Defence funding will remain steady next year at about $25 billion. The government will spend $1 million for better protection Australian troops in Afghanistan. The taxpayers will spend $44 million over two years to keep troops in East Timor. Also, hundreds of million of dollars will be saved by deferring expenditure on big ticket items. More than $320 million will be spent over four years to improve base security.
My personal reflection
I think that defence found has to be steady. It seems that government spends a lot of money on all this things. However it has to be good founded because that is a vital part of our country.

According to this case Fairfield police have advised children to take care when they use the Facebook and provide personal information on Internet.Same of advices are to stay anonymous and tell to parents or an adult if somebody online says something that sound inappropriate.
My personal reflection
In my opinion children today have more freedom to do what they wont. That obviously cause many problems. In the other hand Internet offer so many interesting things for them to do. As an effect of participation face book is possibly an insecure life.

It is very important if government can reduce the crime in our communities.
