Quora: China applies pressure on Australia

 Quora

China keeps on applying pressure on Australian exports as a punishment. Will the very same China punish Australia by not sending migrants and students to live and study in the country?
Ridzwan Abdul Rahman replied:
The number of students from China applying for a place in Australian universities has dropped significantly (by 44%) for 2021. This is significant because China has fully recovered from C19 infections and there is no reason for the numbers to drop, other than the students themselves no longer preferring to study in Australia.
I expect the number of migrants from China to Australia to also be reduced for fear of bad treatment in Australia. Asian Australians, particularly of Chinese heritage, reported an increase in abuse and racist attacks ('I need time to heal': Chinese-Australians speak out after racist vandal attack) because the coronavirus was first detected in China.
