China has been playing the long game and has been a power to be taken notice of for a hell of a long time yet have not got the respect they so rightly deserve and now, one way or another, they will get it.
Australia needs to realise that we are part of Asia and get with the programme and align ourselves accordingly.
Marvellous opportunity for us and so much to learn and gain.

A shame Kevin Rudd is still not in, politics aside, someone who has some understanding of China and who speaks the language would be of benefit going forward.

Unfortunately I think the China issue will be the thing that divides Australia much like race politics has divided the US. Anyone who wants to work with China is going to be called a Chinese stooge, so the politicians will put on a strong show for the masses. It's easier to sell CANZUK to the masses.
