What an honour to see a full-page review of my book in this weekend's The Australian newspaper Paul Monk writes that "it is a beauty. It demonstrates exquisitely detailed research, originality of thought, maturity of judgement and a wide-angled vision of geopolitics."


China Matters and Australia-China Relations Institute are proud to announce Edward Chan 陳星宇 is the inaugural China Matters-UTS:ACRI Fellow! Read more about Dr Chan and the Fellowship here chinamatters.org.au/china-matters-…


Not uplifting but a must Australia-China read by MargaretSimons on the demise of China Matters. Those who played a role in bringing this about should hang their heads in shame. Please don't imagine you are champions of liberal democracy. Linda Jakobson themonthly.com.au/issue/2024/jul…

Read the story of China Matters. Linda Jakobson for the first time speaks publicly about the 2020 attacks on the institute. Written by MargaretSimons The Monthly chinamatters.org.au/wp-content/upl…

Definitely worth reading. A thorough piece. Small but important correction: China Matters was NOT brought down. The organisation continued to function and bounced back after the attacks. Post-attacks it published Tim Watts MP Dave Sharma, Peter Varghese, hosted Office of Kevin Rudd, 26th PM of Australia etc

It's an honour to be joining the Editorial Board of Australian Journal of International Affairs.. tandfonline.com/action/journal… I look forward to working with editors Joanne Wallis, @timlegrand and Dr. Adela Alfonsi, along with other board members, to support the journal continuing to hit new heights.
