Nice story Gav. What happens to half a billion people in south-east Asia is going to have a big impact on the future of 25 million people in Oz. And we get a good deal of our oil imports from regional exporters like Malaysia.
I think the Malays will be able to adjust for a while - compensating for declining oil production with gas and palm oil -> biodiesel.
There were a few letters to the editor in the papers about solar power - given the propensity for government mandated industrial development they might start to get with the program and build a few PV factories once the writing is on the wall.
Then again they could just build more coal fired power and make the place even hotter.
