1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,480 Speaker 1: International Correspondence with ends and eye insurance, peace of mind 2 00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:09,479 Speaker 1: for New Zealand business. Let's go to six PR Perth 3 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: Life Present, Oliver Peterson, Oliver Good Afternoons, some good news 4 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: for those Barling nine returning home. 5 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, indeed it is Ryan. 6 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 3: And this one actually hits really personally for me because 7 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 3: back in twenty fifteen I was there at Chili Chap 8 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 3: when Andrew Channer, Mari and Silkamarain were shot via firing 9 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 3: squad there at the executions, covering it for Channel nine 10 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,879 Speaker 3: News here in Australia and it was both the toughest 11 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,279 Speaker 3: thing that I have ever done, but professionally obviously it 12 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 3: was just eye opening. Just to see sort of the 13 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 3: the blood in the theater sport around what happens at 14 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 3: an execution. Ryan was just quite fascinating because it's almost 15 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 3: like we turn up to a rugby match or a 16 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 3: cricket match to go and you know, Barrick on the 17 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 3: All Blacks or Barrick on the Wallabies and people turn 18 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 3: up to sort of listen to watch the hear the gunshots, 19 00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 3: the execution. 20 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 2: But this this. 21 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 3: Has been sometime coming and as we heard there from 22 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 3: the Prime Minister Anthony Albanesi in the world wise that 23 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 3: this is an act of compassion. Many people in Australia, though, 24 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,639 Speaker 3: it is dividing opinions, to be honest, Ryan, because they're saying, 25 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 3: why is this a priority of the Prime Minister at 26 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 3: the moment when we have so many issues here in Australia. 27 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 3: I look at this and think, look they've done nineteen years. Yeah, 28 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 3: they made some very very foolish mistuck, some massive mistakes. 29 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 3: I'm not advocating for anything that they did or tried 30 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 3: to do, but it is nineteen years. It's a lifetime 31 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 3: ago for young people. The fact that they're back in 32 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 3: Australia now. The question being asked though by a lot 33 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 3: of people is for what purpose though, What has Australia 34 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 3: promised Indonesia? And I think that is a fair question 35 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 3: if they were part of the negotiations, But this is 36 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 3: a tricky one to navigate. 37 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: Do we know Indonesia was offered if anything? 38 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 3: No, And that's the big question that has not been 39 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 3: answered that the Prime Minister has been asked to basically 40 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 3: come clean. Well, what has happened as a result of this? 41 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 3: And I think if you look at the relationship between Australia. 42 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 3: In Indonesia it has been hot and cold from time 43 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 3: to time and maybe this is a part of a 44 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 3: bigger picture in repairing relations. For what reason or for 45 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 3: what's going to happen next? Is the question I think 46 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 3: that we should have. 47 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 1: Answered interesting Melbourne as never going to bring back It's 48 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: Australia Day. 49 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 3: Parade, No, not if the Allen government, the Labor government 50 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 3: in Victoria remains in power. And you know who can 51 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 3: see why they want They've been there for so long 52 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 3: when Dan Andrews was in charge of that particular state. 53 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 3: It was canceled during the COVID years, but it never 54 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 3: came back. And even when it was canceled during the 55 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 3: COVID years, many people, why are you canceling this? You've 56 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: still got the Boxing Day Test cricket going on with 57 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 3: thirty thousand people. But it's interesting, you know the Australia 58 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 3: databate always pops up, doesn't it, Ryan? 59 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 2: And unfortunately with this one you've. 60 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 3: Still got two thirds of people polled by Roy Morgan 61 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 3: saying come on, let it go ahead. 62 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 2: It's a good day of celebration. 63 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 3: It's something to try and unite everybody in Victoria and 64 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 3: everybody around Australia. But that's the biggest problem. And until 65 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 3: we can find the data, I mean, I see it 66 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: around here in Perth. Every twenty sixth of January. People 67 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 3: don't want to fly the flag anymore. They don't want 68 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 3: to say Happy Australia Day. 69 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 2: They're too nervous to do it. 70 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 3: So until somebody has the backbone to actually decide that 71 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 3: this is no longer the day to celebrate this nation, 72 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 3: we need to find another day so we can actually 73 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 3: do what we say we want to do and go 74 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 3: and say, hey, guess what. We still live in the 75 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 3: best country on the planet. We are the lucky country, 76 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,959 Speaker 3: but you feel nervous about doing it. So we need 77 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 3: to find another date. I don't know what that date is. 78 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 3: Nobody can ever give you an answer to that one either. 79 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: Cricket commentators had to apologize for using the word primate. 80 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, so, Ishakua has been in a bit of hot water. 81 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 3: Yesterday in the first session during commentary, she described the 82 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 3: Indian fast bolo Ja Boomera as the MVP and that 83 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 3: pe was yes with primate. So look, it's erupted on 84 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 3: social media. She just addressed the cameras before play on 85 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 3: the third day between Australia and India at the Gabba ground, 86 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 3: and she's indicated that it was not any malice, so 87 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 3: that was not her intention at all. She apologizes for it. 88 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 3: She said she's always shown empathy and respect. She's a 89 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 3: champion for equality, inclusion and understanding. And Easha Gi her 90 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 3: herself is a lady of South Asian heritage. 91 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 2: Her parents are. 92 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 3: Indian and it was interesting when she delivered this sitting 93 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 3: next to Ravi Shastri because he indicated that he says 94 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 3: that she was brave to do it on television to apologize. 95 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 2: She's done it. We should move on. 96 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 3: People are entitled to make mistakes, so I think that 97 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 3: one may have been put to better. I don't think 98 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 3: Ishagur will be canceled now and look good on it. 99 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 2: She owned up. 100 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 3: She's got on the front foot with that and she's 101 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 3: a brilliant cricket commentator. I'm sure that she will be 102 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 3: able to catch up with Jasper Bummera after this Test match. 103 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: And move on from the whole thing.
