One thing that keeps striking me as really odd is the way the USA and China both went basically nuts at pretty much the same time:
What I don't get is the degree to which China's inwards turn was a response to Trumpian "America First" policies, and how much was probably going to happen anyway.
I mean, 6 or so years ago and I would have been happy to take one of the cheap package holidays Qantas had at that time, split between Shanghai and Beijing.
Now, it's hard to envisage the place becoming sane enough again within the next 6 years so as to make it a promising tourist destination.
