(Melbourne comprehensive) Australian Prime Minister Morrison pointed outIn Australia, the border will be reopened to international tourists soon. Congress will debate related topics this week.
Australian Minister of the Interior Andrews also said that after two years of blocking the border, Australia hopes to reopen as soon as possible for foreign tourists to visit, which will bring a transfer to the tourism industry that was severely frustrated by the crown disease.
Andrews said in an interview with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation yesterday that the government has not officially decided to re -open the border, but it is "very close" to make a decision.
A newspaper from Australia News Group quoted sources as saying that Australia may reopen the border within two or three weeks.
The Pioneer Sun also quoted anonymous government officials on Sunday that international tourists are expected to be allowed to enter the country at the end of this month. The federal government will announce the relevant date today.
Morrison did not explain the specific time to re -open the border, but it showed that the day was "not too far."
When he was questioned on Sunday, he pointed out that the first meeting of this year's parliament will be held on Monday, and the subject that reopen the border on international tourists will soon be on the agenda."We look forward to making a decision to open the border in the safest situation as soon as possible, and we welcome tourists to return to Australia again."
In order to prevent crown disease from spreading, Australia has closed the border since March 2020 until the border will be closed until March 2020, until the border will be closed until March 2020, until the border will be closed until March 2020, until the border will be closed until March 2020, until the border will be closed until March 2020, until the border will be closed until March 2020 untilIn recent months, the ease of epidemic situation and the national crown disease vaccination rate has reached the standard. It has only begun to reopen the border in stages, but only allows citizens and residents, technical immigration, international students, and specific seasonal employees to enter the country.
Although Omicor Rong, who is currently highly contagious, has continued to spread, the number of hospitalizations and deaths has remained stable, and the authorities have no intention of continuing to implement blockade measures.Morrison said last month that he hopes to open up the border before Easter.
Returning the border is essential for boosting Australia's economy.According to data from the Australian Tourism Administration, before the crown disease, the tourism industry created an annual income of more than $ 120 billion (about S $ 160 billion), and about 5 % of Australia's labor population engaged in tourism.
