The international courier market is well served with private enterprise businesses. There seems to be no sense in our Government owned Australia Post joining a postal consortium to compete with them in the express courier space as covered yesterday in the Sydney Morning Herald.
I continue to be astounded at how Australia Post is able to fly under the radar on issues like this. The government ought to sell off all but the essential services side of their operation. The continued government ownership makes for an uneven playing field and businesses like mine suffer as a result.
