More than 100 new manufacturing jobs will be created in Melbourne's north

[*crikey*mate*]

Koko Black will establish its Asia-Pacific headquarters in Moreland, partly funded by a $3 million grant set up by state and federal governments and Ford Australia.

The $10.9m project also includes a manufacturing centre, research facility, visitor centre and salon.

The grant was made under the Melbourne North Innovation and Investment Fund, which encourages new job creation in Melbourne's north in response to Ford's decision to end manufacturing in Australia.

Only 1100 to make up for the assembly workers being laid off.I haven't included the component workers that will get laid off also

Only 999,900 to go Tone.

One third of people laid off when Mitsubishi stopped manufacturing are still unemployed, several years later.

So wow, 100 jobs. With a salon. Rofl.

Well I heard that the cafe down the road is looking for a casual cleaner, they aren't going to advertise yet though - they are waiting for the Prime Minister for Unemployment so he can hold a press conference.

I think you missed the underlying point to the announcement.

Ok thanks, Joe. Now I know how I can revoke some of my other accidental ones. Sometimes I accidently click kudos when all I want to do is look who gave them.
