China News Service, July 18, According to the website of the Chinese Consulate General in Perth, since the outbreak of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, Western Australia has closed its borders and adopted entry restrictions. The state boundaries have not been opened so far. All people coming to Western Australia need to apply for exemption before entering the country. They must be quarantined for 14 days after arriving. In response to the recent severe epidemic situation in eastern Australia, Western Australia has taken stricter border control measures since July 10. According to relevant regulations, personnel from Victoria must apply for additional exemption, otherwise they will not be allowed to enter the country.
