AUSTRALIA |
|
It is situated between, and
isolated by, the Indian and Pacific Oceans, Australia has many
animals and plants, which are unique to the planet. The surface
geology is typically old and flat.
Australia has emerged as a popular destination for higher education
because of its strong educational infrastructure, a high quality
of life, and relatively lowers expenses.
Australian degrees are gaining increased acceptance in the global
arena, particularly in the Pacific rim countries.
A peaceful and relaxed atmosphere, together with the cosmopolitan
charisma of cities like Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide,
Tasmania – Australia could be the ideal destination for
you. |
|
|
| Climate |
| Nearly a third of Australia
is in the tropics and the rest is in the temperate zone. The
highlands and tablelands of Tasmania and the south eastern corner
of the mainland are the coldest areas. Summer is from December
to February; autumn from March to May; winter from June to August;
and spring from September to November. |
|
| Multiculturalism |
| The British influence
originating in Australia’s colonial origins has evolved
over two centuries into a dynamic multiculturalism with invaluable
contributions from migrants from all parts of the world.
Almost a quarter of today’s 18 million Australians were
born in another country. There are nearly one million Asian-born
Australians. About 2 per cent are of Aboriginal and Torres
Strait Islander descent. More than 100 different ethnic groups
are represented in Australia, making Australia one of the
most ethnically diversified countries in the world. |
|
| Religion |
|
Language |
| Australia is predominantly
a Christian country; however, all religions are represented
in the community. Devotees will find churches, mosques, temples
and synagogues located in most major cities. |
Although English is the official
language; a host of other languages are spoken in Australia.
|
|
| Culture |
Australia is rich in the arts.
There are eight professional orchestras and a national opera
company. Within Australia there are more than 1000 museums preserving
and displaying Australia’s diverse cultural heritage.
Australian films are winning international acclaim and many
Australian film directors, actors and technicians have been
acclaimed in Hollywood at the highest level.
Australian authors have received international recognition particularly
with the Booker Prize, won twice by Australians and with Patrick
White winning the Nobel Prize |
|
for literature. Novelists,
dramatists and poets are internationally accepted by their peers
as having made a substantial contribution to world literature.
Australians traditionally have provided strong support for theatre,
from regional amateur troupes to polished professional companies.
In music, Australia has developed a fertile environment that
supports a great range of musical tastes ranging from the most
avant-garde experimental to folk, from the youthful sounds of
chart-busting pop to the unique music of the
Aboriginal people.
Painting in Australia has a history that can not only be traced
back over forty thousand years of Aboriginal culture but also
is represented in the major museums and galleries of modern
and avant-garde art, worldwide. |
|
| Transport |
| Australia has an extensive
public transport system that includes trains, buses, tramways,
ferries, two major national airlines and a number of regional
airlines. Metropolitan areas are divided into zones and your
ticket type and cost depends on which zone you are going to
travel in and for how long. Tickets can be bought at train
stations, on buses and trams and at news agencies.
Tourist students may drive in Australia on a valid overseas
drivers licence but if the document is not in the English
language the visitor must carry a translation with the permit.
An international driving license is not sufficient by itself.
Metered taxicabs operate in all major cities and towns. You
will find taxi ranks at transport terminals, main hotels or
shopping centres or you can hail taxis in the street. A light
and sign on the roof indicates if a cab is vacant. There is
a minimum charge on hiring and then a charge per kilometer
travelled. Taxi drivers do not expect to be tipped.
