Reports overnight in Australian media:
- China's Ministry of Education has accused Australian universities of delivering low-quality teaching in courses they deliver jointly with universities in China
- the ministry statement said Australian universities had skimped on investment in programs run in partnership with Chinese universities over the previous 5 years
- there is now a need to guarantee the quality of the teaching

This a red flag that another front on the China-Australia trade war could be opening up and if so is a negative input for the AUD.
