As early as 50,000 years ago, a group of Aboriginal people first settled on the Australian mainland, and about 200 years ago, a large number of white Europeans migrated to Australia, which was the second time that humans migrated to Australia.

Around the beginning of the 17th century, Europeans first discovered Australia in search of gold and spices and drew nautical charts. The Dutch called this land New Netherland, but it was not until the late 18th century that Captain Cook set out from England for an expedition to the South Pacific, discovered eastern Australia, and occupied the east coast, beginning the history of Australia's great migration.

Soon after Captain Cook discovered Australia, the United States declared independence, forcing Britain to find another place to exile convicts, so a new prison was opened in Australia. The policy of exile of prisoners ceased in 1868, by which time convicts and ex-prisoners constituted one-ninth of the population, with the remainder being free colonisans and native Australians. By this time, Australia had been developed a large amount of land.

In 1850, gold was discovered in Australia, attracting thousands of gold prospectors.

It was only in the mid-19th century that Australian society began to understand the sense of nationalism, and by the early 20th century, Australia had developed into an urbanized country that formed the Commonwealth of Australia.

Today's Australia is the best politician. The immigrants are mainly from Europe and Asia, forming a unique multicultural character.

WA Premier Hobbit for Van Waiver. The arrival again was warmly welcomed, because of the successful issuance of shares of Fantesi Company, the company was able to form a second development boom in a short period of time, the economic development of the whole of Western Australia has been very significantly affected, and the number of employed workers has also increased by about 5,000 or so, as the company continues to expand, this number should be a large development.

Employment opportunities for 5,000 people in China. It's almost negligible, but for Western Australia, it's quite a feat.

"The entire state of Western Australia is probably the size of the whole of Australia. One-third, but the population is less than two million, of which there are almost 1.5 million people concentrated in the capital Perth, and the employment opportunities of 5,000 people are indeed not a small number compared to the sparsely populated state government, plus the employees who have been stationed before, there are more than 10,000 residents of Western Australia who currently work for the company. Fan Wuxian introduced to Shen Ying.

Shen Ying looked at the scenery outside the car window, as if she had entered a primeval forest. If it weren't for the fact that the road under her feet was indeed concrete, she would have thought that she had lost her way in the forest, because from time to time kangaroos jumped in the middle of the road, which made her feel a little excited.

"Look, it's like a koala over there!" Shen Ying descended. shouted from the car window, pointing to a koala on top of a eucalyptus tree on the opposite road.

Fan Wuxian smiled, "That. Things look fun, but they actually bite people, but the concept of animal protection here in Australia is very strong, and you better not provoke those small animals, otherwise you are likely to be deported. In the past, some people in China came to study here, and found that there were often pigeons in the yard, so they just caught a few to stew and drink. As a result, these pigeons were wild, the meat was relatively coarse and hard, and they could not be stewed for a long time, so they had to be thrown away. The neighbour found out about the incident and went to the police station to report it, only to arrest the man and impose two years in prison plus a fine of $10,000. ”

"This criminal law is indeed quite harsh." Shen Ying stuck out her tongue and said, "I don't know if it's illegal to step on an ant to death?" ”

"Then look at the kind of ant you stepped on to kill and is not protected." Fan replied with a smile.

Although Governor Hobbit expressed great enthusiasm for Fan Wu's arrival, Australians' habits are not the same as Chinese's habits after all, so he looked at this kind of thing lightly, but arranged for someone to accompany Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying to visit the state government, and gave them an explanation of the Australian political system throughout the process.

Fan Wuxian has already experienced this process before, so naturally he will not feel that there is anything new, but Shen Ying is still the first time to come to Australia, and he feels very new and interested in everything, fortunately, everyone's English level is good, and there is no obstacle to communication.

This time, the explanation for the two is still Yang Huiling, a Taiwanese woman who has been a tour guide for Fan Wuxian in Sydney before, and it has only been more than two months since Fan Wuxian came here last time.

Yang Huiling was also a little surprised to see Fan Wuxian come back so soon, but when she saw Shen Ying, who felt very fresh about everything, Yang Huiling couldn't help but envy this pair of golden boys and girls, it was a match made in heaven.

"Australia is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, and its political institutions and habits follow the tradition of the West, with a bicameral parliamentary system. The Senate has twelve seats per state, and half of the members are elected in a referendum every three years for six-year terms. The House of Representatives is elected by referendum on a state-by-state basis, with a three-year term of office and at least five representatives from each state. A party or multi-party coalition with a majority in the House of Representatives will form the Government, which will provide for the Prime Minister and the Ministers, who must be MPs. "The Cabinet is the main body of the government that formulates policy, it is presided over by the Prime Minister, and about half of the ministers are cabinet members. Cabinet meetings are held in secret and in an informal manner. Decisions of the Cabinet of Ministers have the force of law when they are approved by the Executive Council. The Executive Council is a procedural body chaired by the Governor. While all ministers are members of the Executive Council, only two or three ministers usually attend the meeting. ”

"Is the Governor General of Australia the Queen of England?" Shen Ying asked.

Yang Huiling shook her head and replied, "The Governor of Australia is the representative of Queen Elizabeth II, and his role is to mediate or make decisions when there is a serious disagreement between the parliament and the prime minister on major national issues and decisions must be made as soon as possible. In recent years, however, Australians have also tried to achieve an independent republic to save the cost of setting up a governor's house and paying for the annual royal tour of Australia. However, public surveys show that more Australians are more accustomed to the current system, believing that the current system is conducive to and restricts centralization and national stability. ”

The Governor General of Australia is the representative of the monarch of Australia in Australia, and under the current Australian and British law, Australia and the United Kingdom share a monarch who is resident in the United Kingdom. As such, the Governor General of Australia generally exercises the office of Head of State.

As the plenipotentiary representative of the monarch, the governor had great power in law. The constitution gives him the supreme executive power of the country. He was also the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, could make and cancel decrees, and had the power to appoint and dismiss parliament, ministers and prime ministers. However, in accordance with the traditional Westminster tradition in the United Kingdom, the Governor does not interfere with the administration and exercises his powers on the advice of the Prime Minister.

Similarly, de jure a governor is nominated by the prime minister and appointed by the monarch. But since Britain confirmed the independence of the Dominions in the thirties, the monarch has not rejected the nomination of Prime Minister of Australia. Similarly, in the matter of the appointment of the Governor, the monarch only follows the advice of the Australian Prime Minister, without considering the recommendations of the British Prime Minister and Parliament. In fact, the appointment and removal of the Governor General is in the hands of the Australian Prime Minister.

These jurisprudence and customary contradictions can sometimes lead to controversy. During the constitutional crisis of 1975, Governor John Murphy Kerr dismissed Edward on the grounds that the chancellor could not pass the budget through the Senate. The government of Whitlam as prime minister.

At that time, Queen Elizabeth II decided not to interfere on the grounds that Australia had become an independent state, with its governor as its head of state, and that the constitutional crisis had to be resolved by Australia itself.

John. Kerr's move has since been controversial. Opponents argue that, legally, the Governor should not dissolve a government that has majority support in the House of Representatives, as is customary in Westminster. Politically, opponents argue that an unelected governor should not have the power to dissolve a government elected by the people.

After listening to the introduction of this situation, Shen Ying felt that the political structure of foreigners was really a bit inexplicable, and they had to make it so complicated that they themselves were dizzy.

Fan Wuxian said, "Actually, you can't laugh at them too much, after all, they are also doing this to find a more perfect ** politics that can supervise each other, and they are not willing to concentrate power too much in the hands of one person." Isn't there such a sentence, absolute power leads to absolute **, although due to the personal factors of the ruler, the degree of this ** can be large or small, but as long as it is centralized politics, it is easy to breed. ”

"It sounds like this system doesn't fit our national conditions." Shen Ying said after hearing this.

Fan Wuxian smiled, "Well, that's right. ”

At present, the Australian Federation is divided into six states and two territories, and the country is divided into federal, state territory and local government**.

The Australian Parliament and Government are responsible for all matters of national interest, the six State Governments and State Legislatures complement the activities of the Federal Government, and the Northern Territory and the Australian Capital Territory are largely self-governing in a similar manner to the states.

The powers and responsibilities of local governments vary. In general, they are responsible for town planning, management of parks, recreation venues, swimming pools, public libraries and community centres, construction and maintenance of roads, streets and bridges, water, sewerage and drainage systems, public health and hygiene, building supervision, weights and measures and other regulations.

The Constitution provides that the jurisdiction of Australia is vested in the High Court of Australia and other courts established by the Australian Parliament. Parliament has established the Federal Court of Australia and the Family Court of Australia to deal with cases in a number of areas specifically provided for in the Federal Act. In addition, state courts are granted federal jurisdiction in certain areas. All states, the Capital Territory and the Northern Territory have their own court systems.

Australian law enforcement duties are performed by federal, state and northern territory police. Police officers independently uphold the laws of their state or region. But there is also a lot of formal and informal cooperation between them and between Governments. The Australian Federal Police and the National Fight Crime Agency are the main law enforcement agencies of the federal government.

After the three of them and the bodyguards walked around the state government for a while, they found a place to sit down.

The weather here, but at the hottest time, Yang Huiling kept fanning with a travel guide, and there was still sweat on her forehead, but the service staff of the state government saw that everyone was sweating beads on their faces, so they were very enthusiastic to bring a large bucket over, which contained a little cold ice cream, and invited everyone to taste it.

"Hehe, this is probably the ice cream consumed by the state government itself, everyone has tasted it." Yang Huiling said with a smile.

After eating the ice cream, she felt that the heat was gradually subsiding, and Shen Ying said to Fan Wuxi, "It's too hot here, if you want to go to the mining area, will the conditions be even worse?" ”

"Not necessarily, the mining area is in the north, about 2,000 kilometers away from here, and it must be much cooler." Fan replied.

"More than 2,000 kilometers?!" Shen Ying's eyes widened and said, "Australia is really vast and sparsely populated!" It's just that it's such a long distance that it's a long time to drive. ”

"Naturally, it's very slow, and we usually fly there." Yang Huiling interjected.

That is, in the afternoon, Fan Wuxian and his group of six took a small biplane and drove to the mining area for a walk, allowing Shen Ying to appreciate the primitive flood atmosphere of Australia and the grand scene of the mining area under development.

At dinner, Governor Hobbit and others came to visit, rubbed Fan Wuxian for a meal, and everyone chatted about all kinds of gossip during the banquet, and then Hobbit asked Fan Wuxian about buying the island, and then said very enviously, "The government has now ordered a ban on the continued sale of islands to private development, and the islands purchased by Mr. Fan have appreciated a lot at this time." ”

"If the governor likes it, I can give you an island." Fan Wuxian said with a smile.

“NO，NO，NO！” Hobbit hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I don't dare to ask for this!" It's going to kill you! ”

Hobbit is still thinking about winning the post of prime minister during the next general election, and if it is known that he is now openly accepting bribes from foreigners, he will be fired from his current position immediately, so what is there to talk about sustainable development?

In fact, Hobbit's interest in the development of the mine is very large, the key reason is that the development of this industrial chain is not only limited to the mine, but also provides tens of thousands of jobs in the direction of railway construction and port construction, and the related beneficiaries are countless.

It is conceivable that once the mine of Fantesi Company enters a period of stable development, the various ancillary industries that will follow will also be greatly developed, which is an important guarantee to ensure that Hobbit will achieve good results during his tenure as governor.

There are no pop-ups
