    If you don't earn more then 300K a year in Australia you are poor.

    this is the downside of emigrating to oz.....start from low but eventually you'll find the job matches your profession.(Still - don't set your expectation too high, white collar jobs in OZ are generally less challenging & stimulating than back home). Upside - you have better work-life balance...

    Western Australia needs skilled migrants for mining boom

    Not everyone is in mining, gas or oil industry. For Aussies, Australia's job opportunities are limited so they moved to US/Europe, SG or HK. For Sinkies, they are discriminated in their own country so they moved overseas, Australia not neccessary provide the career opportunities they would...
