I quite regularly write about China but only rarely do those posts receive more than a handful of views, either on the blog here or on my VKontacte social media site at vk.com/bernie.edwards, whereas other posts (on VK at least) can attract up to several hundred views.

It Ain’t Over ’til…
After lambasting Kunstler's previous blog post I'm happy to say that the Jim we know and love is back again with his latest - which I'm happy to share in full again.

A Message of Peace and Goodwill
If you want a message of Peace and Goodwill for this time of the year, or any time of the year, and in any year, you only have to look to China. It's the nation of peace and goodwill. Perhaps the only major such nation still in existence. Though I can think of one and... Continue Reading →
“Australia needs to have independent diplomatic thinking. But… is doing just the opposite.”

You think the World Health Organisation (WHO) somehow, as a result of its affinity for China, misled or misadvised the world about the disease? You think that Doctor Trump was right or even in a position to hold an opinion on that... Continue Reading →
