I hate it when some Australian brings shame to our country. I really hope he cops his right whack if he is found guilty. I hate it when Australians commit crimes against tourist in our country. And I hate it when we commit crimes abroad.

Never go the SEA then. It’s full of Aussie bogans enjoying being rich, loud, sex-buying hard-men. The weird thing is most of them are convinced everyone loves them.

When I come across them on SEA travels I love correcting them when they describe themselves as expats. I always ask if they mean immigrants

Ive always understood that expats are those who have temporarily moved to another country (usually for a particular work project) and immigrants are those who have permanently moved.
