Description: Maurice Klein speaks with Janet Shay, an Iranian Australian actress, a graduate of N.I.D.A., Australia's most prestigious Performing Arts School, as well as a Performance graduate of the University of New England. With Janet's family having first hand, very hostile family experience back in Iran, due to the left-green Islamic alliance now cementing a hateful and detrimental presence in Australia raising serious concerns for Australia's future, as with her acting , Janet presents The J Perspective with passion, resilience and fortitude, very much determined to ventilate the issues to generate a positive impact for the future of Australia. Having made a new life in Australia, converting from Islam to being Christians, the Shay family journey and story is amazing , and I say this with all sincerity, I have interviewed  hundreds of wonderful guests on the radio, none better than this special person Janet Shay, a true blessing.
