    Nearly 100 dream holidays ruined—what really happened when this Aussie agency went bust?

    Company Law in Australia is a joke, it is a magnet for every scammer and cowboy ready to fleece people. I was a builder who lost a lot of money when HIH collapsed, but I'm sure Malcolm Turnbull and his mates all walked out with lots of money. No wonder the man is worth two hundred million.
