Now: Stop playing and get out of the sand box - time to reveal your superior knowledge about the faults of the AJ story. Still dont know why the SBS writer was said to be drunk. So much about facts and unsubstantiated blurbs.

AJ is generally very good. Alone the Qatar-Turkey alliance has left a pretty bad dent in their Turkey reporting. The AJ guys I met on the ground have so far been all pretty good. My professional opinion, i work in a related field.

Well sir if you work in a related field you should be able to read what fax said and understand it. Fax is saying that the article pushed out by some journo based in S-ville is fake news not AJ (please keep up sir).

It would take a cursory glance at what penalties you can face if you provide false information for this in Australian (not much investigation). Then to pump out a piece with the clickbait headline "Cambodian tax boss faces jail over Aussie residency claims" based on nothing but that is fake attention grabbing news. It suggests an investigation is underway that the government have made a statement going after him and an arrest is imminent.

none of this is true, the journo basically has found out what the penalty is and spun a story out of it to get clicks suggesting this is what will happen. As BC just said, nothing will happen, everyone knows this too much political fall out at risk. Ergo this is fake news (without truth or merit). The journo probably knew this but sure it makes a heck of a good yarn.

As for the drunk comment, I'm sure fax was just using the same artistic licence (lazy journalism) as the journo, people who are still left living in S-ville are usually drunks, ergo jorno must have been drunk

What if Ian Neubauer has told Australian authorities that he lives in Australia to collect benefits but he's living in Cambodia writing articles about Cambodian officials that have told Australian authorities that they live in Australia but they live in Cambodia? Meta.

Reminds me of an Alanis Morrisette song....

Just as an alleged murder "faces jail time" if tried and convicted, so too does someone alleged to have provided false information to ASIC, as confirmed by the ASIC spokesperson: “A breach of this provision is punishable with 100 penalty units or imprisoned for two years, or both. The current value of a penalty unit is $210.”

Collecting benefits in Australia usually requires meeting Centrelink's "mutual obligation" requirements, such as fronting up in person to regular Centrelink and job search provider appointments, and reporting job applications, training, and income every two weeks, or doing work for the dole, so living outside Australia and getting regularly published by national and international news outlets and telling everyone as much on all your social media profiles would make this difficult to pull off.

Our friend Ian Neubauer, journalist working in Sihanoukville writing rubbish like this article, has taken to Twitter to express his most sober feelings. "Stop sucking Chinese willies", it flows like poetry.
