Indonesia and Anti-Australian Sentiment
Indonesia has been alleged to have a rise in "anti-Australian sentiment" over any suggestion of Australia interfering with its internal affairs. A 2003 study on Indonesian aspirants for a diplomatic position reported that 95% of them had Anti-Australian sentiment. The Post-Suharto era period also saw Anti-Australian sentiment in Indonesia over East Timor. In Indonesia this relates to generalized Anti-Western sentiment.

Famous quotes containing the word sentiment:
“Is there any religion but this, to know, that, wherever in the wide desert of being, the holy sentiment we cherish has opened into a flower, it blooms for me? If none sees it, I see it; I am aware, if I alone, of the greatness of the fact. Whilst it blooms, I will keep sabbath or holy time, and suspend my gloom, and my folly and jokes.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
