That isn't Chinese propaganda. It's implying people are "fleeing" Australian currency holdings because Australia's ties to China are too strong. The implication is that China had excessive influence over the current Australian government, causing people to switch away from holding AUD to other currencies/assets. It's "red scare" propaganda designed to capitalise on distrust of China.
