Australia needs to be totally self-sufficient in energy production as soon as possible. Oil is our biggest problem and we need to find alternative energy sources very quickly. Make no mistake: China will neutralise Australia as soon as they think they need to. Cutting off our oil is a very quick and easy way to fuck us. Oil tankers move slowly and Chinese aircraft are much faster. -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. www.avast.com
