get it together polititions. We llive in a world that i and my children would love to explore. But why if we do not have the faith in the goverment to be honest citizens, what ever happened to innocent until proven guilty. Bring her home no matter what guilty or not!!! I love Bali but there not getting my tourism money untill they relize we live in the 21st century and i fell safe going there.
please..i cry wen i see images of that poor girl sitting there..in a jail cell..sobbing..please i am begging for you to release her.. please..she is innocent
John Howard is a COWARD! STOP SUCKING UP EVERYONES ARSES AND BE THE LEADER YOU ARE MEANT TO BE!
If the Indonesians find her guilty, which it already seems they've made up their mind! We should send in Australian Troops and blow the hell out of them and free Shapelle ourselves! If it's alright for non-military Indonesians to blow up Australians, it should be more than alright for our defence force to blow the shit out of them... THEY DON'T CARE ANYWAY! THEY JUST LIKE TO TAKE OUR MONEY AND THEN HURT INNOCENT TOURISTS!
This is a discrace to humanity! We have done so much for their country and they thank us with falsely arresting an Aussie girl? That just displays an immoral society and quite frankly they'd be better off without a government at all! Indonesia will lose far more than just bad thoughts over this matter, they will lose tourism, Australia's money! And if Shapelle is found guilty, HOWARD needs to stop all trade with Indonesia! That will really screw them up! That might make them stop and think about what they are really doing! Threatening to kill someone is not an example of justice, it's an effort to make them look Big & Tough! But any NORMAL society would frown apon it, like Australia does! This woman is innocent of any wrong doing and it is clear that she was set-up, the evidence is there, yet they won't change their oppinions! This is a fine example of a 3rd world country's CORRUPT government! There is no justice, just disrespect and no reserve for human rights! If worse comes to worse, we should infiltrate Indonesia and break her out!
WE ARE A STRONG COUNTRY! BUT AT THE MOMENT OUR GOVERNMENT IS THE EQUIVALENT OF THER GOVERNMENT IF THEY DON'T DO SOMETHING TO FREE THIS WOMAN!
Do what is right, this will damage far more than votes, this could become a war issue... and I assure you AUSTRALIA WILL WIN!
Schapelle WILL be free!
Anyone with half a brain can see that Schapelle is innocent! And it's about time the Indonesian Government grew a brain and realised this! There is just SO MUCH reasonable doubt that Schapelle did not do this, and therefore MUST BE FREED and given compensation for the disgusting and inhumane way she has been treated by these people!!It is just so wrong that they can't even see that she is innocent even after people in Australia have come forward and said their luggage had been tampered with before! Doesn't this say that it is possible? The fact that she has to prove her innocence is just so ridiculous, this country has the most stupid and outdated laws which need changing. I find it absolutely disgraceful that in this day and age a country would put someone to death for allegedly having marijuana (which she didn't do) and not put do death a proven terrorist (Amrozi) that took the lives of their own people - the people in Bali's government really must have something wrong with them if they can't see the stupidity in their way of thinking! I for one will NEVER travel to Bali or anywhere in Indonesia, make any donation to or buy any products which relate to them and I know many, many people who are of the same opinion after seeing how they treat humans. If this petition gets to the Indonesian Government I hope you all take note of what everyone thinks of you and your stupid laws, they need to be changed and updated to be the same as some of the more saner countries in the world! WAKE UP & FREE SCHAPELLE from your disgusting and dirty jail and send this innocent poor girl home to her much better country Australia!!
I, like so many of those who have signed this petition, am disgusted at the Indonesian so-called "justice" system. An indonesian general who slaughters thousands of East Timorese is not brough to justice, yet a young Australian faces psychological torture and death because she allegedly imported drugs! I have been to Bali, but I will never go back after this.
How can they even think of the death penalty for this girl when the bali bombers have not had to go through near as much and they are guilty. This poor girl is guilty of not locking her bag and nothing else.
through my tears i can only beg for her release, this is so very sad, To schapelles parents and sister, i send my deepest thoughts,and let you know that you are in my thoughs every minute of every day, my beloved Bali is no longer
through my tears i can only beg for her release, this is so very sad, To schapelles parents and sister, i send my deepest thoughts,and let you know that you are in my thoughs every minute of every day, my beloved Bali is no longer
TOURIST MURDERERS..
I pray for her ..
but GOd's retribution is almighty ... fear god , you devils in disguise .. give no mercy ,, exptect none ..FREE HER
It sadens me terribly to know that an Australian is being treated in such a fashion. Send this poor girl home - she is clearly innocent. I am disgusted in our politicians and their lack of action in this matter - Mr Howard and Mr Downer should both be ashamed - to stand back as they have is just plainly unaustralian. If it were one of their children in Schapelle's place - I'm sure a lot more would have been done.
What an absolute outrage this is! Schapell Corby is innocent and anyone with half a brain can see that. The Indonesian Government are heartless and uncivilised and they should be totally ashamed of themselves for what they have put this poor woman and her family through. She needs to come home ASAP and the Australian Government needs to get off its arse to do more for her. The Indonesian officals are the ones who should be rotting in jail under squalid conditions not an innocent Aussie girl.
Mr Howard,
Sir Winston Churchill said" Sometimes it is not enough to do our; we must do what is require".
The Australian government needs to do what is required and now.
It's clear that Schapelle Corby - because of the evidence bungle at the Australian airport's end - has not received a fair trial. If she is convicted, Australia needs to do something to help! Justice requires this. Maybe challenge the decision on the basis that the Indonesian judiciary has breached international law principles - surely Aus's top lawyers could mount some sort of challenge on this basis!
How disgusting this situation is. After all the aid Australia provided after the tsunami and those ungrateful pricks treat our citizens like that. No sympathy from me in the future, arsehols.
The airport bag handlers need to be investigated. You can tell by the look on her face that she did nothing wrong and because of someone tampering with her bag She has been left to prove her innocence. Bring her home where she belongs. We have lost enough Aussies lives overseas. Dont let hers become one more
Enjoy isolation Indonesia, No friends here if you go through with taking someone's life for presumably entering your country with a bag of Pot. Change your stance and catch up with the rest of the world. - Good Luck Schapella, we are thinking of you
Australian need to be able to travel knowing that if they find themselves in trouble they can turn to Australia to make sure there human rights are looked after.
i am disgusted with John Howard and our govt for doing nothing i thought it was a govt's duty to protrct and assist australians abroad and you are innocent till proven guilty.....i love Bali..i have an Indonesian daughter in law...but no more Indonesia for me...John Howards Govt has made us a as hated as the Americans.I sincerely hope that schapelle is freed....NOT GUILTY!!!!
Unfortunately, as much as we'd like to think that this petition will make a difference, sadly its not up to us. The Indonesian Government will change their policy on capital punishment if only THEY decide. It just goes to show the difference between them, and us.
I have personlly visited 26 different countries in the World, and believe that the Judicial System in Indonesia is one of
the worst. I will never visit Indonesia unless their Judicial Laws are changed, as it could be me sitting innocently in Shapella's cell. Look at the facts Indonesia, and take note of what we Australians think of your barbaric, and out dated system.
I personally will never travel to, donate to, or buy, anything which relates to Indonesia in future, until these Judicial Laws are changed.Free this innocent woman, and allow her to return to her family where she belongs. Shapella, and Shapella's family, please stay strong, stay proud, as your innocence is obvious to everyone here at home.. I will continue to pray for you Shapella, until your safe return home.
its bullshit!!!! I agree with the boycott but think it should extend to the point where no one from that country should be allowed to enter NZ and Aussie until this shit is sorted out.
Why is that Schapelle is looking at a death sentence for allegedly smuggling in dope, yet can not really be proven it belong to her, yet there is Amrozi who is without a doubt guilty of killing many australians and admitted to it, yet will never face a firing squad. Where is the justice in this and where is the australian government? Why aren't they helping Schapelle to be set free and brought back to her homeland where she belongs!
This girl is so obviously innocent and the Indonesian legal people know it.
Schapelle Corby is being used as an example to deter real drug carriers from entering the country
What is Mr Howard doing to find the real truth in Australia?
Don't tell me a man whose Prime Minister of a country can do nothing.
If it was one of his kids they would have been home long ago.
The whole thing is political.
I for one will never visit Indonesia while there are plenty of other safer places to visit including our own country.
Is the life of one young innocent Australian worth a cheap holiday in Bali?
The Indonesian Justice system that says you are guilty until you can prove yourself innocent is just ridiculous and Barbaric. There is plenty of reasonable doubt, that Schapelle should be released immediately. I am also dissapointed in the Australian Government's lack of action. If she was a federal politician's daughter, she would already be home. Hang in there Schapelle, we're praying for you.
This is disgusting, anyone can see Schapell didn't do this.
And even if she was guilty, she is a human being she is an AUSTRALIAN citizen. BRING HER HOME. Why are we letting barbaric systems decider her fate.
HELP HER< STEP up Australia.
It is time to outlaw laws anywhere in the world that are irrational, regressive, inhumane, and barbaric. Such laws ought not to hide behind "multi-cultural diversity" any longer.
Indonesia is one of the most corrupt countries in the world. I have lived there and I have many stories of corruption with police and customs officerr. I can not believe the Australian Government hasn't gone over to Indonesia and taken Schapelle out of that hell already! I do not believe for one minute that she is guilty and if she is found guilty! Free Schapelle!
We know you are innocent Shapelle!!! Stay strong, as you have shown yourself to be & know you are always in our thoughts.
We wish for your return to Australia where you belong!
I can't believe something hasn't been done already to free Schapelle, this could happen to anyone of us anytime we travel - I don't know whats worse...having a terrorist on my plane or arriving at my destination safely only to be taken into custody for drug smuggling and being powerless to prove my inocence! Someone in power needs to do something NOW!
Given that this type of injustice coming from Indonesia is not unfamiliar ,one would only hope that this would set a precedent with Australias Government and set new standards with our interelations with them. Maybe this petition will be a start.
I know for one I will not travel to Indonesia until and unless a fairer system is put in place.
Good luck Schapella.
i seem to think, that if for somthing like this, it is absolutely barbarick, and primitive to even consider the death penelty, or a life time in prison. The Balinese government really needs to look closely at the facts and evidence(and the evidence that has gone missing!) and come to a conclusion that is'nt so damn ludicrous! Schapella, our hopes and prayers are with you, hang in there.
I am disgusted by the Indonesian treatment of Schapelle. What a barbaric country. Logic alone proves her innocence. It obviously was not her weed but even if it was she would make far more money selling it in Australia than Bali. My family will never travel to Indonesia if this girl does not come home. If it is made in Indonesia, put it back on the shelf. Why were we so generous to this country in their hour of need?
the indonesian govenment is the most corrupt system we have come accross. this girl has been set up from the begining bring her home asap before this whole senero turns into a diplomatic situation or worst
It is an absolute discrace what is happening to Schapelle Corby in Indonesia and like others I feel extremely strongly towards getting her home ASAP. Australian Government, Do something NOW.
My Brother was in Bali a few weeks before the Corby incident and it could have easily been him stuck over in Denpasar.
The whole legal system over there in Bali is just corrupt. No one deserves to die for this crime and it is very sad knowing that Schapelle has spent months already in jail and will be traumatised for life after whats happening. Stay away from Bali and Free Schapelle!
I never had any desire to visit indonesia, and after this I never will. Schapell you have proved to be a very strong woman to survive what you are going through. I have always thought you were innocent from the start. Stay strong and true.
Stop this ludicrous treatment of an innocent Australian woman! This is barbaric! Wake up.. Australia will boycott everything from Indonesia and crush your market! Your lives shall be hell!
She is innocent. Australia, don't blame the Indonesians - blame the filthy DRUG TRAFFICKERS who placed the drugs in her bag - The Indonesians are only trying to protect their people.
