Chinese warships collect baby formula in Australia

Chinese warships that docked unexpectedly at an Australian port departed with a cargo of baby formula, local media discovered.

The arrival of a trio of Chinese ships, including an amphibious assault vessel, set off alarm bells on Monday morning among Australian citizens who did not have advance notice of the visit and analysts who regarded it as a show of force. But the trip also highlighted China’s vulnerabilities, as Chinese sailors were photographed loading baby formula onto the ships before they departed.

“What some Chinese colleagues were saying about ‘realistic socialism’ as true state of affairs in their country, and best epitomized here: advanced warships that project the State’s might while sailors cope with tainted food products back home,” Collin Koh, a research fellow at the Institute of Defense and Strategic Studies in Singapore, commented in a Friday night tweet.

Ok - thanks. Citizen Free Press may be a “blog” I guess, but like other sites, it has news items not originated on the site itself. I’ve posted a few articles from it and the arrows start flying. I have no association with that site and the articles I post I do so because I think they might be of interest to FReepers.
