According to:
http://alghazzali.org/events/update
Australian Ulama have decided to accept sighting report from Darwin.
Al-Ghazzali Centre disagrees with the sighting report on the basis of opposing scientific and jurisprudential facts.
But according to a majority of Australian ‘Ulama’, 1st of Ramadhan commences on Monday 1st Of September.
Ramadhan Kareem.
Even though it disagrees with the sighting, it acknowledges that according to a majority of Australian ‘Ulama’, 1st of Ramadhan commences on Monday 1st Of September NOT Tuesday the 2nd of September.
Furthermore, Taraweeh Prayer took place in Perth Mosque in the city today (Sunday night). Which confirms that Monday is the fist of Ramadan according to Perth Mosque.
Also, http://moonsighting.com/1429rmd.html reported that the official start is Monday 1st of September according to the Islamic center in Canberra.
Ramadan Kareem to everyone 
and may Allah accept your fasting.

I take it that the al ghazali center disputes the sighting in Darwin as not conformin to the rigours of scientific criteria and that of juridical rulings.
so al ghazali sticks to 2nd September, 2008.
and that no sighting is reported in Australia.
Tq. Malaysian. waiting for Indonesia reports under ICOP or MCW or rukyatul hilal.
