Author: Paul Toohey Format: Paperback Number of Pages: 120 In Quarterly Essay 53, Paul Toohey tells the dramatic stories of asylum seekers heading from Java to Australia, investigates people-smuggling and witnesses the aftermath of a sinking at sea. Tony Abbott promised to stop the boats. With the help of Kevin Rudd's 'PNG solution,' he has. But at what cost? In Quarterly Essay 53, Paul Toohey tells the dramatic stories of asylum seekers heading from Java to Australia, investigates people-smuggling and witnesses the aftermath of a sinking at sea. Toohey also examines Australian attitudes to boat people, and what politicians have made of these. He assesses the diplomatic fall-out from turning back boats and asks- have we missed our chance for an Indonesian solution, a realistic alternative to the brutally effective system we now have? This is an unflinching look at people at their worst and best - and most ruthless and most vulnerable - by one of Australia's finest reporters. 'Any hope for a genuine regional solution rested with Indonesia, the final stepping stone to Australia . . . Why did neither Howard, in his better times with Indonesia, or Labor, from 2007, seek a one-on-one solution with Indonesia? 'The Indonesian Solution.' Those words would have been the most convincing political statement any Australian government could ever deliver to Australian voters on asylum seekers.' Paul Toohey, That Sinking Feeling.

By a Walkley Award-winning journalist, a gripping true crime-meets-political intrigue about East Timor, a place where animistic belief, witchcraft and tribal conflict ensure that truth and justice follow separate, uncertain paths.A president shot, a prime minister attacked, a rebel leader executed at point-blank range, and a beautiful Australian-Timorese woman accused of orchestrating the chaos. All fifty minutes flying time from Darwin.With President Jose Ramos Horta recovering from his wounds in Darwin, and Australia sent in to restore order, the rebels go on the run while their dead leaders mistress, Angie Pires, is charged with being their ringleader.To her rescue comes Australian barrister Jon Tippett, who soon breaks every professional responsibility by falling in love and sleeping with her.As a dramatic political crisis ripples through the young nation of East Timor, conspiracy, treachery and a cloud of deceit quickly shrouds events, denying a clear path to the truth.In this hard-boiled book based on his own reporting, journalist Paul Toohey unravels the circumstances that lead to the death of the rebel leader Reinado, a man many wanted to see dead. Fast-paced and razor-sharp, The Fatal Island exposes the dangerous power struggles behind the headlines, and Australias own role in the crisis.
