Answer 15

Will stay fastest growing region until 2023-2027

Will record trade and current account surpluses in 2024-2026

Local authorities will allow the current to appreciate against the US dollar due to concerns on manipulation

This means as it continues to get richer as it continues to grow - it will also have a stronger currency so that Tasmanian education will be even cheaper for them

Locally - significant growing Vietnamese community

(Ive been part of helping the Chinese community grow here.- can leverage those learnings for Vietnam)

Question 16

Vietnam risks

Answer 16

Lack of traction - study Melbourne have opened an office via its strategy

State Growth not doing enough need to lobby - that means briefing up on the value of IE to Tasmania in DECYP and having a clear and well articulated strategy including a communications strategy - it means engaging with embassy with providers

Thawing relations

Huge huge pent up demand

There will be a renewal of people wanting to move capital offshore and seek foreign residency as well as education outcomes - that had dropped off before COVID but recent events have reversed that trend - protests

Worlds second largest economy

Very very strong community links in Tasmania - businesses - growing cultural understanding - leadership there that can be used

And you will have an associate director who understands that market better than anyone else in the Tasmanian government

Japan

Answer 19

4th largest market - 10 percent of students

Long-standing links with Tasmania - sister city relationships

3rd largest economy
