So the 'one child policy' is creating problems? Who'd a thunk it. Perhaps mandatory 'same sex marriage' could alleviate the problem?

The excess man-geeks of China's NSA seem to be in the clear regarding Turnbull's embarrassing Census haktivism episode.

Confirming the accuracy of my comment above re the Denial of Service (DoS) attack against the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Census on Tuesday:

our Government is steadily confirming the attack started in Australia-then via US servers-hit the ABS.

Hence no China involvement with the Census, just an Australian public mass action against the Census, due privacy concerns and a response to our growing Surveillance State (SS).

SkyNews reported today (August 12, 2016) http://www.skynews.com.au/news/top-stories/2016/08/12/no-resignations-yet-over-census-debacle.html

“Mr Turnbull told reporters [today] the attacks appeared to have originated in the United States, but the actors were not necessarily American.

'It is not very difficult to route traffic through another country using private networks and virtual techniques,' he said.

...Earlier on Friday Senior Minister Christopher Pyne appeared to confirm the disruption of the census came from within Australia.”

It appears Pyne needs to talk to Turnbull more to get their stories straight.

Not really "Surveillance State".

Sorry guys at ASD and AFP-IT.

You're doing a good job.

It was so easy to predict, but they are doing fine, really. We just don't know the whole truth!

Entirely predictable and the very reason I was arguing over a decade ago for far better ties and trade relations with a more democratic India, which conversely, has a far younger demographic stretching out as far as the eye can see! Moreover, it has a middle class larger than the USA, who want stuff!?

While a caste system coupled to a veritable kaleidoscope of cultures and an I'm all right Jack ethos, has limited/held back their growth potential, they seem to finally get it and consequently are attacking poverty, given the real growth potential as seen in China, attacking poverty is the most successful way to create sustainable/snowballing economic growth!

One of the most exciting prospects on the immediate horizon is a prototype 300 MW thorium reactor expected to be operational this year?

Cheaper than coal thorium, abandoned if the fifties, because there was no weapons spin off, and vastly less far less toxic waste, provides new hope for impoverished Indians, who would otherwise face the confiscation of their land and humble hovels for new hydro projects!

Bold plans include brand new cities and massive development, which we could assist as a preferred trading partner!

Alan B. Could not agree with you more. I have also extolled the virtues, both moral and financial of prioritising trade/economic links with India (over China) for years. I was delighted when Australia approved sales of Australian uranium to India and fully support the development and sale of Queensland coal to that country.
