BALI AND AUSSIE FAKE NEWSMost people don’t know this but I’m actually quite an adventurous chap. I’ve not been called Indiana Jones for nothing (by the way, ”Indiana Jones Part 5″ will be released in mid 2021 by Paramount Pictures). When I go to Bali, I don’t just go to the tourist areas. I go off the beaten track. I was in such a remote part of Bali that I could not get transport back to civilisation. I managed to go on this beaten-up van. It’s so old and in such a bad condition that its door could not even shut. There has been a recent false-news scare on Australian news media about Japanese encephalitis in Bali. I checked and realised it’s fake news. Every year, just before the Christmas holidays, you are sure to see such fake news on Australian news. Apparently, the Aussie press is not averse to using fake news to prop up Aussie economy. Too many Australians go to Bali for a holiday and that’s not good for the country. Interestingly, only Aussie newspapers carry the fake news. No non-Aussie newspaper publishes this except for that dubious Daily Mail which has the tendency of repeating any sensational story. And when Indonesia refutes the false news, no Aussie newspaper reports it. That’s fake news for you. But fake news has the effect on all of us - even those among us who know it’s fake news and that’s why you see the blue strap on my ankle. That’s a mosquito repellent. Haha.http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2018/11/10/no-japanese-encephalitis-outbreak-bali-agency.htmlhttp://www.asiaone.com/asia/bali-authority-denies-report-deadly-viral-infection-outbreakhttps://www.ttrweekly.com/site/2018/11/bali-reacts-to-false-health-scare/https://www.bali-villa-arrangements.com/news/australian-media-reporting-outbreak-of-the-deadly-disease-japanese-encephalitis-considered-as-fake-news-stated-by-bali-health-officialshttps://coconuts.co/bali/news/australian-media-coverage-japanese-encephalitis-dubbed-fake-news-bali-government/ -- source link
