Business View Australia - August 2015 7
Editor’s
Note
Australia has a robust political system and an
effective bureaucracy. The press is free and
highly independent and the country’s judicial
system operates in an absolutely impartial
manner. All these factors contribute to the
nation’s ability to suitably alter its economic
and business policies to address the chang-
ing environment.
In the current month’s issue of Business View
Magazine Australia, we examine the working
of several institutions that play a part in mak-
ing the country’s economic and business poli-
cies resilient and in line with what is required.
These associations encompass a wide range
of areas and each of them plays an important
role in highlighting issues which are of rele-
vance to their respective sectors.
The Australian mining industry is currently go-
ing through a tough phase and the Mineral In-
dustry Consultants Association Inc. is playing
a vital role in contributing to its revival. The
country’s health sector is a large part of the
economy and an article in this issue exam-
ines the Public Health Association of Austra-
lia’s functioning and the crucial part it plays.
The country’s beef industry is famous for its
quality and our discussions with The Angus
Society of Australia reveal the high quality
standards prevalent amongst farmers and
other organisations connected with beef pro-
duction. This issue also reviews the value,
which The Chartered Institute of Logistics
and Transport Australia Incorporated, adds
to the movement of goods within and outside
the country.
Australian cities are famous for having excel-
lent infrastructure and this is due in large part
to the inputs that the Urban Development In-
stitute of Australia has made over the years.
Our in-depth article delves into the organisa-
tion’s functioning.
This month the magazine explores the busi-
ness practices followed by several highly suc-
cessful and well-run commercial enterprises.
The Australian Aged Care Group Pty Ltd is a
high-end provider of aged care facilities and
is recognised nation-wide for its excellent in-
frastructure and highly trained staff. We also
look at Hall & Prior Health & Aged Care Group,
a large and remarkably well-run organisation.
Mount Hospital is a leader in specialist health
services and a pioneer in providing patient
care which is analysed in this section of the
magazine.
The environment and its preservation is rightly
getting greater attention and two companies
which are working in this area are Australian
Groundwater Technologies and Empyreal En-
ergy International. Both companies are mak-
ing important contributions to the reduction
in global warming.
This issue also reviews the functioning of
Clancy Corporation, the foremost electrical,
air conditioning, refrigeration, and signage
company in the Mount Isa area. Further, two
very successful companies in the construc-
tion space, Onesector Pty Ltd and Universal
Constructions are reviewed in this issue.
Finally, there are stories on two very large or-
ganisations, BHP Billiton Ltd, the world’s big-
gest mining company and National Australia
Bank, the country’s premier financial institu-
tion.
As always, we look forward to your feedback
and inputs.
With best wishes,
