Former Labor immigration minister Nick Bolkus is involved in a lobbying effort by Chinese mining interests to access a secretive Defence Department site where Australia and its allies conduct highly-sensitive military research.
It is unclear whether JiuJiang's involvement with Chinese state-owned-enterprises would require Mr Bolkus, as a former cabinet minister, to declare his links to JiuJiang under the Attorney General's department's new foreign interests register. He has not registered to date. “The Australian Security Intelligence Organisation has noted that Australia’s position as a major commodity supplier, scientific and technological innovator, and potential joint venture partner makes it a target of foreign states seeking to gain advantages,” said the review by former senior public servant Gordon de Brouwer.
CU River is owned and directed by Chinese-born businessman Yong Gang Shan, who is a Chinese citizen, but has a residential property in Adelaide. Mr Shan established CU River in 2014 and has a long background in China's steel industry. Defence outlined its position in a response to questions on notice from South Australian Centre Alliance senator Rex Patrick in February.

Virtually unstoppable anti-Labor scare campaign targets Chinese-AustraliansChinese-Australian voters are being targeted by a scare campaign that claims there would be an influx of more than a million refugees in 10 years if a Labor government was elected. Can we get a fact check on these ads? The figures sound about right to me. Why unstoppable find out who put it out there and prosecute them Chinese don't like brown people, and that is why they don't breed with them. If you don't believe it then go and take a good look at the statistics for multiracial marriages (like mine) that result in offspring. Whites come out as the least racist in practice, in actual choices.

Access to abortion still depends on 'your postcode and your income'For women in regional and rural areas, access to abortion has drastically improved with the availability of medical and tele-abortions, but heavy restrictions still apply. ❤️ It also still requires that you be a pregnant woman, correct? The protester's sign has a familiar ring to it, 'war is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength'. Now we can add 'death is life' to the list.
