Really? So we're supposed to not complain about an attack on our very society because things are bad in Asia? It's a con, a guilt trip. How dare us minions complain!
I do like one of the online comments about it:
The tweet prompted an immediate backlash with one user tweeting “Translation: Aussie battlers should take a glimpse at LNP model for Australia's future”. Read moreNot to mention fighting words from St Vincents charity:

Dr Falzon said the public response to the budget reflected a deep feeling of injustice over a budget that “hurts and humiliates” people they care about: young people, older people, people with a disability, single mums and struggling families.
He added the budget was “deeply offensive” to Australians who were fighting a daily battle to make ends meet and survive.
“This budget rips the guts out of what remains of a fair and egalitarian Australia,” Dr Falzon said.
“But, as we can see from the strength of the response to it, now is the time not to watch and weep but rather to stand and fight.

He's received a death threat over it. Certainly don't agree with that, although it is an indication of the level of hatred towards this gov and it's budget:
The anonymous email warns Mr Christensen that MPs in Asian countries are assassinated and is accompanied by a photo of a man whose head has been blown off.
"Just remember arsewipe, those Asian countries also have a high number of MP (sic) that are assassinated. Aussies have GUNS.. Just remember that!," the email said. "You have just become a MARK!" Read more
