Just read a notice in the buyers club that it has been suspended because of the Australian government stopping imports from Bangladesh because of the war on terror (cited below).
Two questions: Firstly, I understood that some DAAs were coming from China and India, so why should the whole club club be suspended?
Secondly, it is clear that if the suspension is actually for the above reasons, then it is obvious that the Australian government is suffering from some serious psychiatric issues, possibly including delusions, psychosis, and fragmentation of its personality. If you or any relatives have close connections with the government, perhaps it might be worthwhile someone recommending the latter to a good doctor or counsellor, or else some kind of psychological intervention unit.
Mental illness should not be stigmatised, so if the worse turns out to be true, we should stand behind the government and its family as they seek medical assistance at this difficult time. Who knows, perhaps it is genetic, or perhaps it is a result of substance abuse, but if the government is expressing its rage and confusion by lashing out at uninvolved parties, someone really needs to step in before it does some real damage to itself or any innocent bystanders.
Here's hoping that things will turn out for the best.
Relevant post:
"Currently we are experiencing supply and shipping issues with product coming from Bangladesh so we are temporarily suspending the Buyer's Club pending resolution of these. One of these issues relates to the Australian government blocking all imports from Bangladesh, apparently as part of the war on terror. Access via the REDEMPTION eTrials remains open. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience. No existing orders will be affected."
[Please correct me if I have misunderstood the post or I am responding to an out-of-date statement, but i am simply taking things as I read them on this site. The buyers club page had disappeared for a while and the greyed-out date is from last August, so it is not clear to me what has been going on, having bought from the club on that page last December.]
