Title: Third-world streets in Australia
Post by bambu on Jun 30^th, 2013 at 2:56pm

A man rang the radio from a NSW coastal town recently...complaining that the value of his home/unit has dropped by $100,000 in the space of 12 months [a real estate agent has advised him], because of the way people the federal govt has housed in his street are living.
"The area has gone downhill" he said.

Time to stop the people-smugglers.

That's actually the housing bust that caused the drop in house price.

I know people whose houses have been de-valued by that much and they don't have subsidised housing in their street. Go figure.

We have an African doctor and his young family living a few doors down from us and our house value keep going up so i doubt that having darkies in your street has anything to do with the value of your property unless you are living in 1950's Britain.

I'll have a random guess that the African doctor and his family didn't come by people smuggling boat from Indonesia.

The radio caller was concerned not about the colour of the people's skin, but their lifestyle culture which was making the street look like a rubbish dump etc.

A family of some type of people have moved in next door to us and the place is a mess. She's got a nijab so I think they are from Pakistan. I found out that the husband doesn't know how to mow.?????? I wouldn't be surprised if they are from a refugee boat. How many of you do-gooders out there can honestly say that you live amongst your multicultural wet dream? I know I do!

I won't for this reason. I put fertiliser on my lawn and he come over whinging about the smell .Also the fact that my grapevine was growing over his side of the fence. Why would he worry about a grapevine when his place looks like a brothel. It's just rubbish but you've been in the house 2 weeks and that's the greeting you get. Cultural differences can have an impact on a neighbourhood.

You heard others: invite them over for a long neck of red and some thawed sausage rolls :).

On a serious note, I'd actually slightly agree with you. I spend some time in india and yes some of the things our Society accepts vs their society is different. Predominately because in India, north India at least, bins are not necessarily everywhere ans the poverty has resulted in littering. Plus (joke) a wrapper on the ground is feed for the cow ;).

But all of this can be easily solved if you didn't sit on your arse and shake you head but rather made some new friends and helped with the integration process.

That probably was a poor generalisation and I'm sorry for the offence. Multiculturalism does pose some obstacles. Particularly when you lived a certain way for a long time. I love the ambition that new australians bring. They're are optimistic which I love. Some can show a lack of respect for people that have lived here longer and have given more to the country though.

Apology accepted Big Dave, but....I can tell you that all you have to do is go out of your way to befriend the bloke and you will be amazed how your life will be enriched. Our bbqs are nothing but mundane compared to what they can cook up! If you have a Hindu, he'll enjoy a beer, and if you twist his arm just a tad, a Paki will as well. Go for it! You have everything to gain.

I live in the epicentre of multicultural australia aussie. I portray myself as being like Ted Bullpit but I've had friends and been to BBQs from all around the world. They just have to be careful though and keep thinking it out. There's alot of people I talk to that aren't happy. I'm middle right and I know people of all colours that would stick a picture of Adolf on their wall in a second. It's not a rosey picture in all of our multicultural suburbs you know.

You’re showing that you’re not a two dimensional moron, Big Dave, and have the courage to admit your mistakes. This, Ithink, is much more interesting than reading the usual anti-multiculturalism party line - the one imported from Europe like an Ikea flatpack.

Yes, different ethnicities have their own peculiarities, and no one can deny this. Multiculturalism certainly has its discontents.

It’s no different to Athenian or Roman times. Living in cities has its discontents. We all have different gods.
