As soon as China’s controversial opera “Lake Honghu” arrived in Australia, it met with protesters from the local Chinese-Australian community who are concerned about the “silent invasion” of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP’s) ideology in Australia.
Protest banners and boards calling on Australians to boycott “Lake Honghu” were on full display outside the iconic Opera House in Sydney on Nov. 4 as well as outside the Melbourne Recital Centre on Nov. 7. The two arts precincts were the selected venues for the performance of the revolutionary red opera.
