    As an interstate truck driver I of course have been following your life's story for many years, ballet and truck driving being so closely linked. All the best for retirement. I have been retired for 8 years and play golf daily. (A different type of driving) It's ballet for me. You would be great if not magnificent at it. All the best.

    Aren't we blessed to live in a western democracy? We take what has been given to us for granted. But what we have was hard won by great sacrifices of past generations. So beware of the Woke who dream of stripping us of our traditions and who seek to rewrite our history. We must do better for Aboriginal Australians. Ensure the millions taxpayers pay for Indigenous peoples health, welfare and housing is accounted for and that Indigenous people are consulted in these.matters .They are the.ones too long deprived and not given a voice. This has to change, they live in the outback towns and in areas that need financial backing , and too long these tax dollars have been misused, been unaccounted for. We give but never see any improvement in their circumstances. It is a big black hole. We need dedicated MPs and need to get rid of the thousands of dead wood public servants running hundreds of departments who do only God alone knows .

    Li's experience should be a warning to all australian wokesters that communism is NOT the answer to a fortunate life.

      Just as well that Australia is not communist, not even close, and never will be.

      Agreed. Li Cunxin is not really politically involved but his story definitely shows the dangers of Communism.
