Actually if you read the news reports you will see that the WA government has deferred large infrastructure projects because the state economy is too hot and there is not enough labour for all the development projects that are underway.

If these government infrastructure projects went ahead now, then this would pull workers from other projects. The Government has made the right choice to wait at least a year until the problem with the shortage of housing and the shortage of labour has subsided.

Now how many other regions in the world has that problem! I have a contact in Indonesia who is just astounded that in WA we do not wear masks, practice social lock-downs (yet), and that our state coffers for 2021-2022 will have an excess of $2.8 billion after costs. The idea of deferring expenditure because of an overheating local economy, appears (for a person living in the doldrums in Bali) to be paradise.

problems ... problems.
