The psyche of the Chinese community in Australian party politics
by Anthony Pun and Daphne Lowe-Kelley
In a free and democratic country like Australia, immigrants come from all over the world to make a new life and create better opportunities for themselves and their descendants. Since there is no discrimination in the education system and business opportunities, there should not be any significant difference between Australians of Chinese, Italian, Greek or Lebanese descent in business and professional endeavours. Yet, when it comes to political participation and Australian party politics, the Chinese Australian community does not fare well and is not as representative as it should be.
