LOL, calm down retardo. You have nothing to worry, for neither my parents ever step their feet in Australia, nor do I feel any "bitterness" to Australia. You can say I am completely indifferent to your minor country.

BTW yeap Steve Irwin harassed the poor stingray, causing the creature to kill him. You harrass animals all the time, eventually the animal kills you. Fair enough.

Proud to be indo,

"to your minor country". Firstly that comment alone suggests you have hatred for australia, but if one looks at your opinions on other forums (which is quite easy to do) they all seem to have this same anti-australian sentiment. You talk about australia in such a condensending tone as though we are somehow inferior to indonesia?

But lets look at the word "minor" and have a good laugh. All you have demonstrated is your lack of education in this post, nothing more. Your fortunate to have such wealthy parents that send you abroad to get an education your country couldn't possibly provide. Obviosuly that education is not a degree in Economics or Business. How on earth is Australia minor to indonesia? Lets look at some cold hard facts here, indonesias population is 250 million, austraslia's is 19 million, yet, our GDP in the world rankings is 16th. Indonesia is 15th. Per capita your not even in the top 20!!

Now more importantly our GNP ranking which is money from australian comapnies locally and abroad and a true measure of the size of a countries Ecomony or as you put "Minorism" is 14th in the world, and guess what indonesia is? 25th!! In fact our GNP is 4 times that of indonesia. So it is indonesia that is the minor country as far as the world is concerned, we play a far bigger role in the world than indoneisa do and indoneisa has about 14 times more people!! In case you didn't realise in the tsunami disaster, the world doesn't stop spinning when a tidal wave engulfs your country. In fact if anything Australia had to use its far better economy to give your incredibly weak economy a helping hand. Or have you conveniently forgotten all the Aid that australia provided in your time of need.

So please as you were saying, Australia is minor to Indonesia because?

Get a grip, Ozgirl and some others. Some of the emotional commentary here is over the top. There are plenty of people doing good works for the environment. If Irwin did something for the environment, great. If some people liked his TV shows, great. It's sad for his fans and his family that he died, but he chose a dangerous occupation, just like Peter Brock, who has died today also sadly. We can have a moment of private reflection about each of these public figure's demises, but let's also keep a sense of proportion about it. Mass public grieving is not especially meaningful or tasteful.

@kish:

"Firstly that comment alone suggests you have hatred for australia"

Aww, don't be such a wuss. Far from suggesting "hatred" for weakling Australia, I am merely saying the cold hard truth as it is. I know my honesty might hurt Australians' hilariously exaggerated sense of self-importance, but the truth must be told. Deal with it lol

Just bear in mind, don't reckon Aussies can mess around with Indonesia. We are very nice people, but we will not shirk from extracting punishment from Australia should some of you clowns seek to misbehave with Indonesia.

"In case you didn't realise in the tsunami disaster, the world doesn't stop spinning when a tidal wave engulfs your country"

LOL, at that time for 99% of Indonesians, life goes on as if there was never a tsunami. For most Indonesians, the tsunami might as well occur in Alaska rather than Aceh.

@PK:

"Get a grip, Ozgirl and some others. Some of the emotional commentary here is over the top."

I understand your feeling, PK. It is very sad how the death of Irwin manage to somehow cause some OLO posters here into displaying racism and hatred for Muslims/Indonesians. Some Aussies sure are dumb.

If Proud to Indonesian grows another brain cell,it will have to have special counselling for depression,caused solely by loneliness.

Now this could be a first PTI,ie the immaculate conception of thought,in a vacuum.No how's that for an infertile mind?Yours must be the only vacuum that can divide, multiply and still produce hot air.
