Australia Immigration & You

It is no secret that Australia is seeing a great rise in the number and the interest people have in immigrating to Australia.

Two factors, I believe, are heavily contributing to this current trend.

One; Australia needs to increase its population in order to fill gaps in the work force, especially in mining, construction, aging health care and service industries. This is to also in turn help improve the country's economy. These needs have created better chances and easier processes for immigration.

Two; Australia is a great place to live. The lifestyle, standard of living, opportunities, laws and rights and the climate all add up. In comparison to other countries Australia is very lucky, war and conflict doesn't seem to arrive on Australia's shores.

It's a tick in every box!

Now I am Australian, so I guess everything in this blog carries bias, but let me know your thoughts about Australia. Any negatives that you or a friend you know may have experienced. Or push some more positives.

For those considering immigrating to Australia this may be a great chance to ask questions.
