- BTraditional customs from a person's home country are legally permitted in Australia even if they contradict local laws, provided they are practiced in private.
- CThe value of 'mateship' means that citizens should prioritize protecting their friends' cultural customs over reporting activities that violate the law.
Cevap
In Australia, while cultural diversity is celebrated, all individuals are required to follow Australian laws, and no cultural or traditional practice justifies illegal behavior.
The correct answer accurately states the fundamental Australian value that everyone must obey the law. While Australia respects and encourages cultural diversity, these practices must always stay within the legal framework of the country. No cultural background justifies breaking a law.
