Australia sending big delegation

Canberra 'must choose between economic interests, toeing US line'

Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, who is leading a 1,000-company delegation to China to tap the country's biggest export market, should be careful and considerate about Canberra's stance on the South China Sea, observers said.

Beijing announced on Tuesday that Turnbull will visit China on Thursday and Friday and attend the annual China-Australia prime ministers' meeting.
