May-2001 $47,793 4.12%
May-2002 $50,253 5.15%

May-2005 $58,583 6.64%
May-2006 $59,873 2.20%
May-2007 $62,894 5.05%
May-2008 $65,686 4.44%
May-2009 $69,493 5.79%
May-2010 $73,148 5.26%
Anyone know the last two average pay rises? Looks incredible though, when you think what the average pay rise has been in the UK, over the last 10 years or more, the wage gap has really widened according to the figures.

Infrastructure projects getting delayed or cancelled all over Australia
All engineering colsultancies in QLD and WA making redundancies, AECOM, Calibre, Arup, Cardno. Aurecon going to 4 day week. Consultancies feeling it now, in 18-24 months time it will be the contractors doing it tough
The EPCM market is feeling the impact of all this, and feeling it bad. Expect lots of job losses. Expect the Govt to receive tens of billions less in taxes.
said it before, Australia is years behind Western Europe in everything, even it's recession

Government struggling to keep its promise about a budget surplus:
Australians expected to spend more at Christmas this year:
Neither of these articles claim the economy is struggling.
Treasurer Wayne Swan says significant savings are needed to offset further revenue writedowns for the federal government to deliver a budget surplus in 2012/13.
He says challenges from the high Australian dollar and a change in consumer behaviour are having an impact on the local economy and hence the federal budget.

But Australian National Retailers Association chief executive Margy Osmond said on sales figures for the year to September, local retailers were expecting Christmas spending to be slightly higher than last year.
"It's not fabulous but I think that there is a certain sensation amongst retailers that given the fact that people have been very cautious and saving their money and minimising their credit card charges that we we may see a little bit of up tick in discretionary spend this Christmas," she said.
