I think I can put your mind at rest about the Chinese maps at least. You have to remember that back in the 80's (and even today in any but an International school which are few and far between) no traveller to China would have seen a map printed in English. The characters signifying "South OF China" and "South China" would be exactly the same. So all your visitors would have seen would have been an orientation map showing that Australia is to the south of China. Believe me, the average Chinese schoolkid has no idea where, in relation to China, Australia even is. And all but the most educated adults would still have a hard job locating it.

Paul, the point is not necessarily that recruitment is the only indicator of poor surival rate, but that its probably the first. In case you didnt notice, I do pay tribute to the courage of our troops past and present. The simple fact remains that when you are talking career soldiers (navy etc), there is a point beyond which people are not willing to risk their life for money. I believe its different if our home is under attack. Almost all of the wars or conflicts that we have been involved in have been political moves to keep a higher ally happy. It seems we disagree, but I dont consider this to be fighting in defence of Australia. At the end of the day almost all of us including defence force personnel, are all about making a living for ourselves. Some of us take on more dangerous or noble jobs than others, but they are still jobs.

Romany.
The first story I heard some years ago about the name NEW SOUTH CHINA came from an article in a christian magazine from a Christian missionary who was in China and had visited Chinese classrooms. For him to be there in China, preaching the Gospel to the people, he would have had to have known Chinese. The second mention of the re-naming of Australia came from The Epoch Times, Sydney (November 1-7, 2006) from a writer who responded to an earlier inquiry of mine about the name NEW SOUTH CHINA who said in response...quote, "In reply to Gibsons query I heard from a traveller in 1985 that maps of the world in Mainland Chinese schools had Australia named as NEW CHINA"...unquote. So I have two mentions of the renaming of Australia...yet sadly no photo of such maps. Maybe Im gullible but I always believe Christian missionaries and pastors and I dont mind anecdotal evidence. I also dont doubt that the Chinese would teach their children the global takeover plan. They dont build those already huge armies for nothing, and many children would be expected by Chinese leadership to enter military service...so why not a proud boast to encourage them that they are the superior race?

Theres part of the revelation over on http://propheticroundtable.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view7id=63&Itemid... Its quite remarkable and its beginning to happen.

It comes from Fair Dinkum Ministry back issue #43 (smaller articles)
http://www.cforu.net/files/dinkum/dink43s.php
quote..."Australia is ripe for invasion.
(Sunday Mail, 24/11/96). Indonesia has a standing army 493,000 strong. Australias armed forces are just 63,000. Indonesia is responsible for the deaths in East Timor alone of 500,000 men, women and children. They lay claim to all Australian territory above the 20 Degree latitude line (ie, the line below Townsville and Tennant Creek). Their maps describe this land as "SOUTH IRIAN". An Indonesian military camp is reportedly located in Australia's Northern Territory. (ACA, Surry Hills, NSW)"...unquote.
*About the Indonesian military camp, mentioned in the Fair Dinkum article, I remember an army friend saying a few years ago that sometime ago an Australian Army patrol came across a small camourflaged mountain of weapons and ammunition in behind the high tide mark, up in the sandhills, of one of our Northern Terriory beaches which they couldnt explain other than to believe that it was a pile landed as a prelude to an invasion. Thankfully no invasion occured. What the army did with the pile isnt known. Some strange things happen in the Northern part of Australia, from time to time.
