An Asian-Australian candidate for One Nation in Western Australia insists the party is not racist but, rather, is all about giving people a fair opportunity. Pauline Hanson's party has faced heavy criticism over its position on immigration and its targeting of cultural practices by some immigrants from Muslim countries. As well, Senator Hanson's maiden speech more than 20 years ago criticised both Asian migration and Aboriginal welfare payments. But Tshung Chang sees the party differently.
