Should the Australian Navy know the position of it's ships at all times?

What is that saying, once is a mistake twice is a coincidence, I read 5 times last night.

Do you think they went into Indonesian Waters on purpose?

Did they get caught out?

Is the apology believable?

Was it just an accident that it happened 5 times?

Well done to the Australian Navy for doing what you signed up to do and being allowed to do it

Pardon? Do you want to correct that? Or is that what happened? They were instructed to do this? Are you sure?

Excuse me, but this government is not "Australia", just because people do not like what this government is doing does not mean they hate their country.  On the contrary.  What exactly is all this protecting us from?  Handful of unfortunate people.  And they are not telling us what is happening; the bits that filter through is just a tip of the iceberg.

It's good to question the government from time to time 🙂 everyone seems to do it at some time or another

I'm sure that navy knows exactly where they are at all times.

Can someone please tell me why they are towing the boats back to Indonesia in the first place?

The boats may have come from there but the people on them didn't.

I know a lot of Indonesians who have tried living here legally and they could not wait to go home they love their country so why do they have to take what we send back?

When one of  our new ships  was on trial in USA before handover the gps com showed it to be 24 knots

off shore when it run aground on a beach.

These things are a little bigger than a weekend cruiser & they are not alowed to run over the little boats 

so they have to do a bit more than steer it by the screen.

They most likely stretch the point so as to go as far as they can before leaving the boats to fend for themselves.

I can see them having to open a paypal dispute with the Chinese seller they bought their navigation equipment from
