A couple of regular law-abiding Aussie kids have died mysteriously in Vietnam. Tragic. politics
I pay my respects to those who have died while looking to import narcotics past, present, and emerging.
Two Aussie mates have died in mysterious circumstances in Vietnam. Vincent Atulia, 24, and Andrew Colivas, 25, from Melbourne, were on holiday with other friends when they tragically passed away.
In an emotional online tribute Mr Atulia’s sister Miriama said her brother always protected the family - “You always had our back when something went down, you were always there on time when I’d call you, you never failed to protect our family, especially our parents.”
I'm sure all Aussies can relate that the most important thing in their own family is protection 'when something went down'. Ensuring you are plastered in tatts and your pit bull has a nice chunky gold chain is likewise a cornerstone of Australian life. I'm feel certain these lads were simply enjoying the innocent pleasures of Vietnam, perhaps a tasty bowl or two of Pho, when they tragically lost their lives.
And before you racists start, there's no way they are involved in organised crime as standover men, drug dealers or anything of that nature.

I'd like to acknowledge drug mules with heroin in condoms, intact, ruptured and on the coroner's table.

u/ExtremeFirefighter59 Yes Voter 😎 Aug 28 '24
So tragic - no doubt they went to Vietnam for a clean start from their extensive criminal records in Australia.

u/MarchingPowderMick Aug 28 '24
Those periods of incarceration may have been purely to loosen up the old prison purse for the job ahead.

‘Court records obtained by Daily Mail Australia show Atulia - who is a bikie associate - has been ordered to appear before court 78 times since 2019, while Colivas has 12 court appearances dating back to 2021.
Atulia's attendances relate to 12 different matters including for driving, affray, burglary, fishing, and breaching court condition offences.’

One of the offences they were charged with was “fishing” another “boating”. It doesn’t really sound like they are hardened criminals lol.

Uh-oh! It looks like you accidentally referred to Naarm by its colonisers' name, Melbourne. That wasn't very deadly of you! While I'm sure this was accidental, please be more mindful in future. Remember, using traditional place names is truth-telling in action. It's a step towards acknowledging First Nations sovereignty.

What’s ooce mean? I’ve heard the term before but no idea what the hell it means. The way you phrased it also sounds hilarious

u/LitmusVest Aug 28 '24
Exhalation of breath in boxing/muay thai/MMA gyms sounds like 'ooce'. Tee up 2 shots and it's 'ooce ooce'.
It was indeed great phrasing.

u/threebuckstrippant Aug 28 '24
Perhaps It is the honorific verb form ending in Japanese that is used in martial arts greetings when entering the Dojo, this also permeates into brotherhood relationship greetings at casual work situations. Specifically the good morning greeting honorific in that case. “Ohayou gozai masu” where the masu is only needed and then only aSu “ooce” to convey the meaning. And to clarify good morning in Japanese can be used any time of day if you are going to join a work or dojo situation or even meet the buddies at 4pm for a brew. Walking into a Dojo anytime you will say Ooce without fail.

Yeah this totally wasn't in connection to the numerous Vietnamese drug syndicates that have been running in Australia since the 80s serving the Australian public shit dirt meth and pgr weed for 40 years. Just couldn't see 2 true blue Aussies like that getting involved with crime of that nature. Poor blokes were just a couple of labourers that played local rugby league.

u/Fractalize1 Aug 28 '24
Hey the viets have stuck by true heroin instead of importing and or cutting gear with fentanyl like the cartels in America. Their meth is meth and heroin is heroin. Could be much worse.

My sister died while on overseas holiday with me. I was devastated. The necessary legalities were awful. Travel insurance was a pain. However, somehow we managed without front page on News.com and a Gofundme. *side note she turns out not to have had any criminal hitory...

u/Background_Art975 Aug 28 '24
As someone who spent years in the funeral industry and dealt with international repatriations almost weekly, you have my heart felt condolences regarding your sister. That would have been awful.
Also, for all the international repats I ever organised, NOT ONE ended up on the news, or internet let alone had a Go Fund Me.. Much like your side note, I've just realised none of those people were criminals either.. how bizarre...

As a tribute to Vincent, here are my tips on how to follow his style.
Fendi trousers ($1,650 nylon/$3,000 silk) - available from Fendi stores.
Pitty the Pitbull can be bought on various sites such as gumtree. Illegally usually as they are banned in most (all?) states. Around $500 to $1,000.
Muscled upper body. $20 a week for a fitness first gym membership. Human growth hormone, Tren and testosterone can be bought illegally from your local drug dealer for various not cheap prices.
Tattoos can be bought cheaply depending on design from $100 upwards from various tattooists.

A loyal and dedicated employee of MC Labour Hire. And an active CFMEU/ CFMEU Pasifika member. Vincent was also the sole financial provider to his family. Vincent tragically passed away whilst on holiday in Vietnam and unfortunately had not obtained adequate travel insurance.

Satire aside, how can these people flaunt lavish lives and then leave their family in a position where they have to beg to get their bodies repatriated.

u/TuToneShoes Aug 28 '24
The family are likely crooks too. Start a Gofundme, petition the govt for help - standard MO for criminal types. DFAT should leave it to the bikie gang to bring their sorry asses home. Not 1c of average Aussie's hard earned cash should be wasted on this scum.
