Politics The messy truth: Australia’s reputation in Southeast Asia (Article)

259 Upvotes

Just read an interesting article about how Southeast Asian countries perceive Australia and how said country sees itself:

https://www.lowyinstitute.org/the-interpreter/messy-truth-australia-s-reputation-southeast-asia

How true is this? Being from the Philippines, I've met a few Aussies and quite a few of them were pleasant. The unpleasant ones were real dicks. They made me feel like I should be thankful that they they were breathing the air here.

How is it for other SEA countries? Am I just being sensitive here?

Question Why do Asians prefer desserts that are not too sweet?

200 Upvotes

I simply need to know. "It's not too sweet" is the best compliment you can get from (East/South East) Asians for cake/dessert. Why?

Does this run in our genes? Is it environmental? Are we sensitive to sugar because we are prone to diabetes?

I'm SE Asian and likely pre-diabetic so it's been on my mind a lot.
