A Melbourne-based Asian community leader, and former Victorian political candidate, has quit the Liberal Party after being the first person officially charged under Australia’s foreign interference laws.

Di Sanh Duong, 65, also known as Sunny Duong, was charged last week with allegedly “preparing for a foreign interference offence” under the 2018 National Security Legislation Amendment (Espionage and Foreign Interference) Act.
