A Chinese developer has bought an Australian Island and is now preventing Australians from setting foot on it, much to the frustration of locals and tourists.
A portion of Keswick Island, a potential tourist hotspot, was bought by China Bloom, who residents say is stopping locals from accessing the slice of paradise. They claim that the company has stopped them from accessing beaches, banned their boats from reaching the island and even prevented access to the island's airstrip.
Families also say that the company is killing tourism to the island as they have been banned from renting their properties or advertising them to tourists on Airbnb. "I just don't think they want Australians on the island," former resident Julie Willis told Australian news program A Current Affair."I think that they want to have this island solely for the use of the Chinese tourism market."Willis and her partner Robert Lee say that their problems were further compounded when they were told by the developer they had three days in February to vacate the property they had been renting without a problem for six years.
A spokesperson said:"The Department's responsibility is to work with both the head lessee China Bloom and sublessees to ensure all relevant activities are in accordance with the terms of the lease, particularly as China Bloom works to upgrade the island's roads, boat ramps, jetties and marine infrastructure.
Trump would have stopped this shit. Guess we have to get used to this and start learning how to make fried rice.

Too funny when your Government sell's you out , what do you think will happen ,Joe Biden is getting ready to sell America, only we kept our Guns, 80+million will be a war to recon with, most lib-tards will hide in a box
This is what China have been doing in many countries. I hope our government is taking a cue from this. AndrewHolnessJM
