Question:
One man started the day early having set his alarm clock (MADE IN
JAPAN) for 6 a.m. While his coffeepot (MADE IN CHINA) was perking, he
shaved with his electric razor (MADE IN HONG KONG). He put on a dress
shirt (MADE IN SRI LANKA), designer jeans (MADE IN SINGAPORE) and
tennis shoes (MADE IN KOREA).
After cooking his breakfast in his new electric skillet (MADE IN
INDIA) he sat down with his calculator (MADE IN MEXICO) to see how
much he could spend today.
After setting his watch (MADE IN TAIWAN) to the radio (MADE IN INDIA)
he got in his car (MADE IN GERMANY) and continued his search for a
good paying AUSTRALIAN JOB.
At the end of yet another discouraging and fruitless day, Joe decided
to relax for a while.
He put on his sandals (MADE IN BRAZIL) poured himself a glass of wine
(MADE IN FRANCE) and turned on his TV (MADE IN INDONESIA),
and then wondered why he can't find a good paying job
in.....AUSTRALIA!
Answer:
Another man wakes up at 6am in Cebu city. He has a hot shower thanks to his
Australian made solarhard heater. He sits down for breakfast and has some
Australian Peaches with his Cornflakes and Australian Jam on his toast. He
makes sure that his water is clean with an Australian made water purifier.
He uses Australian dried milk in his Coffee. As he drives to his office he
reflects on the traffic chaos which used to exist. He is glad that the whole
city now has an AWA designed traffic system with every traffic light made in
Australia. For lunch he has Australian Beef and Australian peas. In the
afternoon he has to take the ferry to go to another Island. As the weather
was not the best, he took a light jumper of Australian Wool and he was glad
that all the ships had Australian made navigation Equipment. etc. etc. etc.
It works both ways!
