In a couple of hours I’ll be on a plane to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I’ve got a few days work stuff to do there, then all day Saturday to do some shopping and sightseeing before flying out very late Saturday night.
I’ve been to KL a couple of times before, and really like it. Malaysian food = yum!
….that causes extreme racism in young men around Cronulla, in Sydney. The proud tradition of the 2005 race riots has been carried on by James Anthony Dean-Willcocks, who, after a drunken night out celebrating his 23rd birthday, came across a 67 year old Filipino man in the street at 5.30 on Saturday morning. So he did what every young redneck does on meeting an Asian, beat him to death (allegedly of course).
Residents of Elouera Rd, Cronulla, told police of being woken about 5.30am on Saturday to a male yelling: "F–k off back to Japan." According to one witness statement a man was heard to cry: "Help, help." One witness said he went out to his balcony and allegedly saw a man "fling the victim on to the footpath, pick up the victim, shake him and throw him to the ground." The accused then allegedly punched him to the head and body up to 10 times. Another witness told police he saw the victim thrown on to the road, with Mr Dean-Willcocks seen "on top of the victim punching him". One witness told police he yelled at Mr Dean-Willcocks to stop, asking what he was doing. "Mate, he is Japanese and he deserves it," the accused allegedly answered.
Stunned onlookers prevented Mr Dean-Willcocks leaving the scene until police arrived. He has since told police he has "no recollection" of the incident and his last memory was "some time in the early hours of the morning" while he was at the Mercure Hotel in the Sydney CBD. He does not know how he got to Cronulla.
The answer to that last question is some sort of magnetic attraction – Cronulla being racism central just draws them as if by magic. I have a feeling Dean-Willcocks may well have been there before, like in December 2005.
