Rise of Australia

Chapter 72 To be rich, build roads first

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

Medical care, like education, is a major issue related to people's livelihood and conditions.Similarly, this is also 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 the six states. However, due to the lack of medical equipment and doctors, most hospitals can only accept ordinary patients, and cannot handle slightly difficult diseases." Minister of Health Bradford Dillman said with a wry smile.

The medical sector is one of the sectors with the least attention in Australia at present. In addition, Arthur has no additional investment, which has led to a worse situation for the medical sector. Even if a hospital is built, there are not enough doctors to work for the hospital. into normal operation.

"The medical profession is also added to our technical schools. The medical industry is also an important part of the development of Australia. 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 treatment is one of the problems that must be solved as soon as possible.This is not only related to the survival rate of newborn children in Australia, but also to the livelihood of all Australians.

"Yes, Your Highness." Bradford Dillman responded quickly with a look on his face.

"The plan to build hospitals can be temporarily stopped, and 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, this is the factor that can improve the medical environment in Australia." Arthur said.

Although the hospital's medical treatment can benefit more people, it also requires more medical talents to invest in it.

And for Australians, sometimes it's not that there is no hospital to see a doctor, but that there is no money to see a doctor.

Without solving the congenital problem of poverty, even if Australia is full of hospitals, it is impossible to solve the medical problem.

Compared with hospitals, the scale of clinics is very small, generally speaking, one doctor is enough.

And the cost of the clinic is lower than that of the hospital. Although it can't solve the larger intractable diseases, Australians generally don't have the money to see it, right?

"Yes, Your Highness." Bradford Dillman nodded as expected, and responded.

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

Judging from the current development of the Australian National University, it will take at least several years or even ten years of investment to hope to alleviate the shortage of medical talents.

Therefore, building small clinics is a more effective method.At least under the premise of talent vacancies, it is a more reliable choice than building a hospital.

"Continue to report!" Arthur signaled.

"Your Highness, in addition to the above, our public security environment, agricultural land, road construction and industrial development have also improved a lot. This is their summary report, please read it." Prime Minister Evan handed over some documents , said respectfully.

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

This is the case in Australia. After the unification was completed, the originally isolated states also started full economic and cultural exchanges, which also drove Australia's economic and other developments accordingly.

Arthur nodded.

He knows the situation of the Ministry of Public Security. With the rectification of the original police industry, the establishment of a new police station, and the training of excellent reserve police, it is only natural that the public security environment will improve.

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

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

"How many planting areas do we currently have? Can each immigrant be allocated a certain amount of land?" Arthur asked.

For immigrant countries like Australia, the most effective means of attracting immigrants is the allocation of land and real estate.

In addition to the vortex of war, the reason for the outbreak of immigration frenzy in Europe is also an important factor that the increasing population leads to the scarcity of land.

For a country like Australia with a very large land area and very few people, the most indispensable thing is land resources.

If more immigrants can be attracted by allocating land, it will definitely do more good than harm.

"Your Highness, at present, our new immigrants can be allocated about ten acres of land on average, but most of them are wasteland, which needs to be reclaimed by the immigrants themselves." Minister of Agriculture 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 land are uncultivated wasteland, which needs to be reclaimed by the immigrants themselves.

"We can improve the appropriateness of land distribution and give these new immigrants some assistance. The area of ​​agricultural land needs to continue to expand so that more people can be fed." Arthur nodded and said.

Australia's available arable land is relatively small compared to the total land area, but because Australia has more than 700 million square kilometers of land, the actual available arable land area is still a lot, and it has great development potential.

"Yes, Your Highness." Henry nodded in the same way and replied.

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

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

With the two talents of Benz and Diesel, the development of automobiles is bound to usher in very rapid changes.

Under such a premise, road construction in Australia must also be put on the agenda.It is impossible to let those unreliable cars run on dirt roads. Frequent problems may make those car owners cry.
