............. refreshing to see an American president hitting a useless international bureaucracy in the wallet. That never would have happened under globalist suck-up Obama.
Why should the American taxpayer contribute nearly $500 million toward a public relations agency for China?
........... the Paris climate had the same problem: Requiring the U.S. to cut carbon emissions 28 percent while giving China a free pass for 15 years.
.......... WHO could have saved hundreds of thousands of lives if Director-General Tedros Adhanom had simply cared ..............
Australian taxpayers have donated vastly more money to the World Health Organisation (WHO) than China according to financial documents - even though WHO appears to be in the Communist nation's pocket.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison is under pressure from his own MPs to slash funding to the UN agency after US President Donald Trump announced he would stop funding WHO over its bungled coronavirus response.
Federal Cabinet ministers on Wednesday were shocked that, in a further sign of submission, WHO signed off on China re-opening its 'wet markets' where COVID-19 is believed to have first transmitted from bats to humans.
The size of Australia's voluntary donations to the UN agency, compared with the rest of the world's, are laid bare in WHO financial documents.
The paperwork outlines how each country makes voluntary contributions to the health agency, on top of compulsory fees.
The latest figures show Australia's voluntary contributions to the WHO in 2018 were more than five times the size of China's.
Australia, population nearly 25 million, paid the UN agency AUD$54.5 million in 2018 - the eight biggest voluntary contribution of 71 member countries.
China, the world's most populous country and home to almost 1.4 billion people, paid a pitiful $9.83million in voluntary donations.
Other rich countries such as France, population 66 million, coughed up $14million in donations and Canada, home to 37.5 million people, paid $41.8million, the documents show.
The United States and the United Kingdom chipped in the biggest voluntary donations with the US paying $AUD436.8million and the UK $318.7million.
Treasurer Josh Frydenberg said: 'It's extraordinary that the World Health Organisation sees it fit for these wet markets to continue in China. They shouldn't.
'They've been the source of outbreaks that have killed people around the world.'
A chart of who pays what is in the link. China is let off for 15 years with their carbon emissions while the rest of the world pays, especially the US and their contributions to WHO are paltry even though they are the main hazard to the planet.
All hail China? It's time they were put back in their box. PPPFFFTTT!!
Tedros has been exposed as China's shill....he should resign....but wont....he's a fuckwit.....
Well, if he wants to make up the sudden hole in WHO's budget, he can go begging to the Chinese communists.
It would hardly be the first time.
Kudos to Trump and Morrison for calling B.S. on WHO and its servile leader.
I suppose you believe that WHO should just do the bidding of el Presidente' Trump and march into Beijing and tell the Chinese when to jump, I take it.
You really need to learn a lot about how the world really operates, 4E. You, and Morrison and Trump are acting like children who got some bad news. WHO acts on the information it receives from it's member states. It doesn't have independent intelligence gathering teams who spy on member states. Forgotten how Trump downplayed and ignored the COVID-19 virus until it was shoved into his face by the "fake news" outlets? Tsk, tsk. Such a shame that he was caught lying, yet again.
Oh, and when have you lived downunder again? Never? Yet you're telling us how to live our lives here. Scotty from Marketing is another waste of space Tory. Yes, he did win the last election but since then, well, he's pretty well fucked the country right and proper. He ran off to Hawaii in the middle of a national emergency and stayed there, despite promising to return "as fast as he could". Oh, dearie, dearie, me, hey, Black Orchid? He couldn't get his act together over COVID-19 either. Tsk, tsk. At least he was democratically election though, hey? Unlike el Presidente' Trump.
