Thanks for pointing that out. The first part of my question was only rhetorical. I didn't claim that it was the result of my or anyone's professional journalistic endeavours. If that seemed like a "nationalistic flamewar comment", I sincerely apologise.

But the second part of the comment doesn't contain an iota of nationalistic element to it. It simply is a fact as reported by numerous newspapers and felt by many businesses here in Australia. The CCP is punishing Australian businesses as the Australian government is pushing for a proper investigation into a disease that originated in Wuhan and has killed (reportedly) close to a million people so far. In fact It's important to note that it's not a reflection on the people of China, rather the government. I'm happy to be downvoted, probably with nationalist intentions! But I haven't said anything wrong here.
