Immigration to Australian Capital Territory Jumps
Almost 1,400 new migrants have been granted their Australian visas and are now trying their luck at the Australian Capital Territory. This is in response to the state’s aggressive campaign to bring in more skilled and professional migrants to combat the labor shortage.
As reported by ABC News Online, Acting ACT Chief Minister Katy Gallagher says “the city can handle the growth as the Government’s Live in Canberra campaign starts to pay dividends.”
This exodus of skilled migrants is the highest in a decade. And while Canberra is still experiencing severe housing and rental problems, this hasn’t deterred people from wanting to live and migrate to Australia.
For the past three months, real estate in Australia has been bleak. Economist Simon Tennent from the Housing Industry Association cites that the country is about 25,000 dwellings short, with the rental market the biggest sufferer. Canberra is up about two-and-a-half per cent over the last three months.
But the ACT Government declares Canberra can accommodate the growing number of overseas migrants. If anything, this Australian immigration is a welcome addition not just to the state’s workforce but to the overall community as well.
“We’ve got a lot of housing coming onto the market soon,” Chief Minister Gallagher said.
True enough, as housing steadily mends itself, migration to Canberra gets a lot easier. Again, quoting from ABC News Online, “a Canberra migration agent says it is easier to migrate to the ACT than anywhere else in Australia. We get a sponsorship in a month or two months’ time, whereas in other states, it takes nearly six months to get a sponsorship.”
Overall, these figures mean a win-win situation for both the state government and all skilled and professional migrants. Indeed, immigration to Australia has never seen better times such as now. And hopefully the trend will continue in the years to come.

Abc $7.79 The first sixteen years of his life had been colorful and complicated. There had been easy times but there were difficult ones as well but all were integral stages in life. Now author Kevin Y. Lu shares the insights to his life as an American Born Chinese in his newly published memoir ABC. In eleven briefly written vignettes the author encapsulated the interesting moments of his first sixteen years. Engaging thoughtful and candid these quick glimpses of his life allow readers to also see the momentous milestones that led to his maturation. He describes how depressed he was in "Broke at Age Three" when his mother taught him the value and importance of money; how he felt after "Cutting risk" when his mother encouraged him only six years old at that time to use real cooking knives instead of just plastic knives; how dejected he was when his mother confiscated his Gameboy because he was unintentionally manipulating her trust; how wronged he felt when his teacher didn"t appreciate his cleverly written "Trump"s Play"; and how prescient he was when pondering the significance of awards; and how incorrect his original thoughts were about the divine power teachers have over their students. He turns to a more serious tone as he relates his work experience in the business world through real estate; and finally his international job experience which allowed him to understand the reasons for the differences between America"s and Australia"s economy. These and more await readers as they get to know the author through the pages of ABC. From simple childhood adventures to involvement in serious business the life of this Asian American has been far more complex than even he had thought. |
