This is a very good news for people planning to try their luck to Australia and also a good news for migrants wannabe...

The study of 250 Australian and 180 New Zealand
businesses found that almost 80 per cent of Aussie employers planned to boost wages in line with inflation over the year.

Across the Tasman, just over half of Kiwi businesses would boost pay packets, according to the poll conducted by accounting firm Grant Thornton.

A partner at Grant Thornton New Zealand, Peter Sherwin, said the country "might be on the cusp of another brain drain".

"It is not a good sign to see the skilled younger people leave the country," he said.


Not only will this trigger a skills shortage in New Zealand, but the country will suffer as the result of reduced tax payments.

NZ has recently increased the minimum wage and Immigration has always accepted residency applications since it believes that it has a "skills shortage" despite the recession.

It's just puzzling that the public and private sector are not on the same page regarding skill shortages and immigration.

It should be noted that Australian salaries are increased because of the projected rise in inflation. Migrants who are discerning enough to read between the lines would realize that salaries are not raised but merely adjusted to meet the rising cost of goods and services.

Natch, there goes my 52 inch TV...
