like in any global recession, tourism takes a hit. If however the world goes into a major economic depression, which is highly likely, tourism and other discretionary (luxuries) spending goes through the floor. Demand drops and this will of course impact on pricing. However as paddoboy alluded to, it is better to have some than none (tourism) Also there are many other benefits of creating an Oceania safe haven. One being the work force required in Agriculture in Australia. Many of such workers come from Oceania regions and provide their families back home with much needed dollars which helps maintain sovereign relationships and local economies.
Quite factual that, as I know many Fijians that did/do the same thing. And on top of that, with their natural talent for playing Rugby [League and Union] and the incredible money that is played to those good enough for the NRL competition, some of those so contracted to Sydney/Queensland clubs, are altering and benefiting entire Fijian villages.
Yesterday 2 cases in NSW and 1 in Victoria. Despite the bloody mindedness of the right wing sky news nonsense, Danial Andrews has persisted and shown the way. Lockdown restrictions have been now eased somewhat, and the likely South Pacific bubble looks a real goer, at least by December I hope! Fiji, here I come!! Again world wide air travel still seems way off Great job Daniel!!! It now appears that much of Europe, Ireland and Wales are deciding into going into forced lockdown to halt the incredible amount of rising cases.
There is not a hospital system in the world that will be able to cope with what can be expected in the UK, Europe by Christmas. As soon as the hospitals are over whelmed the death toll goes up hugely. People generally have difficulty comprehending why lock downs are so necessary, but as soon as the health professionals call it quits and stay at home I guess they will have to come to terms with reality. Too many have sacrificed their lives and families for the community and still we have wankers protesting about social distancing requirements.
I am reminded yet again that the one key issue the governments are not talking about is the issue of insurance and how difficult and expensive work place and entertainment venues will find it to insure against public liability, and work place safety. (both legally required in Australia) If the government can not instill confidence in the insurance industry then most places where people gather in groups will simply not open. Lockdowns or not is not the actual issue when it comes to economics, Insurance and potential litigation is. IMO
Havent read all the replies so not sure if anyone mentioned this But US has over 200 biowarfare labs in many diferent countries Why? Covid virus apeared shortly after Tramp declared Trade WAR on China,quite a coincidence Also its a common knowledge that US is the worlds greatest terrorist, you can conclude who is responsible for the Virus,yes
Interesting ,yet Tramp KNEW the virus is DEADLY and did nothing to advise people to wear protection like Chinese did Meanwhile World Health Organization declared world wide emergency ,how many countries took it seriously?
While on the subject of China HK is China teritory always was ,,so is Taiwan Destroying property kiling burning people alive is no democracy ,its US terorism promoted by CIA
the PRC has no claim to taiwan. rebel factions that don't knock off what they rebeled from don't get to claim what they weren't able to conquer
Taiwan is a republic of China https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan US has a tradition of interefering in internal afairs of many nations,for financial gains, properly caled stealing China never invaded atacked or bombed any other country like US did Remember Vietnam,Iraq,Venezuela,Yugoslavia,and many others,? China does the oposite, they build roads,bridges infrastructure helping poor nations to become richer,yes even US, many milions of Americans make good money in China Unfortunately US media spreads Fake news about China simply bc we cant compete and we need some enemy somewhere to justify spendin mo money building arms weapons etc Printing more money is unsastainable and increasin nation debt will be our downfall Chinese imperialism

Bet you didnt know that Tibet was ruled by Dalai lama who declared themselves living gods and lived in luxury by making poor people work as serfes,slaves and tortured maimed or kiled anyone oposing such.[/QUOTE] im familiar with the dalai lama, and the problems with their rule. you are only proving my point, you are literally defending the invasion and annexation of a sovereign country again as i tell your fellow fascist schmlezer the crimes of one does not negate the crimes of another. not to mention the chinese conflict with veitnam lasted longer than americas. the PROC has no valid claim to taiwan. it is however the sovereign territory of the ROC. nice moving goal posts. still doesn't change the fact they you did the whole bombing thing you claimed they didn't you mean other than the literal armed conflict you pretended didn't exist so you could lie and claim china is peaceful. nice racism. nice propaganda, they aren't helping in africa they want the resources there, also if you are going to call anyone uneducated perhaps learn how to spell. you only proved my point with this lazy bs ridden joke of a reply
