The word on street is that despite recent concessions on trade sanctions, Beijing is getting unhappy that Anthony Albanese has yet to set a date to visit China.
Albo has avoided commitment to the timetable of a visit despite informing world leaders at the recent G7 conference that he intended to travel.
The month of October has been proposed as a possible visit date to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the first visit to China by an Australian prime minister, Gough Whitlam, in 1973.
The issue has become so ridiculous that it has resuscitated the previously muzzled crazies at the disgraced UTS Australia-China Relations Institute run by James Laurenceson.
“I can’t see how it would serve Australia’s national interest if the PM suddenly declined a visit. That would be madness.”
Actually, it would be marvelous because Labor’s China crazies are completely jumping the shark, now denying that the Tiananmen Square Massacre even happened.
