Australia's Prime Minister Kevin Rudd impressed China with his fluent Mandarin, but his complex and jargon-filled English confuses his fellow Australians. Newspapers criticized Rudd for his reliance on diplomatic language and acronyms, with one columnist noting that he sometimes creates his own language. Despite this, Rudd received acclaim for delivering a speech in Mandarin on human rights and Tibet at a Chinese university. Australian newspapers pointed out that Kevin Rudd's communication style in Chinese was very different from his use of English. They highlighted a comment he made about climate change after meeting with the British prime minister as an example of his complex and technical language, which they referred to as "geek talk". The Sydney Morning Herald also noted Rudd's tendency to use acronyms like EWS, RTP, and CCS, suggesting that he still retained his bureaucratic way of speaking despite leaving the government.
