Aus Academic Intimidated by China’s State Media
An Australian academic has accused the Chinese government of intimidation after being stalked by its state media for weeks. Kevin Carrico, a Chinese Studies lecturer at Macquarie University, was being followed by Wen Wei Po, a state-owned Hong Kong newspaper after it published a front page article accusing him of causing political unrest. Dr Carrico says it won’t change what he does, but how concerned should we be about Chinese surveillance?
Chin Jin, the President of the Federation for a Democratic China joined us to discuss this topic.
