From what I've seen and read, China has spies planted all around the world. The FBI and CIA believe there are Chinese spies planted in the White House, the Pentagon and even NASA. They steal military and technological secrets. This can explain why they have surged to being the world leader so fast. They have already taken over as the new space race leaders. Allegedly they are racing to develop their military space ability. If they develop it first they rule the world.
yeah well...the Brits and the US can't have that all to themselves, now can they?

I think we know the answer to that one ...... It's a 30km drive each way to our WW, Coles, Aldi ..... Many of the older folk in my town either dont own a car or cant make that drive, so unless they have someone who can do the shopping for them, they are totally stuck.
I haven't checked the pasta, flour, rice aises, will take a look next time I am in there
IGA here keep ordering these items but they are not arriving
Goes to show how we've given up our food sovereignty to major, foreign -owned, retailers.
Back in the day, most ppl could grow their own food, at least.
All Aussie owned retailers,,, except for Aldi (German)
To be fair they might be sticking to established supply schedules to ensure people do not wholesale items and resell privately

But the point is that the Aus government lets foreign interests fleece the Aus consumer...
Like Costco...(American)

costco wasn't even mentioned in your previous post icy, and has nothing to do with coles, woolies, IGA or Aldi
