    Better representation of Asian Australians in politics is needed more than ever
    Gao, J ; Jurriëns, E ; Harper, C (International Institute for Asian Studies, 2022-07-05)
    With a federal election looming in Australia, the representation of ethnic minorities in the country’s politics will be almost certain to come under the spotlight again. Asian Australians have long been a topic of analysis and debate because of Australia’s anti-Asian past and the new politics of ethnic representation. Analysts and observers, including myself, will devote special attention Chinese-Australian candidates and how the communities will vote in the coming election, after years of being suspected of being the fifth column of Chinese communists and having their loyalty to Australia openly questioned.
