    Gillard is very unpopular with Aussies (parang Gloria Arroyo natin but not corrupt)...
    Abbott's party is the obvious alternative kaso napaka-anti niya sa mga migrants naman

    I wemt to cabramatta last sunday... A western sydney suburb akala ko naka uwi ako ng pinas! Hahaha!! The place was filled with asians, trash on the streets, the park was full of people like full at 6 pm across the church... There were clothes hanging in the windows, no one stopped if you cross the street.. May 10 in 1 asian dvd store.. Hahaha!! I was in asia!

    And apparently at night, drug trading is still done in cabramatta. Pasaway talaga tong mga chinese and middle easterns! They give migrants a bad name!

    Ung father in law ng ate ko sad blacktown used to be a shady place 20 odd years ago..like open drug trading in the streets by the insik and arabo then the pinoys/ malaysians/indonesians/ indians mostly southeast / south asians started coming and that is when it started getting better kasi professional skilled migrants took over the place cause it was a cheap place to buy a starter home for young professionals but because of that nag improve ung blacktown to what it is today.

    I think australia wants to make it strict for migrants to come here kasi ung pangit na migrants end up on benefits and pasaway whereas a professional migrant contributes to the economy talaga though competes with them for employment.

    Agree with you. Kapag liberals ma regulate ng husto ang migration. Hihigpit lalo ang sistema ng immigration. Yung mga PR migrants na nandito look for work magkakaroon ng chance magkapaghanap ng trabaho na profession nila. Nakakalungkot kasi they give up everything sa kanilang bansa then pagdating dito hirap sila makahanap ng work at kung makahanap man sila hindi naman nila linya at maliit pa ang sahod, hindi sapat. Ang maganda dadami lalo ang infrastructure projects. Mga boat people mag-aalangan na pumunta dito. Malamang this coming election mananalo ang liberals. Kaya advise ko sa mga nagapply na mag migrant dito dali dalian nyo na at baka magbago ang sistema ng gobyerno sa October. Mas malaki ang epekto sa immigration una dyan ang 457 working visa. Kung magbabago man ang sistema lalo sa immigration sa July 2014 pa iimplement yun.

    oo nga parang magulo sa Cabramatta pag titingnan mo. teritoryo ng mga Vietnamese yun...hehehe! but actually, we love going there (sa shops malapit sa train station) but only to eat sa Viet restos at mamalengke ng konti.

    Oo sarap nung bread sa rotti praya bah yun?? Mocha butter bread.. :) ung yogurt shop, milk tea shop and vietnamese food authentic! Hahaha!!

    Pero if nasa melbourne ka sa cbd mismo multicultural a talaga pagkain... Whereas here in sydney predominantly european dishes except haymarket for chinese food.

    Big deal ang western suburb ng sydney for election...si jullia gillard nga nag stay ilang nights sa rooty hill kasi they need to win the western suburb council seats so campaign mode na yun.

    @icebreaker1928 I'd like to think Gillard's party is more open to migrants. Yun nga lang sobra siyang unpopular ngayon...What's scary about Abbott is that parang Romney yung plataporma nila...very conservative na maraming economic steps ang hihigpitan nila...probably kasama dun yung immigration guidelines huhu

    So Kevin has already conceded defeat to Tony.

    Ang kinatatakot ko lang dito kay Abbott is that he is not very migrant-friendly. Napanood ko isang interview niya. i had this impression na he was very conservative. Siya yung tipong maghihigpit ng laws. Inayawan na niya ang equality of marriage for homosexuals. This doesn't sit well with me. If he can't be sympathetic to them, I wonder how he can be sympathetic to us.

    And he's had history of cutting thousands of jobs to cut back on national spending. May mga kwento in the rumour-mill na pati penalty rates matatanggal.

    Ewan ko ba, I can't muster any sort of support for the new prime minister.

    21 Dec 2012 - 457 lodged
    7 Jan 2013 - medical finalised
    8 Jan 2013 - visa approved
