Listened to #PhillipAdams and #RogerPulvers presenting a brief history of #AustralianJapanese relations on #ABCRadioNational #LateNightLive.
There was some emphasis on the #WhiteAustraliaPolicy, little to none on the atrocities committed against Australian POWs and much on shared values and a current strong relationship.
Thing is (in my understanding) the earliest trade interactions between #Australia and #Japan weren't mentioned.
