A Taiwanese feast with wood fired roast chicken.
Quite exquisite and very different to the Cantonese style that Aust is used to.

Hing Hee clay pot rice dishes made famous by various celeb chefs visits. Just had to have my fix - chicken+mushroom, pork ribs+taro, fried oyster pancake, stir fry morning glory.
The rice needs their special soy sauce to give it its charred rice flavour - just divine!

Watch how our society in all its facets - built by men, designed by men, produced by men, predominantly controlled by men - works to protect the man every time

Industry normally leads govt in research and specific industry sector. I am not sure why this is a breakdown? After all it is in that enterprise’s interest to forge ahead in its own sector, not the govt
Rio Tinto being lengths ahead of our elected representatives on renewables. Surely this points to a breakdown in the proper functioning of a responsive democracy? @catrionajackso1 #auspol

Readers are well aware of our special interest in calm and rational coverage of China. Often we focus on geopolitics, and the change in China’s position in a world of continual, swirling change is fascinating.

History Book by Abbott is an attempt to rewrite history to white being right. His interview dictates we ignore indigenous truth telling (currently in Victoria) yet he vehemently defends the verbal history of his beliefs (as a staunch Catholic) before it was written down and edited and edited etc.
