But residents told the Australian government they worry about the impact on relations with China and possible sexual assaults, according to social and economic studies published by the Australian defense department Thursday.

I think the greater danger would be the possibility of sexual assault BY the 'Ladies' of Darwin.
VERY hot and sticky in Darwin!

You know what they say about American soldiers - oversexed, overpaid, and over here. They will retort that the locals (Brits) are undersexed, underpaid, and under Eisenhower.
