JAPAN BAILS OUT AUSTRALIA Australia is approximately 20 to 21 times larger in total land area than Japan. Australia possesses significantly greater energy resources than Japan, acting as a major energy exporter to Japan, which is highly energy-insecure and depends on imports for most of its energy needs. Australia is a top global exporter of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) and coal, while Japan relies on Australia for approximately 43% of its LNG and 66% of its coal imports. Japan holds approximately 254 days of oil reserves, comprising around 470 million barrels across national, private, and joint reserves. This massive stockpile is among the world's largest, designed to secure energy supply during crises, with recent plans to release 45 days' worth of reserves to combat disruption. Australia holds roughly 29 to 39 days of fuel, depending on the type, with recent figures indicating approximately 39 days of petrol, 29–30 days of diesel, and 29–30 days of jet fuel. This is significantly below the 90-day requirement set by the International Energy Agency, prompting the government to use emergency stockpiles. Now tiny Japan is bailing out Australia, a country 20 to 21 times larger, with significantly greater energy resources. LET. THAT. SINK. IN. 🤡🎪🇦🇺
