Laws in Australia

I'll be arriving in July this year and I will be staying in Perth. But I have the citizenship so everything is fine. Thanks for your help for the other issue

Thank you really much for your info but you didnt metion the age to work is it legal to work if your 16 and i have the citizenship. Oh and dont worry about the smoking question, and one last thing what did you mean when you said "here are my two cents on your question" so the people you know at are young age ? 16-17 years old

I am actually not sure about the legal working age, but I would assume that anyone over 13 can work in any job just as long as the employer is satisfied that the employee meets all the requirements of the job. So, if you are 16 to 17 years old it should not be a problem. But do check with the Aussie immigration website (www.immi.gov.au) to be entirely sure. Just for the records, I work as a pharmacist and I have two junior pharmacy assistants working with me, one aged 15 and another aged 16. Anyway, the phrase "two cents" basically means "my personal opinions/ideas; you may find it used more commonly in Western countries, including Australia. Lastly, I am in my mid-20s, and most people I know are around that age range. I don't know many 16-17 year old teenagers apart from the 2 junior pharmacy assistants I mentioned earlier.

Thank you really really much, you really helped me :D

As per other MyLot discussions on the specific topic, you will find very rarely do Australians attack any Asian Immigrants. More often than not, it's between two or more groups of immigrants who bring their old problems over here with them & we get the blame for what goes on, which is also blown up by your media & falsely reported to you. Of course, there are murderers & bullies around, but they do not necessarily target Asians. Remember Ivan Mallat? He only targetted British backpackers, but today he's safely locked up. Australia is a very safe country for any tourists compared to many others in the region. The European occupation of Australia happened in a similar way to that in the US & many other countries. There was nothing monsterously unique about what happened here & it was on a very much smaller scale. The British in charge of the whole operation really had the highest ideals & wanted a peaceful co-existance from the very beginning rather than domination & annihillation. This has been well-documented from the beginning. Unfortunately, due to the mentality of some landowners, including mostly convicts pardoned, a number of them banded together with the intention of systematically ridding the land of Aboriginal people & pulled strings to force legislation on the matter. This was particularly bad in Tasmania where they wanted no Aboriginal people at all. You are better off hearing the stories from the people themselves, currently being aired on National Indiginous Television, free to air, digital, rather than making assumptions from hearsay, second-hand scraps of information & media bias. One final point is that natives here are treated much better by our governments at all levels, including extremely generous financial benefits for a very long period of our history, than any other natives in any country in the world. Just like any other country, we will determine who comes into our country & the manner in which they come. It is no place for queue-jumpers & criminals to cry "not fair" when they are asked to wait in camps after illegally trying to enter the country ahead of others who have gone through the normal legal processes.
