#1 If he is the one who has said China has 1000 spies in Australia, and he is willing to name names, they should insure that not only does he get asylum, but that he breaks wind through silk.

#4 While I find it suspicious he was active in the Tiamin Square protests and then got a government job, I think he is probably the real thing. I very much doubt the Howard government will hand him over to the Chinese, even though Australia is trying to build friendly relations with them. BTW, its a holiday weekend here, so very little will happen before Tuesday.
