A JOBS PLAN FOR ALL VICTORIANS
Feb 6, 2012
Victoria is moving into uncertain economic times, and to make sure companies can continue providing the jobs that Victorians need, it’s important the Baillieu Government starts doing the hard work to keep our economy moving.
Victoria is moving into uncertain economic times, and to make sure companies can continue providing the jobs that Victorians need, it’s important the Baillieu Government starts doing the hard work to keep our economy moving.
I have been visiting both small and big business listening to concerns and suggestions on how governments can assist and provide greater levels of support to Victorian businesses and their employees.
Whether its small business owners at Dandenong’s Little India Precinct in Dandenong to multi-national companies in Melbourne’s CBD, Victoria’s multicultural community plays an integral role in shaping our economy.
There’s nothing more important to families than a job, but every time you pick up a newspaper or turn on the radio or television there are more reports of workers being made redundant and businesses.
Through strong planning, industry support and a capital investment program, the former state Labor government helped Victoria become the job creation engine of Australia.
Despite the effects of the Global Financial Crisis, more than 100,000 jobs were created in our state in 2009 to 2010.
I understand there are national and international factors impacting the economy, but here in Victoria, the State Government has a special responsibility to support jobs and promote investment in Victoria.
One of the hardest things for any migrant population is to find regular and secure employment, particularly in times of economic uncertainty.
In Victoria there is a great need for the government to release a jobs plan and outline to both employers and employees what plans it has to manage the state’s economy and create jobs.

Add A CommentWhen Mr Baillieu decided not to ceferrenpe the Greens, I wrote to him to congratulate him on that good move. I also told him that I was not happy that he had voted to support Maxine Morand's evil abortion legislation. Maxine Morand is now gone!I also wrote to Mr Brumby to ask him to choose blessing. I told him that I strongly objected to his financing of a homosexual lobby and scrutiny group with our tax dollars. Mr Brumby did not choose blessing!I mentioned in my letters to both leaders that recent reforms in relation to equal opportunity legislation as it affects Christian schools, churches and organisations, had helped turn Victoria into the State of Evil. The VEOHRC Gestapo will now have the right to enter Christian organisations repealed. The VEOHRC is not to be trusted!I fully endorse the sentiments expressed in the above media release. Principles are much more important than where the leaders decide to direct our money.Christian believers should sound clear prophetic voices against the evil tide and in favour of righteousness.
