Chinese state media said that nuclear intercontinental ballistic missiles, conventional cruise missiles, and an array of medium and short range missiles would be put on public display for the first time.

“These missiles are domestically designed and manufactured and have never been officially reported before,” said a source from the Second Artillery Force. He added that the missiles were “second generation” and were all battle-ready

He added that China was currently developing a third generation of missiles and was catching up with the United States and Russia in terms of its technology…………China is likely to be asked by the United States and Australia to join them in joint military exercises,

South Australia and China move forward together

China Australia Business 4 Sept 09

“………..South Australia’s bond with China has strengthened over recent decades,………… By far the largest South Australian exports to China are resources, and it is this sector that looms large in South Australia’s overall economic growth, and our future relationship with China.

South Australia’s mineral resources are making a significant contribution to China’s economic development, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Chinese companies are already undertaking joint mining and exploration ventures here in South Australia.

………..One of the key platforms for the ongoing growth of the relationship between South Australia and China is uranium. A change in national policy that now permits the development of new uranium mines gives South Australia world-leading status in uranium potential, and a capacity and willingness to work with China as it expands its nuclear energy program.
