I would like to see you prove that they haven't contributed to the decline.

I look forward to the day when Nguyen is not the fasted growing name in the Australian telephone book, but the most common name in the book. With only 16 million in Australia, you had better hurry and learn Vietnamese, as I doubt that the Vietnamese majority will support English as the official language. Do you have any pets?

Have you refused to accept Asia, until they take in Australians? I doubt very much if resource rich Australia, only got in good with Asian trading partners, because they decided to start taking in some of the desperate Asian hordes, fleeing their wretched homelands.
