Australians universally considered aboriginals in Alice Springs and Northern Territory as the origin of the crime, owing to the poverty, criminality, and the number of hospital patients because of alcohol abuse. In 2007,Australia government was actually banned on sale and consumption on alcohol(booze), and the expired time had met in 2022, making aboriginals themselves suggest that politicians legislate again to ban the alcohol.

But according to some researchers, the main problem is the poverty and marginalisation, resulted from low income and imperfect education.
