In contrast, only four percent of representative respondents from the total Australian population thought Australia is more to blame for the tensions.

Survey question:
"Which country is more to blame for the tensions in the Australia–China relationship?"
The survey was conducted among 1,401 citizens, permanent residents, and visa holders (excluding tourist visa holders) in Australia who identified as having Chinese ancestry and had resided in Australia for at least one year.
The survey figures for the Australian population serving as comparison were taken from a different poll with 2,222 participants.
