Former Labor MP Michael Danby says Australia cannot have easy relations with a system like China which “not just in wet markets, but in all other areas, seems to be a player that’s rogue in the international system”.

The wet markets in Wuhan have widely been attributed as the source of the deadly virus, but Mr Danby said in China there is a “wider problem than the wet markets”. He pointed to the “two million Uighur Muslims in concentration camps” and how communist China has “militarised the South China Sea” as crucial issues in China’s system which prevent reasonable foreign relations.

Fellow panelist and Greens Senator Sarah Hanson Young told Sky News host Sharri Markson she is “concerned about the call just to ban wet markets in China” fearing the move would drive the practice to the “black market”. “The last thing we want is to push that underground,” Ms Hanson Young said.

Boycott China, bring back your industries - no business & no travel from China and the world will be safe forever. Let them eat what they want to eat

It's taking long enough for those in government to realize that China is not our friend and never will be, at best a trading partner but even that should have safeguards in place.

Maybe should listen earlier 'Coronavirus began in US, not China, Chinese official suggests' 'The United States is the country of origin for most of the coronavirus cases in Australia, the prime minister has said.'

'wet markets in Wuhan...attributed as...source of [C-19]...'wider problem...'2 million Uighur Muslims in concentration camps' and how communist China...'militarised...S. China Sea'...issues...which prevent reasonable foreign relations' (with China).

Their wet markets are despicable and disgusting

China has proven itself so totally deficient. We need to rely on them to safeguard our lives. They've shown again and again in the past 4 months that they are completely untrustworthy. We now have a major interest in Chinese domestic affairs. People here in US are realizing this.

People need to understand what a Chinese wet market really is. One Bloomberg reporter said they are the equivalent of an American 'Farmers Market', The problem here is people are also very slow in understanding what is reality.
