The winter series of The 9pm Edict kicks off with special guest Yun Jiang, the inaugural China Matters Fellow at the Australian Institute of International Affairs. And guess what? We’re discussing China and Australia.
In this episode we talk about the massive COVID-19 lockdown in Shanghai, the possibility of a Chinese naval base in Solomon Islands, recent diplomatic moves of both Australia and China in the South Pacific, China’s interception of an RAAF maritime patrol aircraft, 996 and the Lying Flat movement, diversity in parliament, climate change, and what Australia’s new Albanese government means for our relations with China and for the public service.
