https://www.theguardian.com/australi...ng-of-pandemic

Under the details of the visa rebate program, the $630 fee for international students will be covered for the next eight weeks, and for backpackers for 12 weeks.

Morrison said his message to 150,000 international students and 23,500 backpackers with visas was to “come on down”.

“We want you to come to Australia and enjoy a holiday here … [and] move all the way around the country,” Morrison said.

Tongan man swept away by tsunami stayed afloat for 24 hours
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jan/20/tonga-tsunami-man-afloat-24-hours

The story of a Tongan man washed away by the tsunami and who drifted and swam between islands for more than 24 hours has become one of the first to emerge from the island nation, five days after the disaster cut off communications between it and the rest of the world.

Lisala Folau, a retired disabled carpenter, told Tongan radio station Broadcom FM that he swam and floated from his island of Atata via two other uninhabited islands to eventually reach the main island of Tongatapu, a total distance of around 13 kilometres.

“Bear in mind that I am disabled. I can’t walk properly … and when I can, I believe a baby can walk faster than I,” he added.

Australian government buys copyright to Aboriginal flag in $20m deal
https://www.theguardian.com/australi...ag-in-20m-deal

The Aboriginal flag can now be reproduced on apparel and merchandise after the federal government secured its copyright to resolve a complicated legal dispute over the use of the emblem.

The Morrison government has paid more than $20m to obtain the copyright to the flag, plus terminate commercial licenses owned by companies which had limited the reproduction of the symbol.

Có răng mà không có lợi:

Queensland man allegedly sawing off another man’s leg
https://www.theguardian.com/australi...other-mans-leg

Police allege the men – aged 36 and 66 – drove together to Innisfail’s Fitzgerald park before 4am on Saturday and sat under a tree.

They said about 20 minutes later the 36-year-old allegedly used the saw to cut off the 66-year-old’s leg below the knee before helping him back into the car then leaving on foot.

The injured man was discovered by passersby at about 4.30am and emergency services were called but the 66-year-old died soon afterwards.

Ukraine rồi đến Úc rên:

What caused the ‘rain bomb’?
https://www.theguardian.com/australi...loods-unfolded

There are up to 15,000 homes flooded in the city, with 1,544 people in evacuation centres in the south-east. Trains are cancelled, bus services limited, the main Bruce Highway is closed at multiple locations and 51,000 people are without power. At least 3,600 homes are flooded in Gympie.

According to Domensino, some 611.6mm of rain fell on the city between 9am Friday and 6pm Sunday – the highest three-day total in records dating back to 1840. The previous record was 600.4mm in 1974.

Domensino says while several features in the atmosphere combined to deliver the rain, climate change likely made the event worse.

Tin đồn:

Australian online anti-vaccine groups switch to Putin praise and Ukraine conspiracieshttps://www.theguardian.com/australi...e-conspiracies

Sean Ambrose, a UAP Senate candidate for New South Wales, appeared to defend Putin in a tweet on Saturday, in response to another post critical of the Russian leader being a member of the World Economic Forum. The global organisation has been a key focus of online conspiracy theories, particularly those about a supposed “great reset” plot against humanity.

“I was initially of the same opinion but let us not forget that he [Putin] expelled the Rothschild Banking families from Russia and is now shutting down the child sex and human trafficking and the U.S. biological weapons facilities in the Ukraine,” Ambrose tweeted.

He tweeted on Sunday that the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, “is a stooge for Klaus Schwab”, the founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum. He also wrote “Media telling lies again” when retweeting a post stating that an Australian news story on the invasion had used a fake photograph of an injured Ukrainian.

Dr Kaz Ross, a researcher studying conspiracy movements, said a distrust of the media was driving the movements.

“The deep underlying belief structure of these movements is like Qanon, in that they believe there’s secret stuff going on that we don’t know about and the media is lying to you, so whenever you see a simple explanation for something, that’s not right,” she told Guardian Australia.

Thiệt ra nha là Putin được CIA cài vô Kremlin để làm hại nước Nga. Chờ xong hết vụ này sẽ có tiết lộ chấn động trong bài “Bình Nga Đại Cáo” của Ứcraine Trai.

Sydney Harbour turns brown after floods
https://www.theguardian.com/australi...g-after-floods

Pollution washed into Sydney’s beaches and waterways could linger for days, with state authorities urging swimmers to exercise caution after the flood disaster.

Sydney Harbour turned brown as a result of storm water carrying soil and debris, and algal blooms have appeared on the usually pristine sands of Hyams beach in the Jervis Bay region.

Rainfall is the major driver of pollution into coastal areas because it generates storm water and triggers the overflow of raw sewage into waterways.

Flood waters, sediment and debris are behind the murky colour of many waterways along the New South Wales coastline and the viruses and bacteria carried by untreated sewage can pose a health risk to swimmers.

New Zealand: Tân khoai lang

Giant New Zealand potato is not in fact a potato, Guinness World Records
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...-records-rules

After months of submitting photos and paperwork, the couple got the bad news from Guinness in an email last week.
“Dear Colin,” the email begins, going on to say “sadly the specimen is not a potato and is in fact the tuber of a type of gourd. For this reason we do unfortunately have to disqualify the application.”

Craig-Brown remains a big believer in Dug, who still sits in their freezer.

“I say ‘gidday’ to him every time I pull out some sausages. He’s a cool character,” Craig-Brown said. “Whenever the grandchildren come round, they say, ‘Can we see Dug?’”
