Australia may see 'an upsurge' of Chinese students despite Beijing's warnings | Sky News Australia

In a sign of further worsening of diplomatic relations, The Chinese Education Ministry released a statement last week urging its students to “do a risk assessment” and strongly reconsider travelling to Australia to attend university. The statement said during the coronavirus pandemic “there were multiple discriminating incidents against Asians in Australia”. Foreign Minister Marise Payne disputed this and accused Beijing of peddling a “disinformation” campaign.

The comments come as the federal government confirmed on Friday it will allow international students to return to Australia from July on a”pilot basis.” Chinese students make up a whopping 27 per cent of Australia’s international student population. Mr Kelly said despite Beijing’s “time honoured” campaign against China, Australia remains a very attractive destination for international students.

Beijing more and more COVID outbreak

More spies on there way

Wait and see

Beijing can literally stop them from coming if they wanted to not just a warning. If that happeded, majority of our universities would shut down.

Well Pauls such a wise slug...

Paul Kelly doesn’t understand how loyal most Chinese foreign students are to what their government says.

😂

Until we can allow Australian citizens to come and go freely in and out Australia then we shouldn’t be allowing foreign students into Australia

Not with a fresh COVID outbreak in Beijing they won’t!

As American has started to reject Chinese students, those students will mostly turn to Australia with no many choices. Australia universities prepare to take them like drugs and addict to it again.

I pointed it out several times that I don’t like them in Australia but they still keep coming. Why? They have nowhere to go. But I must say that some universities are good for nothing, money hungry only and should be shut down. They can’t survive without China’s bloody money.

Of course there will be, there was never any doubt about that. They will continue to increase in numbers to make Australia even more dependent on them.
