The Australia China Charitable Foundation, led by casino high roller Xie Xiongming, has been stripped of its charity status by the Australian Charities and Not-For-Profits Commission (ACNC) for failing to disclose financial information. A new photograph shows Xie standing beside Opposition Leader Peter Dutton at a Liberal campaign event, raising questions about the foundation's activities and connections.
A foundation led by a casino high roller linked to the Chinese Communist Party has been sanctioned by the national charity regulator for failing to meet financial standards, as a new photo emerged showing its chairman with Opposition Leader Peter Dutton.
One day after Dutton’s office said he did not know Xie, a new photograph emerged showing the two men standing next to each other at a private gathering last Sunday to support the Liberal campaign to win the northern Sydney seat of Bennelong at the coming federal election. In an unrelated civil case in 2020, a court heard that Xie had received a $1.5 million loan from a notorious casino junket operator and Chinese Communist Party influence agent Tom “Chinatown” Zhou, who has been jailed in China over corruption offences. Xie was almost stabbed to death in 2016 as part of a suspected triad Asian crime gang hit.
Xie chairs the Australia China Charitable Foundation, which is run from his home in Galston in the northern suburbs of Sydney and was registered as a charity in 2017 because it claimed it would address social welfare including Indigenous disadvantage.
