The Rise of Australia

Chapter 72 If you want to be rich, build roads first

"How is the situation in the medical sector? How many hospitals were built in the past year?" Arthur then asked.

Medical care, like education, is a major matter related to people's livelihood and sentiments. Likewise, this is one of the important conditions for immigrants to choose their destination.

After all, no one wants to live in a place where education and medical care are very backward. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your family and future generations.

"Your Highness, so far, we have built a hospital in each of six states. However, due to the lack of medical equipment and doctors, most hospitals can only accept ordinary patients and cannot handle slightly more difficult diseases." Medical Minister Bradford Dillman said with a wry smile.

The medical sector is one of the sectors that receives the least attention in Australia. In addition, Arthur has no additional investment, which has led to the medical sector facing a worse situation. Even if a hospital is built, there are not enough doctors to put in the work to keep the hospital. Enter normal operating status.

"Add medical majors to our technical schools. The medical industry is also an important part of Australia's development. We must also ensure that there are enough doctors in major hospitals in Australia to meet the medical needs of Australians. In addition, the pace of attracting talents from Europe cannot be stopped. The medical department can apply for funds and cooperate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to attract some medical talents from major European countries, especially the United Kingdom and Germany, to join us." Arthur After thinking for a while, he spoke.

Medical care is one of the issues that must be addressed as quickly as possible. This is not only related to the survival rate of newborn children in Australia, but also to the livelihood issues of all Australians.

"Yes, Your Highness." Bradford Dillman finally responded with some expression.

"The plan to build hospitals can be temporarily stopped. Having one hospital in each state is enough for us for the time being. I hope that the next work of the Ministry of Health can be invested in the construction of small clinics. I hope that in every city Seeing some small clinics is what will improve the medical environment in Australia," Arthur said.

Although hospital medical care can benefit more people, it also requires more medical talents to invest in it.

And for Australians, sometimes it’s not that there are no hospitals to see a doctor, but that there is no money to see a doctor.

If the innate problem of poverty cannot be solved, even if there are hospitals all over Australia, it is impossible to solve the medical problem.

Compared with hospitals, clinics are very small, and generally one doctor is enough.

And the cost of a clinic is less than that of a hospital. Although it can't solve more difficult and complicated diseases, Australians generally don't have the money to go see them, right?

"Yes, Your Highness." Bradford Dillman nodded in anticipation and responded.

If we want to completely improve the medical environment, in addition to attracting a large number of medical talents from Europe, Australia must also be able to train some medical talents every year.

Judging from the current development of Australian national universities, it will take at least several years or even ten years of investment to hope to alleviate the problem of insufficient medical talents.

Therefore, building small clinics is a more effective method. At least if there is a vacancy of talent, it is a more reliable option than building a hospital.

"Continue to report!" Arthur signaled.

"Your Highness, in addition to the above, our security environment, agricultural land, road construction and industrial development have also been greatly improved. This is their summary report, please take a look." Prime Minister Evan handed over some information , said respectfully.

When a country is unified from a divided state, its economy and various constructions will also usher in vigorous development.

This is the case in Australia. After the reunification, the originally isolated states also began full economic and cultural exchanges, which accordingly promoted Australia's economic and other development.

Arthur nodded.

He knew the situation in the Ministry of Public Security. With the rectification of the original police industry, the establishment of new police stations, and the training of excellent reserve police officers, it was natural that the security environment would improve.

In addition to these, the unification of the country and the improvement of the government are also one of the important factors for the improvement of public security conditions.

Chaos will breed darkness. Once the country is unified, power is re-centralized in the government, and new policies are promulgated, darkness can only shrink in the corner.

"How much is our current planting area? Can each immigrant be allocated a certain amount of land?" Arthur asked.

For an immigration country like Australia, the most effective way to attract immigrants is to allocate land and real estate.

The reason why Europe broke out in the immigration frenzy was that, in addition to falling into the vortex of war, the scarcity of land caused by the increasing population was also an important factor.

For a country like Australia, which is very vast and has very few people, the most indispensable thing is land resources.

If more immigrants can be attracted by allocating land, it will definitely have more advantages than disadvantages.

"Your Highness, our new immigrants can currently be evenly allocated about ten acres of land, but most of it is wasteland and needs to be reclaimed by the immigrants themselves." Agriculture Minister Henris said.

The small population also leads to a disadvantage, that is, even if there is a large amount of land area that can be allocated to immigrants, due to the lack of population, many of the allocated lands will be uncultivated wasteland, which needs to be reclaimed by the immigrants themselves.

"We can improve the distribution of land appropriately and at the same time provide certain assistance to these new immigrants. The area of ​​agricultural land needs to continue to expand so that it can feed more people." Arthur nodded and said.

The area of ​​available arable land in Australia is very small compared to the total land area. However, because Australia has more than 7 million square kilometers of land, the actual area of ​​available arable land is still very large, and it also has great development potential.

"Yes, Your Highness." Henris also nodded and replied.

"How is our road construction going? What are the plans for roads and railways?" Arthur looked at the Minister of Transportation and Communications, Conlet, and asked.

As the saying goes, if you want to be rich, build roads first. The development of transportation also determines the speed of economic and industrial development to a large extent.

With the talents of Benz and Diesel, the development of automobiles will surely undergo very rapid changes.

Under this premise, road construction in Australia must also be put on the agenda. You can't let unreliable cars run on dirt roads. Frequent problems may make those car owners cry looking at the cars.
