The bugging of Timor was undertaken by Downer and was in place in 2003, it was during Howards era (2004+) that the news of that bugging (and further bugging) came out with Witness K (who also mentioned Downer's involvement) and the US embassy leaks published by Wikileaks. (which resulted in a couple Labour and Liberal ministers resigning as they were on the CIA payroll). Downer instructed the ASIS operations to bug Timor of to the benefit of Woodside who were in negotiations at the time with the company over gas rights. Downer used an agreement from the 80's signed by Suharto to claim the gas fields, and gave the rights to Woodside. Downer on leaving parliament, was then employed by Woodside as a representative for a few years at $500k a year. Interestingly Downer also played down security concerns with Huawai equipment in our telecommunications network (even though their devices were caught phoning home to chinese servers run by the government on the quiet as soon as they had power, this is national infrastructure too, not mobile phones) and after woodside, Downer was employed by Huawai. TBH I suspect there could be a case against Downer for treason, he used Australian funds and intelligence services to give away gas rights to a foreign owned entity who then employed him in a possible quid pro quo situation. Witness K should be hailed as a hero. Anyone involved who did not push back against downer should join him in being charged.
