How easy do you think it would be, to get work that you are looking for, in Australia?

With the Australian government’s intention of boosting their economy, they have opened up 108,000 job positions for young, English speaking professionals who have skills in particular positions required in Australia, so there should be work available.

I understand that it can be hard for non-Australians though, to find work in Australia. Does this deter you from moving there?

No, it does not deter me. Moving to Australia and residing there has been my ambition for a very long time. So nobody and nothing will stop me from leaving Singapore and settling down in Australia for good.

What do you see would probably be your biggest challenge in Australia?

To make new friends. After having lived in Singapore for almost a decade, I will have to bid farewell to all my friends in Singapore.

But having said that, I doubt whether I will have any problems making new friends in Australia. I still keep in touch with my ex-classmates from an Australian school that I used to study at. Besides, most Australians are usually very friendly and outgoing.

How do you feel about living in a country like Australia, which has a different way of life and culture to Singapore?

Living in Australia will definitely be very entertaining, fun, laid-back and relaxing. As for living in Singapore, the working environment is extremely fast-paced and stressful. So after living in Australia for a decade, I will certainly have no problems adjusting to the lifestyle in Australia.

What efforts have you made so far, about living in Australia and finding work there?

I need to save money and be loaded with heaps of cash to migrate to Australia, but I haven’t made any efforts yet.

How does your family feel about you leaving Singapore?

Both my parents know for a long time already, that I want to leave Singapore. They understand that I will never be happy living here. My mother really knows that I love Australia very much and my father encourages me to leave Singapore as soon as possible – to be independent in Australia.
