'Neighbours' is a special edition of Insight from Metro TV, in Jakarta. Its
purpose is giving Australians an insight into Indonesian opinions of Australia.
Topics raised include Australia's foreign policies, Muslim extremism and the
trials of young Australians on drug charges in Bali. A poll had shown nearly a
third of Australians view Indonesia as a threat, a country where 90% of the
population is Muslim. This programme has been planned to coincide with the
anniversary of the terrorist attack in Bali in October 2002. Tragically, another
massacre in Bali has just occurred, over the weekend. But, what the studio
guests have to say is still very relevant.
The forum guests include Indonesian community leaders, politicians, diplomats
and journalists, many of whom have visited Australia. Amongst them are Yenny
Wahid, the daughter of the former Indonesian president - she once worked as a
journalist for the 'Sydney Morning Herald'; Desi Anwar, the senior newsreader
for Metro TV where this program was recorded; Wimar Witoelar, a former
presidential advisor and a well-known commentator; and Angelina Sondakh, a
former Miss Indonesia and a Member of Parliament.

[VANUATU] [VIDEORECORDING] : [SPIES OF THE PACIFIC].
Off-air recording of the SBS program broadcast 2/10/02. Copied under Part 5A of
the Copyright Act 1968.
Title from transcript.
Presenter, Jana Wendt ; reporter, Mark Davis.
A rare insight into the politics of Australia's Pacific neighbour Vanuatu, and
disturbing allegations about Australia's role in that country. In September 2002,
Vanuatu's army, the VMF, sparked a constitutional crisis when it tried to arrest
the senior ranks of the police force for mutiny. It was a dangerous standoff
since both sides were heavily armed. The army's action was in turn a response to
the arrest by police, of government officials, some weeks before. In the shadows
of this turmoil Australian Federal Police advisers in the country, now stand
accused of spying and undue meddling in the internal political process.
Australia is the superpower in this region, and many Pacific
nations resent what they see as Australia's efforts to control their political
agenda. Mark Davis gained extraordinary access to witness Vanuatu's political
process from the inside, during a week of crisis.
