Australia's Prime Minister Kevin Rudd impressed China with his fluent Mandarin, but his complex, jargon-filled English language often confuses his fellow Australians. Australian newspapers criticized Rudd for being overly focused on policy and using too much diplomatic language and acronyms. The Sunday Age newspaper columnist Tom Hyland said that Rudd sometimes creates his own language and does not speak proper English. Despite this, Rudd received praise for delivering a speech in perfect Mandarin at a prestigious Chinese university, where he addressed human rights and Tibet. Australian newspapers reported that Prime Minister Rudd's message in Beijing was very different from his usual use of English. They highlighted a comment he made about climate change after a meeting with Britain's prime minister as an example of his complex language, which they referred to as "geek talk". Journalists were confused by Rudd's statement about the need for greater synergy between policy leadership and quickly delivering outcomes. The Sydney Morning Herald commented on Rudd's frequent use of acronyms like EWS, RTP, and CCS, suggesting that he still had a bureaucratic way of speaking despite leaving that world behind.
