'Dynamic' Asia remains fundamentally strong: Australia AFP
SYDNEY — Growth in Asia may suffer because of events in Europe and the United States but the "dynamic" region, led by China, remains fundamentally strong, Australian Treasurer Wayne Swan said on Tuesday.
Fear has gripped investors in the Asia-Pacific since the unprecedented downgrade of United States debt by Standard & Poor's sent shock waves through markets already roiled by Europe's debt crisis.
The turmoil continued unabated Tuesday with Asian stocks plunging further, deepening their already sharp losses.
In spite of the market battering, Swan -- who oversaw the only advanced Western nation to weather the global downturn without going into recession -- said he was confident the region was well placed to ride out fresh storms.
"I wake up every day and thank my lucky stars that I'm a finance minister in Australia, in the Asia-Pacific," he told ABC radio.
"Because what we've seen in recent years is a shifting of the guard from West to East in the global economy and we are located in that part of the global economy that is growing strongly."

URGENT!! PLEASE HELP ME!! How can I get debt free in Australia?
My ex husband ran up $5000 in bills and left me. I only earn $500 a week and the repayments on the debts are higher than I earn. I really need to find a way to get debt free quickly. I don't really want to declare bankruptcy though. I want to pay them off but I just can't afford it, so if anyone can tell me a way to get a debt consolidation loan or even anything to help me. I'M DESPERATE PLEASE HELP ME QUICKLY!!!!!
Call all of them and work out a payment plan and try to get your interest lowered or stopped.
Then, make the minimum payments on every one of them. On the lowest dollar value, put all your extra effort toward paying it off. Once it is paid off, then roll that extra money to the next largest balance. Continue this snowball until all your debts are paid off.
You probably need to cut your expenses back to the bare minimum. Get rid of cable, cell phones, internet, etc. Lower your electric bill, gas bill, water bill, etc. Don't eat at a restaurant until your debts are under control. Take a sandwich for lunch. Cancel the gym membership.
Try to increase your income by getting a second job. If you have a car with payments, get rid of it, and buy a good dependable used car for CASH.
Go to the library and get "The Total Money Makeover". Read it and follow it carefully.
DON'T do debt consolidation. It just moves your debt around. It rolls high interest items AND LOW interest items into the same loan at a mid-range interest rate. It might lower your monthly payments, but that means it will take even LONGER to get out of debt. It also frees up all your lines of credit so you can simply run them up again! Finally, you often have to pay a loan origination fee.

Dave also suggests that you might send a letter to each of your creditors explaining that you are trying to get debt free, you cannot pay all of the balance, but would like to settle on an amount with them that you can pay. He says that you would be surprised how often the credit companies will take some of the money instead of the zero they would get if you would declare bankruptcy.

Unlike bankruptcy, in which debts are cancelled and your credit rating collapses completely, debt consolidation loans are essentially a type of refinancing, where several-->old loans are replaced with a new one that has more favorable terms. Your loan consultant will negotiate with creditors on your behalf, so you’ll no longer have to deal with harassing phone calls and daily mail.
