A truly Great Australian, was a very powerful and influential businessman, he would never have allowed the BS governance of the past 15 - 20 years to go unchecked.

I'm an Englishman who loves Kerry Packer and what he stands for, we need more of these sorts of people in the world. Well done Kerry.

He was a,tower of a business man and even more so as a generous human being who helped his fellow man.

I've met a few famous people in my life... But the day I met Mr Packer will always remain at the top of the list.

Careful now. When you start thinking that businessmen make good politicians. You're getting the logic backward. That's how you get a Trump. Shitty politicians probably make great business men and women. But a good man or woman, can do well in business, better in politics. And terrible in morality

I collect this Australia Idle's bio video into the YT library. For all videos in YT world, this one is the most completed part. Honestly speaking, still can't find anyone, no matter the average joe or politician, who has the same parallel level of gift of gib like him with a sense of high-class humor in talking. Guess he must learn from that Geelong private school rather than from his parents. VERY IMPRESSIVE ENOUGH TO GIVE MY HIGHEST REVERENCE TO THIS AUSTRALIA IDLE ............................

His father would call him boofhead along with sending him to Cranbrook. Not only that but after the attacks by japanese midget submarines Kerry was sent to live in bowral in with an aunt. Contracting polio and pneumatic fever spending nine months in hospital before moving to Canberra for two years to recuperate during that time his parents never visited him.

Kerry was born into wealth but that does not mean he had an easy up bringing or was happy. The reason he all the flash stuff after making the deal selling channel nine in 1987 was to show people he was ten times his father.
