Annoying Australia

Annoying Australia

Australia again! That white-skinned country to the south of
Indonesia behaves like a brat. This time, Australia is annoying
us just because President Megawati has made a little change in
her stance regarding the U.S. attack on Afghanistan.

Megawati said she could not accept a country's attack on
another for whatever reason. Even without mentioning the country,
we know that she was referring to the U.S.

Howard is different from his predecessor, Paul Keating. Howard
is a childish politician who does not know neighborhood ethics,
and is slightly racist.

Since he became prime minister of Australia, he has often
"sold" Indonesia's issues for the sake of domestic interests.
This time, he is using it for the sake of the November election,
recognizing that he needs good material to beat his rival.

We should not respond emotionally to the irritating voice of
the country, once the home of criminals from Britain.
