Hi Rabbs,
Points from memory.
*Australia is not part of Asia. *Australia has earned Asian respect for not slumping during the Asian meltdown. *China is a long term security threat to Australia. *Australia needs to populate to be more secure - 50m - and suggests large metropolis located in the North -eg. Darwin *Australia also needs USA for security reasons *USA has great respect for the way Australia has handled the Bali situation *Bush rings Howard often *Australia is not subserviant to the USA
