The fact is, this property market boom is global and that should make you question why, other than "it's because Chinese and Indians are invading".
Since the thread is specifically about Australia, the fact is that Sydney harbor and coastal towns are among the most expensive real estate in the world. While it's true that a percentage is owned by Asians, these are mostly born and bread in Australia, went to make their fortunes in Hong Kong and came back a couple years before mainland Chinese started taking over Hong Kong, because not all Chinese are communists intent on ruling your world.
But the vast majority of property owners in Sydney's wealthy neighborhoods are anglo Australian who made their fortunes in the 2 dozen or so conglomerates that control the country's economy, from banking, distribution, media, mining, etc. and who somehow believe that Australia is an extension of the (white) UK, with no knowledge that Chinese have been in Australia since the mid 1800s and many are as oyoy as any Ozzie bloke.
Furthermore, Australia also has Japanese and Korean communities that are as distant from Chinese as Mediterranean countries are from Scandinavians. But that's too much to consider for the racists.
For those of you who think non white migrations to your countries should be ended, remember that whites migrated to the Americas, Australia/NZ/SA and colonized half the world before retreating. You arbitrarily decide that migration controls should start under your watch and can't even recognize that migration and the migrants' drive is what made America the world's most powerful country in the world.
If China is so proud of creating this "property boom" in cities around the world, WHY does it itself ban foreigners from buying properties in China? Why not let foreigners create the same "property boom" as well in China? You still haven't answered this question.
I have asked this question FIVE times already in this thread and not once you have provided an answer. You skirt around this issue and proclaim this accuse that but you do not dare to provide an answer to this question. WHY is that? And you even accuse other countries of racism
I know, i know, you and a few others in here believe everyone should just stay in their country of origin, because cultural purity is best. I'm just not going to argue this idiocy anymore.
So what's this behaviour of China excluding foreigners from buying properties in China? That's not racism? That's not exercising racial purity by keeping China's properties "pure" from being owned by non-Chinese?
