Akon | 9 years ago | Reply @Zara Hurt? For what? For giving a guard of honour to a defense chief which is mainly reserved for Head of states?
SUn Tzu | 9 years ago | Reply @zara: Funny: at a time when Australia is frantically arming itself with American help and forming a partnership with Japan and India to counter your "higher than Himalayas, sweeter than honey" friend, you are over the moon with this visit - a type of visit which happens all over the world. Your media is highlighting it just to lift you guys' spirits a bit - albeit artificially! Have fun - no one is bothered!!! The world's bigger strategic picture and tectonic shifts which you are still in denial are intact!
