Hello Prime Minister are we really going to war with China?

嘿，总理，我们真的要和中国开战吗？

It is remarkable how quick the geopolitical wind changes. It transforms a previously peaceful, warm trading relations between Australia and China to an imaginary enemy in such a short period since Dec 2016 when the China Panic began.

地缘政治风云变幻如此之快是值得注意的。自2016年12月“恐华论”（China Panic）开始以来，在如此短的时间内，原本存在和平、温暖的贸易关系的澳洲和中国变成了假想中的敌人。

The SMH broke the story “China the unspoken threat at centre of new defence strategy” (1July2020) “The updated plan throws open the way to everything except nuclear weapons. The new policy accepts that high-intensity war in our region is more likely than was envisaged by the defence white paper of 2016. The new plan instead seeks urgently to arm Australia with much more lethal weapons. Indeed, the Morrison government s strategy commits Australia to acquiring weapons systems that it long resisted for fear of seeming too aggressive. Australia is to buy ship killing missiles and shift focus to Indo Pacific. But now the question is not whether it s too offensive but whether it provides defence enough”.

《悉尼晨锋报》在《中国是新国防战略中的潜在威胁》（2020年7月1日）一文中写道“最新的计划为除核武器以外的一切打开了道路。新政策承认，我们地区发生高强度战争的可能性比2016年国防白皮书所设想的可能性更大。而新计划紧急寻求用更致命的武器武装澳洲。事实上，莫里森政府的战略承诺澳洲要获得一些武器系统，而长期以来，澳洲一直抵制这种武器系统，因为他们担心这些武器系统看起来过于咄咄逼人。澳洲将购买舰载杀伤导弹，并将重点转移到印度-太平洋地区。但现在的问题不在于它是否太具攻击性，而在于它是否提供了足够的防御。”

National President of Chinese Community Council of Australia Dr Anthony Pun wrote a response, published in the SMH:

对此，全澳华人社区议会主席潘瑞亮博士写了一篇回应，发表在《悉尼晨锋报》上：

"It is sad to hear the sound of distant war drums and our country preparing for war against an ideological "enemy" who has no nukes or missiles pointing at us. The US military industrial complex benefits from this unnecessary arm race. I thought post covid-19 recovery economic has more priority than war spending and pray tell, where do get massive $$ expensive armaments? Better for Australia to spend $$ developing into a South Pacific "hegemon" than wasting money up north.

听到遥远的战鼓声和我们的国家准备与一个没有核武器或导弹指向我们的假想“敌”开战，这是令人悲伤的。美国军工综合体会从这场不必要的军备竞赛中获益。我认为后疫情时代的经济复苏比战争开支和询问哪里能买到大量的昂贵武器更重要。对澳洲来说，与其把钱浪费在北部地区，不如把钱花在发展南太平洋的“霸权”上。

Chinese Australians are a peace loving people who have neither the need or desire to go to war with any of our neighbours and we would do all we can to convince our Australian government the folly of war, the sufferings it will bring to peoples on both sides.

澳洲华人是一群热爱和平的人，既不需要也不愿意同我们的任何邻国开战。我们将尽我们所能使我们的澳洲政府认识到战争的愚蠢，战争将给双方民众带来痛苦。

There are impossible logistics for national security, public safety and dampening racists tirades when 1.2 million Chinese Australians who have to confront a war with the land of their ancestors. Of course, as loyal Australians, we would take up arms if we were attacked however, to ferry Chinese Australians to fight an overseas war with China is unthinkable and an abominable nightmare.

当120万澳洲华人不得不面对与他们祖先的土地进行的战争时，有关国家安全、公共安全和遏制种族主义者的长篇大论是毫无道理的。当然，作为忠诚的澳人，如果我们受到攻击，我们会拿起武器，但是，把澳洲华人运到海外与中国打一场海外战争是不可想象的，是一场可怕的噩梦。

Hello Prime Minister, are you kidding us ? Or you must have been influenced so badly by ASPI and Peter Jennings who was talking on ABC last night (01/07/2020) implying that China is such a bad boy that we must be prepared to go to war to fight them, hence your are spending $270 billions tax payer hard earned dollars for it. Don t you think by the time all the weapons you wish to purchase are ready, the war may be over? How are you going to explain to our Australian people in spending such big sum while people are crying for better healthcare, education, social welfare and jobs, jobs and jobs.

嘿，总理，你在开玩笑吗？或者你一定受到了澳洲战略政策研究所（ASPI）和詹宁斯（Peter Jennings）的严重影响，因此你要花费2700亿澳元纳税人辛苦挣来的钱。詹宁斯在昨晚（2020年7月1日）通过澳洲广播公司（ABC）说，中国是个坏孩子，我们必须准备好与他们作战。你不觉得等你想买的武器都准备好了，战争可能就结束了吗？当人们在苦苦恳求更好的医疗保健、教育、社会福利和工作时，你将如何向我们澳人解释为什么要花这么多钱。

However, we are peace makers. We have solutions to avoid war with China. We have done it before last 47 years since we established full diplomatic relation in 1972 to keep Australia and China in peace. Both the peoples of Australia and China have benefited a lot from such a productive, constructive win-win relationship. We have all the diplomatic skill and talents to get both sides to sit down again and talk about all the misinformation and misunderstanding between China and Australia. Chinese culture is a peaceful culture. History shows that she only defended herself against invasions from many fronts in the past. Modern China does not welcome any war. She has openly stated in her foreign policy. Can Australia openly state the same? Is it worth it to be the gun powder for USA?

然而，我们是和平缔造者。我们有办法避免与中国开战。自1972年澳中建立全面外交关系以来，在过去47年里，我们一直在这样做，以维护澳中两国的和平。澳中两国民众都从这种富有成效、建设性的双赢关系中受益匪浅。我们拥有所有的外交技巧和才干，让双方重新坐下来谈谈澳中之间所有的误传和误解。中国文化是和平的文化。历史表明，她过去只为抵御来自多条战线的入侵而自卫。现代中国不欢迎任何战争。她已经在外交政策中公开声明了。澳洲能公开声明相同的内容吗？为美国当枪使值得吗？

The last six months have been a horrible xenophobic experience and now the nightmare for Chinese Australians. Hence, we would like to petition the PM Morrison to put our nation’s peaceful interest first and calm the fear and anxiety of 1.2 million Chinese Australians down about "war with China" war mongering talk? And we believe great majority of Australian people are on our sides: peace not war!!!

过去的6个月是可怕的仇外经历，现在是澳洲华人的噩梦。因此，我们请求莫里森总理把我们国家的和平利益放在首位，平息120万华裔澳人有关“对华战争”言论散布的恐惧和焦虑。而且我们相信绝大多数澳人都站在我们这边：和平而不要战争！！！
