Rundown of China's spy agencies will make uncomfortable reading for some

You know about the CIA. And the FBI. The whole world knows that James Bond worked for MI6.

We've heard in recent years that Chinese spying and hacking in Australia is so rife that it's overwhelming our own intelligence agencies. The federal government in 2018 even introduced new laws to try to limit Chinese spying and interference. But we can't name the agencies doing it.

Brady, a professor of political science at NZ's University of Canterbury, offers a basic rundown of China's main intelligence agencies in her piece, titled "Party Faithful" and published in the latest issue of. First is the Ministry of State Security, modelled along the lines of the KGB. Brady describes it as a "full-spectrum intelligence agency" spying on the world. Its public face is styled a think tank, the China Institute of Contemporary International Relations.

The second key PLA agency is the one that does global cyberwar. The Strategic Support Force also operates political interference abroad, siphons off military and commercial secrets, and conducts psychological and political war abroad. Apparently it's quite good at it.summarised the consensus of US agencies last year as "China's eating our lunch in cyberspace".

美国的黑奴如此之多，到我们还不知道他们在哪被奴役。。。

Even if I wanted to pay, I would not read anything written about China by Peter Hartcher. And all other countries spy. Timor Leste ring a bell. Oh that was just bugging, so guess that’s okay

SusanVermazen This happened because white people generally undermine other nationalities!!! South africa APARTHEID government built six nuclear bombs NOBODY knew because once again a shithole country. Do Not undermine people based on the colour of their skin or language they speak!!!

How many Chinese students in your country?

You have been failed when you have no ability but use rumors!

BillGertz China is the true threat to freedom and world peace.

BillGertz Unfortunately this will lead to every Chinese citizen living abroad a possible suspect!

CCP not China

You are over target. Bots all over this one.

A scientist interviewed by Fox News exposed that the Community Chinese Party（CCP）sent the virus and then covered up the truth. CCP_is_terrorist CCPVirus Dryan HimalayaAustralia

This is what is most worrying about the China 'fearing up' by western media. we are constantly told of a threat that is unidentified, invisible and presents as philosophical. The more I hear the less I trust our governments response tbh Asia Asean

It's really bad,but how government's,Politicians, agency authority,business contributed for it? Did not ours 12 years Coalition's government spy on powerless East Timor government to exploitation of poor Country?

Might be like bullshit Construction Royal Commission to bring law and other to Industry, Building are collapse, not builders authorities inspectors are investigated for poorly standards,also not jurisdiction to crashing builders OH&S breaches,just sying crashing W/Unions rights?

Leader is atrocious liar

Look this face so ugly.🤮🤮🤮

Dont know about a head count nor the names of China's intelligence agencies but I do know US has 800 offshore bases (just defence purposes!) And employs CIA operatives around the globe so Peter, what is your point?

Why don't you go and ask Gladys?

Meanwhile, Google phone/home, Alexia, Apple, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn all listening or censoring every Australian, that's not spying It's just passive surveillance?

He doesn't know their names, he just knows they exist. That's like me saying I'm going to win Tattslotto I just don't know when

You failed to mention the US ' NSA ' or the information the government gathers from Facebook, Twitter or Google. Oh that's right we are only talking about China. Bit hypocritical.

miriamcosic What, more than the US? Gasp.

Well. Wouldn’t it have a Chinese name in Chinese writing that you couldn’t understand anyway? And it’s probably bigger than just China.

An extremely evil man is Xi and grave danger to the entire planet!

Come on.... Surely someone knows the name

I know their names 1. DanielAndrewsMP and 2. GladysLiuMP both Chinese Communist Party’s puppet.

Bastards

James Bond is the world's most famous secret agent, which makes him a pretty lousy secret agent. Have you ever considered that the reason you don't know anything about China's 'spy agency' is because they are pretty good at their jobs.

You & I are not supposed to know secret agents Name Name of Employer Income Expenditure or primary place of H.Q. spying is done in the dark shadows

Does that mean when Australia planted so many bugs in Chinese embassy and listened 7x24 for years but even can’t figure out the name? Australians’ tax money wasted on shitty intelligence? A teenager student does better job than your professionals?

The name of the intelligence is 统战部.

Ignorance is bliss!

The same missing WMD, because they are so well hidden in Iraq story, again.

That's a line from The Kingsman movie.

we had been busy taking in 2mils mainlanders Who are loyal to whom is questionable?

China is bad.

Well maybe US just spy on others using satellites instead? They have almost 50% of the world’s satellite in orbit. I’m sure it’s not so they can have better tv reception!

It’s nice to hear that people are finding love on the job

Of cause they do like Australia USA and other also spy on other countries ... I find the shock and horror of China spying on us a very big double standard .. every country spy’s on other countries be realistic

China has more people engaged in everything ... there's a heap of em to keep busy.

China warns citizens of 'arbitrary' searches in Australia and upgrades travel warningChina has stepped up a travel warning to Australia, telling its citizens of a risk of being searched 'arbitrarily' by law enforcement authorities, as tensions between both countries grow. Perhaps China should just stay out of Australia, instead of trying to be the world power they aren't. Being searched 'arbitrarily' by law enforcement? Really? Even if this were true, this particular travel warning hardly seems relevant at this time. 🙄 The Chinese citizens people so much of what their government tell them says a lot about them.
