Lets assume there was explosives onboard. Is that really an ethical response from China trying to prevent the aircraft from landing and making it someone elses problem?

I would have thought the abmulance and fire trucks would have been to help any injured passengers in the event of a detonation, not an attempt to block the runway or prevent access.

I know for a fact if a flight bound for Sydney was suspected of having a bomb onboard it is in our Aussie nature to get it down and help everyone survive.
As much as I don't believe in mainland chinese media propaganda I don't think this report is totally accurate. You know how good the media is in getting facts wrong or to sensationalise,
