(2020) If you’re on the wrong side of U.S. President Donald Trump you certainly know about it, and right now, the focus of his fury is the World Health Organisation. He accuses the W.H.O. of being China’s lapdog and says it’s responsible for helping the communist regime hide the true extent of the coronavirus disaster. As punishment Trump has withdrawn American funding to the organisation. Australia too has questions about the W.H.O., specifically what it did in China and when? By comparison with the U.S. leader though, our prime minister Scott Morrison is far more diplomatic. He wants a review of the W.H.O’s role, but he’s also proposed the health body be given additional powers, including the right to forcibly enter countries to avoid repeating the COVID-19 disaster. Liz Hayes asks the question – who exactly is the W.H.O?

Australia should use the immediate post-COVID-19 period to develop a bigger “high tech, flexible manufacturing industry,” according to former Fortescue CEO Nev Power. Manufacturing used to the bastion of the Australian economy but has declined significantly over the past fifty years. Manufacturing made up nearly 30 per cent of gross domestic product (GDP) in the 1960s, however the sector now has slumped to around six per cent of GDP as many businesses move offshore. The federal government has established the COVID-19 Coordination Commission to identify how business, including manufacturing, can thrive in a post-COVID-19 world. Mr Power, who is part of the government’s commission, told Sky News the sector must embrace”high tech, flexible manufacturing that is modern and attracts a sort of investment we need.” “In the early days, post pandemic, we will have a low dollar, disrupted supply chains which create opportunities for local manufacturing and we will have amply supply of labour from people that have been displaced from industries that will take longer to start up,” he said. I think there is an opportunity to retrain people into those roles and for us to take advantage of that time post the virus when there is that demand for local manufacturing.”

Based off the economies which recovered best after the Spanish Flu and the federal government’s massive stimulus program, Australia “could actually see a roaring twenties reproduced for the 21st century” says the Switzer Report’s Peter Switzer. Mr Switzer suggested Australia “will move into a 21st century roaring twenties after all of this” party due to the scope of the economic response, and the country’s relatively low national debt. He told Sky News host Peta Credlin if Australia is able to continue on the current health trajectory which has seen the coronavirus curve flatten “we may get out of jail a lot quicker than other economies”. “We might be rebounding stronger than other economies”.

It’s the right thing to do, but because no one can predict how long the coronavirus pandemic will last, there are other concerns that must now also be tackled. Most important is how we’re going to feed ourselves. With other countries shutting down borders and exports, the security of Australia’s food supply is paramount, but it seems to be low on the list of government priorities. The dilemma we face is highlighted in the nation’s food bowl, where bureaucrats are refusing to give farmers along the Murray River access to the water they need to grow vital crops.
