我搞了个中文播客，专门讲澳洲生活，现在出了第二集，讲租房，也浅谈了房屋危机的问题，欢迎订阅！ podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/%...

This is a substantial story from @wingkuang.bsky.social - one the Murdoch mullahs of angertainment will flock to for a distraction that ticks many of their culture wars. A crackdown on the Darian Gap has pushed many people fleeing China to turn to Australia. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Exclusive from me: Australia refuses to reveal how many Chinese nationals have reached Australia by boat since 2024 citing damage to bilateral relations, but public records in Indonesia show many Chinese have tried to arrive by boat — but failed: www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Scoop by me: Taiwanese Indigenous dance at Women's Asian Cup briefly cancelled, politician claims www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

We have a very timely episode for you at the Little Red Podcast: State Capture or Mind Capture? China's Spy Strategy on 3 Continents omny.fm/shows/the-li...

I’m an Australian now!!!

putting politics aside, it’s very impressive that Ted O’Brien speaks such fluent Mandarin.

A very cute piece I did for @SBSNews this Lunar New Year - on first-Gen migrants heading back to Asia for LNY and experiencing culture shock 'I want to taste everything': Why millions of people make this annual pilgrimage www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

New from me, and omg look at this great lead image from SBS graphic design team: How to set boundaries and manage family expectations during Lunar New Year www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

NEW from me: Lawmakers around the world are trying to stamp out image-based abuse, but ubiquitous and evolving technologies make regulation difficult. www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

In 2025 I ran for two jobs that said they were for early career/fresh grads. One said I was overqualified and not fresh grad enough (which is fair, and good on them for keeping the criterion). The other one hired a journo with 10yr+ experience. WTF.

New from me: how a group of angry Chinese farmers spent a year and finally succeeded in getting Beijing to implement tariffs on Australian beef: www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

Great detail in this story: no police looked into the racist poster until someone working in public health (and hence understand the bureaucratic system) took it to police multicultural liaison officer, and they did probe into it and actually found the suspects: www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...

New from me on the latest discussion on gun law reform following the Bondi terror attack: 'Different blind spots': Where are the gaps in Australia's gun laws? www.sbs.com.au/news/article...

Approaching 30 as a Chinese means in your group chat where every else is above 30, you don’t share reels about Xmas, but tips from Fengshui guys on what to watch out for in 2026

Give this piece a read pls. And thanks to the author for speaking up! www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topi...

Finally!!!! I passed the certification test for Chinese to English!!! That means I can now produce court-qualified translation for Chinese and English!! Are you looking for a journo who can do investigation AND certified translation? Now you know who you can talk to 👀

I’ve been monitoring online discussions from Hong Kong about why HKers consider blaming bamboo scaffolding is a gov spin, and I think many AUS media have got it WRONG. They think it’s a spin NOT because they see bamboo scaffolding as a tradition that distinguishes HK from China.

I actually have a list called “the managers and editors who I will work for free for a year, if one day they decide to launch their own companies/outlets”, for how they have stood up for me in the past

Thanks Guardian for letting me try court reporting this year…and look like more on the way next year… www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

So basically some of them earn their income from migrants, and some of them are migrants too www.smh.com.au/politics/nsw...

Would be interesting to know how this development will affect the energy policy, or whether the current energy direction covers this

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.

As someone who likes cold weather, I really hope that by 33 I can move to either Canberra or Hobart

1/ wtf is going on at Home Affairs? I’ve lost count of the number of offshore detention-related scandals 2/ check out how hard the whistleblower tried to alert authorities, only to be ignored 3/ both Labor and Lib govts have actively turned a blind eye to this corruption. Prob the NACC too.

Two more months before 2025, and this feature is still the best of 2025 I’ve read so far. Theres just some magic about this piece that makes me ponder a lot as a writer: www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Sorry but as someone who’s trained under the Chinese Gaokao system it’s very absurd to read about the QLD Augustus and Caesar saga Wouldnt you have to study them together in order to understand how Roman Empire was founded??????????

Got told by parent of a high school friend who’s visiting AUS today that “you are very impressive - you moved to a foreign country, studied, and now work there. You build your own life from nothing here.” Oh gosh yes, I’m indeed impressive😭

I feel that even I’m now older I still have that personality of fighting, so I think probs next year I will still be a journo. But I do constantly have existential crisis when I realise I’m in a industry that isn’t ready to accept my existence. You do constantly feel you shouldn’t exist

Just before I turn 29, I ticked the box that my Chinese friends in Australia all had before they quit news and began doing comms: being both under qualified and overqualified. Let’s see if I indeed can’t break the curse that no female intl student-turned-journo could work more than 5yrs in AUS

CALL OUT: Are you an Australian who now lives in Asia or works in Asia-related jobs, after falling in love with Asian cultural products? I’m working on a feature for SBS News and I’m keen on having a chat with you! 📧: [email protected]

So I’ve spent a year trying to not do journalism…but I still ended up doing some creative projects that reflect my own thinking about the J-word. And in this one, I challenge lots of stereotypes that I think those inside the industry hold about migrant stories: allthebestradio.com/featured/the...

New episode of the Little Red Podcast!! podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/t...

A story I wrote on transnational repression for SBS News yesterday: At senate estimate on Wednesday, Home Affairs have detailed efforts to help counter targeted efforts from foreign governments to intimidate and harass members of diaspora communities in Australia: www.sbs.com.au/news/podcast...

Thinking of all my former colleagues in the regional, digital and audio teams who were hired as a result of the Meta and Google funding, got told we lost the jobs because they now had no money, only to find they spend $2.5 million on this www.theguardian.com/media/2025/o...

This year I haven’t done any China reporting (I don’t count chinese Australian reporting as China reporting, that’s completely different), but with my podcast production gigs I’ve just been able to work on so many quality field reporting that no one in Australia can do so. Aww.

A good thing about ageing is that when I’m told I won’t move forward because of my voice, appearance and things that I can’t control, I no longer push myself to think “that’s my fault, I need to work ten times harder” and then get endless angry with myself… 1/

RALLY TO SAVE MEANJIN Thursday 11 Sep 9am Outside the Melbourne University Publishing office, 715 Swanston St, Carlton. A number of Australian writers and editors will speak in support of this vital cultural institution

Reading the China coverage on WWII by Australian media makes me desperate. Can we at least just mention that back in 1945 the People’s Republic of China wasn’t even founded? That it’s actually necessary to mention ROC/Taiwan in this coverage, not merely as a China’s target, but helped the war end?

From Alex Jones to Elon Musk, far-right figures from around the world have locked onto and amplified the grievances of local anti-immigration protesters.

Got told by a male friend that a woman he’s talking on Hinge randomly shared my language test story with ABC’s Days Like These to him, saying she thinks that’s a good example of journalism 😱😭 Now where am I gonna find guys on Hinge that also say they like my works 🙃

Curious to know what’s the progress of ABC racism review update now that the organisation’s bonner committee - which they claim to be responsible for overseeing the implementation of recommendations - has its chair left too. @osmanfaruqi.bsky.social any chance you can dig up for Lamestream? 👀👀

I’m on Seven and Nine too! It’s funny - because I never ever expect I will appear on TV, at least that won’t happen in Australia. Maybe this could be my new way to give TV crosses lol

I’m on Ten……

Got a text: “Wing is that you?” Me: Yes…………

My on-and-off Japanese learning is finally paid back: today I accurately cut an audio in Japanese by myself

Now, two weeks after this was aired, the AFP reveals a Chinese national has been charged with foreign interference for alleging collecting intelligence about a Buddhist organisation in Canberra… Another example that we always go ahead of news, and why you should listen to it:

China’s Guanxi in Australian workplaces, and that one-million-dollar question: are work friends real friends? Check out the full episode on Chinese-ish: www.sbs.com.au/audio/podcas...

Just one week after @thelittleredpod’s latest episode, China’s top monk & master of Shaolin Temple is now reported to be under investigation for corruption and infidelity. AND we also talked out his previous scandals in the show: omny.fm/shows/the-li...
