Australians: Trade Pitch and Jobs

australians: The Prime Minister desperately needs to start looking like a man with a plan that can improve the lot of ordinary Australians and he must be hoping for a reboot here, according to Australian Broadcasting Corporation. His free trade pitch will be aimed at convincing a domestic audience that that is where his jobs of the future lie. Malcolm Turnbull will no doubt be relieved to leave behind the antics of a Parliament he commands by a single seat, and a backbench hell bent on self-harm. It will be a hard sell, given the growing belief in the electorate that more jobs are exported than made by such deals. Behind the scenes it is his diplomatic skills that will be sorely tested as he confronts Beijing over its new Great Wall, the one it is raising in sand in the South China Sea in defiance of international protests. Winning that argument at home will require political skills abroad that, to date, have not been evident. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
