In a somewhat important development, Rupert Murdoch—the world renowned Australia-born media magnate has reportedly urged Canberra to turn into the globe’s most diverse nation in view of the unbelievable political advantage the same would fetch. Rupert Murdoch added that the nation may emerge as a BIG economic power in case it maintained its capitalist and industrialist culture; enhanced immigration; and positioned itself to gain from the ‘disruption’ brought about by the world economy via innovation.
For those who came in late, he is a global immigrant himself even while his place of birth is Down Under, he made a significant chunk of his fortune in Britain, and presently he resides in the US, having gained the nation’s citizenship way back in 1985 to make it possible for him to possess nation’s television stations. Murdoch further said that immigration would assist Down Under flourish, adding the countries which guide the century will be highly successful at drawing & retaining talent.
He continued that the Kangaroo Land has already left the US behind as a country of aliens. He added that one thinks of the latter as an immigrant country – and truly so. However, the proportion of the overseas-born therein is only close-to 12%. In Australia, the same stands at 24%.
An unbelievable competitive benefit – Murdoch
He stressed that the same was a hard-to-believe competitive gain, adding a nation as diminutive as Australia will more and more depend on trade. The media czar further said that the more the people of Down Under have with links with other areas of the globe, the better is its gain when it requests trade associations with the said countries.
