China, Xi Jinping messaging out of step with experience of diaspora

The PRC government often publicly criticises Western countries including Australia and United States for anti-Chinese racism. At the same time, it has ignored, at least in public, anti-Chinese policies and incidents in some other countries. This has led to scepticism among some Chinese diaspora when the PRC claims to speak for them or protect their interests. The narrative that the PRC would always protect the interests of Chinese diaspora may be more successful domestically than internationally.
