A speech by the Chinese ambassador to Australia has been spectacularly disrupted by protestors objecting to his country's occupation of Tibet.
In a trainwreck speech to the Australia-China Relations Institute at the University of Technology in Sydney, Xiao Qian found his opening remarks derailed four times after protestors stood up holding pieces of paper protesting China's role in Tibet.
The first protestor, a well-dressed middle-aged man, was silent and bowed to the crowd as he was shuffled to the exit by security.
But two more female protestors yelled loudly as they drew attention to China's 'oppression' of Tibetans while many in attendance approached them taking photos and video on their phones.
