The arrogance of western powers
‘US sees DPRK as security threat in Northeast Asia
WASHINGTON - The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) poses one of the most critical US security challenges in Northeast Asia as it is pursuing nuclear capabilities and developing long-range ballistic missiles, the Pentagon said Thursday….
Australia's role is to keep peace in region
CANBERRA - Australia's 2013 Defence White Paper underlines the country's role in keeping peace in the Indo-Pacific region, Prime Minister Julia Gillard said at a press conference of launching the white paper on Friday….’
The above two extracts are exemplary examples of the arrogance of the Americans and the Australians to dictate to the world. In the first article, the Americans simply declared that the DPRK is a security threat when the North Koreans are just trying to develop long range missiles for their own defence. And the USA is across the Pacific Ocean and could turn North Korean into the Stone Age! The Americans already possess enough long range missiles and nuclear warheads to hit anything in North Korea and always threatening to strike North Korea and conducting war games at the borders of North Korea. Should not it be the other way, that the North Koreans see the USA as a clear immediate and present danger, a security threat?
The North Koreans cannot hit the USA but the USA can hit the North Koreans any time it wanted to. So, who is a threat to who?
In the case of the Australians, they simply declared that they are the policemen in the region, to keep peace. Who they think they are? Did they ask Indonesia or the Asean countries for permission to do that? They are here to keep peace in the region? Are the Asean states little war mongering countries and needing the Australians to keep peace, to clobber anyone of them if they disturb peace?
Should the Asean countries pay tribute to this master of the region, a regional empire? Why could not the Indonesians, being the biggest country in the region, be the respected leader to keep peace in the region, or Asean as a collective unit, to keep peace? Why a small country of 20 odd millions thinks that it is its right to rule over a region of so many countries whose combined population is well over 300m?
Are the Australians crazy or what? Do they have any respect to the countries in the region? Are they the new colonial master of Southeast Asia?

Very true and fair comment again, now with the evil state battle shop berth in changi, i fear we are inviting the enemies of the evil state here.
Australians to act as peace masters in this region???
You must be kidding??
Most of their troops with pot bellied belly nearly reached the floor.
Have they really tested in battles??
Tried that with the PRCs and the North Koreans.
Within three days, all the kangaroos slaughtered.
They aee only trained to fight bush fires
For the descendents of convicts now trying to act as Policemen in this region, it must be the power bestored by the Dark Side.
Did all the countries in Asia agree or are the Australians just over-rating their influence. After all, not all the Asian countries are even respectful of the Evil Empire.
Ooooh it's the thick skinned Raymond. Got scolded and fucked by so many bloggers here and still dare to show face here.
Really pah si buay chao. Either mad, idiot or being paid to let people scold.
What are you Raymond?
How much, Raymond?
What is wrong with being a communist sympathizer? That is many times more respectable than being a lap dog barking at the master's command. Many PAP ministers and business leaders from Singapore were at one time pawing furiously at the Communist leaders in China.
Until they drop a nuclear bomb, no one is serious, they are just joking and playing games and hoping to earn a few billions on the way. Oz is just trying to get some commissions from Uncle Sam since Uncle Sam will have to buy some stuff from Ox if they are going to deliver a few F35 to those dumb buyers.
They big one want? Raymond Tio Bo?
The Indonesians are quite sensitive in fact very buay song about US military presence in Australia.
China also wary.
Indonesian president just told his generals his country should strive to have a more powerful military than Australia, Malaysia and Spore.
Australia is big, got nice weather, called itself the deputy sheriff, robust economy though quite reliance on minerals exports to emerging country like China.
Maybe 100 years from now through gradual immigration and as a melting pot, with a population of 200 millions would be the next USA.
Angmokwee just trying to frighten everyone lah.There is a reason behind.
Pokhan and Namhan would have united long ago if not because of their kacheowlation.
And uncleBean,ignore those angmo,geh angmo or those who worship angmo like their father who are ignorant but trying to catch attention.
Dun waste time over those angmokwee.
The Rude Govt pronounced China as a belligerent rising power to align itself with the American propaganda. Oops, I mean the Rudd govt.
Now Julia Gillard is saying her Govt recognises China as a rising power with legitimate interest commensurates with its growing economic and military power. It is just a normal progression, nothing to be alarmed.
It must be music to the Chinese ears when she spoke in her nice Australian accent 'We welcome China's rise .
We seek to have a constructive and co-operative relationship with China. We also recognise that China's rise and military organisation is pivotal to our region '
BUT in a delicate balancing act she also said: -
Ms Gillard said the white paper ''reaffirms the central and enduring importance of our alliance relationship with the United States''.
But the Spore not so good state media cna was quick to add that Gillard govt could be defeated easily in the coming elections and things would return to like before.
I encourage people to tekan the Australian government with regard to their self-proclaimed role of "regional policeman".
As an Australian taxpayer, I'm fed up with these cunts in Canberra -- spending bib bucks on weapons...not for defence but for "police" matters.
Although Gillard will be unceremoniously tossed out in the coming Sept election, it is clear that regional meddling is the current order of the day in Canberra's political business agenda.
I encourage people to boycott Aussie goods and services and to not spend money visiting the place if Australia is going to continue on the path -- side by side with their "bosses" from the USA acting as "village cop" in the Asian region.
Fuck them. And fuck ALL your Asian governments for sanctioning their presence on your doorstep.
In fact, fuck ALL THE GOVERNMENTS of the world!
The Empire conducted air strikes into Syria. The order came from the Tabernacle. Obama still fumbling and thinking that he could decide to or not to strike.
And the Russians kept mum which means they are capitulating and America is emboldened and GIs are likely to be in Syria sson. Some are already there as mercenaries.
About A$24.2B about 1.56 % of GDP is now spent on defence for the huge country. Her GDP is
US$1.57 trillions.
Compare that with what tiny SG spent on defence.
To increase to 2% of GDP in defence spending the Áustralia must sell more to emering to countries esp in asia .
The world is watching US decision closely whether to attack or not to attack Syria.
Economy of Australia:
Chinese investment
There is substantial export to China of iron ore, wool, and other raw materials and over 120,000 Chinese students study in Australian schools and universities.
China is the largest purchaser of Australian debt. In 2009, offers were made by state-owned Chinese companies to invest 22 billion dollars in Australia's resource extraction industry

Economics is the key here
Walau, need the Liberation Army of PRC meh?
Ozzies got to pray that Australia will never goes to war with Indonesia for the latter will take over the Continent within a year.
Not joking hoh.
Australia got enuff soldiers in their armies?
It got to depend on its' allies and frens to survive any war and to protect itself. By itself, Australia is indeed no match for Indonesia in a war.
Like Singapore, Australia has to depend on others for survival, both cannot help it
The rise of Indonesia could be a game changer in Asean. With its huge economy its defence spending sure can match that of Australia in no time.
The Australians are cautious afterall neighbours always can't get along.
Indonesian GDP to hit US$1.006 trillion in 2013 according IMF estimates. Their President did a very good job running such big and populous nation turning the country economy around in just 2 terms.

Australia is suffering from the same problem all successful cuntrees have when they've had a good economic run: the government becomes arrogant and behave like arseholes -- on the domestic front and with foreign affairs.
I am Australian taxpayer and I HATE the government I pay for, and how they waste money.
But that's the price I have to pay for wanting to live there. If I weigh the pros and cons, I don't mind paying the high taxes and tahaning the absurd over-regulation of everything. The cuntry itself it fucking awesome.
Plus I can legally own guns :-)

*"India shares a land border with China, and Japan has had maritime contacts (with China), but for the past 1,500 years and more there has never been a history when our relations with China went extremely smoothly,* [sic]

The remilitarisation of Japan is their doomsday. They think they are still a power that can knock out China. It is no longer the case. The difference in military might is many times in China's favour.
