china imposed on australia in 2020 are cases of economic coercion. and the intent is for china to change australian policy, including on issues of the south china sea, nterference. stephen: on his reading, the trade sanctions flowed from demands by china's communist party for retaliation against any perceived threats or criticism of china. scott: xi jinping has instructed china to resolutely defend ainst any internal or external threat to the communist party, and so that so-called "battle stance" has become embedded within the party, within the ministry of foreign affairs, and its wolf warrior diplomacy, and down into economic units, including the ministry of commerce, the state administrations of customsnd quarantine. so, if you're a mid-level official in one of those economic departments, your incentive, the way that you get ahead, is to appeal to that spirit. jane: economic coercion is a very deliberate activity to try and make the australian government change its policy stance. it's certainly not clear that that's what beijing has set out to do and nor is it clear that they have achieved that goal, but i think what we can say is that by the time

third question, where does manga grow and you said, but in china it really grows, of course it's true, there are a lot somewhere in the south of answers in thailand 14 people said so, and in the tropics 34 people said so. you said to china yourself agreed to zero there was no such option, but somehow it’s true for most people, apparently. and mango not associated. well, that is, here the knowledge of objects harms the fourth question: what kind of mines are there? it's complicated. now come up with a second popularity answer, but the most popular one is coal diamond. no, lift lift this version of your sheet really. and you said industrial mines ah and you yourself agreed to three people, 173 points. industrial and agricultural mines the fifth question was. this is where everything will be decided. and wow, you need to score 27 points, what can you bite? and i i don’t even remember, we counted, guys. let's count. well, we're sorry, right? and? i just know the result is simple, and now you said food, but bite the man. took a bite of food. yes, strange. here, if you said lip, if you can bite your lip. here you have earned 23 p

as some of the regional flush points, including taiwan and the south china sea of what we've seen on the south china sea is that despite the pandemic um, problematic actions in the south china sea have continued. these include number one ah, chinese encroachments upon fixed use of economic zones of various coastal states. the defense chiefs met on the sidelines of the shangri la dialogue. the most significant security summit in the region organizes say the importance of the 3 day conference is mostly about what happens behind closed doors. if you are one of the more than 2 dozen defense ministers that come to the shangri la dialogue, you're coming not just to speak, but in order to have a range of bilateral meetings. secretary austin ultimate with defense officials from southeast asia as the u. s. seeks to reassure countries of its commitment to the region while waging influence continues to rise. china's engagement on the economic front has been sustained, not just in the last year or 2, but it's been sustained over decades in terms of its trade engagement with the region. while most

of the world. so why china cannot defend itself? and also, on the solomon islands, the southknow, "can only us go there?" australia go there. china cannot. who can divide which part of territories belong to whom? but basically, china isjust going there to do the green and the sustainable development and maintain some local order... well... ..helping other countries on their request. yours is a very benign interpretation of china's intentions. but i think nobody would argue that, over the last five years, president xi has followed a very clear and determined strategy of projecting china's power in the world in a range of diverse ways, from soft power to economic power to sometimes military power. now, ijust wonder if, in the current economic climate in china, xi's strategy is sustainable — cos it costs a lot of money. and right now, there are signs of a serious slow—down in the chinese economy. well, i think it's actually not... of course, this pandemic hit everybody, but china are probably the least hurt because we still maintained, last year, 8% gdp growth, and this year...

in the region to follow this example, and in particular we are talking about china, and this is also the security of the south, the security of taiwan , as they say, increasing influence for china in the region, this is one of the important problems for the security of australia, so they are aware of this and they understand that ukraine needs to be supported and attention should also be paid on the fact that australia's security is determined by their partnership with the united states, that's why they focus on their allies, so clean relations with great britain are traditionally eh. here they look at how the united states and great britain support us, get involved in this process eh, and in this way their struggle is related to these, and we must not forget that uh, in australia, there is such a policy of uh, countries in relation to uh, they call them countries that are close in spirit, yes, that is, although literally it sounds like a detcountris, that is countries that think the same way as they and you recently, they believe that ukraine is the one that likes to have decanters . that is, it is a country

and it's just a matter of particular concern, given that china is militarization of the the islands in the south china sea. i think so, and i think that's a major concern. the us, the southeast asian countries, i'm paying attention to being the natural that connects to freedom of navigation in southeast asia as maritime fishery and all those maritime territory claims. the whole concern stuff is asian countries. a lot. so that's a factor that i think the regions paying close attention to any remains to be seen what china intend to do with that new axis. right? we'll leave it there for the time being, but always a pleasure talking to you about the song from the in your college of asia and the pacific. thank you so much for joining us today. thanks for having me. ah, thailand has become the 1st asian country to legalize growing and consumption of mattie wanna smoking it, remain span though. growers will have to register with the government and when offered in food or drink its strength will have to be limited. the aim is to give a boost to the agriculture sector and no one has a problem with that.

of what we've seen on the south china sea is that despite the pandemic um, problematic actions in the south china sea have continued. these include number one ah, chinese encroachments upon the excuse of economic zones of various coastal states. the defense chiefs met on the sidelines of the shangri la dialogue. most significant security summit in the region. organizers say the importance of the 3 day conference is mostly about what happens behind closed doors. if you're one of the more than 2 dozen defense ministers that come to the shangri la dialogue, you're coming not just to speak, but in order to have a range of bilateral meetings. secretary austin also met with defense officials from southeast asia as the us seeks to reassure countries of its commitment to the region. while beijing's influence continues to rise. chinese engagement on the economic france, it has been sustained, not just john, in the last year or 2, but it's been sustained over decades. and in terms of its trade engagement with the region, while most of the world's attention will be on the u. s. and china, for of

china's interests at the fore. an acceptance of all countries in the region of its claims in the south china sea. cs the most effective approach here from countries like australia and other u.s. allies in terms of countering the risk from china? i thought it was interesting that with the visit from the chinese prime minister, we saw specific island nations showing some doubt and reluctance as to what beijing was proposing. victor: absolutely. the key approach that a lot of like-minded nations will be taking is to be reinforcing the military and diplomatic links between each other and also a focus on foreign aid. very much, china takes a trade first approach. it has an enormous checkbook. it is wonderful that countries like australia have good relations with other states in the region, but money talks, and we nations also have to be able to have that checkbook to be able to counter that influence. so you will see a focus on forming military links with the u.s. and each other, but also a focus on producing financial support the way a prosperous region does in that way, to help keep china out. shery
