Very nice if we can get a few more businesses open the unemployment will stay at around record lows. I’d say we have beaten the problem?
How about a Umart somewhere?
What we should do is get the people who left the regions back here. If the unemployment is fixed and we can offer them a future it would sure beat them struggling in the Capital Cities where apartments are now ~$750,000+ & basic Homes are over $1 million. Rents in the Capitals are also huge making saving extremely hard.
You can still afford to buy a home & raise a family in our region. Living here would save around $30,000PA repayments or you could pay off your home 2x as fast.
