#Chinese leader #XiJinping called on Southeast Asian countries Monday to join him in resisting President Donald #Trump’s “unilateralism and protectionism,” part of his effort to present #Beijing as a more reliable ally and trading partner.

#Xi’s arrival Monday in #Vietnam, a country #Trump hit with a whopping 46 percent tariff until he issued a temporary reprieve last week, marks a new stage in #Beijing’s “neighborhood #diplomacy.”

The #Liberals have a candidate problem continued:

“Liberal #candidate #ScottYung and party officials have declined to answer detailed #questions about whether his use of #Chinese celebrities and a public relations firm in the 2019 #StateElection complied with official #guidelines, as the Liberal party confirms an #audit of campaign disclosures.

A private dinner at a “luxurious venue” in #Sydney to raise #CampaignFunds for Yung, featuring the former Liberal prime minister #TonyAbbott, has also been cancelled without explanation.”

…

“Wishing the talented young Chinese Mr #RongSicheng [Scott Yung] has great success ahead and a boundless future! All the best! I’m #ZhangTielin from #Beijing, #China.”

The cursed Liberal Christian name “Scott” strikes again.
