I rather like Chinese... some of them have been here so long they're hardly Chinese any more anyway.  Besides, they are generally easy to get along with and cook great food....

I think they prefer to stay out of the limelight - embarrassing.  They often just want to be 'normal' again as in Lawrence of Arabia.. often very difficult to do.  the general feeling is "Now that it's all over I can go home and just be myself again".

Often doesn't work, sadly, and a situation not helped by the refusal of many even in the armed forces to accept that there are many real problems for Veterans.  The CMS - a woman rear admiral - said that PTSD was no more prevalent among Afghanistan and Iraq Veterans than the 'normal' service community.  Pure refusal to see what is plain in the eyes of those men and the occasional woman.

I think Billy Sing just wanted to fade away - became a monumental drunk.

Fess up man. You only like the Chinese that are "...hardly Chinese any more..."

I see no problem there - they share common values with us, and they breed some beautiful women...

Christ - you'd complain it was raining mere silver when it was a golden rainbow or shower for you...   :D


Got me a Number One Chinese lady in KL - goes to the tennis with an SAS parachute instructor.... her grandfather flew his Tiger Moth on recon missions in 1942 then island-hopped to Australia to join the RAAF.

Excellent lady....

You win the golden shower.

When you are copulating do you close your eyes and fantasize she is white?

We Chinese are the Glorious People.

We don't care about being called "Australian", because we are always "Australian Chinese" or sometimes we are "Chinese Australians". Being Australian is like a flag of convenience.

We are special and we will kill millions of our own citizens, exploit massive populations and then come to your shores with suitcases of cash to buy property, impose our values upon you that is not even care about being part of your society, except for the free English lessons when we attend your schools and cheap universities. We never cheat, and we have the world's best hygiene and food hygiene.

Now forget Mr Sing and learn about Mr Song.

He's a real Chinese.

You need to grow up and realise who the new world's masters are. We are so good, we have a 1990s Soviet hulk that we painted, towed out to sea and Tell Our People is an aircraft carrier, even though it has no planes. We have reached this Glorious Achievement exactly 95 years after Japan (they are dogs) built the world's first working, strategically useful aircraft carrier in 1920. But because we are Chinese we are better.

Have a nice day.

No.

We are Chinese - we are strong. Australian citizenship is nothing more than a flag of convenience for us. We are not Australian, but rather we are Chinese Australian or Australian Chinese or just Chinese, when and where it suits us to be.

Don't believe we are strong?

During the gold rush days the colonies made special laws against the chinese to try and stop them coming over to our gold fields. It didn't work though.

I have always wondered if there are Australians today who are related to those chinese that came over here in the 19th century. Although I guess after all these generations they probably wouldn't even look asian any more.

It didn't have to work. The closet poms bashed and killed Chinese and the closet poms Hydraulic Jacks stole their mines.

Local lass here had a Chinese grandmother or something - very nice look and you can see it in her...

Seeing Poms were about the only sizeable group in Oz at the time .....


Anyway, the Aborigines ate the Chinese, according to history once taught in Australian schools.  Apparently, Chinese are tastier than whites, although can't speak from experience

Had me a Maori mate once - he was chatting about a Japanese resort on the North Island - he reckoned they'd make good eating when things got tough - nice rice-fed little bastards....

Know quite a few Chinese descended families... especially in FNQ.

Many are as Chinese looking as their forebears ... others are a fine eurasian mix.

Mind you during the Palmer River Gold Rush days they were the preferred tucker of Aboriginals ..... Long Pig .... less salty than white men.  ;D
