CHINA-THREAT YELLOW PERIL
REVISITEDby John Peterson and Rohan Phillips Economic
Fairy Land According to The Australian columnist Greg Sheridan, protectionist
"rantings" are bad for us. [1] In his column in The Australian of 19
February 2004 he commented on the then possibility of John Kerry winning the US
Presidency. Kerry was seen as being the most "dangerous" on outsourcing.
Greg said outsourcing for example, is illustrated by IT companies setting up call
centres in places like India where labour is cheap. Thus Telstra has set up a
branded information hub for technology in the Indian city of Bangalore to cut
its $1.5 billion IT budget in half. IBM has already used its Indian subsidiary
to fulfil its Telstra contracts, saving $75 million and moving 450 jobs offshore.
(Across page please Flo) Indian IT graduates
are paid about $13,000 per annum. [2] Indians are more "flexible" workers.
[3] Globalist economic strategies such as this, and other, have resulted in the
disappearance in the US of over 3 million jobs in the last 3 years in manufacturing
and textiles. For Sheridan outsourcing is the same as cutting tariffs. If
making machinery is cheaper in Asia, there is no point in trying to hide behind
tariffs. Let local firms go to the wall! Free trade benefits both rich and poor
countries he says. Sheridan then trots out the Eco-1 comparative advantage argument:
"Cheaper jobs go to poorer countries and the wealth in the richer countries
goes into new investment which created jobs. Also, newly wealthy people in poorer
countries buy things from rich countries". Never
mind that the comparative advantage argument is based on economic assumptions
(such as perfect substituity of labour) that are not satisfied in the real world.
[4] Never mind that China is not treated as a full market economy under World
Trade Organisation rules, dumping its products on overseas markets, such goods
selling cheaper overseas than at home. [5] Simply forget about the high tariffs
in many fast-industrialising Asian countries and other non-tariff barriers that
breach World Trade Organisation rules. [6] If all else fails, then there are threats.
If we don't outsource to India, India may ban its students from studying here
says Sheridan. With the loss of 10,000 of these magical beings our universities
will be devastated. This is what it is like for a nation to be a whore. The
"logic" of the free trade argument is that a country such as Australia
will have no manufacturing base at all. Australian labour cannot compete with
Asian sweatshop and Chinese prison slave labour. So let manufacturing go. Concentrate
on services such as tourism. And when the bubble bursts, you have nothing. Such
are the wages of free trade. Free trade is not a win-win game; it is a Darwinian
zero sum game all of nothing. The Asianisers actually favour other nations over
Australia. Their bottom line is Asian, not Australian survival. We
saw this in Australia when Japan was tipped by the elites to become "No.1".
The Multifunction Polis (MFP) was essentially to be a new marriage home, where
the strong aggressive technologically erect Japanese business samurai could impregnate
the soft fleshy resource rich Australia. [7] Gavan McCormack said in Bonsai Australia
Bonsai: "It is time to look forward to an Australia somewhere down the track,
perhaps 50 or so years away, in which kids with names like Takahashi or Tanaka,
but also Wang, Kim, or Phuong, will be directors of BHP, Cabinet Ministers, poets
and columnists to rival Dawe and Sayle. The Australia Dawe and Sayle (and this
author) were brought up in has gone. There is little to lament in that: the present
is much more interesting, and the future challenging, but full of promise".
[8] For the Asianisers the racial genocide
of traditional Australia is a matter of fact. But what if such sentiments were
expressed in Japan about the Japanese or China about the Chinese? [9] China
Threat Today the Asianisers are looking forward to China taking the place
of Japan as our new colonial master. The growth rate of the Chinese economy has
been about 9 per cent for the last few years. Goldman Sachs Asian vice chairman,
Ken Courtis has said: "Provided China stays on course, the dominant economic
fact of the 21st century will be the rise of China". [10] To do this China
needs raw materials and resources and Australia is only too willing to sell these
at fire sale prices, as we did our coal and other minerals to Japan. "Pig
iron" Bob Menzies had expressed a similar excitement about Australia's sale
of iron to Japan in the pre-World War II period: iron that was to be fired back
at us. [12] Bob Hawke and Malcolm Fraser are
two former Australian Prime Ministers who would welcome China becoming the number
1 political, military and economic power. The US must make way for China these
"global citizens" say. [13] Paul Keating also championed the idea that
free trade will promote peace. But the realities of Asia are far from the misty-eyed
arts undergraduate view of the world. Brain Toohey has rightly noted that Indonesia
still kills dissidents in Irian Jaya [14] and China colonises Tibet and uses its
trading wealth to expand its nuclear, biological and chemical arsenals. [15]
Professor C.P. Fitzgerald has noted that as early as AD1400 imperial China was
dispatching great fleets and extracting tribute from Malacca, Java, Sumatra, Thailand,
Southern India, Ceylon, the Persian Gulf and Africa". "It would seem
likely", he says "that the Pacific region is now considered by the Chinese
as a part in which they are acutely interested and where they have a full right
of consultation. That means Japan, South-West Asia, Australia and New Zealand.
Probably they would not be indifferent to anything in the Indian Ocean as far
as the coast of Africa". [16] Klintworth believes that "Not-withstanding
cycles of domestic repression, China has always had great power ambitions".
[17] It is the view of Professor Paul Dibb of the Australian National University
that China's aim is to force the US from the Asia region, which it will dominate.
[18] A Chinese warship claimed in 1995 Mischief
Reef, one of the Spratly islands in the South China Sea. The Spratley Islands
are in the middle of the sealanes that carry much of East Asia's trade - a region
in which China lays claim to. The Spratly Islands are claimed by various countries.
China claims them in their entirety. It may soon assert its claims over the whole
of the South China Sea. [19] China has been
in conflict with almost all its neighbours including India, Russia, Japan and
most importantly Vietnam. China went to war with Vietnam in 1979. In 1974 China
seized the Paracel Islands and in 1988 sank two Vietnamese naval boats off the
Spratly Islands and then seized six coral atolls. An article in The Economist
has noted: "China's recent Spratly adventure exposed a widely peddled
fallacy: that the increasing integration of Asia's economies with each other and
with the outside world could somehow make the region immune to the insecurities
that have plagued it in the past. In reality, rapidly increasing defence spending
by Asian countries (not just China), made possible by rapid economic growth, has
started to threaten the stability on which continued prosperity depends. Meanwhile,
modernisation has given several countries the capacity to build the sorts of modern
weapons - from warships to missiles - that make conflicts harder to contain".
[20] China has a program to modernise its
nuclear weapons Professor Paul Dibb in a study prepared almost 10 years
ago for the International Institute of Strategic Studies in London, noted that
by 2010 China's nuclear force will number between 50 and 70 ICBMs with a range
of 12,000 kms. Such missiles will be capable of targeting Asia, western Russia,
the east coast of the US and Australia. [21] US
National Security writer Richard Delguadio in his book Peril In Panama
regards China as a military enemy of the US. The author stresses the growing military
capacity of China: "Red China has emerged as the premier strategic and
military threat to US security in the world. This massive population allows Red
China to put 3 million men on active duty and 12 million more in the reserves
- the world's largest military force. The army has 2,290,000 men under arms. The
navy has another 240,000 members, including about 25,000 in the naval air force,
and another 6,000 in the marines. These naval personnel operate as many as 1700
vessels, including China's more than 90 submarines, some of them armed with nuclear
missiles. The air force has 470,000 members, including 220,000 in air defence.
They fly an estimated 5000 combat aircraft. Red China has 18 intercontinental
nuclear missiles [soon to be 24], 13 of which were pointed at American cities,
and over 100 intermediate and medium range nuclear missiles. At this writing,
what the American media call the threat to the "modernization" of Red
China's nuclear missile forces, has just added another six long-range nuclear
missiles to this force. Reports abound about the latest US technology being made
available to Red China, to enable those missiles to strike at American targets
more accurately than ever before. An even more modern factory complex is being
finalised at this writing, to enable a faster and larger "modernization"
program in the future". [22] Israel, that
"great friend" of the US has betrayed vital US military technology to
the Chinese many times. In 1992 according to The Washington Times, Israel sold
to China the secret technology of the US Patriot Missile. Israel shared with China
restricted US weapons technology obtained during a joint US-Israel effort to build
a battlefield laser. Israel has also used US technology to assist China in developing
its J10 fighter aircraft. Early in 2001 an American surveillance plane was downed
by a Chinese J-8 fighter jet. The jet was equipped with Israel's Python air-to-missile
which Israel sold to China. The J-10 Chinese fighter jet is based on the Lavi,
an Israeli jet subsidised with $1.4 billion by the suckers in the US. Israel has
also to China its STAR-1 cruise missile technology, incorporating US Stealth technology.
These are all good reasons for a healthy nation to cease giving aid to Israel.
However the powerful Jewish lobby in America will see to it that this absurd situation
continues into the future. [23] China gets
the money to pay Israel for its treachery from its US$60 billion trade surplus
with the US. The CIA believes that China ultimately intends world domination.
[24] Australia's Asianisers do not deal with China's acts of genocide in Tibet,
including: · Sexual torture, forcing electric batons into nun's anuses
and vaginas; [25] · restrictions on the number of children allowed
Tibetans; · young Tibetan girls are often used as sexual slaves by
middleclass Chinese professionals; · abortions are performed on Tibetan
women without anaesthetic using a rubber tube with blades attached at the end
and with another tube to suck the tissue out; · mobile units perform
abortions and sterilisations as a policy of racial genocide; · medical
experiments are performed on Tibetans; · nuns are frequently placed
in cells with prisoners to be gang raped. Ninety
per cent of Tibet's forests have been destroyed and the timber taken back to China.
Tibet had been a sovereign nation for 1,200 years before China's invasion in 1949.
China says that Tibet is part of the "great motherland" but what mother
brutalises her children in the way china does? [26] The elites are generally silent
about the Tibetan tragedy, being ideological apologists for the Chinese regime.
Gareth Evans (remember him) defended China's civil rights inaction, while at the
same time lashing out at the White South African government. [27] It is a highly
selective moral halo that Evans and his ilk wear. [28] At
home, Chinese police systematically practice torture. [29] Executions for "social
crimes" frequently occur. [30] The party that killed well over 20 million
of its own people is still in power. Writer Zheng Yi documents that during the
cultural revolution, not only were thousands brutally murdered but their bodies
were available for cannibalism. The political elite ate the heart and liver and
the masses took the arms and legs. "Strolling down the street, the director
of the local Bureau of commerce [in Wuxuan] carried a human leg on his shoulder
that he was taking home to boil and consume. On the leg there still hung a piece
of a man's trouser". [31] in the Tongwan district in July 1968, Gao Dazuo,
a "class enemy" had his penis ripped off, and following that; flesh
from his thigh. Finally, he was torn apart while still alive. All this was done
by the party elite. How can cannibals and mass murderers lecture us with any credibility
about the 'evils" of the White Australia Policy? Asia
War It is interesting to observe that none of the Asianisers writing for
Murdoch's The Australian saw the Asia crisis coming. The "econophoria"
of the "so-called Asian economic experts" did not allow them to see
the social implications of these nation's economic policies. [32] More balanced
theorists, such as Professor Paul Dibb, head of the Australian National University's
Strategic and Defence Studies, doubts whether Asia will be the locus of world
power in the future due to environmental and social chaos, and national security
problems. [33] The Asian Development Bank in Manila calls Asia the "most
polluted and environmentally degraded" place in the world: · half
of Asia's forest cover has disappeared in the last 30 years; · its
cities are the most polluted on earth; · around one third of its agricultural
land is debased; · fish stocks have fallen by one half in the last
30 years; · Asia's rivers contain on average 20 times more lead than
rivers in the industrial West. [34] Asia, and
China in particular, is facing an ecologically unsustainable economic growth,
Kent Calder has argued, is a de-stabilisation of the Asia-Pacific. [36] Although
members of the Asian lobby such as Alison Broinowski sneer at the possibility
of an Asian invasion, [37] a number of other authorities accept that the possibility
does exist for guerrilla raids and acts of terrorism, perhaps even biological
and chemical warfare attacks on major population centres. [37] Former Governor-General
Bill Hayden claimed that Australia should begin to defend itself against future
Indonesian aggression. He believed that Australia should develop a nuclear weapons
capability - something we believe should have been done in Arthur Calwell's time
instead of conducting racial genocide by immigration against traditional Australia.
[39] Janes World Armies (1996) thought that Australia could face an invasion in
the 21st century. [40] Predictably enough, the Federation of Ethnic Communities
Councils of Australia attacked Hayden for these remarks and his claim that Asian
nations are more racist than Australia. The Herald Sun 8 April 1996 Vote
Line poll found that 94.3 per cent of callers agreed with Hayden. Sweden
can mobilise a 600,000 defence force in 24 hours with a population of about half
of Australia's. All Australia can mobilise is criticism from its whinging ethnics
who seem to hate the Australia that took them in and allows their hatreds to flourish,
to such a degree that they are prepared to go down with the "ship'. Many
senior military authorities over the last 10-15 years have warned that Australia
is incapable of defending itself. [41] Yet according to Arthur Calwell, the big
increase in Australia's non-Anglo population would save us from perishing. Never
mind about nuclear weapons, just import the migrants and we will be saved. The
great nationalistic philosopher Oswald Spengler in his book Hour of Decision
[42] lamented the racial suicide that the West had committed for allowing its
technology to fuel the demographic war that the Third World were waging against
the West. The idea of a nuclear armed China and India would have been even more
shocking to him. We in the West have openly allowed our technology, knowledge
and resources to be shared with the Asiatic in the name of capitalism, free trade
- call it what you will. [43] The end result will not be the improvement of our
lives as Asianisers propose but the destruction of the White race, and with it
probably civilisation itself. We have paid a heavy toll for following the path
of cosmopolitanism and 'anti-racism". NOTES 1.
