- Опубликовано: 28 май 2024
- For the first time ever, a former spy for China’s notorious secret police - one of the most powerful arms of the country’s intelligence apparatus - goes public, exposing the covert and illegal operations he was ordered to carry out on foreign soil and the dissidents he was tasked with tracking, including in Australia, Canada, India, Cambodia and Thailand.
In a major investigation reported by the ABC’s Echo Hui, the spy - who goes by the name Eric - comes out of the shadows at great danger to himself, revealing his face to expose how China has used its global network over the last two decades to surveil, silence and kidnap those its government and president Xi Jinping deems enemies of the state.
The spy divulges his double life and the secrets he’s been guarding. He reveals the inner workings of the secret police, including the companies they use as cover, who his targets were, and the tactics he used to hunt them down.
It raises tough questions about China’s global reach and Australia’s national security.

Great work ABC 🎉 hopefully this video will be promoted on the Chinese ABC newsletter too. The Chinese who live in Australia deserve to know the truth too.
Why I am not that surprised!
Not suprised Here also in the Philippines and they want to took our land also.
I find this no surprise at all but thankyou for bringing it out.
Just tip of the iceberg.
These guys are very brave
It's quality work like this that the ABC is most famous for. The stories other news outlets don't dare run !
wow only now they have noticed. this has been going on for a long long time
Now the whole world will know the dark side of China
Everyone knows, they just don't care, or worse, they wish they could do the same...
A Chinese Spy walks into ASIO
So fascinating that this is the first time I’ve seen a person who has been able to do this
make it viral pls
Mind blowing
As a Chinese in Australia, I'm very shocked.
Great job ABC! It's important that stories like this be told. And to those in the comments who are saying "what's the big deal? All countries do this. What's the difference between this and what the CIA does?" the key difference is that the CCP has VERY different ideas of what a "crime" is than most of the rest of the world. Political opposition/criticism and political cartooning are not crimes in democracies.
Please share this video with all that you know.
World need to wake up
Insightful
not surprised but thank you for the insight.
They’ve been doing this all over the Philippines 🇵🇭 too. And they’ve also had a growing presence in Canada 🇨🇦.

China is too good a customer for Australia to take any action on this.
Take care and be strong , praying for you all .
fire investigation
The Meth Highway episode recently released was brilliant. If anyone knows who that journalist was I am very interested to know
He choose to reveal all of these for his own safety, else he might still carry out such activities.
Not surprised !

It would be hard to be a spy and not keep it a secret. lol
I'm proud of ABC. Not even Australian…
