Very RICH country is Australia.
Hungary – the Big 6 been “put on notice” previously – need to look at the Functionality – the way Superannuation is operated in Australia.
AGAIN – look into the Massive FUNDS held by Members /Contributors – workers,employers and Government – that will be there – when they Retire.
Superannuation – in its numerous positives – releases from Governments the leval of monies they have to pay under a – Retired Pension Fund.
Superannuation – look at the Australian Model – maybe it could work – or could be MADE to work – for the current and Future workforce in Hungary.
Just take the time and look at what Australian Dollars are held by its Members – in – SUPERANNUATION Funds.
It will ASTOUND you – and it Grows – Grows and Grows.
If there is one country that China has greatly contributed to the Wealth of a country – it is Australia.
Export of Iron Ore to China and Coal – but Iron Ore – has made Australia “stand out” globally even through these Challenging Times – as an Economy – that has been “mildly scared” – from the “presence” of this ongoing novel coronavirus.
Superannuation – look at the HELD Funds Total – by its Members – Workers in Australia – all for THEM – when they Retire.
Australia is a Rich Country – agree.
This delights me – the growing Relationship – Hungary & Australia.
Trust its not Belated but the way the Economy of Australia continues to perform, in this Global Crisis – bought on by this on-going novel corona virus – is a Miracle.
The balance sheet of Australia – clearly HIGHLIGHTS – that Australia owns MORE of the World than the World owns of Australia.
The Prime Minister of Hungary – the Prime Minister of Australia – may wear different coloured underwear ha ha – but at the end of the day – TRUST – the need of TRUST – must be a driving developing Factor – to BUILD the opportunistic postion that exists – bringing Hungary & Australia – To-gether.
Australians love Hungarians and this – on the bible – I know is FACT.
I have not heard a Hungarian say bad words about Australians.
Lets seal this RELATIONSHIP – build on it make it a show piece to Europe and the World.
Prime Minister – Victor Orban – the visionary he is – please build on this Hungary-Australian relationship.
Australians have massive disposable income to spend on travel and love to travel which inter-faced on growing trading and “other” relationships – we in Hungary can be Big Winners.
Lets build and Grow it Hungary – with a “Miracle” story that continues to be – that “land from down-under” – Australia.
