Australia is a big market for international students from China and other parts of the world. Tourism is another sector which is necessary for the growth and economic prosperity of Australia. In 2016, more than 1.2 million Chinese tourist visited Australia. These are factors responsible for the growth of Australia which has been probably ignored by Professor Hamilton.
