Multiculturalism in Australia

The Australians appear to have given an overwhelming support for multiculturalism despite the recent beachside race riots in Sydney.

Most Aussies still enjoy the fruits of multiculturalism and are, therefore, tolerant of racial and ethnic differences, according the Australian newspaper report.

The Newspoll survey, just released, shows quite clearly that 70 percent of the population still support the idea of multiculturalism – down from a high of 78 percent recorded in 1997.

Thus, if there is prejudice in the great Land of Oz, there is also tolerance.
