- From the Film Australia Collection. Made by The Commonwealth Film Unit 1960. Directed by Neil Howe. This film makes a general survey of the Northern Territory of Australia and indicates its potential in regard to many already established industries. These include agriculture, mining, fisheries, cattle raising, pearling and the like. The Territory is still a land of many challenging problems; its greatest limiting factor being the lack of water. In recent years transportation has been improved and education approached with vision and imagination. Housing is also being developed. Two thirds of the Territory’s work force is in Government employ.
This is one of the most enjoyable NSFA films ive seen and ive watched a good deal of them so far
Thanks for letting us know Dave. Glad you enjoyed it.
But that DDT bath!!
Great video once again.
One of my favorite channels on YT
Thanks Offgrid. We appreciate the feedback.
yes, this is the NT I remember as a child in the 60s, no shoes, no shirt, no hat, no sunscreen... oh boy am I paying for it now
Looks great 👍 there. Soo clean and peaceful.
I was so grateful when my parents took me out of school for a term in 1982 and took us up the centre of Australia and down the East coast. My favourite part of the trip was the NT. This was before the main HWY was sealed and it was far less "touristy". Places like Mataranka Springs where totally unspoilt. Nowadays, they have concrete steps and hand-rails! People from the Southern states who have never been to the top end could not comprehend how different it is. It feels like a totally different country.
We are going to get it back all of it what the government has done along with corporations is theft plain and simple.
@@jerryscanas I totally agree. I had much respect for the Indigenous Rangers that showed me around the outback. I always felt like a guest in their country. I think it is terrible what companies such as Rio Tinto have done. I do not celebrate Australia day. Good luck with your fight.
@@timsmith854 Well if Australia had meaning I think Celebrating its day would have value.
@@timsmith854 we've also had a massive decrease in faith in Australia so that has played a part in our undoing as a nation
Love NFSA films this one reminded me of an amazing story book hell west and crooked great read on the Northern Territory
GREAT.....LOVE NORTH
I love this channel. Thanks so much for the uploads.
Glad you like them! Thanks for letting us know.

i love this one .... mining uranium .... no shirts, no breathing apparatus, virtually no PPE at all ..... you can see the tumors growing !!!!
And the DDT baths of the poor cows.
What a great land
Dipping the cattle with DDT! Nice one
Yup, thats how it was, thankgod it got banned.
l remember my mum spraying my head with mortein because l had lice. Thanks mum
There is still a lot of skeptics on the reasons why DDT got banned, and why we did not have a decent replacement.
@@emmao109 Arguably we should have improved it and not banned it simply removed the damaging chemicals in it and added new safer ones to make it safer.
I wonder how is the water level in the landscape now...
Salinity
We grew up on DDT sprayed crops and beef 😂😂
The aboriginal people in this did not have the vote and weren't counted in the census at that time.
Are u an aboriginal man?
Love the video HATE the music
DDT BBQ OMG
"real men" hahaha.. love it
Yeah as opposed to fake men LOL
@@SteveLittleLivesHere "LOL" say it all......and yes, FAKE MEN.
@@rowbearly6128 what constitutes a fake man?
@@Finn-cz7mv Well, a narcissistic, infantilized cretin who focuses on superficial distractions, who involves himself more in popular culture than reality, a man who refuses to engage in practical, positive action and who favors ease over dignity, for example.
@@rowbearly6128 and is this a universal definition or one you have conceived on a whim?
D.D.T. beef???
Ikr.
The Jury is still out on DDT there are many skeptics as to why it was actually banned.
Colonisers view of NT.Scavenging Imperialists at least
Developing a civilisation and economy is not scavenging imperialism. Your anglophobia is showing
@@dopaminedreams1122 Obviously been Colonized.It is scavenging on stolen unceded land.
@@kosmicstardust haha repeating the old unceded line. How could a group of hundreds of tribes who had no notoin of ownership even cede a land. And why does it matter, thats the history of every country on earth, at one point a culture conquers the others and sets up home. This isnt new, and we don't have to apologise more than we already have
