ok, thank you for telling me. I wouldn't like to be a North Korean.

I've just seen a video of a young girl who had fled North Korea and was speaking out of the horrors of being North Korean, I don't know if you have seen it but if not here is the link.

That's very powerful LQ. I didn't realise China are repatriating those who escape. That's tragic because they may as well shoot them based on this video. It's impossible to comprehend but it just makes it so important to protect our liberties.

Re: Chinese Coronavirus

The Department of Foreign Affairs says Australians planning to take cruise ship holidays should think again.

"We advise you to reconsider taking an overseas cruise at this time, particularly if you have underlying health concerns," the department said in an update published on the Smart Traveller advisory website.

Foreign Affairs Minister Marise Payne urged Australians to follow the new directives.

"Disruptions due to quarantine and denials of entry to ports can have significant effects on travellers," she said.

I think we are likely to go into "delay" phase in the next week or so.

My grandson is supposed to be going on a College trip to Naples in June and I'm quietly hoping the College will cancel it.
