US, Europe, Japan, about to flop in the gutter, still protecting corrupt markets.

China & India, the worlds most populous nations will become Australia's prime markets for meat (and fish?), fibers, minerals:

Red meat deal with China “tremendous�

That's what was said about Nippon 40 years ago. Looks like the Chinese and Indians will hollow out the US and Europe.

Well Australias last on the boat again?


UK is one of the main trade partners of China in western Europe, which has been illustrated by a continuous growth of bilateral trade volume in recent years. UK has been the second largest trade partner of China among EU countries. Statistics by the Chinese side show that in the year of 2001 the Sino-British trade volume reached US$10.31 billion, 4.1% higher than that of the same period of previous year. By July 2002, bilateral trade volume approximate US$6.17 billion, 8.2% higher than that of the same period of last year. British actual investment in China has been the largest among the EU countries. By June 2002, UK has invested 3233 projects in China, with a real input of about US$10.4 Billion. UK has provided China four government loans since 1986, totaling 855 million pound (approximately US$1.37 billion). Sino-British Economic and Trade Joint Committee was established in 1996, and three sessions have been held. China-UK Investment Partnership was established in 2001. In November 2001, the Second Session of China-UK Financial Dialogue was held in Beijing.

True, by and large. The opening of China will be good for Australian primary industries and processors and may help crack open the protected and heavily subsidized US, EU and Jap markets.

Should add that it may be bad for Australia's manufacturing industries due to their smallness.

China is not interested in Australian manufactured goods it can produce far cheaper goods even better quality , so its down to gas , hole digging plus the odd food stuffs.

Sounds like an improvement to me. Have you seen the terrible pollution that Chinese industrialization is creating? Like Europe only much worse.

Nothing compared to the pollution in industrialized Europe, India and China. The opening and expansion of markets for Aus primary produce should provide opportunities for people in rural Australia. Very impressed with the potential in the Northern Territory especially. Mangoes and aquaculture in particular.

It that the alumina refinery?

Bit of iron dust?

Marvelous what has been done to clean up the Thames Valley.

Think you might find that the main problem in the Swan is phosphate and nitrate eutrophication causing algal blooms. Some algae are toxic to fish but more often the problem is that bacterial digestion of dying algae results in low dissolved oxygen causing the fish to asphyxiate.

Where are Perth's sewage outflows, not in the Swan surely?

River woes draw most concern

No the paint pigment plant TIwest ( yanks ) and the Aluminium refinary as for the Swan the blame is put on the mines farther up stream or its said .
