  2. Especially when it was developed by Ernie Dingo and Richard Walley in 1976 especially for a Forum in Perth to welcome South Sea Islanders who DID HAVE a "welcome" in their own lands, and expected Australian Indigenous people to have the same, which THEY DIDN'T, so one was created. Some indigenous people now claim it is "250.000 years old" hahahahahahah.

  4. And costs $ Millions per year from Australian taxpayers, just "topping up" the $34 BILLION already paid to Indigenous peoples hundreds of Organizations, that rarely reach those in real need.

  6. Don't forget to lodge a formal complaint about a "ceremony etc." that was developed in 1976 by Ernie Dingo and Richard Walley to welcome Islanders to a get together in Perth W.A. It is NOT, as claimed, 250,000 years old at all. Hahahahahahaha.

  8. The "Welcome to Country" was developed by Ernie Dingo and Richard Walley in 1976 specifically to provide a ceremony to South Sea Islanders to a Perth gathering. It was done as these visitors all had a welcome ceremony of their own and expected one from Australia. This craziness that it is a "250,000-year-old aboriginal ceremony" is just an OUTRIGHT LIE. It has been adopted as a money-making activity by the "woke" who just love to "top up" the $34 BILLION Australian taxpayers already provide to "select" individuals.
