How about Moscow, Beijing, Taiwan, London ... Is there a valid comparison?

I didn't mean it to be part of an argument.
My post does say I thought it was of little value.
I was just adding some local colour to the mix.
If you ever get to watch Border Control, do so.
It's an Aussie programme, about people, things, boats, goods, things and pets and things coming into Australia.
Given that it has no land borders, they can be as strict as they like.
And they are.
Given that it has no land borders, smugglers will be as inventive as they can. And they are.
Obviously the programme can only show those they've caught (and the odd suspicious person who is cleared) but it does make the security look bloody efficient.
I prefer Animal Rescue (Aussie again) but it doesn't fit in this thread...
