| Australia directs its citizens to leave Pak |
| 2002-05-24 |
| The Australian government has urged its citizens to defer all holiday and business travel to Pakistan, and suggested those already there to consider leaving. In a travel warning the Department of Foreign Affairs said, "Australians who choose to remain in Pakistan should exercise very high levels of personal security awareness and understand that foreigners may be the target of terrorist acts.'' The department has not advised citizens against travel to India, but has suggested avoiding travelling to areas bordering Pakistan. "Where'd you like to go on holiday this year, Shiela?" "Oh, Ned! Take me to Romantic Karachi! The explosions are lovely this time of year, and I'd so love to have my head cut off!" |
