world. Obviously not enough brown paper bags with the Visa application.

Aus-China human rights partnership suspended | Sky News AustraliaA key human rights partnership between Australia and China has been quietly suspended, signalling worsening diplomatic ties with the Asian superpower.\n\nThere are growing concerns about Beijing's human rights record, including the mass detention of religious minorities. \n\nDespite Australia’s economic relationship with China, Foreign Minister Marise Payne has called out human rights abuses allegedly perpetrated by China. \n\nLiberal Senator James Paterson backed the foreign minister's resolve, saying “we can’t allow anyone to dictate what an Australian parliamentarian can and cannot say”. \n\nThe key human rights program has been in place for 20 years trying to advance human rights reform in China. The Asian Super power that claims to be a 'developing country', good riddance to them, hopefully they pack up their tents and toddle off. Ohnaw21 can't have a partnership when human rights don't exist in one of the countries

'Very bad step' on Liberal politicians' part to 'get involved with China' | Sky News AustraliaProfessor at RMIT University Joe Siracusa says the two parliamentarians are “absolutely correct” to criticise China but it was a “very bad step on their part to get involved with those people”.\n \nSenator James Paterson was due to travel to China with MP Andrew Hastie next month but when they called the embassy to arrange their visas they were told they were not welcome. \n \n“They were going to go sponsored by China Matters, which is a private organisation, you’ve got two members of parliament who are going somewhere on someone’s dime to see what China looks like and were obliged to come back and talk about their experiences,” Mr Siracusa told Sky News.\n \n“That is hardly Independent behaviour and I think it was a very bad step on their part to get involved with those people.\n \n“This whole China thing is going to get worse and worse, because China’s ramping up with Hong Kong.”\n Hastie one of the few polis in this country with conviction & a backbone. When did China give RMIT permission to criticise them? Surely some penance will be required less the foerign student stream of income is affected. Well old Joe might feel a little bit better about the slightly messy means of communication in a few months once HK is in flames, and the raw footage of camps, crematoriums and organ harvesting starts to flow out of Chinazi Time to pick a side.

'A lot to disagree with' in Keating's speech on China | Sky News AustraliaThe US Studies Centre's James Brown says it is 'classic Paul Keating' to suggest the debate surrounding China's rise has 'degenerated' in Australia. \n\nFormer prime minister Paul Keating accused the media of stirring up 'hysteria' in its reporting on the rise of China.\n\nMr Brown said it was worthy to “acknowledge Keating’s commercial linkages to China” and argued there was a lot to “disagree with in that speech”. \n\nThe global economic superpower was in focus at a strategic forum in Sydney, amid growing concerns about Australia's worsening diplomatic ties with Beijing. \n\nImage: News Corp Australia Lets see..mm Sky News or Paul Keating. Who has the credentials to speak with authority. Mr Keating spoke for him self ego views contrary to the facts on the ground. His views were not appropriate to the democratic world. Me thinks Paul needs to toddle off to Vanuatu, Solomon’s and Fiji and have a look at the intervention of China in those countries, the work undertaken, the Chinese involvement in infrastructure, the telecommunications etc, I’ve seen it’s a worry.
