註釋In this world, there are those that make it happen, there are those who watch it happen and there are those who wonder what happened-Jim Cooper AM, founder of the Gulf Group of Companies. "Pushing The Boundaries" takes you on a journey through the competitive world of trucking transportation in some of the remotest and harsh conditions in the world. It shows what a dream, hard work and perseverance can achieve. From a tiny New Zealand town to Australia's Northern Territory and onto the global stage, the Cooper Family showed that innovation, risk and dedication to consistently evolve and disrupt the status quo that would ultimately transform how the Australian mining industry iron ore during the golden wave of China developing in the late 20th century. Along the way, there are many companies and enterprises bought, run and managed by the successful trio of Jim and Jenny Cooper and their son Jamie. Drawn on interviews with dozens of family members, former employees and associates, "Pushing The Boundaries" provides a history of the road transport industry in Remote Australia and how technology built on that experience would ultimately influence heavy vehicle configurations around the world. It's a story of success and what a lifetime of hard work can actually achieve and celebrates the growth of the Northern Territory as pioneering families took chances on big ideas that would ultimately pay off
