Our First Australians have the longest continuing culture in the world. It is a culture that is both vibrant and unique, and which more international visitors to Australia desire to experience.
Aboriginal Australian culture is thought to be the world's longest continuing surviving culture!
An obvious target for tourism that can benefit everyone; by providing jobs and keeping the culture alive.

The home of the gorilla under threat from oil exploration?
Should they destroy the Virungas for oil?
The Democratic Republic of Congo’s prime minister has said that his government wants to find a way to explore for oil in the Virunga national park, a Unesco world heritage site , and will engage in negotiations with the UN body to “explore judiciously”.
Virunga, Africa’s oldest and most biodiverse park, has been on the list of ‘world heritage in danger’ since 1994, as two decades of armed conflict and intense poaching by militias has taken its toll on the park’s ecosystem.
In 2007, the Congolese ministry of hydrocarbons awarded two oil concessions straddling Virunga’s boundaries to the French major Total, as well as Soco International, a British oil company registered on the London Stock Exchange.
While Total quickly agreed to never explore within the current limits of the park – even in the event of a boundaries change – Soco has carried out exploratory activities in Virunga, concluding a seismic study in July 2014. The company said it will hand over the results of the seismic survey to the Congolese government in coming months.
