As reported by the ABC:
Haha Liu's " Australian Emergency Assistance Association Incorporated (AEAAI), acts as a middleman in police incidents and legal cases involving Chinese speakers.
The association has promoted itself as a grassroots community platform to its more than 55,000 members from the Chinese diaspora in Australia on the Chinese social media platform WeChat.
It has more than 1,000 volunteers who promise to race to the scene of incidents across Australia in a matter of minutes.
According to confidential documents obtained by the ABC, the AEAAI was promised funding from the consulate and agreed to report back on criminal incidents, emergencies, accidents and "security risks" involving Chinese citizens deemed to require consular assistance.
The AEAAI was promoted publicly by Gladys Liu (no relation), who has close links to Mr Liu.
Ms Liu helped the 52-year-old develop a relationship with Victoria Police and, by Haha Liu's account, translated for him at events with MPs and business leaders.
Quite apart from the obvious task of providing the Chinese Consulate with Human Intelligence (HUMINT) these types of networks can be activated to assist automated command, control and attack networks that the Chinese Government is developing for warfare against Australia and other targets. These networks need to be disbanded immediately, and their leaders interrogated.

Chinese UUVs near Australia suggest presence of a Chinese Human Intel network in Australia: Law firm Corrs did say that Darwin Port will provide Chinese naval vessels access to Australia, the Indian Ocean and the South Pacific, Indonesia and PNG
by Ganesh Sahathevan
The ABC and others have reported that Chinese Underwater Unmanned Vehicles (UUVs) have been discovered near Australia. As reported, the UUVs gather intelligence which can be used against Australian merchant and defence maritime assets.
As with any form of remotely sensed data ground truthing, or verification by human agents on or near site is essential. There is nothing to suggest that China has developed technology that does not require ground truthing.
The presence of the UUVs near Australia suggests therefore a vast network of Chinese human intelligence (HUMINT) agents on and near the Australian mainland. For this reason alone the management of Darwin Port must be scrutinised as a matter of urgency.
Readers will recall that law firm Corrs said on its website:
The recent Darwin Port deal will provide Chinese shipping and naval vessels with facilitated access to Australia, the Indian Ocean and the South Pacific, as well as to Indonesia and PNG over the coming century.

Corrs CEO John W.H. Denton has made himself ,and Corrs a matter of national security ;it is in the national interest that Corrs China deals be open to public scrutiny
Anyone, let alone a major law firm and a very senior lawyer, who says these things and buttresses it with photos of the type above, invites public scrutiny.
In fact, statements of this type, proudly published on the Corrs website, invite not only Australian public scrutiny, but attention from intelligence agencies of all affected countries:
In a recent visit to Xinjiang in China's far west, the Corrs China Business Group met with numerous officials who enthusiastically shared their role in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).This initiative (one of a number of initiatives encompassed by OBOR) is intended to promote connectivity across Pakistan with a network of highways, railways and pipelines accompanied by energy, industrial and other infrastructure development projects to address critical energy shortages needed to boost Pakistan’s economic growth. Eventually, CPEC will also facilitate trade along an overland route that connects China to the Indian Ocean, linking the Chinese city of Kashgar to the Pakistani port of Gwadar.
In a world that is increasingly interconnected and as a trading nation, Australia has a significant role to play in the policy thinking on global maritime economic issues. Australia is working with Chinese officials as they develop the country’s maritime economy strategy. As a maritime trading nation, these strategic issues of vital importance to us, including their political dimensions. Attracting capital to Northern Australia as part of OBOR will be a key focus. Darwin is intended to be a crucial link in China's new 21st Century Maritime Silk Road. The recent Darwin Port deal will provide Chinese shipping and naval vessels with facilitated access to Australia, the Indian Ocean and the South Pacific, as well as to Indonesia and PNG over the coming century.
