I’ve really come to admire the logical, effective and practical criteria system used as by these Aussies in their immigration pursuit of happy immigrants. And now, I thought I’d share a social recognition initiative that really warmed my heart …

In Darling Harbour the Australians have an immigration Welcome Wall setup for all families who have come to Australia, with their names engraved on a copper metal sheet. Located at the Australian Maritime Museum, the 100 metre bronze plaque actually has 25 000 names already inscribed on it. Now, that’s a warm welcome to foreigners from abroad – wow to the Aussies and a definite thumbs up from me!

So, once we, at New World Immigration, have helped you achieve your lifelong dream of immigrating to this magnificent country, please send us a photo with your name inscribed on this famous wall. Twice a year there is a ceremony held to unveil new names of families who have settled in Australia and on this occasion, touching stories are shared of family’s struggles and hopes for a new life and how they ended up in Australia…

Is this not an indication of how humanity should react to total strangers from a foreign country  compared, for instance, to countries with such cruel Xenophobic tendencies  toward their foreign fellow human beings…I suppose the difference is an enlightened  1^st world thinking pattern vs that of an en-darkened 3^rd world…
