It is surprising how our government tends to take things lightly and ends up learning the hard way.

Kenya: Gives the tender to control the media signal to a Chinese company. Link

Australia: Huwawei is banned from even tendering for equipment supply to a network infrastructure project. Reason given, national security concerns. Link


How much more of the country's strategic resources are we going to give away blindly?

And now we are talking about oil...

You need to know more about the relationship between Australiaj and China. Aussies are in perpetual fear and trepidation about China "taking over" their country. The claim about security concerns is just a ruse. Aussies have also stopped Chinese companies trying to invest in mixing in AU.

There many reasons why you want to tread carefully when dealing with China.

Especially this particular matter of communications equipment, if you understood how those equipment operate, you would not allow those guys anywhere near national communications instruments.

Russia for example doesn't use the global GPS system. They built and launched their own GPS system. Why?

Then on the other hand you watch news and you see our president almost recklessly telling China to come and take whatever they want from Kenya and Africa. Really??
