It’s hard for a city which looks like this to consider itself lucky, but compared to the dire predictions of the last few days, this is nowhere near as bad as it could have been. Brisbane was prepared for the worst, but as the clock ticked down to the 4:00 am high tide, forecasts were revised downwards. And though thousands of homes and businesses are flooded, many more people who watched over their homes nervously through the night found that they have avoided the nightmare scenario.

"We were basically just watching the level rise. And then probably about 11:00 o’clock I got a couple of hours of sleep. I haven’t slept for the days, and then we came out at just before 4:00, about 3:30. And we united at the scene and that was going back down again, so then everyone is incredibly relieved."

"That is our swimming pool just down there, that’s quite a large swimming pool that had a, yeah, a big canopy over it, and then a pontoon with a pile bind in it, arrived on the other side, and over about an hour and a half, just pushed it and took it, and just smashed it."

Even though the homes were spared, they have work to do because of what was washed up in their doorstep, a speedboat and a mooring that was attached to. No one knows where it has come from. A television set floats among rubbish, clogging another apartment car park.

To give you an idea of the power of the floodwater and what’s been carrying downstream. That’s a heavy steel cage full of gas bottles and it's found itself washed up marooned in the middle of a suburban street.

It’s the nature of Brisbane’s undulating terrain which is adjacent to the river that some streets are meters deep in filthy water while properties nearby are completely untouched. Queensland’s premier reflected on the battering her state has endured in recent weeks and said the rebuilding would be akin to post-war reconstruction.

“As we weep for what we have lost, and as we grieve for family and friends, and we confront the challenge that is before us, I want us to remember who we are-- we are Queenslanders, we are the people that breed tough north of the border.”

The water police are dealing with a massive though temporary increase in their jurisdiction, and they’re checking on those who are stranded in their homes. One man drowned as he checked his flooded property. But the murky water which covers so much of this state also conceals more bodies. The human as well as the economic cost of this disaster is still being calculated.

It’s hard for a city which looks like this to consider itself lucky, but compared to the dark perditions of the last few days, this is nowhere near as bad as it could have been. Brisbane was prepared for the worst, but as the clock ticked down to the 4 am high tide, forecasts were revised downwards, and there’re thousands of homes and businesses are flooded, many more people who watched over their homes nervously through the night found that they are awarded the nightmare scenario.  

We are basically just watching the level rise. And then probably about live in a clock I like a couple of hours of sleep, hadn’t sleep for a few days, and then we came out at just before 4, about 3:30. And we were right at the scene and this seemed back down again, so everybody seemed increditably relieved.

That is a swimming pool just down there, that’s quite a large swimming pool, right ahead a big tantpy Iowa, and then a pontoon with a pile bind in it, arrived on the other side, and over about nine and half, just pushed it and threw it, and then just smashed it.

If though the homes were disappeared, they have work to do because of what was washed up in their doorstep, a speedboat and a mooring it was attached to no one knows where it’s come from. A television set floats among rubbish, clogging an apartment car park.

To give you an idea of the power of the flood water and what’s been carrying downstream. That’s a heavy steel cage full of gas bottles and it found itself washed up marooned in the middle of a suburban street.

It’s the nature of Brisbane’s undulating terrain which is adjacent to the river, the southern streets are metres deep in filthy water while properties nearby are completely untouched. Queensland’s premier afflicted on the battering her status in June during recent weeks, and said the rebuilding would be akin to post-war reconstruction.

As we weep for what we have lost, and as we grieve for families and friends, and we confront the challenge that is before us, I want us to remember who we are, we are Queenslanders, we are the people that we breed tough north of the border.

The water police are dealing with a massive though temporarily increasing their jurisdiction, and they’re the checking on those who are restricted in their homes, one man drowned as he checked his flooded property. But the murky water which covers so much of this state also conceals more bodies. And human as well as the economic cost of this disaster is still being calculated.

This week it was expected that the goverment was going to make some sort of major policy decisions and make an anouncement on those to combat high inflation but only say that really did not happen. What did happen is that government did announce a few measures, for example,
they're going continue to ban the exports of onions which were particularly high in the last few weeks. They are going to take charge of perchase? more commodities, more central commodities, like ** and cooking oil. Uh, really they say that they are going to go after quaters or the middle man that are may be trying to manipulate the market. But as a whole ** saying that those are a kind of manner ajustmiss that probably won't have a big afight? on the inflation numbers. And as you mentioned, food inflation-the really the big deal here. Food inflation up higher than any other major Asian economy-here and India, are up about 16%, more than 16% in 2010. And as you might've imagined, ** now really affects the everyday person and especially of course the poor. There are hundreds of millions of poor in this country and when those food prices go up like that, it really really has a deep deep affet on these families. We've been able to talk to some of the families in the markets who were saying things like we're just going to buy less because we simply can't afford to buy what we did, you know, for example, last year. So this is really having affect on my country; could certainly have an affect on the government-the government watching it closely. But right now even this passed month in December, the numbers of inflation higher than expected. Andrew?
Um, it's just on the broad of issue to that point, Sarah. How well India's efforts to tackle inflation impact on the on the broadary ** economic growth 'cause it has been so strong.
It has been strong and will still be strong. However, the World Bank is now predicting that the GDP will come down a bit from what is expected to be about 9.5 percent and an amazing number for GDP growth. A down to around 8.4 and that mostly do to these inflationary numbers and rising inflation that government really needs to get a handle on that, certainly for the people of this country but also for India *.

It's hard for a city which looks like this to consider itself lucky. But compare to the dull predictions of the last few days, this is nowhere nearer as bad as it could have been. Brisban was prepared for the worst, but as the clock ticked down to 4am high tide, forecasts were revised downwards.

Even though their homes disappeared, they have work to do because what was washed in their doorstep, a speed boat and mooring that was attached to. No one knows where it's come from. A television floats among rubbish, clogging with another appartment car park. To give you an idea of the power of the flood water and what's been carrying in downstream, lets have a heavy steel cage full of gas bottles, and its found itself washed up, moored in the middle of a suburdan street.
It’s the nature of Brisbane’s undulating terrain which is adjacent to the river. There are some streets are miters deepen in filthy water where property nearby are completely untouched. Queensland premier reflected on the battling her status enjoyed in recent weeks, and said the rebuilding will be a keen to post war construction.
As we weep for what we have lost and as we grieve for family and friends and we confront the challenge that is before us. I want us to remember who we are. We are queenlands. We are the people that we breed tough north of the border.
