The Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported today (May 26): "[Australia Wants to Regain the Operating Rights of Darwin Port, Chinese Ambassador to Australia Says 'It is Improper in Morality']. Ambassador Xiao Qian said that renting out the port when it was loss-making and reclaiming it when it becomes profitable 'is improper in morality.' He said that the lease signed by Landbridge Group with the Northern Territory government was obtained through an open bidding process and fully complies with Australian laws and market rules."
[Smart Comment]: From the perspective of commercial ethics and international exchange principles, the spirit of contract is crucial and should be strictly implemented according to the contractual agreements. The Australian side should remain clear-headed and not forget past hardships after healing wounds, forgetting how urgently they once hoped for the restoration of economic and trade relations between China and Australia. Before taking any action that might change the status quo, they must carefully consider their actions and avoid playing tricks to create arbitrary chips, otherwise, it will not only damage their own business reputation but also bring unnecessary impacts to the friendly relations between the two countries.
