Bilal Mukhtar's travelogue to "The Edge of the World".
A passionate writer, reader, and explorer, Bilal Mukhtar has visited many unique Australian locations often hidden from the view of most locals. He explains that the remote Gardner Point in Tasmania inspired the title of this travelogue. He describes it as an isolated spot with no signs of settlement for miles.
Bilal explains that beyond this region, the land ends and the world's longest stretch of uninterrupted ocean begins, extending to Argentina. There is no landmass in between, which is why this place is also known as "The Edge of the World".

Labor minister Stephen Dawson's jet makes "emergency landing" in Geraldton
A government jet carrying the Regional Development Minister has had to make an emergency landing in Geraldton after circling and burning fuel. Labor minister Stephen Dawson, as well as a staffer and crew, were on board the Hawker 850-XP flying from Perth to Carnarvon. It was due to land in the Gascoyne town at 9am. However, something went wrong during the trip and the plane was diverted to Geraldton for an "emergency landing". It circled the ocean off Carnarvon before diverting to Geraldton, almost 500 kilometres south, where it did several circles over the regional city before landing safely two hours late. "We had firefighters on stand-by but they weren't required. I don't know much more than that," Emergency Services Minister Paul Papalia said. "It's a frightening event no doubt, so it's good to know they're all alright. "I imagine there's been some damage to the aircraft, because it was not a conventional landing. "I think they were there for sometime burning fuel in advance of the landing."
