We are happy with the government's decision to remove the cap on working hours say Nepali international students in Australia

International students have welcomed the lifting of a cap that has restricted their hours of paid work. The move is in response to the rising pressure on supply chains from the high number of staff in COVID-19 isolation. But there are fears that increased working hours could see their studies suffer, jeopardising their visas.
