Come on, you can talk like a pro but if nothing was done, nothing will be done...if a non pro like you can already list down the potential danger that can cause forest fires, don't you think those high paid civil servants ought to know and need to act on preventive measures years ago?? Instead the option was given to them if they should run or stay back to defend their home.... and u slap yourself a 2nd time, if u think this policy is a waste of taxpayer money, why do ur efficient govt want to implement the policy asap now?? And why no protest against this stupid policy?? thanks God Sin govt do not need to run such a big continent, if not we will see a big mess like in China, USA, Aust, malaysia, thailand, Philippines...the list are too long, you can help me to add....haha.....
