Original English title of the letter: "Open Letter to Personalities of Various Circles". Original Chinese title of the letter: "致澳大利亚政府的公开信".
An open letter addressed to the Australian Government by a group of mature-age (35 years or older) Chinese students seeking tertiary education in Australia. These students were impacted by a sudden change in visa policy in 1989, resulting in the halting of their application process despite having already submitted funds and relevant paperwork. Parallel text in English and Chinese.
