Chinese Australians experiencing less abuse but still face discrimination, according to Lowy report
A new poll has found that the number of Chinese Australians facing racist abuse or physical violence has decreased over the past three years, although more than one in three continue to say they face discrimination.
Key points:
Twenty-one per cent of respondents said they were called offensive names in 2022
The poll found Anthony Albanese enjoys strong support in the Chinese Australian community
The majority of respondents thought it unlikely China would pose a military threat to Australia
The Lowy Institute's third Being Chinese in Australia survey has found that 21 per cent of Chinese-Australians said they were called offensive names because of their heritage in 2022 – down four points from 2021, and 10 points from 2020.
The number of Chinese Australians reporting being physically threatened and attacked has also dropped slightly – from 18 per cent in both 2020 and 2021, to 14 per cent in 2022.
It is not clear exactly what is driving the decrease, but the bilateral relationship between Australia and China has gradually improved since Labor won power in last year's federal election.
Many Chinese Australians also blamed the outbreak of racism and violence towards the community in 2020 on the distrust generated by the outbreak of COVID-19 in China.
Those tensions may have eased as the pandemic enters its fourth year and memories of lockdowns and other emergency health measures fade.
The Lowy Institute survey also maps Chinese Australian attitudes to political leaders in Australia and across the globe, as well as community attitudes to media, disinformation and major geopolitical events.
The poll finds that Anthony Albanese enjoys strong support in the Chinese Australian community, with six in 10 of those surveyed having either "a lot" or "some" confidence in the prime minister.
That puts him ahead of all the other leaders the Lowy Institute asked about, including former New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern at 49 per cent and Chinese President Xi Jinping at 42 per cent.
But Chinese Australians remain far more trusting of Xi Jinping than most other Australians: only 11 per cent of the broader Australian community expressed any faith in the Chinese president in the most recent survey.
Similarly, more than six in 10 Chinese Australians expressed a level of trust in China in this poll, compared to just 12 per cent of the Australian population.
