Australian International Travel Ban Extended.
Re: Australian International Travel Ban Extended.
There's a link on smart travelers website about travel restrictions in there you contact them tell them your story and they then give or I presume don't give you the ok.
They then contact the airport your departing from and let them know you can travel.
So to answer you, I'd say some government official

I'm an expat in Thailand, correct. Obviously I hold Western countries to a higher standard than South East Asian la la land kingdoms and military dictatorships. I wouldn't accept an outbound travel ban in my home country, so I simply wondered why that flies in Australia. Funnily enough, Thailand does not ban Thai citizens from traveling abroad. Does any other country, Australia aside?cambo swa wrote: ↑Wed Jun 17, 2020 12:54 amYou are in Thailand (I think) or Cambodia and you are concerned about "oppressive nonsense"? Interesting concept.

I understand having an inbound travel ban due to the virus, but outbound? Why? That reeks of oppressive Communist regimes; the GDR in particular comes to mind.
Re: Australian International Travel Ban Extended.
I hear “police state” often with Australia. Certainly wasn’t like that 25 years ago. It really was the land of the free, and pissed. (Pissed as in drunk)
Don’t listen to Chinese whispers.

In AUS the government can do whatever they want on the grounds its "for your own good" I think the outbound travel ban is total bullshit.Alex wrote: ↑Wed Jun 17, 2020 8:49 amI'm an expat in Thailand, correct.

Oy! That's gonna make some very unhappy Aussie friends who are waiting to get back to Vietnam. However, kind of moot, I guess, since you effectively cannot enter VN or Cambodia.
Speaking of moot, the Aussie government keeps moving the goalposts for a disease that has no goalposts. SARS-COV2 will be around for quite some time, in my non-virologist's opinion.

WAR Declared. There is going to be a bloody war if this happens. While this communist f*^%$# government is asking for States to open their borders and doing deals to let overseas students into the country, we are being treated like children and second class citizens.

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Re: Australian International Travel Ban Extended.
I'm as frustrated as the next one but I understand there has to be international border controls implemented to avoid the risk of second, third, fourth....wave infections - sometimes we have got to consider others in the world other than ourselves and stop being so self centered oand selfish.
Having said that, I think Australian citizens should be able to travel abroad on the proviso they're not going to be welcomed back unless very stringent conditions are met such as negative health certificates, 14 day quarantines etc as some other countries allow.
This is the first time in over a decade I don't have a flight confirmation to somewhere sitting in my inbox and I'm pissed off at not even knowing when I might be able to travel again, but to suggest the Australian government is some kind of oppressive dictatorship is ridiculous.

Re: Australian International Travel Ban Extended.
If you believe in the official narrative you have been conned. Its not about public health, it is not selfish to disagree with the official BS.
Re: Australian International Travel Ban Extended.
As soon as you disagree with the official narrative, sheeple start bleating you are a tin-foil hat conspiracy believer. It is always two extremes for them. While incompetency is a more natural and obvious explanation to all the ongoing BS.Dunderhead wrote: ↑Wed Jun 17, 2020 3:41 pm If you believe in the official narrative you have been conned.

Re: Australian International Travel Ban Extended.
I'm more than prepared to listen to people who have informed views, but when arguments become the same repeated vague conspiracy rhetoric invariably coming from the same voices, it's hard to give much credence to the opinion.Dunderhead wrote: ↑Wed Jun 17, 2020 3:41 pm If you believe in the official narrative you have been conned.

So, if it's not about public health what's it about then? And please offer some evidence to support your belief, as opposed to vague conspiracy nonsense.
