Australia to scour for skilled workers
The country has begun its most aggressive campaign to attract skilled workers since the great wave of post-World War Two immigration, when tens of thousands of Europeans and Britons were given free passage in the 1950s and 60s.
A nation on the fringe of Southeast Asia but built on waves of mostly European migration, Australia accepts 120,000 migrants a year, mostly skilled workers, but also people joining families already in the country and refugees.
Last year 80,000 skilled workers arrived, but a continuing shortage and an ageing population has spurred the government to launch an advertising campaign in Britain, the Netherlands, Germany and India to fill an extra 20,000 places in its skilled migration program.
"We really havent done this sort of aggressive recruiting since the 1950s and 60s," Immigration Department deputy secretary Abul Rizvi told Reuters.
The campaign will end in roadshows in London, Amsterdam, Berlin and the Indian city of Chennai, formerly known as Madras, where potential migrants will talk to Australian officials and employers and then put their applications on a fast track.
With unemployment currently at 28-year lows at 5.0 percent, many Australian companies have been struggling to find enough workers to fill job vacancies, particularly in the mining and building sectors.
Rizvi told Reuters that Australia has a strong demand for welders, carpenters, electricians and plumbers, as well as engineers, accountants, doctors and nurses.
On-line job agency Seek.com.au lists more than 3,100 vacancies for qualified tradesmen and women, more than 12,000 vacancies for a range of accounting jobs, almost 6,000 engineering jobs and more than 4,700 healthcare jobs.
"It is tough to get people. Weve had a chronic problem in terms of metallurgists, mining engineers and geologists since the mid 1990s," said Mitchell Hooke, chief executive of the Australian Minerals Council.
The Western Australian state Chamber of Minerals and Energy will take part in the roadshow in Chennai, where it hopes to recruit engineers, metallurgists and geologists to work in the states booming resource sector.
"The shortages are serious today and is likely to be serious for the next 10 years," said chamber director Reg Howard-Smith

Monday a special holiday for schools, govt offices only
Malacañan on Saturday announced that August 29, Monday, has been declared a special holiday in observance of National Heroes Day, which falls on a Sunday.
Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita said there will be no classes in all levels of public and private schools. Government offices will also have no work.
Private companies, on the other hand, are not included in the directive and will have work on that day, Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye clarified.
Ermita's directive corrected an earlier announcement by Bunye that Monday would be an ordinary working day.
The National Heroes Day is celebrated on the last Sunday of August every year.

Dick Gordon on One-on-One
with
Philippine Senator Richard Gordon
When American Forces left Subic Bay, and nature dumped lava and ash on the area with the eruption of Mount Pinatubo, hope was in short supply for most, except for the Mayor of Olongapo.
Now a Philippine Senator Richard Gordon shares his strategy for the transformation in Olongapo. Learn how the man who's been called, "the man who never sleeps" led white-collared volunteers and a community dependent on jobs and business opportunities from the American bases, to raise literally from the ashes, a new city where top multinationals investors
now park their money and companies.
The Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority Chairman who went on to serve in the Philippine Cabinet and now Senate, also shares with host Melvin Yong, just what the Philippines needs to tackle challenges such as the lack of investment and economic growth, the disenchantment of the Filipino middle class and the failure at transparency and good governance.
