Australian intelligence uncovers and blocks Chinese funding of election candidate through businessman
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (#ABC) reported on Friday (11th February) that the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) had discovered the close ties between an Australian businessman and China, funding a pro-Beijing Labor Party candidate in this year's federal election.
The report cited an Australian security source that China's intelligence service was working through an Australian businessman to fund members of the Australian largest opposition party, the Labor Party, for the New South Wales constituency in the May parliamentary election. China promised to increase China's influence in the Australian parliament if elected.
But the plan was seen and blocked by Australia's official security intelligence organization.

Winter Olympic Athletes Were Surprisingly Reluctant to Speak
German luger Natalie Geisenberger, who was critical of China, when asked about her view on China's human rights issues a day after earning a gold medal, said peaking out was a matter of timing. "You have to be careful when you say what and where you say it", she said.
To her self-censorship, some netizens said it is unbearable
What China is trying to show the world through this Olympics? Alain Frachon, a French columnist for Le Monde, believes that "President Xi Jinping's China has proven that it is imposing its standards of civil liberties - on Chinese nationals and foreigners. In the ideological battle, the West is not on the podium."
Advertisers and multinational enterprises have been warned that no representatives of theirs can publicly speak out on Xinjiang or Hong Kong's human rights issues, not even in a few words tweets, or they will face heavy retaliation.

#EnesKanterFreedom is a #US basketball player who dares to criticise the #CCP on public platforms on Hong Kong, Taiwan and Xinjiang issues.
He recently published a post on #Twitter that China cannot affect the US externally but internally. He uses #NBA as an example -- he was a basketball player being sold to #HoustonRockets, then soon be a free agent. The whole process is only 10 minutes.
During the #AntiELAB movement in Hong Kong in 2019, the then-Houston Rockets manager once confessed before the CCP government due to showing support to HKers.
