    A friend of mine visited Australia and to his surprise there were no JW Carts on streets.

    Wonder if it was just a coincidence or is it due to media attention that ARC has created?

    Maybe the laws are different regarding carts on the sidewalks, etc., eh.

    That would be great if someone could get to the bottom of this.. If their not doing it because of the royal commission that would be telling to all.

    It could just mean that it's ineffective for the social conditions.

    I would imagine that if lots of crazy new-age religions have already done it and it's stigmatized by association that they would skip it.

    In the same way few other religions bother going house-to-house ... the JWs and Mormons have pretty much ruined that as an approach for others.

    Are there carts in Canada and England or any European country? If there are then maybe Australia has special conditions not conducive to carts. If there aren't any carts outside of the U.S. then maybe the Watchtower hasn't got around to it yet.

    There are carts in Europe and there has been carts in Oz. Maybe my friend was just in wrong places...

    This statement is on the www.jw.org

    As of March 2015, 165,390 carts have been supplied to congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses throughout the world. Thousands of stands, tables, and kiosks have also been acquired.
