Australia will demolish Chinese -made cameras in the National War Memorial in Canberra to avoid cameras from spy activities.
According to the Canberra Times, Bitzi, the chairman of the new memorial hall, confirmed the decision."This is not because we have received any bad notifications, but because we are very cautious."
The 11 cameras will be removed from the War Memorial Hall before the middle of this year.
According to reports, these cameras come from one of the world's largest camera suppliers and Chinese technology companies Hikvision.Hikvision is a monitoring device supplier located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Its main controller is the China Enterprise Electronic Technology Group.
The U.S. government has accused Hiscomova in May last year that Hikvision was suspected of providing monitoring equipment to the Chinese government to assist in the 1 million -dimensional uter who detained in Xinjiang Reinstallation Camp and plans to increase sanctions on it.
Bitzley said in an interview: "It's not just in the field of camera ... You must be very careful about all electronic products now."
A spokesman at the War Memorial Hall pointed out that the institution seriously treats its own security obligations, but does not comment on specific security issues.
Australia announced in August 2018 that China Telecom companies Huawei and ZTE provided equipment for 5G mobile networks. They were subsequently condemned by Beijing and economic sanctions, and China -Australia relations fell into a trough.
