spent in Australia, a lot of Asian countries send their young over to work and the money gets sent straight back home with nothing coming back to the economy. With the genuine backpackers we are also seeing these kids getting ripped off by regional farmers, in Bowen (QLD) there are houses that take 13 in a 3 bedroom home and they are charged $150+ a week and then food etc. on top that. Some also do not get an hourly rate but get paid by the bin etc. International travellers are a big part of our business and we are more than happy to help in anyway not to lose it.
