This "scare mongering" is just one of those things which journos do.... 30yrs ago it was the USSR our "enemy".... then more recently Indonesia, then boat people, now its China!
Fact of the matter is, China has over 100million soldiers.
It does NOT have a large Naval fleet
It does NOT have long range bombers
It does not have many inflight refuelers
It has no means of shifting a large Army across an ocean
Indonesia is the same....
I have to laugh at the quote from the Naval Officer in the 60minute promo....
"We are training for a conflict"
Umm... thats what defence does... train to fight... even in peace time!
OMG news flash...
