John Fitzpatrick. About New China, the Koreas, Myanmar, Thailand, and also about Japanese and Chinese writers and poets. The main emphasis is on North Asia and the political tectonics of this very important, powerful, and many-peopled area.

Wouldn't you think that any decent media here in Cairns or in Townsville (both owned by the same media group) would be doing great life stories and pictorials of Julian Assange, the local boy who has changed the whole world with a few simple objective truths? Isn't that a good story? Don't local high achieving people really matter? Do we just have to be left with Nick Dalton?
Wouldn't you think that any decent media organisation here in Cairns or in Townsville (both owned by the same media group) would be doing great life stories and pictorials of Julian Assange, the local boy who has changed the whole world with a few simple objective truths? By being right and smart? Isn't that a good story? Don't local real high achieving people matter? Do we just have to be left with the fascinating story of raconteur Nick Dalton of The Cairns Post? Is that it?
Remember Nick Dalton, the finance and real estate guru and expensive car reviewer, at The Cairns Post, spruiking the massive Chinese development at Yorkeys Knob..Aquis...a huge development...the biggest in the world...and how it was certain to go ahead...day in day out...page one, page two...page three......for years.. and unfortunately perhaps unwittingly artificially inflating property prices at Yorkeys...even when it was eventually very clear that it couldn't happen ever...because of China's anti corruption pogrom...well, strangely enough, he wasn't the Cairns Post journalist to report the deal couldn't happen. That was left to an underling. Now Nick is talking up investments in the CBD by a Syrian billionaire.
So, as Trump decides not to say anything today, the attention of the Western media has to be always towards generating a story...and there is only the objective facts of Wikileaks ... and all the good work being done by that great young Australian fellow Julian Assange, from Townsville, Queensland, who is not a Russian at all...just an Australian blue eyed blonde haired boy truth teller...who Clinton wants dead. Clinton: "Why can't we Drone him?" A serious question. The most serious question Hillary ever asked whilst US Secretary of State. Her most serious attempt to deal with the real world and objective truths.
