- > You should be safe in Australia since they actually need to be friends with China.
As a non-Australian, I enjoyed very much reading about Australia in a book by Tim Marshall titled "The Power of Geography". I didn't quite realize just how vulnerable they become with China's ambitions and expanse in the South Pacific due to their reliance on vital sea lanes for trade with its Asian partners. After reading that book, I can appreciate your comment much more.
- There is also a book published by Tim Marshall in 2021 The Power of Geography. Highly recommend reading these two positions.
- I read the following "interesting" books this year and what I learnt is that "life is big". Meaning that my mind has been expanded in some intriguing way by reading each of these books. I have also read some thrillers and other rubbish but I observe that you did not request those so I omitted them. You're welcome.
