What do you mean non-involvement. There is no such policy. Unless you mean
not having diplomatic or trade relations. Even then and with international
capital, Australia has a mission in Angola, a self-declared marxist state
under a civil war. BHP is there making money. Remember, Australia is not a
super power and hence, who cares in Africa if they are involved or not.

What I am concerned about is providing assistance to this overseas
government
without knowing if the Australian government recognises them or if the
Australian government has a policy of non-involvement.  Although complying
with
any Australian policy would only be a matter of choice and no enforcement
applicable, I would rather act within defined boundaries.
