I also have an Aussie friend living in Dumaguete and he told me many stories about the problems in Australia with the Aboriginal Australians, drugs, child abuse, trafficking, crime ect it's far worse than in the UK, I have seen a few programs in recent years on TV about these issues and they were real eye openers also. When we watch programs like 'Wanted down under' all is not what it seems.
