though most of the advices make sense when living in a foreign country.....c'mon, its true, you cannot behave like you do back in india when u come to a different country.....they have rules....you cant cross the road wherever and whenever u like, u cannot lewdly ogle at women wearing short clothes, you cannot spit,litter or pee in public.....these are common decency points, which we as indians usually lack.......but i find it difficult to believe that anyone can find another person speaking in their native language offensive....australians do not speak in an indian language when they come visiting...yes one should not be loud and boisterous.....but i dont think they take offense to you speaking in your language.....i live in canada, and some people might but not all do...c'mon we have hindi-tamil,hindi-marathi thing going on back.....but, like we get impressed when a foreigner speaks our language, they will get impressed if u speak their language reasonably well. so the most important thing is to learn a bit about the country's culture that u are shifting to...and respect it.also remember in hindi movies the hero can go to USA or wherever and the firangs will fall for him and chase him or lust after him.....its not true in reality, so guys keep your package packed in your pants.

I am a British person currently working in India and have spent some time in the past in Australia.
Let me give some general advice – I am not trying to be patronising or offensive here but here are some basic differences between places like Australia (and the UK) and India: 1) Alcohol is not demonised. It’s just a part of life. You don’t “take” alcohol, you drink it. Yes, people become more confident (louder and possibly more aggressive) when they’re drunk but this is just what happens. 2) In India it’s noisy and people don’t mind noise – not so in Australia. Playing music out loud on a phone, talking loudly, playing TV/radios loudly...these are all seen as rude. 3) In Australia it is rude to burp, spit or clear one’s throat loudly in public. 4) Men should not hold hands in public and should respect “personal space”. Men do not show affection towards each other (a hand shake is about the only time they’ll touch). 5) Indian men often gather in intimate groups for discussions. This could be perceived as threatening so try to keep to smaller groups or keep more space between you. 6) Find things in common! Speak English as often as you can (this is welcoming and non-threatening). Watch TV, read local papers – try to be aware of what’s happening locally. 7) Avoid dodgy areas – applies everywhere (including India). Be prepared to spend money for a nicer area. Don’t take advantage of peo

All non christian indians should leave australia. Why dont they all stay in India. These people bring trouble on other people as well. Wherever they go they make a mess. They made a mess of India, now they are coming to Australia to disturb the christian civilisation there. Stay in India and practice your culture there. Who wants you in Australia
I suggest all the tourists in world,Australia is dangerous country to visit or study or whatever.Just imagine you're going alone,you can have bodyguards surrounding you all the time and all of a sudden 5-10 people come from nowhere and start hitting you without any reason.This happens only in Australia.Anyone considering to go there,my advice for them would be think 10 times before going there.I am saying this on the basis of what is going on there openly as all of you can see.

Raj Thackeray must be feeling inferior after listening to whats happening in Australia. Isn't Marathi Manoos prouder than Read head Aussies. Surely Raj Thackeray should start killing his own countrymen and hope to get Marathi blessing in terms of Vote and Power.
