Police arreste three on roof

Summery:
Three members of the protest group collective perched above the roof of the Immigration minister's (Chris Bowne) office. They were supporting the protesters in villa wood detention centre asking a release for the asylum migrants in Australian detention centers. Therefore they were arrested by Fairfield police and they charged with trespassing and entering closed land.


Personal reflection:
I understand the great kind of those protesters as they are looking kindly on those immigrants' problems and they hope to release them in to the community, but they chose a wrong way to do so because they put themselves and the others in the risk. In addition many shops and businesses lost their customers for the whole day as the police tape around the area. I think in a democracy and developed country like Australia there are many modern ways let your voice to be heard.

Summry:

Clown doctors described a dose of laughter to overcome children's' health problems. There are more than 50 clown doctors who reach the live of over than 135000 persons in 20 hospitals each year. The common wealth bank raised money from the public and have supported clown doctors since 1999. Donations are help clown doctors to cover most of the hospitals around Australia. As international research has shown a good dose of humour helps relieve stress and recovery.

Personal Reflection:

In my opinion, those doctors who are offering a great help to relieve the major problems that all patients have such as the stress, loneliness, anxious, and fear are doing an excellent job. Those people who help a lot and they deserve a big donation from the community. I would suggest the government to fundraise some money for them, provide them with essential equipments in order to increase their activity and research related to the fun activities as a recovery aid.
