The Australian Federal Government was further embarrassed yesterday when the
largest recipient of Australian aid, Papua New Guinea, offered to help rescue
Radio Australia. PNG Prime Minister Sir Julius Chan offered to have $1 million
deducted from the Australian aid budget if it would help ensure the services
survival. "Radio Australia is the voice of reason in the region," Sir Julius
said.

This came from Melbourne's Herald/Sun newspaper. Feb 6 1997.
