Bob Carr defends speech to China forum
BEN PACKHAM - DECEMBER 23, 2021
Former foreign minister Bob Carr has defended his decision to speak at a seminar organised by Chinese-Australian billionaire Chau Chak Wing that was attended by Xi Jinping.
Dr Chau, who was named in parliament as a Chinese Communist Party influencer and conspirator in a UN bribery scandal, hosted his Imperial Springs Forum in Guangzhou this month.
Mr Carr, who employed Dr Chau's daughter Winky when he was NSW premier, joined other participants including former UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon, former British prime minister Gordon Brown, former New Zealand prime minister Jenny Shipley, and former US president George HW Bush's son, Neil Bush.
"I was honoured to have been in such company," he said.
Mr Carr - a vocal critic of the Morrison government's China policies - said he spoke briefly, and virtually, on the global challenge posed by climate change.
"I praised China for decarbonising its Belt and Road Initiative, and bringing forward its peaking of coal," he said.
The theme of the summit was Multilateralism 2.0: Global Co-operation in the Post-Pandemic Era. Mr Carr said he focused on the joint Chinese-American statement on climate co-operation at the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow in November.
"I honed in on what that agreement said about the collaboration ?between the two on measuring methane in the atmosphere," the former Labor premier said.
"I said this was one example of international co-operation under the architecture of a global agreement. It embodies the idea of co-operation between the US and China, and has bilateral and multilateral implications."
Dr Chau was identified by the now-Assistant Defence Minister Andrew Hastie under parliamentary privilege in 2018 as the head of a business group that was "essentially a creature of the Chinese Communist Party's United Front program", which runs the CCP's overseas influence operations.
Mr Hastie told parliament at the time that Dr Chau - a prominent political donor and philanthropist - was a co-conspirator known as "CC-3" in a bribery scandal that rocked the UN in 2015. The case hinged on $1.7m in bribes paid to former UN General Assembly president John Ashe by Chinese businessmen.
"We know that CC-3 was willing to participate in the bribery of the 68th United Nations president of the General Assembly in 2013," Mr Hastie said. "We also know that ... CC-3 was in close contact with the United Front, the influence arm of the Chinese Communist Party in 2007.
"During discussions with US authorities, I confirmed the long-suspected identity of CC-3. It is now my duty to inform the house and the Australian people that CC-3 is Dr Chau Chak Wing."
Dr Chau has denied the allegations. He successfully sued the ABC, receiving a $590,000 payout earlier this year, after a judge found "substantial" injury to his reputation from a report which carried imputations he was a CCP member, that he paid large sums to secure influence, and that he paid a $200,000 bribe to the president of the UN General Assembly.
He also won a $280,000 defamation case against The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age over a 2015 article by journalist John Garnaut that suggested Mr Chau had bribed a UN official and could be extradited to the US if he returned from China to Australia.
Mr Carr has been a leading advocate for closer Australian engagement with China, particularly after his appointment as head of the Australia China Relations Institute at the University of Technology in Sydney in 2014. He has since stepped down from the role.
