I'm pretty sure it's going to be more than two or three years. It's been going on since the 1960s and I don't think the current military government has done anything to resolve the grievances.

At least people will feel safe going to Swampy, as the car searches at the car park entrances are very thorough.

When you open the boot of your car they search all the areas that are not taken up with locked suitcases.

Obviously a terrorist would never think of hiding a bomb in a locked suitcase, knowing that it will never be searched.

 

Well done lads, keep up the good work.

No it is not.

It leads people to believe that credible action is taking place and therefore their safety is assured.

Any terrorist (and I mean any) could easily put an IED into a locked suitcase and drive through the security search, knowing that the suitcase will not even be checked.

Yes I know that if a terrorist wanted to hide a bomb in the car it could be done in such a way that it would be very hard to detect but to effectively hide the bomb would limit the size of the explosive.

Currently a terrorist could easily pack 2 large suitcases with a major quantity of explosives without a cat in hell's chance of being detected, do you understand how much damage that could cause?

The current system at the airport car park makes it easy for a terrorist to carry out his work and is no deterrent at all.

 

So no, it is not better than nothing.
