Scientology organisations in Australasia:
text listing

This page endeavours to list all Scientology outposts in areas covered by AOSH ANZO.

WIS78 (Chapter 10) states that Scientology first came to Australia in 1951, to New Zealand in 1952, to Japan in 1965 and to the Philippines in 1975.

[ Sydney | Canberra | Melbourne | Brisbane | Adelaide | Perth | New Zealand | Taiwan | Japan | Philippines | Malaysia ]

• S20CR: Scientology: Twentieth Century Religion, 1972 paperback; corporate author the Church of Scientology of California (published at Saint Hill, East Grinstead, England)
  
• WIS78: What Is Scientology?, 1978 hardback edition (ISBN 0 88404 061 5 or 87 7336 028 7)

• COSRECI (Church of Scientology Religious Education College, Inc.) is the South Australian non-profit corporation that owns the UK orgs. It was apparently set up this way because CoS in Australia is tax-exempt, whereas CoS in the UK is not.

Sydney

• Street maps of where to find Sydney orgs may be viewed by looking up the Org in question in the online White Pages and clicking on 'Map' when you get the listing (Telstra has licenced the UBD street maps - if you wanted, you could click your way through the entire metropolitan area ... verrry slooowly).
