‘You’re missing out’: Jags fans don’t miss a beat as they pack EverBank Stadium for Thursday night watch partyAn Australian Border Force patrol boat is docked at the Port of Darwin, on May 17, 2016. The Australian government announced Friday, Oct. 20, 2023, it has decided not to cancel a Chinese companys 99-year lease on strategically important Darwin Port despite U.S. concerns that the foreign control could be used to spy on its military forces.

Neil James, chief executive of the Australian Defense Association think tank, said regulation cannot solve the security risk posed by Chinese control of the port.
