HONG KONG: -- If your favourite karaoke song is a bit too long, now you can try the abridged version.

In a bid to capture the lucrative Chinese tourist dollar, Australia’s BridgeClimb – the company that organises climbs to the summit of the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge – has a new attraction that will have visitors hitting the high notes at 134 metres above the harbour.

Dubbed the “Karaoke Climb”, Putonghua-speaking tourists who brave the vertigo-inducing ascent can celebrate at the top by belting out one of five popular Putonghua songs.

The climb is to celebrate Lunar New Year, which falls on February 19, and will only be available for 12 days from February 16 to 28.

Australian government has agreed to triple the frequency of flights between China and Australia. Obviously realising the huge potential to bring on valuable tourism revenue.

Australia is full of them anyway.

The extra flights are the families jumping the que once one gets the passport. The planes might come full but will fly back empty.

"All together now....

"Tie me Kangaroo down mate

"Tie me Kangaroo down

"I don't want to jump off mate

"So tie me Kangaroo down"

[apologies to the pedophile now in London... but the Chinese won't care that he bonked his daughter's girlfriend, mate, so Tie me Kangaroo down]

The climb is to celebrate Lunar New Year, which falls on February 19...

May not be the only thing that falls during the bridge climb...

Give it some time, and the way the Chinese buy up everything in Australia, and one day the Aussies

will have to ask the Chinese for permissions to do anything in Australia......

It's well underway, well under way.

There have been a lot of incidents now where Chinese tourists have shoved Aussies in ques etc. Or spat at peoples feet. They end up kissing the pavement.
