Totally nonsense! There were more than 20 thousand people in Canberra,
Australia. If each one got paid by Chinese government:
$350 * 20,000 = $7,000,000(e.g. 7 million dollars)
That is only Canberra. Now, there are thousands of thousands sup****ters
worldwide. Impossible Chinese government is paying all those people.
