Former Prime Minister Paul Keating has criticized Foreign Minister Penny Wong and the chief of ASIO, Mike Burgess, in relation to Australia's stance on China. Keating accused Wong of provoking China and referred to Burgess as running "a goon show." Keating also expressed his belief that Australia's policy is at odds with the strategic interests of ASEAN. He suggested that the current government should dismiss Burgess, Andrew Shearer, and Mike Pezzullo, as they allegedly display contempt for the Prime Minister's efforts to improve relations with China.
