After WWII the Australian govt faced a real threat by communists.A few countries close to each other (USSR,China and Korea) were already communist controlled. During this time,the Australian govt inforced 2 policies,these were, 1.To support countries in the fight against communists expansion. and 2.To join organisations that could provide mutural suport against the spread of communsim.Australia also had a policy which was "forward defence" this meant to stop the problem before it hit Australian shores.
