Do any of you know about Australian Pashtuns.

hey guys guess what,
we have a history in australia aswell, we are said to be the second ppl to come to australia fter the british.
unfortunately most of them were killed by different eethnic groups here who came after us.
turks and english ppl are the main group involved in the extinction of Pashtuns in here.

but luckly there is still few families who still follow Islam and their tradiitional way of life, but they cant speak Pashto properly.

Leave it to us to spread the seed :halo: and conquer.

Journey: Adelaide - Alice Springs

The Ghan. It’s an odd name for a train but in Australian history it is a living legend. For it is the ultimate journey to the heart of the continent.

A hundred and fifty years ago, the first camels were imported along with their handlers from Afghanistan and, in true Australian style, we soon shortened their name to ‘Ghan’. The Ghan train derives its name from these early pioneers and its emblem of an Afghan on a camel is in recognition of their efforts in opening up the harsh interior to the rest of Australia.

Early explorers and later the telegraph linesmen used camels, perfectly adapted for travelling long distances through the hot, inhospitable interior, to blaze a permanent trail into Central Australia. Today, you can make this journey with creature comforts our forbears would never have imagined. Boarding The Ghan in Adelaide for Alice Springs, you’ll experience one of the most fascinating great train journeys of the world. You’ll marvel at the spectacular colours of the outback, the spinifex plains and salt pans of the vast interior and the rugged MacDonnell Ranges on this epic adventure to the heartland of Australia. Alice Springs is the ideal base from which to explore the wonders of the Red Centre, such as Palm Valley, Ayers Rock/ Uluru, The Olgas/ Kata Tjuta and King’s Canyon.

Just type Ghan in yahoo or google.
