The subject of foreign investment in agricultural land and agribusiness has been the subject of fierce debate.
Six months before the motion was moved at the Victorian Liberal conference, then deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce gave a speech to the National Farmers Federation in which he warned foreign ownership of agricultural land was a threat to patriotism and national sovereignty. Ms Liu has admitted being a member of some organisations, but suggested that she might have been appointed to positions without her knowledgeABC revealed that Ms Liu was a council member of two chapters of the China Overseas Exchange Association
Ms Liu has also held honorary positions in a number of other organisations linked to the Chinese government's United Front activities, which seek to expand its influence in foreign countries.
Politicians typically don't care where the money comes from as long as they get what they want: Australians sold all of Australia for greed and profit' which has come and bit them in the arse now ? we all forget no foreign country or individual can own land in China👹
Why is this woman still in office why hasn't scomo booted her out yet, not looking good for liberals
Where does she stand on Hong Kong her homeland? With the protesters seeking continuation of the 2 system solution OR with Beijing who want to absorb HK into the PRC single party authoritarian Communist state?
I’ve read that Gladys Donated $1million To LNP. Is this even CLOSE to true. Who paid her Airfares to Australia
Penny Wong and Joel Fitzgibbon also spoke about easing foreign investment rules, to the same rates as outlined in this article, and especially with regard to Ag land acquisition. It was ALP policy.
ScottMorrisonMP AlboMP we need urgent establishment of Federal ICAC. ausbiz auspol GladysLiu AFR
If that's accurate then OneNationAus should want her out too
HkarterKarter This just gets murkier
She is LNP so they can do wat they like?
For people who understand the Chinese political system, GladysLiu is a well-paid (with covet money, fame & connections), high ranked Chinese government employee; it's an undeniable fact ASIO
Does ScottMorrisonMP have anything to say about giving away our food security to foreign 'investors'? Hence Gladys has just shown her lack of loyalty for this country. Did she ever support our farmers first? auspol
Yous are upsetting the Premier with poor media about the Chinese Communist Party.......and their sister arm. Victoria.
Influence not advocacy? The line has become so blurred lately. Maybe powerful people are having trouble distinguishing ok and not ok.
When you bring $1 million in fundraising you can make a lot of friends
The sooner she resigns the better and it's time to stop being polite about it! Australia is being bought by the CCP! fools
Gladys must go
The airport's that way -----
It's okay, Gladys was not an 'active' president, they were just using her name. But seriously, Gladys' policies do seem to be lining up with Beijing's. Disturbing.
No doubt the LNP had a quota to fill to secure its 'foreign investments'
Quilty commie
