100% there is more required than just military and I wish there was more self reliance as that is a prime weakness right there. At least you have refineries because in SA they import diesel and petrol as final products because the 4 refineries we once had are no longer in service. If someone blocked the ports the country would come to a stand still within 4 weeks.

Its crazy. Even if you have a refinery, you still need the raw crude to make the fuel. According to a google search, Australia imports 83% of crude. So, in a situation where that import stream no longer exists, only a fifth of the mobility would be reasonably possible.
Pretty crazy. People need to walk more :D
