Whilst this attack was a terrible thing to have happened and should not have happened, will someone in Toursim/Police take some responsibility and please advise, tourists that Cairns is not a safe place to walk around alone, especially after dark, especially at 1.30am.
This assault could have been avoided if this information was out there.
Whilst I appreciate the fact that Toursim organisations do not want Cairns to be known as an unsafe destination, the continued assaults, robberies and one murder of a Japanese woman in the last 10 years, mean that Cairns is indeed, just that, UNSAFE and something more needs to be done to ensure everyone's safety not just holiday makers!
