Of course he is all set to defend Halal slaughter and live export to Muslim animal torture houses.
After all it is all about money, isn’t it?
Australia's live export industry has suspended cattle shipments to three Indonesian slaughterhouses in what is seen as a bid to pre-empt a program on ABC TV.
Cameron Hall, the chief executive of LiveCorp, the live export industry's research and marketing organisation, says the footage shows "unacceptable and unnecessary" practices.
"Cruelty is not an everyday occurrence in the Indonesian marketplace," he said. (source)
Mr Hall, just for the record - cruelty is an integral part of Halal slaughter as Allah loves blood and some torture inflicted on animals before the slaughter pleases him to no end.
Allah loves animal slaughter. He has a great thirst for animal blood. Allah even suggests torturing an animal before a Muslim slaughters it Islamically. Here are a few ahadith to gauge Allah’s love to inflict cruelty to domestic animals.
Blood of animals is very dear to Allah…(Sunaan ibn Majah, 4.3126)
Yearly slaughtering of an animal is compulsory… (Sunaan ibn Majah, 4.3125)
Garland a goat before slaughtering it… (Sunaan ibn Majah, 4.3096)
Torture a camel before slaughtering it… (Sunaan ibn Majah, 4.3097)
Ride on the animal before slaughtering it… (Sunaan ibn Majah, 4.3103, 3104)
Garland the sacrificial camel or the cow with two sandals about its neck and brand it by causing blood to flow from its side…(Malik’s Muwatta, 20.57.191) (source)

Just a few observations here:
How often does the word HALAL appear in the article?
The magic word Islam is also not mentioned to ensure that our Muslim neighbour (Indonesia) doesn’t get offended (as we know Muslims are very sensitive souls).
It also becomes apparent why criticism of Islam is being suppressed by the rich and powerful who make money (a lot of it) by dealing and wheeling with various Muslims states.
In fact these businesses are in most cases indirectly subsidized by the taxpayer dollar.
For example the figure quoted in the article is probably less than the total aide given to Indonesia under all various and false pretences.
Who benefits?

Australians celebrate and revere Anzac Day on April 25th each year in remembrance of our brave soldiers who fought in two great world wars to secure our freedom. Every Australian identifies with the slogan “lest we forget” and in services held around the country people reflect on the battles and men who died to secure our freedom. Yet across the world in France, there is one remarkable battle which helped form the Europe we know today and allowed the development of civilization based on Judeo Christian principles. This one famous battle has become known as the battle of Tours and effectively stopped the Muslim advance into Europe. After the death of Mohammed in 632AD, Muslim armies exploded out of the Arabian peninsula to conquer much of the Middle East, expanding across north Africa. From there they crossed into Spain in 711AD and eventually controlled much of al-Andalus by 715AD. It was the victory at Tours by Charles Martel that stemmed the tide and eventually the Muslim marauders were expelled from Spain in 1492 when the last outpost at Granada fell to King Ferdinand of Spain. 
Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj was born, lived, fought and won battles against religious and social oppression in the 17th century Bharat or India. He was a shining star in the Indian firmament and is renowned as a champion of the downtrodden and depressed masses. He was and continues to be an icon for the classes and masses alike and is seen as a rallying point for peasants oppressed by foreign rulers, Pathans and Moghuls alike. Sexually exploited women found in Shivaji Raje a protector, a benefactor and flocked to his Hindavi Swaraj to find solace and feel liberated under his saffron flag. 
Perhaps some readers might be interested to know that January 28 is considered a feast day among Catholics – actually 2 feast days are celebrated on the same day – one is of ST Thomas Aquinas, the great medieval theologian and philosopher who adapted Aristotle to the western Judeo-Christian worldview. . It is also the feast day of a lesser known person – St Peter Nolasco, the great ransomer of captives from the Muslims.
How often in conversation with a Muslim, do they quote Spain as the crowning achievement of Islam, where Muslims, Jews and Christians lived in harmony for about 800 years?
Why do Muslims insist that Jerusalem is their Holy City?
There is a very strongly entrenched view among majority of Westerners today that the three main monotheistic religions Judaism, Christianity and Islam share one common God and therefore despite the obvious differences, the core foundation of these three religions is the same.
