Australia-China relationship ‘really critical’ for economy

Hawker Britton Managing Director Simon Banks says Australia’s relationship with China is “really critical” for the economy. Chinese Premier Li Qiang has reached Canberra as he continues his tour of Australia. “This is a complex and difficult relationship, but a really critical one for the Australian economy,” Mr Banks told Sky News Australia. “We should never compromise on our fundamental values when it comes to dealing with China, but we do have really important ties, both commercial and our person-to-person ties between our two countries.”
