What happen to the socialism is bad, and that it would raise your private health insurance etc etc...

Look at what's happened. From now on I should just ask one powerful question to all in Australia: What happened?. You should ask from the powerful source : "Underground Resources". Try digging 100m deep down to understand why it is golden... heehee. Oh...

Open a bank account in Australia and you can transfer funds via Telegraphic Transfer within 24 to 48 hrs. This is the cheap and convenient. If you have a HSBC local account or Citbank, you can do the TT online without visiting the bank. This is the ultimate. The charges are pretty much uniform.
