Former Australia-China Council chairman Warwick Smith has expressed support for the federal government’s move to impose COVID-19 testing requirements on travellers from China. Smith does not expect it to have any impact on the ability of Australian companies to do business in China, amid signs of improving relations between the two nations. He adds that other countries are adopting similar measures. Meanwhile, the Opposition has questioned the government’s decision to ignore the advice of Chief Medical Officer Paul Kelly, who does not believe that the new testing requirements are necessary.
