Physically Australia is closest to countries of South East Asia, however, culturally, Australia belongs to the Western part of the world due to its colonisation 200 years ago by the Great Empire then Great Britain.

Although Australia is Down Under on its own, borders no other land but the Pacific ocean, yet on its soil live people from all around the world. People like myself and others that have chosen to make Australia their home.

To me Australia is the home that has given peace and security at a time my own home country was in the midst of a civil war. It has given me education that of which my onw country could not have given me. It is now giving my children a future and a place to pursue their dreams and potentials. I am forever grateful to this wonderful country.

Although, some may still view people like myself and other migrants as strangers or "wogs", even after 30 years, I feel that I am so much part of this land. The best years of my life were lived and outlived in Australia. My hopes and dreams of a good fertile future were also realised and pursued in Australia with the help of Australia's fair Education system and the facilities that are accessible to all with no discrimination whatsoever.

I mostly feel Australian when I am far away from Australia. I realise then how much I have acquired from the Australian way of life. The way I like openness and despise formalities was all a result of my long living in Australia. In a working place almost everybody is on first name terms whether a person is in a managerial position or at the bottom of the ladder.
I believe this has emanated from Australia's humble beginnings, far away from the motherland Great Britain, which meant far away from royalty, protocols, etiquettes and the ascending and descending social classes.

Early Australians were all equal and of the same social class except for the governors and their families who were a minority. This trend seems to have continued along the decades and from generation to another until this modern day Australia.

As a result, the simple way of life is what is mostly desired in Australia that of which in turn have made Australia a unique and a special coutnry to live in. No wonder that anyone who visits Australia would like to return or remain to make it home including myself.

This is the part of Africa that functions. And this Africa also needs media attention, if it's to have any chance of fully joining the global economy. Africa's media image comes at a high cost, even, at the extreme, the cost of lives. Stories about hardship and tragedy aim to tug at our heartstrings, getting us to dig into our pockets or urge Congress to send more aid. But no country or region ever developed thanks to aid alone. Investment, and the job and wealth creation it generates is the only road to lasting development. The images the media portrays does not always necessarily mean that Africa is a bad continent or the people from the continent are pathetic s, due to the instability of African background and scar marred deep into the continent, there are still so many issues the African nations are fighting like bad government, poverty e.t.c poverty cannot be erased but its getting reduced.
You have seen the images on the TV about Africa: the huts, the famine, disease, war but they never show Africa is so beautiful and not every part of Africa and people are poor.

These are places in Africa, there are loads of them which if continued will never end;
if the Western society have a little knowledge of great things about Africa and it's a wonderful and beautiful place to be. Africa has really and amazingly change, its sun has come like after the rain comes the sun and it is still rising high in the sky maybe this the moment young generation will do something to change the Africa they always show...so when ever the show Africa we can be proud and confident. And tell our kids that it was my generation that made the change and i was a part of that change.
