indonesian response to deteriorating situation, page-12

I can't say I really like the veiled threats made by SBY

bit of a childish response from a government leader.

Nevertheless the local media in Indonesia has seized upon

the spying issue and now Abbott and all Australians are

the focus for their spite. Hardly rational but we are

dealing with a different culture.

Abbott is in the unenviable position of being in charge

when This "caught out" situation has arisen.

Hope he realises the gravity of the situation and fix it

quickly same as Obama did with Merkel.

Will be the first big test for Abbott.... hope his ego

doesn't get in the way. He is dealing with a different

culture.
