Language: The New Citizen Message

Day 330, 11:43 Published in Indonesia Indonesia by Raxo

Yesterday the Indonesian Government once again decided to ignore the Australians that will be born in Indonesian Australia. A Welcome Message that will be sent out to all new citizens born in this country was approved without any opposition. This message only contains information written in Bahasa Indonesia. Once again the Indonesian Government forgets that they will now be alienating Australian's that are born here. On sign-up Australia now does show up and it tells new Australians that Indonesia owns Australia. So Indonesia can expect a big boom of mostly English speaking citizens.
So I am going to ask the Indonesian President to please consider adding an English translation into his Welcome PM's. It's difficult enough for Australians to get to grips round here without having to struggle further with the language barrier. We may well be Independent in the near future but until that day happens I ask that Australians are not treated as second class citizens.
