Ties between China and Australia are on the mend.

This comes as Chinese Premier Li Qiang and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese hold candid talks as part of Premier Li’s four-day visit to Australia. Premier Li is the most senior Beijing official to visit the country in seven years. 

During those talks, Prime Minister Albanese had stressed the importance of promoting regional balance while China announced that it would include Australia in its visa waiver programme. China has also offered new pandas to Australia as part of efforts to repair the relationship.

On this episode of Morning Shot, Dr Lim Tai Wei, Adjunct Senior Research Fellow, NUS East Asian Institute shares his insights on the key shifts as the two countries put differences aside and work on a slew of collaborations on the economic front.
