Chapter 656: The Crisis at the Car Factory

```

As expected, when the heat generated by the infrastructure program subsided, the number of immigrants in the second week dropped significantly to just under 60,000.

Although this was still good news—after all, 60,000 a week meant at least 240,000 a month, and the annual number of immigrants could even exceed 2.5 million.

But the problem was that such immigration numbers were bound to decline. If the Australasian Government didn't take any action, that would be about the extent of the immigration attracted during this economic crisis.

Population had always been Australasia's greatest weakness, and Arthur understood this well, so he couldn't miss the opportunity to increase it.

The rapid decrease in immigration numbers did not mean that Australasia's attractiveness to immigrants had waned.

In fact, given a choice, the majority of the unemployed in America and Europe would still prefer to move to Australasia.
