Poke! 14-year-old drug trafficking; NO HORSEY NO!!! (7th October 2011)

14 year-old Boy got caught with drug arrest, in Bali, Indonesia [ABC]

Oh my god, this might stir up another roll of international conflict. so apparently this boy in Indonesia picked up a bag of cannabis, and he might face court and ended up in jail for 2-6 years. This incident has caught attention by Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd as well as the embassies of both countries, and a quick intervention from the Australian government has to be done before it's too late.

Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd told a press conference this afternoon that "a child in detention is of great concern for all Australians". But barrister Simon Lee says the Government is being hypocritical as there are nine Indonesian children accused of people smuggling being held in custody in Darwin. [...] If convicted, the boy could be jailed in Bali's Kerobokan Prison, along with a host of other Australians, including the Bali Nine, the Gold Coast's Schapelle Corby and Sydney man Michael Sacatides.

Honestly kids, don't ever do drugs in your country, let alone doing that in a country that might still have execution laws around.

15 horse dies at a property in Gold Coast, authorities have no idea what's going on yet [Courier Mail]

With the mysterious Hendra virus going on in Queensland, this perhaps has risen up fears that human might be also be infected with this kind of disease. Today, more than 10 horses were found dead at a property at Kooralbyn, in the hinterland at Gold Coast. They were to be one part of the multimillion-dollar horserace facility and now that they are all dead, the heartbroken owner is devastated.

"It's very sad - my partner and I have breed them and cherish them. They have a few ticks on them but I don't think, and the vets agree, that it's enough to do the damage that's been done." Mr Hongo said as he was just moved from Toowoomba 10 days ago.

There were several local people that went into the scene and tried to comfort the animals despite the fear of Hendra virus, as told by horse owner and resident, Mr Doug Wilson. I mean comparing to the mass-death of cattle back in the US, which people claimed was done by aliens and UFOs, this is much more scarier because you felt the immediate helplessness when watching all those precious horses die.
