APT - can the run last? young kids love it, page-7

APT still in very early days of growth.
It got to this level mostly just on the Australian population - pop 24 mil.
New Zealand was a safe training ground for expansion - pop 4.5 mil.
US is a serious expansion and a big deal (pop 330 mil)
who's next - China? - pop 1,300 mil
Then who?
