The report on the reform of the Australian army construction, jointly submitted by the Ministry of Defence, the Army Staff Headquarters and the Navy Staff Headquarters, has become the focus of discussion in the Australian Parliament.

As an immigration country, Australia's main source of soldiers relies on the recruitment system, and does not establish a compulsory military system in later generations and a volunteer system with a certain nature, which relies on recruitment and high living allowances, as well as the recruitment system of relevant policies, has both his advantages and his disadvantages, and the advantage is that it can absorb a large number of new immigrant youth to join the army.

For new immigrants, joining the army can not only get a high subsidy, but also get the right of permanent settlement in Australia, which is quite good, and the most important thing is that after the army retires, you can choose to be assigned to work in government units, that is, state-owned enterprises.

This was very attractive to many immigrants who were born into poor peasants, and in addition to that, the food treatment in the army was quite good.

As for the disadvantages of this recruitment system, which relies entirely on welfare and benefits, as the standard of living of the people improves, more local young people will not have any interest in joining the army, because they can get the same treatment from other places and the risk factor is much lower.

Therefore, the reform of the military service system submitted by the Ministry of National Defense and the Army General Staff Headquarters and the Navy General Staff Headquarters is to hope that the National Assembly will implement a combination of the compulsory military system and the volunteer military system, which can not only ensure the participation of aspiring young people, but also recruit compulsory soldiers in the future due to the shortage of soldiers.

The combination of the two military service systems will bring about a great change in Australia's military construction. From the point of view of the compulsory military system, all juveniles who have reached the age of 18 are obliged to serve in the army for two years, but in peacetime when the number of national troops remains at a normal number. The recruitment of conscripts will be much more relaxed.

In addition to promoting both military service systems throughout the country, the Department of Defense has recommended to Congress that new students in secondary schools and colleges across the country be militarized for two weeks each fall in order to develop students' resilience.

Military training is a regular training that many new students will carry out in many countries in later generations, especially in high schools and universities in China.

At present, there is no mandatory system of military training in schools across Australia. Rather, it is up to the person in charge of each school to decide, and if this proposal is passed, future secondary school students and college students will be subject to mandatory military training.

Congress has carefully considered this proposal. After soliciting the suggestions of teachers and responsible persons in schools across the country, it was approved, after all, military training can also bring a lot of benefits.

In order to demonstrate the democratic nature, we also solicited suggestions from some college students and middle schools in the school, and from the feedback we received, they were all quite in favor. With this investigation report. It is only natural that Congress will approve it.

The proposal for student military training is passed, then the reform of the military service system has become the focus of discussion, everyone still likes the current volunteer system very much, in fact, the reason for many people's hesitation is that once the compulsory military system is implemented side by side, it means that the descendants of the crossing may also be recruited into the army in the future.

After all, entering the army is dangerous, and from Australia's point of view, the next 20 to 30 years will inevitably be a period of foreign expansion and hegemony. This was the time when the first generation of descendants came of age, and it was inevitable to join the army at that time.

Everyone is selfish. Those who are engaged in clerical work and business management naturally do not want their children to do those dangerous things, and it doesn't matter if those dangerous things are left for others to do.

However, this idea is somewhat contrary to the concept of the army bosses cultivating aristocratic officers, according to the ideas of the army bosses, the future Australian officers, at least senior officers, should come from the descendants of the crossers.

If you want to let the descendants of the crossing crowd become officers, you must first serve in the military, if there is not even a compulsory military service system, it can be seen how many officers will come out of the collective in the future, it can be said that the army bosses are also heartbroken for the future development of the descendants of this collective, and some people are still thinking about their own little caution regardless of the interests of the whole, which makes them very angry and angry.

In order to carry out the reform of the two types of military service system, the Ministry of National Defense has begun a small reform without the approval of the National Assembly, and volunteers who have completed their service this year will remain in the military for one year. Because the army expansion plan adopted not long ago also gave them sufficient reasons.

The current situation of recruitment in the military is not ideal, and many immigrants will choose to work in factories or even construction companies when they have a choice, rather than the more dangerous military service.

Although military service can bring many benefits and benefits to oneself, after all, the risk is too high, and with the profound influence of the saying that a good son should not be a soldier since ancient times, immigrants are naturally reluctant to join the army.

Constrained by the unsatisfactory recruitment of the army expansion, the army bigwigs came up with such a combined method: As long as the number of volunteers who volunteer to join the army in the future is small, the compulsory military system can be activated that year, and all school-age youths throughout the country must enter the army to serve.

This kind of small action of the army is naturally seen by the congressmen and understood in their hearts what the reason is, but the compulsory military system has not been passed, so the army cannot achieve compulsory conscription throughout the country, and it can only be achieved by using small means in the case of retaining internal personnel.

Of course, for the sake of the implementation of this system, the military bosses, who had never dealt much with political personnel, actually began to have frequent private contacts with the personnel of various factions, and anyone could see that this was an attempt to persuade some people to support it.

The implementation of the conscription system does have certain benefits, at least President Zhou Aiguo agreed very much, attached great importance to this bill, and clearly expressed his support, this signal can be regarded as a clear instruction for those who have ideas.

In addition to Zhou Aiguo's support, other ministers such as Education Minister Yu Lihong also expressed their strong agreement with this bill, it can be said that the activities of the army bigwigs coming in were not in vain, at least they persuaded the support and affirmation of a considerable number of people, which is crucial for passing in the Congress.

As long as some of them are persuaded to support, the reform of the military service system will be considered a success, so the military bigwigs will not be slow to rebel against the homes of those parliamentarians every day. (To be continued......)
