i understood from a friend recently that a survey was done in 2003/04 election time in sidney and melbourne and the results showed that 60% of the whites want australia to be 100% whites and these whites wanted the asians and all the other non-whites out of the country. this is shocking.Originally posted by fishbuff:nice.
there are quite afew singaporeans that are holding PRs here in Oz and they had expressed that they will not go back to singapore except for holiday or visitation.
there are many hongkongers, malaysians that are doing very well here. even one HKer that i know that has his own biz of installing water tanks, couldnt cope with the overwhelming business demands. so if u are willing to work, u wont starve.
another thing is the children's tertiary education. when u get a pr, u get local rates for the education. my sg friend had to fork out $100,000 for his son's education here. I dont have to worry about coughing out that humongous amount of $$$ for my son's future education. phew!
Surveys can be biased, sampling could be crap and results can be reported in a sensational manner thus skewing a perspective.Originally posted by Daddy!!:i understood from a friend recently that a survey was done in 2003/04 election time in sidney and melbourne and the results showed that 60% of the whites want australia to be 100% whites and these whites wanted the asians and all the other non-whites out of the country. this is shocking.
Actually it is a matter of who the majority is. In Singapore, it is the Chinese. In Australia , it is the caucasians.Originally posted by kramnave:Its just a matter of preference. I won't be surprised its the same for every other country.
Exactly. Self-righteous Aussies would welcome you with open arms but vote against you. Same as Singaporeans. Sometimes its not just about race itself but the perceived threat to personal livelihood. Asians are viewed as recent immigrants and so are the FT that have been coming to Singapore. Same scenario even though both countries are filled with immigrants. Imagine the feelings of the Malays and Aborigines.Originally posted by fymk:Actually it is a matter of who the majority is. In Singapore, it is the Chinese. In Australia , it is the caucasians.
Ask the minority groups in Singapore especially the indian-singaporeans if they encountered some form of racist remarks or behaviours. I am sure that a few would tell you that they get called bangala or mangali.
Go to USA lor. Your choice.Originally posted by Daddy!!:when someone told me australia is racist. i would think, ya ya ya, should not be that bad. till recently a friend of mine told me that a politician called susan used racial sentiments to push for her election, she nearly won! she lost the election not because the voters did not agree with her racial lines, rather it was because of her proposed policies. well, thats what i heard. no smoke without fire u know.
i nearly stepped over to australia, looking for a house. Now i think, USA has less racial problems because of a recent blacks' revolution, something like that. the americans, if racial, are more concerned with the blacks and not the chinese.
LOL. You believe everything your friend say. Ok lor. I know two Singaporeans who were bitter over not getting PR , so they go around saying certain nasty things about Australia being racist by "not giving them PR".Originally posted by Daddy!!:why are aussie whites so like that one ? ? another of my friend said to me "if you wanna go to australia, stay away from the big cities like sydney and melbourne."
i then was thinking to myself, "if i can't go to sydney or melbourne or big cities, what the f.uck am i in australia for? "
You only give me a name Susan ......there are so many susans. Which one? Or was it Beatrice or Mathilda? I also can make up a Florence for you.Originally posted by Daddy!!:until susan wins the elections and start kicking ass.es.

Think you only need to bother about John and Kevin now...no need to bother about susan..Originally posted by Daddy!!:who is this bit.ch susan?
Get her full name and the newspaper link to prove your point. At least Gazelle and Lionnoisy can cut and paste or link up. Don't just use one name and throw it around like some ragdoll.Originally posted by Daddy!!:i will get her full name and give it to you right here.

Otherwise just shut up. I can give you a name of a racist politician , Pauline Hanson and guess what? She didn't last long on her seat.
Frankly I don't know. They are hopping abit about the hospitals. Everyone is hoohaaing over hospital, medicare ( as usual) ,climate change and taxcuts.Originally posted by kramnave:Is labor still pressing for 15% super ?
Are you aware that Australia has 8 States and Territories? Are you also aware that it is a federation with 2 tiers of government - State and Federal? Are you also aware that it is a huge continent country with 20 million people?Originally posted by Daddy!!:as i said, i will find out from my kaki and give it to you right here. since u dont even know given the fact u r living there, u will be most concerned to know about it. by then, u would say thank you to me.
